The Decision Next Tuesday.

There remains but a few days in
which the Democracy Of Louisiana
may SO utilize their resources and
concentrate their strength as to Sc
cure a,victory on Tuesday next, by
a majority far exceeding that OF any
previous election in our State, and it
is a few days which ought to be
diligently employed. The only dan
ger to be apprehended, proceeds from
that over.con6dence which inyaria.
bly, renders a vigorous concentration
Of effort more difficult, and lessons
the general interest Of the party in
a contest, Of which tie successful
result is not esteemed matter Of
doubt. 1t must be recollectcd, how.
ever, that whatever the disagree
ments or internal dissensions Of the
opposition may be, there are men
upon the Republican ticket, and a
partisan leader at the head of it,
who will spare no time, labor or
expense, not only 10 rally to the
polls the very last man OF the Re-
publican party, but to make every
possible inroad upon the, Democratic
vote. The greater our expectations,
the less our endeavor-has become
almost a political proverb; and we
might also add that the more san
guine VIC. are Of victory, the more
determined will be the effort of the
enemy to take advantage Of Gar
easy-going and self.satis6ed uncon'
Germ. Therefore, while reasonably
anticipating a majority largely in
excess of any heretofore won in the
political history of the State, our
Democratic friends should enter the
field with the energy and zeal tha'
they would bestow upon a more
doubtful race; not with the view te
achieve simply a victory, but with &
heroic resolve to make that victory
as commanding and impressive al
possible, and an event of such pre-
portions as to insure it national at
tention and national Importance
Nothing is wanting to a sweeping
triumph, such as will seal the hope

WASHINGTON, d. c., April9 O., 1883.
Editor Abbeyiile Meridional:
The deadlock in the House on the
direct tax bill practically put a stop
to all business in that branch of con-
gress after Tuesday. Even all night
sessions failed until every parlia.
mentary expedient was exhausted to
bring the members to a vote. When
ever a quorum was found to be lack
ing, the assistants to the Sergeant at
Arms were sent out ia search of alb
sentees, and when found, they were
brought up before the bar Of the
House to furnish their excuses for
absence without leave. Many Of the
members were taken from their beds
at midnight and later and carried
before the House, where they were
made the subjects Of mach sport by
the other members.
The work of the committees was
also seriously interferred with by
the deadlock, as the members, when
a short recess was taken, were too
fatigued to attend the meetings and
none of the committees had a quo.
rum for business.
Special days had been assigned
for consideration of bills reported by
certain committees, but as the legis-
lative day of Wednesday, continued
from day to day, aud nothing but
the direct tax bill under considera-
ton could be called up; the commit.
tees lost the days assigned to them,
and will find it difficult to get other
days fixed. as the assignments will
have to take precedence.
Up to the present time the House
has considered and passed some:700
private bills, but it is probable that
only a few more. if any, will be
passed at this session. The calender
is 50 crowded with other measures
of public character that very many
of them will fail for want of time,
and as between measures that effects
only one person and those which
effect many constituents, the mem-
bers give preference to the latter.
The committee on private claims
alone has had over 1000 bills re.
ferred to it., many of which will
never have go much as a report
made thereon. The ommittee. how
ever, has a live, energetic chairman,
and with very few exceptions, indus
trious, hard working members and
so merltorious bills as a rule, do not
remain long in committee. Where
they fail Of action is in tho House,
where so much time is lost in de.
bate.
So far, only three appropriation
bills have been disposed of, and
that fact has given rise to the report
that the others are being held back
for the purpose of antagoniSing the
tariff bill with them. The appropria'
ton bills must have consideration
otherwise the wheels Of government
will be stopped for want of the
necessary lubricant, and. so they are
) always entitled to the right of way.
: 1t follows that if Representative
Randall is so disposed he can at the
proper time bring an appropriation
bill before the House, and SO b ave
every thing else stopped for its con
sideration. As, very much time will
be consumed in discussing the tariff
bill and not much be left fer con
sideration of other matters, it will
be seen how we'll founded are the
fears of the friends of tariff reform
at the power held by the high tariff
chairman Of the appropriation com
mittee.

The Growth Of the Country.

The Philadelphia Record says: "The
Census of 1896, preparations for which
are already being made, promises to show
in the United States population OF
more than 70, ,0Cv, 900. The population
in 1870, according to the census OF that
year. was 0,155, 7S3 persons OF whom
43, 475,S40 were native and G,G7P, 943
foreign born. The natives had increased
0,4St, 69S from the figures of 1870
80, 9g1, 142-or 31.5 per cent. The for
eign element had gained more slowly,
however, bringing the percentage for
the entire population down to 30 per
cent. The same rate of increase applied
to the Census of 1880 will give an
increase of 15,O46,GSY persons during
the ten years ending in 1890.
"The immigration between 1870 and
1880 was COM aratively light, only
1,112,714 persons having come to this
country during that decade. For the
past few years, however, it has been
Unprecedented. The imm grafton since
the last census has been as follows:

Climatic Influence on Social Traits.

A French publicist calls attention tc
the curious regularity in the geographical
distribution of crimes. The prevalent
standard of morality, it seems, is to a
large extent question of climatic con-
ditions Low latitudes and low morals,
however, are not always concomitant.
Thus habitual imtemperance prevails
chic Y north of the forty-ffth degree
parallel in Europe and the twenty.tifth
in America. Sexual precocity increases
with the distance from the isotherm OF
Stockholm, the courtships of the short
lived pigmies of the Polar regions being
quite as expeditions as those of the West
Indians Creolcs. Sicily, too, anticipates
ilc legal minimum Of our marriage Gus
toms by several years; but the ne p us
ultra OF precocity seems to be evolved by
the climate of Southern Brazil, where
marriage of boys in their earliest teens
and girls OF ten and nine are nothing
unusual. Thrift is virtue of pastoral
highland regions, while the maximum
of financial extravaganza is reproach oil
large seaport towns. Brigandage
fourishes chiefly in Neville plains; Tunis
and Turkestan in the East, and the Rio
Grande border lands on this side of the
great ferry. The time may come when
accomplished attorneys, in their plea OF
eytenuatug circumstances, will urge the
unavoidable influence of climate. -

CuriOsitleS of Appetite.

In the desire for change in articles Of
food, some strange things have been
swallowed. Such, for instance, as Cleo
patra's famous pearl solution, which she
quatfed to prove her regard for Marc
Antony; the similar draught which Sir
Richmond Wilmington had prepared fol
an entertainment he gave to King Henry
"; the diamoud which Sir Thomas
Gresham had dissolved in wine, and
drank to the health of Queen Elizabeth
when she opened the royal exchange; !;
and the love pledges of their own blood
which the young ga;lants of former day.
used to drink. The claims OF such artl'
cles as foods are, however, shadowy,
and, if they may be admitted, so ought
the penknife, the ounce of tin tacks and
innumerable sixpences, which the typical
boy, from time immemorial, has shown
prediction for swallowing.
One of the earliest aristocratic recruits
to the stage, Betterton's successor, Bar!
ton Booth, relation Of the Earl of War
rington, and not far remote from the
title" had such an unappeasable appe
tite that his wife had often to "order
