New York, Sept. l8.-The Presi-
dents Victory.-Gen. Grant has van
pushed the people of Louisiana again.
He has telegraphed to his generals
and his admirals, he has get the army
and navy in motion and the lawful
Government of Louisiana surrenders.
lfthere was only doubt before as to
the character of the usurpation which
rules the unhappy State by favor Of
the President, any question whether
the people really acquiesced in it,
there can be none now. The out
rage stands out henceforth in all its
naked deformity, an objectionable
crime against popular suffrage and
the sovereignty of a State. A Gov
eminent which the people loathe and
despise was forced upon Louisiana by
the soldiers Of the President; left to
themselves for a momoment. the peo-
pie threw it offand installed the Of
ticers whom they had regularly che.
sen at the polls. The deposed intru-
ders made no fight they were as
helpless and cowarlly as children IN
the presence of tile indignant people ;
but, covering behind the shutters Of
the Custom House they telegraphed
to the President, "the people have
put US out, this is your job, come
you and put US back again." Two
years ago Grant yielded to the bad
advice Of his disreputable associates
and installed kellogg at New Orleans

How is this State to improve in
the present and prospective condi.
ton of affairsi The appropriation
bill passed by tho last legislature was
characterized by Attorney General
Field, as land attempt to rob the
State" The prospect is that the next
legislature will contain a large pro.
portion of the thieves in the last one,
and that they will be elected at the
suggestion and with the support of
Mr.. Kellogg. How can q better con-
dition Of affairs be hoped for, when
tho same old thieves are in Office I have
they repented, or reformed I Never
. bit! The jobs that Attorney Cen
erald Field broke up by an appeal to
the courts will be perfected and car
tied out while the soldiers of the
United States stand under arms to
keep the peace! We do not object
to the soldiers, for they are the life
preservers of the State. Yet how
much better and how much easier, it
would be to give the people an hon
est economical government. Instead

Light Breaking.

As the facts are becoming known
outside Of Louisiana, even our bitter
est political opponents begin to realize
bow greatly deceived they have been
rs to tire state of affairs. Here is what
the Pittsburg Leader, violent Radi-
cal paper, has to say about it:
What makes it worse is that the
rebels have just enough right and
reason on their side to divide public
sympathy and embarrass the Govern
ment in their efforts to put then down.
There il no earthly doubt now that
Kellogg is not the legally elected
Governor Of Louisiana, and that Nc
Emery is-this much was frankly adj
mitted by Mr.. MortOn's Republican
Senate committee last year.
There is no doubt, either, that the
action of United States Judge Durell
in BUSTING the McEnery board, giving
Kellogg the election was a usnrpatiol'
and an outrage. Grant, himself We
do not doubt, now knows that his &C
ton in sustaining Kellogg aud Durell,
at the instance of his brOther-in law
Casey, was rash and wrong. There
is no doubt, either, that the action Of
Kellogg (who in many instances has
acted quite judiciously), in ordering
the disarming Of private citizens is
directly in violation of the United
States Constitution, and is a usurpa'
ton that would az surely raise a riot
in Pittsburg as in New Orleans.
There is 10 doubt of all this, yet
this rebellion must he suppressed by
the strong hand. Inter- arma leges
silent-Public order must be sustained
no matter who is right and who is
wrong other questions can be set
tied afterward. However wrongfully
he obtained his seat, Kellogg is, and
for two years has been, the de facto
Governor of Louisiana. AS the Tri-
bnne says, this ia no time for McEnery,
or Penn, his Lieutenant, to assert
their claims. Tho President should
uphold Kellogg with all the power Of
the United States against the rebel
lion--thcn do Justice afterward.

There has been one crying evil in
this Parish for long time, and it
should be put a stop too by a comb
nation Of merchants with planters,
We allude to the purchase of bags
and sacks Of cotton at night from
freedmen. We hear from good au-
thority, that in and around "a mile
ferry, this trade has been carried to
an excess that calls for Immediate
action. Let our merchants and plan
ters have an understanding to arrest,
not only the>sellers but tho purchaser
of sacks Of seed cotton; and the
evil will be checked.

cure your conquest.
This is rs much our country rs

We are ready to unite with you on

But, if sou will have to expose the
cloven- foot Of despotis'n You have

it presses upon our necks, yOns too
must and shall feel the print of it.
Ex-Governor Penn does not want to

himself like u hero and, il "anothel
rebellion" and civil war is the consc-
qucucc, let them come. The worst
that can happen is to make Grant an
Emperor, and the South is ready to
do that now. The Democratic party
Of the North is gone; swept out Of
existence by these acts, as it was swept
out Of existence in 1861 by secession.
If the men at tho South who have re-
fused our advice, and engaged in this
business in spite of US, are sincere
if they mean Cuisines show is their
time. They will never get u bette!

away, confessing that all their assaults

In short and in fine, what We mean
is this: There is no use trying peace
FIJI agencies as long as the marplots
are engaged in stirring up strife the
marplots have now pretty quarrel

abandon their seuselcss and reckless
