THE STATE CAPITAL,

The efforts of certain Republicans to
locate the State capital in this city per-
manently meets with the same disfavor
that has been shown to every project pro-
posed for the advancement of this city
since the Republican party came into
power. When it was proposed to have a
railroad between here and Mobile the en-
terprise was denounced by the opponents
Of Republican State administration as
not only impracticable, but as huge
scheme to defraud the State. When time
had verified the falsity Of these assertions,
the opponents of Republican progress next
sought to discourage the building of the
road between here and Houston. That
was denounced as another swindle and a
Republican Legislature charged with
bribery whether correctly or not we can
not pretend to say-for having granted
State aid in the shape of bonds to secure the
building of the road. After the first section
of the road had been built to Donaldson
vile, and the company, composed of North
ern capitalists, had spent millions of dol
lars on the works and it became necessary
to use the bonds OF the State to raise money
tocomplete the road to Houston. these same
opponents of Republican administration
in Louisiana, all of them citizens of this
city, again interposed their opposition to
the enterprise and finally succeeded in de-
stroying the value of the bonds, which re-
suited in an abandonment of the work.
This has proved fatal blow to New Or
leans, inasmuch as railroads from st.
Louis and other Western cities have been
made to connect with Texas, some of
them running through the business heart
of that great State to the city
of Galveston, thus diverting from New
Orleans large amount of her most valu-
able trade. But what did the opponents
Of Republican enterprise care for this, so
long as they had the satisfaction Of know
ing that they were powerful enough to de-
feat it? That was more glory to them than
the building of dozen railroads to New
Orleans. The growth of trade and popu.
lation here was as nothing compared with
the satisfaction they experienced at being
able to defeat Republican enterprise.
And now they are endeavoring TO de-
feat another project instituted for the
benefit of New Orleans-that of locating
the seat of government permanently here
by the renting of State House for a
term of years at a less price than is now
being paid by the State for the necessary
public offices of its State officers-the
same to become the property Of the State
without further cost at the end of the
lease. This we understand to be the con-
ditious of the contract entered into by the
board of State House commissioners and
the New Orleans Building Association,
and under that contract the Build
ing Association are now making
the necessary changes in the st.
Louis Hotel-purchased for the pur-
pose-with the view of making it suitable
for State House. It is estimated thatit
will cost that association one hundred
thousand dollars to do the necessary work

GOVERNOR KHLLOaVs LETTER TO THE

PRESS.
Governor Kellogg has thought proper
to address q letter to the Picayune and
Times in reply to paragraph which re-
Gently appeared in the latter, referring to
the oft reiterated charge against the ex-
ecutive Of having improvidently used his
pardoning power. The Governors letter
is temperate in tone, clear in. statement,
and reasonable in deduction. We have
observed, before his reference to the fact,
that there has been no evidence whatever
to connect any Of the pardoned persons
with the crimes which have been reported
SO freely and boisterously of late. Nothing
but barefaced assertion, therefore, lies
against the released convicts. Yet they
may be guilty of some breaches Of law.
But if so those who are SO ready to make
charges and accusations should be ready
with their proofs. 1t strikes US that there
has been no small amount of robbing
going on to the credit of these unfortunate
helpless wretches of which the putative
principals have no knowledge. Their
we'll known ina bility to defend themselves
should protect them from injustice such
as unfounded charges, not only upon the
score of fair dealing, but for far more
impo rtant reason. If the public and the
authorities can be misled into supposing
that the fifteen or sixteen persons for this
parish who have been pardoned by the
Governor during the past year and half
solely to bla me for all the violations of
the police laws, suspicion against the
more elegant rascals here at home, who
have never been convicted, will be lulled
and thus the real perpetrators escape in
the hue and cry raised on the false trail.
But the Governor, fortunately, sees
further into this matter than our sensa-
ton mongers suppose. He perceives
that it is not alone the pursuit Of the
ticket-of-leave men, not solely the public
good that inspires those who make false
accusations against the administration,
the police, and every barrier the laws have
erected to protect society. Men who,
"having nothing to lose and much they
hope to gain, care not how far the ma
terial interests and good fame of city or
State may suffer, provided their own self
ish interests are subserved" Such men
are infinitely worse pests than the poor
Migrants about whom they pirate so loudly.
The one aims at revolution, the other is
satisfied with the pitiful sum Of eighty
cents pilfered from the safe of a prosper
GUS newspaper whose appearance led the
deluded rogue to expect better results.
The Governor speaks the undoubted
sentiment of this community when he
declares the day of riots has passed.
There was time, perhaps, when the Re-
publican party, few in numbers and weak
in wealth and influence, could have been
stamped out much more easily than it
can be now. Time has brought it
strength, while its would-be stampers are
correspondingly weakened. To-day no
one is much frightened. The Repub
licans will not harm or Cypress any one.
Their enemies can not. The recent at
tempt to prev a disturbance has already
fallen still-born for want Of support.
And as the administration is just to all,
it commands the confidence Of all,

