OUR COMPLIANT NOOK.

EDIToR REPUBLICAN: My attention was
called yesterday morning shortly after my
arrival in your city TO an article signed
sUnion." Tt should have been dis Union. J
J reply to the article referred 10 because il
seems to indOrse the action Of a portion Of =
q. A. post in my city, which has received
he unqualified denunciatiOn OF every good
and patriotic man In the country. Such Scnti
nacnts, Mr.. Editor, only tend to add fuel tC tic
kTes Of sectional discOrd. which you aud every
ether liberal journal have been laboring &c
smother One thing Is certain. Mr. Editor, the
large majority Of the men on both sides who
aid the fighting are DESTROYS to fIateTnilr
and forget the past. Now, propose that il
"Union" did not have enough blood during
the rebellion, let him take hand with the
Turks or Russians. A UNION SOLDIER.
The Effects of the Tiber.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN; When ! read in yonr
PAPER some days ago that q gentleman had at
tsnpted to drown himself In the Tibcr was
not much surprised. The Tiber, like wine
when II is red. will not bear look ing upon. II
produces feeling that can only lead TO vio-
jence Of some kind. And II is worse now than
ever. II formerly flowed; now II has been
damned up at each street, leaving hon Sc
pond In the intermediate spaces. These ponds
are becoming stagnant and Shiny, aud emit
the odor of pestilencc. II IL Is the intention Of
the Board Of Commissioners to depopulate that
end Of the city they are certainly taking the
right means to do it. II will soon be vacant
psighborhood, and silent, except as the frogs
continue to tell the story Of our wrongs. Fol
Dswing the example Of the gentleman sPOk' n
Il, We will either jump in some day or MI g.
Ass from the vicinity.

Mr.. Marshall VIM, lately acting as
solicitor and correspondent for the
DEMOCRAT in northern Louisiana, died
at the residence Of DR.. w. D. M. Bru-
ton, near Marion, Union parish, last
month, after month s sickness.
Mr.. VIM had been extremely anx-
ious for some time to establish in this
city an agricultural paper, to advocate,
in particular, immigration to this State.
He lacked, however, the means requi-
site to do this, and, in default Of this,
offered to canvass the State for the
DEMOCRAT, and furnish it with agricul-
tural articles on the most interesting
country topics.
While thus engaged he was taken sick,
losing both his hearing and his eye
sight, and becoming as helpless as an
infant. In this condition he remained
for some two weeks, when death at last
released him from his trouble.
Mr.. VIM was a man OF very strong
religious sentiments. He died in ex-
tremely poor circumstances, and de-
pendent on the charity Of friends. He
was quite an authority on all matters

THE WAR In THE EAST.

The progress Of the war flame which
IL fast girdling the Empire OF the
Turks Is producing its legitimate re-
suits OF a menacing agitation and dis
turbance Of the relations Of the great
Powers OF the Old World. All these
Powers are aroused to full compre-
hension OF the danger to the peace
and settled order Of all OF them which
must follow the further advancement OF
the designs OF Russia.
This alarm and excitement are most
vivid and earnest among the free
thinking and free-acting people OF
Great Britain, who never fail to assert
and give effect to popular sentiments
over their rulers. They have not been
disciplined into that tacit submission to
the will and DEGREES Of their dynasties
which characterizes the subjects OF the
other monarchies Of the continent
They will never consent that thei
government shall control, indie
pendently Of the popular will, thu
direction Of its policy and its relations
to foreign powers. As directly, IL no
more directly than in our republic, he
rulers are responsible and subject t
public opinion. Hence the great agita
ton approaching to tumult and Yiolen

We have received a note from Mr..
Cary, general ticket agent Of the Mobile
line, In reference to the article which
appeared in the DEMOCRAT yesterday,
headed "a Sample Railroad Trick" in
which he complains OF our structures
and offers to take the jackson ticket
and cash it. Mr.. Cary also requests us
to make public his offer to perform this
act Of justice, which we hereby very will
lingly do. The promptness, however,
with which the managers Of the Jackson
route righted our wrong places It
beyond our power to avail ourselves Of
the offer OF Mr.. Gary, to do an act OF
simple justice which the agent Of his
line at Nashville gruffly refused
when applied to. It would perhaps be
we'll, IL Mr.. Cary wishes, in the future to
avoid such unpleasant controversies as
this, for him to instill into his agents
and other employees that they hold no
royal patent to commit errors, perpe-
trate wrongs and then reject, with ILL
bred curtness, the petitions of their vic.
Tins for simple justice.

