ables them to contend with opposition, and
the fact that they have conquered their way
into territory bought with the money Of
their ancestor; ana Democracy need not
expect to conquer that spirit, for in at
tempting it it shall dash itself in pieces.
Americans, descendants of Anglo-Ssxon
origin, will never allow q mongrel race, be.

drive them from their purpose. Though
few in numbers and weak in resources, they

Death Of H. b. Rhett, Sr.

Hon. Robert Barnwen Rhert, ST., of
South Carolina, died yesterday morning at
the residence of his son in-law, Alfred
Roman, in the parish of St. James, this
State. Mr.. Rhett was born at Beaufort, in
1900, and became q lawyer and Q pro-
fessionsl politician early in life. He was an
active member of the notification party,
and was elected to the United States Senate
from his native State in 1850. In 1860 be
was among the first to advise the secession
of the Southern States, and was member
of the South Carolina State Convention
which passed the ordinance of secession.
The address which he drew up ON that oc-
casion was regarded in the South as a
strong argument in favor of dissolving the
Union.

FIRST DAY,
The following is the American score:

AT the thousand yard range, Miner, OF
the Irish team, made every one "bulls-
eyes,"
After the shooting had ended and its re-
suit announced desfening cheers for the
American and Irish tesms-wh0 appeared
to be the favorites-rent the air. The shots
of both teams were cheered individually.
the shooting were made BY Major Fulton,
Of the American, Major Leech, of the Irish,
Captain Mcdonald, of the Scotch, Captain
Morris, of the Australian and Major
O'Reilly, of the Canadian teams. Mr.. Nil
ner. Of the Irish, Colonel Bodine, of tho
American, and Mr.. Dyas, of the Irish
teams, also delivered addresses, and the
great crowd separated with uprosrious
cheers for all the teams.

is clear that many men in this parish were
deferred from attending the meeting there.
A crumpled piece Of paper covered over
with rude writing, was slipped into the
hand of one of the speakers during tho
meeting, of which this is verbatim copy:
EAST BATON ROUGE, September 9. 1876
Intelligent or we'll informed Republican
gentlemen We of the third aud fourth
ward have good will to attend the meet
ing. but we are afraid as the murders of
this country says they will watch the rode
and sec Who is the best Republican 30 they
may know who to hang when they see fir.
Republican gentlemen, you sil must con
not tend the meeting Tuesday ~ would
wish, and me for my part have no name
on this but understand am true Repub-
licsn, but as / am living out in the country
with the murders have NO name.
NO NAME NO BLAlM.
In this connection the following extract
from that high-toned Democratic daily, the
Baton Rouge Adrocate, may not be ont of
place:
The RAIDS will hold q pow-wow here to-
misrule and disorder. Such men as Pack
ard, Burch and others can not bring this
country out of the. chaos into which they
have plunged it. They are the bad eggs of
the foul Radical nest, and 1t makes no diff
ference how many fresh hens are put to
cover that meet of corruption, no good will
ever hatch out. Beware of them.
Any lack of enthusiasm in certain por-
tions of Baton Rouge may be accounted for
ss above.
The Fourth Ward German Democratic
Club, of which Mr.. M. Sbilski is president,
met last night at their hall, No. 207 Canal
street. The club indorsed the action of the
fourth ward macs meeting presided over by
Mr.. w. r. Lyman, held Tuesday night at
the Screwmen's Hall, corner of Bienville
and Exchange alley. in electing Mr.. Will
liam Fredericks as president of the mother
club, in the place of John Connolly, who,
it was claimed, was elected by fraud. Mr..
Sibilski, the president of the club, stated
that the conference committee appointed at
the mass meeting Tuesday night, of which
he was . member, had waited upsn the par
ish committee and asked that they
be allowed . representation in the
commissioners and clerks at the polls
and on the ticket for delegate to
be elected next Saturday, stating that they
had been refused any representation what
ever. II. F. Sturcken, the veteran German
Democrat, spoke at some length upon the
action of the parish committee and the
fourth ward mother club, presided over
by Mr.. John Connolly, in their refusal to
give the German element any representa-
ton in the parish nominating convention
to meet on the eighteenth instant. The
club agreed to hold q separate poll on
Saturday, as the names of some eight or
ten Germans citizens Of the ward were
proposed and rejected. There appears to
be q great deal of dissatisfoction in the
Democratic ranks in this ward over the
election to be held Saturday for delegates.
az it is claimed that the Connolly side is
the only one that will be represented at the
polls.

On some business streets, crossing is re-
quired, costing Sc per yard. This amounted
to 1886 City Surveyor Hardee considers
these estimates, except on cobble stones,
can not be reduced.
Most of the 132 canal bridges required
rebuilding, large number being danger
ous, at . cost of $25,l50. The cost of
bridges, crossings and wings was estimated
at $l4l ,902; total of $167 ,052.
An effort was made in April, 1876, to in
duce the railroad companies to repair the
streets, but with little success.
The work on the bsnquettes was: Repairs,
1876 feet; new ones built, 1852 feet. The
street repairs have been: Cobble stone,
1858 yards; square block, l24l yards.
Twenty three streets have been rebsll asted,
requiring 1900 tons at $500. and fifteen
streets reshelled, using 1897 barrels of
oyster and 25,770 of other shells, costing
$l2 124 40. There have been 1893 miles of
streets reditched and graded, and large
number filled and raised. The cart service
amounted to los, ,l32 loads. The bridges

Those CARTRIDGES.

The Times persists in presenting the mat
ter of sending cartridges to cavalry com
pany in CAtahoula in an entirely unsuthor
lied manner. In its afternoons issue yes
terday it denies the existence of any com
pany. The REPUBLICAN furnished the Times
with information on that point, but it pre-
fers to follow the want of it in the clerk.
From the last published report of the
Adjutant General is obtained the following
information: "Troop B, cavalry, Captain
James Forsyth, commissioned March 2, 1874,
and Lleutenants Bernard McCurk and s.
Alexander, commissioned March &c, 1874,
all residing at Harris0nburg. The total
of the roster at that time was forty-three."
Act No. IS of April 4, 1873, section twenty
fixes the term of service at five years.
There has been no official notice of the ter
mination OF this enlistment. The clerk of
the Adjutant General, whoever he ia, tells
the Times the only companies of militia
have their headquarters in New Orleans.
He appears to be ignorant of the existence
of Troop B.
That the cartridges were not forwarded
before must have been a mistake. A requi-
siti0n was properly made for them several
months ago, and passed through the regu-
lar channels, but the cartridges did not
come. So Captain Forsyth asked friend
to learn what the matter was The Adju-
tant General was absent, and, of course
could not attend to it. The clerk knew
nothing of it. Lieutenant Governor An
tome, ss acting Governor and commander
in-chief, put an end to the difficulty, by
issuing the order himself. Tho Times i'm
mediately saw the leaden cofins of twenty
Democrats in each capsule.
But. considering the difficulty this little
matter has made. it is pertinent inquiry,
