THAT EXTRA SESSION.

: The BULLETIN has, from time to time, de
clared its unbelief in an extra session, and "
have seen nothing to convince US that ther
was any surety of the terms of the Wheele
compromise being carried out. We have neye
been able to discern wherein it was to Kel
logg's interest to call an extra session Of tn
Legislature, and we have all along thought W
saw very clearly how such a session would b.
Objectionable to him What has he to gain
by it?
The recognition by the House so-called o
the legality of his government? No, for he
obtained that when the majority Of the eau
Gus affixed their names to the Wheeler terms.
The more united support of his Radical
friends? No, for they see danger to them
selves in this extra session. The support and
respect of the Conservatives? No, he could
never have hoped for that, for it would be a
useless reaching after the unattainable or
striving after the impossible.
Would he be enabled to seat himself any
more firmly than Grants bayonets and the
action of the majority of the Caucus have
seated him? Certainly not He is absolutely
secure now from any violent interference until
Grant or the United States authorities turn
against him the bayonets that foisted him
into power. We fancy the gentlemen who
took their lives in their hands and went
out to meet the armed minions of the
usurpation will be very slow to move against
it now under any conceivable circumstances
inasmuch as the representatives, Of people have
signed document which places them in an
exceedingly unenviable light if not in Grim
inal attitude, before the people Of the whole
country. No, Kellogg is secure as he stands
He wants no extra session and he will have
none unless the orders come from his masters
at Washington.
How likely those orders are to come may be
inferred from the following very signif cant
which we clip from the special
dispatch to the New Orleans Republican, under
date Of Washington, March 6, 1875:
A member of the committee who will adj |
ust the Louisiana differences informed your |
that the matter of an extra |
session of the Legislature will rest entirely |
With Gov. Kellogg; that the committee will |
'elrain from even suggesting it, that their
abor will end when those entitled to seats in
he Lower House of the Legislature are
designated. d. d. C.
If that statement be true-and we have
ound the Republicans dispatches much more
eliable than its editorial utterances-an extra
ession may be regarded as one of the things
7hich will never come to pass
1t is possible, however, that Mr. Wheeler
nay be induced to issue an order in the shape
t a request to Kellogg to convene the Legis-
sture, and, in that event, no doubt the call
ill be made.
It is too early just nov to discuss the re-
llts of that call. One thing, however, is
1re, the Legislature which will assemble I
nder it will be entirely destitute OF the most {
ssentinl elements Of guilty.

CALL YOU THIS BACKING YOUR
FRIENIS?

The Chicago Tribune, the leading Radical
paper of the Northwest, occasionally blurts
out the truth in a way not altogether COM
Plimentary to some of its Louisiana party
friends Here is what it has to say about
the unseating of Sypher and the admission
of George A. Sheridan into the House of
Representatives
Among the men who have been conspicu-
GUS IN Congress, and Extensively conspicu
GUS. was one }. ii. Sypher holding a seat as
member from the city of New Orleans
This man never was elected, and that fact
has been notorious to every member of the
louise from the first day of meeting Yet
the House permitted him 10 retain his seat to
the exclusion of the man rightfully elected
until the last hours of the session, when they
declared him never to have been elected, and
then admitted the rightful claimant Sypher
i'll the meantime has drawn his two years
salary.
AT the same time, the House admitted Mr..
Sheridan to seat from New Orleans. In 1872.
flnchback was o candidate at large for Con
gtess on the Kellogg ticket; in counting in
Kellogg and the others, Pinchback was also
counted in. Subsequently PInchback was
elected to the Senate 10y the Kellogg Lagisla-
lure, ana has spent two years yainly trying to
get mot that body. The House has kept the
pace vacant Tor two years, for the reason, it |
was alleged, to admit Plnchhack should he
abandon the claim to seat in the Senate and
in the meantime has excluded Sheridan, who
had been lawfully elected.
AT the last moment the House admitted
Sheridan. 1t is hardly necessary to comment |
on this gross injustice, and We refer to II mora
particularly at tn time as another evidence
gwen by the House that the election of the
Kellogg ticket in Louisiana in 1872. was. to
say the least, very dubious The House At
last repudiated Plnchback's election to ,bat
body as fraud and the Senate repudia,ed
flnchback's election to that body as the act

POksNH FUN AT GREATNESS.

The New York Tribune finds food for COM
ment III the tendency of an irreverent age to
make fun Of everything great and good in the
| past and present. The recent recurrence of
Washington's birthday has afforded an in.
stance of this. Of there is great tigure in
history, it goes on to say, "calculated by its
| dignity to strike the most inveterate Joker
dumb. it is that OF the Father of the Country.
In the first place, he was himself sobiety in
| carnate. In the course OF a long and active
| life, associaing constantly with his fellow
countrymen III the discharge of public dufy,
Washington was always serious, and carried
himself with kind of aristocratic reserve
owe can It member on y two tests attribute
| to him, ana but one Of them was good one
Almost while living he passed into the demi-
god stage, and he has stayed there ever since,
until men, grown weary of SO much good
ness and greatness, Lave revolted, and have
refre he'd themselves by considering him as
human being Long ago, Mr.. John
Brougham, in his short-lIved comic newspa-
per, printed various jokes based upon letter
written by Washington ordering pair of
leather breeches, which he particularly de-
sired should be made sufficiently large. Then
came the Little Ratchet story, which took
with the pubic wonderfully, and has been
travcsti q until its capabilities are about ex-
haus ed.
"Of course it did duty the other day, but
the most ingenious funny man can not
make much out of it nov. 1t is deal easier
10 start entirely original jokes to say, as one
newspaper does, that Washington combed
his own hair when he was only i've years old |
parting il behind with wonderful precision
or thlt he never got up in the morning at |
o'clock, ard howled because his breakfast
wasn't ready or that when he whistled his |
mouth had sanity expression rarely seen |
this side OF Paradise; while one editor actual
ly spetks in a free and easy way of Sc. W. !
and another thinks it a pity that he had no
middle name"
Cancerning the Force bill, the Washington
Republican said the other day: "The passage
Of the bill is required to preserve to tue Re
publican party the electoral votes of the
Safes. That is plain and out
sp7ken. These Radical bills are not for the
. bleeding negro" and the intilnidated
Northern man" They were brought into the
National Legislature only to "preserye the
party'-to re-elect Grant.
