TO OUR CITY SUBSCRIBERS. We will be glad if you notify our office of any delinquency on the part of our carrier, as cu; arrange ments are such that every issue of our paper should be regularly de livered. SY Mfore important engagements demanding the monopoly of the time of Lieutenant Governor Pinch back, the manager of this paper hitherto, he is compelled to retire from net ive participutioun in the work of the LounsuNIx AN. The condact of the business portion of our jour nal has devolved on another, and having secured the services of Mr JOHN C. McLEOD, this gentleman will henceforward be our special agent in this city to solicit subscrip tions, enter into contracts and re ceive amounts due our paper. seThe coalition witn Democrats to upset the State Government is now powerless fur harm. The peo ple are vindicated. They who wronged them in (18, who welded murderous bands together that they naight take life where they could I not get fi ith, were not the class of I men to wi u in 1872 by a union with corrupt R ipublicans. The last is another failure of the slaveholding~' Democracy and will be so recorded, it is not the failure of Republican Institutions, nor of principles. They who joined Carter united their strength 'aith big, for the accom plishment of a nefarious purpose inot one ijotive was a good one. srnanswer to the threats of < assassination made against Lieuten ant Governor Pinchback, we find the old saying: "Threatened men t live long." We accept it, however, as good evidence of what this coali- c tion was c imposed for; it cannot be ,t said that it is composed any longer. t It looks very much like adlead thing C and in a high State of de-composi- t tion. I f sr~The Levee Shed Bill, vetoed by Go'vernor Warmoth and got up t lty THr wig & Casey,~woula have en tailed on the people of this city a curse which would never be re moved. It is no wonder Herwig wantedl the Governor out of the ivav. WliCamap Wfrnioth is a fortress whose flag has never yet been ti struck and which has never bee. u k SUPPLEMENTAL CIVIL I- RIGHTS. The New Orleans Times with all its new born admiration for, and enthusiasm over the better under r, standing of the colored people which the defections of Burch &Co., I enabled it to arrive at, cannot re gard with the least toleration the efforts of Senator Sumner to secure n, the passage thOough Congress of his , Civil Rights Bill, guaranteeing un der the sanctions and immediate eA protection of the United States , Courts and Government the equal _ enjoyment of all public privileges, in all public licensed places, with - out regard to race or color. This p veteran in the cause of humanity draws'down on his devoted head all the anathemas that the vocabulary of invective can furnish, and in 2. abusing him, it is made distinctly evident that it is on account of his determination to legislate clean out of sight the cruel and heartless dis ' tinctions which the negro-hating communities of this country still " keep so prominently in view. Wit i news the allusions in yesterday's Times to Senator Sumner and his work, and then reconcile if possible the tone of this paper with its ap proving, smirking, hypocritical smiling on the affiliation its party recently had with several colored Republicans during the recent troubles. The mutual admiration society so suddenly improvised will soon be dissolved. Senator Barber has a a4 resolution before the State Senate that will split the combination to shivers. v' It will demand the support of all the Republican members of that body, or somebody's constituencies r will know why, and will call down, we expect, the old time opposition of the Democratic members, unless they have resolved to take a " new departure" and support whatever measure the majority of their allies vote for. But of this we have our doubts. We expect to see Sen ators Antoine, Ingraham, Ray, O'Hara, Herwig and others voting with Senators Barber, Kelso, But - ler, Harris, Hunsaker, Noland and . others, while Senators Anderson, Thomas and Blackman will be ar L1 royed in party fidelity strictly "with e in the lines." So let it be. But we hope that of the joint resolution will meet with ready and hearty approval from the respective branches of the Legisla ture and be speedily forwarded to Senator Sumner as an assurance of e the appreciation of his labors and - his cause by the representatives of r Louisiana. Many have been the k petitions and resolutions already t sent to Mr. Sumner, and ours al- C - though probably among the latest, 1 on account of the distractions of t the past few weeks, will not be the I 1 least, on account of its tones and the e - thoroughly representative character C - with which it will be invested. t Since the above has been in type, C we learn that the Senate, yesterday afternoon, passed Senator Barber's re solution, the Democrats absenting themselves at the time of voting. C STHE GRAN Exa, of January 20, I came safely to hand yesterday, and f we hasten to welcome the rara atian. On scanning its columns we scould not avoid a sickening sensa- t Stion at the presenje and the promi- r nence of that disgusting article ' abusing and disgracing the charact- ~ Ser and the memory of a man whose ~ rcareer had been suddenly and vio -lently terminated by the Err's Sfriends. We envy not the man e whose malignity and baseness will permit him to degrade and trample e Son the character and remains of a man so murdered. Supposing 4 *Walter Wheyland to have been all'p that is alleged against him, was he, n therefore, a fit object for the bullet of the assaaain ? Was he unworthy b .to live and defile the earth on which the holy crowd of. Burches and Carters live? If not so, where is the point in your defamation? Oh1 Burch! lie, for shame! But turning A from this nauseous article we come F on a theme of another sort, and N this is the fulsome adulation of the the living, and as a panygeric it is 0 perfectly unique, and of course such ( as only the expelled representative le could write. Mr. Wilson will, with- h 'out doubt, appreciate it.tl WlpThe Fwj announces that it is d the onlyfjive cent Sunday paper. A1St wag sas that as a Sunday peper it p is ,wrth less. as [ THE FAGS AND GOVERNOR WARMOTH. 