TOM ANDERSON WINS
HAYES with the Mask OF.

The appointment of Tom Andcr-
son to be General Appraiser in the
New Orleans Custom house, rs an
honest measure will find few if any
supporters, and as 4 conciliatory
measure to the South IS likely to pro-
ducc the fruit not supposed, accord
ing to Scripture, to grow on fig trees.
Many Southern journals and some
of them in Louisiana for that matter,
guShcd to a great extent, and quite
unnecessarily over Mr.. Hayes, and
thought they had found the man they
were looking for-the priceless gem
decking the brow of the harlot, rad
icaIism.
That man conll conSort with as
vile political party as the radical par
ty that man could except 4 posi-
ton recking with fraud as Mr. Hayes
did, was always enough to satisfy us
as to Mr.. Hayes character but it
needed some such appointment as
that of Tom Anderson to open the
eyes of those Southern journals to
the fact that this angels galb with
which they were decking tho body OF
the recipient of stolen plumber was
not 4 beitting raimcnt.
We might exhaust the vocabulary
to find deprecatory terms with whic}
to dcnouuce this appointment of Ton
Anderson, and then VIC would fail t
Ito the subject justice.

WELLS AND ANDERSON.
J. I. EHrtp Charged with Strangr
Crime.


The ,soYernor Must Investigate ut
Once.
The New York NUn through It's
Washington Correspondent. Mr.
Gibson, gives rs a startling state
ment with reyall to Louisiana in
general and some New Orleans
Statesmen in particular, which we
publish elsewhere in full.
These statements are received
bv us with the credit to which
they are entitled. Some persons
would say at once; no faith could
be put in them, nor 10 We take
in the whole. 1t has been our
fortune to read copies OF those
celebrated "aYrccmcnt docu-
mcnts,r and we can say that there
is nothing in them, either dis
graceful, or that hints towards a
bargain. But this Sm report
contains points and differences
from which We, in Louisiana,
stunned with conflicting and dis
graceful rumorS, can draw strong
conclusions.
Wells and Anderson are the
main characters in the drama OF
WOnlsiana relieved" and it seems
those sons whom she was childish
and confi,ling enough to think
acted in her behalf from pure pat
riotism and sincere love, are not
only engaged in attempting to
save these worthless from the just
operation of the laws they have
outraged and violated, but to
also place them in such position
that they may be a power to work
harm to free institutions in future
as in the past.
\ person high in the confidence
of the Governor of this Common
wealth is charged with stating
publicly in Washington, at least,
it is said he stated it to the Pres
ident who is a public servant, that
q conspiracy has been entered
into to thwart the execution OF
law BY spiritlng away witnesses
in q great case involving gigantic
issues for the future Of our State
and whole country.

let Governor Nichols at once
investigate these charges, and il
there is even a shadow of thcil
truth, he must, in order to pre-
serve his own honor, degrade L
\. Burke from the high Office he
holds, and dismiss him from con
tidential cOuMsels.
The Governor, holding his OWL
honor, the honor and the virtue Of
this State in his Keeping, cannot
stop short OF what We demand
1t would be treason to virtue; il
would and will damn him fOrevc,
in the eyes Of respectable men tc
do less. We consider the mo
ment lras come for decisive action
in the matter Of furnishing crimi

nails as Wells and Anderson, i'll

opportunity to act, and he must
profit by it, or else he must as
