Monday last was very inclement day, and
there was but small attendance of people in
town from the country. The only land sold

order of the Judge of Probate, which was
bought by James White at s5.75 per acre.
The notes and accounts due to the firm Of AL
lison & Bratton were sold by the Sheriff, un-
der sundry writs of feri tacias, and brought
in the aggregate $3.50.

OUR RADICAL PEDAG0GUES.

Since the disastrous overthrow OF tneil
party at the last election, several OF tue inoS'
prominent Radical editors Of the North ana
West have assumed the position OF volunteer
guides, philosophers and friends 10 'he Denio-
cratic party. Affecting to beheve 'ha' ~
leaders of that party are Bourbons OF the
most antediiuyian type, they utter solemn
warnings against the repeal OF the 1oufteenth
and fifteenth amendments. and protest N adj
vance against compensation to former slave
owners the refunding OF the cotton tax, ana
other remedial measures for the South, by
the General Government, ali of which meas
ures, they profess to apprehend, would be the
immediate offshoot OF Democratic ascendancy
in the future.
We presume our Democratic friends ap-
preciate at its proper value the disinterested
advice of such sympathizing sheets as Har-
pars Weekly, the Chicago Tribune or the New
York Republic; and we have no doubt that the
managers Of these various organs OF Grantism
know Just as well as we do that not solitary
Demo :lat of any weight or influence has the
slightest idea of reviving such dead issues, or
of attempting to nullify by future legislation
or constitutional tinkering the now universally
accepted settlement Of the happily buried
question Of African slavery.
That the constitutional amendments were
hastily and irregularly adopted, and that they
worked great injustice to innocent parties are
facts which few candid men will undertake to
deny; but beyond this assertion, no sane
Southern statesman has ever dreamed Of trav-
cling The deed is done, and it is OF no use
to waste tears about it; but even should the
questions ever be presented to the Southern
people alone, we venture to say that not one OF
the above named measures could muster cor
porals guard in any Of the late slave-holding
communities. The explanation Of this fact is
obvious. The parties whose pecuniary interest
would be benefited by national compensa-
ton for their slaves and chattels or their
cotton, do not constitute One-tgentieth part
Of the entire population Of the South,
and the idea that nineteen. wenteths OF that
universally Impoverished population would
consent to tax themselves and their posterity
for the exclusive benefit OF, perhaps, one hum
dred thousand persons all told, is SO ludicrous-
ly absurd that none but arrant political knaves
can pretend to believe in it, and none but ir-
reclai,nable idiots or crazy fanatics can be per-
suaded to accept it as one Of the possibilities
of the future.
To such counsellors as Messrs. Medill and
Curtis, we simply reply, as the wary Trojan
did to the cunning Greek: " 7inea Da'aos ct
tlO,,d feJeates."

THE OLD PIPER HEIDSlECK.

Among wine-bibbers the Piper HeldslecK
Champagne stands alone. It has flavor a
boquet sparkling beauty and exhilaratlns
characteristic which no other brand OF CHAM
payne has ever equaled and hence it is among
wines what real Murillo is among paintings
Of inferior merit, or an Havana cigar is to home
manufactured article. To the palate of the bon
Grant it has flavor which is quite unmistaka-
bic, and is highly esteemed for its dryness and
lightness. But We do not propose just now to
discant upon the peculiar merits OF this world
renowned wine, what we meant to do was to
announce that Messrs. Schmidt Il Ziegler,
Nos. 40, 81. 50 and 80 New Levee street, have
accepted the agency therefor, and are now
prepared to furnished the trade with it on the
most liberal terms. They have just received
five hundred baskets, and will constantly re-
ceive supplies The fact that Messrs. Schmidt
& Ziegler have taken hold of this wine is sui
ficient to insure it largely increased sales.
Abiding to the assembly of the knights
Templar from all sections of the country in
New Orleans, the Galveston Mercury, of
Thursday, makes the following pertinent re-
marks:
The visit Of SO many brethren, holding
widely different views on politics, finance, and
the hundred other questions now agitating
public mind, to a city which recently was con-
vulsed with revolution, is one OF the most
wonderful events OF this era. That they will
carry to their Northern, Eastern and Western
homes kindly memories Of the hospitality so
generously rendered them, there to treasure
them up, is but natural. The South has been
falsiied by paid scribblers since and before
the war.
Until very recently the Northern press was
used by these bad men as a convenient agency
to disseminate their SANDERS. Now, cheap
railroad travel has changed the whole social
character Of the country. Men from New
York think but little of a journey to Louisiana
or Texas, when the trip can be made in
palace drawing room car, that is as comtorta-
BILE as an easy chair in their own dom!cils.
They come and see for themselves, and when
lyiag correspondents draw on their imagina-
tons for tales of blood, they contradict them.
Masonry has done much to benefit mankind.
1t is eminently proper that it shou d, at this
iuncture in the atf.lirs Of Louisiana, by the
presence of the most eminent men IN the
Order, practically deny the assertion that any
strangers life was endangered who put his
foot on Louisiana SOIL
