Tne Morning News is about entering
on its twenty-sixth volume, and upon its
advent into its second quarter of a ceif-

to our old patrons that it will continue to
keep in the front rank of modern jour
nalism. Besides the reasonable price ($10
per annum) for which the paper has
heretofore been sent, there will, after the
1st of January, 1875, be no postage to be

Something for the Philadelphia Show.
In the light of the events of later days,
Grant’s recommendation that Louisiana
shall participate in the Centennial Cele
bration of the Declaration of American
Independence, at Philadelphia, on the
4 th day of July, 187G, becomes a piece of
the highest sarcasm on record, in view of
which the Wilmington Star suggests to
the citizens of the Pelican State that they
put on exhibition copies of Grant’s or
der to Sheridan, directing him to go to
New Orleans and assume command, and
the subsequent orders and telegrams of
that doughty warrior. The Star thinks
an historical painting representing the
expulsion of the legally elected members
cf tho Louisiana Legislature, ejected from
the council halls of the State by bayonets
in the hands of Federal soldiery, com
manded by a Federal officer, would form
a fit companion piece.
Louis iana would contribute greatly to
the interest of the exhibition, and would
afford a striking illustration of the pro-
gress of the century in Republican gov
ernment, if it would send its whole Radi
cal menagerie, Kellogg, Casey, Packard,
Durell, Antoine and Pinchback, with the
carpet-bag and negro bayonet Legislature
in a body to the great spread eagle show
at Philadelphia. Such a parade of Radi
cal dignitaries would be an attractive fea
ture of the exhibition, and would demon
strate to the world the progress and the
beauties of Radical-Republicanism that
have been developed in “ this laud of the
free aud home of tho brave ” since 1778.
Call Off Your Dogs.—The Balti
more Sun, in casting about for some
remedy to curb Grant’s insane ambition,
suggests that the Conservatives fight any
further appropriation for tho military
service as long as the army is used for
unconstitutional and despotic purposes.
We think with the Courier-Journal that
the better remedy, m the light of the
overwhelming proof that Grant is using
tho army for his own political puiqioses,
is to demand that the troops be with
drawn from the Southern States at once,
if no good reason can be shown why they
are kept there any more than in Penn
sylvania, Iowa, Illinois and other States
where there are numerous murders and
highway robberies, all of which those
States claim the right to legislate upon
and punish.
The Way to Silence Slander.
Gov. Garland, of Arkansas, has acted
with becoming erergy and with much
1 shrewdness in instructing the prosecut-
j ing attorney to summon before the
grand jury now in session such persons
as have declared OTer their signa
tures that the White League exists in
j that State, causing a reign of terror and
rendering the lives of Union men inse
cure. Nearly two hundred persons pro
fessing to have been Union soldiers have
signed their names to a card addressed to
President Grant, alleging these facts in
justification of Gen. Sheridan's “ ban
ditti ” dispatches. Among so many wit
nesses there must be some actual knowl
edge of the existence of these lawless and
murderous bands, and Gov. Garland is re
solved to ascertain the truth, and to bring
the guilty White Leaguers to justice un
der the Slate Ku-Klux act. In a dispatch
to President Grant the Governor an
nounces his determination to use all the
power of the Government to break up
the White League or any kindred asso
ciation, if found to exist in the State, to
punish the offenders, and to call upon
the Legislature, now in session, to pass
stringent laws to that end. It must be a
great satisfaction to President Grant to
find in Arkansas at least there is no occa
sion for the interference of the Federal
troops with State affairs, but that the
Governor and the Legislature have the
power and the will to enforce the laws
aud preserve the public peace.
These willing witnesses who were so
ready to endure the slanders of Bully
Sheridan will now have to prove their
statements to be true, or stand before the
country as voluntary villifiers, no more
worthy of belief than Sheridan himself.
A Call for the Documents.
The New York Tribune wants more
light. It says: “General Grant informs
the Senate that he gave no specific orders
for the use of troops the other day in ex
pelling persons from the Louisiana Leg
islature; the army acted under general
instructions issued last September, and
still in force. He is good enough to say
that he deprecates ‘military interference
with the organization of a State Legisla
ture;’ but he finds no fault with the
troops, and virtually acknowledges that
they were justified in their action by the
tenor of their instructions. Of this we
have no doubt. General Emory is too
good a soldier and careful an adminis
trator to exceed his authority in a matter
of this kind.
“The President’s admissions make the
case more serious than it was before. So
he actually put the soldiers at the abso
lute disposal of William Pitt Kellogg four
months ago, and has never withdrawn
the authority he then delegated to that
so-called Governor. Mr. Kellogg
can repeat his operation to-morrow if he
so pleases. The army and navy of the
United States are at the beqk and call of
a political adventurer, who may use them
in tho breaking up of the Legislature
whenever that body makes itself obnox
ious to him. The interference on the 4th
instant was not an isolated outrage, but
part of a systematic and continuous
abuse of power.
“Congress should now call for copies
of all tho instructions issued by the Pres
ident or the Secretary of War to the
military commander at New Orleans, and
the orders from that officer to his subor
dinates. Let us have no half-way inquiry
into this grave affair. Military usurpa
tion in this Republic must be put a stop
to at once and forever.
The Herald thinks Mr. Wiltz’s request,
that since Mr. Grant declares that he did
not authorize the use of the troops to
break up the Louisiana Legislature, Mr.
Grant shall restore the status quo, is cal
culated to stagger that wise and benevo
lent man.
Why should it ? Has he not in his
message stated that he deprecates “ mili
tary interference with the organization
of a State Legislature,” and has not his
practice in Louisiana and other Southern
States shown that he will tolerate such
intervention only in the interest of his
own third-term faction? Things being to
his liking now in Louisiana, he cannot,
of course, permit Bully Sheridan to in
terfere any further with the organization
of the Legislature of that State.

