of the United States are express (section
1882 in saying he is required to issue the

fees of 81 70 and 50 10. But when
Charles Sumner devised his civil rights
bill he had in his mind the $40 fee that
every commissioner used to receive for
sending negro back to slavery, and in
com piling the law he made the compen-
sation for the commissioner who should
protect his newly acquired franchise fee

commissioner could have charged in &C

Chloe 10 Louisiana Is invested. Is ap-
pears, now, that the Nichols people
win be compelled 20 an back from
their advanced positions. The result
Of the Cabinets deliberations appears to
be that the status quo as ii existed in Jan
uary is to be resumed This will prove
bitter disappointment to the Nichols
people; the new harbor masters and tax
collectors will feel the blow the severest
while those who have paid their taxes to
the Nichols appointees out of excessive
confidence may come to realize, when re-
quired to pay over again, that they have
no redress; that those who have received
the revenue gave no legal bond to any
one authorized to accept il, and there is
nothing to prevent the acting officials
from devoting the amounts collected to
their own purposes and going abroad to
enjoy the wealth they have cajoled from
a too confding constituency.
The Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Times, March %, says:
The President said tonight that he will
main the status quo in Louisiana with rigid
hand. This is important, as it puts the con-
ditiOn of affairs back where they were three
weeks ago. 1t will stop the action of both
governments, and be especially severe on
that Of Nichols, which has been going on
steadily in gaining possession of the State.
1t has collected taxes and was rapidly
providing ont Packard.

A NOBLE CHAMproN.

We have been permitted to read most
interesting letter received by Marshal Pit
kin this morning from William Lloyd
Garrison, of Boston, Massachusetts, the
father of the abolition movement in Amer
lea. The distinguished writer remarks
that ''to withdraw the United States
troops and leave Governor Packard to his
fate, would be to connive at bloody usur-
patton and subordinate the general gov
ernment to the insolent behest of LEGAL
rufianism. Further on he says:
1t was q very serious mistake made by
President Grant and his advisers to 60 NO
farther than to instruct General Augur
simply to prevent q conflict of arms. The
responsibility rested upon their shoulders
up to the last moment of their remaining
in Office, and they should have discharged
it with fFmness and courage instead of
thrusting it upon q new administration.
Fiat jastittG, ratGt celuna.
Mr.. Garrison comments with char
acteristic vigor upon Stanley Matthews
proposition to Governor Packard 'to sur
render to the usurper Nichols, and hand
the State government over to him and his
armed myrmidons," and then remarks;
The reply of Governor Packard was
worthy Of James Otis or Samuel Adams
who lived in the times that tried mems
soRls as we are now living.
The noble American thus concludes his
letter:
My testimony shall not be wanting.
Yours, for the right, unCOmpromisingly

ABOUT STATE TAXES.

A great many foolish people are sub
hitting to the demands of the Nichols
tax collectors, under the delusion that
they represent a de fdcto government and
the receipts given will be good whatever
may be the final adjustment of our politi-
cal troubles.
They viii pay dearly for this blunder.
The collections now being enforced, are 8
direct and fragrant violation of the status
quo orders, and no quittance of tax obi
cations will even be entered on the legal
rolls in consequence of such payments.

NOT A TRUE BILL.

On Saturday last, without previous mo-
tifcation, and to the complete surprise Of
the Republicans and other members who
object to dragging politics into business,
the Democrats at the Stock Exchange
forced through resolution indorsing
Nichols for Governor, and declaring that
all the moneyed interests of New Orleans
support his claims. Without commenting
upon the manner of the passage of this
resolution, we desire to ask the bulls of
State bonds if they have not been given
very positive and damaging proofs that
this latter assertion is untrue2
