Abdication is a novelty in

US of the decheanco at Paris,
after the capture of the en-
peror and his army at Sadan.
The one and the other were
the impulsive work of the peo-
pie, acting for their own safety,
against a government that
brought them disaster. The
people of Louisiana now have,
as the people of France then
had, their affairs in their own
hands and all that their
brethren of other states can do
is to wish them order and
peace.

- The opinions of the Northern
press on the uprising against the
Kellogg usurpation. in this State may
be easily summarized. The indie
pendent journals agree that while
tie complaints of our people are all
faanded on truth, yet the revolution
80 have resorted to is unjustifiabie
and unwise, since the only logical
courae for the Government to pursue
de- to sdfnstate Kellogg. The less par
tisaa of the Republican Journals
haAnae Congress for the whole trouble,
and ny the President must sustain
KallQgg; but the greater portion of
the party press condemn our uprising
a. an indication of the old rel,ellious
spirit. and hence as proof of the me-
cesaitv ofkeeping the party in power
ftl the warts completely ended. The
Damocratic journals charge the
whole trouble TO the Administration,
ard denounce the support of the
Kallsgg usurpation as an outrage
upon Republican institutions.

A Splendid Exhibition Of Character.

From the Mobile Ecgister.l
The people of the South are
without doubt the most patient
people ppon the face OF the globe.
A popular revolution in Paris is
always attended by the most re-
voting scenes of retrlbutive JUS
:ice as we'll as of brutal injustice.
Monuments are overthrown, Arch
bishops are slaughtered in cold
blood, dwellings are burned by
infurated women, and the cutters
run with gore. In England We.
have seen Jeifreys dragged
through the streets with a rope
about his neck, and suspected
criminals like Fawkes and Oates
hurried to the block with short
slrift. In the coup d'etats Of the
Napoleon we have seen the high.
est nagnates incareerated and
executed without trial, and the
populace shot down numerically
with grape andcanister. In Spain
we see to-day the adherants of
Serrano and Don Corlas alternate
ly massacred upon the streets of
the towns and villages which pass
snccessively under the the rule Of
either combatant. AL over the
world the rise Of people against
tyrants has been marked with
those hideons scenes which dis
grace humanity. g9
In New Orleans the other day
we saw q spectacle III marked con.
trast to this universal history of
mankind. A people who have
been oppressed and plunder-
ed for ten years, aud who,
having at last selected their own
rulers, have been doomed for two
years longer to see nsnrpers' 0ccu.

setting at defiance all the laws oi

majesty and overthrow the des.

ing more to lose except life itself,
may well choose to perish in a
last sharp contest, rather than to
struggle on in the misery and des-
pair which their oppressors alone
offer them. y
It is certain that this rising
would be speedily successful, and
would result in the wholesale ex-
pulsion of the usurpers and rob-
bers beyond the boundaries of
Louisiana, but for the new inter
vention of Federal troops, which
of course will not be DELAYED.
Grant is under a fatal necessity.

From the New York Tribune. l6thl

From the New York Tribune, l6th.l
A hopeless revolt is a crime
against humanity, and whatever
may be the abstract merits of the
cause for which Acting Governor
Penn and his associates have been
fighting at New Orleans, it is i'm
possible with the information thus
far in our possession to acquit
them of reckless and wicked
sacrifice of life. There has never
been one CLEAN Of hope for tlfeir
success. Behind Kellogg and his
armed police stands the Whole
force 0fs tliBs Uiiited States Gov
ernment, and no reasonable being
could .dQubte that. the. Federal
troops would be used without
delay or remorse to crush this
insrrreetion against the villianous
adventurers who have usurped
the control of the State Of Louisi-
ana. The President long ago de-
cided which of the two parties Ire
should recognize as legitimate,
and he has made it plain that he
shrinks from none of the c0nse-
quences Of his unfortunate and
unjust decision, The new admin
istration established yesterday by
Lieutenant Governor Penn will
almost certainly be eyerthrown
before the end of the week by
President Grant and Major Gen
eral Emery; and what will the
honest people of Louisiana have
gained by their brief and bloody
revolution !?
But let us be just to these uni
fortunate and sorely tried citizens
even while we blame them. They
have set forth their grievances
both in an address to the public
and q respectful, even deprecato-
ry, letter to the President, aud
every word of their complaint is
true. This is a free representa-
tive government, yet it is an un-
deniable truth that the people OF
Louisiana are living under an alb
SOlute despotism. For them the
ballot has no meaning and the
courts have nc power. No rea-
sonable man doubts that at the
last election McEnery and Penn
we're fairly chosen Governor and
Lieutenant Governor Of the State,
but that Kellogg seized the reins
of power by fraud aud force, and
installed a pretened Legislature
of his own by the use of the Fed
eral bayonets. Against this capi.
tai outrage what remedy had the
citizens of Louisiana? Should
they go to the courts 7 The
Judges were partners in the
crime. Should they appeal to the
Legislature! It was dispersed,
and tue conspirators made laws
in its place. They complained to
the President and he denied them
even a hearing. They went be-
fore Congress, and Congress or
dered an investigation, ascertain
ed that the charges Of usurpation
were all true, listened to a terri.
BILE denunciation of the usurpers
and al eloquent plea for justice
from the lips Of Senator Carpen-
ter, and then-did nothing. Nor
was this all. During these two
years while the citizens had borne
every imaginable wrong, and
watched the State sinking day by
day into lower depths Of disor-
ganization and bankruptcy, they
had still the hope that the next
election, in due course of law,
might enable them to 0verturn
this iniquiteus administration.
But of late Kellogg has destroyed
even this last hope. His rascally