Proceedings of the General Assembly.
The New York Sun asks: Is it not
a singular thing that a clergyman of the
Congregational Church who professedly
teaches that through Christ is the only
way of salvation, should have written to
his friend, who had said, “I am not a
Christian but a heathen,” such words
as these: “Oh! my beloved Frank,
I shall know you there, aud forever hold
that fellowship with you, and look back
and smile at the past ?”
At present the Republican party, in the
showing of Senator Logan, assumes a queer
attitude. It came into power some years
since as the exclusive possessor of all the
public virtue and with a mission to drive
out the evil spirit; but now if it can find
a Democratic precedent for the act it
commits it considers the act justified. Is
the thing wrong? Oh, no; for “the Dem
ocrats did it.”
Mr. Logan, m his speech before the
Senate on Thursday, said that the de
maud for the withdrawal of the troops
from New Orleans was like the demand
for the withdrawal of the troops from
Fort Sumter in 1881, The New York
Herald thinks an argument based upon
such a view is hardly worth the trouble
of refutation.
The New York Herald says: There has
been no more shameful fact in the whole
Beecher-Tiiton history than the parade
in court of the two women most inter
ested in the case. That sacrifice of two
souls for the sak<3 of effect on the jury
is more cruel and terrible than all that
went before.
Banditti.—The keeper of the parish
prison of New Orleans publishes a list of
the murderers recently in his charge aud
the r political standing. They number
seventy-four. Fifty are Radicals. Seven
of these assassins are colored women And
twenty-three colored men.
The Detroit Free Press: “It is said
that a man can make a fool of himself
cheaper in Washington than in any other
city in America.” It would be well for
the country if the men who get to Wash
ington now-a-days made themselves noth
ing worse than fools.
Kellogg’s Legislature seems to be of
the opinion that Pinchback’s case will be
stronger for re-election; but if Finch-
back needs this can Kellogg get on with
out it ?

