T4W 9SLUAWU, JULif 4, 18211. ý
The readers of the DIMOCnAt will tak:
aotice that this is the Fourth of July
or, as the orators have it, the blrthdaj
of American liberty. As the subjeci
has been atready several times disoussed
we deem it hardly neoessary to furthel
elaborate it.
Mr. saoul Dupre, well known In the
community as an enterprising rioc
merchant, left last evening by the Mo
bile route for the North on a trip partli
of pl.sate, partly of business. We
hope that he will be suecessful in both
neids.
Attention is called to the important
oarrespondence between Major 1. A~
lurke and Hon. Allen Jumel, State Au.
41tor, which will be found in anothe
co.olumla of this issue. It is to be hoped
that delinquent license payers will sho.
their appreelation of Mr. Jumel's lent
enoy by promptly paying their lloense
tales.
An exobhane announces the death, at
the Hermitage, near Nashville, last
Thursday morning, June 28, of Mrs.
Marion Adams, a sister of Mrs. Andrew
Jackson and wife of President Jack
son's adopted son. Her death resulted
from a fall which fractured her thigh.
UShe was seventy-five years of age. Her
remains were interred in the family
burying ground at the Hermitage.
We notice with pleasure that our
young townsman, Mr. Win. F. Booth,
son of Hon. E. Booth, has been award
ed the second honor of the Junior year
'of the law department at Yale College.
This is quite a distinguished success;
achieved, as it was, at so old and thor
ough an Institution as Yale, and argues
well for our young friend's capacity and
energy. We oibr our oonuratulations.
Op account of the celebration of the
Fourth of July, and to afford leisure to
its employes for partclipation in the
general festivities, the DIEMOoCAT will
apiiear neither on the evening of the
Fourth nor the morning of the fifth.
We will take occasion of this respite
from journalistic labor to put up a beau
tiful new engine, just purchased, which
will permit us to work our paper and
jobbing with more dispatch and neat
ness even than before. The patrons of
the DaMOCnaT will thus be amply cotm
pensated for the loss pf one issue of the
paper, as, it will start anew, fresh and
UndeverwatnnMatrl hn tt nnr4 rattnnmrtntr
We print in another column of the
DnvaoarTa communication, reproduced
from the Pointe Coupese 'eliann, in rela
tion to the President's Southern policy
and the future of the Democratic party.
The article was written by Col. F. L.
Claiborne, of Pointe Coupee, and has
the old Democratic ring, as anything
from the same pen must have. Col.
Claiborne predicts a renewe4 vitality
for the Democratic party and fresh vic
tories for its time-honored banners. He
s right. The heavens are full of the
signs of victory. There seems to be
little doubt that the States of New
York, New Jersey, Ohio, and even Penn
sylvania, will go Democratic this fall.
Public sentiment everywhere is dis
gusted with what Judge Black denomi
mates the OauaT rsnes or 1876, and there
is no longer a doubt that the Eight to
8even Tribunal, while it made Hayes
President, so covered the Republican
party with shame and infamy that it
can never again enlist the sympathies
and following of a majority of the
American people.
The New York Times acknowledges
that it is not prepared to insist upon
mixed schools in New Orleans, or, in
other words, it has the sense to see that
nothing but harm could come of them
and ventures to intimate as much, but
lacks the candor and courage to come
out openly and say so.
But, as an offset to this, it goes on to
aseume that the whites in control of the
government are disposed to deny to the
colored people free and ample educa
tional advantages, and this on the
strength of the representations of the
committee of. colored politicians that
recently visited Gov. Nicholls in rela
tion to the school question.
"Whatever the real feeling of the
whites in Louisiana may be," says the
Times, "it is now evident that it is in
terpreted unfavorably by the more in
telligent blacks, and that these contem
plate emigration to an extent worthy of
remark."
Not a word of this is true. The true
inwardness of the attempt to bulldoze
Oov. Nicholls was a political manaouvre
got up in Packard's interest, and it did
not give expression to the real senti
ments of the colored masses, who al
most universally, throughout our whole
State, prefer separate schools. Nowhere
in the State, except in this city, are
the schools mixed, nor have they ever
been; here they were made so for a
bad purpose, and solely to irritate race
feeling for political ends. As for the
negro hegira from this Stata, that's all
a myth. We wish we could hope for one
from this city, where thousands of idle
negroes who should be in the fields are
congregated and serve neither them
selves nor the State.
