party, but as proof that they alone
did not do it and that there must
have been some other cause, we
have to point only to the fact that
this condition of affairs has contin.
ued during these six years. That
other cause, the great moving i'm
pulse to the reaction against this
party was its failure to play upon
the Southern outrage string as sue
cessfully as it had been doing. The
people of the North were anG are
tired of the bosh and display of out
RACES at the South and the revul-
sion of feeling carried them as far
towards the vindication of t b g
South as their prejudices had be-
fore carried them towards oppres-
sing US. They have at last realized
the true condition of affairs in the
South and we hope andpredict that
the end of all our troubles draws
nigh.

The Natchitoches Prisoners.

The Natchitoches Prisoners.
The gentlemen who were so arbi.
trarily arrested at Natchitoches,
and who have been in confinement
for several weeks. passed down on
the Sabine on Thursday last. We
had the pleasure Of meeting our
friend Cosgrove of the Vindicator,
and Messrs Taylor and Carter,
while the boat was at our wharf.
They are now under bonds of $4,000
leach, and are on their way to New
Orleans, in company with their SO
curities who propose to deliver
them up to the U. s. Commissioners
on their arrival, so as to force or
secure a trial for them.
Beckwith, the partisan U. s. Dis
trict Attorney telegraphed from
New Orleans to Natchitoches Z" un-
der no circumstances to give them
a preliminary examination, but if
they would waive examination to
release them on bondsof $4,000 each.
This was done SO as to allow the
matter to drop, now that the cleo.
ton is over, but the gentlemen ar
rested do not propose that Beck
with, Packard, Kellogg & Co.,
shall get rid Of the Elephantin any
such way. They, as the whole
country, have been outraged by
their brutal and arbitrary arrest,
and they propose to know the
why and wherefore, and to enquire
fsuch things can be done and go
unpublished.
They were charged with "con-
spiEacy," completely or some such
balderdash in the Coushatta affair.
We have rever before met the 9TH
er gentlemen, but we know to our
certain knowledge that Mr.. J. III.
Cosgrove was in New Orleans at
the time of the Coushatta affair.
and did not return until some
days, a week or more after the
whole affair was over. We we're
together at the State Convention at
Baton Rouge only a few days be-
fore, from whence he went to New
Orleans and we came home. He
came up nearly two weeks after
wards and some time after the
Coushatta business on the r. T..
and took a hack from
here to Natchitoches. We do not
suppose that any of the other gen.
tlemen who were arrested, had
more to do with it than
he had.
Their arrest, confinement and at
tempted release without even a |
form of trial was brutal outrage.
The best government the world
ever saw"has already had to answer
for just such crimes against the lib
erty Of American citizens and in
1876 the sovereign people will by
their votes crush out every vestige
Of the tyranny that thus overrides
every right secured to the individ-
uals who make up the general gov
eminent.

who are in arrears to us to pay up
their subscriptions. Our terms
we're Cash, in advance, but as the
times were hard and a political
campaign in progress, we INDUCED
some of them by deviating from our
rule. Most, if not all. Of such are
now able to pay up, and as the
amount of 90 90 is so small, they
will not feel it, but it will in the az
gregate greatly assist us. We send
a notice with this weeks paper to
all delinquent subscribers and hope
that they will at once send us the
amounts due.
Our, yearly subscriptions do not
expire until March, at which time
those of our subscribers who
wish to renew, will please notify us.
