Such arc the headings in the Nash
Vile American Of the 9Th instant, and
they comprehend AS much, in " nut
shell, as anything we could write io'
the Home journal. We only want to
say that we are no. disappointed III
this return Of the Louisiana Board,
composed as it is Of four men, two OF
whom arc ignorant negroes and two
are rascally Radicals. But the qucs-
ton still remains Will the Democrats
OF the North submit to this Infamous
tran sactiOn-this throwing cut OF 49,
600 Democratic votes in order to carry
Louisiana for Hayes by about 4 200
majority? Verify Christ has been
cruciiicd afrcsh if this infamy should
be allowed to pass, Surely GoycrnoI
Hayes is too much Of n gentleman to
accept an Office obtained by fraud
when he knows that n majority OF
more than u quarter o! = million Of
the popular vote is against him. But,
as we have before said in the Home
journal, we expect trouble. Ulysses
s. Grant and his hcnchncn vii! see
this broad country a desolated country
if thereby they can retain the power
they have 20 shamclully abused. We
in the South are quiet and helpless, but
our faith is il the valor and goodwill
of the Democrats Of the North. Surely
they will not allow Tildcn to he dc
.eated by the rascali'y Of Southern
Returning Boards and the admission
Of Colarado as a State by mere procia-
nation OF L. s. Grant, who wants to
nsurp power for four years more, and

quote:

made President by these lswless men

expect from his administration? Ask
History who it WAS that owned and

Hayes becomes President by such
methods, be must be the slave of the
conspirators who made him, and VINO
can unmake him by a simple exposure
Of the fraud by which 1t was done.
This would be replacing Grantism by
something incidentally worse; itwoull
be casting cut one devil to make room
for a legion. But does Grant intend

The Leca! Sentiment.

As calculated to have an effect il
the right direction, a brief editorial IL
the New York Evening Post, to which
prominence is given, is worth mention
ing. Under the head of The ReaI
Sentiment of the Nation" the editor o,
the Post (strongly Republican, speaks
as follows:
of Mr.. Tilden has a majority of the
Electoral votes, the whole Nation will
acquiesce in his success. But if, hay
ing really such a majority, the attempt
is made to count him out, the Nation
will not acquiesre. The better class
of the Republicans themselves will be
among the first to protest against the
wrong. We say this because we De
