The Paris papers have been investigating
the crisis Of N Id France to find out exactly
what 1t cost that country. There was no
revolution, no outbreak, no disturbance OF
any kind, and. yet the political excitement
was q heavy cost and burden OF the nation.
No less than 3O78 mayors and 4462 other
public functlonaries were discharged, 2067
public houses closed, So newspapers seized
and 1866 political prosecutions begun. 1t Is a
tribute to the French nation that notwith-
standing all this provocation they kept quiet
and attempted no violence Of any kind. The
political prosecutions alone cost the govern
ment fully $1,000 900 and the defense at least
half that amount. A careful study OF the
entire crisis has shown that 1t cost France
between $50, oo0, 600 and $780, coo. 600, without
counting the damage that resulted from the
son9 continued state Of unrest and incertitude.

parishes obtain the money facilities necessary
to restore the value OF their funds and to con-
duct with energy and advantage their plant
ing enterprises
The plan OF relief proposed by the DEMO-
CRAT will preserve unassailed the reputation
and credit Ct Louisiana; 1t will reduce the rate
Oh taxation to d just and reasonable figure,
and place III the control OF our banks q first
class currency through the medium OF which
every agricultural and mercantile or other
industry In the State will be reinrigorated
and inspired with new life.
Were the State debt, OF d considerable por-
ton of 1t, converted into currency bonds OF
the denominations we have before mentioned,
and no portion OF the debt ~rep1diated, the
currency bonds would In O few months-so
soon as the first installment Of interest was
paid-be worth their face value In green
bucks or national bank notes, end be-
come as convenient d circulating medium.
The small coupons, even, might be
clipped as needed, and they would speedily
be accepted ut all our stores for their full
value. We earnestly call the attention OF the
planters OF every parish Of the State to this
scheme of relief, and we ask them to grave1y|
and prayerfully consider II, and determine,
whether IL be best to repudiate the debt, save
one OF two mills In taxation and render 1t im1
possible for the State, Tor years, to obtain the
volume OF currency their interests and indus
tries require or accept the debt at q lower rats
OF interest, modified, as we nave suggested,
and thus benefit themselves and the State at

d question to be hastily determined, and we
trust the people will consider this PROPOSE
ton and sustain their delegates In q more
just, wise and moderate tone Of action than
that mapped out In the majority report 81 the
Committee on the Public Debt.
To another class Of the people this plan Of
settlement IL of the greatest Importance. The
working people need 1t. Instead OF repudia-
ting the debt, frightening capital, and deter
ring millions Of It from coming to New Or
leans, let the Convention, by the plan we
propose, throw Into active circulation five or
SIX millions more Of capital, and there will be
q revival Of trade and of business, and thou
sands OF idle laborers and mechanics will
find employment for themselves and sup
port for their suffering families. The hope Of
the workingman Is In the protection and free
circulation Of capital and not In Its destruc-
tion. This part OF the subject deserves an
article to itself, and we hope to say more on

One OF the reasons for Ewing's nomination
by the Democrats Id Ohio was the belief that
he would be strongly supported by the Green
hackers, whose views were Identical with his
On the question Of finance. It appears,
however, as II nothing could please these
G~reenbackers, for they nominated q full
Greenback ticket at once, and have prepared
to nominate another In a few days. It is
thought that before the campaign ie
well under way the Greenbackers will
have at least half q dozen full
