0stracism Of Gen. Longstreet.

0strseism Of Gen. Longstreet.
A correspondent OF the New York Herald
in New Orleans says:
As an illus;ration OF what social os.ra-
cism in NewfOrleans and Louisiana for diff
ferences of political opinion means, no bet.
ter case can be found than that Of General
Longstreet. At the close of the war he was
idolized in this city. No one approached
him in populsr esteem. His military record
WA grander than Storewall Jackson's; it
We'd with Lees; it rivaled Sherman's and
Grants. He lived as in fairy land OF
fancy and delight. Within twenty.four
hours the dream faded away. From being
the idol Of the populace he was the com.
pletest object of their detss:stion. He had
written . political letter, the sentiment Of
which New Orleans and Louisiana dIsap-
proved, and consequently he had become a
traitor and q knave. Nine.y-seven cut Of
every hundred Of his acquaintance refused
cieiy in single day. For seven long years
this ostracism has continued. LoDgstreet
has endured it with tina. heroism which &C.
cepts fate calmly. The only sign he has
shown Of the acuteness of his wounds is in a
disposition to avoid everybody. The other
day ! heard the subject long and earnestly
discussed on the piazza Of the ST. Charles
Hotel. Jack Wharton ass;rted that Long
streets case vas only an example OF the 60
cisl and political o-tracism which obtains in
this city. Mr.. Bingham Lawrence, a
wealthy planter Of Plsquemioe, parish. con-
frmed il. General Thomas A. Harris, a
Distinguished soldier Of he CoLfederacy, de-
clared that in Longstree.'s case it xss terri
BILE and complete, without precedent and
justification. The same spirit rules to-day
in politics and in society.

IMPORTANT TO usuIAxcE nEH.

Insurance men will be interested in an i'm
portant decision Just rendered in the Su-
preme Court OF the United States, entitled
"The Home Insurance Company against
Morse" 1t seems that the Home Insurance
of New York complied in writing with the
statutes of Wisconsin, by which, among 9TH
er things, it agreed not to remove the case
commenced against it in the State Courts to
Federal Courts, but on the commencement of
the present case it nevertheless moved for 3
transfer to Federal Court. 1he court be-
low regarded the statute and agreement as e
ground for denial of the motion. The Su-
preme Court reverse this judgment based
upon that theory, and hold that neither a
private citizen nor corporate body may
barter away substantial rights, and that the
company was entitled to removal, notwith-
standing the State law and the contract.
Justice Hunt delivered the opinion. Chiei
Justice Waite delivered dissenting opin-
\ ion, in which Justice Davis concurred, hold.

Such proposi,ioo would net, a. some
may suppose, shock the Northern DINO

cult to assign any reason for rejecting Mr..
Davis which would cot apply to nearly every
other Democrat Of the country, excep. thst
bis political disabilities have not been re-
moved, and that be participated personally
In the var OF the rebellion; and even Re-
publicans could not, and Democrats would
not, insist on the latter objection - valid
obstruction, because that has been yielded
in the constitutional amendments, 10 the
statutes, and BY the practice of two Repub-
iican administrations; and Democrats could
not be expected TO regard the former As in
supersble. for Mr.. Davis did nothing in the
recent var which the great leaders Of the
Democracy in the North have not Insisted

stitutional right to Go We are, therefore,

CORRECT.

The Atchison Champion, in speaking Of
the habit of Republicans, in a majority, Of
complimenting the Democrats, who are in >
minority, says Of the Hon. Thomas P. Fem
lon that which everybody will acknowledge
is true:
During the late canvass the present
Speaker OF the Kansas House of Represen-
tatiyes, elected by Republican votes, and
who, in his address on taking the Chair paid
a high eulogy to the virtues of on-partizan
action, made in this city the most bitter,
malignant, partizan Democratic speech that
was made here during the whole campaign.
The absurdity of his position and his speech;
contrasted, is somewhat grotesque; but it is
an admirable illustration of Democratic
professions and practice. When the Demo-
Gratis are in minority they are the most
pleasant, persuading, cabling fellows imagi-
Dable, and never thought Of such thing as
partizanship! But give them power and
they are the most bigoted, intolerant, tyr
annical men in the world, utterly unscrupu-
lous in their partizanship and totally Obliv-
ious Of courtesy in anything"

