THE boarding houses in this neighborhood,
for week past, have been filling up so rap
idly that some of them are now full to over
flowing. This fact makes busy time for
our merchants, fills our side walks with live

times all around

THAT agricultural fair that we ought to
have this fall we fear is really non est. And
what a pity, especially in view of the fact
that all are beginning to feel nationally in
regard to fairs, and that we would in all like
lihood have something beside horse race,
side shows of ''snake tamers," hideous mon,
strosities and gin mills under cover of la,
ger beer booths, to amuse and instruct tho
thousands who would come together. It Is
not too late even now to get up fair, but tc
make it successful we should go to work with
out delay and get out handbills, prepare pre-
MUM lists to be honestly carried out, anC
otherwise start the bail in motion.

resented by the White League orators.
His exodus from community from which
he had been almost driven by obloquy is
to be regretted. That a scholar and man
of fortune, as alleged, should have been
driven from State by social and political
intolerance, would BE-, in our estimation,
a great loss to the State. It is, however,
notorious that a party feeling exists among
us which expels and repels Republican
immigrants.
That Mr.. Durell has an example in thus
retiring will be found in the fact that one
of the most eminent editors and proprie-
tors of the Times itself is understood to
have taken his ample fortune and schol-
arly requirements to the Nutmeg State,
where, we may presume, he luxuriates in
splendid villa. With the popularity
which has always followed the gallant
Confederates who conduct the Times, the
absenteeism in the last case is less par
donable than in the first. A man who
can not live in peace and respect on &C.
count of his political opinions may be
pardoned the weakness Of withdrawal,
but one who, with the accumulated evil
dences of social approval, leaves popu-
lation ''under the heel Of the oppressor'
and betakes himself to the peaceful vii
lagos of the nutmeg corner, should write
a pamphlet to justify the abandonment.

DEMOCRATIC LOG-ROLLIEE:

We showed, some days since, that sena-
tor salisbury had taken his stand upon the
old Democratic doctrine that the Federal
government could not invade a State with
road or canal. The SHOWS Of age have
not with Mr.. Salisbury, as with Mr.
William Allen, obscured the ancient
pathway OF principle. The Democrat
files an extract from Western CORE
spondent to show the very proper criticism
made by Senator Edmunds On the scheme
by which Democratic House bill appro-
priated five or six millions Of dollars for
one or two hundred distant objects Of
public expenditure, has been found by
an impartial, just, liberal, economical
Senate committee on investigation, that
many OF these objects Of expenditure are
not, under the circumstances, justified
by the public emergency.
We pass the obvious hypocrisy Of the
Democracy in denouncing the extrava-
gance Of the war and its consequences
at the same time that they report bill
giving bonus for the Improvement Of
local ways, many of which fall within
the districts of Southern Democratic
members. We confne ourselves to the
radical difference OF doctrine between the
Democracy and the Wing or Republican
creed. Mr.. Edmunds says:
We have no constitutional right 10 appro-
PIRATE for any State. We have, if we have
any right Al all, the constitutional right
only to improve the navigable waters of
great public natural highways of the Union
IN o. der to regulate and assist Commerce
among the several States.
In this we may discern the difference
between the national and State rights
school. There is difference scarcely
worth discussing between the doctrine Of
the Senators from Delaware and YER
mont They unite in opposition to this
House bill with sectional cooperation.
They are found opposed to the Demo

RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WAR.

In one thing Mr.. Ti!den is in perfect
accord with his Southern supporters.
Neither approves the expenditures Of the
war; Counselor Tilden by no means OBJ
jects to the kicks and contempt in case
of assault and battery, but he can't stand
the bill for torn clothes of the combat.
The attack upon the depreciation Of
public currency is an attack upon the
war. Mr.. Salisbury, Democrat, lately
held the government responsible for fit
teen years Of misrule. Mr.. Tilden ar
raigns it for eleven years of extravaganza
Is there man who fought for the preser-
walton of the Union who begrudges its cost?
What caused that cost? The formidable
nature of Confederate resistance. Does
not Mr.. Tilden know that the rate of
discount on Federal currency went up or
down with every defeat or delay Of the
Union arms? The very Democratic con-
vention which proclaimed the war a
failure may have cost the nation millions
in depreciation of credit and prolonga-
ton Of the war Perhaps if Governor
Tilden himself should be held respon-
sible for his quota of that cost it would
absorb every dollar which he may have
made by speculation upon the fuctua-
tons of the national existence. But why
does he attempt to expel the Republican
party for the national debt and deprecia-
ton of the national currency? Will he
deny that the debt is consequence of
the war? Does he not know that without
the final success of the Union cause the
Federal debt would have been little bet
ter than the Confederate debt is now?
These facts are obvious and notorious.
Yet the financial legislation of the Repub-
lican party has been such that it pre-
served the national credit during the war
and has been slowly bringing it up from
the lowest point of discredit to within
twelve or fourteen points of par. This
achievement is the result of military
success which Mr.. Tilden and his Demo-

THE WORLDS INDUSTRIES,

Weof Louisiana frequently complain of
he troublous times on which we have
fallen, and Of the hindrances to prosperity
by which we are surrounded. If, how
ever, we carry our thoughts beyond what
is merely local and incidental in our stu
alton, the fact that we are not much
worse off than other people will force it.
self on our considerate attention. Our
wanderers 60 away; but they return
almost invariably with the report that
they find no place possessed of greater
advantages than Louisiana, and espe-
cially, no place which seems to them so
much like home. Nor is this report based
merely on individual conclusions. 1t is
sustained by the local, industrial and
commercial statistics of almost every por-
ton Of our widely extended country, as
well as those of the great world without.
The times are everywhere out Of joint,

cratic friends discouraged by pronounc-
ing the war "a failure"
The proposal to summon a courtmartlal
of Confederate Brigadiers, Of whom Mr.
Tilden shall be judge advocate, to try the
Republican government for having spent
too much money in preserving the Union,
will be curious consequence OF patriotic
devotion to the Union. The immense ma
tional debt was enhanced by the deprecla-
ton of the currency in which it was chiefly
contracted. It will be difficult to induce
public men in future to take the RESPONSE
bility of executing the laws against expe-
rienced resistance. They may save what
Kossuth first called ''the life OF the ma
tion," but may expect that those VINO re-
sisted the drafts and discredited the treas
ury of the nation will be held to account
and will be expelled from the national
trusts for having preserved the national
existence.
We will 90 further, and say that there
is not one abuse charged by Governor
Tilden against the Republican party IN
the last eleven years which is not the
direct and inevitable result of the war.
There are violent acute diseases that
threaten life, which, subdued are fol-
LEVIED by other infrmities called by the
physicians sequelp. These last are OBJ
stinate and sometimes dangerous conse-
quences of the first 1nalady. War has its
sequele. They are debt, depreciation,
extravaganza, dereliction of official ser
vices. If the financial and official history
of the Confederate government had been
preserved it would show the same con-
sequences of civil war. This has been
rendered probable by its records and by
the reports of the Confederate historians.
But is there no credit side to this ac-
count? Does Mr.. Tilden give no thanks
to President Lincoln, to Secretary Chase,
to the military committees of the Senate
and House? None. He holds the Re
publican party to the pound OF flesh.
The talent has been put to USE" He
has not received "mine own, with usury.
Hence his impeachment of Republican
economy