The Congressional Investigation.
A Washington special to the Courier-
Journal says: “In the House of Rep
resentatives the tactics of the Republi
cans were less violent, but more disingen
uous even than-.in the Senate. Their
great effort and endeavor just now is to
keep back from the country and if possi
ble wholly suppress the report of the sub
committee (composed of Messrs. Potter,
Foster and Phelps) which visited Louis
iana. The President does not want the
document printed, fbecause it would give
the lie to the brazen concoction of malice
he has just sent to Congress, and per
haps ultimately arrest some of the illicit
gains which his connections and friends
are filching from the people of Louisiana.
The full Committee on Louisiana Affairs
is composed of Messrs. George F. Hoar,
Frye of Maine, Wheeler of New York,
Marshall of Illinois, Foster of Ohio,
Phelps of New Jersey and Potter of New
York.
“ Hoar and his set of the committee
want the sub-committee, which has just
been to New Orleans and made its re
port, to go back there and go over their
work. This is in obedience to Gov. Kel-
logg’s telegram, and if carried out would,
of course, go far to discredit the report
already made by Foster, Phelps and Pot
ter, which knocks the ground from under
the lying documents prepared by Mr. At
tomey General Williams. It is not likely
that this insult to the sub-committee can
be carried out, and therefore there is an
other dodge ready to keep the report
from getting to the public, which
is for Hoar & Co. to pretend that it
is necessary for them to have the
testimony printed and ready by them
before they can agree to a report. Mean
time every effort will be made by party
pressure to modify Foster’s position. The
situation is well calculated to test the
backbone which his friends claim for him.
The report of the sub-committee is re.
garded as positively fatal to the Republi
can defense set up for Grant and Sher
idan.”
A Bloodhound of Zion.—The North
western Christian Advocate, a very reli
gious paper published in Chicago, con
ceives it to be in the line of its duty to
Christianize the world by preaching thus:
“The government must put its strong
hand on all revolters, and, all Southern
or Northern protests to the contrary not
withstanding, order must reign in the
South. If the Administration will be
fair and firm, the people will stand by it
to the last extremity. This is not a ques
tion of paramount interest to the poli
tician, and of no interest to the church.
It is rather the crowning earthly question
for the Christian citizen who is plucky
enough and wise enough to pray and
fight for his country for the church’s
sake. Knowing the madness of disap
pointed men, and the depth of rascally,
cowardly selfishness in the mere poli
tician, we do indeed smell a danger in
the issue of the past week. The churches
in the South once made rebellion possi
ble there, and they are not idle now. If
they foment revolt yonder, we certainly
are pardonable for resisting here. Face
tne issue, forward correct sentiment on
the subject and perchance the danger will
take warning and sink back into its den.
We were caught napping the last time;
let us be wide awake this time.”

