Wednesday Morning, Way aa. 1807.
XlaepubUtan Party la Ntorda,
When the “Loyal Longue“ so-termed—Hint
secret political organisation which has been so
actively operating In our Stole— first commenced
Its operations In Georgia, tt required no prophet
or prophet’s ton to foretell its alar, as It will re
quire none to foretell Its end. As “coming
events cast their shadows before them," to did
the " Bccrct Leagno" in its initiative in Georgia.
That It was designed to inaugurate In this, as
well as in every other Boullicrn Slate, a “ Republi-
tan Ihirty" In close alliance, subject In its policy
to the Republican party ol the North—that
party to which the South and the Southern peo
ple are Indebted tor all tho political rights aud
privileges (?) which they now eqjoy, Is now plain 1
ly seen. This otlspring of tho “ Secret League,"
the "Loyal League "—term It what we may-
it has been openly proclaimed Is to assemble in
this city on the 4th day ot July nest, through rep
resentatives from tho different counties of tho
State, to deliberate, of course, aud adopt such
, plan of action as will place Georgia ou the roll
of the Republican States North, even side by side
with Massachusetts. It this can be done, bo it
sol II such a party can succeed, can triumph
in Georgia, let it eqjoy Its successes and Its
triumphs, for Georgia will then have “ lost her
breed of noble blood,” and be fit for tho bumilia-
lion, or whatever else may be put upon her.'
We protest against the formation of any such
in our good old commonwealth. What
the State now needs is a Georgia Party—-n party
devoted to the Interests of the State—one that
shall, in the reconstruction measures imposed
upon her, never lose sight of the development of
her great resources, productive and otherwise, or
the honor of her people. Georgia needs no other
party than one, which, while submitting to all
legal enactments and to those in authority, shall
maintain her honor and whatever of political
privileges and rights “ the powers that be” con-
„ cede unto her. She wnnts none to represent her
upon the " MeSyeophant" principle that" tlirilt
may follow fawning.” Her people, when the
time conies, will go aud register and vote, not to
turn her over to the Radical Republicans ot the
North, or the Radical Republicans of the South
hut “ to men, high-minded men, who their rights
do know, and knowing dare maiutnia them”—
for of such States are constituted. Reconstruct
ed, she will discharge all her obligations to the
“ Union," and duties site will owe her people.
But sho will not become n mere dependence
upon a party to which she owes no favor, which
has denied her justice, and inflicted upon her ltu
miliation. She cunnot be bought by any party, nor
will her people sell themselves. They will con
form to the law; to what is required of them by
the military authorities under the law; but they
acknowledge and will submit to no political
party's requirements, come from whnt political
source or political party leaders they may.—
Agninst all such influences, we warn our people'
We had hoped, that in tho process of recon
struction, under tho into congressional cdsc!
ments, through which Georgia, it seems, will
pas9, we should lmvc been spared the infliction
of party Imrnngncs nnd party demonstrations.
But it seems tJiut this is not to be the case—tlinl
even that day so rovered by every son of the
sires of ’76, is to bo used lor party purposes.—
Whither, oh 1 whither ore wc drifting ? But we
are not so hopeless as sho of ancient times, who
! cried—
" Whst hope, oh, Pantliens I whither shall wo run,
Whero make a aland or what may yet ha done 1"
We bave hope—hope in the patriotism, wis
dom, and devotion of our people. Hope in their
enterprise and industry; hope in their law-abi
ding nature; bope in their virtue. Alithese cha
racteristics of our pcoplo must be invoked to
save our glorious old State from being transfer
red to a party in whose teaks it must follow to a
Ain if those who arrogantly will it so, shall
triumph in a contest, they, and they alone, have
determined to provoko. Georgia, when the time
cprnes, will expect her every son to do his duty
at the ballot box; nnd there nro but few, we
now predict, who will fail her in that day of
greater peril to her future honor, peace, and pros
perity, than the day upon which her gallant sons
in Lee’s ami Johnson’s armies threw down their
arms and submitted to what was exacted from
them.
Singular but Sound Advice.
That benevolent but strange gentleman, noted
for his abolition proclivities in the past, and now
for his sincere desire and earnest efforts to re
store peace to Ihe country—the Hon. Gcrrit
Smith—addressed a largo audicucc of freedmen
in tho African Cburcli at Richmond a few days
ago, immediately after Ids friend and Icllow-la-
borer lor years in the anti-slavery cause, Horace
Greeley, had done the same service to the same
“ redeemed, regenerated, and disenthralled " peo
ple as they are considered to be by the abolition
philanthropists of New England aDd the North.
At the close of Mr. Gerrit Smith’s speech, refer
ring to the freed men’s desire to get land, he said,
“ He could tell them a way for the blacks to get
possession o( half the laud in the Slute of Vir
ginia.” Tills, oi course, oxciled his audience
very much. It was just what they wanted to
■i know; just the knowledge they craved; and
~ every ear wits turned to tho speaker to hear the
I- agreeable intelligence. “ Let," said ho, “ the
1 white pcoplo drink nil tho rum, and the black
^ people drink none i” Whether even for half the
* land in the State of Virginia, the freedmen there
' will follow the advice of their friend Smith, the
r Richmond papers are silent, it was sound ad-
; vice, however, from which we trust both races
1 In Virginia and the South will profit.

