OUR sUPER-sOUTHERN NEIeHBOR.

The New Orleans Times has for the first
time rebuked the abuses of the Legisla-
ture perpetrated for the past ten years
The advocate and alleged participant in
many of those measures, the agent and
organ of him who was regarded as their
chief source, it has been silent until a
period when it actually denounces the
practices by which it in good part sub
sisted.
The Times seems to think it a safe road
to Southern popularity to abuse the New
Orleans REPUBLICAN, and the principal
force of its objection is that this paper is
the contractor for the public printing. 1t
is unnecessary to make any defense of the
system of employing public printer, and
of making the compensation for State
work aid in supporting journal which
represents the political sentiments of the
State. Whatever the merits or dement's
of the system, its adoption has been
sanctioned by every party that has ever
held the federal government or the
State government Of Louisiana. Blair
and Rives, Kendall and Armstrong
were public printers under the Dem
ocratic administrations from jackson
to Polk. Mr.. Richie, the veteran
defender of State rights. went to Wash
ington and was, as the lowest bidder,
made public printer. He subsequently

CORIINA WANTED,

1t is truly American manner in which
the government Of Mexico has been aided
without the slightest infringement upon
the dignity or the sensitiveness of our
neighbor. The correspondence between
the American commander and Colonel
Christie is at once candid and courteous.
American troops and vessels are placed at
the cooperative disposal of the Mexican
government, if they should need them, so
that the moral force of the United States
is felt beyond the Rio Grande without the
necessity Of forcing a passage into
neighboring territory. The forbearance
of the President and the prudence with
which he has RETAINED from any act of
violence or even Of discourtesy should
have a favorable effect at home and
abroad. It should teach our fellow citi-
zens that the President is not the ambi-
tious and designing aspirant that he has
been described. It will satisfy the Mex
lean government that there is no purpose
in our government Or people to seize on
any pretext to rob them Of territory.
Indications lead US to hope that peace
will overspread the turbulent people of
the border, and that our relations with
Mexico will be all that the most sincere
friends of both republics can desire.

AFTER TIE BOND DEBTORS,

The New York Tribune, which has be.
come cockney in sentiment since the
broad philanthropy of Horace Greeley
embraced the interests OF the whole
country, denounces with great bitterness
the unwillingness with which certain cor
porate authorities Of Illinois have met
their bonded obligations It takes a view
Of the honest countryman which would
have enragad Mr.. Greeley The city
grievance is this: The supervisors in GER
tain counties have declined to levy tax
which it would seem they were required
by law to do. Of these supervisors the
Tribune gives the following truculent
description:
The super isors are as general thing
dull men, of little education or knew led %
of the wOrld. whose notions Of ethics are so
imperfect tb It they acknowledge no public
obligations which can not be enforced BY
law. They do not deny that the county has
had the money and spent it, and that the
bondholders have paid full value for their
securities. They consider it their duty, how
ever, to ''act for their constituents and
avoid payment wherever it is possible. Two
or three pe,tifogging knaves, intent upon
their own small gains in the matter, are
enough to persuade these rural dignitaries
that by holding on and fighting their cred
itors in the courts they can finally escape
from paying anything.
This is first class notice, is it not?
But the city continues the fagellation of
the rural functionaries:
Some of these repudiating supervisors
are not worse than the common run of their
neighbOrs. They are men who are in the
habit OF paying their own debts, and who
sustain fair character in their community.
But their minds have been 50 poisoned by the
constant cackle of their village malcon-
tents, and by the denunciatiOns of capital
INDUCED in by ignorant demagogues, that
they have come to feel a perverted sense of
duty IN continuing their shameless opposi-
ton to the payment Of the debts of their
counties and towns.
They have been thus far sustained in
this stOlid rascality by personal impunity.
1t costs them nothing to fight the bond
holders.
This is pretty good specimen of cheek
coming from the concitoyens of Tweed
and Connolly. But the courts have taken
to ining these repudiating supervisors,
''for the which they will howl" Some of
these supervisors have been sued person
ally and directly
For damages resulting to clients from
the negligent or contumacious conduct Of
the supervisors. Some of the cases will be
tried in Springfield this week, and will en-
brace every category of the recent offenses
OF this class of officials; those in which
they have neglected to pay money due
without suit; those in which, being sued.
they have refused to pay; those in which
they have resisted judgments obtained, and
those IN which they have disobeyed the
mandamus of competent authority.

this storm which is now hurtling in Illi-
nois seems tending this way. The 7s;-

FELICIANA TO BE REDEEMED.

q late number Of the Patriot Democrat.
published in East Feliciana, is still for
war upon Office holders. 1. says, East
Feliciana has resolved to redeem herself
from negro and carpet-bag rule" Read
ing OF this resolve the public will natu-
rally wish to know who is to be slaughter
ed. For general information We publish
from the East Feliciana Tribune a list of
those having authority in the parish of
patriot Democrat resolves:
Parish judge. T. B. Lyons: clerk 0, Dis
frict Court, j. S. LaEi-r: tax collector.
James DeGrey; recorder, T. NJ. j. Clark:

II. Diamond: clerk police jury, F. d.
Brame; members of the police jury. John
Marston, president: Louis Jones. D. W.
Pipes, Henry Rivers and Joseph Gayden.
The Tribune says tina. with one excep-
ton the deputies and employees of the
above named ofice-holders are all of the
same political stripe. That they are so
leads us to think that the principals are
Democrats. And now that we look at
them. the names in the list have white
and resident appearance, with the excep-
ton OF Smith. A man by the name of
Smith can never be identified as belong
ing to any particular nation, race or
color. June Is the Pa!riot-D Democrat
says:
Regardless az to what may be the pro-
gramme marked out by the other parishes
OF the State, East Fr,iciana has resolved
to reueem herself from negro and carpet
bag rule.
Intelligent and honest officials are not
so much wanted By Democrats as native
white men. At least color and birthplace
are put up as the standard to march I'M
der when Feliciana redeems herself.

patches between the Governor and the

A correspondent Of the Bulletin gives an
account of the celebration of the fourth of
July at Atlanta, Georgia. Alexander H.
Stephens was the orator of the day. He
spoke in the depot which had round top
and such acoustic qualities that his voice
could not be heard above the footballs, din
and whisper of the audience. 1t seems the
orator had been placed on q platform car
which stood on the main railroad track. 1t
was probably the intention of the commit
tee to attach an engine and move Mr..
Stephens on to some other town in case he
did not close before sun down. This, how
ever, was made unnecessary by the feeble
condition Of the speaker. His strength
failed him in about two hours, and the
exercises closed, much happier in results
than the Vicksburg celebration.
