New ORLEANS, October 20, 1876.
EDITOR REPUBLICANS:
1 notice this morning dispatches from
London calling on the Protestants of Ger
many and the Uaited States to protest
against the treatment of their brethren in
Spain.
have noticed for some time past that
none of the Democratic papers take notice
of the Spanish persecution, because they
are fearful Of losing the Catholic vote, for
getting that the opposition is largely in the
majority in this country.
l am and have always been Democrat,
and opposed to bringing religion into polti-
tics, but from what see going on at pres
ent am inclined to think it my duty to
vote for General Hayes.
You must have noticed few days since,
when the Bulletin and Democrat made some
comments in relation to this Spanish affair,
how quick they were reprimsnded by the
Morning Star. and how promptly they both
apologizsd. Now there is not independence
enough with the Democratic press to say q
word, and believe the REPUBLICAN is the
only paper that will do so.
There is q large, q1iet and intelligent
class of population who are independent,
and they notice these things and will gov
ern themselves accordingly when they vote.
You will see by the Enclosed slip that
Cardinal Manning indorses the action Of the
Spanish authorities, and believe you will
find tie Catholics in this country do the
same.
am of the belief that there is large
class of American Protestants in this city
who did not intend to vote for Hayes. but
if they were fully satisfied of his views on
this subject it would outweigh everything
else, and would vote tor Hayes in prefer
ence to Tilden:
Cardinal Manning has written letter to
| Methodist clergyman on the position OF
the Protestants in Spain, in which he says
$50 far as l know, the English Catholic;
have made no representation to the govern
ment of Spain in reference to the Protest
ants in that country. So far MS l know
| and l learn it also from the papers of tc
| day, the laws in Spain do not extend to the
private conscience or belief of any one, bu
restrain only the public propagation Of re
ligious tenets or worship at variance with
the religion of the Spanish people. Under
these circumstances no Catholic would con
slider any representation to be justified. TIT
Spanish people are united in faith and re
ligion, and are fully justified in preservin!
their country and their households from
the miseries Of religions conflict. And be
lieving as they do that this unity of fat!
and worship is q divine law, they hold it Il
be of the highest obligation to transmit
faithfully to their children"
lam only prompted in writing what d.
on account of tue interest feel as an Amer
lean citizen; never having held an office
nor do ever expect one. Respectfully,
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.

BRIEF MENTIoN.-Moequitoes are more
persistent than ever, end last night they
were unusually annoying.
Because United States Marshal Pitkin
found it necessary to fit up his Office in a
business-like style, he is ridiculed by per-
sons who should know better. Heretofore
the Office was little better than barn, and
nothing prevented loungers or disinterested
people examining books and papers that
were not for public gaze.
Leon, the prime Ramboli, says that the
fresh Holsters in his show case were not
really painted red, but they we're born so
the instant they were taken from pot OF
boiling water. He also says that the
French painter who painted sea shore
scene, coloring live crabs pretty red, was
ignorant of his subject.
The steamboat c. H. Durfee, recently
sunk at Alexandria, has been raised, and
is now in this port to be repaired.
Vessels in port-Fourteen steamships.
thirty-seven ships, twenty-five barks. two
briggs and five schOoners.

Abusing the Baby.

1t is subject of marvel to most people
that so many children die in infancy, but
to an observing mind the wonder is that
any children live to maturity. When You
quiet. Repose is the sweetest remedy for
nervousness or other ills; but baby is trot
ted, bounced, toted, "ketchy -ketchied,"
chucked under the chin, poked in its
cheeks, or somebody's thumb is thrust into
its toothless moHth, irrespective of need OF
ablution, and then if baby isn't happy 1t
is reputed very irritable. Tickling the
baby's feet, creeping tho fingers like the
motion of mouse across its breast, and up
into it's fat, sensitive neck wrinkles, is an
other mode of amusing and abusing the
baby.

purposes.

He WANTED A CORPORATIoN.-A couple
of gentlemen who habitually carry in front
Of them rather prominent bread baskets
are frequently annoyed by one of their en-
vious friends, who is anxious to secure a
sufficient amount of stuthng to build up his
corporation. The envious gentlemen sell
dom meets either of his friends without
chucking his stiff fingers into the pro1rud-
ing vests, repeatedly asking how it was he
could not laugh and grow fat. Said Mr.. T.
to his tormentor, Mr.. C.: Il will tell you
why-nature never could outrage itself so
far as to put bay window on second
hand beer house." The latter suddenly
waltzed around a corner to see somebody
who had gone to the centennial.

