OUR SMALL DEMOCRACY,

Our small Democratic friends in Louisi-
ana will pardon us if we do not attach the
smallest Importance to their views. They
know about as much of the Democratic
intentions as Dame Quickly did of 'the
mind of Anne Page" Our small Dem
ocracy promulgated the assertion that the
grand Democracy intended to take up the
woes of murdered Louisiana, but not only
were they snubbed in that expectation by
the Congressional Democracy at Washing
ton, which was mot at home" to Nessrs.
Burke and Zacharie, but they have been
strangely left out of the Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania platforms altogether.
Falstaff, when so sternly rebuked by
King Henry, remarked to his companions
that he would be ''sent for privately" and
our small Democracy have cherished, or
diffused similar expectation. The battle
is entirely too big for our small Democratic
reinforcement of political jayhawkers to
be of any consequence to either COM
blatant. Indeed, the disposition of both
national parties seems to be, to shake
them as pestilent pretenders.
The Western and Northern anti. Repub-
Ii can papers seem puzzled to determine
whether the Democrats should discard in
fation as a losing card and pile up on
hard money, or continue to rely upon the
morbid appetite for more paper, defeat
Tilden either in New York or in the nomi-
mating convention, and fight the centen-
NAL upon restoring the old continental
isipglass shinplasters with the busts of
Robert Morris, John Law, and Secretary
Memminger by way of illustration. The
Democrats of New York and Ohio are
utterly reckless who or what they support.
Horace Greeley and imitation have so de-
moralized them that they have become
political street walkers, who scoff at all
ideas of principle or propriety. Hence
we can not anticipate what they intend
next. Our small Democracy here being
metaphorically but the straw which,
- whrled round by every blast
ls carried I'll in some dogs tail at last,
have not word to say, but must await the
action of the leaders elsewhere. When
soeyer this decision shall have been made.
they will receive printed instructions from
the National Democratic Committee whom
to support, what measures to advocate and
what principles to discard.
Hence We find it unnecessary to discuss
any question with our small Democracy,
who are not authorized to commit their
party at present. They may have to eat
their own words, and as we have no dis
position to see fellow creatures devour dirt
of any sort, will not unnecessarily pro-
woke them to diet which, however IA
miliar, can not be either agreeable or nu-
tritious.

VERY TRYING,

The Opelousas Courier has had It's N ora,
sensibilities severely shocked by the
Packard-Leonard correspondence. The
occurrence is likened to the original
temptation in the Garden of Eden, which
is, as comparison, at once trite and in
applicable. 1t seems to us the more mod
ern temptation on the mount would do
better ser !ice, with Messrs. Packard and
Leonard i'll appropriate characters. 1t is
true the latter is not exactly asked to fall
down and worship, but ''to desert his
country in the trying hour of her ex-
istence."
With certain class of politicians,
every hour since the Democracy were ex.
PEELED from Office has been a "tryinR
hour" and the crisis will continue until
the day of their reinstatement. Then
will come the redemption, the jubilee, and
all that sort of thing. Such redeemers
overlook the fact that men like Mr..
Leonard carry their principles with them
wherever they go, and would be no more
likely to abandon or betray Louisiana,
when acting with the Republican party,
than when striving to foist the Democ-
racy into place. There is a material differ
ence between Louisiana in fact and Lou.
isiana as pictured by such rhapsodists as
the Opelousas Courier. Louisiana proper
is the people and property of the State,
very small fraction of both pertaining
Immediately to the school of which the
Courier is disciple. There is as little
danger of Mr.. Leonard betraying any
body, since Mr.. Packard wrote to him, as
there was before. and he is as worthy Of
trust as the editor of the Courier; or anvI
other politician Of North Louisiana. It
is grave mistake to suppose that q
patriot can only serve his country when
acting in the interest Of certain aspi-
rants for office, and that to become dis
gusted with them on account of their
sel6shness and narrow views, amounts
10 . betrayal Of any duty. ! ",4'''i -
Messrs. Penn, Phelps, Burke, Leonard,
Marks and Others, have recently been
specially singled out 70 V wept md

