On Monday night Joe Dunlap, country
man, from Upton county, Tennessee, went
to Bohan's saloon, on Main street, near Pop
lar, anu was with Jake Levy and William
Miller. Dunlap was tipsy, and row about
drinks epsued, during which Dunlap was
knocked down and robbed of q pocket-book
containing two hundred and ninety dollars,
according to his account. The police were
called in, and found Dunlap lying on the
floor In an almost insensible condition. He
was arrested on the charge of drunkenness,
ard was locked up in the stationhouse for
the night. Yesterday morning, when brought
before President Porter, he told the story of
his robbery. He had black eye, his face
was battered, and his lips were cut. War
rants were issued for the arrest of Jake Levy
and William Miller. They were arrested,
and gave bond to appear and answer the
charge before Esquire Quigley to-day.
The following verses, which we find in
the st. Louis Republican, are addressed to
the forty sixth congress, which met yesterday:
Firm for the peoples cause
Stubbornly stand
Let no unequal laws
Worry the land
Let them be wiped away
Now. for ali time;
Give US a brighter day.
Fit for our primel
Partisans, badly scared,
Greedy for gain.
Outrage and crime have dared,
Freedom have slain.
Seei at the polls they stand
Free thought to smother,
sword IN one llTt6Q nanQ,
Brides in the other!
Laws for partY's ends
Shamelessly made,
Now by the peoples friends
Soon must be stayed.
Warn OF the soldieTy,
Now and hencefOrth
Make every ballot free.
South as In Northi
Brides and the bayonet
Drive from the polls!
SchemerS may rave and fret;
Base are their souls.
Justice and truth shall stand
Whatever fall
Such is Rights clear command
Equal to ALL

No Fraudulent Bends Must Ne Paid.
fWest Baton Rouge Sugar Planter,l

West Baton Rouge Sugar PlanterJ
One OF the questions most egitating the
public mind In connection with forming new
constitution ID the condition OF the State debt.
In the country the desire seems general to
scale. reduce the interest and wherever prac-
tieable to repudiate those bonds known and
can be- proven to be fraudulently issued.
Upon these points we take sides with our
country friends. There are only two newspa-
peers In the State known to US which urge the
PAYMENT Of the public debt In full, but as
they are believed to be In the interest OF the
bondholders, they seem to carry very little
weight or influence with the masses. These
newspapers are printed In New Orleans. and
need not be mentioned by name. Struggling
as our people are with great difficulties to
keep homes over their heads and provide
support for their families, 1t ID unjust and UNI
reasonable to compel them to pay for what
they have never received the benefit OF and
which entails upon them burdensome tax
never to be of any service to them or their pos,
terity-a tax which has been forced by fraud
and trickery 1t Ia but natural then. that
they should seek relief from those who claim
to be the peoples friends and servants. Ali

willing to pay, but not O. dollar known to have
been fTaudulently Incurred. This ID Justice
1t Is right-it is reason. 1t will be seen when
the convention is organized, or rather when
really represent the people In that body and
who the bondholders. Those who are Tor
right and justice will receive the plaudits OF
an oppressed peoI while those who urge the
contrary will be- looked upon as inimical TO
their interests s)Id under the patronage Of
their enemies. Delegates of both parties will
be compelled to show their hands then and
take The consequence Of their acts, for good
or bad as the case may be. These are no times
for thrilling. Bowed down and oppressed,
relief Is imperatively demanded and 1t must
come, or there will be an uprising not easily
suppressed certainly not by argument or
moral suasion It is immaterial into whose
hands these fraudulent bonds have passed

In fact we have no credit. / have an es-
tate OF nearly ten Thousand acres, with seven
houses and machinery, ready for the pillow,
and the colored people have remained upon
1t, cultivating small patches; but, while it
will require $4,000 to put 1t in operation, /

planters WHAT we need is credit: we have
the lands and labor, but no money and no
credit. LII we could borrow money at or 5
per cent Louisiana would produce more cot
ton and sugar and rice than before the war.
This panic Will not last. The constitutional
convention will be composed Of our most ip-
telligent citizens and they will do nothing TO
draw away capital and to destroy credit. It Is
estim ated that citizens of Louisiana have
Invested S2,500000 In per cent Federal bonds

ital have been withdrawn. AS soon as the

has been once scaled, that, owing to the ca
lamities ] have mentioned, the creditors Of
the State should consent to q reduction OF the
rate OF interest. Seven per cent is too high
