THE TRUE ISSUE.

"The Louisiana investigation has devel
oped nothing new. Everybody understood
that the ms have been. from the beginning
engaged in a successful and gigantic swindle
AGAINST the outs. In the meantime, the sub
stantial interests of the people have gone BY
the board. until the once great city OF Ne"
Orleans is ruined"
.Kellopp is not a we'll meaning, honest
man. a. the Radical organs pretend. He and
his gang are mere plunderers In brigand'
age, degrees of personal amiability should moi
be counted with decent people, and are only
set down as creditable by tricky partisans-
"Tne scheme Of upturning society and plac.
ina the bottom on top is a failure. The effort
10 legislate the african into an Anglo-SaSo Is
a future The reconstruction policy EN-.
braced both attempts, and is responsible fol-
both failures. The Radical press can explain
nothing; it can only howl out the dismal
platitudes with which it prefaced it's original
work Of vengeance and destruction"
So says, and truthfully says, the Louisville
Comier.Jou,7eI of recent date. The attempt
to change by legislation the immutables laws
of nature, to upturn the social pyramid and
expecting it to stand with its apex down and
it's base in the air, in other words, to evolve
good government by depriving the educated
classes Of all power or influence. and placing
them under tho heel of the most ignorant and
degraded members Of the same community,
has yielded its only possible results, anarchy,
a war of races, and complete, almost ire
trievable ruin!
We say almost, because in tho very excuses
and enormous political blunders to which the
Radical faction are now driven, We see the
potent agency whereby the evil will correct
itself, and the nearly laundering ship Of State
shall be rescued from tho Ignorant and
drunken crew who are now running it against
the breakers, and Led back BY competent
hands to its time-honored and safe moosings

explained that his intended mother had in

THE POLICE BOARD. a

Seven Policeman Discharged for Refusing
to Take Up Arms at the State. H ouse.
Patrolman Gleason Dropped for Insult.
Ing William Pitt Kellogg. II oai

The courtroom of the Police Board was crowd.
ed yesterday with patrolmen and their wit
nesses. waiting to be called upon to answer to
certain charges preferred against them.
At II o'clock, Bray took the chair, in the alb
| sence Of G. c. Antoine and Z. v. Leclerc,a the
Vice President of the board. Present: Robin
| son, Murdoch, Gaudet, and Administrators Nc
Carly. Officers Gibson, Hoyt, Marks, Ford, Hy-
land, Kelvin and Thompson were first called to
answer charges made against them by Sergeant
Boyd Robinson, for disobedince Of orders, in re-
fusing to go to the State-House.
All hands answered to their names and plead
guilty, stating that they were willing togo there
or anywhere else as police officers but refused
to take up arms against the people, "a they were
commanded to do when they received their in
structions to report at the State-House.
The board acted upon the matter and oonciud-
ed to discharge them for disobedience Of orders.
Gleason was next called and answered to his
NAME The clerk then read charge against him
for insulting william Pitt Kellogg, between the
hours Of II and o'clock on Christmas Eve, when
the police called on Kellogg in body 70 demand
their pay. A s st-e.s
Gleason did the talking and when Kellogg said
that they would be obliged to do without the
money for Christmas, he naturally became ex-
cited and said that tho police would quit, Kellogg
answered that they might al quit, and thathe
would find thousands Of men to take their places.
Gleason answered that they would turn the sta
tons over to the White League. which insulted
Kellogg and he accordingly had the captain prefer
charges against him. -fttsaH az ar
Gleason was not ready for trial as two Of his
principal witnesses were not present, after being
duly notified, and asked that the case be con-
tinued until he could find Kellogg and another
witness for his defense. This WAS overruled by
the board, who thought that II would inconve-
nience Kellogg to bring him there as witness
for so trivial a matter, and concluded to go on
with the case, which they did, and in five minutes
TIME Mr.. John Gleason was no longer member
Of the police force. X iat+
About twenty-five patrolmen we're tried and
fined one and two days pay for being absent on
Christmas. After transacting other routine bust
ness, the board adjourned.
