MISS MARY Andersen.

In the Louisville Courier journal OF
the 10th instant we see Il stated that
this brilliant young star has formed o
series OF engagements for the present
season. She goes next week to st. Louis
to fill en- engagement just made to play
at DeBar's Opera House. thence she
goes to Cincinnati To fulfill on engage
ment at Woods Opera House, com
mencing May 1, for ono week. taking
a benefit on tho evening of tho 9Th.
when she plays Meg Msrillies.' From
Cincinnati the young lady goes to Wash
ington aud Baltimore to fulfill engage
meuts under the management OF Mr.
Ford in those cities.
Miss Anderson has chosen Meg
Merilliss" as her forte, and she has had
the compliment paid her by brilliant
aud well known gentleman OF TINS city
OF writing expressly for her m entirely
new act 10 the play OF Guy Mnnnerlng
(Which will be tho first act OF the play
ia tivo scenes) introducing "Meg" when.
in the prime of her life. she Is driven
with her people from the lands OF Ellen
gowan and prophecies woe to Inc
house. This will not only give greater
play to the genius OF Miss Anderson
but add greatly to the interest OF The
play itself and we trust our citizens
will have the pleasure Of seeing tho tail
young debutante enact the same nex'
coming season.

THE OrJTLtDOK.

From all parts OF the State we have
reports OF tho most encouraging charac-
ter. In all the parishes the work OF
organization has begun, and there can
be no doubt as to the result In Novem-
ber. We predict not less than 3o,ooo
majority for the Democratic ticket. a
noticeable feature Is the wholesale do
serton Of Radicalism by the colored
men. This is seen in every community.
and it Ia evident that vast number o.
ooorcd votes will be east for the Demo
cratic nominees. This accounts for the
utterahces of negro chieftalns like
pinchback and Bruce. These men see
that the negroes are no longer to be
tamely led by the Radicals. that. with
his instinct Of self-interest. the negro
has discerned that his welfare demands
that ho should ally himself with the
white people Of tho South. aud. con
scin,,s that tho coloted people can
no longer be controlled aa an unthins-
ing. unreasoning mass OF voters, Pinch
back and Bruce arc conforming to the
popular current. in the hope OF being
borne into successful prominence upon
It's bosom. Nor Is the negro going by
halves into this reformatory move. He
will not be attracted by conservative
radicnism. He will not take kindly to
desertcrs from the Republican party.
Greeley and Sumner are evidences oi
this. The negro will act boldly with
the Democratic party. The name
sounds respectable in his ears. and tho
negro avowing himself u Democrat feels
that the name Is his title deed to re-
spectability. In the strong negro par
ishes OF this State there are numbers oil
oolored Democrats. and. voluntarily
thousands of them will vote for the
Democratic nominees.
Let us have the Convention in July
OF August, Let tho best men Of each
parish be sent to the Convention. Let
the ablcet. truest. most tried and
trusted men be nominated as candidates
for all positions. for there Is no doubt as
to the result. BY the first OF Decem.
ber this nightmare of Radical usurpa.
ton will have vanished forever. Let
trimmcrs and neutrals and fence strad
dlers take notice and govern themselves
accordingly.

GLOOMY Accounts.

The reports coming IN from along the
upper river are gloomy indeed In
Mississippi, Arkansas and Louisiana
disastrous breaks have occurred, which
will blast the hopes Of many poor
planter. In our own State we have the
satisfaction OF knowing that for several
years our people have been robbed in
takes their money and gives nothing in
return. The recent correspondence
published in the papers in relation to
the crevassc in Milliken's bend demon
strates the fact OF what an utterly
worthless fraud the Levee Company is,
though doubtless the tax for the benefit
of the company will be just as rigor-
ously collected.
We can only hope that the sad condi-
tion of our river planters in the low
lands from Cairo To the Passes will de-
termine Congress to take the matter in
hand, and assume the care Of the whole
levee system.
We noticed in the report Of the break
at Duck Ridge that the water was
higher, and went over places that had
never been under water before.
We imagine the daily papers who but
a short time ago were ridiculing the
reports OF the disastrous flood which was
coming. now think the eXtravagant
young man was about right.
We are sorry to hear that the pianta
ton OF our worthy fellow citizen, Mr..
Henry Frellsen, has been overnowed
by the back water OF the Bonnet Care
crevasse, and the crop destroyed. We
trust that il may not prove so disastrous.
A fearful volume of water is now pour
ing through Bonnet Carre; the rise be-
ing SO rapid, and the pressure coming
so suddenly upon the back leyees, which
were built to throw off the water, as to
break through one Of them in the case
of Mr.. Frellsen.
The New Orleans Democrat., 1876-04-19

