Nicholls TI is the Chief Executive. It is a complete pl government in full operation. It is tb the government, by the admission of all parties, which alone can enforce the lb laws and insure peace and order in the State. The mockery of government at the f St. Louis Hotel offers no serious ar obstacle to the operations of this gov- of ernment. Packard's bogus Legislature, which has never yet had a quorum of elected or returnal members, has been bi for some time engaged in a more play or I pretence of assembling and going T through some of the forms of legislation tr to amuse a crowd of negro loafers and ia policemen. As for the pretender Pack- w ard, there is now none so poor as to do w him reverence. He has not periormed ' a single valid act as Governor of the I State. He is as naked of all executive garments, and as destitute of all execu- b tive powers, as when he first came into , this breathing world. He freely admits r, that he is hanging on, merely, in com- e pliance with the demands of his party h friends in Washington, and that if he d cocld obey his own impulses, he would P abandon the position. He imagines that his ease is identifld with that of Hayes, and that If he lets go of that shadowy governorship he will be re garded as a traitor to Hayes and the p national party. He has delivered him- 2 self into the hands of John Sherman, a Hurlbut, Howe and others of the Con- it gressional Committees sent to this a State, and does their bidding not cheer- ri fully, but with that implicit and un- d scrupulous servility which has charac terized his whole course. These virulent and unsorupu lous politicians, who have no in terest in our State, are the p principal instruments in impos- I ing upon Louisiana her present chaotic t condition. At their solicitation Gen. F Grant has maintained the ridlculous a anomaly of aa statal quo, which ob structs all efforts of the only real gov ernment of the State. The continu ance of this condition is a great wrong and evil. It leaves our people virtually without law, or government which can enforce its authority. Is this a fulfill- I ment of the constitutional obligation I 'f the Federal government, to guatan tee to each State a republican form of government? Is the "statu q11," a dual government, the republican form of government, within the words of the constitution? Is it not, indeed, a reproach to republican gov ernment that any State should be left in such a condition for weeks, and I it will be for months, should the deter mination be carried out of making the solution dependent upon that of the I electoral issue. The duty of Congress and of the Pres ident, beyond question, is to proceed ptly to relieve our poople from their present condition and withdraw all sanction from the wretched faction which maintains the sombi)laInce of an in eurrectionary government in our midst, which has no power to enforce the laws or protect the public interests, and which is flt only to vex the State and paralyze its energies. Action in this mat ter ought not to be delayed. The high est public and private interests require that prompt relief should be given us from the present vexatious situation. Under our State constitution, the Leg islature can sit but sixty days; more than half of that time has expired. The Legislature has been actively engaged in the herculean task of preparing statutes to reform the innumerable abuses which have crept into our politi cal svstem and taken root there. It is greatly obstructed in this work, and the execution of its laws is prevented or 1 delayed, by the obstacle created by the interference of the Executive. Should SCongress allow such a condition of affairs to continue for a month, for a week. or a day, in any of the States of this Union? THE RADICALS DISCORDANT. Rows In the Radical Caucuses. [Couriet-Journal.] WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-Tho Senate Republican caucus this morning had a row. The Morton and Sherman crowd carried the day so far as to stock the commission by naming Morton and Mc Millan. who had voted against the elec toral bill, and Mr. Edmunds, who had voted for it. Mr. Edmunds declared that he would not submit to the treat ment, and refused to serve. The result was thatej a subsequent meeting Mr. Edmund arried his point, and Mr. Frellnghuysen who had joined in re-. porting the bill, was substituted in the place of Mr. McMillan. The House Republican caucus also had a delight ful rtw over this same issue, between the friends and enemies of the electoral bill, and the result was a drawn battle. he happy family in both branches is an refore in a state of dislocation. by t the The Sthe law hen the the ptly tthe this .p. oiid Aat *=$n Obdurate ConIVICts [Evening Post] request of the chaplain of the tts State Prison, a vote was en among the convicts to it was desired that voted I Pinohbask's paper ezpain the report of the Dinkgrave Oommittee, that none of the mem bers of the Legislature received $250 to 'ote fur Kellogg, In this wise: Every member brought before the committee swore that Kellogg had not paid him $250; but not one would swear that Kellogg had not promised the money. The facts seem to be that Kellogg promised the money, and afterwards dt olied to pay. Who can, then, accuse him of bribery 7 The Misslesippi papers complain that the short I crops in lower Mlssissippi are owing, in large part, to the open lihfe that plantations now enJ"y C Ivery plantation is fast becoming a miniature i