11 The following reasons explain d why the Governor is looked upon r- with such hostility by the Fags. h Because he vetoed the warehouse ., bill wherein we ten incorporators 9- anticipated one hundred thousand ie dollars a piece. e Because he vetoed the Levee shed is bill wherein we incorporators ex 1. pected to realize an income for te twenty-five years, which would in s itself amount, yearly to a fortune. %l, Because he, with a malicious and s, vindictive intent, vetoed every bill 1 in which we of the Customhouse is are in any way interested, thereby y causing us great discomfort, pecu 11 niary loss, and any amount of un comfortable uneasiness. n Because he vetoed the one million ly steamship bill. is Because he vetoed the nine hundred at and fifty thousand dollars Pass-a l'Outre bill. ,g Because he does not recognize any i "of us" as entitled to the people's t. money without the people's con 's sent. is And for other reasons equally le cogent, and equally mercenary. And now let them pour out some of the vials of their wrath on the Legislature who wont pass these d bills "the objections of the Governor It to the contrary notwithstanding. 10 WThe ex-"Representative" of w Baton Pouge says, in the Grand a Err, that "one more duty devolves t upon us and that is to cause to be ;o swept out of existence that infamous bill No. 31 of last session, by which Da million and a half dollars is to be ºt paid by the State to an unscrupu s lous ring, etc." 2, WeU you know reader, he thought n his crowd were in charge of the * State and had already done every a thing else that had to be done; ,r hence. he said "and the victory is ,s ours, might has given place to right e and Warmoth's bluff game has been defeated." And again "the Grand Era is entitled to some respect for its steady and continuous efforts to accomplish that end." d But see bow well he knew. The , House of Representatives and the Senate and Governor Warmoth are working together in the Mechanic's Institute for the interests of the t State, and where is Burch ? His conduct was of so conspicuously e disgraceful a character lately that the House expelled him, and re fused to reconsider the vote by which he was expelled. And the 1 "one thing more" he had to do has been done already by another hand. The Fag is terribly exercised - over the effort to prove "who called for Federal troops." It is the first time we have seen a set of men hunting approbation, and yet delib erately repudiating the authorship rof one of the most humane, most thoughtful acts of the period. Hosts of people are of the opinion that Fhad the Federal troops not been within call there would have been bloodshed and riot in the heart of our city on Monday. Their proximity and the deter mination of the commander pre vented this. The Legislature have Ibeen meeting all this week in peace and promise from appearances a speedy entrance on the passage of those measures of retrenchment and reform demanded by the exigencies of the case, and the interests of the State. And yet the Fag is "not happy, ' and mighty glads to take the credit of asking for the troops on the sly. If mischievous people even do say that the Fags asked for them (on the sly,) so as to have an excuise of backing out of a position assumed without even the authori ty of the "members," let that pass, "people will talk ;" but for good ness sake stop trying to convince people the Fags did'nt want them, Ibecause they did. Say you did it, and take the credit of doing one magnanimous thing in your career. WAnd so the Grand Duke Alexis, a real prince, the son of the Emperor of Russia ison his way to t New Orleans. The steamer "Great a Republic" has been chartered to I convey himself and suite down to t the river and in a few days the a levee and the streets through which <d he will pass will be all astir with a thousands of anxious ones to look at 9 the illustrious visitor. We have no b doubt that the social, civic, and e State authorities will be amply pro- ti pared to extend suitable attentions p 1and hospitalit~ies to him. i R THAT COMInTTBE. And so the committee appointed n by Congress to come to New Or- E n leans and inquire into our troubles 1 and the management of the New E e Orleans Customhouse, and how by E es the undue interference of federal I d officers, and the prodigal distribu- I tion of federal patronage, all the 4 muss was kicked up may be s- looked for to-morrow. It may be )r as well for commonrense people to n be told that the only *ork these gentlemen are appointed for, and d will undertake, is inquiry into the I matters complained of. They will me endeavor to obtain the best and 'y most reliable information, and by 1- their own observation, be able to 1- arrive at more just and satisfactory conclusions -than they could at a n distance from the /scenes. Their i work done, they will return to d Washington and report to Congress I I- the result of their inquiries. We are thus explicit because a 'Y great many of our people have been