thought proper to issue this my proclamation,

keepers of saloons, or places where intoxicating
liquors are sold, to close their respective estab-
Ishments from sunrise until sunset on Monday
next. November Cd. All good citizens are re-
quested to employ special forbearance and pru-
dence on the day Of election, in order that the
peace Of the city may not be disturbed and that
no obstacle may be raised against full, fair and
quiet expression Of the will of the people.
Given under my hand and the seal OF the City Of
New Orleans

The reported disaffection of Senator Nor
ton towards Gen. Grants administration re-
ceives corroboration from an editorial of the
Indianapolis journal (RadicaD. The Journal
believes that Gen. Grant wants third term,
and declares that he could not be reelected,
and furthermore, that it would not be a good
thing for pure politics if he could be. It is
refreshing to find paper devoted to Morton
solicitous about "pure politics.

The New York Daily Bulletin states that the
trade suspensions in that city within the last
two or three weeks aggregate nearly $780,
600. Fully two-thirds Of these liabilities are

while the remainder belongs to houses in the
dry goods jobbing trade.

The New York Herald puts this pertinent
query: "Why is it that citizens Of Shreve-
port are arrested for promising not to employ
any one voting the Radical ticket at the next
election, and yet many employees of the Gus
tom-House and Post Office are compelled to
vote the Radical ticket for fear of losing their
D0aifinna2"

DISFRANOHISEMENT OF FOREIGN
CITIZENS.

The present attitude OF the hepu DHcaI
party in this State is similar in many respects
to that Of the Know Nothing party. In fact
it goes much farther in the disfranchisemen'
Of foreign citizens and in depriving them Of
the political rights and privileges guaranteed
to them by the Constitution Of the United
States.
The opinion Of that pundit Col. A. z.
Field whilst it is nothing but an opinion
and very faulty and erroneous one at that
is to be made the authority for the Registrar
ef Voters to erase from the registration list
the names of thousands of naturalized citizens.
Such action is naturally calculated to arouse
the indignation of every foreigner in the
country, and should be sufficient cause to
array him in hostility against the Republican
party in all time to come.
The only respectable white men in the
Republican party OF this State are foreigners
principally Germans. Their organ, the German
Gazette. has done much by its teachings to-
wards increasing the strength of the white
element of the Radical party in Louisiana.
But this attempt on the part of the leaders of
the party to which they have given their ale
glance and contributed SO much to sustain.
must naturally drive the Germans and all
other foreigners from any farther connection
with such political fraud as the Republican
party.
By its proscriptiye tendencies Know
Nothing proclivities and arbitrary rulings the
Republican party, we are gratifed to say, will
swell the ranks of the Democracy and
give us the political aid and support Of class
of citizens that heretofore we have not been
able to control. And although the application
of this unjust and tyrannical decision of At
torney General Field will operate to the seri-
GUS damage of the Democratic party in this
yet in future it will react and tell
with terrible effect upon the authors OF this |
infamous outrage.
That the mere obiter dctum of bitter par
tisan, whose reputation as lawyer is based
solely upon his knowledge Of criminal law,
md his familiarity with the "ways that are
lark and the tricks that are vain" of the
many felons he has cleared and convicted,
'hould be received and acted upon as final
judicial decree, is an outrage upon people
hat language is powerless to sufficiently de-
,ounce.
If this is to be tolerated, better abolish all
# the courts at once, and submit every liti-
,ated question to Attorney General Field, and
ct his opinion be accepted as final Judgment
Without appeal. This will save the State great
xpense and will facilitate the Radical party
q DISTINGUISHING every one supposed to be
nimical to the interest Of Republicanlsm as
epresented here by Kellogg, Packard, Dibble.
ypher, Field, Longstreet, Hawkins, Lynch,
)ewees Twitchell, and such other hirelings Of
no usurpation, whose lust for gold is greater
nan their care for their own personal respect
bility and their own good name.

We have said very little during the cam.
paign about the individual nominees of thu
Democratic and Conservative party, inasmuct
as most Of them are too well and honorably
known to need any special eulogist. The peo-
pie recognize their intelligence, integrity and
capacity they intend to vote for them, and
hence we have refrained, as a rule, from in
Producing into our columns eulogiums Of gen.
| tlemen whose highest Endorsement consists in
the fact that they were selected by the honest
people to bear their standards in this most i'm
portant and momentous camgaign.
There is one gentleman, however, whom we
feel called upon to specially compliment for
his unfaggihg zeal his unfailing resources
for his rapid and clear discernment of all the
tricks and rascalities of the opposition, and
for his remarkable ingenuity in meeting and
frustrating them, Major E. A. Burke. Neg
lecting his private interests, this gentleman
has entered into the campaign with all the
vim and earnestness of his nature, and to him
we are mainly indebted for the admirable
system and order which has marked the con-
duct Of affairs on our side of the house.
He organized with much patience and labor
a bureau for the detection of Radical frauds,
in which two hundred men and canvassers
have been unremittingly employed In each
ward there is an assistant superintendent and
board Of canvassers who, by diligence and
thorough system, have achieved most satisfac-
tory results.
Under Major Burke's direction polling lists
have been prepared for the use of our COM
missioners on the day Of the election and the
testimony has been carefully gathered and
upon which the names of thousands
Of fraudul emily registered Radicals will be
stricken from the rolls and the individuals
themselves indicted and arrested.
We learn that several hundred warrants for
the arrest Of such parties will be issued by a
United States Commissioner to-day, and
Major Burke has been summoned to appear
before the Grand Jury to testify in cases
againsts Radical, charged with false registra-
ton.

occasion will speak boldly and with energy of
the acts Of the man who pretends to be the
representative Of the legal profession.
1t is time for this stand to be made when, as
in this case, any member of that honored pro-
fession so far forgets what is due to his trust
as to cater to the demands of political neces-
sity and becomes the tool of fraud and tyranny.
We are satisfied that the action taken will be
q scathing rebuke to Field. and what the
result will be remains to be seen.

| If Grant could be induced, when quietly
smoking his cigars, to reflect, as all sober
men should, he would find ready egress
from the labyrinth of error and misdemeanor
into which his mercenary advisers have in
volved him in the affairs of Louisiana. He
has only to follow the example OF the general
commanding the troops in Boston, at the time
above mentioned, take his soldiers where they
may be more nsefully employed and he would
have the happiness to observe in how brief a