In a note to Judge Uolt yesterday, recalled the
promise of publication, etc.,,and asked to bo
permitted to make a copy. To this Judge Holt
replied that ko would be glad to comply with
the request, but he had no authority to furnish
the copy, except by express direction ot the Se
cretary of War. Mr. Stanton was then applied
to, and the facta nnd circumstances all explained.
Mr. Stanton refused to give a permit for a copy
to bo made, adding: " The diaryshall not be pub
lished, if I ean present it." The Secretary ot
War did not assign any reason for this determina
tion. It is but just to tho President and the Judge
Advocate General to say that they both coincid
ed with the opinions expressed by the editors of
various Journals aa to the propriety of giving
publicity to the diary, and that they are desirous
that it snail go to the public.
The Netv York Courier wants to know what
all this means, and says: The Tribune generally
stands by the Secretary, as all the Radical mem
bers of Congress stood by him. But hero he is
placed in the position of opposing the general
public will, and even defying the Tribune Itself
—a crime which is only less than high treason.

The Naked Drama.
Mark Twain has seen the “Black Crook” at
Niblo’s, New.'fork, aud is scandalized. Accord
ing to his idea Sodom nnd Gomorrah in their
palmiest day were not ahead of Gotham in
sorao things. We quote the following from his
last letter:
I warn you that when they put bcautilul clip
per-built girls on tho stage in this now fashion,
with only barely clothes enough on to be tnnla-
lizlug, it is a shrewd invention ol the devil. It
lays a heavier siege to public morals than ail the
legitimate model artist Bhotvs you can bring into
action.
The scenery and tho legs are everything; the
actors who do tho talking are the Wretchedcst
sticks on tlie boards. But the fairy scenes—they
fascinate the boys I Bcautilul hare-legged girls
hanging iu flower baskets ; others stretched in
groups on great sen shells; others clustered
uround fluted columns; others in nil possible at
titudes ; girls—nothing but a wilderness of girls
—stacked up, pile on pile, way aloft, to the dome
of the theater, diminishing in sizo nnd clothing,
till the last row, mere children, dangle high up
from invisible ropes, arrayed ouiy in chemises.
Tho whole tableau resplendent wit.lt columns,
scrolls, and a vast ornamental work, wrought in
gold, silver and brilliant colors—all lit up with
gorgeous theatrical fires, and witnessed through
a great gauzy curtaiu that counterfeits a soft
stiver inist I It is the wonder of the Arabian
Nights realized.
Those girls dance in ballet, dressed with a
meagerness that would make a parasol blush.—
And they prance around and expose themselves
in a way that is scandalous to ntc. Moreover,
tiiey come trooping on tho stage in platoons and
battalions, iu most princely attire, I grant you
hut alwnys with more tights in view than any
thing clso. They change their clothes every fif
teen minutes for four hours, and their dresses
Itccomc more beautiful nnd more rascally all the
time.
Edwin Booth and the legitimate drama still
draws immense houses, but the signs of the
times convince me that ho will have to make a
hR* e change by nnd by, and peel some women.
Nuthing elso can chain the popular taste, tho
way things are gofog now.
Order Respecting Fire Arina.

