JoENERY. LOUII I The war on our excellent Governor continues, and with a rancor that knows no abatement. It fully equals, if it does not exceed in its bitterness, the denunciations by the press and people T J of the Radical government, when War- - moth and Kellogg trampled upon eve- Th ry principle of public liberty, plunder- ed alike the government and people of' Louisiana, and outraged every senti ment that freemen hold dear. In vain ± do those who esteem Gov. McEnery r point to his honorable record of pubhlie e service, the creditable position.in which the State finances have been placed 1. under his administration, his admirable e levee policy, and the enlarged and lib Seral views he has steadily maintained upon every questio.t4bat has involved either the character or prosperity of the 0 State. When the passions of the hour [ >* shall have passed, when calumny tlas t- no longer a messenger to convey itsr t. poisoned darts, when malignity is ati e lenced, and reason resumes its sway, men will view with astonishment and a feeling of humility the history of this ' Id period, and that a man meriting so much respect and confidense, should have been so unjustly and mercilessly s assailed. We had io particular pre ra ference originally for Gov. MG Enery. N 4d While we had the highest respect for er him and what we conceived to be a just admiration of his administration, " we were prepared to support any wor thy man that the Democratic State Convention niigit nominate. But as as it is now, with such a relentless warx for that is in progress, there is no middle, At ground. It is the duty of every true b Democrat to examine carefully the *e charges against the Governor, and if ithey are false, and without evens the ed shaow of foundation, as we are satis 'is. fled they are, he will be endorsed froa done endl of Louisiana to the ot I Mark that. - - There is no disguising the fact, pi red to all: it is a war not upon McEnery, - ent but upon the Democratic party. N'ear nes ly two months ago we saw this cl rly, and pointed specifically to the fact, ' that was plain to us, that the Picayune L at and its satelites were laboring for the So disintegration and overthrow of the U' ano Democratic party. Day by day, and lace week after week, it has become phiner until no man whose judgment is nbt warped by prejudice but must perceive saa- it. What do these men and these jour ash- nals mean What do they expect to snce accomplish by their persistent attacks Or- upon McEnery t What is to be the. final termination of all their misrepre sentations and violent denunciations of idier hits? They cannot be blind to the fact that he has gained in strengthI man from the hour they commenced these rd in attacks. Men that were not disposed eded to take part in the canvass, now regard I it as a duty. The great heart of the inhe, State is stirred, ahd his friends will go - into the Convantion in numbers andl bon I with an enthusiasm that will silencei etter opposition. It could not be otherwise. n to If it were different, the honest citizens. mis- of Louisiana would be recreaut to that character for intelligence, justice, mag- ! there nanimity, and patriotism for which . ; pa- they have ever been distinguishedl. Itf 1 be- they did not klgnally rebuke such a ( none personal warfare as has been persias vimtently commencedad coitiueald .r ( the last three months, it would be were strange indeed. ` ions; Within the last four days we have much reftted three of the worst charges throw brought against the Governor, an,d have shown their utter ground.essness.' a tne First, the Richarlson forgery case. San econd, tihe misrepresentations in re Sis agard to the levee policy of the (hwer apport nor. Third, the charge that the Gov gi ernor had accepted a directorship in the bank, which the Democrat said was aders. owned mnd controlled by the Lottery those Company. Has any one seen any re o at- ply, or attempted reply, in either Dem at the ocrta or Times to the plain statement of rollis facts that we presented? Does any d by intelligent man expect that a reply, ]Lake that will bear scrutiny, can le offered? But instead of doing so, these journals go on making statements unsupported or the by proof. If Gov. McEnerv has any Ance connection with Howard's Lottery, or' Sany other corporation in the State, can than they not present the evidence upon ,every which it is based If he gave a cast apposi- ing vote to sustain that Lottery, give I stain the people the records and the number char- of the page, so that they can turn to it aud re- t and see if it is really true. Generali next ties will not do. We want not mere Samuel i specifications, but facts, supported by proof. Every charge that has been thus far made against the Governor SOL- has been disposed of as signally as the ones we have silenced within the past week. As an evidence of the ralsity rs since of these charges only one journal in !New Orleans, where General Ogden t, IS6,'lives, and nlt-re he has hosts of per. til I, so:al frieudsh, helieves one word in Eiij al their truth.
