dier General) has arrested m tstireveport, Li., some of the best citizens ofthe Stale Messrs. Pike, Jacobs, 11. tr-
ail, 1JihIm.iv, Mc Williams and nieutyothers. The dwg" against them istreaoi against the United Slates Gov-ernment in that they have violatedthe Enforcement act. Merriil swearsthat these citizens 'did each and"every one of them, conspire to iu-- "
liuiidate and control huiiu j ohs kVtal-"itie- d
voters ii said district in ojLS'"cising Ihe right of suffrage, by" threatening to deprive said voters of'employ men t, by" rel using to w
contracts with said voter tor' labor, in violation of a statute ot theUnited Slates." Whereupon Com-missioners Levis.se issues his wsrants,and Merriil arrests Ibe whole batch.
Now, it is proper the readers ofThe World should understand thesort of treason for which Merrill,under sanction of United State stat-ute, lm arrested these citizens.Shreveport is iu au exclusively cot-ton country, ami I lie labor contra elsmade there are for work in the cot-to- n
Held. These contracts are of twooris. First, between Ihe owner 01 a
plantation. and the hands employed totill it. The owner agree with hishand to furnish tools, machinery,mules, and other stock and iheir lend,seed and fertilisers, provisions torhands, clothes, pocket money, every-thing, provided the negroes will cul-tivate and secure the crop, and yiu itout and bale-i- afterwards, share andshare-aliku- . lie advances everything
tiie system is entirely a credit sys-tem and if his hands after liiug 011
him from February to -- September,choote to leave as the cotton is open-ing, he must lose, hot only bis cropbut all his advances made upon thestrength of his-cro- p. Yet it is trea-son against the United States Gov-ernment for a planter, so situated, tochoose his hands to exercise a-.- y dis-cretion iu selecting Ihe individual olwhom he must extend this enormousand perilous credit.
The otlters'sort of eoittr.-te- whichMerrill construes H to be treason tohave any discretion about is betweenthe atockeepnrs and lh laborers. AiiciM'o rents so muck cotton laud. Hehas nothing, but he expects to makefrom the land so many bales of cottonus his share of (he crop. The nun herents Irom furuiilie sed, 11, tile, andplouirh ; but will not lurnnhmeal, clothing, tobacco, fcc Unlessthe laborer can get these be must stopwork. Accordingly, he contracts withA ' storekeeper, opens a credit accountwith him to run nine or ten months,by which he is to receive his suppliesand provisions, have them advancedto him, upon condition that, when thenegro's crop i made he is to pay thestorekeeper's bill in cotton ginned orunriuned. It is treason according toMajor Merrill, constructive of theEnforcement act, for the storekeeperto exercise any discretion as to whichnegro he will trust and which he willnot trust.
Bring the matter home. Imagine amajor of cavalry swearing out a war-rant against and arresting the proprie-tor of tbe Jtepublic, because he hasdismissed- - a drunken "rat" ofa com-positor who is a Radical voter, "and"thereby threatening to deprive such'voters ot employment." ImagineMajor Merrill taking A. T. Stewartoil to the Tombs for refusing to per-mit oue of G rant's Custom-llous- e of-ficers to open an indefinite accountwith him upon the strength of pros-pective wages aud "knock-downs,- "
thereby " threatening to refuse to re-new (he contract with said voter lorlabor." But this is precisely whatMajor Merrill is doing in Louisana,under the pretence of securing the en-
forcement of the fourteenth amend-ment to the Constitution World.
Why Is It? Why is it that nineyears alter the close of- - the war troopsshould be needed to do police duty iuLouisiana, Sou th Carolina and Ala-bama? Are they not completely un-der Republican rule? After this utterfailure to "establish justice aud securedomestic tranquility" the party inpower had better prepare to retire audlet the Democratic party try theirhand. ' It is certain thata parly whichiu addition to fostering the CreditMobilier, back-pa- y grabs, CustomHouse abuses, Jaynes and Sanbornand third term projects, is incapableof keeping order in States governedby Republican officials without theaid of the army, 1 not fit. to be trustedwith the destinies of this country.
A year ago or so it was pronounc-ed that the Democratic party wasdead, yet 011 and alter the 1st of Jan-uary next the following States willhave Democratic Governors:
New Hampshire, Massachn setts.Connecticut, New York,New Jersey, Delaware,Murylaud, Wc-- t Virginia,Virginia, (ieurgia,Alnlmmu. Texas,Arkau$as, Tennessee,Kentucky, Ohio,Indiana, MIsKOliri,Wisconsin, Oregon,Nevada.
.Here are twenty-on- e DemocraticGovernors in thirty-seve- n States;aud it there had beeu a general elec-tbi- s
year several more would havebeen chosen. Pretty good for a deadparly.

