Oar subscription list is increasing more rapidly than at any other time since the first month of the existence o! the Enrim tjcan. Every day brings large accessions to our mailing book, not only in clubs but individual subscriptions. We intend before next January to have a larger circulation than any other paper in the South. Our Weekly is everywhere received with great favor, and as many of the terms of sub scription expire the renewals come in with very complimentary notices, and protest ations from onr friends that they •• would not be without it.' 1 The fact is the people of this State feel that they want a paper that is ever ready to stand up for their rights and to advocate their real interests, regardless of the opposition such advocacy frequently meets from those who are wed ded to old abuses. Such a paper is the Retoblicix, and the people know it. THK SUCTION In another column we publish the order of Major General Buchanao, announcing the result of the election on the Constitution, and for members of Congress. No report is made of the result for State, Legislative, judicial, parish, and municipal offices, sad wc arc ieft in doubt whetherthe votes are still being counted and recounted, or whether the matter is to await the action of Congress, or the result of Impeachment, or the good pleasure of the Major General Commanding. We respectfully suggest that the interests of the State require that the result for State and Legislative officers at least ahovld be announced at the earliest posesible moment Oeoanization or the Board or Ar rRAisiRS.— The gentlemen recently selected by the city and the Commercial Waterworks Company to appraise the vaine of the assets of that corporation, met last night at the office of the City Attorney, and proceeded to effect a permanent organization. On motion of Mr. T. H. Hatch, one of the ap praisers on the part of the Waterworks, Mr. A. K. G. Parker, appraiser oh behalf of the city, was unanimously choson chairman of the Board. This graceful and unexpected compliment was acknowledged by Mr. Par ker tu a short but appropriate speech of acceptance, in which he returned thanks lor the confidence thus shown him by gen* Usman, u majority of whom were entire We congratulate the beam upon having secured for their chairman an energetic and public spirited citizen who will never be found wanting to the performance of any duty pertaining to his position. Mr. Freret, one of the appratetM for the company, was cboeen Secretary.

HlR headquarter* will be at Colombia, the authoress, tho "Life ot A* I bj its t PBOOXE TAB ELEMENTS OP PROGRESS. In our issue of Wednesday we pointed out in a general way the great backward ness of the South, as compared with the North, in her material improvements, and especially ia the cew methods of agricul ture, improved implements, and wonderful labor-saving machines, which hare cum* verted farming from a drudgery into al most a pastime, and made it on the whole the most profitable business in the country. We alpo mentioned the fact that the re markable progress of the North, as com pared with the South, has resulted from precisely the same causes as tho immense average progress of all civilized countries during the last fifty yeare compared with the slow pace at which the world formerly jogged on from ceitnry to century Whoever will carefully study this matter will see tbut the time and attention of the great body oi the civilized portion of man kind are no longer devoted to the useless abstractions, the frivolous and profitless pursuits, the seisms and broils, to the petty feuds and almost perennial wars that fifty years ago filled their thoughts and absorbed their best energies, even if they did not consume their substance and waste their lives. We remember well a religious contro versy ia our own neighborhood in Centra! New York, thirty years ago, that divided the congregation into hostile factions, caused the church doors to be barred, and led almost to open hostilities, alienated families and kindred, and for years ab sorbed much of the time and thoughts of the community. Not until three years ago did the congregation again unite and con sent to devote the time and meanB that could be spared from their every day pur suits to the practical wants of education, local reforms, and the care of the orphans. And wbat was the cause of this long standing quarrel? Why , one part of this Dutch Reformed congregation believed literally in the doctrine of Election and Predestination, while the eeceders main tained that although all were condemned to eternal punishment, still some might possibly be saved by availing themselves of the means of grace. The most superficial observer can not, on the contrary, fail to see that in the North, and in the most advanced European coun tries the time, the thoughts, the energies and accumulated means oi multitudes of people which were utterly thrown away and wasted fifty yearn ago, are now largely devoted to scientific and utilitarian pur suits. and to those useful mechanic arts to which we are indebted for out know ledge of the secrets of nature, our mastery in part of the elements, and our ability to avail