From the Boston Traveller.
Crush the Rebellion.

The white League cutthroats and bull
dozers of Louisiana are in open rebellion
against the lawful authorities and against
the constitutional guarantees of freedom
and equal rights. They have been allowed
too much latitude already. They are en-
dangering the peace Of the whole South
and the whole country by their example
In spite Of the ADMINISTRATION delermin-
alton to recognize and defend the loyal
State government. the rebels still refuse
to dsperse and preserve the peace. They
hold the court rooms. the police stations,
and other public offices in New Orleans,
and refuse to submit to the legal author-
ties. And for every hour that they are
allowed thus to trifle with the peace OF the
State, aud to defy Republican government
they find new encouragement to outrage
every rule of decency. One of the demo-
cratic organs in New Orleans. yesterday,
announced that Nichols, the democratic
usurper. has made every preparation to re-
sist the government recognized by the
President, and that the ex-Coufederate Or
ders ''are peremptory that any riot, tu-
mutt or emeute on the part of the follow
ers of the pretender Packard shall b,
quclled by the severest measures and ~
any cost" Another democratic organ is
sued this famiog manifesto:
Mr.. Packard is playing dangerous game. The
patience of the people Is well nigh exhausted ano
If they arc forced into conflict, which is calcula
ted and designed to again rob them OF the gov
eminent Of their choice and the blessings OF
honest and efficient administration, their WRATH
will be difficult TO restrain, and We, Tor one, hope
that no hand will be able TO restrain it. If MI
Packard forces this conflict we appeal to oul
friends to spare, as far as hnsl and complete vic
tory will permit, the lives of the metropolitan
negro dupes. We advise them TO let the ful
weight Of their vengeance fall upon the leaders Of
this iniquitous, murdeious, and most damnabl,
scneme, and to follow Packard into his hotel, and
il need be, into the Custom House itself, and hang
him from Its highest window
In addition, the court organized by the
usurper Nichols, ordered its sheriff to
raise force to resist the State officers.
One of the white league militia generals
said that "if drop of blood is shed every
radical in Louisiana shall be wiped out.
and | believe the only mistake is that they
were not disposed of before"
These movements and these expressions
faithfully represent the spirit of the new
ex-Confederate rebellion, and there can
be no doubt that it threatens the peace oil
the nation seriously. We appeal to the
President In the name of justice to exert
his full constitutional power to suppress
this miserable rebellion. 1t is time to
make examples Of some of the infamous
ex-Confederate rascals who seem to have
been born for treason against free nstitu-
tions, and it is time to respond to the req
uisition OF Governor Packard, and assert
the power of the national government to
defend the State against its enemies. Let
us have peace and justice.

should be incapable of encouraging or
sbetting such trick. much more of insti-
eating 1t aud giving direct aid to its per-
petralors. If this has been done-if the
conclusion TO whit recent evidence points
is correct-it is an irreirievable biunder.
This evidence may, perhaps, be explained
away, but it has an ugly look until 1t is re-
1uted.
In no event could the Oregon trick have
succeeded; for the moral sense Of the
country would not have permitted Cro-
Minis vote for Tildcn 10 he counted. A
piece of sharp practice, designed to sub
vert the clear will of the people and sub
stantial equities of politics, could never
stand against the publ Indignation when
so great a prize as the Presidency was
staked upon it. The title of two o! the
Hayes electors was undisputcd. Those
two, being a majority, had right to or
ganize the Electoral College and iill va
cancy. They did organize and did fill the
vacancy caused by the ineligibility of
Watts. The three votes vi that completed
college ought to be, and will be, counted
for Hayes.
The new light thrown on the Cronin
farce by the testimony of Mr.. Jordan be-
fore the Senate Committee on Privileges
and Elections is too humiliating for belief
Mr.. Jordan is cashier of the Third Ma
tional Bank in this city, of which Mr.. Til
den is director and n stakeholder TO the
amount of sixty-eight thousand dollars.
Mr.. Jordan testified that W. L. Pelton,
Gov. Tilden's nephew and confidential
agent, procured the noted eight thousand
dollar check, drawn in favor OF parties in
Oregon, on the day preceding the Cronin
antics. Pelton has no money, and his re.
lations with Mr.. Tilden were too intimate
for the latter to have been ignorant of that
mysterious transaction. Thus the matter
stands. exposed to differences which are
too easily drawn. 1t is to be hoped that,
in spite of appearances, the innocence and
ignorance OF Mr.. Tilden may be salisfac-
torily established.