Now tbe Democratselect their State ticket, and instead offive Congressmen, have sixteen ofthe twenty-seven- .

ranging from 15 to 24 per ceat butnow they are "protected" by a tarifffrom 33 to 140 per cent. The fact isthat manufacturers in using ''protect-ed" raw material can not compete withthose of other countries in the foreign j
markets, and the sale of Americangoods is confined to Ibe United States ;
Bunco the demand is not sufficient tokeep the factories running. For
in 1850, over ten million dol- -'
lars' worth ot American cotton man- -
ufactnres were sold in foreign markets,but the amount this year is only a tr;-fl- c
over three millions. Is it anywonder that there is a surfeit of p?e- -
ductions aud that our home marketsare overstocked ? The World fromwhich paper the foregoing figures aretaken, says :
Can a similarly disgraceful result beshown for the same period in the his- -
tory of any other country outside ofour own ? Or can any one wonderthat the working classes are plungedin distress? The protected rnauutac- -
turers have watered their stocks as inMassachusetts, where the original $10of paid up slock represents hundredsof dollars ; they have had laws passedfor their special benefit to make goodsdear, aud have divided 100 per cent,profits annually. Tney have also giventhe deluded white slaves a pittanceout of their earnings, aud now whengrain sells below its coat of produc-tion, when cotton is lower than at anytime since the war, aud the wholecountry is squeezed dry, these pro-tected manufacturers have, but oneway to recuperate themselves. Attbe expense of their deluded whiteslaves they shorten the weekly laborby one-thir- d, and the starving opera-liv- e
who earned four weeks ago $6 aweek to maintain his family ot per-haps five or six souls must now becontent to starve on $4 a week.
The latest machiuery to do awaywith the use of ice, is of Cincinnatiinvention. The machine essentiallyconsists of two cylinders, an upperand lower one. In the lower one theair Is compressed under a pressure ofthirty-fiv- e pounds to the square inch.From this cylinder the compressedair is passed iu a condenser, in whichtbe beat is abstracted by means ofwater. It is then led into anothertank where it is deprived of its mois-ture. From this tank it is forced intothe upper cylinder, where it is ex-panded and ia led by means of largewooden pipes into tbe cellars. It hasjost been tested with satisfactory re-
mits.
Several Republican papers aremaking haste to retract compaign lieswhich they published, to the effectthat Got. Allen is intemperate in hishabits.

