1t Ia Of opinion that there are now serious dis
sensions In the Republican party that threaten

The Peoyune in reviewing the letter of Mr..
d. ~ .1... ~
OF the Fifth Avenue Conference to the New
York Tribune, agrees that his arguments why
the Independent voters should support the
Democratic nominees are unanswerable. The
complete prostitution of every Office has SO dis-
gusted the Independents that they cannot. tln-
der any circumstances. support the Republican
party. Tie impracticablity of forming u third
party has, therefore, cast them on the Demo
cratic party as their only salvation. and in the
nomination of Tilden and The st. Louis plat
form, Mr.. Goodwin sees all that the independents
can possibly ask for In refefence to the charges
made against Mr.. Hendricks as a soft money
man Mr.. Godwin sees uo reason to be afraid.
Mr.. Hendricks is the very soul of honor, and
not the man to oppose ths policy of the party
whose nomination he has accepted II next
gets after ''monotonous Morton. who. on
some pretext, got in his old speech about the
South the other day, winding up with the auda-
cious, INSCRIPTIONS aud ridiculous assertion
that all tho Republicans of Louisiana, South
Carolina etc. wanted to roll up Radical ma
iority of 100000 twhewl was peace and fair

South and Southern people. but strange to say.

from Coushatta. The good people Of Louisiana
are pesceable the morals OF the State have inn
proved under his rule, and 1t IN only the bad
example Of the Mississippi. Arkansas and Texas
Democrats and in the border parishes. that any
difficulties take place.
Commenting on telegram to another daily |
paper asserting that the Convention was scan
dalized by the great number Of contesting dele.
cations from the city the Bulletin wants to know
exactly why the country delegates were scandal |
ized-at the contests or at the charges Of fraud.
It recommends that in the primary election for |
delegates to the Parish Convention such results |
bould be prevented. ana that all the citizens |
should vote and see that the primaries are fairly

The Bulletin wants the United States to go 10 |
work and utterly destroy the Indians now. have
a sufficient force" "a chief OF exceptional |
ability. and then finish up the Indian war in |
one sharp and sudden blow.
The bulletin is so pleased with the increase in |
The Congressional appropriation for the inn
Of the mouth of the Msaissppi that |
It even compliments the present Congress-

The humorous editorials OF the Bulletin dis
,uss the patriot of to-day which It copceives to
