Fhe Death of jefferson Davis.

N. o. TimessD Democrat The
greatness of Jefferson Davis
stands confessed, as now we
write, III a peoples tears. Te-
nacious of principle, the slave
Of conscience, resolute, yet filed
with the inspiration that comes
from unyielding belief, the giant
figure of the ex-P Presidency of
the Confederacy stalked across
The nineteenth century as some
majestic spirit, that, strong in
the consciousness of its own
right-doing, scorned the plaudits
of q world, and lived only that
Id himself duty might be deified.
Such was Jefferson Davis, and
such will history declare him.
His was an eYentfuI life,
Thrice IN his fourscore wears
was the courage of jefferson
Davis tested in the fierce cruci-
bic of war. And thrice did he
come forth a hero, his glory
brighter, his name more lumi-
nous, his fame an everlasting
heritage to the country that
gave him birth. No cause e'er
had a grander champion, no peo-
pie a holder defender, no princi-
pie a purer victim than the dead
statesman, soon to lie i'm yonder
burial ground, with whose BODY
are e%nwrapped the hopes and
memories of the South he loved
so well, Tin honor now he rests;
d stricken people mourn him :
the hush is like the void which
comes when a strain of music
dies.
The character of Jefferson
Davis must awaken fierce con-
tFoVerSy. There are those too
warped and narrow of mind and
heart to do him justice; there
are those too near and dear to
the Cause that was loved and
lost to see a spot to dim the lus-
re of its chief sun.
But history-cold, calm, inn
partial, unbeclouded history
will do justice to the great dead.
Not wholly free from that asper-
ity which firm conviction begets,
nor yet capable of truly estimat-
ing the grandeur and nobility Of
those who differed with him,
Jefferson Davis will ever stand,
for rigidity Of belief. for m
sWerving devotion to principle,
for dignity of bearing in the.
hour and home DC desoiation,
for q simplicity that was sublime,
and far an honor that was i'm
pregnible, as one of nature j
noblemen, cast in the mould of
that finer ambition which makes
sen great and pure.

The Good Work Goes On.

N. O. Times Dersoerat.
st. Landry is making for her
self a reputation. Yesterday
three more of the Coulee Croclle
midnight marauders were con-
Vieted, and will go to the Peni-
Tertiary. Five of these crimi-
nails have now been pronounced
guilty by their peers, and it is
more than probable that they
will be made to suffer the full
penalty of the law.
This is the first pronounced
check given to regulationism in
the territory where it has been
rampant. Elsewhere, for crimes
equally as heinous, there has
been a miscarriage of justice,
but 81. Landry now calls a halt
in the midnight murder business.
Men who perpetrate such foul
crimes will be brought to speedy
punishment, and the lives Of ia
offensive and laW-abiding citi-
zens will again be safe.
Not st. Landry alone, but the
entire State and the cause of
good government everywhere
are to be congratulated upon
the happy issue Of these prose-
BUTTONS. The people looked to
she trials of the Conl6e Croche
regulators at Opelousas as an
excellent opportunity to assert
the majesty and supremacy Of
the law. The result has been
all that could be desired. The
guilty have been convicted. md
will suffer d well deserved pun
ishment.
