than the Irish peasantry, and Mexico,
Porto Rico and San Domingo stand ready
to receive their labor if it shall be driven
from the United States by the same po-
litical intolerance which has depopulated
Ireland.
When the President shall consider not
merely the sacred pledge of the Repub-
lican party TO maintain those rights which
they have accorded the colored citizens,
but the danger 70 the national interests to
accrue from disorganized industry at
present so productive, he will be encour-
aged in the noble determination which he
has announced. It would be an addi-
tional reproach upon the Republican
party, when it has demonstrated that
emancipation has even added to the agri-
cultural values, that this harmless and
helpless industry should be driven into
the swamps or even into emigration to a
foreign country to escape the persecution
from which the Republican party should
have proved unable 10 protect it. To trans
fer million of hands from the produc-
ton Of cotton, rice and sugar in the United
States to become our competitors under
the climates more favorable to the produc-
ton of these staples elsewhere would dis
play want of courage or craftsmanship,
alike deplorable and disgraceful in the
party which should permit it.

On motion of 7. A. Flanagan, Esq the
intervention of General James Longstreet
in the case of the State VS.. Charles Clinton,
was filed in the Superior Civil Court. The
original suit is the injunction on the appro-
priation act, No. u of 1875, and the amount
claimed by intervsnor. as enjoined,
$4S7l so, and was filed IN the Superior Dis
trict Court December 10, 1876.

CHRONIC TROOP MOWERS.

There is now but one thing lacking to
make the Louisiana Democracy perma-
nently happy. They are already recon-
ciled to the failure of their schemes to
elect Tilden; they are not particularly
concerned in the election of United
States Senator; the failure of the Bra
lillian subsidy, levee appropriation and
aid for the Pacific railroad, has long
since been forgotten, and all the Demo-
Gratis who voted to withhold that much
from Louisiana have been forgiven-even
Holmsn-and ''this people" are ready to
settle down to absolute peace and quiet,
upon one small condition-the United
States troops must first be sent out of the
city. 1t is true, we have read every day
in the Democratic papers for the past two
weeks that the very next official act of the
President would be to issue the much So
licited order. If we are not mistaken one
special reporter, more jealous than the rest
of his tribe actually sent President Grant
to the telegraph Office to give the order
direct to General Augur without inrust-
ing it to the War office. But as there was
nothing of the kind received, we suppose
a sober second thought had something to
do with it. When three or four gentlemen
went to the President the other day and
pledged their personal honor that the
White Leaguers of Louisiana would be-
have themselves in case the troops were
withdrawn, they betrayed an anxiety to
share with the commander-in-chief his
constitutional duly. Tha, President evil
IDENTIFY regards all theA Intermediates
with suspicion, and the more they solicit
him to remove the troops the less DISPOSE
ton he manifests to do so. It is not for
gotten that historical character remarked
on great occasion: Gan We want is to
be let alone" There is some of this sort
of spirit at the bottom of the movement
to get rid of our peacemakers with per-
cussion locks.

ANOTHER SETBACK.


Alas after all, the promises of fat
places to the hungry Southern Democracy
are not to be kept. 1t was fond delu-
sion in the hearts of the bulldozers, that
the good things of the administration
were to be divided among them; but since
Keys letter to Merrimon this hope is
Pickering out. There is one reserved
condition: Where there are no Republic
ans competent, Democrats may have the
coveted pl aces. West Feliciana and De
Soto have already anticipated this pro-
vision, and the friends of 'local self
government" have established their claims
by assinating Weber and Moore. Had
these men lived they might have been
commissioned by Key; or, being natives
of the State, might have satisfied Sher-
mans conditions on the ground of ma
tivity. Now that they are put out of the
way, their assassins may entertain the
hope of having their merits recognized.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1877-03-23

Besides bulldozing, the Democrats have
two ways of evading the law and getting
rid of Republican officials. One way is
to destroy the Office by dividing the juris-
diction among other officers. This, Mr..
Nichols, as in the case of Judge Fonte-
lieu, appears to disapprove. But greater
obstacle to the schemes of Democrats is
the Republican State Treasurer. They
can't take away his Office nor legislate
him out of is; but they have devised a
new assistant" treasurer, whose ''assist-
ance" is to be rendered whenever that of
the Treasurer can not be obtained. In
other words, when the Treasurer can not
be made to violate the law, the assistant
will do it willingly.