ourselves, even imperfectly, of those great physical forces without the aid of which man is weak and powerless and helpless; without which he remains, in fact, a barbarian. So much from a comparison of the stir ring times in which we live, with what oc curred fifty years ago. Now, ii the same comparison be extended between the North and the houth, it will be seen that like cases have produced like results. The North represents the progress made, espe cully in material interests; the South very nearly represents the condition of things that existed half a century ago. Slavery, it is true, has been abolished, but the plant ers, the dominant element of Southern so ciety, still think, and speak, and act just like slaveholders. We have to contend against the false theories and practices that have survived the fall of the institution it self, and still act as a great moral force in the minds of the people. In the North the hard foil that fifty years ago weighed down upon the shoulders of the people has been lifted from them by the skillful application of scientific knowl edge and mechanic arts, and placed upon wood and iron and coal. If the Yankee has not yet quite succeeded in hitching his wagon to a star, he has managed to make the invisible but mighty forces of the material world, such os steam ani elec tricity, do the most and the hardest ef his work, and thereby has found time for onl ture and enjoyment. Northern towns and cities are for the most part hives of in dustry where the labor-power of the work ing clans is multiplied a hundred, and per haps a thousand, fold by the use of water power, the steam engine, and all manner of time and labor-saving machines. The same thing is true of the cultivation of the soil. Wheat and corn are raised almost entirely by machinery. The hay crop of the North, which Ls. and always has been* worth more than the annual product of cot ton, sugar, and rice in the South, now requires only the supervision, not the labor of man. The seed is sown with a drill; the grass is cut by a mower, spread, raked, pitched upon a wagon, and from the wagon Into the bay mow by means of ingenious implements. Now so far as these great mutual inter esta are concerned what is the actual con dition of things in the South ? The cotton gin is the only labor-saving machine ever really adopted by the people. That was inseparable from the growth, even the very existence of the cotton interest With the ption of the cotton gin the planters confined themselves almost exclusively to brute labor. They did not believe in educated labor, and the result is now every where visible. Ask any dealer in farm implements aad ho will tell you how diffi cult Ivfs to Introduce any improved ma chine.

W/» will hereafter point out in detail the mistakes of the South in these now all im portant matters. We will discuss one by one her false theories and erroneous prac tices as to the ownership and cultivation of the soil, as to her present labor system, the movement and sale of her crops, etc. We will show what magnificent results would surely follow the introduction of new theo ries and practices, and especially such as have been tested by experience, and have produced such splendid results on Northern farms. All we wish to do now is to indi cate the simple fact9. Is it at all wonder ful that there should be overflowing grana ries. wealth, powre, culture, leisure, art, enjoyment in the North ? Bhall to* not also have them here? DAKGERTOTHE 80UTH. Every right minded man who compre hends the real condition of the Southern Slates and their necessities, will admit that a failure to convict President Johnson would be calamitous to the loyal men el the »South, and the worst possible thiDg that could happen to the rebellious them selves. Had it not been for the encourage ment held out to disloyalty by Andrew Johnson, the reconstruction of the Sonth would long ago have been an accomplished fact, and on a basis that would have brought peace, order, and prosperity. It is the delusive fate of Southern rebels never to be able to comprehend the real situa tion, but to scornfully reject terms to-day which next year they will regret were not accepted. Thiä has been the whole history of reconstruction. The real friends of the South admit that Andrew Johnson has been its worst enemy, even while flattering the people with hopes that can never be realized. While advocating the President the »Southerners place them selves in a false position. They have from the first looked upon him with suspicion and distrust. What good has he ever done them ? Their pretended adhesion to him is only the last in their long list of mis takes. The order, peace, and prosperity of the South depend upon Mr. Johnson's con viction. If Senators at Washington com prehended the situation as we do in Louisiana there would ;e no hesitation as to the verdict. MORE MÖRDERS. We are reliably intormod that the Hon. W. It. Meadows, of Claiborne parish, was killed a few evenings since near his own door by disguised men who claimed to be long to the Ku-Klux Klan. He left his house lor the purpose of feeding his stock, was shot, and died immediately. Mr. Meadows had been