order in rofcrenco to carrying fire-arms:

Until further orders no fire-arms will bo permit
ted to be carried, either secretly or openly, by
any person in the city of New Orleans, except
such as may be authorized or required by law
to carry the same iu the elocution of their offl
ctol duties.
The Mayor of the city will give suclt instruc
tions to the police os may bo necessary to insure
a strict enforcement of this order, and any per
son found violating the same will be subject to
trial and punishment by military commission.

The New Orleaus Picayune expresses the opin
ion tiiat the order is well-timed, and will prevent
any further exhibition of that spirit ol violence
aud subversion of good order which has been
manifested by freedmen, otherwise and hereto

by ill advisers, who hope to rise thereby to the
surface and float into power.
Virginia.—The paragraph below occurs In
the Richmond correspondence of a New York
paper of Republican politics :
As the caso now stands, the Republican Party
of the Stato, as organized at the Hunnicut Con
vention ou tho 17th of April, Is in a hopeless
minority in the State, aud can be certain of the
support only ol tho demoralized blacks and the
demoralizing whites. The disfranchising clause
of the Military bill will cut oil so very few of
the former voters that it is hardly an element
worthy ot consideration, and lienee there is
ground for the boasts that the Copperhead-rebel
I’arty—ns Bolts calls them; Conservative Party,
as they call themselves—will sweep the Stato by
an immense majority at the approaching election
ot a convention to make a Constitution lor the
Slate under the Military bill. Not only is there
ground for the boast, but it is very certain that it
will be accomplished, and thus hand over the
offices oi the State to the old Democratic hier
archy for years to come.
The Astob House, Ntfw Yoke.—In tho New
York Herald's account of tho nrrival of Mr.
Davis at New York, tho following occurs:
Tho Niagara was duo here at midnight It
was rumored that he would stop at the Astor
House; hut it was believed tlmt liis presence
there would not ho desirable, aud Hint if appli
cation were made for accommodations lie would
be denied the same, in nccordnnco with a deci
sion of the proprietor. Not desiring any public
demonstration lor or against him, it was under
stood that he would avail himself ol the hospi
tality offered him by private friends in the city,
rather than subject himself to the desagremens
inseparable from stnyfog at a hotel.
Tho above may be a good advertising card for
the Astor House, but we are inclined to think
not.
Davis and Greeley.—Horace has felt called
upon to make a publication as follows :
Orrici or tbe Tribcnk,
New Yobk, May 17.
To the Editor of the World:
Sin—Will you please tell your readers that
your correspondent’s statement that I was in one
of tho carriages “ which conveyed Jcflerson Da
vis to the New York Hotel, was utterly un
founded 7 I was then far uway, and never saw
Mr. Davis anywhere hut in Richmond for a few
miuutes; was never “closeted” with him, nor
had any sort ol conunuuicutiou with him, save
to exchange iu a crowd a lew ol tho commonest
commonplaces. As your mistake Is calculated
to do public mischief, I ask Us emphatic correc
tion. Y ours, Hobace Greeley.
The Bibiiof Elect of Georgia.—'The Jack-
son Mississippian, quoting from the Picayune its
mention of Rev. John W. Beckwith, Bishop
elect of Georgia, says of it and him :
Never was a compliment more worthily be
stowed. A noble, eloquent, and truly Christian
geotlcraau has been called to the highest posi
tion in the church, aud although we know his
warm attachment to his New Orleans parish, he
cannot and should not decline the position which
has truly sought the man.

