At least,., so tihin Paris P'"juro diowrlfbes iin. and onl the whole It mry be sald that life is wortlh living t,o Mr. ,r)'oey. ABs the Ncw York World observes: "A french critic is a joy forever when he assaills I an English suije.;t.." The critic of /le Ilitm Sa.Ub icaffords an instance. In the English itut e.thibit Is a trra cotta of Thomas Carlisle by the axtlet r. E. Bo'hnhm, which the critic pro -noun "the best specllmn of the work of I'rThomas (Ciar'lisle" in the gallery, adding tlhat t Is "a statue representing a man sealY' and lothetl in a dresslig-gown." 'lThis delight ful critio ()nfl),s'as with a frankness that could not pomsibly Ib so delicious in any mie else as in a Frenchman proudly declaring his absolute) iguorancue of everything outside of France, and that he (ldoo "not know what is the position of M. 'I'homas Carlisle in Eng land, but in France he would its plated in the first rank as a sculptAr." This same critic pronounces a high opinion of "le l.uttour," by M. Wrestler. We seldom sHn anything so thoroughly and touchingly ingenuous as this outside of the dramatic columns of the New Orleans Tlin's, or in the allusions of that paper to the peculiarilles of Now Orloans habits and customs. A New York letter to the Chicago ,ournal says the Republicans of that State are unani- I mous for Grant in 1580, and that "the D)emo crats are likewise coming out for him, and the fact that the Surn newspapor has opened Its guns on the 'silent man,' and assorts that whatever com(s he must not be electhx I 'rel dent again, indicates the fear which now pus seses3 the soul of his enemies." The Jotrnal's corresipondent t(hen goes on to enumerate the causes of this fleling, as follows : Southern war claims, fear of a S4enate and House both contro lltd by ox-rebels, and the growing st4lrit of Communism, tAogether cause both lRepublicans and I1)o(n 'rats to desire the strong government which Gen. Grant can give the country. Said one of the loading Democratic oflicials of Now York to me a few days since: "T'he context in 1880 is going to be between Tilden and Grant, and I am for the latter, because I want a government which will protect my family and property from the (ommuni'ts, who are apparently going to disturb the co-untry for some timn to cxlne. A very lortintout query for this very po ouiiar Democratic oflicial to propound to him solf would be but, who is to protect him and his famtily against such a government as h11 yearns for ? As one of two gentlemen that had made a bet on a horse race remarked to a third party, who propo'sed to hold the stakes, "Yes, I have no doubt you will hold the stakes, but who will hld you ?" The New York lerald thinks the JI-publi cans have ruined themselves by refusing a cordial ace¶ptance of Hayes' Southern lpoli 'y. Had they done this, a proper and honest toe publibca organization could have been ostabl lished in e\ery district in the South. This is now impossible, anl the Herald thinks "the wisest cour,1:e would be) to make no nomiua tions at all, but to declare themselves ready .everywhere toA support the best of the two candidates. This would encourage the so called 'inIdependent' movemelnt in all the Southern States." There is a worlf of suggestion in this, and we give our pt)ople warning in time that they may guard against any such covert introdue tion into the field of wolves in shoop's cloth ing. Let them keep their eyes well open on al ~t"i'ndependents" and see that the greed for . ffice does not come in at last to rob them of 1ruitl of a long deferred victory. Bill rlbed these independents about right " wi. e made one of them sollioquizo thus: ''S tsome personal friends, and I can git the nirgers and scalawags, and you may go to the devil with your convenshun. You see, they control the scalawas, keepln' 'em In oflice, and the scalawags controles the niggers, and they are mrixed tup hash together and call it ilndiie lendlonen.' A DROVE OF 800UNDRELS. Wei have seldom sen anything more brutal In the examlnation of witnesses than the man nror in which (tov. Cox bulldozod E. L. Weber last Thursday. Mr, Wcbor is not, It is true, a ma.n of very high moral perceptions nor savory political record ; but that is no excuse for the nude and unf(eling assaults of