And now we have the reason. We
lave the authority of some newspapers
for it, that Grant is disclarging Jewell,
Dyer, Yaryan, and the rest of them be-
cause they are his personal enemies.
His whole administration and his vast
power is now used to punish those who
are supposed to be personally unfriend-
]y. 1t is wholly \ personal matter be-
tween Grant and lis subQctlinates.
Certainly that's the way it is. And so
his contests with General Lee were on
personal grounds. He had some per-
sonol feeling against Jeff. Davis and the
rest Of them, and SO lie used the armies
Of the U. S. to avenge lis personal
grievances, and vent his personal spite.
It is always so with great people like
Grant. They have a personal spite at
everybody and everything, and they
bang round the world ul'setting thrones
and getting into difficulty, all to crafty
personal feeling.

THE EMPEROR OF BRAZIL.

We think the resolution discussed in
the House Wednesday, to invite the
Emperor Of Brazil, during his soiourn
in the United States, to visit louisa Ia,
should be adopted. Dom Pedro is a
prince OF enlarged views, who has done
a great deal to advance the. civilization
of his Empire and develop its commerce.
The kingly qualities of the illustrious
guest Of the Union, therefore, and the
commercial Importance to our city and
State Of having the cordial friendship OF
the government Of a country with
such vast commercial interests, which
may be made largely tributary to New
Orleans, render the proposed invi
tation at once mark of proper respect
to the Brazilian potentate, and meas
ure Of great commercial importance.
With the deepening of the mouth Of
the Mississippi, New Orleans will ne.
cessarily, from its geographical rela
tions, become the chief entire port Of
our Brazilian importations, land the ship
ping point Of our exports to that EN-
pire. We consequently need and de-
sire the friendship and good will O
Dom Pedro, and we think the invi
tation should be extended. Doubt
less the commercial organizations o.
the city would contribute largely t.
any means found necessary to give the
Emperor proper reception, should
be accept our proffered Inequalities

vet fail to preserve order and enforce
the law. Referring to acts OF unneces-
sarv violence in East Baton Rouge, re-
sulting from the inefiiciency OF the OIL
Gals. the AduOcdte OF the 18th says:
The officers Of the law have made nc.
effort whatever to protect the people oi
this parish, and, therefore. IN the az
sence OF the protection OF the strong
arm OF law it is the duty OF all g0od
citizens to adopt some measures that
These acts we learn are perpetrated by
irresponsible persons, reckless persons
who have taken advantage OF the de-
moralized condition Of things, 'natu-
raj result Of the worthless character OF
the Kellogg usurping Office holders
here. and are riding rough .shod over
everybody who dare place themselves
in their pathway. But we are pleased
to say that the disturbers are very rev
in number and will be easily checked in
their mad career by the people OF THIS
parish, without the aid OF outside assls'
lance.
The responsibility for all the trou-
bles which have occurred in this
State, is chargeable directly to the
character OF our government, composed,
as it is, OF those who have used their
ill-got power to rob and harrass the
people, instead OF using 1t to protect
the public interests and administer
Justice. Indeed, we do not hesitate to
say that what OF order, peace and
law prevails in the State, Is due to
the conservative and forbearing char
acter OF the better class OF this com.
munity. The law and the officers OF
the law are the vilest OF frauds.

NOTICE TO ALL CONCERNED.

We have reason to know, indeed are
on the track of such u conspiracy and
expect fully to develop it, that num-
Der OF persons in this city, acting siEgly
or in combination, have been and still
are engaged in an effort to injure the
DEMOCRAT by endeavoring to obstruct
and even to suppress its circulation in
various ways. We were surprised thatour
gallant and generous contemporaries
OF the Press exhibited such apparent
hostility to the DEMOCRAT as to have
refused us the customary Geographic
news for our readers, as is transmitted
by the Associated Press. They COM
PEELED us by their illiberal proceedings
in the matter to employ other news
agencies. Since then we have been
made to feel that the DEMOCRAT was an
enemy invading territory where 1t had
no manner Of right to go. The
truth is, the DEMOCRAT has rather
caused rafting Of dry bones among
our confreres here. The Radical paper,
and some Of the protesting conserva-
tive ones, have shaken hands cordially
in a common crusade against our sue
cess, and with the most earnest prophe-
cies OF our speedy demise. At any rate,
while withholding all charges at this
time regarding any one, 1t Is proper TO
state, that it is known to us that words
have been spoken, and acts haze been
done, designed to hinder and to injure
this journal, aud that it is our intention
to follow up the clue in our possession
with the most unrelenting determine
ton to ascertain the guilty parties, and
to obtain every personal and legal rem
edy in our power.
In the meantime, we warn our friends
of the facts, and our foes to take notice OF
what we have here stated. Our friends
know us too we'll to suppose that we
intend to submit to such petty tyranny
as any surreptitious and illegal attempt
to deny us free speech and free thought,
or that we shall no. waste our best
efforts in tracking up and exposing those
| who have been and are hostile to us in
a cowardly and treacherous manner.
| They will discover that the DEMOCRAT is
not easily to be victimized. We ask for
and intend to have fair play, and have
resolved that the Democratic and Con-
| servative people of Louisiana shall have
u paper in this city, of which they have
given us strong evidence they thor.
oughly approve. The DEMOCRAT is now
preparing to issue an evening edition,
and a superior weekly, principally for
country circulation.

THE GREEN RESOLUTION.

