From the New York World.
Views Of Lou isiana In NsgE York-

There are many Louisiapians now in
tf's city who have come North to es-
cape the heat and malorious influences
OF summer in that State. A number
OF these are at the New York Hotel,
which now as always it has done, seems
pie, and the nominations Of Wednesday
were freely and favorably discussed by
them YESTERDAY. A prominent mer-
chant Of New Orleans in conversation
with World reporter said that the
work OF the convention would be re-
ceived with the greatest satisfaction
not only in his city, where Mr.. Witt
was very highly esteemed, but in all
parts of the State the nominations Civ
ing assurance that the best men of the
party were taking vital interest in the
coming election. and that no effor. would
be spared to oust the corrupt gang who
were hurrying the State to ruin. at
is fight for the life or death Of the
business interests of Louisiana" he
said, for if Packard and Antoine are
elected reign of fraud and robbery
will be entered upon which will surpass
even that of the Kellogg regime, and
will utterly bankrupt the State and her
people" He had left New Orleans
tion of General Nichols had been sug-
gested, and knew that gentleman only
by reputation as an able lawyer and es-
timable citizen; but he thought that
the nomination was surprisingly good
one and certain OF success, unless the
Returning Board should be able to re-
peal its frauds Of 1874. As to the nomina
tion Of Packard, he said that it was ac-
cepted throughout the State as gage
against the respectable members even
OF his own party, and meaning only

the party. "The nimination, he said,
has aroused the people to well-founded
| alarm, and such an effort as has never
| characterized an election in louisiana
heretofore, will now be made to defeat
the dangerous combination formed by
the alliance of Packard, Casey, War
moth and Pinchback. Substantial bust
ness men, who have not voted for Years,
either before or since the war, are now
enro ing themselves in clubs are regis
tering their names. The white vote will
be largely increased, and very many
colored people will cast their ballots
against Packard and for the Democratic
nominees"
"There are thousands of colored peo-
pie, he continued, "both in New Or.
leans and in the interior, who have
gathered some little property since the
war. They own a small house in the
city and few acres of ground in the
country, and their interests are identi-
cal with the whites. They are effected
by the high taxes and cannot be deceived
as to the result, if Packard should be
elected. The promises made them in the
past have not been fulfilled, and the
scare-crow, which has been used with
such effect heretofore by their unscrupr-
lous leaders, that they would be remain
dcd to slavery in the event of Demo-
cratic victory,sno longer has any force
among them. The colored people. who
class in the Northern States, naturally
side with their employers and the re-
putable portion of the community in
which they I've, and, while many of them
voted with us in 1874, thousands more
will cast Democratic ballots next fall.s

A good deal has been said in the
Republican press about the parsimopy
of the Democratic majority in the
House of Representatives AS matter
of fact the country now knows that all
the Democrats of the House have done
has been to salaries of all the more or
less ornamental officials of the Govern
ment whom they could reach. No
Democrat has ever dreamed of doing
what was yesterday done by Mr..
ingalls,, Republican Senator from
Kansas, who reported back the House
bill granting a pension to the widow,
the father and the mother of General
Custer, with amendments" cutting
down the pension of that heroic
soldiers widow from $50 to $50 a
month. and striking the pension gran
ted to his aged father entirely out of
the bill! The Republicans of the SEN
ate made desperate fight to secure a
large salary to Mr.. Washburne in Paris
and to Mr.. Pierrepont in London. But
when the question comes up of allow
lag less than seventeenth part of the
annual official income of Washburne
or Pierrepont to an unhappy lady
who has been widowed in the flower
of her years by the sudden and awful
death in his country's service of one of
the bravest and truest of American
soldiers, these same Republicans have
the front of brass to advertise their
love of thrift by reducing her pension
to less than the wages of day laborer!
Is the country to understand, then
that the party of Mr.. Hayes has SO
completely surrendered itself to the
dictation of the White House that it
stands ready to inflict upon the defen-
seless and broken hearted widow of
General Custer humiliations like those
which sometime ago President Grant
stopped to devise for her gallant and
high-spirited husband while still alive?
The Democrats of the House have
done themselves credit and the exche-
quer good service by their resolute
maintenance of their retrenchments
where retrenchment was clearly a
public duty. Let them not be less de-
termined now in insisting upon bill
which, even as they originally framed
it, dees but scant justice to the feelings
of the American people and to the
merits of the heroic soldier whom the
American people so unaffectedly
honor and lament World,

SPEECH OF COL. F, A. CoNKLING, A LIB
ERAL REPUBLICAN, FOR TILDEN
AND HENDRICKS.
At Tilden and Hendricks banner
raising in New York, Col. Fred. A.
Conkling was the principal speaker
Turning to the stars and stripes hang
ing near the platform, he said: "Next
to it in honor is Tilden and Hendricks
banner. The principles of Tho JET.
ferson are the true creed of the party,
and so it might we'll be added the
Tilden platform of 1874. Itis asserted
that the Liberal Republicans are re -,
turning to the Republican ranks. A
few may do, as the dog returns to his
vomit and the hog to the mirc; bat from
experience and observation the convic-
tion arises that the great majority will
vote for reform. The Times wishes
the Republican reformers to stay in
the ranks and reform from the inside.
They did so until the entire party be-
came utterly corrupt and degraded
No truer reformer than Tilden ever
lived. He devoted eighteen months of
labor to expose the Tweed ring and
to put an end to that gigantic scheme
of robbery. When elected Governor
he worked for the same objects, and
crushed the canal ring and reduced
taxes. The people will now call him
to reform the national government. 1t
can safely be predicted that his ad-
ministration will be one of the bright
est and most illustrious in the history
of America. Let the voters unite and

DUMMY ENGINES SUCCESS. The
Philadelphia North American SAYS
that the running of dummy engines
on market street, in that city, though
neeessitated by the heat that interfer,
ed with rse.power and the necessity
of accommodating visitors to the ex-
position, has been so greatly approved
by passengers and has been so COM
pletely free from any of the evils ap-
pretended, that there is some reason
for believing the motor introduced
compulsorily will be retained from
choice and altered and amended until
it is perfect. The Reading Railroad
Company have followed the example
by the Inauguration of steam line
from Front and Willow streets to the
centennial grounds.