cent display. The collection of animals
and minerals can not be surpassed. The
Patent Office has large assortment of all
kinds. Models of nearly everything may
be found classed under proper head. The
Indian Bureau, poor Lo'e friend, displays
some trinkets, household utensils, articles
Of comfort and luxury, dresses Of head
men and chiefs, etc., the whole being of the
most fimsy kind. Buffalo Bill could make
better show, as he did when here at the
st. Charles last winter.
The lighthouse department makes good
showing, runs lighthouse with fog horn
and bell, showing all that is useful or that
is worth knowing on the subject.
The United States army has q company
of artillery equipped as infantry on the
ground. This company is a credit to our
regular army. 1t is perfect in all it's details.
The internal economy and discipline is
worthy of all praise.
The Chinese and Japanese department
makes fair display. Here is carved bed
stead worth $4,000.
Grom the display in this departm ent l
would say this people are somewhat civil
izsd-at least, 80 far as charges are con-
cerned, they are not one whit behind the
Western World. Ivory carving in great va.
riety, inlaid work of all kinds-gold, ebony,
mother-of pearl-aud all those little things
that look so well on lady's table, can be
had here by paying the price in gold, duty
added.
There are few very fine oil paintings to
be found here. No doubt about their age.
They are old enough to suit any one.
The Pavilion of Public Comfort ls all
that the name implies.
The Agricultural Hall contains a great
deal worth seeing. Many new machines
are here in full operation. To enumerate
them would require many columns OF the
REPUBLICAN, which, know, you can not
snare at this time. BRICQUE.

General George A. Sheridan, of Loufsi-


General George A. Sheridan, OF Louisi-
ana.
The political canvass just closed has been
remarkable one in the ability of the can
vassers on either side, and on the part of
the Republican speakers the canvass has
been distinguished for the thoroughness and
seriousness with which the work of discus
sion has been done.
There have been master minds to cham.
pion the claims of the Republican party to
the popular confidence, and the financial,
economic and political issues of the contest
have been fully and forcibly presented to
the voters. Among the abiest and most
notable of the popular orators who have ap-
peared before the people of Ohio. and one
of the most laboriOus and efficient workers
in the campaign, is the distinguished gen
tleman whose name furnishes the title tor
this article.
General Sheridan possesses in wonder
full degree all the requisites of impressive
and eloquent utterance. In personal pres
ence, expression, vim and gesture, he has
the physical requisites of an orator, and
Joined to these qualities he possesses
breadth and vividness of conception, and
| capacity for expression in language, that in
| richness, aptitude, force and variety, is I'M
surpassed. His heart has been in his work;
| and every issue of the canvass-the fnan-
| cial problem, administrative reform and the
political questions, fundamental in charac-
| ter and superior in importance to policies
or methods of administration-has been
seriously considered and mastered by him,
and then presented and illustrated before
the thousands who have listened to him,
with an earnest, honest power and eloquence
rarely equaled. He has not only charmed
the ear and stirred the sympathies of the
patriots of the country, but has contributed
largely to the elevation of popular thought
| and feeling, of popular obligation relative
| to the grave and vital matters involved in
the national political struggle. Through
| his disinterested and efficient service the
| Indifferent have been stimulated to active
concern, the prejudiced have been informed,
the doubtful have been determined, and the
voters have been rallied to the rescue. In
behalf of the thousands who have heard him.
and of our citizens generally, We tender
thanks to General Sheridan for the work so
we'll performed, and assure him that his
services have not been unappreciated by
our citizens, nor will they be forgotten
General Sheridan has LETT us to take an
active part in the canvass in New York
| We congratulate our New York friends OF
| securing his services.-Ohio State Journal

EDITOR REPUBLICANS:
The suffragans of this community have
this day witnessed a spectacle never before
known in the history of politics. candi-
date for political honors refusing the votes
of his enemy. Was it ever before known
that a General in command refused to en-
courage deserters from the enemy's camp9
Here convention, composed, AS Is well
known, of large majority Of the roughs,
"short hairs and scum of ward clubs,
dominates a ticket which neuseates nine
tenths of the voters of the city. To attach
| responsibility to it q few prominent and
honorable gentlemen are placed on 1t as
figure curtain to conceal the bell
ing cauldron Of corruption underneath. In
obedience to the popular voice, body OF
| respectable gentlemen nominate an unob-
| jectionable ticket, indorsing few of the
| gentlemen on the Democratic ticket. This
ticket they have Endorsed by the Re-
| publican convention, when, 10 the Endorsed
Democrats with pious horror throw up their
! hands aghast at the thought that Repub.
| lican should dare to handle their sacred
names, and straightway card is published

What q condition Of affairs to expose in
this centennial year, fraid that they will
be accused of sympathy ,ciM the Republican
party"
Now, Mr.. Editor, am Democrat, but I
claim the right to have this, my protest,
against the unwarranted action Of Messrs.
Pilsbury ct al. recorded in your "People's
column" and hope you will not deny me
this privilege.
Respectfully, VOX POPULI.