the ( lio gentleman upon the character of his dead brother, and we instinctively sympathize with the reswntment mtalif estel by the wit, ness. The zeal of (ov. Cox, however, to prevent., or discredit, the iis(hclosulre of the villalnie s of his party In LoulsI aria has defeatl.t his purpose and provoked the very result. he desired to escape. The testimony of Mr. Weber given before the omrn itt, T'hursday and Friday is of t,he most extraordinary nature; and yet there is not, an Intelligent ct'lit7li of Loulslana who does not know that every word he uttelred was true. "If there was villainy." said Weber to( (Ien. (lox, "it was on the part of John Sher man and the, visiting stateer.len." On Friday heIsaid to the (bovernor, "youl have rulined me, andi now I will ruin theni all. I II anm to go down, they shall go down with me, by God, I I am a rascal they were all rascals atlof theoimi." Ity all of therm Mr. Webler lmeant .John Hherman, Stanley Matthews, the sanctiflel ,Jo Htevensnml and the olher visiting states mIen, tdogether with I(ellogg, Packard, Mad. Wlls, Tom Anderson andll the other wor thies who stolo the electoral vote of Louislana and at'emlptll to steal our State, government. Mr Weher did not utter a mnore furious denuncia tion lof these men. IBefoi're he used thisie epithets, and after he had iloni so, he related facts which are within the knowledge of all well InfolrnInl len In this SlateA, and the lucre recital of which was ciompetent to brand lupon the brow of every one of tlahe gang, fronm .1ohn Shlermlan down to the dlrtiest, sneak anilg the : "' tovlNInejI !" (iertainly We)ier was hibiself one of the par ty. But that d(hon not weaken his tshimony. The rascalith's he test llles toe notoirtl)ls at, the time; they were exlpoesil by the Louisiana nIesr ; they were denollncdi throughout the HLate and throughout the whole country. 'i'hey could not be proved tby direct testimony be cauise the gang were enjoying their pilunder and the fruits of their villainy, and none oif thiln would "squeal." iBut it was impossible to always pro . serve the harmony of such an infamous coim itdnatlon. Indeerd, It is wonderful how suchi a gang of rascals emblracing men like John Sherman, and creatures like ,J. W. Jones, the professiolnal forger, so long kept faith with eanch otiier. We were certain, how ever, the bIreak-lup would conmo so)ner or later, anti It has come now. Wedier, in expos ing the rascalities of his associates, has rnt, sparedl himself; hi has toild the whole story, and though the Relilpubtilcan press may try to dliscrellt hinm; though they will turn their mud batterI.es upon him wllth a view of shielding the bialance of the gang, the damning record calnnot be expunged ; it Is the truth, and the country will accept it as the truthl. Ind(iel. we are certain that if Gov. Cox were to ex pose the secret fislings of hi own heart he would express the conviction that the preten tlons of I'Pakard were based oil villainy and that the counting of the electoral vote of Lou isiana for Hayes was an act of damnable fraud, disgraceful to HIayes, disgraceful to the Republican party, to Congress, the Elec boral Coimmission, and the whole country. Nay, we think we would tind that lie is now asharllnI of his party and cause and disgusted with the gang of thieves, bribers, bribe takers, forgers, blacklmailhrs and swindlers who for eight years ran Louirlana on the rtcorstructlon policy. Mr. WO er bI R not spare i`m11Hel, lie alte only in palliation of his part In the rascality he detalled, that he was a young man and that he had boen tempted and corruptedl by t the loaders of Gov. Cox's party. The plea In abatemenlt is a gotsl one. Weber and his brother and .. E. Anderson were yet young men when (Gov. Cox's party of great moral r Ideas began to reconstruct Loueisiana. Those young men were, perhaps, not possessed naturally of a high sense of Integrity. But under healthful conditions of .