town, with its rioting, its bar-rooms and disslpa tions. There was a day when plantation life was t really rustic and Arcadlan; but now, politics, whisky and licenso have found their way there. There is a store and several bar.rootds on every place; crowds of tramps and thieves pass along the roads and stop a day or two at the place, and everything tends to make the laborers forget that there is such a thing as work to be done. It would certainly be to the benefit of all if there was a lilte more privacy in country life than there Is now, and if the negroes could be protected I from the gamblers and thieves who go prowl ng I around the country taking the same advantage 1 of them that the Radical politicians have done. The interesting news that famine is likely in Gores is circling through the Louisiana payers, but we see it nowhere stated that famine is a great probablity in the upper river parishes. The destitution among the negroes there is ex treme. The crop made will average only $10 to the laborer. The planters cannot mate a cent; but worse than this, it is herd to see how the negroes will get enough to live. They save nothing; they can raise nothing to eat. T'here was a time when cattle could be raised in these parishes, but lRepublican politios have long since put an end to this. Cotton is about the only thing to be raised, because cotton is diftlonlt to steal. Although one-third of the Radical vote of the State comes from these parishes, the Radical party has never sought to correct this growing evil. It id to be hoped that our present Legislature will do thise do something to make the raising of cattle and produce ps.sible in the negro parishes of Louis iana, as it is possible in Mississippi. The Sientltibi Amnricra gives a long account of the New Orleans, the first steamboat running on I; the Mississippi river. The boat was launched at Pittsburg in 1811 by Mr. Roosevelt, acting with f Messrs. Fulton and Livingston in New York. She ran between New Orleans and Natchez, mak ing twelve trips a year. The passage down re. B oaired only two or three days, while that up the river, owing to the current, was seven or eight F days. Seldom less than twenty persons went on I the down trip, and il'ty to a hundred on the way up. The price' from Natchez to New Orleans was $18, from Now Orleans to Natchez 125. We not:co a strange canti n in the country papers just now in the matter of editorials. theso have almost altogether ceased. It is tiot to be wondered at in Republican papers, who, foresel ing the recognition of the Nicholls gov ornment, prefer to say nothing against it just now. As for the Democratic papers, the tardi ness with which news travels in Louisiana has taught them to be cautious of what they say editorially. Almost all of them were taken in by Grant's celebratel setaou quo dispatch to Augur. Like Packard, they almost universally mistook its meaning, and, suppoe ng it to be a recognition ot Packard, burst out in fierce philippics against it. Next morning came the intelligence that the dispatch had been misin terpreted; that Packard was not to be recog nized. Alas ! that editorial was already up and in type and printed. The consequence was that these papers came out with an editorial saying that Grant had recognized Packard, and with the news that he had not. This little mistake has had the effect of putting them on their guard. Louisiana history is so uncertain, so unstable, that it will not do to shout until you are quite sure you are right. The l)ake of Mecklenburg-Schwerin aroused the enmity and denunciation of the Chicago pa pers, several Sears ago, by a rather singular ordonauce concerning criminals. Ho had found it an expensive thing to keep his pickpockets, murderers and thieves. They were, indeed, costly luxuries, end the prince saw no reason why they should be fed and clothed out of his privato purse; so he calls them up and en era inlto an agreement that he will release them rom his dungeon and pay their expenses if they will only leave his dominions, never to return, and un lir the penalty of hanging if they did. Chica go was selected by i in as their future home, prob ibly because he thought that they would find a pl~asatrt congenial so :iety there, and a fine lot of emigrauts were shipped to that interesting city. Such was the conduct that aroused the by-no means mild denunciationis f the Chicago pa pers. We are afraid that our New Orb ans pa pers will have to do the a ame by some friendly cities along the river. Vick.burg and Natchez are just now ,courged with an epidemic of bur glaries, robberies, etc. They have found a large police force useless, unab:e to chick thi-, and are now promising to compou:nd with the thieves if they will only leave. Thry do not say exactly whe re they propose these shall go, but it is only I too evident that they wish New Orleans to adopt I and protect these unufrtunatos. The Natchez SI)eDemocrat coolly prop ,ss ."that a flat boat bo purchased; that the citizens turn ou!lt in,;sse, on some given day, scour the whole town, capture every man who can't show a good account of bow he makes a living, put them all on this boat, give them a week's rations, tow the boat, so loaded, out into the current, and then turn it loose, without oars,"for New Orleans. As much as we need emigrants, we thankfully de cline this cargo. We have g)t our own share of criminals, enough in fact for a city twice our prese ,t size, and want none of these carpet baggers.
