While we were strolling through the
grounds. the Governor pointed out the
beauties and advantages OF the place
with q zest that discovered how he en-
loved them. He fondled his two favor

house. which hid over thousand burst
ing buds only few days ago, and which
were the first objects OF his attention
on his return from New York, last Tues
day. After passing through the garden,
the Governor visited his favorire saddle
horse, Topic. This handsome and dociie

and came for the customary lump OF
sugar, weakness Of his the Governor

The thirteen reconstructed States cast
ninety. five electoral votes, or more than
ono. fourth OF the whole number. All
these States voted for Grant in 1868, OK
cent Georgia and Louisiana, which voted
ior Seymour, and Mississippi. Virginia
and Texas, which, not being then fully
restored to the Union, did not vote NJ
all For several years nine OF these
States were strongholds or the Repuhli-
Fan party. Latterly they have gradu-
ally become Democratic until at the
present time the Republicans have y
rather feeble hold upon only South Caro-
lima, Florida and Louisiana.
II the pending Presidential campaign
the reconstructed States are the key OF
the position and unless the Republi-
cans can defeat the Democrats in three
or four OF tho States now held by the
latter, they have no hope OF escape.
Hence, they look upon Mississippi, Ar
kansas. Louisiana and Alabama with a
covetols eye: and II violent .counsels
expedent OF the bayonet for recovering
their lost ground In the South.
Well, let them try IL. Then, when 1t
Is too late to profit by the fact, they
may learn that an influential body OF
Republicans In the North will not
tolerate further attempts to carry elec-
tions In tho South by stuffing ballot
boxes according to martial law, nor look
quietly on while peaceable citizens are
denounced a. banditti because they pro-
test against suoh outrages. Nevertheless,
II becomes more and more apparent that
the Republicans. hard pressed by the
emergency, contemplate q raid OF
violence In the coming canvass in four
or five OF the reconstructed States.
The Democrats need not be alarmed
at this Intervention by the sword. For
every electoral vote thus wrenched from
them by terror and coercion. they may
gain two Ia the doubtful States OF the
North and West.

Tilden VS.. Hendricks, or AntagOnism vs..
Afinity.
Herald and Gazette.l

AWufty.
Herald and Gazette
Since the nomination Of Samuel j.
Tilden on Wednesday last, the air is
lighter, the land seems wholesomer, and
men draw freer breath, and the people
await with hopeful emotions an era Of
peace, prosperity and stability in every
pursuit OF life. They anxiously look
forward to the day when the thieves
and public plunderers shall be removed
from office. No better selection could
have been made for the second place on
the ticket than the name of Governor
Thomas A. Hendricks, OF Indiana. 1t is
a name above cavil or reproach. Mr..
Hendricks is one of the ablest and
purest statesmen in the United States.
It remains for the people to say whether
two such pure and distinguished states
men as Tllden and Hendricks shall or
shall not be defeated by two second
class country politicians, Hayes and
Wheeler, who would represent, as the
head Of their party, profiigacy, corrup-
ton and plunder. We have faith in the
moral sentiment of the people. There
is not the shadow of doubt in our mind
but that Tilden and Hendricks will be
elected next November; for the people
know right we'll that the election of
Hayes and Wheeler would be nothing
more nor less than a continuation, II
not perpetration, of Grantism.

The performance Of GA New Way to
Pay Old Debts" by the Shakespeare
Club, last night, at the Varieties Thea
ire, attracted, as usual, a large audi
ence, and, owing to the refreshing rains
which had poured down in the after
noon, the pleasure was enhanced by
comparatively cool atmosphere, which
otherwise might have been intolerable.
We are not partial to the play, which
owes its popularity to the leading char
acter, Sir Giles Ouerveach, made
great by some Of our most eminent
actors in the past, and upon which
the entire burden rests. Doubtless
Mr.. O'Neile, whose qualities as an
amateur justified the attempt, was de-
sirous to undertake it; but, as was evil
dent last night, the distance between
good intentions-however we'll based on
ability-and actual performance is great.
Mr.. O'Neale's Sir Giles was tame
throughout, although correct, and was
apparently sustained with much effort.
Certainly, nevertheless, In the fifth act
the acting of Mr.. O'Neale was very
effective. We thought he was not In as
good voice as usual, which may account
for many delinquencies in his reading.
The play was smoothly rendered, the
amateurs being all well up in their
parts, and the scene between Au1orM
| 1Mr. T. C. McCandlish) and Lazy .Au-
uorth Miss Glassford) In the fourth act,
together with the closing dialogue OF
| the same act, was excellent. Although
Miss Glassford had to contend with an
| insignificant part, this charming actress
made much OF it.
Mr.. Davidson's Marrau was decidedly
the most perfect impersonation OF the
plav. This difficult part was we'll un-
derstood by the accomplished amateur,
who not for single moment permitted
himself to be extrayagant.

THE STAFF CONVENTION.
Election Of Delegates In the Parish Of
Orleans.

Considerable inquiry is already being
made concerning the time which the
Parish Convention will fix for the elec-
tion Of delegates to the State Convention
to be held in Baton Rouge, on the oath
inst. Although the date has not been
definitely fixed, 1t is generally under
stood that Friday, July 81, will be the
day. This will give ample time to
the delegates elected to reach Baton
Rouge, and in contested cases, il any
there be, sufficient time also to prepare
their cases.

ready prepared. The bottom of the
shaft is in deoomposed granite, scanned
