Editor SENTINEL Please al
low me, through your columns. to
elucldate a point. made by the
TrliebonHe Progress in its last
issue, in reference to my last com
m%nnlcatlon to your estimablc
Journal.
The article | aiInde to, strip
ped of its tunSy envelope,
amounts to just this proposition,
which no doubt has provoked Il
smile upon the face OF the yeTiest
tyro III the study of law:
The Legislature has repealed the act
creating the Latouiciic and Terrebonnr
Draining and Land Improvement Com
pany,' ergo said Company is and cannot
be rtsurrected and ergo, Republican. who
contends, that such is not the case, is Il
traitor and a Democrat unworthy to
inhale the atmospheric air
Now. has the youthful Progress
ever heard oil the law maxim,
that ''vested rights" cannot be
divested by er post fdcto laws, or
does he think it ANTICIPATED or Oh
solete (?
Has it ever come to his ears.
that Louisiana possesses ii judi
cidry, for the express purpose of
constrHiHg the laws, manufactured
10y the Legislature, and that SAID
Judiciary has the power to, and
does sometimes, declare such laws
unconstitutional, null and voidg'
Or does he perhaps, through a
strange Authorization, imagine
himself the Louisiana Judiciary
as a certain inmate 0fthe jackson
institution believes himself to be
the Emperor Of China Nov, the
question not having been tested
yet before the Courts, remains
open, and may yet be thus tested.
ana every man OF sense mast see,
that, such being the case, and
surprising, tillt it we're the inten-
ton, topush the matterto aniSsue,
the action proposed Oh my part.
i'll my communication, wonid be
perfectly correct and justitiable,
while the gentleman from Teira-
bonnie has decidedly "put Ills foot
in it,.
If the Editor of the Progress
will but reflect a little, he will
see, that his position is entirely
untenab!e.
AZ regards his excrucia,ing at
temptS to pour out his via!s of an
dlgested sarcasm over MY head.
they can but provoke IL smile.
The whole matter was not stirred
up by myself, nor any other Las
tonrche man, but by gentlemen
of his own Parish. Nobody here
has expressed a wish to e the
old company revived. Neither
has, heretofore, the old company
itself dreamed of opposing rs
