DESERTED To THE RA DICALs. The
Texas delegation in the Lower House of
Congress on the vote to reduce the army,
on Saturday went over to the Radicals
and voted against the Democrats. And
thus the hope for saving about six mil
lions of dollars was extinguished.-
There never was more glaring exhi-
bition of want of patriotism and party
fealty. The same delegation, no doubt,
are now ready to unite with the Radicals
for any measure which has government
spoils for Texas connected with 1t. The
army that is to be kept on the Rio Grande
will cause the expenditure of several
millions in that direction, and we believe
it was the desire for this and not the feal
of the Mexican Indians that induced the
desertion of the Texas delegation. They
have by this act advertised themselves fol
sale whenever the Texas Pacific Railroad
bill is presented.

HARPERS MAGAZINE FOR DECEM
BER, 1871

Harper's Magazine for Decem ber fully
maintains the leading position which this
periodical holds, both as to literary and ar
tistic excellence. Readers will first of all
turn TO Longfellow's poem, "Keramo os,
beautifully illustrated by Abbey and
Fredericks. While the subject of the poem
is one dear to the hearts OF all brio a-brac
hunters, the poet has transcribed its more
obvious features, and given us not only a
poem of marvellous skill in realistic de-
scription, but also an Imaginative work of
the highest order.
The Number opens with Milton's "H ymn
on the Nativity" with seven elective illus
trations by Fredericks.
Mrs. Spoford contributes paper beauti-
fnlly illustrated ,on "Elizab. than and lat r
| English Furniture" 1t is careful study
OF decorative art in England 81 ce the
Renaissance and the authors graceful
style renders 1t as attractive as it is instruc-
tive.
Mr.. William H. Rideing contributes a
paper on the metropolitan Newspaper, =
which will be universally popular. 1t is
embellished by twenty-seven illustrations
including portraits ofprominent New York
: editors.
MANY Leaves and few Grapes" is ar
Italian Christmas story, by Virginia w
; Johnson, with two striking illustrations by
: Abbey. -
This Number is especially rich In fiction

AN EN- CoURAGING REPORT.

The report of the Superintendent of
the Insurance Department upon the COB
dition of the New York Lite Insurance
Company must have beautifully reas-
suring effect upon the commercial COM
munlty wholly beyond the limits of its
membership. In a time of depression
and doubt, and time, too, when the as
sets and securities of financial corpora
tions bear their smallest market value, a
public benefit Is gained from report
which shows that a financial institution
controlling large interests and having
large investments can stand scrutiny so
rigid as that which has been made into
the affairs of this company, and that, in
the words OF the report, Judged by the
hardest test that could be applied" its
net surplus amounts to nearly six mil
lions of dollars. More encouraging still
is the temper of the officers of the insti-
tuition, az shown by the fact that their es-
Inmates of their securities aud of the
value of the real estate upon which they
hold mortgages have been n ade upon sc
conservative basis that they differ scar
cely at all from those of the examining
officers.
The satisfactory results of this investi
cation must tend to increase confidenc'
in the wisdom, prudence and integrity o
the management of New York's grea
financial institutions, of which this is al
example.
The official statement of this substan
tial company appeared in the GAzETT
yesterday.

THE NEW INDEPENDENT PATTY

THE NEW INDEPENDENT PARTY
The negro is becoming tired of being
political slave to the Radical corruption
lists and has formally withdrawn from
that party and set up for himself. The
head of the organization is in Washing
ton, and fiaunts the terrible name of the
'Invincibles." All that is now needed
is skillful leader, who understand how
TO dispose of votes, at the highest sue
cessful price, in official patronage for
few and a large subsidy for the agents
who make the transfer, and the negro Or
ganization is ready to vote accordingly.
But it must be understood for the future
he does not vote on trust. The cash is
what is needed. But the negro vote is
for sale, nevertheless. Well, we in Del
aware do not need to buy; and it is hard
ly likely the Radicals will bid very high,
so long as they have SO little prospect of
success. 81 ... .l f,, Iov.
The negro vote is up for sale, however,
at very low price, if we credit the Phila-
delphia North american, Bulletin or
Telegraph. The two former accuse the
negro of ingratitude for deserving their
friends in the late election in that city,
and the latter says ....'. -.
"By the way, there is really an enga-
ging frankness in the suggestion that a
new party shall be organized for the ex-
press purpose Of securing offices with
good salaries attached for certain individ-
uals, which ia entitled to a certain amount
of admiration. To be sure, white men
for long time have been running their
parties pretty much on principles of self
interest, but they never acknowledge the
fact If they can help themselves. The
colored citizen, however, knows what he
wants, and is not afraid to ask for it,
There is no foolishness about him. Il
his merits are recognized, he will keeE
quiet but if they are not, he purposes
TO see what can be done about it, even tC
the extent of kicking up the biggest kline
of a row. To show that he really meani
business he names his party the invinci
bles, which is fair warning to all whitt
politicians who object to giving the col
ored brethren liberal share of the spoils
to get out of the way if they don't wan

