JEFFERSON DAVIS,

| Tomorrow a matter that belongs to the
history of the country will happen at Missis.
sippi City. Jefferson Davis, President of the
Southern COnfederacy, will be presented with
gold badge and certificate of membership by
the Louisiana Division of the Army of Ten
nessee, and in acknowledgment will deliver
an address. Our people are all anxious to
hear the hero and statesman of the ''Lost
Cause" speak. We all remember that his
State papers were the best written and most
eloquent as such that have even been written
in fact II brutal force could have been over
come by genius and intelligence, those State
papers show that the cause Of the Confederacy
would have won. But victory does not al
ways follow the cause OF truth and right; In
telligence, genius and virtue do not always
make q winning fight in this world There
fore, the hero OF battles, the leader in states
manship, the author of the greatest State
papers in the world is now poor private
citizen, great only in the gigantic reflect
which his genius has given to the cause
which we have lost.
Happily genius is undying, and the man
who has represented the noble idea of oppo-
sition to sectional oppression and Federal
Capitalization still is master Of all his facul-
ties and full of the principle that made him
great, and that yet will save the country,
Jefferson Davis will speak tomorrow at Mis-
sissippi City, in answer to deserved compli-
ment which will be paid to him by the Louisi-
ana Division of the Army of Tennessee. All
the young men in the city ought to hear him
speak. There is lesson and an example for
them in every word that will be spoken by the
great man, and there are hallowed teachings
in his very presence. In this country and
age, in the present crisis of politics, where
decentralization Is running riot, and the young
men of the country have scarcely any stand |
ard to follow and no glaring beacon-lght to |
guide them, word of advice from such
man as jefferson Davis is precious, both as a
lesson in practical politics and as teaching
in the highest standard of morality, which |
must underlie every true republican theory. |
We therefore call upon our young men to
attend. We need lessons nowadays.

The Republicans of Alabama have changed
their minds about making a canvass of that
State. A few weeks ago, encouraged by fat
tering dispatches from Washington describ-
ing the strength of Republicanism in the
South, the hopes Of the Alabama Republicans
revived, and they determined to enter the
field and contest the State with the Demo-
gratis. A Republican convention was accord
ingly called, evidently for the purpose of
nominating ticket; and people began to
study election figures in order to see what
chances the Republicans had of carrying the
State. This convention met last week, but it
failed altogether of its brilliant purposes. Its
adjournment, without action, has practically
dissolved the Republican party of Alabama.
An attempt was made in the convention to
indorse Hayes, but this was almost uuanim-
ously voted down; proposition to nominate
State ticket was similarly voted down, and
tie convention contented itself with putting
forth bloody-shirt platform and then ad-
journing sine die. This is probably the last
we shall ever hear OF Republican party In
Alabama. The Republicans Of South Caro-
lima talk of holding State convention and
nominating State ticket in August; il this
be done BY them, 1.-The Palmetto State" will
be the only State in the South where the Re-
publicans viii enter the field as Republicans
in the coming election. Everywhere else
they have given up the fight

to afford bis people an opportunity to frame d
constitution OF their own and acceptable tc
themselves. Will the Democratic party ven
ture to violate this obligation? VIII that party.
| claiming to be the party Of the people, ven
ture to assemble again In convention and say
to the world that the constitution which was
framed under military order; which was
adopted after the Acknowledgement of nearly
every decent man in the State, and which was
upheld Tor eight years by the bayonet is a
good enough constitution for Louisiana?
1t will be said that this is sentimental
view of the question. SO be it, But truly
sentimental view Of any great public question
Is always based upon sound principles. And
in this case the sentimental view is based, as
we shall show In the course Of the next fifteen
days, upon principles which cannot be vio-
lated, without the greatest danger to our inter-
ests The object Of this article Is only to
show to our esteemed contemporary, the
Union Record, that the Democratic party of
this State is specifically pledged to consti-
tutional convention, and that it is upon this
very issue that the party has fought since
1868, and upon which the present State gov
eminent was elected and inaugurated. The
pledgeis specific and the necessity for its full
fillment is as urgent now as it was when it
was made in 1868.
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1878-07-09

After half a dozen contradictions, the teIe-
grams have finally decided that the Eon-Par-
tisan ticket was successful in the late Califor-
mia election, and that the workingmen were
defeated and Will not, therefore, have control
OF the convention, as was anticipated. Will
this end the great fight between labor and
capital on the Pacific slope? Will the work
ingmen acknowledge their defeat and retire
from the field?
The California election, instead of being
finally settled, as the newspapers say it is,
promises to revive again and remain open and
Ia dispute as long as our 1879 election. At a
meeting In San Francisco last week Kearney,
the leader of the workingmen, announced the
programme and intentions of the Labor party.
he held that the late election was really car
RED By the workingmen, but that they had
been counted out by their opponents, who
have full control of the election machinery.

Louisiana Returning Board game on us; but
we VIII behead the first thief that Hampers
with the ballot-box, and we will see whether
the military power, including the fraud of a
PRESIDENT, will dare interfere with our rights ),
LII this idea that the vote is being mis-
counted ever gets current among the Califor-
ma worlingmen-a a majority Of them
already appear to believe tit means a bitter
and deplorable struggle. There are thous.
and circumstances to convince the working
men that election frauds have been committed ::
the election machineryis in the hands Of their
opponents; the contest is close one and the
control OF the convention hangs on q few hun
dred votes; lastly, the fact that the entire
press of California admitted the success of
the workingmen at first, and it was some
weeks beforei the Non-Partisans claimed to
have carried the State-is enough to arouse
suspicion.
Altogether, it looks very much as if Cali
fornia was going TO have dose Of that "con-
tested election difficulty from which Louisi
ana has suffered so many years.

Go not believe In an appellate court composed

tanning his own decisions, and must exercise

They will undoubtedly operate q great

ness and expense Of this slow process lie the
great defects Of our courts. It is these defects
which are fatal to credit the very basis of

But, as a general proposition, we are ops
posed to any such wholesale amendment OF the
constitution, involving as it does the re-crea-
tion Of one of the coordinate branches of the
governments by any such committee process
as this. We cannot afford to have our Judi
cial establishment erected after any such ir-
and hap-hazard fashion. Even If
the proposed changes are beneficial, they are
crude and ill-dgested, and 1t is better TO endure

AS q result of the Berlin conference Eng
land is to get the island of Cyprus, most
valuable and important acquisition. It seems
10 be the policy of the congress to make the
most valuable donations of the effects of the
late empire OF Turkey to those powers that
did not 60 to war; Thus the territorial acuui-
sitions OF Austria are far more valuable than
those oil Russia, which had to bear all the
burden, expense and loss of the late war.
Roumania, also, which lost thousands of its
soldiers, gains nothing. while Servia, which
maintained peace until all the real fighting
was over, receives valuable territorial ag-
grandizement.
The island OF Cyprus, which the congress
has decided to award to England, is valua-
bic acquisition for many reasons. 1t is fertile
and rich, settled by a peaceful race Of
Greeks. It's northern shore approaches to
within fifty miles of the coast of Asia Minor,
while the eastern end is only sixty-five miles
distant from Syria. Possession OF the island,
therefore, will give England complete control
OF the Levantine trade. Its nearness to
Egypt also viii enable England to better pro-
feet her interests In the Suez Canal and India.
It is said that Beaconstield will also demand
theisland of NJ ytelene (the ancient Lesbos), off
the northwest coast of Asia Minor and within
hardly probable, however, that this island
viii be given to England, as it's possession
would virtually place the control of Constan-
tinople and the straits in the hands Of Great
Britain alone.