tzayezs of What? Why Louiaiapa, Of

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-10-19

though a minority in the Democratic
party, assume the functions of political
high priests and domineer over their asso-
ciates by threats and bullying. We un-
derstand it to be every mans right to
manage his own interests in his own way.
His duty as citizen begins and ends with
fidelity to himself and justice toward his
neighbor. Louisiana, as represented
by the Opelousas Courier stripe of
politicians, must not put herself
in antagonism with other citizens
who have interests, votes and influence.
If she does, she will always find herself
betrayed. There will always be "trying
hour" in the family when any portion OF its
members seek to ride rough shod over the
others or deny them an equal voice in the
management of affairs. Messrs. Leonard,
Penn and others whose names have Just
been put on the prescribed list by the
Democratic penholders, are perfectly well
qualified to judge of what they want and
what they wish Louisiana to have. Each
of these gentlemen is himself part of
Louisiana, one of the people, an integer
of the sovereign power. In modified
sense, they can do no wrong, being the
supreme authority SO far as their own &C.
ton is concerned. They may support or
oppose principle of government without
mourning the liability to any penalty, be-
cause they are clothed with the rights and
prerogatives of independent citizenship.
They may be right or wrong, but "Louisi-
ana. F" in the restricted political slang of
the day, has nothing to do with it, Louis
lana was made or acquired for the people,
not they for Louisiana. The gentlemen
assailed are, SO far as their votes and infu-
ence extend, the arbiters and rulers of
Louisiana, and if their neighbors do not
happen to agree with them, can only fall
back on the "trying hour" of their own
desperate fortunes.

How TRANSMISSION of Blood Operated
ON Brown.

Brown was very sick little while ago,
and the doctors were aboutto give him up.
1t is rarely doctors will give up anything,
but they were very near giving up Brown.
Although Brown wasn't very desperate
himself, yet the doctors assured him his
case was, and they furthermore told him
that desperate cases required desperate
remedies. They said there was only one
thing that could possibly save him, and
that was transmission of blood. They must
find some perfectly healthy man who
would submit to nave. quantity of blood
injected from his veins into those of
Brown Brown asked them Indignantly
if they thought they could pick him up
for blood-sncker in that way; but they
said he must do that or die, and it wouldn't
do to give it up so, Mr. Brown" So he
consented.
They sent for Jones, Browns particular
friend-though it would seem that a man
wasn't very particular who would allow
himself to be tapped in way like that
The operation was performed in a per-
fectly satisfactory manner, and Brown got
well. .... Ia.
And now the strangest part OF this story
is to be told. Brown imagines that he is
Jones and behaves in the most absurd
manner on account of that delusiOn. He
wears clothes several sizes too large for
him. because Jones is fat while he is lean.
Jones is bald-head, and Brown, who had
a good head Of hair, buys all the hair
restoratives he sees advertised, and is
rapidly reducing himself to Jones' condi-
| ton. 81 .t
The other night Mrs. Brown missed her
| husband and went in search Of him. She
found him sitting up with plump widow
Jones plump widow whom he (Jones)
was engaged to marry-the. well-known
propensity of widows to accommodate
themselves to circumstances preventing
her from discovering the mistake. Mrs.
Brown led him home by the ear, he pro-
testing all the while she ought to be
ashamed of herself taking Jones home
with her while her husband was away.
Brown attends all the funerals that
occur in the Jones family, occupying the
front seat with the mourners, and weeping
bitterly. He is sane in one thing, though
he absolutely refuses to pay any OF
Jones debts. But then Jones never pays
cent himself.
The situation is very embarrassing for
all parties concerned-Ctn Cincinnati iSatur-
day Night. s-.,g
