Or zat Law and Louis Quatorze found 1t no
easy matter In the old days to get emigrants for
Louisiana. IL was an Eldorado no doubt but
then the French had heard that 1t produced
larger crops of Indians than indigo. and that
the settlers were much moro likely to fall vic
Tins to bulldoozing redskins than raise cotton.
Some emgrants were banished. and some were
carried over forcibly, and some were swindled
over: but still there was plentiful lack OF men.
Under these circumstances Law bought up n
lot Of cheap Germans and sent them over. but
he forgot to give them sufficient food, most of
them starved to death on the German coast.
But the grand buh OF the day was made by
Louis himself. The Adams of the colony cried
aloud for Ewes. As 1t was very difficult matter
to get nice. decent girls to go over. the King re-
solved to clean out his prisons and give wives
and mothers to the oolonists at the same time.
Several shiploads of women from the prisons of
La Salpetriere Les Madeonnettes and others.
were sent over Still the colony languished
there we're women. but no children. stranger
could walk up and down and around New Or
leans without hearing a baby cry or seeing q
child making mud pies. The streets were
gloomy. quiet and sad.
What is the meaning Of this ?" asked Louis
why are there not more children? have sent
over men and women; what more is required !?
Why amt there more children? They can't get
along. Louisiana will not be permanent with
out them"
An official inquiry into the matter displayed
the fact that the women sent over were most of
them beyond the grand cimacteric and ranged
from fifty up. This made no difference to the
colonsts; they were only too willing to take
wives. and eighty years proved no objection to
Them but still there was little show of large
families with these wives The want of children
was thus explained, and the next ship load was
more promising in age and looks. The danger
that had threatened the destruction and depopu-
lation of Louisiana was averted. and infantie
music cheered our dreary streets.

The Republican yesterday morning
says the Democrats object to Packard
because he will enforce the law. F"
The Republicans have way Of their
own to enforce laws, by getting all
around them and using them for party
purposes, IL Is not astonishing that the
people should be afraid Of having them
handled by such men. Such n law, for
example, ~ that creating the Returning
Board is one of those which Mr.. Packard
would like TO enforce, and to the en-
forcement of which the people object.

The New Orleans Democrat. (New Orleans, La.) 1875-1876, 1876-07-09

The true philosophical division Of
parties IL upon fundamental principles,
or upon questions Of governmental
policy. Upon all such questions there
will always be differences OF opinion,
and men whose minds think, to a GER
tain extent, alike. whether thcy be good
or bad men, will gather together into
one party or the other. When par.
ties are thus organized 1t be-
comes the province and highest
duty of tho good mon In each
TO control and direct the policy of each.
But when well meaning men attempt
to break up party lines formed on given
principles, simply because they find bad
men associated with them. and to or
ganize new parties upon mere issues OF
personal virtue, they create political
chaos, and the well organized and wiser
opposition has. what in common par
lance Ia called walk over. gobbles up
tho Offices. controls the State, and has
things pretty much TO suit itself.
We are not prepared to say that after
the present campaign there will not be
Il new organization Of parties; but we do
say that any effort TO disturb the pres
ent lines and to create a party simply Of
virtue, will only serve to divide, dis
tract and weaken the Dem ocraoy, and
leave the State to the absolute control
OF the Radicals. whose higher wisdom
will give force and power to their vicious
principles and theories.

Our neighbor, the Bulletin. In It's edi-
torial yesterday. headed Future Party
Lines" we think, Is unphilosophical
and impracticable. We understand our
friend to deprecate the division Of par
ties upon the race issue. Such a divi-
sion we concede to be unfortunate. and
the Democratic party has for years en-
deavored to prevent IL; yet a higher
power than the Democracy seems to
have controlled the matter. and there
has certainly been a strong
tendency in the nature of things
TO the formation of such party
lines. in all countries and times,
where different races, nearly equal in
numbers, have lived under the same gov
eminent. We call to the attention of
the Bulletin the fierce race conflicts
which desolated England In its earlier
history, and which continued until the
Britons. the Saxons and the Danes be-
came amalgamated into one race. Ii
is, wo may also remark, noticeable
fact, that, in every community there Is
a strong disposition among the citizens
of each nationality to combine and act
together These are facts which
we cannot ignore in discussing
politics In State, the population Of
which is divided between two races
so antagonistic that they cannot, like
the races which fought over England
amalgamate., 1t behooves us, there
fore, to be cautious in fixing the respon-
sibility for the tendency toward race
divisions.
We deprecate the race issue, and we
believe that, il the whites and blacks Of
the South were left to themselves, it
might be avoided. The negroes free from
the influences OF carpet-baggers and
other corrupt demagogues whose in
terest it is to aggregate them in a
party under their control, would, in their
nature, confide in their white employers,
and the race conflict, settled in other
countries between the white races by
amalgamation, and between the white
and black and Indian races by the ex-
termination Of the one or the other,
would here be peacefully settled by the
stronger race becoming the protector,
friend and patron of the weaker.
While we depricate the race issue,
therefore, we nevertheless hold that
there is, in the nature of things. a ten
dency to it.
Our neighbor, like ourselves, depre-
Gates the division Of parties into white
and black, but proposes division which
we regard as unphilosophical and inn
practicable, and which, If practicable,
would be more detrimental to the peace |
and advancement of society than the
race issue. The Bulletin proposes a !
reorganization Of parties in which the |
good elements in both shall combine |
against the bad elements in both. There
is no record in political history
OF any such division Of parties.
Were it attempted. the members Of
the good party, the moment the bad
party carried an election, would flock
over to the winning side in such multi
tudes that the good party would be left
forever in q helpless minority. and the
country subjected for all time to the
nercy Of the bad men. !

letter addressed 10 me by the Governor:
STATE OF LOUISIANA,
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT
New Orleans. July 8, 1876. J
Hon. GEORGE b. JOHNSON. Auditor of Public
Accounts:
SIR
Whereas. a bill remtting penalties on delin-
quent taxes, provided such taxes were paid at a
specified time. together with all current taxes
and licenses, was passed through both Houses
ofthe General Assembly at its last session. and
failed to become law only because of an unim-
portant amendment made in one house during
the last hours of the session. and not concurred
in by the other house for want Of time: and
Whereas. the exaction Of such penalties at this
time appears to be so onerous as to actually re-
tard the collection of the revenue you are there
fore authorized to issue instructions to the
several tax collectors throughout the State,
directing them to receive all back taxes without
penalties for period of ninety days. Provided,
that payment is simultaneously made for all
current taxes and licenses. All tax collectors
throughout the State should be directed to re-
ceive such back taxes and licenses without
penalties, subject to the approval Of the General
Assembly at its next session.
WILLIAM P. KELLOGG, Governor
l advise and concur in the above Executive
order A. p, FIELD,
Attorney General
In conformity to the suggestions contained
therein you are hereby authorized and directed
to receive all back taxes, without penalties,
for ninety days from date hereof, after which
date you will require the payment of the penal
ties exacted by law. if this letter of instruc-
lions had not been issued. 1t is to be understood
that this order is not TO be construed as grant
ing any extension of time.
In connection herewith repeat my previous
Injunction relative to the efficient and prompt
collection OF the revenue. This office will insist
upon and expect your best efforts in this direc-
ton. and regard inefficiency as proper cause
for recommendation to the Governor for re-
moval.
You will make a special report of all back
taxes received. without penalties. to the end
that the matter may be submitted to the General
for approval.
Respectfully. GEORGE B. JOHNSON.
