Just after the war, 1t was prophecied
that the large plantations, under their
new system of labor, would have to be
divided into small farms. This did
take place, to considerable extent, far
more than most persons conceived, ms
the average area of a Louisiana planta-
ton decreased nearly 60 per eent-from
536 acres In /. 1860 to 247 acres in 1870.
This idea of small farms appears to
have again broken out. During the
past few months an unusual, unprece-
dented number of plantations have been
divided up in Iberia, Jefferson, La
fourche and elsewhere. This does not
spring from the fact that large planta-
tions are not profitable, for they have
been of late more profitable than ever,
particularly so, but to the increase Of
white labor In the State. White men
will work only on farms Of their own,
and 1t is this feeling, and this alone.
that has caused the division of some Of
the large plantations into small farms.
And this increase of small farms Is a
proof that white labor Is yearly increas-
ing In this State and taking the place
OF colored labor. ..-

.e...- NJ j. Herald
Mr.. Hayes surprised and routed the
enemy In brilliant style. The country
applauded to the eeho--and then waited
for the next step, for the real advance
movement. And it waits still. Every
body believed that he would at
last settle the interminable Southern
middle and relieve an anxiety which
has tortured not only the South but the
North for too many long years. And
what has he done? By deciding for q
commission he has plunged us all back
into the dolorous uncertainty In which
we lived under Gen. Grant. His dilatory
and wagering policy infliets daily and
very serious losses-upon every industry
in the Union. Southern men plead for
o settlement, because the uncertainty
tions. We hear OF rice and sugar plant
atoms abandoned for the year, the stock
sold end the laborers sent away, because
factors prudently refuse TO make adj
vances to planters to pay their hands
until they live under settled and law
full government. Everywhere In the
two States labor Is demoralized, enter
prise Is at q standstill, capital is wasted
and poverty and vice increase but
Northern industry and enterprise are
checked and embarrassed as we'll. No
one, North or South, feels certain of
the future while State can be held by
Federal bayonets; while violence takes
the place OF law and popular will
while the country lives outside OF the
constitution and in condition of
quasi war; while, any day, unserupu-
lous demagogues may goad an exas.
perated people to an outbreak In order
to provoke new military occupation.
The Herald approves and means to
defend the Presidents policy. We
should lament to have to defend
1t against it's author. Nor do we appre-
bend that we shall have SO melancholy
task; for we believe Mr.. Hayes to be
sincere man, neither self-seeking nor
weak. But we speak only the senti-
ments OF his best friends and most earn
est supporters, of the very men on
whom, by and by, he will have to rely
for support In his policy Of reform,
when we warn him that this
delay In the settlement of the
Southern question exposes not only
the country but the policy to which he
is devoted to many needless perils;
that action Is necessary for his own sal
walton, and that he cannot hope to sue
coed against the elements which are
arraying themselves for his overthrow
and humiliation, unless he Is prompt
aS well hS ueJeEnineu. beyOnd all MS
predecessors he is bound TO fulfill his
promises, for he has voluntarily made
very definite engagements; he has APP
pealed to the best and wisest men
OF both parties to help him; he is
under no obligations to any party
which can tie his hands; he Is in q
peculiar and solemn manner bound to
be the President of the whole people
and to seek only the good of all. But
when he decided to send com mission
to Louisiana instead Of withdrawing the
troops he did not act on the advice Of
the men who believe In his policy, but
on that Of men who are secretly or
openly hostile to 1t and determined to
defeat it; and the same is true of the
proposition now made with regard to
South Carolina. That in itself ought to
put him on his guard.

