The following extract is made from 4
formerly prominently identified with

was received III this city by i resident
in tile Palmer House: But few Of
Your citizens Gun conceive of the Sutler-
ing and devastation made by the yellow

The New York Express demands that the
cause OF the fever sconrge shall be sought
out, laid bare and exterminated. Let every
thing be done to relieve the suffering, 1t says
'but we must not stop there. The cause must
be got hold OF and destroyed" This cause is
just what the entire faculty Of New Orleans
have long sought after, and any suggestions
from any source us to how it ID TO be found
would be thankfully received. The DEMO
CRAT has recently called attention to the lack
Of knowledge of the origin of yellow fever,
and urged TINT the government give the mat
ter the consideration Its Importance demands,
and issue an invitation to the suydns OF the
world to meet In this city and make ii thor
ough investigation into It's cause. II the En-
press will join the DEMOCRAT in urging such
action, much good may be accomplished.
New Orleans physicians are before oil others
in the treatment of the disease after 1t has
appeared; but they frankly acknowledge their
inability to cope with the problem as to
whence it comes and wherefore. An interna-
tional convention OF physicists held here
would probably determine these questions.
Such a convention should be composed of
delegates selected, with due regard to their
fitness, by the heads of the European and
American governments, and upon the In
yitation Of the President Of the United States.

TO THIS OOMPLEXION7

The following paragraph clipped from the
Cincinnati Enquirer throws % flood Of light
on the new local movement in this city, which
has put up DR.. Gardner for State Treasurer
III opposition to Major Burke, and Cullom
and Castellanos, attorneys at law, Tom AM
derson and Mad Wells for Congress. Says
the Enquirer:
II Is predicted that the Republican party
will change Its name to that OF National, for
this reason Tho party, SO long Us IL retains
It's present name, cannot hope. to have an
effective organization iii the Southern States.
The name Ia associated with almost every
thing repulsive to the Southern mind Its
associations would not attach TO the National
tional party without mourning the odium that
now attaches to those belonging to the Re-
publican party. White and eolored Republic
cans would gladly seek the shelter Of the new
Is more appropriate and suits the principles
of the leaders Of the party better than the
name Republican. And 1t is about time for
the party to take O new name. We shall not
BIO surprised to witness the change.
From this 1t appears that what we have re-
garded as merelya local popularity OF this
movement, arising from exigencies existing
only In Louisiana, characterizes it elsewhere,
and that the whole thing has been coneocted
with malice aforethought. It WIS very plain
that the National movement In this State was
nothing else than Radiealism In disguise,
and that It's sole object was the betrayal Of
our people into an Endorsement Of the Re-
turning Board scoundrels. 1t was very easy
to divine the motif of the movement here, but
we were not aware that the extent and inn
portance Of 1t were of SO much consequence
us the Enquirer indicates.
Now, our people will see what this move
ment means They will see that what we
ourselves regarded as q merely local malady
is by no means confined to this State. They
will see that 1T is Il well-digested plan for the
defeat Of the Democratic party, and In the
interests OF the Republican party. To vote
the National ticket then means to all political
intent and purpose to vote the Radical ticket
Let our people not allow themselves to be
duped by any such thin and shallow fraud as
this. We have no approximations, however,
on this score. They are hardly the woodcock
to be caught in such springes. &...-.

THE THEIRS ANNIVERSARY.

ia When Theirs died, q little over year ago.
politics ran high and partisan bitterness was
at fever heat In France. Then this man, the
first President of France and the greatest
and purest Of all her statesmen, who, through
eighty busy years, had worked as few men
have ever done at many things, and oil for
the glory of France--and who, dying, left her
as his bequest the republic itself-this man
was refused the Madeleine by polite Cardi-
nal at the dictation Of De Broglie and
Fortou. When this old man died, full Of
honors and work, his name the first In
France, they buried him from the little
church of Our Lady Of Lorette, over in the
Montmartre quarter. The Cardinal, who
owed his scarlet to Theirs, could do nothing
to set the Church against the State, and
Theirs had died without having made friends
with De Broglie and Fortou. So he forbade
the Madeleine. But great change has taken
place In France since that day year ago.
De Broglie and Fortou no longer rule France.
The friends Of Theirs are in the ascendency
again. and this crafty Cardinal, who
breads the newspapers as we'll as his breviary
and Is not insensible to the gospel OF events
comes forward and invites all France to come
to Notre Dame-where kings have worship
ed and emperors have been crowned-to do
honor to the memory Of Theirs and pray for
the repose OF his soul. Accordingly on Sep
tember g. the first anniversary of his death, 8
solemn mass was celebrated, with all the
pomp and circumstance of the Church, for the
repose Of the soul of Louis Adolph Theirs,
Ancien President de la Repubique.
It would naturally be expected that Presi-
dent MacM ahon would have been present to
do honor to his old friend and predecessor.
But the Marshall President preferred to shoot
cartridges on that day, and a-shooting ne
went, sending one Of his ministers to repre-
sent the government and his son to represent
himself. But 1t appears that MaeMahon was
not missed. He was more conspicuous by his
absence than he would have been had he
attended In his own proper person.
The occasion, as described by the Herald
correspondent, was an extraordinary one,
even for Paris. ALI Republican France gath
cred to do honor to the man who made the
republic, who did more-who created the
conditions which make it's perpetuation pos
sible.

standing the prevalence Of the fever. But
the lines Of railroads travsrslng the country
in every direction have sadly ifnpeded
the natural advantages Of our city. Trade
has been diverted from her, while corrupt and
imbecile government has involved her in
debt and burdened her property with crush
ing weight OF taxation. The rapacity and cor
ruptlon Of politicians and the lethargy OF her
capitalists and merchants have checked her
growth. and unless we institute u new and
more progressive order OF things we cannot
expect To thrive, Oh even TO hold our own. Let
the energy Of man supplement the prodigal-
ity OF nature, and despite OIL her epidemics,
New Orleans will become one among the
wea1thtest and most important cities Of
America.

Washington Territory, in anticipation OF
becoming a State, is about to vote on a consti-
tuition submitted by a convention recently
held. Among the provisions of this new con-
stitution there are some novel and peculiar
ones. For the first fifteen years the State
debt shall not exceed $4,000, and it shall
never exceed 100000. All railroads shall be
public highways, free to all under such regu-
lations as the State Legislature shall pre-
scribe. Another provision makes sharehold-
ers In every joint stock company individually
liable for labor performed for such company,
and it is also provided that none but citizens
or inchoate citizens of the United States shall
be employed in any public Office Or at any
work prosecuted by the State.

The Republican Congressional Committee
is just now struggling with the financial
problem. The recent elections do not seem
TO have produced that harmony of ideas so
essential to the development Of a perfect
plan of action. A few days ago Secretary
Gorham, the real manager of the concern,
made speech at Newark, in which he
claimed that the Republican party was the
party of soft money, and advanced other
original ideas upon the subject in accord with
this statement. Mr.. Eugene Hale, the chair,
man of the committee, in an interview yes,
terday, insisted that the party was the party
of hard money and would fight the canvass
upon that issue. These contradictory views
may have their uses, however. Gorham car
be quoted as Radical authority upon the cur
rency question in Louisiana, while Hale can
be made to serve the same purpose in Massa
ch11setts. Tt looks like a straddle.
