NEW ORLEANS REPUBLICAN, SUNDAY AUGUST 9, 1874

have been the sole protector Of the South
ern people. The Southern and seeding
States upon whom the weight of war fell
heavily fear the horrible hypocrisy Of the
Northern States rights Democracy and
have declined ever to recognize them
again. Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia,
who know the Northern Democracy to be
one great Tweed, have confined them
selves to recognizing their fortunes,
shattered by Democratic States rights
batteries and battalions in great part.
These States are convinced that their
State rights Democrats are the party who
"sold the South" into war and its conse-
quences. Those States depend on no
such champion to fight their battles, if
they had any to fight. They know that
the Democratic Tweeds of New York
would sell an ally as quick as they would
sell an Office or a contract, and prefer re-
lying upon their own ability and resources.
Is Louisiana less sensible than those
States? Is she more willing to forget
shameful desertion when prospect offers
for share to result from great national
capture of all the spoils Of the Union?
We think better of Louisiana. Let DEM
ocratic partisans endeavor to use an organ
ization made for the purpose of protecting
the character, credit and good order of
the State into a bill sticker for the State
rights Democracy if they choose. There
are thousands who acknowledge no such
allegiance to the party which "sold the
South" into subjugation. L. b.

This is an original American story, one

when in reality it deals with events that
might all, and many did. occur. Mr.. I'm

swallowed by the Italian Cepriani, this

from committing suicide. Those persons
DESTROYS of making noise in the world by
swallowing forks would do we'll. therefore,
to select pure silver or the best Birmingham
