TIE ORATOR OF THE DAY.

In order to give room to the admirable, ap-
propriate, comprehensive. statesm anlike and
patriotic address of Gov. Hendricks delivered
yesterday at the Fair Grounds, we are obliged
to omit other matters of interest, and to alb.
breviate or defer editorial comment on this
and other subjects.
The opening days attendance was, as usual,
small; but our guest and invited orator had
an audience as large as his voice could reach.
He spoke from carriage in front of the grand
stand. The attention, from the opening SEN
tence to the graceful close, was profoundly
respectful and silent, except when the eager
listeners broke out into demonstrations OF
applause.
The address was most admirably fitted for
the occasion, for the audience, for the local
ity, for the period and for the very worthy
and distinguished citizen of another State.
who has kindly consented to come thousand
miles from his home to talk to the people of
Louisiana about their present condition and
their future prospects.
The address is in itself summary and epit-
OIuo VI cCOuUmlC uAiUMS Will tAclI Aluetid-
tons. In delivery it was plain, frank and
earnest: in language, as will be seen, it is ele-
CANT, vigorous, scholarly and impressive. 1t
was pleasant to hear, and it will be profitable
to read here and elsewhere. 1t is sound and
thorough in doctrine, and noble, patriotic,
cordial and phianthropic in sentiment.
His treatment of the mighty Mississippi as
q. bond Of perpetual and iudefeasible union
among the people who dwell in its vast valley
is beyond praise. His advice as to the neces-
sity of diversified industries is timely and
worthy. His enunciation of the great theory
of State independence is clear and logical.
His hopeful views of the future for this and
other States are eloquently expressed. His
representation of the certain foreign demand
for Southern products is full of encourage.
ment His prediction of a return of justice
and friendship to the relations of the South
with the North sounds like true prophecy.
The Governor was heard throughout with
profound attention. His hearers were i'm
pressed with his dignifed, sincere and noble
bearing. His is one of the IA ost manly, mag
unanimous, benevolent and philosophic faces
we have ever seen, and his address is much
the most liberal. generous and just that we
have heard from Northern man since the
close Of the war.

In sparsely settled districts, where medical
aid is often difficult and sometimes impossi-

families to have in the house some reliable

IMPEACHMENT.

We have been supplied with copy OF
memorial demonstrating against the impeach-
nent of the Governor by the House of Repre-
sentatives, and of the names Of the signers,
consisting of about sixty firms and individuals
largely interested in the commerce and well
fare of the city. We are informed that the
memorial was printed late in the day and cir
culated for signatures after considerable
proportion Of men in business had left their
offices. The signers, however, represent more
than ten millions of the active capital of this
city, and in another day the list could easily
be SO increased as to embrace more than half
the capital invested in New Orleans.
This expression is spontaneous, and, as
will be seen, it comes chiefly from men who
do not have much to say about or to do in
political matters. The impression derived
from the non-ac.ion of the House from the
Sd of January to the Goth of February, fifty.
four days, created the general impression that
nothing of the kind was likely to be DONE
Hence the memorial was prepared and circu-
lated in haste and without formalty. It is
plainly intended as q memorial to the House
of Representatives, and, as such, will be adj
dressed to that body. The document and
signatures are as follows:
MEMORIAL.
We the undersig ed, who are largely engaged
in business here desire to express our unquali-
fed disapprobation of the attempt on the part of
the House Of Representatives to impeach, at this
time, Gov. Kellogg. Such q measure would be
calamity full OF damage to The commercial in
terests Of this city. It would cause distrust Of
the future among all classes Of men interested in
business here. 1t would damage the credit of
the city and Of it's citizens. 1t would drive away
capital and prevent other capital from being sent
here for investment. It will deter Congress from
passing levee bill, for it is well known that
Democrats and Republicans in that body almost
unanimously regard the solemn compromise of
April, 1874, as binding in honor and in conscience.
It will make for Louisiana armies Of enemies
abroad, and no new friends here or elsewhere.

Outside Opinion.

Nevada journals, outside OF
Storey County, are suggesting to
county conventions the importance
of selecting Legislative tickets COM
posed of men sound on the bullion
tax question. 1t is recommended
that mono should be nominated that
are uuwili .ng to pledge themselves
as opposed TO the repeal OF the pres
ent law taxing the net proceeds on
bullion. In order to guard against
the repeal of the law, conventions
should nominate none but taxpayers,
those who have an interest at stake.
Nevada Legislatures heretofore have
been largely composed of men who
had no property interest involved.
and in many instances, they lett for
other States on the adjournment OF
the Legislature. BY nominating
those only who are identified vita
the industries of Nevada, we have no
fear of the bonanza kings of the Com
stock being able to shirk their p"r-
ton of the tax toward the mainte-
nance of our State government

