told benefit not only to the citizens
of this city but to every planter

withstanding the fact that the
above named places are far from

during high water are entirely de

gTHE New York Sun says, the man.
ner in which the political friends of KEEL.
Logo have been permitted to rob the State
OF Louisiana without even a pretence of
bringing them to account, is well ilusira-
ted by some Of the settlements male by
Auditor CLINTON with defaultiug officials.
One BLANCHARD, Tax Collector in the pa
rish Morehouse, was defaulter to tho A.
mount of over 5000; CLINTON settled
MS accounts on the payment Of S6,03I,
throwing off the odd Sl3 900 rather than
make fuss about snch triflc, He was
even more easy with another defaultinp Col
lector named ID. c.. SETTING, permitting
him to settle for SIS, 600 less than was due
the treasury ; while he surpassed himself
IN the liberaliry of his dealings With still
another KELLOGG officeholder, A. j. Els
cHIVINA, who was Collector for the parish
OF Assumption. This model friend of the
Administration owed the State S5S ,l27.T7
for taxes collected by him CLINTON took
So, Oo4 20 in settlement, aud allowed his
political ally to keep the odd change, which
IN his case amounted TO little over $780,
oOO. Other oasee of like character are
reported, though the Auditor he'd no right
whatever to release any of these dofaul,ers
from their obligations to make correct re-
turns of money belonging to the State.
