Especial Correspondence Of the Democrat
LOUISVILLE, KY, June 22, 1878.
There Is o natural affinity between the pee.
pie OF Kentucky and the people Of Louisiana.
and whatever affects the one in some degree
affects the other. The laws Of cOnsanguinitv.
) on the one hand, and fraternal relationship
on the other help to materialize this reei-
, procity Of feeling and bring them closer to-
gether. The people Of Louisville are in
timately acquainted with the true inwardness
OF our social and political movements, and II
Ia no rare occurrence to meet gentleman iri
} Kentucky who has brothers and relations
and Intimate friends living and doing per
manent business in New Orleans These
people take profound interest in all that
pertains to our city, and very often they ask
you startling and immensely pertinent ques-
tions. For instance, one man asks you,

still pull the wires, or Is he contented With
simply depreclatng the credit and bonds Of
the State, with the view Of buying them up
at their lowest figure, and afterwards selling
when he has "bolstered' them up to an adj
vance Of four and eight cents2 And again,
another man will ask "Why do the wide-
awake men of New Orleans shut their eyes To
this diaphanous trickery OF Warmoth2 Are
not some Of the New Orleans capitalists as
deep in the scheme as he is-this scheme Of
| depreciating your bonds and numbering your
| credit! How many fingers were In the late
pie Of that secret circular?" In fact one would
suppose that either Howard or Warmoth Is
the Mephistopheles Of Louisiana politics, be-
cause when the waters are touched by one or
the other, the result Is mud, stencil and COR
ruptiOn. 1t seems strange that Warmoth
should 50 often realize so immensely from his
transactions tn State bonds and securities. Is
1t the old story of the NiCoIson pavement
steal the Slaughter-house pot and others OF
recent memory, in which he had his aiders
and abettOrs, his silent partnerships and con-
freres, drawn from the ranks of the people
whom he was plundering? 1t seems strange
that Warm0th and Kellogg should hold such
D grip upon Louisiana affairs. Cannot the
people shake them Off Are there too many
allied with him to prevent their detection and
exposure? Would 1t hurt too many outside
friends who differ from them in outward poli-
ties, "but consent with the thieves and par-
take with the adulterers?" Everybody cOrn-
mends the brilliant fight made by the DEMO-
CgAT against
