FRANCES TROUBLES.

The retrograde tendencies Of MacMa-
hon are strongly manifested in the Due
de Broglie's recent order to the pro-
cureurs Of the French provinces. This
order is characteristic of the Due de
Broglie, who has always been the
enemy Of republicanism, and is ever
ready at hand to take charge and d.
rection of a government bent on the
restoration Of monarchy or Imperialism.
The order Of the DUO in reference to
the enforcement law for "the protection
of morality. religion, property. and par
ticularly Of that against the attacks Of
licentious press" is bold challenge
to the Republican party Of France. It
has been accepted and the fight has
opened, and promises to be one Of the
most exciting character. That the Re-
publican party does not mean to repeat
the errors of the past by placing inself
on too ultra and extreme grounds is in
Dictated by the invitation of the octo-
genarian statesman, Theirs, to accept
the leadership of the Republican party.
At the last accounts the old statesman
was as full of life, vigor and activity as
when he conducted France through her
Germanic and Communistic troubles.
When he places himself at the head of
a party in France in opposition to
government and ministry, or revolu-
ton or coup d'etat, two results may be
calculated on: the defeat of the minis
try and the maintenance of the Re-
public.

within sight of the green and glittering
spires and domes of the great city by
the Dardanelles, probably we shall hear
of intense excitement in Threadneedle
street, London, and OF much stir and
hustle at Portsmouth, Plymouth, Green

and naval preparations in Great
Britain.

tant duties OF his position, and the ad-
ministration of the financial affairs OF
the State is considerably embarrassed.
Proceedings we're promptly taken by
the Attorney General to compel the
delivery and return Of It's archives to
the Office OF the Auditor. A mandamus
was issued by one OF our District Courts
against Johnson; but, as soon as he was
served Herewith, his attorneys, John
Ray and Hugh J. Campbell, filed suit
in the United States Circuit Court, set
ting up title to the Office Of Auditor and
claiming jurisdiction for the United
States, on the ground Of the exclusion
of votes by reason Of race, color or pre-
vious condition, in violation of the con-
stitutional amendment and Of the act
Of Congress passed Hereunder.
And then, on return to the mandamus
from the State court, he claimed q
transfer and removal of the case to the
United States Court, which demand was
rejected and the mandamus made Pc
remptory. johnson appealed to our
Supreme Court. This court recently
confirmed the first judgment, but a writ
OF error to the United States Supreme
Court having issued on said judgment,
an unavailing motion was made by the
Attorney General to have the man
damus enforced without regard to the
writ Of error, which only related to the
application Of johnson for transfer OF
his claim to the office.
Our Supreme Court. however, could
not grant this motion, and the case has
passed beyond the control of the State
court and must abide the decision Of
the Supreme Court Of the United States,
where it cannot be reached for perhaps
several months or years. Thus, by the
criminal and revolutionary conduct and
conspiracy of former State officer, and
through purely technical device and
trick, one Of our constitutional officers
become seriously hampered in the dis
charge OF the duties OF his Office.
Can it be possible that the legal reme
dies for this great wrong to the State
are exhausted by these proceedings. and
that an individual can set at defiance
the whole authority of the State and
people upon 80 flimsy and fiagrantly
dishonest plea and dodge? Is there
no process of the criminal law which
can reach the perpetrator of such
wrong -anG not only him, but others
whose names have been brought out by
the Investigations Of the committee Of
the Legislature, now in session, as impli-
Gated in gross Irregularities and illegal
tiles in the administration of the office
whose archives have been secreted and
are withheld from examination ?

Butler consoles Pitkin In his distress
by reminding him that his official life is
required as sacrifice on the altar of his
country, and refers to Abraham's readi-
ness to immediate Isaac in obedience to
the divine command, whereat the youth
full victim made no unreasonable or
superfiuous cutlery. There is classical
precedent, likewise which Butler
strangely overlooks. There was Iphi-
genia who was offered up as sacrifice
by her father, Agamemnon, in order to
propitiate the deities and to secure favor
able breezes on his voyage to Ilium. So
Hayes demands the sacrifice Of Pitkin
that Jack Wharton may be enabled to
raise the wind. and make safe and Sc
cure harbor In the Marshal's office. To
which Pitkin certainly ought to respond
with resignation equal to that Of the
Greek girl-if he has any love for his
country and his great father at Wash
ington.

SMALL CURRENCY.

