We believe we reflect public opinion, In this
locality at least, when we say that the New
Orleans DEMOCRAT has the sympathy Of every
patriot In the State in Its vigorous and, to
this time, successful war against the LoIIisi-
ana Lottery Company and kindred monopo-
lies In New Orleans.
Bot Is this sympathy alone what is required
TO support newspaper
We think not.
While we syInpathize let us support! We
owe 1t To Ourselves to do 80; and that support
must come In the shape Of means wherewith
tyranny-in lotteries or whatsoever shape ft
should come-may be resisted.
Let 1000 country Democrats respond with
their subscriptions at once, and we, TO lead,
VIII forward all from this parish who desire
to aid freedoms cause.
Let 1t not be said that monopolists have
power TO destroy our defenders The Press.
Come In with names and rnoDey-and we
will keep standing column OF the Vfndscotor
open to record all who subscribe.
Will our cODfreres Of the country press aid
In this undertaking?

stated, In conclusion, that the present Secretary
had told him tbat he had not snsp ended these
contracts because he thought they were Illegal

IL has been stated on equally Trustworthy au-
thority That Judge Hilton wfys approached some
weeks ego by a representative Of n we'll known
firm OF lawyers Of this city In referencs to the
restoration Of the body.
This, the lawyer said could be. effected upon
certain conditions First that 100000 In cash
should be paid down when tho body Is pro-
dueed; second, that no questions shall be asked
further than necessary for the absolute Identi-
tication OF tho body; third. that u pledge Of
honor be given that no attempt will be made TO
trace or to arrest the robbers. Negotiations
upon this basis were begun and concluded ten
days ago. Fifty thousand dollars In cash in :
stead Of $4,000 as mt first asked, was paid. The
identtlcation was entirely satisfactory. and the
body taken to Its present resting place At

New YoRR. Jan. 1e-The snow storm which
set Ia last night has continued all day with
more or less severity. aud Ia the heaviest OK
perisneed for many years. The streets are
blocked with snow, and travel OF all kinds Ia
seriously impeded. On NIL surface railroads
the teams were doubled up Ia tho carly trips
and the cars were packed with passengers
Despite tho elevated roads suburban railroad
passengers met with more or less delays, trains
on the different routes being behind On the
North river the binding snow was as annoying
as tn lex fog The boats on all ferries ran at
Irregular Intervals at half apeed, constantly
blowing whistles. On East river the condition
OF affairs was the same thn boats running with
extreme caution. There was some ice In tho
river and the boats plowed through II with DIM

not arrive TIL y a. m.
The South ern mall duo at arrived Mt 10
O'Clock and the mall from tho West and South

late. The Central mail over the New York Cen
t!ral and Hudson River Road. due ut ii 30, had
been abandoned altogether
Travel on the Eric is not Interrupted and

The overthrow Of the Cabinet, he says. would
lead to President MacMahon's retirement and a
government OF the extreme left; with a revolu-
tionary programme which would profoundly
deranRe society throughout France. The cor

Measure.
Especial to the Democrat !

WARRINGTON. Jan. Ie.-The variety of small
schemes introduced In The House to- day shows
that our interests are ieopardized by the old
faults, TO wit: Lack Of concerted action and
want Of cooperation. not only among members
Of our delegation. but as between delega-
tlons from all the lower river States. It Ia
almost futile to expect success till all our local
interests can be consolidated on single
measures from first to last. TO the esclu-
eion Of oil other individual schemes. This Is
particularly true Of the House. In which 1t will
be much moro difficult to pass any levee bill
whatsoever than In the Senate.
