ATTEMPTED OUTRAGE UPON SENATOR
BLOUNT.

Passengers recently arrived from Red
river inform us that the Bart Able, when
coming down, was boarded by party OF
men at one of the points for the purpose
of taking Senator Blunt, who was one OF
the passengers on shore. Luckily, gen.
tleman on board heard of the intent to
abduct tie Senator in time to ring the
steamers bell, whereupon the would-be
abductors fastened ashore, as they did
not wish to be carried of. So the Senator
escaped probable rough treatment through
the kindness of planter who accidentally
heard of contemplated plot and had
presence of mind enough to defeat the
plotters. The officers Of the boat, as we
learn, do not approve of such acts, but
are so peculiarly situated that their hands
are as good as tied, and they fear to take
those measures to protect their passengers
which that great common carrier, the
Pacific Railroad Company, does in cross
ing the plains infested with hostile In
dams.
No disgrace ever befell this or any other
State in the Union greater than this An
American citizen, against whose private
character not word Of reproach can be
uttered, is not permitted to travel from
one parish to another in his native State
without rendering himself liable to ambus-
- III sD1o And ~ &c
not for anything he has done that is wrong,
or refuses to do that maybe lawfully de-
manded of him. He has been furnished
by nature with a black skin, and clothed
by his fellow-citizens with the right to
vote As he refuses to surrender his lib
erty and manhood at the behest OF those
who are seeking his vote as stepping
stone to public Office, a petty warfare is
waged against him. When he complains
to the authorities, his assailants are gone
fed to place of safety to avoid arrest.
They have no fear of any other punish
ment. If he arms himself in his defense,
a hue and cry is raised that he is about to
murder all the men innocent chickens)
and seize all the movables
There is way to put stop to this
system Of marrying the colored people. 1t
is too great and serious an evil to be per-
mitted to run unchecked. The surest and
most proper way is in general condem-
nation Of it by the really honorable men
who, though they do not approve it, are
too timid to interfere. But the danger is
greater, though remote, perhaps, to let
such bad practices obtain. Retribution
invariably follows the violation of proper
laws, and it sometimes assumes severity
out of proportion to the offsnse. History
is full of instances of abuses begetting
others more intolerable than those they
were organized to cure, and New Orleans
presents no exception to the rule. For
every wrong there is an appropriate re-
medy, which must at last be applied,
unless the evil sooner corrects itself.

THE E.EGIsEATURE.

The special session of the legisla-
ture closed Tuesday at 10 o'clock A.
n. Two laws were passed for the
relief of the people. The first pro-
vides for the issue by the state of
$4,000 in bonds to be sold at not
less than ninety-five cents on the
dollar, to be used in purchasing the
bonds of certain counties men,
toned in the bill, being the coun-
ties that are admittedly unable to
provide for their own destitute, at a
similar price. The other is gen.
eral enactment and provides that
every county in the state, for the
specific purpose of relieving it's des-
titute. shall be authorized to vote
bonds to the amount of one-half of
one per cent. of its assessed valua-
ton, with the requirement of a
two-third vote TO carry the propo-
sitions. Both bills are circumspect-
ly drawn and carefully guarded,
ana we cannot see how there can
be any possible abuse under them
though the relief sought is granted
under both.
1t is thought the most important
action taken was the passage of law
in relation TO county treasnrers
which we publish in another col.
umn. tits believed this will effect
ually put stop to speculation in The
peoples money, and prevent further
defalcations.
