"a Democrat. "(?)

The endeavor to take in the gulla-
BILE with the letter signed "A Demo-
craft" in the Natchitoches Republican
of last week, is too transparent to de-
ceive the most stupid. In the first
plaea. that individuals Democracy
NH lave been of the weakest sort
to have been turned to Radicalism
for 80 small q cause; we assert that
opportunity was all that gentleman(')
required, and are of the impression
he is one of the Several" who would
have joined the Republican party
last year, had not the people made it
rather to warm ut that time for dis
play Of maullin demagogism.
All this talk Of men of principle re-
cnntiag their Democracy, is the veri-
est twaddle. At this moment poor
Louisiana is laboring under, not only
tho ills of thieving government, but
she has to support the presence of a
lot of rotten office hunters OF the
"silent ortler," who although ostensi-
bly, with the people, are still their
worst enemies. The true men are
making note of these reptiles they
are ,ceN kno,cn, and in future, not
"withstanding their protestations and
seeming zeal, they will DO placed
where they belong.
TO the clause of "A Democrats
naming the leaders who have "form'
ell a ring" or are engaged in some
dark and mysterious movement; We
defy him to do so; dare is a more
proper expression, and we await with
trembling and painful anxiety, the
result of his squib.
We have seen some artillery in onr
life, but if this "piece' is not Of the
smallest calibre we have seen to M
purpose. Every Radical who is
ashamed to own his allegiance to his
party, and who desires to preserve his
responsibility here, loudly proclaims
the fact Of his being "a Democrat,
but the can't is too old to wash. The
lions skin does not cover the ass.
We desire to inform that class Of
individuals, that their presence in
the ranks of the Democracy will be
dispensed with in thu; future, for their
services are of such questionable
utility as to make it matter Of nc
moment to Us whore they are.

Sale of Currency for City Script.

The second sale of currency under
the new city regulation took place at
the Mayors office on Saturday last,
April 10th, in the presence Of n num-
Der Of persons; the bidding was
quite spirited, and the sum realized
to the city by the sale quite satisfac-
tory.
We cannot refrain from compli-
menting our worthy Mayor, DeVar-
gas, for his endeavors to place the
funds of tie city upon proper foot
ing; the stealage Of $4,000, by Red
mond, the Radical city collector in
1874, from a $4,000 levy, made the
task Of getting our local government
even once more, almost hopeless !;
but by wise measures and judicious
management, nearly $4,000 over and
above the assessment have already
been absorbed.
The salaries of officers have been
reduced and all expenses cnrtailed,
and one more year of this admins
tration will place us on a firm footing.
The following is the schedule of
the sale:

We give below from tho N. 0.
Bulletin, a nice bit of "reform meas
ure'' for our blatant Radical friends
to discuss, and We are of the opinion
their reflections will not be so cheer
ing, not that they will cry over this
seeming want of virtue in their par
ty leaders, but pure tears of madness
for not being one Of the happy re.
cipients Of some Of the peoples mon

The Legislature, or rather the two
Houses presided over respectively by
Michael Hahn and Caesar Antoine, it
will he remembered, passed an appro-
priation of $l55,OOO for mileage and
per diem of the members thereof. This
appropriation necessarily included
the fifty three Conservative members
returned by tho Returning Board. as
the Radical members.
Immediately before the adjourn
mcnt Of the aforesaid Legislature, one
of the Conservative members went in,
and shortly after three others took
the oath from Hahn, who, by the
way, had no authority to administer,
it; and those four Conservatives got
their warrants, and it is to be pre-
sumed have realized upon them. It
now transpires that there has been a
first-class swinIle perpetrated upon
the forty nine Conservative members.
The certificates for their pay have
been illegally and fraululently issued
by the committee having charge of
the matter, and the money has gone
into pockets for which it was never
intended.
This is barefaced and most un-
mitigated swindle, and we call the
attention of Attorney General Field
to the matter. 1t is his duty to pro-
sscnte all persons who rob tho State,
and it is a duty he cannot avoid or
escape without rendering himself H.
able to the charge Of conniving 3
fraud.
We suppose tho members who have
thus been egregiously swindled will
have a recourse against tho State, and
that some legislative relief will ne
cessarily be granted but it will be
a tedious matter and the Taxpayers
will, in the end, have to settle for
this rad on the State Treasury.