IT is said that the conviction of Smalls
by the South Carolina State Court is
likely to result in a serious conflict be-
tween State and Federal jurisdiction. 1t
will be remembered that during Smalls'
trial motion was made to transfer his
case to the United States Court under
the Judiciary act. This was declined by
the State Court, thus preventing the Uni
ted States Court from acting in the affair.
The refusal of the State Court to permit
this removal will be tried, in all proba-
bility, by Judge Bond. at the approaching
term of his Court in Columbia, during
the next ten days. Upon the production
of Smalls, on hdbeds corpus, from the
jail, the entire question of the validity OF
his sentence and the right of the Court to
pass it, will be opened before Juege
Bond, whose extra.judicial and political
sympathies were abunIantly shown las
December in ordering the release of the
Hayes electors when confined for con
tempt Of the Supreme Court in Soutl
Carolina.
The case is more interesting in Della
ware, since in this county the Stat
Court refused to transfer some election
cases to The United States Court 70

THE Press is simple enough to call
Senator Sharon to account for not attend
ing the sessions of the Senate, when the
Republican majority is bat nominal in
that body. Mr.. Sharon bought his place
in the Senate, paid his cash for It like
man, and he regards il as part of hls AS
sets to draw upon for pleasure Or profi',
just as he regards his mining stocks which
keep him at the San Francisco Exchange
to gamble i'll them. When the State
elects Senator he owes service to the
Stale ; when party crowds a man IN
to the Senate he owes service to the par
ty, but when Senatorship is hidden for
and taken by contract, the holder may
deem 1t his own to enjoy or neglect, AS
may sHit his humor. True, it's not a
very high Standard of public morals or
sta esmanship, but it's the fa-hIon of the
day in Pennsylvania and Nevada, aud
what are we going to do about 1t p
Times.

If KELLoGG is admitted to seat in
the Senate he will be the representative
from some other State, but not from
Louisiana, where he could not receive
enough honest votes to elect him a con-
stable. In such case some State will have
three votes, while Louisiana will remain
without any until the Radical Senators
see proper to cease making votes to hold
a majority in that body.

PASSAGE OF THE ARMY BILL.

- Yesterday the army bin passed the
House of Representatives, with the amend
ment providing for reduction Of the
force to 10000 men. and requiring that
four regiments of cavalry shall be posted
on the Rio Grande. These restrictions
were favored by 1873 Democrats, and op-
posed by 124 Republicans and 8 Texan
Democrats.

ton, the partisan Commission, has
fallen with q vengeance and the man
gled and CORY head Of Florida, poor,
stricken Florida, the orange grove of
the South, has dropped in the morgue
of new tangled and newborn Radi
salism. We have not the heart to
dilate on this monstrous cheat, un-
equalled by that of the Louisiana
Returning Board. Suffice it to say
the damnable deed has been done,
Hayes and Wheeler are counted her
four electoral votes, and the linger
ing echo of this fresh infamy palsies
us as we think of poor Louisiana,
whose turn next comes alphabetical
ly, and we fear practically. Our
chances for the right are decidedly
blue, but not desperate, and the end
is not yet.

VERNON.

Rapides' daughter and nearest
neighbor, good and sound democratic
Vernon, is just about now raising
particular HI as the bright arant
courier of the herculean frauds and
radical figure lifting of the past year.
We have no idea at this late hour Of
our new defrauding by the neac
Counting Board at Washington, that
any comments of the Democrat can
avail much, but as we are determined
to die hard and game, we are bound
to place on record in proper shape
and light, our nearest home fraud
and cheat satisfaction.
One Of the clerks of the Keno
Wells Board, Littlefeld, unmasked
the bottom truth, and plainly told us
that three of the polls Nos. l, 3 and
7 were thrown out by Wells IN order
"to make the figures agree" and then
to tally this, affidavits were manufac-
tured and made against these polls,
Swearing to intimidation and VIC
lence Of colored voters
Now we affirm, and know that this
affirmation is the truth, the whole
truth, that there are but CT colored
voters in Vernon, and that Of these
&C voted one single colored voter
being sick, did not 60 to the polls.
In the perjury line, no less than three
afidavits were produced and hatched
against these three polls thrown out
by Wells. Affidavit No. l was TIL
ter made by one Brown, a very sus-
picious name, at Poll No. l, swear
ing that 1852 negroes were refused the
right Of voting; No. 2 was at Poll 3,
made by an unknown perurer, who
swore that 81 negroes were refused
the right to vote, and to cap the eli
max of perjury patent affidavit-ma-
ker, who even did not pretend to live
in Vernon, but claimed to be a ma
tive and citizen Of Texas, swore
''pineblank'' to having seen q ne
groes rejected. This sums up a
grand total Of 266 negro voters who
were refused the right TO vote. So
it will be perceived by this plain
statement as sworn to by Littlefeld,
that this sums up 1919 more than ali
the colored men entitled to vote by
Kellogg's registration, 164 more than
were entitled to vote by Kellogg's
census, and certainly more than all
the negroes in Vernon parish, men,
women and children.

DEAR S1R-My wife has been using
daily your Bitters, and I am glad to
say she has been greatly benefited.
She is now stronger and in better
general health than she has been for
years, and I feel certain that her pre-
sent good health is the result OF
using few bottles Of the HOME BIT
TIERS. She joins me in thanking you
for your kindness. My wife has i'm.
proved so much that she does not
need the Bitters now, but thinks she
will send for few bottles when cold
weather sets in. I commenced this
letter at the request ola friend great
ly suffering from bronchial affection,
which has brought on general weak.

half dozen bottles. Send them to