a soldier in the United States army, and represented his parish in the Constitutional Convention. He was au ntelligent, quiet, peaceable gentlemen, but had excited the enmity of the rebels of his neighborhood by being active in favor of the ratification of the Constitution. We are also reliably informed that Cap tain Twitchell, of Lienville parish, started to go on horseback to Sparta. As he did not return at the expected time a search was instituted which resulted in finding his horse aud saddle, bat nothing was seen or learned oi the missing man. Fears are entertained oi foul play, as Captain Twitchell 7 » life has been repeatedly threat ened. Those at all familiar with the Con stitutional Convention can not have for gotten a quiet, unobtrusive gentleman, with the scar of a terrible wound on one 9ide of his face. That was Captain M. H. Twitchell, from Bienville parish, who gal lantly fought and was terribly wounded in the I nion army for that peace and protec tion which his government has failed to give him. Lawlessness, violence, and murders are increasing in our country parishes, and some remedy must be found, and immedi ately, or the result will be too horrible to contemplate. Surely it is time the Major General commanding this district awoke to the necessity of prompt and energetic action to preserve the interest) of Louisi ana, and the peace and good order of our State. PUBLIC COLORED SCHOOLS OF NEW OR LEANS. Mr. E. Stoddard, School Director of the I'reedmen'a Bureau in Louisiana, has just made a very complete inspection of the public colored schools in the city. Accord ing to the report submitted to the superin tendent of education, Major Chase, there are in New Orleans eighteen schools of this kind, conducted by fifty-two teachers and attended by 4403 pupils. It will be seen that there is an average of eighty-five scholars to the teacher, more than twice as many as can be properly cared for. Want of proper room and badly ventilated apart ments are also complained of. The schools are, however, well supplied with books, Charts, etc. Most of the teachers are complimented for their assiduity, and the pupils are mak ing commendable progress. Altogether the prospect of education to the colored children of New O •>* *q , ur _ aging. The neglect of the city authorities to make the necessary appropriations is given as the reason why the number of colored schools in New Orleans has not been increased. These eighteen schools •wed their origin mainly to the Freedmen-s Bnreau, and we are happy to mention their continued usefulness and prosperity ng the many benefits to the people of Louisiana from its existence.

The anxiety and unoertalnty which hang like an incubus over the community de mand immediate and decisive action from the court of impeachment. Thi9 is no time for dallying, no linn* for sickness ; for the peace of these Southern States is swaying in the balance. A noth mi Southern Ht story op thk Unit ed States.—Wüi. Ï. McDonald und J. 8. Blackburn, purporting to reside in Berry - ville, Virginia, have sent us a prospectus of a new school "History of the United States'' "the first ever written in the South," and requested from us a favorable notice. The prospectus embrace* a preface and extracts from the forthcoming work. Were it not that there is every appearance of sincerity about this production, we should conclude that it was intended as a clever burlesque upon many of the now existing histories of this, that, and the other, from a Southern standpoint It appears that the controlling motive for writing thiä book is not pecuniary advantage, but to »how that the South has '•been hoodwinked for so long a time in the matter of grammars and readers.-' Th*) authors, for ihere appears to be two of them, have made the astounding dis covery that Abolitionism in its most viru lent form has for years lurked in the pages of the puritanic*! reprints of Lindley Murray. Olney's geography and Daboll's arithmetic were perfect magazines of in cendiary sentiment», but so covertly in troduced that it required the acumen of these modern sages to find it out. After disposing of the whole library of puritan histories, including Hale, Sparks, Bancroft, Peter Parley, and the like, w ith obo grand wave of their pens, these Berryville Xene; phons proceed to give us extracts from such a history as Southern youth should study. The extract« before us treat of the founding of Jamestown, -The Beginning of Negro Slavery," -Slavery the Natural State of the Negro,' "Origin of Abolition ism," "The Struggle Between the Sections,'* The Hartford Convention," " Jefferson Davis," *'Tbe Boat at Manassas," "South ern Women," "The Battle of Shiloh," and Death of General Johnson." There are a great many excessively stupid things in these extracts, but nothing new that Ls true. We recommend these gentlemen to invest their means in a modern hoe, and turn their attention to raising onions. Litera ture is evidently not their forte. Wc shall publish to-morrow a communi cation from Judge Weinple, of Mansfield, Louisiana, explaining the action of the citi zens of the parish in reference to Repub lican organizations and Union men there.