No circumstance strikes the Northern
and Western visitors to this city as go
inexplicable as the fact that the FIVE
cent nickle is the smallest currency in
use here. They regard this fact as one
Of the many peculiarities OF life in New
Orleans which give to the Crescent City
the aspect of foreign town in the eyes
of most Americans, and frequently refer
to it as an illustration of the un-
progressive spirit of this COM
munity. And they are right.
1t is pitiable sight to witness COM
munity which claims to be civilized
clinging with ignorant and bigoted
tenacity to ancient traditions Of an un-
enlightened past, which retard its pros
perity and advancement. The chief
sufferers from this absurd custom are
the poorer classes. They constitute
vast majority of the population and,
while individually they may not be in
huential in shaping governmental meas
ures, they can always, by a judicious
and intelligent use of the voting fran
chise, compel compliance with their
reasonable demands. Hence we are
surprised that movement has not long
since been set on foot by the masses Of
the people Of this community to effect
the introduction here of the small cur
renty in use in other parts Of the
country.
It is safe to say that in almost every
instance where q poor man purchases
five or ten cents nominal worth Of any
commodity he sustains loss of some
thing like twenty-fiv per cent, or more,
through the unfairness and greed of
small dealers. who take advantage Of
the absence Of smaller circulating
medium than the nickel. Consider,
then, what must be the aggregate loss
suffer- by the great body Of the people
by sues unfairness, and by their en-
forced payment OF five and ten cents
when, say, three or eight cents worth of
given commodity would satisfy their
wants. We think it is a duty which
our moneyed institutions owe to the
public to carry out the suggestions con-
tanned in the communication Of ''Deci-
mal," which we publish elsewhere, and
we hope that they will not show them
selves to be too much affected by the
dry-rot of old fogyism to do it.

A DAsTARDLY CONSPIRACY.

The decision Of our Supreme Court IL
the case of Jumel va. Johnson, though
doubtless In strict accord with the tech.
nical requirements Of law, involves a
vexatious interference with the admin
istration Of the government Of this State.
johnson was the Auditor under the
late administration, to whom Mr.. Jumel
succeeds by the same title by which all
the other Offices Of the State are held.
The Auditor Of the State is the custo-
dian of all the financial archives of the
State. He keeps the tax and assess
ment rolls, the accounts Of all the
tax collectors and OF all the financial
and disbursing officers, the lists of
all the delinquent taxes and the
records Of all the bonds and liza
bilities Of the State; in fact. he is
charged with the preservation of the
evidence of every payment and settle
ment with the creditors or debtors OF
the State.
In order to obstruct the administra-
ton Of the States finances, and doubt
less to prevent the exposure and prose-
cution of the numberless frauds which
have been covered up in that depart
ment, Johnson, no doubt instigated
thereto by Kellogg, Of whom it has al
ready been proved by the Investigating
committee that johnson was the supple
tool and instrument. refused to deliver
the archives and records of his Office to
his successor. All the other State off,
GERS had surrendered their archives.
Mr.. Jumel took possession Of the
office of the Auditor and was compelled
to employ mechanics to force open the
iron safe, which, however, was found
empty. All the important and valuable
books of the office had been rem owed
and secreted, and, to give still darker
hue to the transaction, the chief deputy
Of the Auditor, whose testimony might
aid in recovering the records or supply
ing the evidence which they contain,
had mysteriously disappeared from the
on Europeanstour.
In this condition Of his Office Mr..
Jumel finds himself estopped from the
performance Of some Of the most inpor-

Butler, in his spirit Of universal ma.
liciousness, calls on Pitkin to initiate
the patience and self-sacrificing spirit
OF Isaac, when his venerable parent
Abraham prepared to sacrifice his loved
son, the child of his old age, and not to
kick or squirm when his Office is taken
away and given to one who "wore the
gray" when you stood in "the blue"
Buffers wit and malice do not need
the slightest imaginable substratum Of
fact. And this allusion to the military
services Of Pitkin Is striking illustra-
tion OF his proverbial inaccuracy. There
are hundreds OF living witnesses who
can testify to the fine appearance Mar
shall Pitkin presented in a superb gray
uniform in the Confederate camp at
Corinth and on the stricken field of
Shiloh, and perhaps there may be an
equal number who have seen him
equally resplendent in the blue. He
wriggled out of both uniforms, ac-
cording to Warmoth, by an in
genious device in the use of soft
soap, so as to produce a genuine
case Of foaming at the mouth epilepsy.
Now, as the service Of Pitkin in gray
or blue was so BRET and feeting, it will
be very difficult to determine at what
period he and Col. Jack Wharton an
tagonized their colors. This difficulty is
increased by the fact communicated to us
by the commander Of the brigade in
which Col. Jack served. that he never
owned a coat Of any color during the
war, being content with red flannel
shirt and buckskin pants, with which
he started from Western Texas, and in
which he surrendered at Vicksburg at
the close OF the war.
We think, however, 1t is highly proba-
BILE that Col. Jack Wharton served
through the war, and must, therefore,
have metaphorically worn the gray,
whilst Pitkin pretends, we presume,
metaphorically to have worn the blue.
but as Pitkin appeared at Chicago in
1864 and made speech denouncing the
war, we hardly think him qualified for
the sublime sacrifice which Butler de-
mands that he should make in the
style OF the pious and submissive Isaac.
1t is too great draft upon the pa
triotism of our saponacsous and ambro-
sial Marshal to require him to play the
heroic parts OF Iphigenia, of Codrus,
of Curtius, and the other immortals who
were offered up to appease the wrath of
the malignant deities who threatened
the liberties and the lives Of their coun-
try and people. ]
