There is nothing in the history of the
House of Representatives, disgraceful and
unpatriotic as it has been, more disgrace
full and tyrannical than the Imprisonment
OF Messrs. Wells, Anderson, Casanave
and Kenner. 1t was deed prompted by
party spite against State officers whose
sole offense is that they read their duty in
the laws of Louisiana, and did not neg
lect it for the sake of ''public opinion" as
it is nowadays filtered through Democrat
ic councils. The national cause is indebt-
ed to these four martyrs to principle for
its escape from q disaster which would
have been as dire in its effects as the cleo
ton Of President Buchanan. The inter-
ests of President Hayes in this matter are
complete ~ dwarfed by the magnitude of
the national issues involved. Rather than
betray the country into the hands of the
enemies of 1861, our four heroic men pa
trio tically accepted illegal incarceration
at the ha nds of set of men who abused
their pc wer and made themselves infa-
nous by their useless act of tyranny. 1t
was worse than useless, and the leading
Democrats knew it as we'll at the time as
they did yesterday when they voted to set
the prisoners at liberty. The Whirligig
of time, which still brings in its re-
venges, may yet see the Knots, the Ran
dals, Clymers, Poppletons, and more of
that tribe, with David Dudley Field, I'M
der matches, with Governor Wells or Mr..
Anderson in charge of the deck. Such a
change in the respective fortunes of these
men is not at all improbable, for if there
is one thing certain in American politics
it is that men enjoy the power to dominer
over Others but short time This should
admonish them to treat those who are for
the time being subordinate as though
they might some day be the masters. 1t
will be jolly sight when Field gets into
the stocks with Governor Wells to turn
the screw.

dramatically opposed to every theory on
which President johnson based his most
mistaken and unhappy policy.
The REPUBLICAN wonld seek in no way
to detract from th@ reputation of the
brilliant New Yorker. But, speaking in
the name, and believing it accurately rep
resents the sentiments of the political
party which carried the State of Louis
lana for Hayes and Wheeler, we do not
hesitate to repeat our decided preference
for Counselor Stoughton over all other
probable candidates from the Empire
State.
A native of New York, Mr.. Stoughton
has earned in the State of his nativity a
reputation for learning not less solid than
that enjoyed by his competitor. His
career, though not so brilliant as that of
Mr.. Evsrts, has been more consistent and
less erratic. His abilities are admitted;
his integrity is beyond question. On
more than one occasion, even previous to
his mastery arguments in TIE case of
Florida and Louisiana before the Elec-
toral Commission, he has manifested a
comprehensive grasp of the difficult
problems involved in what is known
as the Southern question. And as
a lawyer, familiar by reason of
long study and practice with the intricate
and conflicting patent laws of the United
States, he would bring to the Cabinet of
President Hayes peculiarly valuable
knowledge, which would probably aid
largely in relieving the people of the
whole country from many oppressive mo-
nopolies and abuses which now prevail.

PRESIDENT HAYES.

History can show no man who has
borne himself throughout all the phases Of
public and private life with more integrity
than the President-elec of the United
States. Throughout the exciting contest
just closed not even Democracy has
thought it prudent to utter SANDER
against his character. During the Con-
gressional attempt to set aside or override
the will of the people, not one word Of
complaint, not one symptom of interfer-
ence has been manifested on the part of
Mr.. Hayes. However true it may be that
the Tilden Democracy has sent money to
Oregon and attempted to buy the vote of
Louisiana, has forced the Electoral Com
mission upon Congress, and then flibus-
tered to nullify its operation, no such i'm
putation can rest upon the Republican
supporters of Mr.. Hayes. Upon q char
acter SO honest and so resolute the De-
mocracy has attempted to fasten a
promise to violate and vitiate the
credentials Of his own election. The
emissaries of the White League have
sought to draw from the casual declara-
tons of the friends of Mr.. Hayes some
assurance that he would confirm their at
tempted capture of our State government
We have no doubt that Mr.. Hayes has
manifested purpose to give TO Louisiana
an official administration entitled to the
confidence Of the whole people. This he
will do from the honesty Of his nature
and from his patriotism. He does not in
tend, so far as bis own appointments or
influence is concerned, to see the Repub-
lican party reproached for any want Of
personal character in its official repre-
sentaiives. Butwe would ask, were Mr.
Hayes as accessible to compromise as
Henry Clay himself, what motive would
he have had to give away the Republicans
in louisiana Have the White League
Democracy accepted his rights2 At the
very moment that Messrs. Burke and
Gibson are said to have telegraphed a
pledge that the claim Of Mr.. Nichols
would be recognized, the Democratic
filibusters were exhausting every device to
defeat the election Of The Republican
candidata.s

sters, nor courage from towards, nor
wise counsel from ignorance. 1t is be-
cause of this principle that the REPUB-
1ICAN has never misled the people, and
has not been mistaken in the results of
political action. We look to the per-
sonal qualities of President Hayes with
entire confidence that he will neither
abandon his principles nor abandon the
men to whom he owes his election to
the violence of the Democracy who have
fought Governor Packard as they have
fought President Hayes.
