Hon. GIDEON WELLS, a prominent
Republican, together with many 9th
ers Of the same political faith, have
given in their adherence to Tilden and
Hendricks, and will do all within their
power to secure their election. The
tide grows and swells all along the
shore, and every day finds new con
yerts to the Democratic faith. Who
can gainsay the fact that our party is
increasing in numbers and influence
every day? We confidently look for
an overwhelming victory in November
next. Let every Democrat do his
duty

BAYoSETs Grant has ordered his
minions TO gather up soldiers to send
down South this fall in order to intim'
idate ard overawe the people at the
polls, and thus prevent full and fair
election. His object is to excite and
inhame the Southern Democrats, and
causethem to do some rash act which
will operate as n pretext for him to
declare the States in rebellion and thus
enable the Radical party to retain con-
troll of the Government. We fendly
trust that, in his infamous designs, he
will be frustrated. What the people
of the South should do i to keep cool,
refuse to he excited, and stand peace
fully, yet firmly. by their principles,
and roll up increased Democratic ma
jorities. Give them no opportunity to
raise hue and cry 7of rebellion. The
order of Don Cameron, War Secretary,
will recoil upon his own party with
ten-fold severity if Democrats are true
to Themselves in the South, and that
which was intended for their injury
will prove To have been blessing.

JuDoE DURHAM. Every true Dem
ocrat in the district owes II to himse 7,
the candidate, and his party, to do all
within his power to increase the ma
jority which Ju,lgc Durham received
over Mr.. Bradleyin the drst race they
ran. That majority was over 6Vo,
and if each Of us docs his whole duty
we firmly believe that the figures will
run over ! ,000l Judge Durham has
ably represented us for two terms in
Congress, and is now better fitted than
ever to do good service IN the halls OF
legislation. The district has never
had a Representative who has taken
more pains to serve his constituen $
than Judge Durham. The will of the
people is his guide and, in so far as
he is able, he has carried out that will
ON all measures Of retrenchment, econ
omy, and reform. Let us be up and
doing. so that in November we will be
able to bury the Radical party in the
Eighth District so deep that it will
never struggle again.

THE war in Turkey grows in fury,
Importance, and severity every day.
There seems to be no hope Of its cesn-
ton at an carly day. Seryia stands
out bravely against fearful odds, and
they declare it to be their intention to
suffer determination before they will
consent to be governed by the tyrant
rule Of the Sultan. The great Euro
pean powers have done nothing yet
toward pacilication, although if Rus
STA, England, Austria, and Germany
should lend their aid, an end would be
made of the butcheries at once. A
more cruel and bloody war was never
yaged.

We heard the remark made
the other day that George Il.
Smith alone would contribute
more money to the campaign
fund Of his party in this parish
than every property holder in the
city and parish would contribute
to the campaign fund of the
Democratic Conservative party.
This may be so, as George
makes his money off the people,
and very easily at that. Still, It
is a humiliating recollection that
one carpet>bagger gives more
money to sustain thieying gov
eminent than whole parish and
city fnll Of people are willing to
give to establish an honest one.
If honest men gave more liber>
1 ally, dishonest men would not
have SO much to give. We 'rt'
perfectly satisfied that if The
white people of Louisiana hal
subscribed five per cent. OF their
means any time in thepast eight
years the State governments
would have been in the hands OF
honest men, and millions OF dor
lars saved to the Taxpayers

Homer, La, Oct. 81 learn
by recent interview with a prom
inent Radical from the Mississip-
pi parishes that Louisiana is vir-
tually conceded to the Democra-
cy at the polls, but Hayes is ex-
pected to be elected, and Pack
ard counted in under the color
of law, and sustained. I think
the programme of National in
tervention with our State affairs
is stronger and more determined
than ever. / fear the last and

THE GR1swoLD SCHOOL. Mr..
L. Griswold, so well known
throughout North Louisiana as
an educator of boys, has a most
flourishing school in Fillmore,
Bossier parish. His pupils num-
Der over eighty. His mode of
teaching is as novel as it is ex-
cellent. He calls it the objec-
tive system, by means Of which
instruction is impaired more by
practical demonstration than
from the books, thereby securing
the interest of the pupil without
exhausting him by porting over
his studies. Fillmore is heal
thy and pleasant village, and
rates of board and tuition are
extremely moderate.-[S hreve-
