We had the pleasure Of call on Tuesday
morning from Miss Tennie @. Claflin, the
sister Of Mrs. Victoria G. Woodruff, whom
she accompanies on her lecturing tour. We
confess to quite an agreeable surprise in the
personal appearance and very pleasant manner
Of this lady. She was dressed in blue walk
ing suit, with rather long but neatly made
cloak of the same color, and wore q jaunty
little hat with quite coquettish arranged
feather attached. She is about the medium
height, and rather slightly built; her hair is
quite dark, but her eyes are delightful blue
rivaling in color the beautiful blue Of her
costume, and are exceedingly bright and
sparkling at times. then again they assume 3
soft and tender expression, making her look
quite pretty and interesting. II the peculiar
doctrines advocated by herself and her elo-
quent sister produce suoh happy state Of
feeling as is depicted on her countenanoe,
and have in store for their believers such q
fund of personal b .auty as has fallen to the
lot Of Miss Claflin. we have no doubt that the
Knowledge of the fact would cause grand
rally to the standard upheld by this lady.
Mrs. Woodruff will give her first lecture in
this city at St. Patrick's Hall, on next Sunday
svening. taking her text from Corinthians
III chapter, 18th and 18th verses.

WELL-TIMED WARNING AND COUN-
Sci.

Respecting the brief, pertinent eloquent
and comprehensive address of the Democratic
Conservative State Central Committee, we
have no remarks to make The document
speaks for itself, and wherever it may be read
it viii have its intended effect It is con-
densed summary of the financial and political
condition of the State, resulting from Radical
misrule and usurpation. II is signal to the
people to rally in earnest, vigorous and con-
tiuued action for the redemption Of the State,
and it is likewise warning and admonition
to al true citizens as to the purposes Of our
adversaries, the means upon which they rely
and the potent aid which they depend upon
from the leaders of the Radical party of the
North.
The address comes in good time to
strengthen and reassure the friends of reform
and the toilers for the redemption of the
State who are now waging war against usurpa-
ton in our General Assembly.
The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1876-02-16

and ample means to suppress vice, TO protect
property, to promote order, 70 enforce law, to
overawe rufianism, to guard sacred rights, to
preserve peace. and to guarantee the lives Of
the people against violence. The police Of
this city, acting honestly. under honest and
judicious management, might have been q
very powerful ally of the law and might have
made of New Orleans model of order and
deoorum. The power, the means and the
material for creating the finest, truest and most
serviceable police in the world were not
wanting.
What might have been is now only theme
Of regretful fancy. What has been instead is,
and has long been, painful reality, full Of
the suggestions Of humiliation and sorrow.
Our tax-ridden city has paid roundly for q
police which has been under the control of
usurping State officers. New Orleans has
been compelled to pay for the support of
body of men, nominally city police, which
has been in reality nothing else than body
guard for Radical officials.
We can not now find room to recapitulate
the salient facts developed in this interesting
report It will be read by many thousands
with intense interest, and all will concur with
the committee in the ardent wish "that the
metropolitan police and its present odious
board shall be abolished forever"

CUR POLICE AS IT Is.

Readers are referred to the ample and most
interesting report of the House committee
raised to investigate the affairs of the metro
politan police, of which the Hon. George W.
Dupre, Of Orleans, is chairman. It is the re-
suit Of long and diligent investigation. The
facts elected are not methodized and collated,
but they are given as they were received. 1t
is we'll that they are thus placed on record,
SO that every citizen may know, if he cared
to inquire, what sort of police we pay for at
very high figure.
The plenary power conferred by State en-
actments on the Board of Metropolitan Police
Commissioners was such as to enable them,
had they been SO minded, to close up all the
haunts of vice, all scenes of dissipation, all
alluring eatexays to debsuchery and all the
purlieus or moral corruption within the
boundaries Of the city and metropolitan po-
lice district.
There was no limit fixed to the number Of
policemen whom they might employ, nor to
the wages which they might offer. They
had the power to pay for men Of the RICH.
kind. and the power to rgmove the dishonest,
the inefficient, the cowardly, the dissipated,
the vicious, the inebriate and the unfaithful.
Since the Inauguration the OF Safe police for
the city and vicinity times have been hard,
and regiments of good men of solid charac-
ter and reliable qualities could have been
found end mustered into service at any
time. Never before in the history
Of this or other cities has there been 80 nota-
bic an opportunity 10 employ ample power

SHAM LEGISLATION.

Will the day ever come when the members
Of our Legislature will meet like men Of bust
ness, at once begin to transact the business Of
the State and persevere in that business, from
day to day and from week to week, until by
common consent they conclude that there is
nothing more to be done? Legislation is
nothing more nor less than business which
men do best when they 60 about it with the
honest spirit of hard and steady work. 1t is
stituents, an abuse of the money Of the
people, ian abuse of public patience, an
abuse Of popular favor, an abuse of the privi-
leges Of representative government, and Sc
rious perversion Of most important functions,
to change legislative body into an arena
of wordy debates. It is almost desecra-
ton to turn the hall Of legislation, which
ought to bs held sacred as the temple Of lib
erty, law and justice, into theater for
political debates. The State pays for
work and not for talk; it pays members to
labor for the promotion of the good of
the people and not for working for per-
sonal ends; it pays them for SO working as to
show their true strength and industry in
doing good for the Commonwealth, and not
for showing their adroitness in splitting
logical hairs, their skill in rounding periods
or their prowess in parliamentary tactics.
The people desire and pay their Senators and
Representatives to constitute an economical
Legislature instead Of costly debating club.
With due allowance for average vanity
and eagerness to win reputation and power,
an intelligent stranger would be astonished
aud ashamed to see and hear what is done
aud said daily in the rotunda, parlors,
drawing rooms and chambers of the St. Louis
Hotel.
Perhaps this perversion of legislative func-
tions is one of the incurable consequences of
party politics. In all our American bodies
forming the law-making part Of government
there is always to be heard much debate on
topics which have little or no bearing upon
any proper business and there is always much
done, the motive and cue of which are far re-
moved from any regard for the public good.
There are members whose monomania
is for talking, and who are never
satisfied otherwise. There are many others |
whose minds run exclusively upon
and intrigue. There are as many
more whose absorbing passion is to win high
positions and to retain them. There are
others who care for little else but money.

hose who seek their own good rather than
he good Of the Commonwe slth.
We may impute much of this grievous
abuse of legislative functions to the conspicu-
,usly evil example of our Federal Congress.
