MISCELLANY.
A PR EssING APPEAL.

From the New Orleans Bulletin (Dem.) Nov. 1ith]
Keenan, has been heard from again. Just
who Keenan, is, must be beQueathed to pos
terity as problem altogether too -nebulous
for this generation to tackle. In knowing
that he is a jerker of special kilograms, we
know enough for all present purposes. Keen
an appears to dwell in Chicago, and he is the
person who first informed us that Wisconsin
had gone Democratic. He also sent various
other dispatches of like reliable and cheer
ing nature. For two or three days he was
monopolized by the Times. He was the
Times own, and the way our neighbor parad-
cd him, and made much of him, and stuck
him among the display advertisements, until
you could hardly tell whether he was q sew
ing machine or vermifuge-thc way they
manipulated him, and had him in several
places at time, was beautiful aud instruct
i've to behold. But the monopoly has been
crushed. Keenan, is not luxury to be selfish
| ly enjoyed by one alone. The Democrat has
got him now-got him bad and yesterday he
unfolded himself to our neighbors in words
to this effect
Especial to New Orleans Deinocrat.l
CHICAGO, Nov. 10th, - A. NJ Wisconsin
is hopelessly lost. All eyes and all hopes turn
to Louisiana. IL you tamely submit to dis
reimbursement the end is defeat for the hope
of Reform. The North will say godspeed to
a cleaning of the Paekard-Kelogg scoundrels.
The boast here is that Kellogg means to count
all the Democratic parishes out the men who
do this shonld not be permitted to desecrate
the earth. KEENAN,.
The Democrat heads this "a Pressing APP
peal.' So it is. A pressing appeal from
| keenan,. keenan, appears to desire blood, and
tumut several hundred miles distant from
Chicago. Still, although he qualities his wish
he calls for gore and trouble all the same.--
Louisiana is under the eye of the nation Kee-
nan says. A hundred thousand expectant
Office holders turn their hungry faces toward
Louisiana to know whether we are to put them
in or turn them out. If we "tamely submit
to disfranchisement shrieks Keenan,, the
end is defeat for the hope of Reform" He
means also that it is the defeat Of the 100, 900
expectants. He doesn't say that. II is not
necessary We and Keenan, understand each
other. We know what's the matter with
Keenan,, and he knows what he's after. And
we will do keenan, the justice to say we believe
he is entirely in earnest in the sentiment that
it were better to see the streets of New Or
leans waist deep in blood, and the cutters
clogged with human corpses, than that the
minions of despotism should deny the noble
army of Democratic expectants their long
sought prey. We think so too. The only diff
ference that can possibly arise between us and
Keenan, is on the question Who is to furnish
the bodies and the gore? That question still
interposes itself to mar the perfect harmony
that otherwise makes us and Keenan, one
Explain this one awkward matter, Keenan,,
and we're with you. We do not ask you to
tell us who you are, for that is immaterial-
We only want to know where the gore is COM
ing from, and who is to bruise the despot's
head. A thousand voices in Louisiana are
echoing this heathless query. A thousand
eyes have fixed you, Keenan,, with their phos-
phorescent glare.
