But in No every one is privileged to see shoot with perfect impunity, and if any doubt. it need only refer to the almanac. M5 icr the stars. Chalmers, of Mississippi, has Intro CInongress a resolution creating a new committee, to be known as "the Com on the Improvement and Commerce of PsM lasippi river and its tributaries." If committee does not interfere with that 4,*s Mississippi levees, it will be a valuable to the interests of the South and West. committee on levees is a strong one, one ash we can place the fullest confidence, 2 It would be both unjust and unwise to ap any new one interfering, in the least those subjects over which it has juris or impeding in any way the great 0 am work it has before it; if, then, this committee does not interfere in these srsit will be welcome. people of the South and West have schemes and matters in relation to the pp river, schemes which cannot come the Levee Committee, and it would be .beter to refer these matters to a special mince on the river than to half a dozen ones.

Both of the Georgia Senators map~yof the leaders in the Deni pryfavor it, while only a few per-t moeJuaestiwg ones hes a A WTol GROUP. Mr. Evarts, in a conversatioan with a Herald d representative, said a day or two since: "This Administration has before it three sL things which it means to accomplish. First, to - nationalize the Republican party; second, to resume specie paymeuts: third. to emancipate the action of the voters from e control ofthe - office holders." The Secretary's first and third interests us just at this moment. How does the Adminis tration propose to nationalize the Republican party? How does It propose to emancipate 1N. the action of the voters from the control of the office holders; and, as far as the Admin - istration has gone in this business, how has it adhered to the famous enunciation of the President, that he serves his party best who serves his country best? Mr. Hayes would serve his country best by throwing overboard all the corrupt and dis reputable leaders of the Republican party in the South, and he would best emancipate the voters from the influence of the officeholders te by appointing men to office who are honest and capable and who are not professional or machine politicians. Let us review his ap pointments in this State, and see if they ac cord with his own professions or with the programme of his Secretary of State: The President has been in office nearly nine M. months, and during the whole time the Federal offloes of this State have 1*. been in the hands of a most cor rupt and obnoxious ring of machine pol che iticlans. The Returning Board, in short, has, es- so far, run theCustom-House. Therewe have ier had King, the alter ego of Anderson, Tom the Anderson himself, Mad. Wells, Kenner and to their satellites. A few days ago we heard er- from Washington that the President was dis ce, gusted with this dirty crowd John Sherman he had put on him, and was determined to take Len the Louisiana appointments in his own hands. 10- We were not so enthusiastic over this news as he were some of our friends. There was nothing de in the manner In which Mr. Hayes had stood by the Returning Board to justify any very strong conviction that he would appoint any ed man to a position in this State who was not of th the stripe to reorganize or to attempt to reor at ganize the Republican party on its old basis. The issue shows that our distrust was not groundless. Judge King has retired, and it a looks as though the Influence of the Return er ing Board has been weakened. But who has been appointed to step Into Judge King's a- shoes? Col. Effingham Lawrence, the alter >n ego of Mr. Warmoth. Against Col. Lawrence n personally we have nothing to say; neither g- did we have anything personal to say against o, Judge King. But there is not a man in the ° State who does not know that Col. Lawrence e Is the friend and partner of Warmoth, and that Lawrence means Warmoth just as clearly as m King meant Anderson. The significance of this appointment is more evident when we observe that Col. Jack Wharton Is Marshal, Gen. McMillen Pension ,n Agent. and that Geo. Sheridan is to be Collector 'e of Internal Revenue. The noble group was .r not complete, and the dull sense of the public y did not recognize the subject until the master t placed the central figure and unveiled his e wonderful creation. Lawrence, the alter ego 0 of Warmoth, Sheridan, Wharton, MoMillen! a Angels and ministers of Grace defend us! h Here we have the combination which shone in t constellated glory over the mildest and wild est saturnalia of debauchery which ever dis graced civilization, and at the recollection of which the flush of burning indignation man y ties the cheek of every Louisianian. It appears then that the Administration proposes to nationalize the Republican party in Louisiana through the instrumentality of ,. Warmoth, and to emancipate the action of the v voters from the control of the office holders by organizing in this State a corrupt Federal 1 if ring of machine politicians and officials. [f Not many months ago when Warmoth was ,t under a cloud in his own party and Packard, e Pitkin I& Co. were running the Custom- 1 b House machine, he exclaimed, "Give me but 4 e the power those men have got and by G-d I 1 will carry this State any way I please." In the process of nationalizing the Republican party the President has given the shrewd and audacious carpet-bagger full possession t of the power he so coveted and which he boasted he could use so effectually. Poor King was but the figurehead of a cor rupt and unscrupulous ring, and poor Law e rence will be but the feebler figurehead of an 1 eequally corrupt but probably shrewder coi- 1 8 bination. Warmoth is now the* head of the 1 SRepublican party in Louisiana, and with the Iopening spring, his far reaching, busy, bold and unacrupulous machinations for the or- I -ganization of the negroes for the campaign will be visible in every part of the State. -HI the President meant well he has made ai mistake. THE MOFFET REGISTER. The saloon keepers generally evince a very decided hostility to the proposed Moffet reg ister tax. They seem to regard it as a dis crimination against their business, and an extortionate tax. We regret that the saloon men have taken this view of the subject; as a general thing they are liberal and public spirited men, and there would be no justice in a law