persuaded that TH comriFEE con- 1 i sists of three dictators, who, when they come here, will listen to the 1Y complaints of the factions, and pro- I ceed summarily to put out the 1e wrong parties, and put in the right, 1e No such thing. They neither can, le nor will put anybody out, or any ar body in. So possess your souls in patience and don't be led astray by a some people who impose upon your f want of knowledge, and by others I d who, not knowing any better than yourselves, believe, and for inter 'e ested purposes, try to enlist your is belief too. Wait and see for your h selves what this committee is, and1 ae what it will do. l- -________ 1 Tt The Judge of the First Dis trict Court gravely informed the e Grand Jury on, Friday last, that in all the controversies between-the several oranches of our State gov em ernment there had been no breach I of the criminal statutes, and there n d fore there was no neceseity for any t special reference to the matter. 1 rt o There is one thing, however, in connection with the "controvers ' t e that may after all be an appropri e ate subject of inquiry by the Grand r e Jury. It is publicly reported that s a number of persons crossed the 1 e river a few nights ago in skiffs, and a stole from a State arsenal a number of arms; and that a number of men t appeared on the streets of New Or- b leans on Monday carrying the same arms, and declaring an intention to e forcibly possess Col. Carter of the n Mechinics' Institute "and the ap- r proaches thereto." r If the alleged attempt to assassin- L ate a member of the House of Re- a ] presentatives is sufficiently import t ant to deserve special mention, it 2 appears even by comparison that a 1 wbolesale theft of State arms is too. b "Just as we expected. The I ' National Fag now salutes the Thames p "the organ of the mob," as "our a esteemed cotemporary." True is'nt ti it, that "politics makes strange bed a fellows."

Powers. 0I IThe Editor of the Read Ricer sI News ought to be ashamed of hinm- in sell What sort of a character for ol veracity can he expect people to ml give him, when in his paper of Jan- el uary 20th, he publishes in sensa- in tion head lines, " Wax.mz Win- ci LAND) Snor AND LM.E Dv WTARHOTH's til POUCE ?" When he knows that di the evidence taken and the testimo- ba ny of deceased are in direct contra- in diction of his statement.

A POZTIOAL HISTORIAN. d George Alfred Townsend may be r- a tolerably good writer of verses, * but when he esmsys to confine him w self within the limits prescribed for y a F storiographer he is a failure. sl His latest lapse consists in what is .. palled " a'telling cratyon sketch of a 1e notable Southern Executive," in his we correspondence to the Chicago e Tribune, and purports to deal o with e "A BOY GOVERNOR" d " From all that can be understood, 1e Warmoth is the most extraordinary U and precocious leader in the South. d He is represented to be six feet three inches high, of a slender, wiry build, but with a fine Kentucky-looking face, large nose, full at the nostrils, keen, 7 measuring eyes, a superb mustache, a and well-out brows and chin. He is a ir native of Louisiana, began public life o when eighteen years of age, being then a fluent stump-speaker, and now, at 28, he is an arrogant, keen-witted and successful man, worth probably $500, a 000, of which he had accumulated n more than $100,000 in the practice of 1- law in New Orleans. He is unmarried n -is much scandalized on the mar 1e riage point, however-makes his own 1. game and is thoroughly skeptical about 1e men, having a pretty rough school of it in Louisiana, where nearly all the politicians-rebel, negro and northern a, -are insincere, hollow wretches, who T would turn their back upon him, or n Grant, or anybody, to-morrow, if they ly supposed his power was growing less. ir Warmoth's weaknesses are his rash rs ness, boyishness and implacability. a He spends a short time, in every case of difficulty, to effect a compromise; and this failing, he resblves into an ' enemy, and is henceforth anpaciflcable. r- Glutted with power at an age when d men generally are still poring over school-books, or learning some voca tion, this extraordinary specimen of American opportunities in time politi cal chaos has already had an epic career, and lives in much a lonely life -the loss of youth poorly compensated 1e for by premature dominion. His r- courage, mental and physical, has been h fully tested. He will run again, and ) will doubtless be elected Governor of y the State. The impeachment project has already blown over. He has at tached Longstreet to himself, and n Longstreet is, therefore, in peril with the Executive." ' We need not say to Irouisiana I d readers, as well to those who know It anything at all about Governor e Warmoth, that in essentials this is a about as unreal a picture as even a r poet could imagiz.e. We merely n quote it as an illustration of how history is made. e o a The Shreveport Republican1 e makes a cynical old bachelor res ponsible for saying that, "it is the privilege of hoops to surround the loveliest of all things, a'mong which are girls and whisky." t M The Senate appropriation bill proposes to abolish the office of Warrant Clerk, and place the con trol of the fnances in the hands of the State Auditor. The House of e Representatives however seem not a prepared to coincide with this view, r and their action Friday in the elec t tion of J. Pinckney Smith Eaq., is I an indication of this want of agree ment on an important point. FaEEEnuo.-Thursday last was One; ' of the coldest experienced in these parts for many years.