A Premeditated Outrage.
The text of the more important docu

fending his latest and grossest act of
despotism in Louisiana, begins to appear
in the Northern papers, and in the masa
of shameful material we find one fact of
crowning infamy. It is in the shape of
a secret letter now first brought to light,
the striking portions of which are as fol
lows :
[confidential.]
War Department, >
Washington City, Dec. 24, 1874.)"
General P. H. Sheridan, Chicago, IU.:
General—The President sent for me
this morning, and desires me to say to
you that he wishes you to visit the States
of Louisiana and Mississippi, and espe
cially New Orleans, in Louisiana, and
Vicksburg and Jackson, in Mississippi,
and ascertain for yourself, and for his
information the general condition of
matters in those localities. You need
not confine your visit to the States of
Louisiana and Mississippi, and may ex
tend your trip to other States, Alabamp,
Ac., if yon see proper; nor need you
confine your visit in the States of Lou
isiana and Mississippi to the places
named. What the President desires is
to ascertain the true condition of affairs,
and to receive such suggestions from
you as you may deem advisable and judi
cious.
This is a fine picture of the way the
governmental powers of the United States
are abused and prostituted by the present
administration. The second officer of
tho army is sent as a spy and incendiary
throughout the South, and the President
who sends him stands ready to model
his executive recommendations on his
man Friday’s sly and venomous reports.
It will be seen that the letter bears date
the 24th of last December, showing
preconcerted plot to excite trouble. Not
being able to find the outrages he was
sent to seek Sheridan commits one him
self, and then thinks it an “advisable
and judicious suggestion” that Grant
should empower him to murder the citi
zens of Louisiana by martial law. It will
further be noticed iu this atrocious letter
that Grant tells Sheridan, “You need not
confine your visit to the States of Louis
iana and Mississippi, and may extend
your trip to other States—Alabama, Ac.—
if you see proper.” What does the “Ac.”
mean here? Is it Georgia that is in
tended, and were these secret instruc
tions to spy out the land meant to send a
corps of military detectives prowling
about through our borders?
The State of Georgia is now in a
condition of profound peace; the most
industrious incendiary and make-bate
that could be sent here could not find an
outrage, unless he first committed it, and
we once more call the attention of the
whole country to this indisputable fact.
Alabama is equally quiet,and so is Florida.
Why, then, not a mouth since, did Grant
tell Sheridan he need not stop at Louisi
ana, but may continue his tour “to other
States, Alabama, Ac?” The answer is
evident. It was meant by this malignant
letter that Sheridan should sweep like a
fire-brand from Louisiana to Georgia, and
in each State trample down itH rising
prosperity, harrass and exasperate to
madness its quiet population, and con
vert its present peace and good credit
into a hell upon earth.—Augusta Chron
icle.
Two Wats of Solving a Problem.—
General Sherman is reported as saying:
“There is a great problem lying back of
all these troubles. The making of laws
taxing a people by a party that pays little
or no taxes is a subject which needs to
be handled with great delicacy.” Pack
ard, on the other hand, writes to Grant
that “the political problem in Louisiana
is to be mastered chiefly by 85,000 negro
votes,” who belong altogether to the
party which pays no taxes. Grant sides
with Packard, as he sides with Shepherd
in the District of Columbia, and sends
down General Sheridan and the army
find navy of the United States to cut the
Gordian knot with the rude edge of the
sword. Tlie people of the South tell
Grant, as their fathers in 1775 told
George III., that they will not be taxed
without representation. Grant, imitating
his predecessor, declares that they shall,
and sends the army and navy to enforce
his declaration. So the old issue is
joined agfiin, and God defend the right!—

THE BEST ADVICE
That can be given to persons suffering with Dys
pepsia, Bilious Complaint, Colic, Consumption,
?ick Headache, Fever and Ague, Nervous Debil
ity, or any Disorders affecting the Stomach, the
Liver or Kidneys, is to tone, cleanse and regulate
the important organs by the use of
Dr. Tull’s Vegetable Liver Pills.
They act very mildly, yet thoroughly restore
the functiona* action of the digestive organs and
the intestine^, and renovate tne whole system.
They produce neither nausea, griping or weak
ness, and may be taken at any time without
change of diet or occupation.
Price 25 cents a box. Sold by all druggists.

Pennsylvania Enters Her Protest—
Harrisburg, Penn., January 12.—The
House of Representatives to-day adopted
the following resolutions on Louisiana af
fairs by a strict party vote—102 Demo
crate to 85 Republicans:
Resolved, That this House of Repre
sentatives of Pennsylvania, speaking for
the people, do solemnly protest against so
heinous an abuse of the power committed
to the President; that we protest against
it as a precedent which substitutes the
will of the Executive and Federal bayonets
for the functions of the Legislature in de
termining the qualification of its mem
bers, endangering personal liberty and
imperiling free government.
Resolved, That we commend the for
bearance exercised by those whose rights
were so unconstitutionally violated. We
assure them of the sympathy felt for them
by all who are zealous of the preservation
of the principles of civil liberty upon
which our government is founded.
Resolved, That copies of the foregoing
be forwarded by the Speaker of this
House to the President of the United
States, Senators and Representatives in
Congress from this State and to the Gov
ernors of the several States.