DIE. MARY WALKER IN COURT.
An Appeal to secretary sherman for
Aid which was Not Given.
Especial to the N. Y. World.l

Alu WHRCR WAS MOI NAFeMs
Especial to the N. Y. World.1
WASHINGTON, March GA week ago
DR.. Mary Z. Walker was elected from
the Treasury building in pursuance OF q
standing order, which the doorkeeper
not come there unless properly attired
In woman's clothing. To-day she had
the doorkeeper before the police court
on charge Of assault, and he made q
statement that he told her she knew she
had violated this order while his
attention was called elsewhere; that
he respectfully asked her to
leave the ante-room, which she fatty
refused to do, and subsequently struck
him over the head with parasol, at the
same time threatening to use pistol.
He told her that II there was to be any
shooting 1t must be done out doors, and
proceeded to eject her by taking hold of
her wrists and putting his arm around
him on the shins, striking him over the
head and punching him In the ribs with
a parasol. The special policeman in the
building testified that Miss Walker
talked loud, called him miserable viii
lain and acted otherwise in disorderly
manner. The Doctor took the stand,
and admitted that she resisted as best
she could, declaring at the time that she
was an American citizen and had as
much right In the Treasury as anybody
else, and called upon the Secretary
to protect her. Whether Secretary
Sherman, who was in an adjoining room,
heard those frantic appeals or not, ne
did not respond. She denied having
talked loud, though excited, when her
dress was alluded to, which she re-
garded as an insult. The Court said he
felt somewhat embarrassed in giving
Judgment. He thought DR.. Walker
ought to be respected as much In the
department as any one, and would take
the personal recognizance of the Door
keeper, Mr.. Baker, for his appearance
has for years made herself quite OBJ
noxious at the White House, depart
ments and Congress by her mode Of
dress and her obtrusiveness, and Off
Gals have long since given orders that
they would not be bothered by her.

Cock fighting is breaking out again

Cock fighting is breaking out again
In this State as an amusement. There
has always been love for cock fighting
in Louisiana, the legacy OF Spain, but
1t has never ragged as 1t does now. DON
aIdsonville boasts of It's new cockpit ;
Thibodaux amuses itself In this manner

OF the country comes the joyous news
OF cock mains. Here is an opportunity
for some Northern Radical paper. The
atricals and circuses have proved
sad failure here the past year,
but cock fighting succeeds. Is this
not proof that the Louisianian Is
barbarous, savage and bloodthirsty even
In his amusements, and loves nothing
more, In the way Of fun, than a good,

and political relations incident
to our form Of government, and the per-

which to present the louisiana
question" on all occasions. We know
enough OF the character OF the Northern
people to feel and express entire conf

referred to will be absolutely conclusive
to their minds as to the propriety and
necessity OF upholding in this State the
only government which has any sub
stantial existence and is competent TO
protect the lives and the property OF
the people.
We take occasion, in this connection.

the ability and success with which our
Congressional delegation have piloted
us through the breakers which have en-.
Yironed and imperiled our ship Of State

SIR JUNG BAHADooR's FUNERAL.


Three of His Principal RANGES Burned

The Amrita Bdzar Patrika, a native
India paper, furnishes the following
account OF the death Of Sir Jung Bahia
door, and the funeral ceremony which
followed: "The 25th of February being
Hoolee Day {Govind Dwadasee), he
went to battle at Bagonuttee he entered
the river before sunrise for that purpose
in the highest spirits, and after perform
ing his additions he sat on the bank to
perform poojah. Soon after he was no.
ticed to be motionless. On his followers
approaching him they found that life
was extinct. An express was sent
to the capital, and orders arrived
to postpone the funeral rites to
March /. The three principal Ra-
nees, his brother and son. arrived,
and the RANGES expressed their desire
to sacrifice themselves. The brother
tried to dissuade them, but he failed,
and the funeral pyre was prepared with
sandal-wood, rosin and a large quantity
Of ghee. When the arrangements had
been made the ladies bathed. performed
pooiah, and made presents to the Brah-
Minis. The next step was they took
measures for the government OF the
country and to maintain peace; then
general directions were given to the
brother-in-law. Their last act was te
release some prisoners. They then
entered the funeral pyre quite uncon
cernedly. muttering prayers. The
corpse was then laid on its back, and the
eldest Rance took his head in her lal
and the two others took the feet. They
were then surrounded by odorous com
bustibles, and the RANGES gazed upor