(sidty they t might have lived honest lives and made gRood and useful citizens. But the statesmanship of the North dedcided that Louisiana had to be plundered and humiliat,d, and they sent down men like Warmoth and Kellogg to do it; hero they found for the work men like Tom Anderson and Mad. Wells; and when the carnival of political debauchery began these swept into its vortex hundreds of men like J. E. Anderson and the Webers, ttunpting them with office, debauching them with plunder, until they became capable of any crime short of murder. The heads of these men wore turned; they were Infatuated with plunder and power. We do not blame them now, We trust and believe Mr. Weber is sincero when he pleads that he did not real Ito the enormity of the crimes he was perpe trating in the interest of (ov. Cox's party of great moral ideas, and that so soon as he did realize it he determined to make a clean breast of the whole vile business. But the, history of that party in Louisiana has Ibmn made, .nd no power on earth can un write the black, damnable, flithy record of vil lainy. Nor can the John Shermans, like the smaller men, claim any excuse for their part in it. The merciless persecutors of a State; the debauchers of young men; the apostles of the Evangel of perjury, forgery and rob bery, though they are In powver to-day, when they fall, as fall they must, they will go down despised by the people as men who have dis grachd their country and their generation. OUR OCARITABLE INSTITUTIONS. The special report of the-Grand Jury of this parish, relative to the condition and manage mont of the Insane Asylum, the Workhouse and the Boys' Hlouse of Refuge, is a remark able document to emanate from a body of such weight in an enlightened and Christian city. If that report be a true and faithful account of the condition of these institutions there has been base, brutal and unqualified crim inality in high official quarters, and the honor of the city and the needs of humanity require that the guilty officials shall be ex 1 posed, and, if there is any law which can reach gross dereliction of duty and cruel and in human brutality in the discharge of high t trusts, punished and disgraced. From this report we learn that the insane patients in the city asylum are in a condition t, is which no humane or judiolous man would keep his dogs or his cattle. The beds of many of them are unprovided with shoots or mos- 1 quite bars; 'the mattrasses are torn and so filthy that they omit a loathsome stench. The white and negro inmates are corralled to geth.r, and no sufllcient iieaslures have been taken to separate the mnale and female pa tients. At night there Is no female attendant in the building, and the unfortunate female patients are left to the care of, and hence arte e'Xpxonsi to, male ermploy)'i's. This Is ,c'r tainly a loathsome picture,. These unhappy people, who are more in neel of phys.Ieal comforts and mental rillef than a;ny other class of people', are kept in ai con dition which is better calculated to drive sane people mad than to restore to rnoental health the insage. The Superlnt'nde'nt, the report, informs us, seems to) have done the best he crouldl with the means at his disposal ; but he has not been properly supported or aided by the city authoritime. A highl tribute sl paid to those two noble ladies, Mrs. M. A. Tarliirn and Mrs. 8. N. Motoly, who have done all in their power and thatwas a greauttldal -Ia, re hIlve the misery andl dlestitutlun of the iper creatures whom thl city authoritie+s are' charged with literally abandoning. And, heroin we have a rnellanrcholiy illustration of the difference between the average poirll tician and Offlce se.ker and holder, and the exaltel benwovol,'iit anld tbautiful devotion of wonmeln. If this report dotes not spur "the clly authoritles" t' taike some step to renl'er the asylum less a dis grace to the elvilizatlon of Now Orleans than It is now, then there irnllnt 1. little shanm lia there seem to. bte true hulllmalnity amllongst the responsible parties. Walving just now any 'onrru nleirts on the' cIity Workhouse, which costs lIth, ttxpayers of this city $540 per monlth, andl serves merely its a stable for horses anl prostitutes, we (come to that porttion f tilr report whic'h treats of the' Biys' Iouiise of Rlbfutge.

