HE MUST, GO.

With the exception Of South Carolina, Lou
isiana has had tiercer struggle than any
other Southern State to extricate herself from
the Shiny and cllnging tentaeles OF the Devil
fish OF American politics et-baggery,
But, 30 lar, South Carolina has been more for
tunate than Louisiana. The former State has
regatned control of her local affairs and she ID
represented Ia the Senate OF the United STATES
by two OF her most honored and distinguished
citizens.
Louisiana has also expelled the carpet
bagger from her executive chair and banlshed
him from her Legislative halls. She has also
. true representative Of her people and her
sovereignty la the Senate. But her 'eomplete
relief from the incubus OF Radicalism hiss not
yet been effected. An impostor epd fraud is
still permitted to claim and hold seat la the
Senate as her representative, though be has
been rejected by her people and Ia detested
and despised In every locaHtY Of the comFaon-
wealth.
Certainly II is disgrace to the country, az
1t is q deep humiliation TO Louisiana, that
w. p. Kellogg is permitted to hold the place
to which he was never elected, and to which
he has no claim, except that which lis derived
from the votes OF revolutionary body OF
eorruptionists and rascaae, and which were
procured by bribery.
It Is simply preposterous for the Republican
leaders. on for the administration, to maintain
that Kellogg II entitled to the seat he holds
liz the Senate OF the United States. He has
no sympathy la common with the people b.
has the impudenee to claim to represent. He
Is loathed and despised In every parish of the
State. The people Of Louisiana hold him as
a public enemy, as o corrupt man, and an In
famous pretender. There liz nos position In
thetr State, no, not the most Insignificant
place that they would, with their own con-
sent. permit him TO occupy.
Indeed. this man sitting La the United
States Senate, as representative of Louisi-
ana represents nothing but the scandalous
era Of Radiealism. now happily passed away !;
the corruptienists and Radical bummers who
I'LL the New Orleans Custom House and the
defunct Returning Board, now remembered
only with disgust and as the foulest disgrace
Of American politics.
With all these Mr.. Kellogg has been iden-
Hfed, and these alone are the things he repre-
sents in Louisiana; and, we submit to the
country, that they are things which, Il they
cannot be forgotten or blotted out, ought not
to be represented In the American Senate
Nor will they be through another session.
The country has awakened to q sense Of
this deep disgrace; the Democratic party la
impressed with its duty to ANONYMOUSLY ex-
pei this man OF fraud and cheek from the
high place into which, like reptile. he has
crept, and the people Of Louisiana require
and demand that this final act of justice shall
be done them, and that the seat frauduIently
held by W. p. Kellogg shall be occupied by
the rightful Senator, elected by the legal
Legislature and the true representatives Of
Louisiana-Judge II. M. Spofford

Many Of the leading journals OF the coun-
try have recently beantitied themselves by
appearing In new and handsome dress OF
type, and now look az fresh and tasty In ap-
pearance az they are able and enterprising In
matter. Among the number reaching the
DEMOCRAT office which have thus adorned
themselves are three of the moet valued and
valuable, of an unusually large and valuable
exchange list, namely, the Cincinnati En-
q,,irer the Pittsburg Post and the New York
Star. Too many complimentary things can
not be said about the present appearance Of
these three papers.

They had drawn the sword and persisted by

treated by their personal enemies; and OF
such are the martyrs ct the stalwarts and

Innocent families Of these Victims Of their

sympathy and commisaation will be felt by
oil humane persons. To solace and alleviate
their SORROWS and sufTefings does not demand
of Just minds the sanction and Endorsement
or the ealumnious assumption that they were
martyrs to principle and duty, and that they
had not by their own lawleas violence to

A number of leading and influential papers
III this country are throwing out some very
wise suggestions relative to photography
While ridieuling. as impraoticable, the aim of
the photographers who hope to change our
photography 80 that words will be spelled as
they are pronounced these Journals suggest
that some photographed changes might
easily be made that would be Of great advan-
tage and benefit Similar changes have more
than once been made In Che English and In
other languages. A century ago several hun
dred words In the French language were re-
duced TO their proper spelling, the superfluous
letters being thrown away In Spain, also, a
similar movement changed all the ph's into rs
and made Alphopso, Alfonso. In this country.
thicty years ago, Webster dropped the second
la traveller and the Ii In honor and savior, ct
al and now almost the entire population of
this country conform to these new speilfngs
One would scarcely calculate now great an
advantage sach saving as this Is. statis-
tIcian has calculated that the superHueus u
used In honor, savior and similar words n
Great Britain costs England ST. 900 o yeaf In
the matter Of paper, Ink and type setting.
The aew changes in spelling proposed are
the use of for the Greek phi. the dropping OF
one of the final SO In the words like kindness
and goodness, and the dropping Of the final
O In words where the previous vowel is short
Thus the word alive would still preserve It's
spelling, but live be- changed to LIZ. These
few changes. which could surely be made,
would be Of great advantage and benefit to
us, and would greatly simplify the English
or1hopraphy Viewed from O. merely utilita-
rlan standpoint, they would save hundreds
Of thousands Of dollars In ink, pen and paper,
and diminish the time spent In our schools
thousands OF years The English are o con
servatlve people II is impossible to get
them to make any change no matter how
much 1t is for the better. The consequence
is that they cling on to old spelings
and old pronunciations, and are delighted
when they spell CHUNKY. "cholmondely" and
Wooster. Worcester" English is notoriously
the most difficult language In the world to
spell, one word being full Of superfiuous and
dead letters. To these superfiuites. relics Of
the past the conservative BrIton fondly
clings. There Is no reason why we Americans
should do this or why we should not, when
fine opportunity offers itself, make changes
Id our spelling books, which could easily be
carried out and which would be OF immense
benefit to us.