Mtfjssd prejudice, and it presents a picfor of hopeless despair. It has al- - f
ready touched, with its sorrow, every. . .
patriotic heart iu the laud. Ihe jour- -
nals of the highest character, represeu- -
ting the Republican party, notably theSFeW York Times, ate casting theirpowerful influence in behalf of theoppressed people. The details pub-
lished in the above mentioned jour-nal of Southern cruelties are hor-
rible.The civil powers, laws, courts, ju-
ries, judges aud other officers havebeen subordinate to partial law. Inevery county and city and villagethroughout Alabama, Louisi.ua, SoothCarolina, and Georgia, a militarysatrap over-awe- s the people and ruleswith a rod of iron. There is no ap-
peal against injustice' The peopleare neither safe iu their persons,houses, papers, and effects against un-
reasonable searches aud seizures. War-rau- ts
of arrest are issued unsupportedby oath or affirmation, aud withouteven probable cause. Citizens are
of liberty and property with-
out due process of law. Kxeotsivebait is required, excessive fines impos-ed, aud cruel aud unusual punishmentinflicted. A scene of wide-sprea- d
disorder exists.States are in the hands of robbers
and usurpers, society disorganized bybanditti, public credit destroyed, thefields of agriculture which should nowcontribute tboir wealth of cotton tothe prosperity of the country laidwaste, labor is oppressed and themarch of civilization itself turned backon the downward step to ruin. Thehorrible aud frightful details cannotall be'grren. Homes have no longersanctity. Neither the rich man'spalace nor the poor men's cottage es-
cape the general ruin. Women andchildren are driven from home andtreated with merciless brutality.
How long, how long is the countryto suffer? More than two hundredmillions of dollars have been stolenfrom these poor people. Tbe cry isstill tor vengeance. The world standsaghast at such scenes in a free coun-try. Tyranny points its lingers iu de-r- i
son at our boasted land of liberty,and triumphantly asks if this be lib-
erty and the South,how loug will it be before the Northma succumb ?
Far better for the United State,that the party Shibboleth should betreason aud punished with dealh.. Lib-erty aud mortality, aud national pros-perity are infinitely above all partyschemes and objects. Parties aud politics are becoming the deathly baue of
institutions, absorbing all thenPf1. sentiments, blunting the con
sciences and destroying the sensibili-ties of the people. The clash of armsIs no longer heard, but no olive branchis offered to a stricken people. Pul-
pits resound with the story of Divinelove, but vengeance and hatred stalkthrough the ruins of a once majesticcountry. The piteous plea for peacetrembles on tbe air, aud yet politicaldemagogues spurn it in a mad strag-gle to secure the triumph ot corrup-tion.
There is no danger of another civilwar. Slavery will never again pol-
lute the land with its touch. Statrswill no more be at war with Statesunless in far distant future a stillgreater calamity than that of the pastis in store lor the country. But op-
pression and wrong must sometimesbring their own punishment. It. is astrue in the political as in the moralworld, that there can be no prosperityfiunded on injustice and reared onviolation of God's commandments tomankind."
In-- the negotiation which proceededthe surrender at Appomattox Granturged L-- e to lsy down hi arms tothe end that peace might be restoredand useless sacrifice of lite avoided.The desire for peace was the burdenof Grant's demand, and he assuredLee that real peace could be purchas-ed by a frank surrender. The termsof surrender offered by Grant at Ap-pomattox on the 9th of April 1865,and accepted by Lee on tbe same daymerely required that the arms, artil-lery, and other public property of theConfederacy be turned over to Grant-- ;
that Lee's officers give their, individ-ual paroles not to take up arms againstthe Govorumeut of tbe United States,aud that regimental and company of-ficers sign a like parole for their men." This done, each officer and man will
be allowed to return to his home.ft not to be disturbed by tbe United"States authority so long as they ob-- "
serve their paroles, and the laws in" force where they may reside." Thispledge was given over Grant's ownsignature. He has kept It by lendinghimself mors readily than any otheruisu whom the Radical party couldbare made it tool to tbe persecutionof the men who accepted his pledgein good faith through the Radical pol-icy of reconstruction and the villiau-ou- s
enactments of Congress growingout of it. in the terms offered byGrant to Lee there was no intimationof the Enforcement acts, the CivilKights bill, aud other abominationwhich Grant baa since recommendedor upheld. If this be ibe good faithand the slraightforwaVd honesty ot asoldier, ihe military virtues arc notivl at they are popularly thought tobt World.

ing but a confession of tho murdererswill ever disclose, into a tannery fur-
nace with a pitchfork, where bis ai
were found yesterday morning.There are some reasons for beleiyingthat the horror of the murder was
nude matchless by pitching the victimwhile yet living into the fierce tire.

strous. Three men are arrested on
suspicion, the circumstantial evidenceagainst some oft them being eon sid-rsbl- e.
