MORE LIBERTY THAN SAFETY.

| Our usual Sunday record of bloody
deeds appears somewhat smaller this week
than it has heretofore been for several
months. But two deaths are reported
and one of them YVES the result of acct
| dent. Perhaps this like other diversions.
has yielded to the duliness of the times,
and its votaries have retired for the season.
The careless use of fire arms is the legiti
mate outgrowth of the custom which has
placed dangerous weapon in the pocket
OF nearly every boy over twelve years of
age In the city, and has distributed them
through households as plentiful as polers
and tongs. Of all the money which has
been invested in pistols ''for self-defense"
we doubt whether one-half Of one per cent
has been realized for the ostensible object.
Though many murderers have been let off
by complacent juries, we do not recollect
above dozen cases in twenty years in
which the plea of self-defense would have
availed but for the bad habit the commu-
nifty has fallen into Of excusing anybody
who could establish that he was or had
ever been the least bit frightened by the
deceased An alleged threat, six or eight
months old, has often proved sufficient to
save the accused from punishment, espec-
tally if he had a little money'or political
or family influence, and the pursuit did
not happen to be hot.
Were there not danger that it would be |
considered an invasion of the peoples |
liberties, we would like to see the police |
seize every gun, pistol, gimlet knife, dirk
and sword cane i'll the city, and have the
whole lot broken up and sold for old iron.
There would, of course, be a complete
smash of all the liberty ever heard of at
ward meeting which would of course be
7ery bad. But as the saving of human
life would be immense, there would be so
many more shoulders to assist in bearing
he great loss. We may be wrong in
placing human life above the popular
distract idea Of liberty, but the fault if
my, is in our nature, and we can not be
ducated out Of it.

1900 would pay the tariff tax on an
annual consumption of $4,000, or s24OO.
bis overseer, who had no property, would
pay tax at similar rate on a consump-
ton OF $500, or S24O This violated the
principle of Jefferson and of justice, since
IL made man who had nothing pay one
tenth as much as he worth q million
OF dollars. Yet when this mans million
was to be defended against foe the man
with nothing, denied under q former
democratic system the right of suffrage,
was conscripted into the ranks, while the
man OF the million was exempt from
danger in right of his property. 1t was
the doctrine of Thomas Jefferson that
property should pay the expenses of gov
eminent, and that he who fought the bat
ties should not be denied the right to
vote on the question of war.
No man, then, who claims to be Jeffer-
sonlan Republican or Democrat can advo-
cate the indirect taxation recommended.
practiced and profited in by the New
Orleans Democracy
MIR. Booth himself will pardon us if we
say that he does not comprehend the
of Democracy. He assumes
to treat and represent 'sthe Democratic
workingmen's party, hard listed and un-
terrified, even if unwashed."
Now how can he reconcile this assump-
ton with the following:
One skilled in the occult science of
political auscultation could easily diagnose
The moribund Radical party by hearing
me horrifying reverberatiOns now going on |
n its interior regions.
That ''hard-fsted" and ''unwashed" |
Democrat should couch such a metaphor
n such phraseology is perfectly prepos-
erous. MIR. Booth understands nothing
It all Of American Democracy which is
tepublicanism, and bis unwashed asso-
lates will comprehend just as little of
hat which he would explain to them in
UGH aristocratic language.

AN INNOCENT ABROAD.

Mr. Charles Nordhcff begins to grow a
little dull as his greenness wears off.
| When he first came down South. fresh
from his little seven by ten room in the
fourth story of a New York printing office,
he was bewildered by the vastness of the
country and gawked around like New
York dandy among the White Mountains
OF New England or a raw Hoosier on
Broadway. He has charming way of
relating very trite things in wonderful
manner, and has treated us to two or three
chapters Of every day Southern life in
such a style as to lead us to suppose he
never before saw much of the world
In his last letter to the Herald he gives
what purports to be digest of the con-
stitution and laws of this State, unmind-
full, perhaps, of the fact that they have all
been published in full long ago. But the
innocent Bohemian approaches our con-
stitution as though it were a veritable in
fernal machine charged with glycerine
and ready to blow up at any moment. 1t
gives authority to the Governor to make
more appointments than the editor of the
Herald and Euening Post both together
have in their power to bestow, which, for
little outlying province like Louisiana
naturally looks rather steep to regularly
accredited commissioner of the first
named potentate.
Unfortunately for this commissioner,
whatever he says that is true is very old
and threadbare, while his novelties. or
those statements which may pass for such,
were probably intended to be fine efforts
at allegory. He revels in catalogue of |
the names of justices Of the peace who |
have been appointed by the Governor:
rattles away at the Greenes, of Lincoln /
parish, whom the Bulletin some time since
Informed an Indifferent world held a few
offices among them, and quotes chapter
or two from the Natchitoches Dindic1tor
about the Boultts, of that parish. As
noAe Of these most extraordinary state
nents have before appeared in New
York paper since Congress adjourned, the
Herald is entitled to credit for being in
he field, last if not first
Such skimming over the surface of
political affairs for the purpose of select
ng all the more disagreeable features and
,arading them before distant commun-
ty in a partial and one-sided statement is