The REPUBLICAN declined to publish
General Badgers card in reply to an at
tack upon him in the Bulletin because we
did not wish to assist him in magnifying
very small matter into one Of some i'm
port. We respect and esteem the Cen
eral; all right thinking men in this COM
munity regard him as the right man in the
right place, and regret that he should
have taken any notice of the article that
called forth his card. General Badgers
character is too high and well established
to be touched by sensational political dia-
tribes.

ATTRACTIVE INDUCEMENTS

Inc Itcaynfe says.
New Orleans is in the hands Of an organ
lied body of burglars and assassins. Our
houses are the prey of thieves, our lives are
at the mercy of assassins, and not ever the
crumbs of the Radical orgie reach US.
This is an attractive picture, and we
are surprised that the whole world does
not rush with its numbers and its capital
to engage the advantage thus set forth.
Perhaps the only sincere expression Of
regret in the paragraphs quoted are to be
found in the concern about the ''crumbs. -
What sort of orgies those are no one can
imagine, as the burglars, assassins and
thieves most probably belong to the
majority. The Pic should apply for par
ticipation in the spoils and orgies to the
robbers rather than to the Republicans.

THE WINGDAM OBSTRUCTION

Ouo VI QUE 0uSluccIS WHO udS Uotu CGA-
vinced that the wingdams are better than
canal, spoke with ridicule of the idea
that the wingdams of Eads would cause
rehuent water. This gentleman is, we be-
lieve, rather distinguished as dry land
engineer than as hydraulist. Major
Howell, United States engineers, who has
passed the past five years in dredging the
Mississippi mouth, and in surveying and
sounding the canal, asserts that the wing
dams will obstruct and dam up the chan
mel of the river, and so tend to cause over
flow Of Plaquemines parish, our chief
field Of sugar and rice. In this he is also
sustained by Albert Stein, whose specially
is hydraulics. The railroad engineer
pooh! poohs! these authorities, substitut-
! ing that of foreigners who never saw the
Balize in their lives.
We have explained that to make a wing
dam of wood would be eaten by the worms
or washed DIP by the river. That street Of
concrete from thirty to sixty feet on each
side of the channel would undermine and
tumble in; would fill the channel with
blocks of concrete as big as a meeting
house. That these blocks, so tumbling in,
would make obstacles far worse than
those in He'll Gate, New York. That Eads,
being an Inherent adventurer, and by no
means immortal, if his work did not sue
coed, could not be compelled to take those
big blocks out again. 1t would follow,
that with the obstruction to navigation
which compels our boats to land their
upper river freights below the bridge.
and drag them around, we should have
obstruction No. /. That with the build
ing Of two sides of street with concrete
walls, from thirty to sixty feet high, We
should have obstruction No. 2.
In such case the distinguished pro-
jector of these distractions may 60 back
to Scotland, renew his allegiance to the
crown of Great Britain-if he has ever
lost it by American naturalization-and
enjoy the honors and incidental ad7an-
tages Of having destroyed the navigation
of the Mississippi river in perpetuity to
the railroads Of the East. These results
are far more possible than that the mer-
chants and property-holders Of New Or
leans have been bribed by gift Of
Alligator City town lots to recommend q
work which they have for forty years ad-
vocated as indispensable to maintain the
values Of the property and business which
they already possess.
