BARBARIAN TRIUMPHs.

Our so-called Christian civilization and
scientific warfare have received several Sc
we're rebuffs recently In the New and the Old
World.
The great improvements In the weapons.
machinery and organization Of regular and
disciplined armies do not appear to have
achieved the great results In war with unciv-
tlized and unsclentific peoples which were
confidently predicted and expected.
Russia gained no increase OF military re-
nown by her war against poor, impoverished
Turkey. She barely saved her honor by
enormous sacrifices of life and treasure. Ger
tainly she did not add to her prestige and
power.
Great Britain has suffered still larger loss
OF her military prestige by her recent CAM
paigns In South Africa and In North India.
In the one country she had to deal with naked
savages, having no weapons but few old
muskets, more dangerous to the persons
using them than to those against whom they
were directed, with rawhide shields and
wooden spears and guns. And yet these ro-
bust blacks inflicted upon splendIdIy organ
lied force OF British soldiers terrible defeat,
producing many sad vacancy In her roll of
promising and gallant officers and men.
Eventual triumph over these sayages has
only been gained at last by overwhelming
force and a frightfuI expenditure Of treasure.

Democrats opposed the amendment, while

THE PLATFORM.

The platform adopted by the Baton Rouge
Convention commends itself to the hearts Of
the Democracy Of Louisiana. In style, 1t Is
terse and vigorous, while it touches and COW
ers every living question now before the eoun-
teTested.
The constitution, now before us for ratifca-
ton, recognizes all the rights Of the colored
peopleas well as those Of every other class or
race of our population. That constitution
was framed By convention Of which large
ma ority were Democrats. The Baton Rouge
Convention, an exclusively political and Dem
ocratic body, called together subsequent to
the adjournment OF the Constitutional Con-
vention, fresh from the Democratic masses,
has cordially ratified the guarantees given
the colored people and pledged the party to
their full maintenance
This should put stop to the bowling
OF the Republican press and leaders, and sat-
isfy the people of the North that there is no
disposition In Louisiana to deprive the ne
groes OF any measure Of right or justice.
The first resolution Of the platform on which
Witt and McEaery stand, Is wise one;
broad 10 is liberality and statesman hip,
and It ought to still the furious tongues which
for years have been busy In our defamation.
The second resolution briefly pledges the
Democracy OF Louisiana to a liberal system
OF public schools for the education Of all
classes and races OF our population; to de-
votion to the rights of the States and the
ma ntenance OF the national authority In it's
| constituted sphere, and finally to the suprem-
acy Of the civil over the military power. IA
The resolution recommending the improve
ment Of the Mississippi river and the con-
struction Of our levees BY Federal aid, will
command the approval Of the masses Of the
people. not only Of this State, but Of those Of
the whole mighty valley Of the Father OF
Waters-the vast empire Of the West and
Southwest.
One OF the resolutions, LII ringing words, de-
nounees the "crime Of the century, the
fraud by which Hayes and Wheeler were
counted in and the will Of the people as ex-
pressed at the ballot-box reversed. This was
right and manly. No Democratic convention

Some surprise has been expressed that the
name OF the Hon. John G. Moncure, Of Caddo,
was not mentioned for the office Of Lieutenant
Governor In the late Democratic Convention
It Baton Rouge. It was known that Major
Noncure had been favorably mentioned In all
sections Or the State Ia connection with the
ofsioe, hence Ii was expected that his name
would be presented. Major Moncure was not
placed Id nomination at his own request. He
positively declined to allow the use OF his
name for tie position. and his friends, respect
1ng his Wishes, did not bring it forward.