Tfl DAZED NATIOW8,
While Russia moves towards Constan
tinOple with ursh savage energy and
overwhelming force, the other great
po@irs of the Old World appear to be
dsed and confounded into a state oi
sttpor and Insensibility which ha~nt
parallel or precedent in the history of
the past.
Never before was one of the great
powers, especially Russia, permitted to
move forward so resolutely in the ex
poution of a plan to unsettle the estab
listll order and relation of the States
of IEurope, without the Intervention and
oppqlition of some of the others, and
generally all.
Now, thesf is not a whisper or a blink
of such'Ototest, or even an attempt
by any of these powers to check or
discourage the onward march of Russia
against one of the oldest of the eset
llished powers of Europe. But there
a distinot and expressive nod of approval
and encouragement from one of the
greatest of these powers and the
mightiest pf the rulers of Europe.
Bismarok, with grim but impressive
silence, gives this nod, which in its
power and influence can only be fitly
described in the words of Homer ap
plied to the King of Gods, who
" Shakes his ambrosial curls and gives the nod,
The stamp of ute, the sanetion of a god."
At this nod the poor Emperor of Aus
tria shrinks in his morning gown, and
the soldier President of France breaks
out into speeches and letters on the hor
rors of war and the imperious need of
peace to France, and arrests the person
or seizes the press of some excitable
journalist who has yielded to the old
Gallic passion for la gloire and broken
out in some indiscreet suggestion that
Sedan and Metz have not been avenged.
And old John Bull is absorbed in
grand entertainments to an American
ex-General, whose laurels were won by
the same agencies, and in a war in
stigated by like passions with those
which impel the Russians in the move
ment of their vast hordes "from the
frozen North" against a feeble'iouthern
State. Whilst paying honors to Gen.
Grant, how can the material and sub
stantial Briton regard with less admirae
tion and commendation the heroic
progress of Russia, with her three to
one of soldiers and ten to one of me
chanical power and financial resources,
through the country which has been
held by the Osmanlis for five hundred
years, dJevastating and laying waste the
most fertile region and destroying the
most peaceful villages of Europe, with
a ferocity only equalled by that of
Sheridan, under Grant's orders, through
the Shenandoah in our great war?
How can John Bull withhold his ad
miration and applause from all such
achievements and material results ?
How can he refuse the father-in-law of
the Duke of Edinburg the tribute
which he has rendered to U. S. Grant ?
"Only don't Interfere with the canal
through which our ships and goods
have to pass to our rich possessions in
the East, and you may do what you like
with the blarsted Turk."
This seems to be the present attitude
of Great Britain. And now Alexander
may well vaunt himself the most suc
cessful bully of the civilized world.
Even the laurels of the great Napoleon
in his palmy days must fade before
these victories of the Czar who, twenty
years ago, was a suppliant for "peace
on any terms," when foiled in the at
tempt which he now repeats without
the opposition or protest of any of the
very powers to which he then capltu
lated..
A SORROWFUL EXTINCTION OF AN
HONORED NAME.
What a melancholy and distressful
tragedy is that which has recently dif
fused universal sorrow though sodlety
in Selma, Alabama, and by which the
South has been deprived of one of the
heroes of our civil war, and a historical
name of great brilliancy! We refer to
the killing of Capt. T. Ap Catesby
Jones by one of his neighbors. This
name is associated with the two
brightest naval eiploits in our two
great ware. The father of Capt. Jones
was the hero of the gunboat fight near
the head of Lake Borgne, in December,
1814, au affair of the most gallant and
sanguinary character, and which had
an important influence on the
subsequent glorious events of that
memorable campaign which closed with
the repulse and expulsion of the British
army from this State. With five little
schooners which had been run aground,
armed with a few cannon and about 120
men, the then Lieut. Jones fought a force
of English sailors and marines of 1500
men, who attacked the little fleet in
large boats, with .carronades in their
bows, and inflicted on them a loss of
several hundred killed and wounded.
