Social Bnds.-It is wonderful how
the birds love the cOmpanionship of
men. Even the Indian recognizes this
liking, and puts up his gOurd shell for
the purple martin, the cOlOred man in
the South in like manner sets up a ca
labash, while in our villages are seen
martin houses. often evincing taste in
their construction. But the American
swallows formerly kept aloOf from
men, and in the West the Martin still,
as of old, builds in hollow trees. Some
of our migratory birds are seen with us
in the winter. This is explained, /
think, by the agricultural habits of
men. Wherever agriculture fiOurishes,
so will insects, and the fields of the
husbandmen are thus attractive to the
birds who come thither with their
sweet voices and good deeds. Now this
fact does, in time greatly modify the
migration impulse. The blue bird is
frequent visitor of our gardens in win
Ter, though not in large numbers. He
now finds his food in the larvae of
those insects which are the pests of the
farm: and it is pleasant to watch him
peeping round palings and under led
ges and rails for this food.

The More Light Vessel. east
of the seaport of Sheerness, in Eng
land, the mouth of the River Thames,
just where it joins the North Sea, is
called The More" Here the channel
is obstructed by sandbanks, on one of
which there is floating light.
"But how is this light kept in place ~
you will ask. Well, vessel is an
chOred on the sandbank, and here men
live to take care of the vessel, and to
keep the light burning at the masthead
at night, so that ships may be warned
off from the shoal places.
A weary time the poor men have who
live here. Sometimes, in stormy wea-
ther, they do not go on shore for seve-
raj days together. But in summer it
is not so bad; for then they can often
go to the shore in their small boats,
and learn the news, and lay in food for
stormy weather.
There are floating lights similar to
this at several points on the coast of
America.

VOUCHES FOR TAEMANy

A Democratic journal thus vouches for
Tammany:
Now we wish to say one word n regard
to TaYumanys rule, which came so near
running botn New York and the Demo-
cratic Conservative party. Let 1t always
be remembered that the Tammany ring
was overthrow by Democratic votes. In
deed, It's power could have been shaken by
no other means.
The Tammany ring changed hands by
Democratic discussions. Tammany Hall
still possesses the same political preten-
sions that it ever did. 1t still claims the
right to distribute the spells of Office.
The fragrant outrages perpetrated by the
chief OF Tammany, Tweed, and his as
sociate sacEems, Connolly, Genin & Co.,
We're the immediate cause Of their prose-
cution and exposure by the Republican
press Mr.. Tilden has had abou. as much
to do with the capture OF Tweed as the
farmers dog who throttles broken down
fox has had to do with the chase which
exhausted him. Tammany ring has not
been overthrown, it merely bands together
other material. John Kelly, president Of
the Tammany Hall Democracy, was hos
tile to Mr.. Tilden's nomination; he will
supper. his election. Belmont, the
foreign banker, and Schell, the stock
broker, are Tammanyites, and exhort the
whole Democracy in and out Of that asso-
citation to unite in the success Of the

TIE COLORED sUBMIssTONIsTs,

To read the Picaylne one would sup
pose that the colored voter has, like the
servant of Robinson Crusoe, prostrated
himself on the ground, taken the foot of
the White Lacquer, and placed it On his
head in token of perpetual bondage.
1t is true the colored voter is in fear Of
his life. He fears the denial of his rights
and those Of his own labor, but he can
read of, and listen to, the massacre Of
Colfax, the assassination of Feliciana,
and the invasion Of South Carolina by
unmasked Ku Klux Of Georgia, and feel
conviction that his only chance for
safety consists in the continued ascend
ency OF Republican principles. The
colored voter could only be induced by
threats Of assassination to commit his
rights to the keeping of the Ku-Klux and
the assertion that he promises to
vote for such enemies would of
itself justify Federal Intervention for the
cause Of Wholesale intimidation. We
have no cause to spprehend the submits
sion Of the colored voters until, as re-
Gently in Feliciana, the rope is placed
aroung their necks and they shall have
been swinging clear of the ground few
minutes. Such are the White League con-
yerts. We ask any how long before they
would relapse? Only until assurance of
Republican protection should be given
them. We regard the claims Of colored
submission to the White League bands as
indicating such intimidation as to justify
Of itself the immediate dispatch of ade-
ouate force to insure that the converts
choose freely the ticket which they intend
to support.

SHALL PERISH By THE SWORD.

