ever little they may agree with the high
sounding professions of devotion to civil,
religious and political rights to all men.
This writer thinks the laboring classes Of
the South do not differ materially from
those of the North or Europe. He thinks
they are possessed of as much muscle
and strength, lacking intelligence in some
cases, but believes that if they were
| properly treated, and dealt with fairly,
there would not be the trouble and strife
I there now is between the planter and
laborer
Speaking of those who employ laborers
in the South, he says:
The great point aimed at is to keep pros
perity beyond their reach, so as to place in
the hands of the employers substitute for
the Old-time lash. No Inducements are held
out to them to buy. rent, or even farm on
shares, for the reason that the chances to
swindle them out of all except a scanty
living would be somewhat cut off. Employ
ers prefer keeping them poor, so as to bet
ter enable themselves to control them in
their way. Life and liberty are essential to
the happiness of every human being, even
OF the poor negro: and just IS long as this
feeling exists toward the laboring classes
black or white, SO long will the South re-
main poor. And the reason why Northern
labOrers are no better, when they by chance
get down among them, is that they are
expected to receive the same treatment,
and to put up with the same accommoda-
lions. as the negro, to sleep in the same
cabin, and eat the same kind of food served
up in some Out-Of the-way shanty or open

treatment, except in case OF extreme
necessity.
The writer further says it is impossible
for those who come down here on short
visits of health and pleasure to see these
facts as they really exist. They, must
come here and live-not in the St. Charles
Hotel-but in the towns and cities
throughout our State and upon our plan
tations. In those places they would have
ample opportunities afforded them of |
realizing what the White League is
capable of doing in case of political |

THE AUDITORS REPORT.

We have received copy of the report
of the State Auditor for the past year.
The receipts have fallen off about nine
per cent, chiefly owing to the overflow
last summer. New Orleans has paid q
fraction over sixty per cent Of the total
amount received, which foots up
SO, 514, 332 AZ, of this amount S737, 1872 60
is for account of the interest fund, against
only $500 so drawn for the payment
Of coupons. The total expenditures foot
up S3,O6S, 101 %. All the funds, except
the school. and interest funds, are ex-
hausted, as usual, with outstanding war
rants for the years from 1865 to 1874, in
elusive, to the amount of 81, 423, 9S5 68.
All these warrants, however. except for
those of 1874 Current series), amounting
to s254, 1927 II, are fundable in consoli-
dated bonds. Nearly all the outstanding
warrants are drawn against the general
fund. The Auditor makes some recon-
to which we desire to call the
special attention of the boiling members
of the General Assembly, in the hope that
when they next present themselves for
popular favor they may found their
claims upon what they have done, not
upon what they promise to do.

The Bulletin has recently experienced a
slight change in its editorial management.
The material has been purchased by MIR.
George H. Vinten, and the conduct of the
paper committed to the hands of Page NJ.
Baker, Esq, one of its original founders.
MIR. Baker is an able, experienced jour-
nalist, who is entitled to very much of the
credit that pertains to the former success
of the Bulletin, and is we'll and favorably
known to all classes of both political par
ties. While regretting that his Splendid
talents can not be employed in our politi-
cal cause, we wish for him, personally
and pecuniarily, every success in his pres
ent enterprise. There will probably be
little or no change in the general course
of the paper, as Mr.. Baker has heretofore
exercised supervising influence over its
columns.
