Where the Blame Rests.

Congressman Ellis, of Louisiana, is
authorized to speak for the neglected
interests of the South, and the causes
ther, of, if any man is, and here is the
testimony he bears in recent interview
with New Orleans Democrat reporter.
These causes, he says, are, first, "hesita-
ton of intelligent members to vote for
measures involving a great outlay of
public money without full discussion and
thorough understanding, and demagog-
zeal fear on the part of small members of
the word subsidy second, Mr.. Speaker
Randall" The opposition to subsidies,
Mr.. Ellis admitted, did not come from
any particular section or party, but from
Southern" as we'll as Northern men.
He said:
at is the suprenaest folly to attribute to
Northern Democrats alone the failure of these
measures. We have as many small, narrow
minded men in Congress from the South as
from any other section of the Union-men
who are Democrats and Southern men
ready to vote millions to improve court
house or mill creek in their own districts,
but who are unwilling to vote dollar for
works of national importance anil national
necessity for fear of the cry of subsidy

sound Doctrine.

The Democracy of old Lowndes are
sound on the financial issues. They are
in favor OF holding the bopdholders to
their contract with the plowholders, and
opposed to the government repudiating
its own dues. Here is what the Cobb's
Switch Democracy in tn cir recent prima-
ry, said:
Resolved, That believing Ro permanent
prosperity can come to our country without
financial reform, we hereby put ourselves
upon record as favoring the abolition of
National Banks the paying of the untstand-
ing $40 Federal bonds according to the
original contract ii. e. in legal tender notes.
and the issuing OF 2reenbacks in a volume
sufficient to meet thQ demands of commerce
and agriculture. Bonds bearing 3-65 per
cent. Interest should be Issued. and made in
terconvertible with greenbacks.
Resolved, That the spectacle of Republic
refusing to receive its own money for its
custom dues il disgraceftll in the extreme,
and merits the contempt and derision of all
people; and that while Kse disapprove of
the cry of Reputation, we cannot success
fully meet the arguments oil It's advocates
whea the Republic repudiates its own
paper.

In the following Enthusiastically
manly address, this talented gentleman
withdrew from the Congressional con
test in the 1st District. The people have
high honors in store for him, and he de-
serves them. 1t will be public misfor
tune if he is not induced to return to the
State councils where more than elsewhere
the best talent and patriotism are needed:
As some prominence has been given to
my name in connection with the candidacy
for Congress in this Congressional Dis trict,
[ deem it proper to thus make public and
formal Withdrawal from the contest.
| frankly admit that | do so because
know my chances are hopeless; that Col .
Muldrow's nomination is certain; that a
further prosecution of the canvass on nv
part would be contentious and perverse;
that it would perhaps embarrass my friends
and have tendency to eugGnder some dis
sention and impair that harmony, unity
and good will that should characterize nv
com petitor's nomination and that of every
Democratic nominee.
1t is proper to add also that | am very
grateful TO those who have Supported me.
Very respectfully,

LIFE OF GEN. ALBERT SIDNEY JOHN

LIFE OF GEN. ALBERT SIDNEY JOHN
sToN.-The Appletons will soon issue the
life of General Albert Sidney johnson,
by his son, COL William Preston John
ston, who was aid of President Davis
during the Confederacy. The author is a
Professor in the Lee Washington College
Virginia, and a gentleman of superior
literary attachments. We are assured
the work abounds with valuable history
of the great events with which Gen.
Johnson's name and fame are insepera-
bly, associated. 1t will be especially in
teresting to the soldiers of the Confeder-
acy, their families and friends, particu-
larry the Army of Tennessee, which Gen.
johnson was leading to victqR when his
career was suddenly cut short by min
ME ball. We will have occasion to refer
to this work again, but will say now that
the publishers have appointed that esti-
mable gentleman and gallant soldier, Gen.
Writ Adams, agent for the sale of the
work mississippi and Louisiana. No
more appropriate selection could have been
made. Gen. Adams was near the person
of Gen. Johnston when he received his
death-wound and had been on the battle
field with him in Texas in the boyhood
Of the former. The old army friends of
Gen. Adams will be especially delighted
to encourage him in his enterprise and
assist in the circulation of work which |
will contribute largely to the Southern
history Of the late war.

KEEP 1T BEFORE THE PEoPLE.-The
people must not lose sight of the follow
ing letter, the authorship of which ha;
been fixed upon John Sherman, who
went with other visiting statesmen of the
Republican party, to see fair count
in Louisiana. Mr.. Sherman wouldn't
swear that he did not write it, though he
said it contained ideas he knew himself to
entertain. Two witnesses, however, testi-
fed that he did not write it, and numer-
Gus circumstances have been brought up
corroborative of their statement. 1t was
written, as the reader is aware, to induce
the Supervisors of East Feliciana parish
to stick to a false protest which had been
prepared for them by Republican aft
davit maker, and by means of which
Packard said that he could be counted
in" as Governor and Hayes as President.
The trick worked to the extent of making
Hayes President through the agency of
the Electoral Commission which refused
to go behind the returns and receive evil
dence that they were fraudulent, and
Packard has been rewarded or conciliated
with the most profitable consulship within
the gift of the Administration. He
sticks to it, however, that he received
more votes in Louisiana for Governor
than Hayes did, and that if the latter
was counted in" he ought to have been.
But to the letter which constituted the
mudsill of the great fraud:
New ORLEANS, Nov. 20, 1876.
GENTLEMEN-Your note of even date has
just been received. Neither Mr.. Hayes,
NJ self, the gentlemen who accompany me,
or the country at large can ever forget the
obligations under which you will have
placed us, should you stand firm in the posi-
ton you have taken. From a long and in
innate acquaintance with Gov Hayes, [ am
justified in assuming responsibility for
promises made, and will guarantee that
yOu shall be provided for as soon after the
4th of March as may be practicable, and in
such manner as will enable you both to
leave Louisiana, should you deem it neces
sary. Very truly yours.