Obituary.
Dr. Holmes Steele, of this city, died on Wed
nesday morning, the Oth instant, at tho age of
forty-seven. Dr. Steele was born in Charleston,
South Carolina. Alter graduating with high
honors in his profession, he waschosen professor
in the Oglethorpe Medical College, and held tho
chair of obstetrics in that institution five years.
In 1869 he resigned tho professorship and re
moved to Florida. During the war Dr. Steels
held a captain's commission In tho Confederate
service, and commanded tho Jacksonville Light
Infantry Company. At the return ot peace he
was elected to the State Senate from this county,
almost without opposition. For more than a
year previous to bis death he was associate edi
tor of the Florida Union. * Dr, Steele was in the
front rank of his profession—a braver man never
went to tho “ tented field; ” in the halls of legis
lation bis sound judgment, practical good sense,
and liberal views of State policy, gave him com
manding influence. His political information
was extensive, and we have rarely known a
writer more happily blend in his style, clearness,
force and elegance. As a than we can do nothing
but eulogize him. His convictions were strong,
resulting from deliberation, but he was generous,
kind-hearted and unselfish. Dr. Steele leaves a
loud, devoted wife, and a daughter ot tender
years, to mourn their loss. Their grief will be
shared by innumerable friends who sorrow at
the good man’s denth.
A Glimpse Behind th« mask,
A coloredJBapVist minister at Beaufort, South
Carolina, writing to the Ohristian Record among
other things says: “Some of our white ministe
rial friends do more in the way of procuring
farms and keeping our poor race in ignorance
than anything else. They pretend, when they
are North, that they would come down nnd do
anything lor our raco In the way of enlightening
them; hut instead of this, when they see the
cotton bag, they forget all about Christ aud Him
crucified, and the saving of souls.” Of certain
Northern merchants, he says: “All they wish
to do, is teach what President.Lincoln lias done,
pat the colored man ou the shoulder with the
left hand, while with the right hand they catch
hold ol his pocket-book. And when they have
got the Inst cent from him, their friendship and
Uenly ceases. Then ‘ho is only a nigger." We
suspect that the "colored brotheriu this in
stance reveals more truth than poetry in reference
to the practices of reverend politicians. They
are Satan’s vice-gcrents on earth, and go about
like roaring lions, seeking to devour somebody.
“Pet lambs" and cotton bales had better bo kept
under koy while they are about.
The Milk in the Cocoa Nut.—The Phila
delphia Age is not at a loss to account for Radi
cal activity at tho South. It says: “ In regard
to the votes of the negroes, there is this fact that
should not escape public attention. The Radi
cals have spared no exertions to keep the South
ern States out of the Union until the blacks
should, under the law, exerciso the privilege of
suffrage. They have not, however, displayed
anythiug like the same interest ol energy in ne
gro suffrage in the Northern States. This would
at first seem inconsistent, and inconsistent it
would he for any other than an Abolition party,
It 1b, however, euaceptlble of explanation. Tho
Radicals have counted certainly upon the votes
ot the negroes of the South en masse in their
favor. They were afraid to trust to the negroes
of the North, who had lived among them aud
understood them too well, to vote as they did.”
New Orleans.—A significant quarrel is in
progress in Louisiana between the so-called
" Union Republicans ” and the extreme Radical
Republicans; tbe former endeavoring to control
the negro vote, with a view to the consolidation
ot a Southern Republican party, and the latter
lavoring the plan ot nominating negro candi
dates and working tho machinery of the State in
the interest of color. The split manifested itself
in the refusal of the extremists to co-operate with
tho other section in welcoming Judge Kelley to
New Orleans, and is widened daily by local con
troversies and correspondence,
TnE Trial of Surratt.—" Palmetto," of the
Charleston Mercury, writes that the counsel for
Surratt expert, to secure the commeucemcht of
this trial next Monday, the 27th instant. It will
doubtjesa be one of the most interesting criminal
trials that ever occurred in this country. Parties
tolerably familiar with the facta express the opiu
ion tlmt the evidence will hilly prove the inno
cence of the accused, as well as of his mother,
who was put to death, with scarcely tbe form of
a trial, nearly two years ago.
An Iniquitous Law.—'The New York World
calls attention to a most important law passed
by the late Congress, as an amendment to the
19th section of the Internal Revenue act, in the
following wordB: "No suit for (he purpose of re
straining the assessment or collection of any tax
shall be maintained in any court." This virtually
subjects the properly of all citizens to he confis
cated by cxhorbilant taxation. Assessors and
collectors are relieved from all restraint and can
levy their exactions without control. Such vast
power conferred in a form so nbsolute and ir
responsible is truly alarming, aud cannot but
lead to much oppression and injustice. It msy
and most probably will ho, converted into prac
tical confiscation.

