Messrs. Levy, Ellis and Gibson. OF
our Congressional delegation, arrived In
the city from Washington Monday.
Gen. Gibson and Col. Levy are both
quite unwell. Mr.. Ellis is in vigorous
health, but we have not yet had the
pleasure Of meeting him.
These gentlemen have done noble
work for the State, and they deserve
the grateful thanks Of the people OF
every portion of it. Their duties have
been arduous and difficult, and we can
we'll appreciate their sense Of the heavy
responsibility which rested upon them
when the issue Of the presidential
count and the fate of Louisiana hung
literally upon their action. They acted
courageously and wisely, and their con-
stituencies fully and cordially indorse
their course.
Col. Levy's Congressional labors closed
with the recent session ofCongress, and,
though his District will be ably repre-
sented in the next Congress by Judge
Elan, we cannot but express the regret
that his large abilities are to be with
drawn from field In which they were
conspicuously exercised for the honor
and interest OF Louisiana.
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1877-04-04

The New York Herald is, in some re-
spects, the best reflector of public opin-
ion to be found In the journalistic world
of this country. No other paper has so
happy o knack at catching the drift Of
current events and rejecting the views
and wishes of the vast majority Of the
people who care nothing for sentiment
or technical right, but pride themselves
on being, above all things. practical
and anxious to secure the good Of the
greatest number. even at the expense of
abstract justice. The Herald often has
hobbies and rides them to death, but it
rarely INDUCES in the luxury OF politi-
cal theories or principles; 1t searches
for and gives expression to the views OF
those who create that "public opinion"
which is mightier than any mere sta
tute, and without the support of which
no law can stand very long. For this
reason, and because it is known to
represent the views and ideas Of
no party or clique, men Of all
parties are accustomed to look to its col
umns for an indication Of the effect pro-
duced upon the average mind of the
country by any act or passing event OF
national interest, and its conclusions are
almost universally found to be correct.
We are glad, therefore, to see that 1t
takes the same view with regard to the
mission OF Mr.. Hayes Commissions to
Louisiana which we have always taken,
namely, that they may do some good II
they will confine themselves to investi-
eating and reporting to the country at
large the actual facts concerning the
political situation in this State, but that,
If they attempt to make any bargains,
or effect any compromise, or assume in
any way to exercise authority and con-
troll over the Nichols government or
the action of our Legislature, they will
make themselves ridiculous and their
mission fiasco. The Herald does not
admit the possibility OF any other settle
ment of the Louisiana question that the
complete and permanent establishment
of the Nichols government, and therein
it certainly reflects the public opinion OF
the country.

agriculture into more valuable forms,
like the manufacture OF raw cotton into
yarns and cloths, and Of coarse sugar
into refined sugar.
The present cheap rates Of labor and
the large number OF unemployed per-
sons In our city offer inducements to
this sort of enterprise greater than were
ever before presented. The success OF
Mr.. Ed. Richardson with his mills at
Wesson, Miss, has demonstrated the
practicability and profitableness Of this
enterprise, and we hope that the pur-
chasers Of the Louisiana Cotton Factory
will further illustrate the value and sue
cess thereof, by setting the factory in
the Third District, in active operation.

Friday next is the memorial day set
apart for the decoration Of the graves OF
our Confederate dead, but it SO happens
that the grand citizens mass meeting
has been fixed for the same date. The
patriotic members of the Ladies' Ben

ouence decided upon anticipating the
mournful anniversary by day, so as
not to interfere with the grand demon
stration in favor OF our own Nichols.

The purpose of this people is not re-

other classes Of the population, the
blessings OF free, stable and honest

These measures were guaranteed In
the Democratic platform at Baton
Rouge; Nichols and Wiltz and all the
officers OF the Nichols government are
pledged to them. But there is stronger
guarantee OF their enforcement than the
platform OF any political party or the
pledges of political candidates. how
ever high, and that guarantee Is the
fact that upon their enforcement de-