Down in Nevada the boys are pre-
vented by State enactment from bet
ting that either Tilden. Hayes or "any
other man" will be elected The
stupiilty of such law is evident
from the general license which char
acterizes all other kinds of betting
in that country. II is an offshoot Of
puritanical doctrines and ought tn
be wiped out.-rThe Idaho Ava.
lsnche.
The Avalanche misapprehends the
object of the law. Ii is not to pre-
vent betting alone that it was enact
ed. for so far as the morality of the
mere wagering is concerned it is as
bad to bet on q horse-race or any
other event of chance as upon the re-
cult of an election. Betting on cleo
tions, however, has quite a different
aspect from any other sort of gam
bling. In the first place it leads the
betting class to make the ballot a
matter for mercenary gam or loss,
and robs it therefore of its most i'm.
portant character as preserver Of
liberty and promoter of good gov
eminent. 1t also leads to election
frauds through a means well under
stood and for reason tina. is equal,
clear. The law was enacted for tn
sole purpose of shielding election
from the inroads of dishonesty, an,
- such it is one of the best on tn
statute books.

POLITICAL INDICATIONS.

Bnt little interest or excitement
t.chcs thus far to the coming State
canvass. After the cath instant,
when the Republican nominations
win be made, We may expect more
enthusiasm. Thus far speculation
merely on who will be placed on the
ticket by the State Convention is
aoout all that one hears in political
circles, except vague hints and under
tone queries as to the bullion tax
question and its probable influence
on the election. Probabilities have
not been altered in any material re-
speet since last We glanced at the
situation in these columns. Wren
and belong are prominent rs candi-
dates for Congress, while Powning of
The Reno Journal gives notice now
and then that he will appear in the
field in command of very respeeta-
BILE and equally loyal following. Mr..
Powning. however. is not regarded
as dangerous foe to other Republi-
can aspiran,s for Washington honors,
He is good wire puller, AMI in fu-
ture years may be able to make his
experience and skill count. For the
present we believe he will be per-
mitted to devote his whole time 70
the conduct of The Journal.
The public would like to see De-
Long accept the nomination, as IN
him they would feel sure of an able
representative. one who would COM
mand the ear of the House in almost
any emergency. But there is some
little conflict felt by sasaeious poll
ticians between his nomination and
that Of Judge Rising for the Supreme
bench. Both belong to Storey coun-
ty, aud other parts Of the State might
feel Jealous at the bestowal of the
two most important Offices upon men
from one narrow region, DeLong is
shrewd politician enough to see II
himself, and he is warm friend Of
Judge Rising's. He will therefore
most likely not allow his name TO
come before the convention. He Is
also believer in Tom Wren, who
was once associated with him in the
practice Of law,
Calonel Wood Of The Enterprise
is said to be still eager for the nomi-
nation, notwithstanding his paper
published a contrary announcement
HIS friends, whose vision extends
considerably beyond their noses, do
not offer him any encouragement.
Whom the Democrats will name for
the same Office is matter more for
their consideration than ours Judge
Seawell is mentioned by them as
probable candidate for the Supreme
Judgeship. H would in that posi-
ton be the strongest man the party
could possibly bring forward. Re-
publicans and Democrats alike in
this Judicial District are afraid that
he will accept The nomination, As in
that case they would have to elect
his successor this fall, and they do
net know of a single available man
who is his equal.

ITS LEGAL ASPECT.

One hear. many indefinite state
ments and vague rumors concerning
| what is to he done within the next
twelve months in the bullion tax
matter. The constitutional conven-
ton, some say, is aimed at repeal of
that section of the constitution pro-
viding for the taxation of the pro-
ceeds IF mines. The section says
nothing about net proceeds, and SO
far as supplying that adjective is con-
cerned it might he well to amend the
constitution. But even then it would
be work OF supererogstion, as the
statute which is based upon 1t Is
quite clear and explicit. A further
alteration of that portion of the con-
stitution would meet with public
disspproval, aud inasmuch as any
amendment or alteration made by a
convention has subsequently to be
submitted to the people for ratihca'
ton and approval, We are sure ii
would be voted down.
The danger that taxpayers in gen
eral have to fear in connection with
this proposition of abolishinS the
bullion tax does not lie in the possi-
bilities Of constitutional conven-
ton. The greatest evil which could
entail upon taxpayers would be the
expense attending it without CORE
spending assurance of benefit. The
plan the bonanza men will most like
ly adopt will be to elect men tn the
legislature suitable TO their designs,
and then rush through repeal of
the present law under which the tax
is collected. /, will be remembered
how hard strucg i, was to get the
law through in the first place, and 1t
may also he recalled to mind how
Colonel Summer. by shrewd dodge
in behalf of the mining men, spoke
for four consecutive hours in opposi-
ton to the measure, carrying the
LEGISLATURE out of its term and thus
setting the law back two more years.
This demonstrates the zeal and power
of the opposition, and shows that in
parallel case they would move the
vcrv stones of the Capitol to secure
repeal of that which they So siren
uou.ly opposed at first.
But masmuch as the constitution |
provides explicitly for equal taxation,
declares that the proceeds Of mines
shall be taxed as other property and
that the mines themselves shall not |
