ORGANIZED OPPOSITION TO LAW.

If all the events of the past campaign
were compiled it will be seen that there
has been conspiracy by which the Offices
of the State and city were to be captured
by force and by intimidation. All that
contributions Of money. talent skilled
in political warfare and terror of timid op-
ponents could do were employed to carry
the object. AL active and abusive press
has been employed to diffuse throughout
society, defamation of every Republican
man and every Republican act. To col
solidate this political conspiracy two
agencies have been employed:
/. A commercial and industrial desti-
tuition exists, which fills our streets with
unemployed men and Expresses the wo-
men and children with the want of food
and fuel. This has been seized and
charged to the Republican State govern.
ment.
2. A Democratic administration has
been in possession Of the city govern
ment. The wages and purchases Of this
administration are paid in the deprecated
mediums Of certificates. All in any man
ner connected with this employment, or
holding its evidences Of Indebtedness have
been told that to eyict the Governor of
the State would relieve the embarrass-
ments OF the city. Thousands of the i'm
poverished men were told that if they
would by torchight professions Or bar
ricades defeat the Republicans in the
election that each one Of them would re-
ceive position and salary. = We are
satisfied that these men have been dis
abused of this error, and that they could
not now be banded and marched to over

THE FREEDMAN's SAVINGS BANK.

The badly managed banking institution
known as the Freedman's Savings Bank,
and which had branch institutions in va
rious parts of the country, all reporting to
the central bank at Washington, collapsed,
as is we'll known. more than o year since.
It was managed by men with the best of
intentions, but Of insufficient financial ca
pacity to conduct banking business.
Bad loans were made, and inadequate
securities were taken. The failure is due
to the management Of the central bank.
but it affected every branch bank, and the
hard earnings Of the poor depositors were
seouestered to cover the errors Of bad
managers.
Congress appointed committee to
wind up the affairs of the bank, but they
are making unsatisfactory progress, and
it is apparent that other measures Of re-
lief must be taken. II is rumored that q
bill will be introduced, directing the COM
missioners to bring suit against the
trustees, with view to holding them per-
sonally responsible for the full amount Of
deposits. OF what avail such action will
prove remains to be seen. 1t is certain
the depositors have been robbed, and they
naturally look to some one for redress.
In this connection it should be stated
that the managers of the branch bank in
this city were strictly honest in action and
intention. The branch here was estab-
lished in June, 1866, under the direction
of Mr.. C. S. Sauvinet; he was in turn
relieved by Mr.. G. D. Sturtevant in June,
1871, and not dollar Of the funds Of the
bank was ever lost by their investments.
The branch here has had as many as 1890
open accounts at enc time, and money on
deposit to the amount of $3.50, 600; the
more is the pity, for the surplus here was
always drawn by the central bank, and

shall be entitled to certain rights Of use
in the public establishments Of comfort,
amusement and instruction, ''as enumer-
ated in the text The substitute provides
that 'there shall be no obligation to pro-
vide mixed accommodations at such
places, nor to prohibit separate accom-.
modations for persons Of different races,
such accommodations being as good for
one class or race as for another" It also
provides that sfhere shall be no obligation
to provide mixed accommodations al
common schools and other institutions Of
learning, nor shall there be any prohibi-
ton of separate schools and institutions.
such separate schools being as good for
the one class or race as for another"
The reader will see that in few words
the civil rights bill will authorize separate
accommodations for race and color, the
facilities for each being Of equal quality.
Thus there may be two separate schools
for teaching the Latin language to pupils
of the two races. Each school shall be
equal in every respect to the other. It
would be necessary to start two sepa-
rate stage coaches or cars, with two
equally good teams and carriages.
This question Of equal and separate So
cial facilities presents perhaps more diff
culties in Louisiana than elsewhere, and
requires proportionate prudence in its
discussion and decision. We will, how
ever, confne its consideration at present
to the compulsory union'of the two races
in the schools. This has been perpetual,
source of evaporation, and prolific ex
cuse for abuse, and has no doubt operated
greatly to promote the opposition to the
extended right Of suffrage. Certain impor-
tant political principles have been asserted
in the constitutional amendments. Upon
these the Republican party is a unit.
There is an assertion of certain social
rights. In regard to this last the Repub-
lican party is divided, while the opposition,
which aims at the overthrow of both the
admitted principle and the controverted
right, is in solid and compact resistance.