which discrimated against them, or overtaxed them. The Moffet register law does not do this, and it is not intended to do it. Whisky is one of the luxuries of life, productive, in truth, of less good than any other, and it should and must bear a very heavy tax when the public burdens are heavy. The general government lays extraordinary duties on all imported articles of luxury, and States are justified in levying high taxes on domestic luxuries, such, for instance, as liquors, on the retail sale of which there are very large profits. The real and personal property of the State is taxed 14Y, mills on the dollar, the highest rate of taxation in the Union. When property bears such a weight of taxation the sale of whisky should bear a full proportion of the pub lic burden. The Moffet register is no more a discriminatoin against the saloon business than the heavy tariff on silk goods is a discrimination against the silk manufac ture and frade. Our saloon keepers complain that they can not stand the tax. We think they are mis taken. In nearly all the Northern and West ern cities drinks are retailed two for twenty five cents, and there can be no doubt that large profits may be made on liquors at that price. We do not think any of our saloons would break in receiving twelve and a half cents each for the drinks they sell. The proposi tion to impose this tax has met with such general favor throughout the city that its adoption by the Legislature is a foregoneoon elusion. Its popularity has not grow out of i dispositicm to dioeri s agat tbs . n t t die nR'9 ºtr "dst but the burasi ci taxation or the 'payment of the state debt. "t'he reduction of the rate of taxation on property and the gradual sinking of the pub lic debt will inspire foreign capital with con fidence to seek investment here and thus do much to revive the prosperity of New Orleans. The adoption of the Moffet register system will meet both these ends, and in that way will make large returns to the saloon men themselves. Full returns from all the Mississippi coun ties show that the Legislature elected No vember 6 stands as follows: Senate-Dem ocrats, holding over, 15; elected, 19; total, 34. Republicans, holding over, 1 (F. B. Pratt of Madison); elected, 1 (G. W. Gayles, colored, Fusion Republican candidate from the Twen ty-eighth Senatorial District). In the House eleven Republicans and Inde dents were elected from the following coun ties: Adams 1, Bolivar 1, Greene 1, Hancock 1, Iseaquena 1, Marshall 3 and Panola 2. The Senate contains one colored man and the House four-three elected on the Demo cratic ticket and one as a Republican. This House will only meet once, as the amend ment favoring biennial sessions of the Legis lature was carried by an immense majority; the amendment abolishing the office of lieu tenant-governor was also carried, although by a smaller majority. On the county tickets there was consider ably more independent voting than on the legislative tickets. In Rankin, Kemper, Wil kinson and elsewhere independent candidates for sheriff were elected, while in Lincoln, Warren and other counties the Independents secured the treasuryship. Generally speak ing, however, the Independents are about the worst whipped party that ever entered a political canvass. The present Legislature of Mississippi is the most Democratic in the Union. Georgia, it is true, has only one 1eW publican in the Senate, but then it has twenty Republicans or Independents in the House nine more than Mississippi. The Picayurne, under the heading of Plautor racy, h$ a long article In which reference is made t4!the power of money and the aristo cracy of wealth. Where the Picayune discov ered the word Plautocracy, as applied to the so-called moneyed aristocracy, must greatly puzzle the readers of classical history, who remember that Plautus, the Roman actor and playwright of his day, was so poor that he had o hire himself to a baker to turn a hand mill to grind corn. Had Plautus lived in this age he might have become as great a Plutocrat as Boucicault, as he was the author of 130 plays, must of which he wrote himself, which is more than can be said of our "Plautus." He might, also, have served the useful part of giving our contemporary of the Piayune a more accurate knowledge of the Latin lan guage, whereof he was regarded so thorough a master that the grammarian, L. Adius Stillo, remarked that the muses would use the language of Plautus if they were to speak Latin. The person who doubtless furnished some thing like the word of which our own mala prop of Camp street makes so ostentatious a, use in her grand leader of yesterday, was another sort of a fellow from the tutelar deity, whom the Picayune assigns to our New York millionaires, and to whom it pays such high homage. It forgets the well-known charac teristic of Plutus, the god of wealth, that he began his career by distributing his favors only among the meritorious and the good, a feature 4 his administration, which would hardly jhistify the recognition of the New York millionaires as of his autocracy. The Morton Monumental Association has been organized, and the late Indiana Senator is soon to have a grand monument in Indian apolis. Indianapolis, as yet, boasts no statue; Washington is scarcely worthy of this dis tinguished honor, and the long line of Presi dents who made this country grand and pros perous are entirely forgotten; the discoverer of America, the pioneer of Indianapolis, the great men of this country, are not deemed worthy of an honor that is about to be granted to a man of whom the papers of his own political party could say nothing more favorable than that he was "a bitter partisan but honest." Exactly nine years ago, it may be remem bered, a Tweed Monumental Association was formed in New York city by the admirers of the Boss. He (Tweed) had beautified and im proved New York, they said, and he also was a great political leader. These admirers col lected some money and came to the Boss for a slight subscripticn to the monumental fund. Tweed's answer has become national-"I'm no-fool." And thus the Tweed monument fell through and the Boss soon after found himself in prison. Would not the Indianapollans do better to honor undoubted patriotism before they glorify partisan hate and malignity ? Or is this a country that recognizes an unscrupu lous politician as the highest type of a man and patriot. DIED. WAGNER-On Thursday.