very much like blasphemous railer who
should arraign Divine Providence for the
manner in which the elements are con-
| trolled. At one time he wo uld find a
| drouth consumed the land; at another it
was deluged with floods of unnecessary
rain. Ships were caught in fearful storms
at Sea and sent to the bottom with all on
| board. The very next week, perhaps, a
vessel freighted with a Herald commits
sloner and his dispatches from Africa was
becalmed in the very same place. and the
batch OF lies he had in his carpet-bag
came to hand so late that they were use
less, as the truth had arrived in the mean
time by another route and been published
In the New York Times or Graphic. He
who looks only to the affections of man
kind, and dwells lovingly upon the al
legged mistakes of statesmen, need not
take the trouble to go from New York to
New Orleans for a theme to found his
grumbling upon.
The Republican party of this State do
not set up for perfection, but We claim
that we have done the best we could as a
general thing, considering the difficulties
We had to contend with and the sort of
material which the patronage of the party
attracted to it. But while Mr.. Nordhoff
has given an attentive ear to its enemies,
and apparently done his best to give it as
bad name as possible, he has only sue
ceeded in repeating the old charges which |
his predecessors found it to their profit |
to invent long ago. He has discovered |
nothing that is new, unless it may be his |
own propensity to stare in wonder at
things he has not the depth to compre-
bend, and an itching desire to make him. I

hundred or SO little items of gossip which
ought long ago have been secured from

not make the detailed statement in regard
to shoes, gloves, wooden ware and other
simple fabrics. The principle advocated
involves: l. The permanent self support
OF our people. 2. The utilization of their
labor IN their Gym subsistence by furnish
ing them with capital and organization.
Ii is only enabling people to work their
own passage to prosperity and independ-
ence. 1t is only selling the product of
their labor in the New York market, in
stead of having to buy all their food in st.
Louis.
We have limited at the danger from
hungry men with access to arms, with
bread visible through the window bars,
and money exposed on the bankers
counter. There is even worse conse-
quence OF eleemosynary idleness in the
weaker element of unemployed restitution.
Does any one wish to educate lazzaroni
Is any American con tent to have class
OF needy and shameless beggars? The
practice OF giving unearned aims will
create that class. 1t will become clamor.
ous-it will become corrupt. 1t will infect
and infest society. With one element
which may threaten property with bread
riots, and another which drifts without
hope into professional and chronic beg
gars, what can New Orleans expect of fu-
ture prosperity?
Let our charities then take the direc-
ton of demanding ONE labor for bread.
Ii labor has no land, and no pillow and
no seed-if it has no wood, or wool, or
leather-if it has no needle and no cloth.
supply each and all of these Indispensable
agents and enable labor to realize its duty
to God and to society. The necessity to do |
something for the relief of restitution is |
upon u.s.. The bread of charity will be
deprived Of its bitterness if it be leayened
and sweetened with the sweat of honest
oil.

AS A PREVENTIVE OF
DISEASE

We publish elsewhere communication
from DIR. Schuppert upon subject which
| is, to say the least, seasonable. It will
be seen that the doctor recognizes the
necessity Of adopting some plan and en-
ploying the proper means to prevent con-
tagious and epidemic dis eases being
brought in from foreign ports. Do ubtless
a perfectly strict quarantine, amounting
to non-intercourse, would prove effectual.
But this is not only undesirable, but i'm
practicable. For ordinary cases, perhaps,
detention of ten days would prove suf-
tlcient, yet it can not be denied that what
DR.. Schuppert says of the tenacity of in
fictitious diseases is true. Where the hold
and cargo Of ship are thoroughly satu-
rated with poisonous malaria, forty days
would not suffice to purify it, unless dis
infectants were employed.
We have before heard Dr. Perrys plan,
which is alluded to by DR.. Schuppert,
we'll spoken Of by experienced physicians,
and know that it was approved by the
Board of Health. Indeed, we believe
the present quarantine physician, DR..
Clark, employs similar treatment in all |
cases where it may seem to be necessary.
We defer to the faculty entirely in the
of the best means to secure ex-
clusicn. The fact that yellow fever has
been imported is too well established to |
admit of debate. 1t needs no doctor to
decide that point. But if any substitute
can be devised by which commerce may
be separated from disease, so that the
one can come speedily to port and the
other left down in the swamps, let us
have it at once
