GREAT CONSOLATION.

There is consolation in everything
even in political defeat. We shall
hear less about the sugar tariff I'M
der the Republican Congress-. The
Republicans are protectionists at all
events. For the last four or five
years we have been harassed by an
annual wrangle over the sugar tariff.
Our sugar interest has been kept in
constant suspense and our planters
put TO continual trouble and outlay
in having their case properly repre-
sented. The Republican party, how
ever, created the tariff, and will, in
all human probability, perpetuate it.
We shall at least have a rest, and to
that extent, at least, be grateful. IN

held ut Lansing, Mich, on the 9th,
nominated Augustus G. Baldwin, Of
Pontiac, for justice Of the Supreme
Court. The resolutions adopted dc
claIed confidence in the ultimate tpi.
umph of the party aud its faith, and
express belief in the principles which
have held and will ever hold the par
ty together; in the doctrine of the
constitution, that the powers not del
egated to the general government are
reserved to the States and in the
wisdom of the funding bill, vetoed b,

ing the action of the national banks
and capitalists, who threatened to
bring ruin on the country in case the

maud such amendments to the bank

the banks from controlling the cur
rency and disturbing the interests Of

NEW ORLEANS, March 1881.

SPECIAL TO THE CAPITOLIAN. B
New ORLEANS, March 1881.
After the storm comes the calm,
and we have had storms Of all sorts
down this way-the weather--people
and professions. The "old probs''
was very kind to us during the Car
val-for more lovely and beautiful
weather was never my lot to see in
New Orleans, and what can | say
about the professions. First came
the 22d of February and its martial
array, and really it was gallant
show, the splendid Boston Boys and
then the Louisiana soldiers made q
recollection never to be forgotten.
Then Momus and you know how lone
ly she was-tlen King Carnival and
in the meantime the 7lst New York
and Buffalo Boys had come and this
was a big hurrah. Such crowds Of
folks on Canal street and such good
humor, every body determined to be
jolly and to see all that was going on.
The band of the list was magnificent,
by the way. see all the music for
marching is played at quicktime
these days-and now we come to the
day-Mardi Gras-but as everybody
saw the procession its useless to try
to tell about it and really we fail to
discover our ability to properly treat
the Krewe or the Carnival, it did look
as if everybody and his wife had come
to New Orleans, and happiness and
pleasure reigned supreme. The visit
of the military from the North has
done more for good feeling between
the people North and South than
twisting statesmen could or would
have done. So take it, the papers
have told you of the accident to one
of the Boston Lancers-that was a
sad ending to so pleasant trip.
After so much music, parade, ETC.,
the city seems to be dull and is APP
parently taking a rest" Vichy wa
ter is not so much in demand this
week, and 'quiet reigns in Warsaw"
A great many folks from Baton Rouge
and vicinity were here and we note
your item of $4,000 toward paying
expenses; but wait I'LL the capitol is
finished, and the Legislature meets,
we will send some Oft back to you.
AS | write the rain is coming down
lively, and the temperature is cool
in fact, cold.
For news there is nothing to say,
and your chief will give you particu-
larsand tell you about the Press Con-
vcntion. Brother Hyams was little
short Oh history, and he will find it
no joke to write it; but am sure that
| Nestor of the press will be equal to
| the occasion, and | trust the old man
had a real good time.
You will have the Z. S. men of war
on visit. AS usual, Baton Rouge
will be as hospitable as she always is ;
she knows how to make pleasant i'm
pressions upon strangers.
Trusting this will not be intercept
ed, and referring you to that Virgin
ian's toast, SO ably quoted by our
strawberry blonde" friend, | am
yours, DRAGON.

EDUCATION, THE REMEDY.

Blinded by fanaticism and hate,
the Republican party at the North,
after enfranchising the mass Of
liberated slaves at the South, could
see no other method Of reconstructing
its State governments and society it.
self, than by the brutal employment
Of the bayonet.
E'cwill not attempt to recount the
failure of the unstatesmanlike policy
which Gen. Grant parsued with that
heartless stubborness. which consti-
tutes what his admirers have called
his greatness.
For several years the peace and the
progress of the Southern States were
destroyed and arrested by the mad ef-
forts to transfer the sceptre of power
from the hands of the caucasian race
into those Of the liberated slaves and
enfranchised Africans.
The trituration of those distinct
clements brought confusion and dis
order, but at length, as oil floats on
the surface of the waters, the intel
ligence of the superior race, despite
all obstacles, became triumphant.
Profting at last, from the sad ex-
nerience of the past, President Gar
field agrees with the intelligent peo-
pie of the South, that education alone
can permanently fix the status of tie
negro in America.
The President will find no other
difficulty in accomplishing this desir-
able object, so far as the South is
euneerned. than the want of means.
lie nor his party cannot expect that
Louisiana, for instance, whose as
sessed wealth in 1860 amounted to
more than four hundred millions,
from whose revenues public schools
were maintained for her white chill
dren alone, could now, from a tax
assessed on q wealth reduced to one
hundred and seventy millions, find
annually the amount necessary to ed
ucate both the increased number of
white children, besides the entire
mass of the cOl0red.
It was the national government,
who, by force of arms destroyed the
means to disseminate education. 1t
should therefore, fall to the national
government to supply the deficiency.
The mere thought of compensating
tho former owners of the liberated
slaves of the South, is sufficient to
throw our Northern brethren into
spasms. We will soon see how far
their philanthropy goes whenit comes
to appropriatipg money from the Ma
tional Treasury, to educate "the poor
negro"
The Southern whites have accepted
as accomplished facts the changes
that have been wrought by the war
and its more disastrous adjunct, re-
construction. The North must now
see to it that the much abused and de-
spoiled South does not show a more
liberal spirit than itself, by support
ing earnestly the appropriation of
national funds for educational pur-
nnses