CC . HON. 0. H. BRE WSTF. e It is well-known to our readers , that we are not in the habit of praising our friends or ceesing r our enemies unless for cause, but when we see a public man striving a year after year in the cause of equal a rights and honest government, and a gaining strength at every step, be o cause he puts in practice the prin a ciples he advocates, we feel that we are justified in approving his course. We propose to give to our rea ders a brief sketch of the life of the y man whose name heads this article. i. O. H. Brewster, the newly elected e Speaker of the House of Repre It sentatives, was born in Citaque " county, New York, in the year 1882, " and at the age of six years was taken by his parents to the State of e Illinois, where he remained, with n the exception of a few years spent it in the Rocky Mountains, until the d commencement of the late war. ,- Immediately after the first battle d was fought, he left his family at his I residence, in Montgomery county, d went to Springfield and enlisted as a private in Company K, 33d Illi t nois Infantry, was wounded twice >f during his service, and so complete 1e ly disabled thai it was found ne n cessary to give huim a discharge. o On his return home, he was r elected 1st Lieutenant, and imme Y diately after advanced to the rank of Major of a regiment, which was held in readiness by the Governor P of Illinois, to be used in case of in vasion or disturbance at home. n This position he held until the close L. of the war, when he determined, a according to a desire he had long 'r felt, to make his home in the South. " He, accordingly, came to Louis iana in the fall of 1865, and engaged in planting the following year, on e the Culberteon place, Walnut bayou, d Madison parish, in connection with is his brother-in-law, Jerome Taylor, n Esq. d Our planters remember well how 'i disastrous the year proved to the t planting interest, and it left Mr. d Brewster, like thousands of others, with scarcely a dollar to call his own. But while struggling with the inclement season, the children on that and the adjoining planta r tions were not forgotten. One of his first acts was to secure the ser vices of a first-class teacher and open a free school-the first ever r established in that parish f r colored children. Finding himself unable to secure supplies and pay the rent demanded - for another year, be concluded to remove to Texas, but while waiting 8 in New Orleans for a boat, he be ' came acquainted with one of the most esteemed citizens of Morehouse parish, Robert Waltman, Esq., and I was induced by him to take charge f of his plantation, located five miles from Bastrop, where he removed with his family early in the year of ~1867. The untimely death of Mr. Waitman, only a few months after, terminated the engagement, and Mr. Brewster then took up his resi dence in Onachita parish. Reduced to extreme poverty, but not discouraged, he went to work with a determination, wcll-known to many of our citizens. The thought ot taking part in politics hftd never entered fiis mind, and his only am bition was to secure a comfortable home and living for himself and family. The first election under our pre sent Constitution came on, one of the candidates for Representative was killed in Morehouse pa sh, and on the morning of the election Mr. Brewster's name was plr 'md on the Sticket, and men were voting for him, Sin all parts of the parish, before he Swas even made aware of the fact. SWhen informed what had been done, She positively declined, giving as a Sreason that an older citizen more Sable than himsuelf should have the I honor, and it was with the greatest 'reluctance that he allowed his name Ito remain upon the ticket. After ] Icalling to mind the fact, that the Democratic party was running a colored man who was unable to I 1read or write (Henry Burns), he 1 conclnded to olet the work of his ( friend's remain, and was consequent- 'I ly elected, elected by an overwhelm- ' ing majority. Soon after taking his seast, he Ii was appointed chairman of an im portent conomittee, and has ever h Isince been one of the most active ti members in the cause of honesty a and justice. Holding to the good old prindlple, that legislators should sa represent the whole people, he bag I constautly usedj his inismese for the U good of all, without reg friends or foes, race or party, Is [Here are references to Af Brewster's opposition to the 4 g nooga Railroad, Slaughterhouse0 it Emigration Bills.J g In this way, we might go tE Rl the whole of his first term ii 4 ,d Legislature, and show, from t s- debates and newspapers, that eg,0 i- measure got up for the benef re speculation, to rob the citieu, e. me the constant and determined a- position from Mr. Brewster E 1e when it was proposed to drlair e. age for the extra session of i a and extra per diem the year e- his vote is found recorded 1e it.

State, should be the choice of tta le voters of Ouachita for re-electua is The manner in which he mand the last campaign, the speechs s has made, the work he has dad j. for the Republican party, andy ee re-election by an overwhel¢ e- majority last fall, is too well-knoo e- to be related here.
