The insincerity Of the Democratic pretenss
Of reform, urged as roaaou for giving tho
Democrats the control OF the Government, Ia
again illustrated by tho defeat in tho House
Of the proposition to limit tho eligibility to
tho Presidents chair to ono term. Following
the lead Of HonAcz GRsn1Er four years ago,
the Democrats declared that this idea WIS tho
very head and front Of Civil.Servico Reform,
and 1t was tho Democratic party which was to
mako this reform reality. But the Demo-
crata out and tho Democrats In are very differ
ont alfairs. AZ soon as .the Democrats OBJ
tanned possession Of the House they applied
the old doctrine of ITO the yiotors belong
tho spotls," and made clean sweep
Of the old Union soldiers to make
room for tho Confedaratea. And now that
they are satisfied that there Is no movement
in tho country to renominate Gen. GRANT,
who they seem to behave could bo elected
over any Democratic candidate, they do not
propose to shut their own party OF from the
contingent availability Of running Presi~
don't second time. Thia part OF their re-
form programme has gone tho sa,ne way %
tho anti.subsidy sentiment which has prompt
ed tho Democrats to introduce private and
other bills to appropriate SONS 854 ,0oo, ,0oo

the Democratic legislation of the United
States.
There is, however, . second act
in this Mount Pleasant tragedy. Five
colored men have been taken by white
Regulators and hanged at the gate of
their own plantation. The Baton Rouge
Advocate says this was done "by band
of irresponsible persons from over the
Mississippi line
Then this cruel and criminal act had
nothing to do with the punishment by
the 'Union Stop" Society of one of its
own members. It was a separate and
substantive enormity.
It is plain that the political plan of de-
feating the constitutional amendments by
social prescription has passed into a
brotherhood of jawhawkers. They have
raided the negroes, and next burned the
stores of the whites. They know nothing
of politics, but called into exertion and
action by the Democratic White Leaguers,
they have got beyond their control.
They would rather raid and rob one of
''the gentlemen Of Louisiana" if he had
. good house, or full pocketbook, than
Radical or negro who had nothing.
Society in Louisiana must do as the
the whole South elsewhere has Eeen COM
PEELED to do. Discard, denounce and ex-
terminate these jayhawkers, who make the
political dissensions Of the country their
excuse for plundering and numbering the
people.

The outside of the Nstchitoches Vi'sdi-
dictator has been doing something which
does not meet the approval Of the inside.
Our State Democratic exchanges change
hands and opinions SO often that their ex-
ternal and internal conflicts are seldom no.
ticed. A flop in the same number, however,
is . journalistic curiosity. The outside of the
Tindicator indorses Hon. Louis A. Wilt a. Q
candidate for Governor. The editors in.
Eide goes dead against Wiltz, and the Vin-
;licator says inwsrdly: "The present editor
was mot in charge when the outside was
worked OF. In other words, We are not
Wilt man at this time"

THOSE RECORDS.

When man or a party departs from
the truth, and resorts to invention, he or
it is sooner or later caught in a piece of
stupidity. The late outrage in the Fell
cianas has furnished such case. When
the Geographic report came to Chicago
that the colored club had inscribed a
resolution on their records to rise on a
designated day and murder all the whites,
the Democrats calculated "asses" and the
Republicans smiled audibiy. Even the
Chicago Times, partisan as it is, and
ready to catch at almost anything, could
not stand this obvious stupidity, and
gravely remarked that "when men go
into conspiracy of the kind they do not
usually stop to write it down in their
records, and then leave them lying around
loose" As justification for the hanging
of five negro land owners at their own
gates, this humbug report is a decided
failure, so far as the North is concerned.
We have heard of numerous prophesies
of negro risings throughout the South.
For more than fifty years weak or bad
persons have affected to fear that the black
population would rise some night and
demolish the entire white race. These
prophetic charlatans at one time divided
the honors fairly with the second advent
disciples of Miller. But we have never
heard of a ''rising" in the United States,
and never before heard that it was Gus
tomary for those about to commit havoc
to record their determination in minute
book kept for that purpose.

THE WHITE AND THE COLORED KU-KLUX.
The late troubles of Feliciana and

two distinct deeds of violence. The first
was that the colored people had formed
an association which they called 1.-THE
Union Stop" Under this they say that
they volunteer themselves into "a COM

and that ''as the time has come SO that