Flower-Strewn Graves.—The New York
Evening Post says :
It nmv not be generally know that the prac
tice of decorating the graves of the dead, which
now seems likely to become a universal custom
at the South, is a "Yankee notion,” first carried
into effect by a Radical citizen of Boston, in
Charleston, South Carolina.
Tlte truth is that strewing flowers on the
graves ol the dead was a European custom
before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth, and
la about as much of a “Yankee notion” as the
ringing of bells or the shooting of cannon.
TnE Working Men Moving.—Tbe Peters

following unnouncemeut: "We learn it is the

Narrow Escape.— 1 Tim Davenport Gazette, of
the 14th, in giving the particulars of the blowing
up of the steamer. Lansing, which occurred on
the Mississippi lost week, relates tlte following
among other incidents:
Entering the house of Mr.'Binithail, already
alluded to, we found in bed, and under the kind
care of Mrs. B., a gentleman who was sitting on
tho boiler-deck of the Lansing, just in front of
the smoke-stack, when the explosion took place,
and instantly thereafter picked himself up within
a lew yards ot Mr. Smilhall's residence, or three
hundred and fifty feet from the boat. This gen
tleman is Mr. John J. Krecdior, of Clinton,
DoWitt county, Illinois, hut for some time past
staying iu Rock Island. He is about 35 years ol
age, and must weigh at least 160 pounds. Mr.
K. informed us that he remembers well his loca

and hastening to the house where we found him.

ficing to our country’s wrongs. For six months
WO.had worked to capture, but our cause being
almost lost, something decisive and great must
be done. But flu lalluro was owing to others
who did not striko for their country with a
heart. I struck boldly, and not a* tho papers
say. I walked with a firm step through a thou
sand of li)s friends; was stopped but pushed on.
A Colonel was at his side. I shouted 9ie Semper
before I fired. In Jumping broke my leg. I
passed nil his pickots. Rodt} sixty miles that
night with the bone of my leg tearing tho flesh
at every jump. 1 can nover repent it, though

General Sickle* Forbid* Distillation of
Grain,
Charleston, May 31.—General Sickles has
issued nn order prohibiting the distillation of
spirits from grain in the Second Military Dis
trict. Offenders declared liable to trial and pun
ishment by military commission. Tho reasons
assigned lor the order arc, that tlte present scar
city of supplies of lood in the Carolinas is seri
ously diminished by the large quantity of grain
consumed in distilleries, worked iu defiance of
tho revenue laws; that this unlawful traffic
makes food dearer in places where largo num
bers are depending upon public and private
bounties; that the government is defrauded of a
large amount of revenue; that tho authority ol
its civil officers are brought into contempt, and
tiiat the mischief complained of tends to increase
poverty, disorder and crimes.
