louisiana.

We observe that Judge Atocha has resigned
his function in New Orleans. One of the
reasons alleged for this step is his disincina-
alton to take part in the trial of certain men,
bers of the Penn movement who are to be
brought under indictment for their participa-
ton in the recent revolution. Another reason,
and this we confess would be the most gratify-
ing to us, is that Judge Atocha recognizes the
wisdom and patriotism of the demand that
the Kellogg government, and oil concerned
with it, should retire from office and permit
new expression Of the popular will of Louisi-
ana If Judge Atocha's reasons are correctly
understood then he deserves the praise of the
country for this act Of meritorious self
sacrifice; for it is beyond question that no
part OF the Kellogg government, executive,
legislative or judicial, can be said to have
gained the confidence Of the people OF Louisi-
ana. As Reverdy Johnson expressed it in
his letter the other day to the HERALD, for
Kellogg to persist in clinging to power, under
the protection of federal bayonets, would be to
remain in a position alike humiliating and
dishonorable.
The example which Judge Atocha thus gives
should be promptly followed by the members
of the Kellogg party as well as the McEnery
claimants. But if, on the contrary, as we in
fer from the tone of certain dispatches Kel-
ogg and his friends mean to invoke the laws
for the indictment and trial of the Penn revo-
lutionists, it will be a serious blunder. Mr..
Kellogg should remember that only yesterday
he was flying like hare before the revolution
which Penn represented, and which spoke the
voice of the people of Louisiana. He should
reflect that, but for the aid Of the federal gov.
eminent, he would still be covering behind
the walls of the Custom House, or, armed
with his trnsty and useful carpet-bag, be OF
his way to another habitation. lie should
feel that his government is condemned by th,
public opinion of the country, Sy men az

of the President in this State to abandon
the thought of pressing his nomination
for third term, and to make up their minds
that there are other ways of preventing the
return of the democracy to power than
through the continued reelection OF one
man. Their influence over the President
Is known to be great, and they
now have an opportunity to exercise it
for the good of the party and of the country.
A word from the proper quarter would
settle question that is disturbing
the public mind and would leave the Presi-
dent free to act with independence, magma
nimity and true craftsmanship in his treat
ment of the Southern States. The certainty
that the Presidential policy was uninhuenced
by any ambitious object would create better
feeling all over the country than now exists,
and would tend to consolidate the republican
party and prevent democratic reaction
On the other hand continued silence on
the subject will increase the uncertainty
suspicion and alarm that now prevail and
create distrust in the policy Of the admins
tration The country desires peace in reality
and not in name alone. The bitter TRADE
uttered by Senator COnkling against the
South will repel more republicans than it will
attract, for the people are tired of the revival
of these sectional issues with every recurring
election. The war is over, although Toombs
at the South and Conkling at the
North do not appear to recognize the
fact. The animosities engendered by the
war should cease, and our political
battles should now be fought without
the resurrection of buried issues. 1t would
be difficult to persuade the people that the
evils depicted by Senator Conkling would not
be lessened by the avowed abandonment of
the third term policy; hence the desire that
President Grant should break the silence he
has so long preserved. The subject cannot
now be ignored, for the action of republican
State conventions has made it live Issue
within the party. The outspoken opposition of
New York would have settled the question, and
on that account an open avowal on the subject
in the republican platform was very desirable.
The unmistakable spirit of the Convention was
in opposition to a departure from the time
honored precedent established by Washington;
but this is not enough. The people looked
for positive declaration of principle from
the Convention, and the fault Of the omission
can only now be remedied by President
Grant. 1t will be prudent policy on the part
of Senator Conkling and his friends to heed
the sentiments of the party and to aid In un-
sealing the Presidential lips.

ABOUT FLAG There is an amusing des-
patch in reference to United States official
in the South who, feeling it his duty to inter-
tere with the public display of Confederate
flag, has been rebuked by the Attorney General
for his oficiousness. The government holds
dwelling with any colored bunting that pleases
him. If this bunting takes the form OF the old
Confederate flag it is his private concern and
not that of the government. This shows good
sense, and it would be well if all the dealings
of the administration with the South were
marked With the same torbearance and wis
doro.

The republican nominations for Congress are

Second district is ''an apologist and de-
fender of that outrage" and the candidate in
the Third district zone Of the most unscru-
