BAXNAOLES AND 80RHERABB.
Our worthy and wise neighbors, the
Picayune and nimes, are In sore distress
over the defeat of the proposition to
levy a tax upon this city for the benefit
of the New Orleans Paciflo Rallway.
Beading their diatribes yesterday morn
ing against those who were so besotted
with Ignorance as to entertain an opinion
op this question different from that ex
pressed by them, one might be led to
suppose that those two great journal
istio luminaries hold a monopoly of the
intelligence, patriotism and honesty of
New Orleans.
The .Pcavune and Times for twelve
months or more have been the violent
it not vigorous advocate! of the proposi
tion to levy this tax, without having, in
all that time, printed a single intelligent
argument in its favor or a single article
displaying any comprehension of the
railroad scheme and its connection with
the railroad system of Texas. Yet "vast
load cf barnacles," "chronic obstruc
tionists," "sore heads," "grumblers
blind to their own interests," are a few
of the refined and courteous epithets
they yesterday morning bestowed upon
those gentlemen whose views on this
subject were so sound in principle, and
whose influence was so large, that thby
overwhelmingly defeated a proposition
to the support of which these two ex
beedingly wise, virtuous and progressive
newspapers have been trying to rally
the people for over a year.
We should have been glad during the
past fou' years to witness on the part of
our able contemporaries some exhibi
tion of this new born virulence toward
the enemies of Louisiana. A degree of
courtesy, at least equal to that which
was bestowed upon Kellogg and com
pany, is certainly due the gentlemen
who, in the advocacy of what they held
to be right in this controversy, carried
with them an overwhelming majority of
the community.
The advocates of the tax asked the
Legislature for an appeal to the people
through the ballot box. We supposed
they believed they were right in asking
for the tax and were willing to accept
the judgment of the people. The
decision of their own tribuanal has been
against them. Is it in good taste now
to abuse and villify that tribunal ?
Were the people eee only to be trusted and
praised in case the thpeople, right or
wrong, conceded their demands ? These
gentlemen are estopped from question
ing the propriety of the result of Fri
day's election, unless they are prepared
to concede that the argument the DMa.
OtlT made against the tax was sound,
and that the proposition to levy a tax
such as this is not a proper one to be
decided by a popular election. If the
people have committed an error and
done a foul wrong, as the Piayune
and limes affirm, to a great enterprise,
are they not just as likely on any simi
lar proposition to cpommit an error and
do a foul wrong to tohe taxpayers ?
eed, it seems to us that this violent
of those who opposed this tax is
unseemly in the Times and Picayune,
and at the same time a positive con
damnation of their own policy,, and
that of the other advocates of the tax.
WhIt a feasible scheme is adopted to
baild ihis great road, and one that does
,ot_ olate the plainest principles of
ament and the sacred rights
py, we will ho will be the
and most friends of the
"the , sore-heads
*rse," or eir virulent but
by theptodigad
lVy of arsed by4he am|
tieoty of . of °Ame8lasa
method. sal ed iattion,
1is 4a ivtal and aggressive
to da4 r to be long 'represid.
Du 'aie past hundred years ;a
hnftb of effot bais been made
to arry out this" captivating scheme,
and the present Meslcain move
oelt,rheaded byh en. Vaughn Thomas,
a somewhat noted filibuster and a re,
puted born revolutionist, is a quite
v rous materialisation of tis great
A£merican idea.
Our Washington correspondent, whose
racy letter will be found in the Daeo
oarT this morning, is no doubt oorreot in
saying that the only dimoulty in the
way of Gen. Thomas is the want of
money. An abundance of well drilled
and stalwart men may be had both in
the North and West. But to equip and
move an expedition large enough to
effect a lodgment upon Mexican soil
would require, we fear, a much larger
sum of money than capitalists are will
ing to venture upon a desperate and un
certain enterprise.
Mexico, with its mines of gold and
sliver, its fields of sugar and coffee, its
spices and gums, its rich woods and pre
oious dyes, would be as splendid a prise
as that which England finally won
through "that little sally of Olive from
Fort JC. David." But Olive was the
agent of a rich and powerful company
of merchants and capitalists, and the
power of all England rallied to the sup
port of the scheme which his little sally
inaugurated. Gen, Thomas is backed by
no capital; he is likely to meet with the
op position of the United States govern
ment before his plins are perfected, and
if he is the voluble talker and fanciful
theorist our correspondent represents
him to be, we doubt if he possesses those
solid qualities which made ChOlive a sol
dier and a conqueror.
The plan of operations so graphically
sketched by Mr. Buell, in his letter to
the DtxoonAT, is certainly a very
attractive one; and there is no doubt
that a real leader could organise as
large an army of the best soldiers in
the world as would be necessary to casy
it out, if the needed funds could be obh.
tained. Whether this shall be done or
not, will depend upon the qualifications
of Gen. Thomas for the arduous but ad
venturous business he has engaged in.
If he has the indomitable energy, per
severance and courage of Walker, and
the unfaltering faith in himself which
inspired that gallant but unfortunate
leader, whose life was a heroic poem,
there is no' reason why he should not
succeed.
