close political and professional connec
ton with Tammany, he did about tht
frauds of the Democratic Tweed and
Connolly ring. Mr.. Tilden is, we be-
lieve. descendant of the Plymouth
Rock Puritans. He is held ur
| to the world as far whittier than snow
Yet the political detectives are after him,
and they find him rather an ina-puritan,
rather Pharisee, somewhat Of sepul'
chre, alabaster without, but little smoky
within. Now they hold him up in New
York as having sworn his income at a few
tn ousand dollars, while his fees from
Credit Mobilier and other exploded frauds
for which he was of counsel or trustee,
were, in the same year, nearly three times
in one single fee as much as he deposed
his whole income to be.
We have heard of indomitable Demo.
Gratis in New Orleans who have paid as
SCISSORS to write down their stocks or
houses at great deal less than their mar
ketable value. These were obscure men,
for whose dishonesty the Democratic
party could not be held responsible. But
Mr.. Tilden claims precedence of all linen
because of his peculiar purity. He is a
Puritan of the Puritans, assumed to be
every way worthy of the immortal faith
ers who came ashore at Plymouth. The
reputation of Mr.. Tilden should then be
branded at least XXX. To have made a
fortune out of the war; to have
preserved his neutrality throughout the
war; to have ruined many people and
stained the national name, seem curious
corollaries from the extraordinary virtues
assumed for Mr.. Tilden. 1t moreover
seems that this life of selfshness and of
cunning has been varied by no act of per-
sonal or Of public devotion; no school or
college founded, as by the ignorant Daniel
Drew or the uneducated Vanderbilt; no
act of signal craftsmanship, as in the his
tory of Seward or Webster; no work of
literature or of science; no symptom of
even those foibles of humanity which,
while they may not meet the approval of
the severer code Of propriety, yet find
indulgence in the inner consciousness of
pathetic nature. What can be found in
nature so cold, so cautious, so selfish, to
excite the enthusiasm of the American
people? The biography and epitaph Of
Mr.. Tilden may be written in these few
and comprehensive words: "He was dis
tinguished as attorney in the Credit Mo-
bilier swindle, by which he was enriched.
He was attorney for the Democracy in
their great action for the recovery of the
Federal government, for which he was to
receive the great contingent fee Of the
Presidency. In this last case his clients
were non-suited. He died political in
solvent and professional failure"

NOT AFRAID TO SIGN HIS NAME.

At last We have one report of an out
rage in this State to which the sender is
not afraid to append his name.
We receive letters every day from one
parish or another containing important
information, all of which contain the in
variable request: Don't use my name,
as, if it were known l wrote this, l should
be killed" But these cases are always
outrages to Republicans and colored peo-
pie. 1t is not safe to tell the truth about
them, and the narrator does it at his risk.
MIR. McCranie, of Monroe, it appears, en-
joys the largest liberty, such as every man
in the State is entitled to, but sometimes
fails to realize. He has just flushed and
made public a tremendous sensation, to
which he fearlessly appends his name,
knowing that there is not a man, woman
or child in the whole Republican
party so base as to attack him for
telling the truth, or what he may be
persuaded to believe is such. It is true
there is not much in NcCranies story.
There has been hubbub or scare in Qua.
chita parish, arising out of a dispute at
political meeting between white Demo-
crat and colored Republican. Subse-
quently two houses in the country were
attacked after fashion, that is, shots
were fired at them by some parties un-
known. The usual consequences fol-
lowed. The white men took to the sad
dle' armed, and the negroes took to the
swamps' There is this exception, how
ever The oft-repeated refrain of the re-
ports OF NEGRO riots" land nineteen col.
ored men were badly wounded is omitted.
FOR this amelioration we owe thanks to
the 1orbearance Of the people of Ouachita
or good luck, we are not sure which. Bnt
however the excitement began, or how il
may end, we are glad to say the reporter
was not afraid, and had no reason to he
afraid to sign his name to his dispatches

wicked. They are going to have one now

the imports Of merchandise amounted
