THE RADICAL LUCIFER OF LOUIS
lana.

ant upon our late revolution, amid all th'
calamities which have befallen our unfortu
nate State, amid the universal exc ,ratiC1
which has be n poured out upon Warmoti
and Kellogg and the host Of political YAM
pires who have battened upon the iife-blood o
Louisiana one man has remained silent
undisturbed, but deeply interested spec
tator of events that have stirret
the hearts Of the people to theil
profoundest depths events that were
the necessary and inevitable outgrowth Of his
devilish scheming and plotting, and which he
calculated upon as means Of accomplishing
his purpose.
No sentiment Of mercy, no mawkish feeling
of pity has ever found place in his cruel and
malignant heart, or made him stay tor one
moment the execution of his bloody and nur,
derous plans.
Seated in his uncean and retired Office in
the Custom-Hous where he knew himself
safe from interference, he has furnished the
brains and the backbone for the Kellogg usur-
patton, and has never faltered moment in his
determination to keep the necks Of the white
people Of Louisiana under the yoke Of Radi-
calism. Neither entreaties nor argnm lent are
of any avail with this man, who considers it
his highest and most sacred duty to yield alb
ject obedience to his masters in Washington.
A note from the sanguinary Attorney Gen
eial, who has recently been placed in com
mand Of the army Of the South, would be
sufficient authority for s. b. Packard to com
mence an indiscriminate slaughter of the whites
throughout the State, and his nature is such
that he would read the recital of the butcher
es with fendish glee as evidence that the
white majority WIS., being reduced
Emulating his master in Washington he is
silent and undemonstrative, rarely conversing
with any but his most intimate associates
and never even to them fully disclosing his
most diabolical plans. This reticence, and
the fact that he always works through his
deputies and agents, has screened him in a
great measure from the censure and scorn he
deserves, and he has often chuckled to
himself when he has heard and
seen the anathemas that should have been
directed towards him, showered upon the head
of Kellogg, Or some other of his miserable
tools. With scarcely one 1.-THE the patronage
of the collector of the port, he has managed
to maintain himself at the head Of his party,
while performing the duties of United States
Marshal, but has invariably shorn Casey of
even the few laurels he has deserved for clever
strokes Of policy in working the various cam
paigns.
He has played with the Collector and every
other United States official as a child plays
with toy, bending them absolutely to his
mperious will, and lashing them in ranks
whenever they have shown the slightest dis
position to rebel as a Texas COW driver lashes
nto the common herd such animals as occa-
'ionally attempt to gain their liberty and roam
he forests at will.
With all his hardness his cold, calculating
disposition, his indomitable will, his self-re-
lance and brutal instincts, he is plausible
nd conciliatory in his demeanor, and can be
IS hypocritical as diplomat whenever occa-
ion demands. Heartily despising Kellogg
ruth, he yet aecords him his powerful sup
ort, regarding him as disgusting and loath-
ONE ne ,essity to the party.
Ru"or has it that, during the revolution
hen Kellogg, having fed from the State
louise and from the wrath of the people, sat
owering in the Marshal's Office, like
he guilty and abject thing he is,
ackard gave him the most furious tongue
lshing, charging him With the responsibility
Dr the whole trouble, and alleging that, but
II his indecision of character, his lying and
is idiotic policy generally, the people would
ave remained quiet.
However this may be, it is known that but
,r Packard, Kellogg would have either fed
from the State, or would have
esgned and acceeded to the demands of the
eople, whom he knew that he had cruelty
nd grossly injured.
Packard, therefore, is the worst enemy
ouisiana has within her borders and to him
lore than any other one man i'll the State We ,,
lay attribute all the woes that have afflicted !
S. Let us remember that always and while q
letins out to Kellogg and his hirlings large
lare of our Indignation and just ,
sentiment, never forget, that but Tor !
ackard, the usurpation would have been '
rushed aye. would never have been consum !
ated. Crafty, cruel and courageous, bloody
inded, able and clear-healed, he is the very
rdor of man to carry out the behests OF the {
omineering and insolent Attorney General I