The tendencies of American thought
and American progress are in accord
with his purpose. Mexico, Central
America and the West India Islands,
now the seats of an imbecile and degrad
ing civilliation, under whose shadow the
energies of man seem to decay and
Christianity to rot, ought to be the
abodes of the highest American civ
ilization and the largest commercial
wealth. The arbitrary and unwise
policy adopted by their Spanish dis
coverers and conqurerors, and rooted
in their systems, has been for cen
turies a blight and a curse which
can only be exorcised by the force of
arms and the infusion of Anglo-Saxon
ideas and vigor into their governments.
After these magnificent regions had
been discovered, the tendency of emi
gration from France and England was
towards them. But the jealous and ra
pacious Spaniards prohibited all immi
gration therein except from Spain. The
most rigid and intolerant regulations
were made with reference to the com
merce of these colonies. Spain alone was
allowed to be the beneficiary of it. Even
the commercial intercourse of one col
ony with another was prohibited. These
are but a few features of a policy which
naturally retarded the advancement of
civilization and the development of the
resources of the regal countries to the
south of us.
The Spanish population was small and
in time the vast numerical superiority
of the Indians overcame the law
through the operations of which the
superior race absorbs the inferior and
produced the mongrel race which now,
with the pure Indians, inhabit and
curse those regions. The hardy and
progressive emigrants from England,
France and other European countries,
prohibited from entering the rich colo
nies of Spain, planted themselves in
other latitudes, and out of a more
sterile soil, under a more inhospitable
sky, and in the face of savage and bar
barous foes, created wealth, civiliza
tion and commerce, while the tyran
nical and intolerant policy of the Span
iards blighted, ruined and cursed the
richest regions upon the broad earth.
The American idea of the conquest of
Mexico, manifested in our numerous
filibustering movements, is the out
growth of a natural tendency to re
volt against the anomalous condition
of things which the Spanish policy
and the imbecility of the original and
mongrelraces have established in the
Spanish American States. It has been
said with much truth that Turkey is
an anomaly in Europe. It may be also
said with truth that Mextcanism is an
anomaly in America. Our progressive
civilization is the necessary foe of the
revolutionary spirit and reactionary
tendencies of Mexico, and sooner or
later the stronger and truer civilization
will force its ideas upon the weaker.
Such a consummation would be a bless
ing to the world. Around and in the
Gulf of Mexico lie regions of boundless
fertility, possessing mines of gold and
tslvrar, andeopable, with their wonderful
tie of a h r il1ons of
lo. Those houoheek ' .ho4 be
at the countries upon the Mediter
ranean were ia the days qi EItgyp~a nd
Syrian glory. But we see them occu
pled by an imbecile and degraded race;
wasting and neglecting the bounty of
Providence; their misery increased
by the ambition of incompetent
and unsorupulous chiefs, who live
on the revolutionary tendencies of
the ignorant and superstit.ous people.
Amerlean courage, American enterprise
and American ideas can reclaim those
glorious regions from their degradation
and convert them into an Empire suoh
as the sun of Heaven has never yet
shone upon. Whether Gen. Thomas'
enterprise is tending to this most
glorious end or not, the destiny for
Mexico, Central America and the golden
islands of the Gulf, herein outlined,
will in time he consummated, and the
dream of the unfortunate and unhappy
Maximilian made a glorious reality.
THE POWER OF THE PRESS.
The Picayune and Times claim to be
very great newspapers; they are more
or less venerable, and both are presump
tuous; both have the largest circulation
in the Southwest; both have great vigor
in suppressing their opinions, and both
would have the world believe that they
exercise a great control over public
opinion in Louisiana and New Orleans.
We are pained to say that the facts do
not bear out the last assumption, unless
the assumption be that measures of
public policy are popular and powerful
in proportion to the degree of opposi
tion these two able journals make to
them. Perhaps this is not the highest
quality of force and influence in public
affairs, two papers, each with the largest
circulation in the southwest, are ambi
tious of exercising; yc i its probably
better to be influential in this manner,
than not to be influential at all, and so
in justice to our worthy neighbors we
shall show that their combined influ.
ence in this line is as great as that of
the DahocabT in the opposite line.
No measure that the Pwa!yune and
Times have advocated in the last
eighteen months, to go no further back,
has been successful. In 1870 both vio
lently opposed the impeachment of
Kellogg, while the DEMOORAT, then a
new and almost unknown journal, ad
vocated impeachment, and the House
Impeached.
For months, and even up to the assem
bling of the last State Convention, the I
Picayune and Times advocated a third
party; the DEMOURA'T appealed to all
parties opposed to Radicalism to rally
under the Democratic-Conservative
banner for the salvation of Louisiana.
The DSMOORAT'S views were carried out
and the State has been saved.
The Times devoted its columns and
all its energies to have a gentleman of
great personal popularity nominated
for Governor. We apprehend that the
support of the Times destroyed any
chance for the nomination Gov. Penn
may have had. The DEMOCRAT had no
choice for the nomination within the
party, but opposed Gov. Penn's nomi
nation because it differed widely with
him in politics, and in accordance with
its position a gentleman representing
the Democratic-Conservative policy
was nominated.
