New Orleans Picsyune, Dec. 70

New Orleans Picsyune. Dec. Il.
Ex-Marsbal Packard yesterday
appeared at the Cnstom-House
and paid his respects to the various
heads Of departments. Physically
he has suffered nothing by niishap
or uncertainty; in TACT, it would
appear that his famous lunch with
the President has materially added
to his original rotundity. He does
not anticipate visiting Washington
at @p early date unless specially
called for, and though free cum
dida.e, of the Kellogg backing, for
the ColIectorship, has not sent il
a formal application. He chuckles
much over the seating oi Kellogg.
which he construes Ms IN acknowl-
edgment by the Senate Of his gov
eminent ss established by him In
the star-House last January. H.
does not seem to fret much for the
future, being thoroughly persuaded
that the Administration will have
to comfortably provide for him.
His broth-r-iD law, james Aver.
WAS, on Friday last, made chief
clerk in the Appraisers Depart
ment, which shows very suggest
ively that bis influence here hes
not thoroughly declined.
Anderson, still loaded with the
Cares and duties of the Collector
ship, struggles along with appli
cauts for position, making all hap
py by indefinite promises. He will
probably make some minor changes
10 favor Of personal and political
friends before the confirmation of
H Successor, but Sherman will hold
n strong check lost he should go
too far. The fact of the seating OF
kellogg has caused renewed activ-
ity among those who were left"
ON the Custom-Ho use slate. MANY
tilinE that Kellogg will control the
Louisiana appointments, while
others suggest Eustis as party
potentate; but there are yet come
who think that the President will
control them himself. How War;
moth has managed to gain small
hold on the Prssisleutiul ear is a
subject of puzzle to the wiaest
speculators, but that lie has ap ill.,
tluence is obvious.
S"gacious opinions are express
ed on all sides as to the ultimate
determination of the Coilectorslip
question; but ipasmuch as the
highest authorities al Washington
are themselves puzzled over the
local opinions do not go
FAR TO convince.

that republican, supervisors of reg,

sands OF white voters by refusing
to allow them to register, and the
coiored voters We're persuaded LIS
white republicans that if they did
not register, and vote the repnb-
lican ticket, they would be remand
ed to slavery. the sole object of
tins registration system Was to per
petnate the rule of the republican
party in Louisiana.
1t Is unnecessary to remind
our readers of the immense
expense this registration system
has entaiisd on our impoverished
State. nor of the trouble aud an
noyauce, often amounting to
practical denial of the right of SUI
irage, it has imposed upon Or
people. The only possible good
1t was ever pretended to serve is
the prevention of fraud in elections
by repeated voting. This is Ger
tainiy u commerdable object, but
OF what earthly zee is it, except in
large cities, where q voter can visit
several polls in q few hours? IL
the country, voters rarely offer 10
vote except at the poll nearest
their residence, and the right of
challenging votes has always been
fonnd sufficient to prevent repent
ing them in country precincts.
The great otJect to be secured
by new constitution, and that for
which one has become necessity,
is to abolish useless Offices, and to
save useless expenses. We are in-
formed that in the adjoining parish
OF Cameron, the last registration
OF voters cost that parish an tx
Pepse amounting TO the rate Of
about three dollars for eoerv regis
