That the Legislative department of
the State government needs to be con.
fined to named ,duties the "railroad-
ing" through the Senate of the Amend. s.
ments, rithout one ,cord of debate, am.
ply testi6es. This august body ofso.
ions pushed through, those measures,
vital alike to the interest of the citi.
zen aud his property, with such haste
as to cast suspicion over the whole af.
fair. The rules of the Senate were
observed, while common decepcy was
violated 10 every instance. And this
is a Senate which takes. particular
pains to affirm that it is not composed
Of politicians. We should think not {;
for Of all the acts Of politicians, in the
common and vulgar acceptation of
the term, none will compare to the
trickery, indeceucy and outrage Of
this action of the Senate, in dragging
amendments, the people will utterly
repudiate at the polls, through without
regard to the common usages of po.
liteoess. Even q "Fire Company
Charter" is treated with more respect.
The V1NDlcAToR was right-the
Assembly is failure in every respect.

Constitutional Amendments.

We cannot, rs some of our contem-
poraries, see even one remove 10 the
proposed amendments above the in
strument they propose to remedy.
Instead of restricting powers as is
demanded, these amendments enlarge
them. Instead Of abrogating perui-
cious clauses, these amendments do
not touch them. Instead of destroy
ing monopolies, these amendments
permanently fasteD those which ex-
ist and they are in fact, silent as a
charuel house, on every poiut vital to
the citizen and his interest.
Public opinion here is even more
hostile to the Amendments than to
the Radical Constitution, and the
Democratic vote in the coming elec.
tion, shonld these amendments be
submitted which We hope and trust
they may not, will be almost solid
against them.
A new Constitution Is all that will
satisfy public opinion, and tie amend-
ment scheme, the offspring of corrup.
tion and cowardice, is damned by
the whole body of Louisiana's citizens
at its birth.

wherein effort was made on the part
Of the people to fairly settle with the
judgment creditors, and how did they
keep fuitb7
They violated it-and gave for rca-
sons &! therefor, qulbbles which might
hold good in some Courts, but which
public opinion, to which they now
appeal, will unhesitating|y condemn
They stated, first; that the gentlemen
named as arbitrators had not been
sworn; and secondly, that the Attor-
ney's signing had no authority to do
so from their clients. Did they stop
there, and in spirit which fairness
to say the least of it would demand
and remedy their ohjections7 Did
they deny the justness of the findings
of this Board of Arbitration! They
did not--but they went on drauin9
Nrilerds, collected from the people ty
taxation on these same claims, knoming
them to be frauds, because they had
been 20 pronounced by q Board cfge"-

On this $40 $3.50 Of claims, reek-
ing with fraud, tho parties owning
them drew from the taxpayer $685.
"a, or over 60 per cent, after the
Board had pronounced them worth
less.
Comment, we conceive to he total
ly unnecessary. There is the agree.
meut between the Judgment creditors
and the people; the findings of the
Board of Arbitration, matters of pub.
lie record, and the Clerks Office con-
tains the suits founded on fraudulent
paper, upon which these same own.
ers of judgments drew dividends.
1t is the duty Of those who hold
honest claims to assist the parocl'ial
authorities iu recovering this amount
from those who, unjustly and in vio-
lation of a sacred agreement, retain
it. Instead of denouucing tie Police
Jury let them come to their help,
and eDdeavor to recover this Sc, ,932.-

payment Of those claims which are
just and then provide for the settle

the offence. We will continue this
