COLONEL foRNEY liasa notable leader
In MOnday's Philadelphia Press, which
Is claimed Ia possess more than 0rdl-
nary Significance, from the fact that
the editor has recently had several In
teryiews with The president. a.
Tho article boBllR BY reference 10
tho Arkansas matter. II says TINT he
president satisfies the people there, but
blends his friends here, and II then
goes intoa discussion OF southern af-
fairs. After describing the bad gov
eminent IN South Carolina, the troubles
la Louisiana, etc, II says;
"fhe peril Of the south Is felt In tho
north; sympathy for the suilerings Of
the southern people begins TO bo com
mon to all parties. We know how the
republicans Of the old freestates regard
the situation, and we can readily an
tlclpate where II must end, unless
speedy rescue Is found
II then claims that the key note IL
sounded in the presidents decision,
and asks II there Is no way TO apply the
spirit Of this action to Louisiana aud
South Carolina. IL declares Grant must
take the bold Initiative, aud adds:
at may seem to be q sacrifice, and
yet, boldly seized, theopportunlty may
be Il salvation. An appeal TO congress
would be aiust alternative. The crslsn
the south does moi affect one race, but
both T; not only one section, but all,
and TO meet and master II all politics
and pnrtisans should be boldly and
summarily set aside. The country cer-
tainly would be honored by the at.
tompt'of the republican party, and one
man would be gratefully remembered
President Grant. Every honest man
regards affairs in the south with dire
torebodings, and feels the shadow of II
projecting Into his own disc.n
''lt Is for a republican president"
the Press concludes, ito cut the gor-
dian knot by one bold and determined
effort for the relief of the whole south
aud once more save his country anC
his party. His powers are vast; th,
craftsmanship to help him ought to bt
equally vast. Where there Is much
authority, there ought TO be much gen
ius. Perhaps all that Is needed h
moral courage, ana that ought not Il
be wanting IN citizen who broke
down the rebellion and forgave tn,
very leaders he had conquered"

To MEET with On old cherished friend
is always pleasant, and this pleasure
we have enjoyed in meeting in Dallas
the Hon. Franklin B. Saxton, formerly
of San Augustine, nowof Marshall,w who
was member of the confederate con-
gress from east Texas. Long ago,
among Texans,sthe name of Frank
Saxton was synonymous with honor
and ability. After thirteen years sepa-
ration, we meet him as the same en-
bodiment OF honor and chiyalry. The
old and new people of Dallas honor all
such men, and pray that their last
may be Their. best and happiest days.

hero Of San Jacinto, was received by
the old Texas, veteran association at

dollars per head on every man, woman

hearted girl named Miss Nellie Col

them and taken compassion upon the
strangers. She not only gave up her
humble little room to tho party, but
procured them food and provided for
them to the extent of her scanty means

THE WHITE LEAGUE. Radical pa.
pers and Radical leaders have zHs1siit
their special business to hssp vitupera-
tion upon the Louisiana Organization
known as the White League. Lately
they have given wide circulation to the
assertion that the organization intend
ed to interfere with the Returning
Board in the discharge Of its duties;
that the members of the Board were
personally in danger. The intention
OF these ISLANDERS is clearly to justify
further Interference on the part of the
Administration with the local sffairs of
che State. But these slanders have
been promptly met, and the true OBJ
jects OF the League put fairly and
squareIy before the world. A large
meeting of the Crescent City White
League was hold in New Orleans, last
Tuesday night, at which resolutions
were adopted setting forth the real in
tent of tho organization, and repelling
slanderous statements made by the
Radical press. The resolutions are as
follows:
Whereas, through the correspond.
ents OF part of the Northern press.
and by false and hagitious statements
in the Radical press of Now Orleans,
and by lying and slanderous assertions
on the part of the members of the Re-
turning Board, it is sought to create
the belief that the Returning Board is
threatened with violence in the dis
charge OF its functions. and that the
White League has connived at and
counselled such violence; and whereas,
the real intent Of this organized mig
knks ~,
tention from the frauds aud forgeries
OF the Returning Board, or to furnish
plausible excuse to the Returning
Board for abandoning the canvass at
point where q partial p,omuIgation of
the returns of the late election would
give . Radical majority in the next
State election, or to invite the inter-
position of the Federal Executive, and
under the plea of furnishing protection
to the Returning Board, secure the
presence and aid of Federal troops at
the State House. in repeating the out
rage Of 1872, and impanneling Legis-
lature not representative of the people,
to the end that the present fraudulent
and uprising government may be per-
petuated, and Louisiana be still held
under Radical subsection,
Res0lred, That, Infamous as are the
outrages already committed and still
designed to be perpetuated against the
rights and Liberties of tho people by
the Returning Board. the White
League. believing that the dearest in
terests of Louisiana are involved in
keeping the peace at this juncture,
will continue to maintain the public
order, and brands as false any asser-
tion to the contrary, come from what
source it may.
Resolre,l. That the above resolutions
be published in the Conservative
papers of New Orleans, and that the
Conservative press of the entire coun-
try is earnestly invited and urged to
give the widest circulation to this our
solemn a6severation.
