The Clinton Patriot Democrat gives
the following severe notice to the New
Orleans Republican for its premeditated
slanders upon East Feliciana:
The people Of our parish should hold
that filthy sheet, the New Orleans
Kep,tbltcnn, responsible for It's inten-
tional endeavors to saddle upon East
FeIiciana the disorders which have oc-
CURED i'm West Feliciana. Time and
again has this partisan and unscrti-
pulous sheet shouldered upon our
people, In flaming headlines, Incidents
which have transpired in our sister
parish That this Is not done through
ignorance OF the geography OF the couD-
try, but through malice, we are more
than satisfied.
The same paper gives in plain Ian
guagc the real reasons Of Kellogg for
not acceding to the request Of the citi'
zens' committee from Baton Rouge. Il
says:
That was lame excuse the usurper
Kellogg gave the committee from Baton
Rouge for not making the appointments
they desired for their parish In order to
secure peace and prosperity. He pitied
them, and was willing to relieUe them,
but could not just then make any ap-
pointments, as J. Henri Burch, u negro
Senator, would oppose and defeat them.
The fact Of the business Ia Leblanc,
Davis and Beauregard are tools OF the
man who has done so much to OppTesa
our people.
The Homer IHnd contains little SER
mon and lecture to the good people Of
New Orleans, from the pen OF Its pro-
prietor, Senator Blackburn. This is q
new role for our irrepressibie Senator to-
appear in, but we are nevertheless OF
his opinion. New Orleans people will
have to go where he says il his Radical
friends are allowed to remain at the
helm Of our poor tempest tosted ship OF
State. And the best way to avert so
great calamity, friend Jasper, Is to im.
prove the little time our numerous
holidays" leave to the Senate and to go
to work and pass reform measures, a
thing you Of the majority don't seemed
disposed to do, friend Jasper. Now that
we have given you little lecture you
did not bargain for, we will, in turn and
as in duty bound, submit to our readers
for their benefit and edification the
following extract from your sermon:
| 1t seems to me that Louisiana has
more holidays than any place ever
saw. 1 have been here in New Orleans
ON the present trip. now oyer half a
month, and the time seems to have been
very well sprinkled with holidays. First
came Christmas, then New Years, and
then the memorable Eighth" besides
several SUNDAYS, Of which to-day is one.
But all these holidays are bothers only
in the way Of official business, they are
aIl full Of fun and frolic-and none less
so than Sunday. And it is my deliberate
Opinion-and prayer-that a great por-
ton of New Orleans will ''go to help
whatever that may be or mean--for the
mean and studied desecration OF the
Holy Sabbath.
The Carroll Watchman gives the DEN
