We have urged that it was natural to pre-
sumo that Louisiana would east a Republican
majority because a large majority Of its legal
voters were colorcd. In reply il is now pre-
tended that the registration, which shows an
excess of colored voters, must have been
fraudulent because the white and cOlorcd
population appeared nearly equal BY the
census of 1870. Two facts dispose of this
theory.
!. According to the census of 1870 there
were in Louisiana 1j,1SG male adults who
were not citizens. and nearly all OF them were
whites. 1t is notorious that large number
of the natives Of France ana other countries
residing in Ncw-OIleans, have never been na'u-
ralIzcd, prefer to retain their citizenship III
other lands, and cannot vote mere.
II. The Ncir- OylcdRS Pjcdymc a leading and
extreme Democratic paper, in August, 1873,
explicitly admitted the change in the popua-
ton of Louisiana which we have mentioned.
1t said: "For the past six years there has
" been a steady influx Of negroes from Nlr-
" GINA, North Carolina. and South Carolina,
some planters importing as many As hun
"dred at time, and during the same period
"there has been as steady an emigration Of
"white people to Texas and other localities
" free from the curse of Rad.calism Ne
"groes have been conycrging upon Lou
"isiana, and whites have been radiating
from it," Accordingly, the State census
of 1915 showed colored population of 49,
Gil against a white population of 4O4,9l6,
and from the white adults must be deducted
those who are not citizens. The PjcayUae does
not mention another and very potent cause of
the admitted change. Colored people have
moved to Louisiana by the thousand, espc-
cially during the last year since the State census
was taken, because of political changes and
the treatment they received in Mississippi,
Alabama, and Georgia OF the fact there is
abundant proof, and the number OF voters who

The dispatches of our staff correspondent in

and those who wish To get an intelligent and
Trustworthy notion of the issue there as If adj

than to follow the reports Of an observer who
Is at once accurate and impartial. In an in

ton of the fact that in two Rcpub-
lican parishes but one Republican vote
was p0llcd, viz, in Gov. kcllogg'S state
mcnt that negroes often changed their voting
places, as they can legally do, and usually
voted in drovcs. The Republicans have found
the trap in the Democratic proposal that they
shall agree upon some mode of securing fair
count of the votes "actually cast and do not
intend to bind themselves TO such a course
when the votes "actually cast" probably in
cludr many cast in defiance Of law, or do not
include many that would have been cast if
law had had ITS proper sway. IN South Caro-

come to the conclusion that, though the result
of the election may not be known, the cam

The statistics of immigration for the first
ten months of the current year indicate Il
falling Off from the diminished figures of last
year, but only a fraction OF the decrease which
last year itself showed in comparison with the
wear before The number of arrivals has
dropped from 10000 i'll 1871 TO $1,000 IN
1873, and then to probably 10000 in 1876.
The comparatively slight decrease III the
present wear seems sufficient to warrant the
hope that the cbb of the tide is almost over, and
that before long the stream OF immigration
that has done SO much to enrich the country
will be again setting III upon our shores.

consequent paralysis OF manufacturing interests,

The residents of Murray Hill, who are still
enduring the odOrs that come over the East
River from Hunters Point, expect to renew
their efforts OF last Winter to get bill
through the Legislature giving Boards OF
Health power to bring actions against pro-
motors of nuisances though the nUisanccs
themselves may be beyond the territory OF
which they have jurisdiction. The most
effective measure which these gentlemen can
take toward securing this legislation during
the coming session will he to look sharply after
the composition of the Assembly Committee
on Public Health 4 committee which can be
b0ught-and committees have been bought
will always be likely to find purchasers at
Hunters Point. When the persons most in
tcrcsel in the abatement Of these nuiSanceS
think they have secured an honest committee,
let them see to it that that committee makes an
early report or gives a good reason foi not
doing il. The last Assembly Committee on
Public Health reported the bill fayorahiy-but
it was too late to pass it. once ought to be
enough with a result of that kind.

Harmony is not characteristic Of the National
Board of Fire Underwriters. The withdrawal
of two large English companies from its mem
bership is not likely to imperil its existence,
as it has passed through many like vicissi-
tudes Very manifestly the insurance cOmpa-
MES that have offices IN this city find it for
their interests to agree upon rates for risks,
and also upon commissions TO agents. Immc-
diatcly after great fires such as those of
Chicago and Boston, there is no difficulty
about securing unanimity on these points.
But after recovery from the shock of loss,
there will always be some companies anxious
to obtain new business by underwriting their
rivals, either by means of lower rates or
through higher commissions. at such periods
the bonds of membership are sure to relax.
1t is better as a matter of morals if for no
other reason for the disconnected companies to
withdraw, rather than to pretend compliance
with the rules of the board and secretly viO-
late them.

strong, on May I'd, and started
Westward next day Those who
have made the trip to Arizona
will not envy them its hardships;
and, more than that, they seemed
doomed to utter disappointment.

are wise enough to abandon the
idea. Already thirty or forty men
