CHAPTER XIV.
NE. YRR1oN AND COLONEL 1oErNa.

IL.
It is best for the reader to keep all
the time we'll in mind, as he follows
the thread of this story, the historical
peculiarities that blend with the 70.
nance affecting the lives of the peo.
pie in whom we are interested. The
growth of Louisiana from q colony OF
reckless military adventurers up to
the stature of a great State has been
singular instance OF evolution.
Iberville and Bienville planted the
seed of strange race on the gulf coast.
Crozat came with his contract to dc.
moralize, and Law with his scheme to
ruin the colony. Gold fever, the
fever of conquest, the thirst for dis.
covery, the longing for lawless power
and romantic glory possessed the
grim, fearless, conscieuceless adven-
turers. Now the French held the
government; now the Spaniards took
it; again the French; anon the Span
iards. But the French and the Span
iards were not alone. Anglo-Ameri-
cans oame slipping into the colony,
and most of these were restless, reck-
less, hungry fellows on the lookout
for chance OF fortune. Wilkinson
came and Burr came and Claiborne
aud troop of their kind, all Of them
burning for power and the glory thero-
OF, money aud the glitter Of it.
Men who lad been political schem-
ers, revolutionists, plotters OF treas.
on, assassination, usurpation, were
self-exiled to Louisiana, to escape the
rope, the Ak, the guillotine. Deposed
mobiles and princes came here, aud, in
sheer desperation, took up the life Of
the gambler, the smuggler or the
pirate.
But there was tue other side OF the
medal; for opposed to tho dark and
turbulent majority stood the saving
remnant" a strong minority OF refined
people, whom the exigencies of life
had stranded on this sweet, slumber-
ous, liowery shore, between the warm
gulf stream and tho stately Mississip-
pi. Some OF this remnant were peo-
pie who had tlcd from one or another
European codutry for what would
have been glorious patriotism il suc-
cessful, although when colored with
failure it looked like hideous crime.
Wrecks OF true greatness lay stranded
along Royal Street and bourbon and
Carondolette, side by side with vulgar
iotsam and ietsam OF the great Sea OF
Chance. True, it was often hard to
discern the rotten from the sound; for
the conscicnceless, red ''-"1ed culprit
in exile was inclined to draw about
him much the same cloak of reserve
and mysterious dignity worn by the
e1patriated prince or general whose
only ofreuca wes the exalted love OF
country.