The Times and Picayune swore lustily
that if the parish convention did not
nominate unobjectionable candidates
for all offices they would bolt the nomi
nations and run independent candi
dates. The DEMOCRAT held that the
crisis was so grave a one that it would
be safer to accept any action of the
parish convention than to bolt and
create dissensions which might endan
ger the State ticket and lose the cause,
and it appealed to the people to abide the
nominations. The parish convention
made some nominations we know were
objectionable from the stand point from
which the Picayune and Times had
threatened. But these ferocious and
independent journals never whimpered,
but followed the DEMOCRAT into a Equare
fight.
The Picayune and limes wanted the
public printing given out to the lowest
bidder, and threatened and bullied the
Legislature to accomplish that end.
The DEMocRAT said, let just prices be
established for that work, and then let
the authorities choose for printer a man
in whose integrity and ability to do the
work they have confidence. The prop
osition of our neighbors did not get
twenty votes in both houses.
And finally, omitting many similar
instances of the discomfiture of the
Pie. and Times, they both furiously ad
vocated the imposition of the railroad
tax. The DEMOCRAT, an earnest friend
of the road, held that the tax was
wrong and dangerous in principle, an
outrage upon property, and that it ought
not to be voted, and the people came for
ward and defeated the pioposition of
the Pic. and times to tax by an over
whelming majority.
We are sorry that our neighbors have
manifested so much feeling about these
little matters. They can do something
now to advance the road probably by
opposing it. At any rate, we commend
them to accept the situation, and to
temper their overgrown vanity by ob
serving that the Bee represents the
views of the French, and the DEMOCRAT
the opinions of the English speak
ing population of Louisiana and
New Orleans. Nevertheless, our
neighbors should not be disheart
ened. In a State and city like
ours, there are many special interests
to be advocated and defended; much
profitable puffing to be done, and a great
deal of judicious neutrality on delicate
questions to be preserved. These are
wide and often profitable fields of jour
nalism, to which our friends, since the'
_btaaol., *i oilOidA and growlers
hamv taken *pisaeloua of the city and
overwhelmed ail progressive enter.
prises, may deVote their energies and
their tndisputed talents.
The vote on the Paoilo Itellway tax
demonstrates the gi'eat utility of a free
discussion in the prews of all questions
of interest to the public in general. It
has always been the pevloey of the Datm
oosAT to listen to and study both sides
of every measure affeeting the welfare
of the State and city, and to frankly
give the reasons which lead it to the
conclusions which it forms and enun
ciates to its readers, Indeed, we have
no respect for that kind of jolrnalism
wich sal l indivlfiduand measures
upon ea parte statements and argu
ments, and denies to its adversaries the
poor privilege of a hearing before its
readers.
It is the purpose of the DEamoaAT to
strenuously advocate the reform or
abolition of all abuses of which it can
obtain knowledge, and we cordially in
vite our readers to bring to our attention
every matter of interest to the public
which, in their opinion, calls justly for
rebuke. We shall take pleiure. - ii
lishing communications on all subjects
of general interest, provided that they
be written briefly and to the point and
that the name of the writer be furnish
ed, not for publication, but as a
guarantee of good faith.
Last week the DxMOoCrAT printed the
report of the grand jury in relation to
the condition and management of the
Workhouse. We are satisfied that the
report of the grand jury was a truthful
one. The City Council sent a committee
subsequent to the publication of the
grand jur$'s report, to investigate the
establishment, and though the em
ployes had in the meantime fixed
things up, the evidences of gross
mismanagement were so conspilo
uous that the committee's report
recommended the abolition of it.
It is rumored now that the Council
have reinstated the employes who the
Mayor, on seeing the report of the
Grand Jury, had suspended, but of
course the rumor is untrue. The public
interests, however, require that the
Council shall take immediate action in
this matter, and either abolish the in
stitution or place its management in the
hands of some officlal who will see that
it is properly conducted. The Work
house is an expensive institution, and
the tax payers cannot afford to sustain
it as a political nursery.
The story of the manner in which
Mr. Deputy Constable Caylat, of the
Seventh Justice's Court, serves writs
and makes seizures, which we print
this morning, will be found interesting
reading to our pu bile. The ruling of
the Justice that the deputy constable
was authorized, under article 702 of the
Code of Practice, to perpetrate the law
less violence of which he is charged
and virtually admits, is a most extraor
dinary one and utterly untenable, un- 1
less we are to hold that every unfortu
nate debtor's property-and person may
be the objects of the pergeoution of
merciless creditors and the violence of
ignorant and brutal officers of the law.
This whole matter indicates a gross
abuse which requires immediate cor
reotion.

APOSTHIROPHE TO MY HUSBAND.
Sleep on mind own beloved one
In thy far distant tomb!
Though sorrow shalows o'er each heart
That mourns thine early dlom.
The anguibh of that parting hour
Is on my spirit now;
It sends deep sorrow to my heart.
A shadow to my brow.
And yet I would not call the back
To the cold cares of life:
Sleep on, unmindful of the tear:
Of her thou once called wife.
