The nomination of Gov. CASTOR by
the Democrats of Massachusetts, was
very wise thing. He made most &C.
ceptable executive four years ago, and
he might have been one now had he not
been set aside for Mr.. Adams, a favorite
American candidate, but one who ap-
pears to be stronger every where else
than he is in Massachusetts. Gov. Cas-
ton, on the contrary, is extremely popu-
lar. personally, at home, while his ad-
ministration Of his Office when Govern
or of the State was so wise and conser-
vative as to make him many friends
outside of the party.
It is very probable that the Republi-
cans will put up in opposion to him his
old antagonist, Gov. Rice, who is quite
as unpopular, personalities Gov CASTOR
is liked, and whom he defeated before
by 1000 majority, though the rest Of the
Republican ticket was elected by almost
double that majority.

Mr.. Henry G. Hester, secretary of the
New Orleans Cotton Exchange, sends
us copy Of a memorial to Congress,
praying for an appropriation to repair
the Mississippi levees. The memorial
will be found in the counting-room of
the DEMOCRAT, and in all the public
places in the city. We trust that every
citizen Of New Orleans will sign it. The
restoration of the Mississippi leyees is
not work of local Importance; it
touches the interest Of every section of
the Union and Of every citizen of the
United States. A work Of more national
Importance could not be devised. The
region of country protected by the
levees Is the richest and most produc-
tive in the United States, being the
sugar and chief cotton area of the coun-
try. Thoroughly protected it would add
millions to the wealth and trade Of the
Union.
We invite our friends to visit the
countipg-room of the DEMOCRAT and
sign the memorial.

We were pleased to greet in our sane
tum last night our friend Hon. Jos. Ell.
Acklen, member Of Congress elect from
the Fourth District, who has just re-
turned from summer sojourn in the
East. Mr.. Acklen talked with num-
Der Of members Of Congress and promi-
nent politicians during his trip, and ex-
presses the opinion that unless Mr..
Randall is nominated for Speaker on
the first BALLOT, he will be defeated
He has no reserved force and will
develop his whole strength on the first
vote. The chances of Hon. Milton Say
lor, Of Ohio. Mr.. Acklen believes, are
excellent. Mr.. Blackburn is regarded
as toe, bitter partisan to win the prize.
Cox has good deal Of strength but not
enough to win. A triangular contest
between Randall, Cox and Saylor .may
result in the election Of dark horse.
Our young friend looks as though his
trip had materially benefited him, and
he is very confident of obtaining his
seat in Congress, which Is contested by
one Darrall.

FEROOIOUS OOMBATANTS.

Those accustomed to respect the rules
of civilized warfare can have very little
conception of the incorporating
animosities which animate the Russians
and Turks, or more properly the Moslem
and Christians. Centuries of war, with
the reciprocal slavery Of captive prison
ers, continued contempt and persecu-
ton, have so exasperated these enemies
that compromise or Intervention are i'm
possible, and nothing but absolute de-
feat and exhaustion can arrest the re-
sistance Of either. To give some idea
of the barbarous nature Of this conflict,
we give the following account Of the
capture of Ismail from the "Histoire
de la Revolution Franchise" by NJ.
Louis Blanc:
The town of Ismail had been always
considered as the key Of the lower
Danube. Suwarrow invested this place,
and on the 22d December, 1880, at 5
o'clock in the morning, to reduce it to
ruin, opened upon it with the most for
midable artillery that had been then ever
known. In the midst of the consterna-
ton which this terrible bombardmen5
spread throughout the town, and while
the Cossack rushed towards the ram
parts on the side next the river. the
order was given for a general assault.
Brothers." said Suwarrow to those
around him, with an ominous famili-
arity, 'No quarter Remember every
where no quarter! Provisions are dearr p
The Turks displayed an intrepidtty
equal to the wrath Of their enemies