Col. ". 4. YAillips,

The npminaiion and reelection Of Col.
w. A. Phillips, to the high and honorable
position Of Representative in Congress, in
view of the disastrous political revolution
that has inst swept over the country, may
Justly be marked ~ Q great triumph for the
Republican party in Kansas. OF cour.s his
majority Il considerably below that given
him in the same counties two years ago, but
considering all the events that have taken
place since that time, his election this fall
may be regarded, in any event. great Re-
publican victory, Notwithstanding il speaks

the voters Of tie First Conar ssional Die

No candidate for Congress in tais State

justly assailed rs was Col. Phillips. His
political enemies have been like drove oil
blood hounds on his track ever since the
Leavenworth convention declared him By
acc.amation the nominee Of that body. The
most bare-faced falsehoods have been manu-
facsured and circulated seains: his public
record while in the service of his country.
Nothing too low and mean has been resorted
to BY his opponents to attempt to show that
he has been dishonest as \ private citizen
All the mean ISLANDERS ever circulated against

to say he has triumphed over the combined
opposition Of the entire army of slarderers,
whose sole object was ostensibly to beat him,
NO matter at what cost or eacri6ce.
We repeat, in conclusion. that the result
is great victory for the glorious Republic

has beaten both his opponents by over 200
majority, in spite Of the base calumnies
used against him by the thres or four papera

OLD PON,s TRIAL.

The people and the press OF the country
are almost unanimous In the expression that
these repeated attempts to try Old Pom are
farcical. The owlish looks Of the defense,
the prosecuting attorney, the judges and the
knowing ones, who have the old mans con-
fidence, is becoming monotonous. The Chi
sage Post says:
Pomeroy's trial is said to have been post
poned six months. These delays to try the
old political devil do not try" him, and in
dictate that he will not be tried but they do
try the people, and kill their faith in the
law as medium of justice.
The Oskaloosa Independent says:
'sPomeroy's trial is set for this term Of court
in o age county. The TINES thinks, with a
good many more Of US, that the trial will
pever amount TO anything. Pom. knows too
much of some of the rest of EN-, and he may
peach If pushed"
The Wathena Reporter in speaking of the
case says:
Pomeroy's case came up in the District
Court at Burlingame Tuesday. Pomeroy
was there with his leading lawyers and lead
ing witnesses and large number of personal
friends. The attorneys and witnesses for the
prosecution were there, too, and it began to
look like business. A great flourish was
made and Pomeroy was, as usual, almost
dead with eagerness for his trial to proceed
1t was rumored that he would divulge
many Of the ways that are dark among Kan
sas political scalawags, and that he intended
to make things particularly hot for Senator
ingalls, 1t required SO much time for Skin
m:shing that the case had to be postponed
until " ednesday to get everything in good
readiness and everybody prepared for tire
wonderful revelations about to be made, but
the trial would come of Wednesday posi-
lively for the last time, without fail. The
public, on the tip toe Of expectation, was no
doubt disappointed very little in reading the
news in this morning. Geographic dispatches
that the trial had come of-excuse us, We
verc about to say it had come off in &C
cordance with the announcement. Blu
those personal friends of Pomeroy wer'
anxiousIy standing around. They were no
Just ready to share in Pomeroy's shame, and
the trial, as usual, was continued on account
of the sbsence of material witnesses. (Sic.,

SMALL TRlCHYRY.

The New York Times makes an editorial
anne lncement that places Mr.. Wilkie COL
lins, the novelist, in decidedly unpleasant
attitude. The Times, according to its state
ment, entered into an agreement with Mr..
w. F. Gill, publisher, of Boston, for the
exclusive publication" in its Sunday issue
of story by Mr.. Collins, entitled "A Sane
Mailman" and the manuscript in Mr.. Col
Inns handwriting, was duly received and
put into type. On Saturday last Mr.. Jen-
nings made the pleasing discovery that this
identical story, only under the name Of
Fatal Fortune" appeared in All the Year
Round OF Oct. 18th and oath, "a translation
on the part of Mr.. Gill and Mr.. Collins
which Mr.. Jennings is "unable to explain,
and therefore republishes the literary bone
of contention from the English periodical
