those parishes and localities where the
citizens misbehave in the future. The
rietous tendencies of some OF the interior
constituencies have cost this State
one way or onother a sum equal to
years revenue during the rast three OF
four years, and the good people have been
taxed equally with the bad to pay the
costs. The Senate has proposed an ade-
quate remedy, by which innocent people
will be exempt from penalties they had
no agency In mourning, and no longer
made responsible for pranks they had no
means OF preventing. Senators Barber,
Blunt, Brewster, Burch, Greene, Craw-
ford and Twichell, nearly all of whom
represent country constituencies, urged
the passage of the bill, as necessary
check upon bad men, or, at least, as
means of making it to the interest of men
of wealth, who have heretofore encouraged
outlawry and harbored assassins, to dis
continue such proceedings in future
There is little question but that the
House will concur in the suggestion of
the Senate.
The bill, it will be seen, belongs to that
class of legislation which seriously affects
the wicked only, while it is not likely
ever to be invoked against the unofend-
ing. We can not conceive what good rea-
sons Senators Thomas and Daigle could
have for opposing such wise and just
measure, for these gentlemen are as much
interested in the preservation of peace in
their respective neighborhoods as Senators
Brewster, Crawford and others are in
theirs. And, besides, its success will re-
lieve their constituents from the burdens
of contributing to defray expenses in

AMERICAN DOCTRINE.

We are sorry to offend the stout advo
Gates of Gallo ideas, and European no.
tions, generally. But the REPUBLICAN is
SO firmly attached to American principles
that it can not help preferring them to the
imported article. We revere that beneficent
provision of our laws which admits the
| German, the Englishman, the Frenchman,
| tn e lrlshman and the natives of any and
every country to an equality with the ma
| tive born. But we do not find it nomin-
at ed in the bond that We are compelled to
| a dept their Old World IDEAS at the same
time. And as we have the right of free
speech and free discussion, we exercise it
against the visionary schemes of the Gaul
as well as against the anti. Democratic
suggestions of the morarchist.
Perhaps we are wrong and our neigh
or, the Ficayesne, is right, but We sin
cerely believe American political institu-
tons are superior to European, and claim
the right to say so. When we find Mr.
Janin, or anybody else writing letters
from Washington to urge Americans to
adopt French notions, We shall treat him
as a Frenchman, regardless Of his place
OF nativity. We do not care for Mr..
Janin specially, one way or another. He
is personally a stranger to us. At least
the author of the political manifesto re-
ferred to is, but we recognize his senti-
ments as those belonging to a class of de-
cidedly un-American people who have
sought an asylum in Louisiana from the !;
expressions of the Old World. Itsometimes |
takes more than one generation to make a |
true American of a foreigner, while others
fall into the proper habits Of thought
the first year Of their residence. There
are Europeans who are true republicans
Americans in fact, long before they are
favored with sight Of our shores, while
in other cases a hereditary bigotry and
ignorance is transmitted down from father
to son to the third and fourth generation.

to publish it in fnll, or give sensible
epitome Of what the Senator from Indiana
said
hasty glance at this speech will sat
isfy any one of the truth Of the old adage
that falsehood flies while truth creeps
apace. For we find in it the emphatic
declaration that the Republican party Of
this State has been shemefully slandered
and illuminated throughout the land"
And he told the Senate, too,, that the
parties who were spreading the injurious
| calumnies abroad are the self-same who
either cheated us at the election in 1872,
or aided, abetted and employed those who
did. We hardly needed this able effort Of
Senator Morton to yindicate our party,
for we believe the force Of the opposition
was broken when the ingenious Carpenter
failed to find anything better than his
own rejected report upon which to base an
argument, and came to the very lame
conclusion that no remedy remained ex-
cept highly revolutionary proceeding on
the part Of Congress. SO long as the
Senator confined himself to structures
upon the conduct OF some Of our politi-
clans, he was really interesting and enter
tanning; and when he attempted to pre-
scribe for the woes be had pictured in
glowing, exaggerated colors, he became
commonplace and prosy. He wound up
with the chronic cry Of Governor War
moth, the Picay,Uae, and tie committees
maintained at Washington in the Fusion
interest. He demands a new election, but i
Morton tells us it is demand really for |
more blood. He ignores our Supreme !
Court, which Morton tells him is COM
posed of gentlemen whom he would be |
proud to know.
We believe this speech will close gu.
the question as to disturbing this State il
the peaceful enjoyment Of its political lib
erty. There was running discussion
which followed, but none seemed to be |
anxious to put in an appearance in the
ring that contained two such political
athletes as Carpenter and Morton, with
perhaps the ADLER man of the two placed
lorS du combat. Mr.. Stewart, of Nevada,
attempted to explain that a government
placed in power by estimates could not be
epublican in form, but somehow he
allied to explain exactly what he was

Ill. There may perhaps be a half dozen
n SO speeches offered on the subject in