The boys at ,' conflnel in dunglerns for days and weeks, and fed on brai'il aindi water, at tlhei pleasure of the worthy emploli'yees. 'Thei+y ar'' beaten with a heavy hicko,ry stick and many of them now bear the bruisi'4at'dl arks of tihe merciless ii tagellatlons they have r'ec'ivel. 'Th' stick itsielf was the morist loquint witness of the inllhurmanl conldulct of the superiin ntewnlent. of this institution and hls appointee, stalrul, .s it was, with the bMo'l of tth h'elplss vie thtis whose defenseless bolllw hail writhed an.d qullveresl under its strnok -. But beating the boys was olil y one of the amlusemlents of the gentltemlnrl who riun tile Boys' Hlii.se' of Itefugie. Whern that sort of pastime grew monotnlout.s, they diverted themselves iby mtaking the hbnys run tlhe' gauntlet, an enrlrtainment In whichl the' victim is hoiirrily beatetn and brulilsi, and not unfrequently c'rippl'd. Aih, we fancy Mr. l)ivecrl'aux's assiltanits on oine of their jolly days, with a few friends perhaps to enjoy the occasion with thiemn, laughing hilariously as some, little urchi runs for dear life between the rows of other boys, who are whipping, heating, kicking and punching hin as he flles terror-str'icken down the line shrieking with pain andl horror. (;Gsl G<ei! Is this a Christian city, and this reiport of the Grand Jury true? The report of the Grand Jury says that M r• D)evereaux denies any knowlwialg of the cruel ties practiced by his assistants. If the Super Int6endent's proltestation be true, then ho is a sweet, simpi-heartedl little angel, and the politicians who have provided for him by giv ing him his present place shoulld put him out , to Ibe nursedl andl suckled Iiy a wet-nurse. I]ut ,Mr. I)De'r.lrcu.r is a man who has madrl one I reputlation in this f/great city n a detertlirc. The manner in which this institution is now conducted. is only calculated to brutailz,' its inmates, to destroy every humane and gin Srous sentiment in their minds, and to pre- I pare them to become, as they grow up, thieves, tramps and murderers. lBett!er turn them out into the st rects. Even the rn they will have a botter chance of developing some sentiment or principle of humanity and truth than they have within the walls, where they see, feel and learn nothing but brutality. The object of this Institution should be to educate these little outcasts in the ways of truth and virtue, and make goxod citizens out of them. The institution, therefore, should be in the charge of a man of large and en lightened views; a gentleman, a Christian and a humanitarian. Why such a man is not in charge of it, Is a question the answer to which we propose to elicit. The Superintendent is the mnmedliate party to censure, but the crushing weight of the responslbility for these inhuman cruelties rests upon the heads of the city authorities, and the people will demand to know why a good and worthy man was displaced fron the management of this institution and a police detective appointed to it. THE SO IALISTS' PLATFORM. The second and third articles of the Social ists' platform may be considered together. They are- 2. Sanitary inspection of all conditions of labor, means of subsistence and dwellings in cluded. 3. Bureaux of labor statistIcs in all State~. as well as in the national goverrnnent. The ollicers of the same to be elected by the peo ple. Underlying these measures is a sort of fetish belief in the wisdom and power of government. Public offincers, who themselves are not able to preserve their own health and that of their families, led by the powerful motives of self preservation and conjugal and parental love, as soon as they are clothed with official au thority, with no other motives than that which actuates other public officers to do their duty, and with no other knowledge or wis dom than they had before, are at once able to preserve the health and wealth of every mem ber of the entire community. Is it not absurd to suppose that a large corps of inspectors and statisticians could pro duce, any such results (Government (above all ra representative elective form of government) of all human instrumentalities is least adapted to the minute and parental care of the health 1 and wealth of the members of society. If there Is one evil above all others from which the people suffer, it Is that the government sup ports t1o) many non-producere, who constant ly craand who contribute nothing directly by productive labor or indirectly by lucr.sceld ,security tI, the, real wealth of the coimm unity.