THE NORTH TEXAS FAIR.

The fair which commenced on Mon.
lay In this city, IL mol without it, les,
sons TO the thoughtful, When we re-
llect mat five years ago Dallas was bui
a mere frontier village, and the country
surrounding 1t but the thiuly peopled
settlement of our new state,
aud then contrast the Dallas and coun,
try of to-day as mirrored lay The fair
now in progress and we get something
Of IN idea Of tho wonderful advance
made by both, The displays made by
our merchants mechanics and farmers
would be q oredtable one in any city
in any Of the older states of the union,
The machinery from abroad on OK
hibition shows most plainly that the
brain and muscle of other states value
the business of our lusy young city,
and its trade territory No article
Of real worth available TO our
farmers but what is here on
the ground TO urge It's own claims in
person, Each merchant, business man,
mechanic and artist of our city is also
represented by the choicest of his wares
and the best products of both muscle
and brain.
These are hopeful circumstances, and
mark new era in the history of the
times. The crude modes of the old
frontier days are passing out of use, are
giving place to the improved, and better
adapted machines and modes Of the
most advanced civilization. Now and
then we meet the gray,haired veteran
Of the frontier valued and respected as
the aoo,, tcowd'W Of that civilization rep,
resented by our fair, Now and then we
see the old road wagon and rope harness
Of those early days, but they are passing
away, making room for the better and
later Now and then we see
the broad brimmcd SomJrero and
jangling spurs Of the old roysterer
of the border days but he too, is fast
becoming rara ais, and will soon
pass away forever To the stranger
who visits our fair, with the idea that
he has jumped far beyond the confines
of civilization, these things will prove
pleasant surprises, but to the old citi>
zen and he who has planted his roof
tree here, and who has erected his
affairs of devotion, they will long re-
main as pleasant assurances Of peace,
iul and prosperous future.
Proud, indeed, are we to see that per,
feet interchange of courtesy and CONS
parison Of results from which so much
good will surely come, The friendly
rivalry of exhibitors is calculated
TO OrlnS out the latent good
qualities of both head and product,
and will provo valuable lessons for
future crops and seasons. There is
one regreMblo circumstance, only,
connected with our fair, and that is the
meogreness Of the agricultural display
In a country so rich in all the essen-
tials Of agricultural wealth, and where
the actual result even this present sea.
son has been SO wonderful, the whole
area Of our fair ground should have
been crowded with specimens of grain
cotton, vegetables, stock and, indeed
everything grown and produced in this
country,
Let this be n guide for another year.
Let it not be said then, rs now, that the
merchants, mechanics and artists take
more interest in agricultural fairs thar
do the farmers themselves.

The personals advertised in the New
York Herald brought il to grief in the
courts yesterday, An advertisement in
the Sunday Herald Of the 10Th OF No"
ycmber Of last year ran rs follows
"The black mailing crowd in West
Twenty-flth street had better beware,
Cautious, 81 and 3d." The numbers
designated the house OF Phmbe Patter,
son, and when retraction was demanded
it was refused by the Herald. Suit was
brought for ten thousand dollars dana
ges, in which the defendant set up the
defense that the publication was true
but being unable TO present any evi
denco in support of the imputotion the
Jury rendered u verdict Tor the full
amount claimed, and Judge Speir, Of
the superior court, added five hundred
dollars for costs The court very
properly held that the term black
mailing, when applied to n lady, was
one OF peculiar atrocity and implied
gross immortality to be followed by eX'
tortion, making the case one for eXem
plary damages.
