Louisiana seems resolved to destroy the Democratic parry. Two years ago, i that it is correct to cbenab such a dis when the country was on the point of trust. Will some wise writer just accepting the Herald's idea of a Na- tional Convention of Peace Recoustrue- tion, the White Kuighta, or some such gang, overturned the regular govern ment, compelled President GranP to is.iue a war-like proclamation, and le TiveJ in an hour the spirit of Suiupter. In aa hour all hope of such convention faded away. Now, on the eve of a most important electien for the Presi dency an election that will determine the control of the nation for fonr and perhaps forty yaars we have news of acotber outbreak in Louisiana. Ths results cf this we sain up as follows : "Lisht colored men shot iour nangea , r l 1 I twenty wounded ; no whites killed." Auothcr source reports : " Sixteen blacks k.Ilod." Another says : "Three whites kiiltd." The sheriff reports : " Seventeen color -d men killed and rnatiy wounded. in noting this occurrence we may say, iu the first place, that all ues from the South, from the Associated Press re porters, my he accepted as friendly toward the Democrats and whites, it Las been so at least since the war closed. Therefore, if these accounts have been exaggerated, it is in favor of the whites and not the negroes. The whites wtite aud talk and use the wires ; they have the ear of the country, and it is their story upon which we now comment. It is certainly a painful story. We talk of reconstruction, of pure government, of bringing the oM sections together. .The majority of citizens in the North bave no purpose so dear to them as the political, personal, sociat and commer cial restoration of the Union. To bring about these results, to forever extin guUh the painful memories of the war, to enable the South to resume her once proud position, there is nothing we would not do nothing except to cancel the result of the war. And yet there seems to be a party in the South which will bave peace on no other terms. This party recognizes that the negro his been freed from personal slavery, bnt it proposes to reduce him to politi cal slavery. It was conquered by the rifle ; it proposes to conquer by the shot-gun. ' It is ti-Jie for ns to speak with the utmost plainness to our friends in the South. There can only be one end to this shot-gun policy. These constant stories of assassination on tho Red river, of conventions dissolved by force, of riots, with " twenty negroes killed and one white man wounded of rev olutions like that against Ames in Mis sissippi , this proscription of Northern men as "carpet-baggers" and of South era Republicans as " scalawags," this assumption that because a citizen of New York removes North Carolina and dares to gJ into politics as a republican be must necessarily be a scamp and only to be treated as an outlaw, this ostracism and proscription, and, above all, these cruel, brutal, inhuman mur derers of negroes that wn have seen in New Orleans, Memphis, Vicksburg and Colfax, and which we now witness at Bayou Sara, only defer a true reconcil iation besween the sections. It is no answer to say that these outbreaks re suit from the tuisgovernment of men like Moses, Wbipper and the rest. We admit their errors. We bave censured the General Government for permitting tbem to hold power. But this is no excuse for the scenes that take place in Louisiana. See bow New York was misgoverned fire years ago. See the mii-governmeot in Chicago to day. There is nothing in the history of the South to eoinpare with it. But neither New York nor Illinois would stand ex cused for a moment if the reign of thieves had given place to tne reign of asassi:is. We can attribute riots like those we have sen so often in the South, and which we now see in Louisiana, to too reigu of a-isassiuation. The law abid ing men of that State must deplore it as tuuch as we do in New York, and we trust they will take up arms and sup press it. We can on t thrnk of the gal lant sons of Louisiana the men who followed Beauregard over so many bloody fields going with shotguns into swamps to murder negroes. We appeal to these men to put an end to this reign of '-asination ; for if they in not, the Genera Government will. Even if there were a domestic majority in the HnitM 4 l&rA apain A - f- - v yiviovui, the people of this Republic who To-t the war for the Luisn woutd never submit io silence to a union which per' mits the repeated assassination of oiti sens for tbejr principles.' Upon this point thre most be no misunderstand ing. We differ ahoat a hundred things, but on this point we do not differ.