THE ORLEANS DEMOCRAT THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 90

Eight times were the Russians repulsed
and overthrow In rivers Of blood.
Their loss was 80 enormous that the
continuation Of the attack was, at one
time, deemed impossible. Transported
with rage, Suwarrow dismounted his
cavalry and forced them to the assault
He himself snatched standard from
the hands of the bearer and scaled the
walls and planted the flag upon Turk
ish battery. The assailants redoubled
their vigor and very soon furious body
OF soldiers penetrated through every
part Of the city. Then followed spec
tacle as deplorable as those which Nj
mantia and Saragossa have left to his
tory.
Inspired bya sublime despair, and i'm
patient to die the Turks rushed forward
in crowds, either upon the Russian bay
onets or into the waves OF the Danube.
None asked quarter Of the victors, whose
naughty disdain increased their cruelty.
The Russians carried the assault at six
o'clock In the evening, and they con-
tinued the carnage all night. When the
sun rose it displayed scene of destruc-
ton whose horror could not have been
imagined during the darkness. except by
the explosion Of the artillery, the cries
of the dying, the lamentation of women
and children.
or the $4,000 Turks who had defended
Ismail. all persisted from the first To
the last. The number of dead, COM
prising the inhabitants, without regard
to sex, age or condition, amounted to
81, 900. The Governor of Ismail was
found covered with mound Of dead
and riddled with wounds. Three thou
sand Circassian women, belonging to the
harems, were on their way to the
Danube to escape violation by the Cos
sacks, when Col. Coffey, an English
gentleman in the service of Russia, in
terposed and saved them.

ton of fresh and more violent out
breaks. And all these are but
the results of the first stage OF
Capitalization. What then may we ex-
pect should the fearful monstrosity
which Gould and Scott and their CO.
adiutors are nursing attain it's full
growth and power
1t seems to us, discarding all senti-
mentalism and patriotism, that men
who have material interests in this
country should promptly discontenance
these Capitalization schemes and de-
mand that the original character Of the
government be restored.

That is a pleasing s1gges ton Of the
commissioners appointed to wind up

that the aepositors who have been
robbed resolve themselves into lobby
to secure from Congress an act author
ing the purchase by the government of
the bank building. This building,
which cost originally twice what it was
worth, was put up at auction not long
ago, and Withdrawn because the price
asked was not bid; but these commits
sioners see no objection to the govern
ment paying the sum they have fixed
upon. By the way, why are not the
funds on hand repaid to the swindled
depositors?

AN ERA OF Fra I'D.

After the battle is over a few stray shot
are heard. For eight years the field ha,
been held by cohorts of corruptionists
now, as the end of General Grants ad.
ministration approaches, the large body
of official banditti retres and a few
stragglers bring up the rear. The las
of these is clerk in the office of the Firs
Auditor, who was yesterday arrested or
the charge of swindling registered bond
holders of unclaimed interest. Certain
generic crimes, like certain contagious
diseases, seem to have their times and
seasons, and to revel in the luxury ofun.
restrained indulgence. The human
frailty which has been the scourge OF
this country since General Grant was
elected to the Presidency is an appetite
for fraud. By fraud we mean breach
of public trust and an invasion of the
public treasury.
We have had exhibitions of official
depravity running through a series OF
years and enlisting men of all degrees.
No department of the Government-ex-
ecutive, judicial or legislative-has es-
capped the blight. Fraud has been so
extensive in its nature that it has fur
nished a baptismal and distinguishing
nomenclature. The Credit Mobilier. !"
whose dean was Oakes Ames, and whose
vicar was Schuyler Colfax; the Pacific
Mail, with the tempted Shoemaker for
its right bower and the tempter King for
its left bower; the whisky Ring, with
Joyce for its center and Mcdonald for its
circumference.
These however were but the seeds of
greater growth, the prophecies of COM
ing revelation. One by one and in union
they sapped the principles of public
honor and private virtue until, having
preyed upon the tangible goods and
chattels of the people, they progressed
to the last degree Of villainy when they
had for the object of their insatiate and
unsatished appetites the unbought and
untransferrable rights of the American
citizen, Fraud on the Bench, fraud in
Congress, fraud in the executive depart
ments, fraud in the outposts on the
frontiers, and fraud in the navy-yards in
the centers of commerce, were fit pro.
logues to the last attempt on the purity
and integrity of self-government, 1t is
needless to say that the Republican par
ty is isfulflling its final mission in attempt
ing to wrest by fraud the Presidency of

receiving a silent support from kindred
spirits of a finer nature, yet, who "do not
care what becomes Of the ship of State,