Jones and his feeble crews were neve,
captured until all his officers were cut
or sltot down, including the gallant
commander, by the boarding parties
which, in overwhelming force, man
aged to reach these little helpless and
unmanageable vessels.
The name of Ap Catesby Jones
was thus made one of the brightest and
most honored in our naval annals.
This name and the heroic qualities
which made it renowned were
worthily borne and represented by the
late unfortunate victim of a personal
brawl at Selma. Cap. Jones, the oldest
son of Commodore Jones whose exploits
in 1814 we have described, was the
captain and executive officer in
the memorable combat of the Vir.
ginia off Norfolk, in 1862, when
such enormous loss and destruction
were inflicted upon the strongest ships
I of the Federal navy by a hastily con
struoted and experimental ram. There
has been no moredesperate and gallant
" naval action In modern times. Admi.ral
D Buchanan, who was on board of the Vir
ginia in this fight, has assigned to his
executive officer, Capt. Ap Catesby
f Jones, the chief honors of that astruc
tive and sanguinary combat.
It 18 indeed most pitiable that such a
man should perish in the manner re
ported, wherein it would appear he was
acting the part of a peace-maker and
protesting against the encouragement
given by their elders to two little boys
engaged in a brutal conflict.
THE EPIDEMIO OP FRAUD,
And now an investigation of the af
fairs of the Charter Oak Life Insurance
" Company of Connecticut shows a deficit
of $2,000,000. Peculation and robbery
by ptubil offioialA, managers of corpora
tlfin and private business men have
Ibecome a moral, or rather we should
say an Immoral, epidemic, and the pestl
lence is spreading. There seems to be no
power In the land to bridg these classes
of malefactors to justice, and scarcely a
week passes that some shining example
is not furnished society of a successful
official or business swindle.
Is anybody green enough to
suppose that the managers of the
Charter Oak Life Insurance Com,
pany will be held to a reckoning? Buch
a consummation would be a wonder in
deed, unless there is a vigor in the law
of Connecticut unknown to the enfee
bled and emasculated jurisprudence of
Louisiana. The pestilence of fraud is
spreading to every rank and avocation
of society, and every public and private
interest appeals to the ministers and tri
bunals of the law to interpose vigorous
action to check it. This epidemic, en
gendered in the fe id and filthy atmos
phere and cesspo ', of Radical politics
and government, and which is poison
nlog civilization Itself, cannot be checked
by the execution of a few Ignorant and
brutal negro murderers, or by the rigid
punishment of pickpockets and
burglars. If the law of Louisiana, and
indeed of other States, cannot bring to
justice the rascals who have used public
offices and authority to rob the people,
or the false and swindling fiduciaries
entrusted with the concerns of corpora
tions, then it is a farce and a failure,
its executions are murder, and its
sentences more criminal than the
deeds of the miserable wretches it
consigns to prison. It is not the
slums of society that need cleansing
and purification. These always have
existed and always will exist. It is the
higher ranks of society that need expur
gation, and it is in these upper regions,
rank and foul with perjury, fraud and
breaches of trust, that the lightnings and
the thunders of the law should flash
and strike.
If a miserable and ragged wretch.
without character or friends, may be
sent to prison for robbing a till, while
ex-judges of the Supreme Court who have
helped themselves out of the treasury,
and RIadical speculators who have pil
fered over $600,000 of the public money,
cannot be held to an account; and
the criminal courts of the State cannot
hold an ex-offillal who has robbed the
State of records of incalculable value,
proving the guilt of criminals, thieves
and swindlers who go scott free, what
is the law but a damnable system of
DIFFERENOE BETWEEN EMBEZZLE
MENT AND POLITIOS,
We are beginning to entertain a very
great admiration for Mr. Geo. B. John
son. He seems, indeed, to be the only
man of vim and dash our revolutionary
politics have developed. We began by
ranking him as a vulgar broiler and
embezzler; but a man who holds the
whole State government at bay, pulls it
out of one court and into another at
pleasure, boasts of the fact that he holds
possession of State records of great
value and importance-vital in fact to
the civil' administration-refuses to pro
duce them, cooly disputes the legality
of the administration from Governor
down to constable,.insults the Superior
Criminal Court, lounges for contempt a
few days in elegant appartments with
sumptuous fare at the Parish Prison,
then walks out, pulls the court's nose,
laughs in the court's face, cocks his hat
on one side of his head and skips olf
over the lake to refresh himself with
cool baths and cooler breezes-such a
man, we say, challenges our admiration
and excites our applause.