The Mississippi Legislature has ad.
journed sine die. They so with Il clear
record 20 their homes. They have saved
their mother State. Ames, Davis and
Cardoza have been removed and true
men are in their places. Wholesome
laws have been passed, and every inter
est of the State advanced.
The State securities have advanced
greatly in value. and the right of
tyranny and lawlcssness has gone for
ever. All honor to the members of
the Mississippi Legislature. They
would not compromise with the rob-
bers: they could not be wheedled or
bought; they could not be intimidated
they were last ditchers," who dared
all FOR the liberties of their State and
people.
We hope that the people Of Louisiana
will emulate the good example of their
brethren Of Mississippi, and elect, this
fall, to the Legislature. men who will
truly represent them. Then will be
seen the redemption Of Louisiana, aud
prosperity, in all departments Of life,
Will result.

Central Council Property Holders Union

The regular weekly meeting OF this
Council was held last evening in Grune-
wald Hall, the President, Mr.. Mitchell,
in the chair. The roll was called by
Secretary Wharton and quorum
found present The minutes Of fhe last
meeting were then read and approved,
with some amendments. The Secretary
read a communication from the Six
teenth Ward proposing amendments to
the constitution. which was received !;
also one from the Tenth Ward Union
recommending the prosecution by the
Council of suit contesting the validity
of all bonds issued bv the city Of New
Orleans since 1852, and announcing the
determination of the Union to resist by
every lawful means the levying of the
tax for the New Orleans Pacific Rail-
road. The communication was re-
ceived
The Council then proceeded with the
consideration Of the new constitution
and bylaws, which were discussed until
adjournment.
The New Orleans Democrat., 1876-04-19

We are assured that our Congressman
viii move at the proper time for full
Investigation into all the doings of the
Federal officials here.
The Customhouse will be investigated
from turret 70 foundation stone" The
rascalities practioed in all of its depart
ments will be exposed Packard's office
will afford rich nuggets. The arrest of
innocent, peaceful citizens on blank
Warrants, the outrases of Merri and
Seelye. the affidavit forgeries, and all
the sooundrelism and oppression that
have disgraced the government under
the manipulations OF the Boss will be
exposed, and evidences of his guilt so
damning 0e found. that nothing will re-
main but his prosecution and punish
ment. There is no blacker chapter in
the annals of crime than that written
by this man, who has been bold only
because he felt that lawless admins
tration would protect him in all Of his
outrages perpetrated upon a defenceless
people.
From the overthrow Of lawfully
elected Government down to the incar-
ceration OF peaceful citizens for political
purposes, there is nothing in the eata-
logue of crime that cannot be found in
the doings Of the Federal Marshal Of
Louisiana.
We learn that the Construction De-
partment, the Bankrupt Court, and all
the branches OF the Federal service
here, will be thoroughly investigated.
Our Congressman are alive to this
DUTY, and the people may rest assured
tnat when they move there will be no
chiid's play Let the work begin. at
once.

Tho lower House OF the Legislature
addressed Judge Hawkins out of office.
Both houses abolished his court, but
Kellogg has pocketcd the bill and does
not sign IL,
We predicted this result, We knew
that Kellogg would never consent TO
have this partisan court abolished. He
holds the unsigned act over Hawkin's s
head. and Jacob will have TO decide ms
Kellogg may dictate. or off will go his
head.
There Is comfort in knowing that the
election in November will right all
these wrongs.

Bile men are elected TO the bench. We
have had misery enough from corrup-
tion aud raseality in the courts.

We had the pleasure Yesterday OF
seeing our young friend ID. G. Noise
take a new departure. Reverend Father
Allen blessed the happy pair. The
bride was lovely and the bloom on her
roay checks gave evidence that she was
not unwilling. The bridegroom looked
very bravo ns he took possession OF his
beautiful partner "for better or for
worse" Our kindeat ana best wishes
we'll out towards them on the auspi-
cIouH occasion and our petition has
gone up 60 the Fatos that their blended
lives may be woven with threads Of silk
and gold.
The fortunate couple. after treating
their friends TO cakes and wine, took

honeymoon will shine brightly upon
them and we hope. never will set.