On resolution from the Radical side
of the Senate few days ago, a commit
tee was appointed to look over the
records of the Secretary OF State, and
ascertain how many Of the family OF
Senator Allen Green held public offices
In Lincoln parish. Yesterday the COM
mittee reported that only one OF the
family, G. J. Green, held office at pres
ent in that parish, and that he is the
only one of the family who has been
in office since the 25th day Of last
April. The resolution Of inquiry was
designed by his former political
allies to get the Lincoln Senator down,
as an act of vengeance for his having
acted with the Democrats and Conserva-
tives IN electing a United States Senator
and it was expected the inquiry would
show that very large number Of the
Green family were provided with fat
offices. The movers, however, were dis
appointed. 1t was when Mr.. Green was
an unwashed Radical that his numerous
relatives We're officeholders. Now that
he has seen the error of his way, and
modified his Radicalism very considera-
bly,, he has but one son provided for,
and that is as reasonable as could be ex-
pected

German and Italian Governments meet
great difficulties in acquiring control of
the railroads. Accordingly, Prince Bis
marck will limit his efforts to purchas-
ing the Prussian lines, and will defer, il
he does not abandon, the arduous task
of acquiring and managing the vast rail
road system of the empire. In Italy
the railroads are represented by Baron

THE APPORTIONMENT QUESTION.

The apportionment bill, until finally
disposed of, stands as an insurmount-
able obstacle to the legislation so much
needed by the suffering interests OF the
State. Joint caucus committees have
been appointed by both the Democrats
and Republicans to devise satisfactory
apportionment bill, and 1t Is to be hoped
that, through the moderation OF these
committees, the desired result will be
obtained. With the House in the hands
of the Democrats and Conservatives, the
Radical Senators must comprehend that
a partisan bill cannot be passed, and
that as there is firm conviction
throughout the State that the State
census Is q rank fraud, IL they insist
upon it as basis Of apportionment, the
people will hold them and their party
responsible for the prolongation OF the
evils which burden our trade, property,
and industries generally.
Considering the extremely doubtful
character of the whole census, and the
absolute certainty Of it's incorrectness in
many parishes, the best and safest plan,
it seems to us, would be to accept, for
the present, the old apportionment, and
then proceed to the important labors OF
the session. We are informed that some
Of the Republican Senators express a
disposition to act fairly in this matter.
We trust that our information is correct.
Even If u partisan apportionment, based
on the late census, could pass both
houses, it would provoke serious
discomfort and tend to intensity the
spirit which, in some localities,
has already rebelled against a long and
unbearable era of partisan rule, threat
ening to ripen into turbulence. All
men who have the welfare OF Louisiana
at heart, desire fair and peaceable
election, in which every man entitled to
vote shall do so unmolested, and which
shall insure fair representation OF the
public will at the ballot-box, and OF the
public interests in the State government.
| But this sort of an election can only be
had under just and proper laws, and II
the Radicals shall interfere to prevent
the passage Of an apportionment bill
which will give the white people their
due representation, and Of an act to
modify the election laws and repeal the
Returning Board, the responsibility fol
the consequences will be upon their own
shoulders. We ask for our people only
| Justice.

MAGNITUDE OF THE SUN-A recent work
on astronomy thus, by a comparison,
gives us vivid idea of the magnitude OF
the sun "Let the reader consider ter
restrial globe, three inches in diameter,
and search out on the globe the tiny
triangle speck which represents Great
Britain. Then let him endeavor to pic
ture the town in which he lives by the
very minutest pin mark that could posi-
bly, be made upon the speck. evil then
have formed some conception, though
but an inadequate one, of the. enormous
dimensions Of the earth's globe, com
pared with the scene in which his daily
life is cast. Now, on the same scale the
sun would be represented by a globe
about twice the light of an ordinary sit
ting-room. A room about twenty-six
feet in length, and height and breadth,
would be required to contain the repre-
sentation of the suns globe on the scale,
while the globe representing the earth
could be placed in a moderately large
globe"

Is THERE A RETURNING BOARD In
BRAZIL!

Mr.. Hahn, while the resolution in re-
lation to the Emperor of Brazil was un-
der discussion in the House, asked il
the Brazilians had Returning Board ;
whereupon Mr.. Murrill began to mix
up the Emperor, the Returning Board
and the Ex-Governor votes on several
questions in the most exciting and
amusing manner, but without answer
ing the important question propounded.
In reply to Mr.. Hahn, we venture to
say that no such Ubiquitous, lawle SIS and
shameful instrument OF wrong exists
under the Brazilian Government, and
that no such unprincipled men as those
who composed the majority OF the
Louisiana Returning Board are In
the employ Of the Emperor. The
Government of Brazil is an imperialism,
but it is administered, as far as posi-
BILE, in the interest Of the people, and
with view of protecting virtue, in.
dustry and property, and Of Furnishing
crime; and, as it is adapted to the
people over whom it exists, 1t is doubt.

MORE RADICAL LOGIC.

The Republican prints the resolutions
OF meeting OF the citizens Of East
Feliciana, condemning turbulence and
pledging themselves to aid in preserving
order and enforcing the law, and affiims
that the action Of the meeting confirms
all the charges made in its columns OF
riots, murder and arson, against the
people OF that section Of country. We
presume that no one has ever denied
that, owing to the incompetency and
dishonesty of the local officials and to
the general incompetency and
corruption Of the usurpators,
grave disturbances have taken place
in the Feliciana parishes. But