The Administrator OF Commerce has
exercised d wise latitude OF authority In
permitting the dealers to leave their
grain upon the wharves SO long as 1t
does not discommode the handling OF
other freight. The forty eight hour or
dinance Is designed to facilitate not TO
burthen commerce, and the policy OF
Mr., Cayanac In this matter can not
DO said to violate its spirit. This, In
fact, Is one OF those paradoxical cases
where the violation Of the mere text OF
the law Is the strictest observance OF its
real spirit and purport.
The grain trade is Of vast importance
to this city, and everything possible
should be done to foster and build 1t up,
and any line Of action on the part Of
our merchants and authorities which
relieves 1t of charges and facilitates
and cheapens Its transfer must meet
with approval. This, Of course, must
be said of any and all branches OF our
trade; but just now the grain interest Ia
more especially involved and offers an
opportunity for the exercise Of discre.
ton and liberality on the part OF the
authorities.

The passage OF the U. s. steamer Ply

The passage Of the U. s. steamer Ply
mouth up the Mississippi. and the en-
thusiasm with which she was every
where greeted by the people OF Louisi-
ana and Mississippi, has been widely
noticed and commented on In all sec
tions OF the Union. and her trip, just at
the time OF the inauguration Of the
Presidents Southern policy, remarked
as a happy coincidence. Itseems. how
ever, that tho object Of the Plymouth
was to test the spirit Of the people.
Recently when one OF the proprietors Of
the DEMOCRAT was In Washington, the
President expressed to him his gratifl-
cation of the cordial reception she re.
ceiyed, and observed that the expedition
was conceived with malice prepense
The experiment was a success In every
respect. and should have convinced the
whole Republican party, as we'll as the
president. of "the loyalty" OF the
South.
nur associate above referred to, Mr.
Dupre, very justly observed to the Pres
iaent that he had made most excellen
selection OF an officer to conduct tn
mission Of peace and good will on whic
the Plymouth had gone. since Capt.
Barrett, by his courteous bearing, ma
won the respect and friendship Oh DOT

The Picavune, yesterday evening,
printed an article from the Cincinnati
Enquirer, OF the 1ath inst, headed
"plan Of Operations OF the Filibus-
ters." detailing the organization and
plan Of campaign OF the three expedi-
tions design to advance into Mexico ;
their points of rendezvous and lines OF
march. Precisely the same informa-
ton, In almost the same words, was
given here by the DEMOCRAT in its
Washington specials on the morning
of the 18th. We presume the Ptcdvu''e
will, In d few days, print the further In.
telligence In relation to the Mexican
movement which the DEMOCRAT gave on
the 14th inst. Some days ago the Times
printed news which appeared In the
pEssseenAr three days previously. Our
neighbors would keep moro closely up
with the news Of the day II they were to
copy out Of the DEMocnAT instead OF
waiting for the Western papers.

In tho matter OF the number OF
failures to firms In business, Loulsi-
ana makes the best showing OF
any State in tho Union for 1876,
showing only 10 failures to each thou
sand firms In business; at the same
time that Massachusetts shows 20 fall
nres to each thousand firms, Rhode
Island %, Michigan ~. and 30 on. As
compared with the year just before the
panic, the showing is equally good Tor
Louisiana, the increase since then being
only failures to each thousand firms,
whereas In Massachusetts, 1t is Ii, Micht-
gan 10. Rhode Island 40, etc.
