Louisiana Before the Commission.

In 1872 MCENERY was duly elected Gov
ernor of Louisiana over KELLOGG by large
majority. This fact was never disputed by
any honest man who examined the ease.
Nevertheless, the Returning Board OF the
State counted in KELLOGG by fraud, and
GRANT recognized him ~ Governor, and up
held the usurpcr with the sword. Two years
afterward n committee of Congress, n ma
jority of whom were Republicans, stigma
TIED this Returning Board as dishonest and
unworthy of confidence; but 10y the inter-
vention of WILLIAM a. WHEELER, who was
one OF the committee, n compromise was i'm
posed upon the powerless people Of Louisi-
ana, whereby KELLOGG was left in the Gov
Crnors ONCE.
Last fall the TILDrN and HENDHIckr cleo
TORS were chosen in Louisiana by majority
OF about 5000. Notwithstanding this de-
cisivc verdict of the people, the Returning
Board Of that State, 10y a series Of knavsh
md fraudulent practices that would have
made the most dopravcd Of Boss TwEED's
ballot box suffers blush, threw out legal
votes enough to count in the HAYES and
WHEELER electors 10y three or four thousand
majority. This being done, KELLOGG, the
usurpng Governor, commissioned these
bogus electors, who, in due time, assumed
10 cast the eight votes Of Louisiana for
HAYES and WHEELER, and then sent an au-
thenticatcd certificate Of that transaction
10 FERRY, the President of the Senate, 10 be
counted by him in order to carry in the Re-
publican candidates.
No Intelligent person doubts tho truth OF
these statements. The main facts have not
only been proved this winter before commit
tees Of Congress, hut the testimony tends
strongly t. show that the Returning Board
were bribcl to count in the Republican
electors.
Ere long the Louisiana case will come he
fore the Electoral Commission. A motion
will doubtless be- made 10 inquire into the
real facts pertaining 20 the election i'm that
State for the simple purpose ~ a-ccrtaining
whether majority Of its pooplc voted for
TILDEN and HENDRICKS, as every iitolli-
gent man ia the country knows they did, or
for HAYES and WHEELER, a. KELLOGG, the
usurping Governor, and WELLS and the
other pcrlurol soouudrcls Of the Retu.ling
Board, say they did.
The whole nation will read and reflect
upon this motion, aud will then listen with
intense interest - the votes thereon Of
NATHAN CLIFFORD, SAMUEL L. MILLER.
STEPHEN J. FIELD, WILLIAM STEoSG, and
JOSEPH p. BRADLEY, Associate Justices oil
the supreme Court and will watch to sea if
any and which Of these jurists join in m
order directing Congress 10 count the eight
votes oil Louisiana for HAYES and WHEELER.

There Is complaint that the navy of France
has been allowed to run ntodcoay under the
republic. 1t is not what it was during the
empire Of LOUIS NAPOLEON, and II now bears
no sort Of comparison 10 the navy OF Eng
land, with which the Emperor tried hard to
compete, and which he did succeed in rival
ling up TO the timo Of the FIanco-German
war.
Marshal MAcMAHoNs Government is
right in stopping any naval competition
with England. The experience OF the war
with Germany proved that the fleets on
which the Emperor had lavishnl so much
attention and IN which he iolt 50 much
pride wore prd tlcauy u,ol'.s. This result
surprised no ono who had studied the me-
chanlcs of modern naval warfare 1t was
evident that the day had gone 10y when any
important result cJuld be reached by
feet meeting in mil-uooan and firing away
at each other. The great nayies were built
with sionial reference to Fighting In line ~
battle. j. "as their one function and such
hghtin8 is uuw Obsolete. Moreover, the
strongest 'roucitls Possessed by France
were hept out ~ the German halbors by the
mere Mon'i4n Of torrciors planted IA their
wator5. A hencoop aApat Is almost enough

dread Of torpcdocs IN the naval mind.

Canal Tolls.

We arc told in some quarters that n
further reduction OF canal tolls will amount
to an additional tax on the people of this
State, of which additional tax this city alone
would he called on TO pay one-half. While
canallcrs, boatmen, forwarders. and all per-
sons directly interested or engaged in hand
ling grain, urge the adoption of lower tolls
os commercial necessity If New York is to
retain her fair share Of Western trade, we
are told, per contra, that the parties princi-
pally benefited by any further reduction
would be Western producers and European
consumers.
An element not sufficiently dwclt upon in
the discussion ofthis question is the reckless
extravaganza and Migrant dishonesty which
have characterized tho management Of tho
canals. The tolls, indirectly diverted from
their legitimate purposes, have gone to en-
rich corrupt officials and dishonest contract
prs. Outside the comparatively small circle
Of boatmcn and forwardcrs, who believe
that whatever the State abandons will fall
TO their share, the great mass Of the people
apprcheud that ono-half, at least, Of tolls
collected or canal taxes imposed will con-
tinuc to find tho way into the pockets of
political contractors, under the plea OF canal
repairs Gov SEYMOUR, in his admirable
letter TO the canallcrs, shows with great
force and clcarncss the absolute necessity Of
liberal action on the part of the Legislature,
If our canal system is TO continue to fulfil
the purposes for which it was originally in
tended.
Since the consolidation Of railroad COM
panics, and the organization OF through
Western freight lines, the people Of this city
are entirely at the mercy Of any combna-
ton Of the great trunk lines during six
months of the year, or during tho period
when water routes are closed. Three men
SCOrT, Vanderbilt, and GARRErr-can i'm
pose such rates as they deem proper on
freight to and from the West TO the sea-
board. Shall the people of New York,
through short-sghtcd policy, deprive
themselves during the rest OF the year OF
the means of cheapening railway transport
alton, by fixing canal tolls at such rates as
will make it impossible for boatmen TO sue
cessfully compete with railroads and live?
While we do not believe that the general
Government would accept the surrender of
the Erie Canal, making 1t a great national
artery OF communication connecting the
lakes with the rivers and the sea, as was
suggested at the Cooper Institute meeting
we believe any action Of the Legislature
looking toward free tolls would accomplish
the same result Failing this measure Of
relief, il is imperative that the canal au-
thoritcs should be clothed with sufficient
discretion 90 make. themselves. such rcduc-
tions In tolls as will enable them to meet
any emergencies in the way Of new rail-
road war. which may arise during the
coming season.