When a hasty tempered Christian III
a paroxysm of unregulated zeal smote an
ear from servant of the High Priest, he
was admonished that those who take the
sword shall perish by the sword. This
was literally fulfilled in the prosecutions
that followed, though we have no idea that
the violent men who disregarded this law
against assault were caught in that awful
snap. They never are, those violent men.
They get very angry with those who are
worse armed or weaker than themselves,
and become suddenly prudent at the sight
of a Roman centurion or Federal SER
geant and squad.
The Democracy Of Louisiana have en-
ployed this agency to overthrow the
amendment to the constitution. First
they suppressed their party name, and
even nominated Republican for the
Presidency; then they taught that any
government obnoxious to any who wanted
its offices themselves might be rightfully
overthrown by force Of arms-all under the
constitution of the United States. The
Democracy have harangued the clubs up
on this doctrine. They have convened
the rank and fle-haye ordered arms
from the North, and ordered the
merchants to pay for them, on pain Of
a withdrawal Of White League patronage.
The subordinates thus taught and armed,
have declined to surrender either their
convictions or their Remingtons. Worse
than this, they have employed the argu-
ment and the ammunition served out to
them by the White Leaguers, and now
give those leaders taste of their own
doctrine. Here is what the Bulletin, as an
outspoken advocate Of law and order,
seriously solicitous that the Radical
party shall be excluded and the Conserva-
tives installed, has to say on this point:
We distinctly assert, and with an abso-
lutte knowledge of the truth OF what We
say. that the existing party organization IN
New Orleans lie in the hands OF men who
have already parceled out the citys official
property just as conquerors distribute
provinces, and this without any concern or
atfectation of concern for the public wei
fare. without any pretense of a scheme OF
public progress. To capture these princely
revenues, to appropriate the places of trust,
honor and emOlumant within the gift OF
New Orleans. and to perpetuate themselves
and the oppressive and wasteful institu-
tions which burden private industry and
throttle public neutrality-suspicious. are the
objects they have in view and will hesitate
at no means of attaining. 1t is the Aneri-
can version of the Commune.
With this organization where is Mr..
McEnery? where General Ogden? where
even the pacific Penn, or the prudential

BOUND FOR BATON ROUGE.

A large number of delegates to the
Democratic convention, and thirty-six
convicts for the penitentiary, left New
Orleans on Saturday evening tor Baton
Rouge, per steamer Natchez. Of the pris-
oners, whose seats will not be contested,
there were twenty-three men, white and
colored, and thirteen women. 1t is not
unlikely that some Of the deputy sheritis
and guard were delegates, and in that
case they will kill two birds with one
stone, by making expenses and voting for
Governor. The Den2ocra. speaks of the
prisoners as Captain Pegram's boarders,
bound for trip to Baton Rouge, saying:
They will all, however, spend the greater
part of this centennial year at the above
place, and some of them, if the climate
suits, will remain fer several Yeas; if not,
they will continue their excursion to the
ietties, where they will amuse themselves
by assisting Colonel Eads. Others will
rusticate through the forest, and occupy
their time by cutting crossties Tor the
Texas and Pacific railroad. Those whose
health will not permit of SO laborous 2
labor will be conveyed to the watering
places: that is, along the Mississippi river,
aud will give their assistance in preventing
all overflow. These noble statesmen will
toll for their country by the sweat of their
brow, and will ask 10 compensation for
the same.
Editorially the Democrat wakes eloquent,
bidding the steamer ''Godspeed, and
saying:
,S.A
saw the steamer, after backing from the
wharf and gracefully turning its sharp
prov up stream, dart with its intellectual
freight toward the former apital of Louis
lana, to think that those citizens on board.
who are delegated to the sacred mission Of
choosing leader to marshal our hosts to
victory, all felt the weight Of their respon-
sibility and were actuated with the single
and divine thought of doing their duty, all
their duty, and nothing but their duty.
On the other side, another and not inferior
sentiment of pride pervades our heart when
we thought that among the numerous can
didates who, obeying the spur OF a noble
ambition, were seeking the highest honor
that the citizens of Louisiana could confer
upon one Of her sons, none were unworthy
Of the trust.
There were sons Of Louisiana in hand
cuffs and sons of the third ward ready for
fsticufts, all making up the intellectual
freight which darted toward the former
capital Of Louisiana as the steamer turned
her sharp prov up stream. The eulogy
on the departing steamer is mixed and
confusing, and the proceedings of the
convention are expected to be in the same
condition in its struggles with contesting
delegates, and for chairman and platform,
to say nothing Of the trouble that will
occur in finding candidate willing to be
Governor. Referring again to the men
carrying intellectual freight, the brain
stevedores, as it were, the Democrat says:
Eve follow them in soul up the mighty
river. 1t is the meandering of an unfet-
tered soul on the banks of saline stream,
the lowering OF an imaginative mind over
a party that is to be borne up the mighty
Salt river Godspeed the Natchez, dele
gates and prisoners.

Wilt? Superseded, and in a political
sense despised. They have persisted by
the sword which they were themselves
the first to draw. They can not restrain
the power which they were the first to
evoke. Lafayette and the Able Sieyes were
soon run over by the French revolution,
and even Danton and Robespierre, the
first patrons Of the guillotine, were among
its victims. Notification is a bad doc
trine to teach any except the most
minute metaphysicians.
Tell the average Democrat the law
does not bind him to submit to
.'usurper," and he che1ishes that dogma
for application to any one who may hold
anything which the average Democrat
wants. If he should take fancy to the
same Office with his commander, SO much
the worse for the commander. He will
draw the same dogma, and cock the
same revolver conided to him for the
promotion of others to secure his own
rights according to his own construction.
1t is perhaps too late for the Bulletin to
warn the White Leaguers that those who
take the sword shall perish by the sword.
This admonition was not more true when
first uttered than it is now. The White
League commanders who have been
shelved by 'sthe American Commune Of
the Bulletin will be just as certainly the
the victims of this lawless doctrine as
were the innocent apostles who protested
against the lawless use of the sword, and
yet persisted by the lawless use Of the
sword
