Louisiana Securities.

Speaking of the new Louisiana State
bonds, the New York Commercial Adrer-
tiser of June q says:
As heretofore noticed, the July coupon on
the consolidated State bonds Of Louisiana
will be paid by Messrs. Winslow, Lanier &
Co.
There is some disposition shown in the
last few days to buy these bonds at sixty
nine and half to seventy per cent as fair
speculation. The consolidated debt is in
shape in respect to the amended constitu-
ton and recent laws of Louisiana, un-
der Republican rule, but it is proper to
throw out word of caution as to
what may occur at the next November
election. Should the Democracy of the
State, which is of the most virulent Con-
federate type, succeed to the administration
of Governor Kellogg, there can be no as.
surance that either the constitutional provi-
sion or the laws passed in pursuance thereof
for the integrity of the State debt will be
adhered to.

Texas and New Orleans Railway.

1t will sfford qualification to every friend
of the prosperity Of this city to be informed
that the rapid construction of the Texas
and New Orleans railway is indeed "NO-
joare."
From Beaumont coming this way the rails
have been laid to within twelve miles of
Trinity, and the construction train now runs
between that point and the Sabine.
The draw over Trinity river has been put
up, and arrangements have been made for
the positive commencement Of track laying
on this end of the line on or before July 5.
The new bridge to replace the one blown
down at San Jacinto is en- route, and. it is
expected, will be up by the middle of
August. Altogether it may be set down as
tolerably certain that regular trains will
commence running from Houston to the
Sabine simultaneously with those from here
to the Brazos, over the line of the Texas
Western narrC W gauge railway.
Messrs. Hyatt & Stuart. contractors, will,
it is asserted, rush the building of that por
ton of the line between Houston and San

Republican Voters at the South.

Will the Republican voters of the South
cast their ballots in the coming contest!
This is q question of grave Importance to
the Republican party, and subject of
serious consideration for those Of our
statesmen who desire to see the elective
franchise exercised in all its proper free
dom. In Pennsylvania citizen is pro-
tected in the full manipulation of his
franchise privilege, but in Mississippi he
is illegally and uDjustly circumecribet The
question is, ''shall this difference exist in the
two localities during the impending strug-
gle9 Shall our black citizens be allowed to
vote unmolested, or are they to be intimi-
dated and shot down in the attempt" 1t
is pretty generally asserted by loyal
men of the North and West that the
colored Republicans of the South shall
vote as they please and must not be
disturbed. Ii the South desires peace she
must accord to all her citizens the rights
which accrue to them from certain articles
of the constitution. She must do this.
Twenty-nine millions of loyal men and
women demand that during the coming
contest the Southern voter, be he white or
black. shall be protected in the lawful ex
ercise of the franchise privilege; shall be
protected by peaceable means, if possible;
if not, then by the majesty of force as e1-
ercised through the indignation of those
who gave them the rights of citizenship

The Worst Man.
An editorial in the Chicago Times, Of June
%, concludes as follows:

An editorial in the Chicago Times, OF June
%, concludes as follows:
There is no Disgusting the fact, which be.
comes more prominent and significant every
day, that no other person who has been
named IN connection with the st. Louis
nomination is so unpopular in Ohio and In
diana as Tilden. He is cordially hated by
the Democrats of those States, who will not
only use every effort to defeat his nomina-
ton, but seek to revenge themselves upon
him by damaging support or by open op
position in case he is nominated; and the
same is true of q considerable portion of
the Pennsylvania Democracy. He can not
carry one of these States, and, unless the
Tammany opposition is an unmitigated
sham and fraud, it is hardly possible for
him to carry New York. If he is nominated
his defeat is about as certain as any event
in the future, and absolutely certain in
case the greenbackers carry into execution
their threat of putting third ticket in the
field. That they will do this is by no means
improbable, since, although it would result
in the overwhelming defeat of the Demo
cratic party, they would very generally pre-
fer defeat to success if success means Til
den and hard money.

The "Blue Blood, Fiction.

Blue blood is after all, good deal OF 1t,
fiction. The Pail Mall Gazette says:
At the present time there is not in the
peerage q lineal male descendant OF enc of
the many earls and barons created by the
Conqueror or his immediate successors, the
Norman kings of England. There is no
male descendant of single baron who was
at Runrymede, either for or against King
J ohm, nor of any peer who was at Aginoourt
with Henry ", and only one Wrottesley
who can claim male descent from founder
knight Of the Garter, the Wrottesleys hav.
ing reached the peerage within the last
forty years. Under their existing creations
the dukedoms of Norfolk and Somerset
only are older than the reign of Charles H.;
the marc uisates of Winchester and Worces-
ter only are older than the reign OF George
Ill, and only eleven earldoms, six merged
in superior titles, are older than the reign
of james l., the five others being Shrews-
bury, Derby, Huntington. Pembroke and
Devon. At the death OF Queen Elizabeth
the peers of England numbered about
sixty, aud forty of the then existing peer
ages are now extinct.
