ever, looks comphcently down on those
who have won the fight, and takes to
itself all the glory. It says the RErrs-
L1cAx is irritated over the election. This
is hardly fair on the part of our pal, who
has kept the principles Of Republicanism
and other principles we'll concealed.
We are not particularly irritated:
but we have not facs enough
to get up q smile over the election like
the childlike and bland smile now wreath.

As an enemy we prefer the Bulletin.
always in line Of battle. consistent in any
thing 20 beat Republicanism. We like
its beautiful writing. We like its
beautiful, two beautiful ROSTERS. In its
edition OF last evening it INDUCED IN
few remarks. under the heading ''Louisi.
ana Redeemed" commencing thus:
The smoke Of the conflict has sufficiently
cleared away this morning TO enable lis to
obtain . partial view Of the battlefield. \

many years. and We catch the celebrating
glimpses VI The enemy in full retreat. their
banners trailing in the dust. their boastful
and arrogant legions, appalled, at the over
whelm'ns disaster, leaving their dead upon
the field, and flying before the un wavering
line of the good and true soldiers who have
upborne the banners OF the people with such
signal ds;ing and rnhagging zeal.
There can be no objection to the LAM
guage. In the '.sunbursi Of glorious
truth" consequen: upon election. we see
the acknowledgement OF tair election.
The Bulletin has never been particularly
well satisfied with anything. 1t is salts
fed now and easily. The city went Dem.

ton; bu. this time it is . victory.
We hope the hes. FOX the new city cfh'

Lewis. Mr.. Burke has shown great en-.

provements.
In the frs, congressional district Gen.
e,al Gibson has been elected. II he will
do as much in Congress for the good Of
Louisiana as MI. Sypher has done, he will
get only good words from us. The first
district has preference :or the Fort st.
Philip canal over the jetty plan. We hope
the General will not 60 back Oh that be-
cause Mr.. Syphes introduced the bill; but
until the votes are counted, that will keep.
On the other Congressman we are unwil.
ling 20 bet tonight. unless We bet on the
election Of Mr. Nash, the co!ored candi.
date of the sixth district.
And now comes the Senate and House
Of Representatives. We concede Demo-
cratic gains; but with eighteen Senators
holding over. the coming Senate has
fair chance for Republican majority.
The Representatives are more uncertain,
but the chances with them are also for
Republican majority. Speaker Lowell
has II large majority in Jefferson parish.
and Ex-Governor Hahn comes back 20 the
House from St. CHARLES without oppo-
,si+ion. We feel no irritation at all
at this; but the Times says to the con-
trary, 'and the Times is an honorable
paper" as Marc Antony would say. In
oil efforts to make Louisiana peaceful,
happy and prosperous State, the REpuE-
l1cAS will be found shoulder to shoulder
with any other journal. Let Us learn to
labor and to wait. In the meantime, let
as have the votes counted, that the elec.
ton growers voice may be tempered &C.
cording to the victory.
