The hope OF the South is in the Democratic

MI. Hayes, II he hopes to obtain the sup

should look to this alliance Of the Southern

to be crushed he must ally himself with the
Democratic party apparently realized
this fact, but is yet moving In the dark.
He has evidently mistaken the sentiments of
the Southern people, and has recognized as
representative men men who represent moth
ing in Louisiana politics at least, save lust
of place, time-serving and trickery. Lou
isana conservatism is an unknown quantity,
q something without shape OF purpose which
is heard Of on the eve Of our conventions,
for recognition and Office, full
of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
The representatives of this nonenity in Lou
isiana politics the President has accepted as
the representatives of the people of Louis
lana. We assure the President that the peo-
pie of this State are Democratic, and that the
Democratic party will control the politics Of
Louisiana for years yet to come. If his pur-
pose Is to rally a support to his administra-
lion and advance the alliance we have sug-
5ested, he must recognize Democracy as the
controlling power In Southern politics.

Of those descendants, several fell in the

Our morning dispatches contain some very
significant news from France. MaeMahop
seems to be justifying the accusation made
against him at the time Of his accession b.
the presidency, that he was an "old Marshal
OF the Empire with pronounced Bonapartist
tendencies" The government has decided to
call the election for members of the new
assembly within three months after the disso-
luton Of the old, as the law requires, and has
therefore announced that the first election
will be held on September is, instead Of Octo-
Der Is, as was originally intended, and the
second ballot Oh September 80. The Assem-
bly, is to meet ON October 8.
But the character Of the ticket announced
by the administration overcomes all pre-
sumptions arising from this slight conces-
sion to constitutional authority: 1t is COM
posed Of two hundred and thirty Bona
partists, one hundred and seventy-six Lee
gitimists, and one hundred and seventeen
Orleanists, and if a majority of these are
elected, the fate of tie Republic will become
involved.
However this may be. it is very plain that
under MacMahons administration. and. in
deed, within the past year, the Bonapartists
have developed from mere faction, com
posed OF an insignificant number of Senators
and members Of the Assembly, into a very
formidable party This condition of affairs
In France will lead many persons to believe
that the star of the young Napoleon is de-
cidedly in the ascendant