Really, we beg Mr. Johnson's pardon
for all the hard names we have called
him; he is a pnan of spirit, a fellow of
parts. He twists the State of Louisiana
around his finger and 'trips up the
courts at will, and is really making a
very amusing thing out of the embez
zlement of the books of the Auditor's
office and a very laughable thing of
the Superior Criminal Court. Mr.
Johnson is no longer a vulgar rogue.
If he were such a thing the Superior
Criminal Court could tackle and hold
him; for did not that awful and august
tribunal scoop up and send to
the Penitentiary for twenty-one
years a darkey who fired at
and missed another fellow:
Has it not sent a regiment or so of pick.
pockets, common rogues and peace
breakers to expiate their vile deeds in
prison? The law is not framed for great
men like Mr. Johnson; the courts are
not organized to convict men of his en
larged and enlightened schemes of em
bezzlement. It would be, we presume,
"persecution for past political offenses'
to deal too rigidly with Mr. Johnson
about this matter. Robbing a till or
picking a pocket may be a penitentiary
offense, but stealing the public records
and thus concealing the evidence of the
robbery of the taxpayers of Louislana
t of half a million or more is politics
I Mr. Geo. B. Johnson is not an embez
zler under this enlightened theory; hi

I THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE
00MMITTEE.
The propriety of the action of thE
Legislature at its last session, at thE
time much censured, in providing foi
an Assistant Attorney General, hat
t been fully vindicated. No official to
the State has had larger responsibilities
resting upon him, or more complicated
and arduous duties to perform, than
Attorney General Ogden; he has la.
bored with untiring and unflagging on.
ergy, day and night, in their discharge,
and It is but simple justice to an able
and conscientious public servant to say
that he has done the State great service,
When the present weight of pressing
affairs is off his shoulders, we under.
Sstand that the Attorney General will
make things lively for that illustrious
band of public malefactors who have
been for eight years robbing the State.
It seems that the laws are in many
respects quite defective, and that it is
difficult in some cases to proceed
against the guilty parties. The RIadi
cals, in fact, were so busy making
laws and processes by which and
through which they might rob the peo
ple and the State, that they paid little
attention to statutes for the punishment
of crime, and their neglect In this 'egard
has rather embarrassed the law officers
of the government in proceeding against
them.
In this connection we must direct
public attention to the untiring labors
of Senator Steven's investigating com
mittee. This committee, composed of
Senator Steven, chairman, Senator
Wheeler and Representatives Aldige,
Leeds, Buck and Desmarals, has .been
in almost constant session for several
weeks. It has already brought to light
much information of general impor
tance, and it will, we have no doubt,
finally discover the whereabouts of the
books of the Auditor's omoe.
The proceedings of this committee,
we observe by our exchanges, are being
watched with great interest, not only
throughout Loulsiena, but also in
Texas and Mississippi.
Clara Louise Kellogg has discovered
"a thousand melodies unheard before"
in Japanese music, and she proposes to
tell all about them in the forthcoming
summer holiday number of ,S'riber'R
Monthly. She says she first became in
terested in this music, which she as
sures us is very original and really
beautiful, while a company of Japanesee
jugglers were performing in New York
several years ago. One night, at the
Academy of Music, she discovered run
nidg through the chaos of sounds made
by the orchestra of tom-toms and ket
tie-drums two exquisite melodies. Night
after night she returned to hear them
till she learned them and wrote them
down, and she intends to publish them
in Scribner's Monthly,
Just now Japanese art is the fashion
able lunacy and it may be either that
Miss Kellogg is possessed by it, or that
she is merely trying to put shekels in
her pocket by pandering to it in others.
Still, there is a remQte chance that the
melody is there. At all events; she is
a fline writer and. anything she may
have to say about music will be interest
n lug to muslcat people.
