THURSDAY,

The IVcw Orielins JBiiat. Thcro are 4|^^pag£S in th« annals of this country than the \oa» upon wbich is written tho history^ 'of tho Great" Riot at Kow Orleans. sCDhoOangrossionaliQommittoo has been in tfcfe .&ieatrfe of this dreadful and -bloody crlmo, heard all the evidence bearing upon ihe saj^e, and havo.maile §tt:r©po£t td fc^%re8S, 0§tal^f8tiirtg bo-

yond a doubt'the fftcVtfcaF tfco whole

rwas

a

cold-blooded murder, malicious homicidp," deliberately planned, and, ,in all things, executed according to tth« plan. Yet, no one baa been punched no, not even arrested and, ^vorse still, not even censured.

The .whole bloody butchery,,which Gen. Sheridan says was deliberate murder by wholesalo, exceeding in cruelty

and

barbarity the massacre of

'Fort Pillow by tho infamous Forrest, has been treated by the rebel press at the South, and the Copperhead press Nortb as ft

mere

peccadillo, or openly

'approved and applauded. Such things show at ohce the utter unfitness of the rebel States for rc-ad-•mission to representation in Congress. "With tho military withdrawn, no Un"ion man coulij lfve in the South—all would have to leave. Such are the facts established by the report of the

Commitiee. The report is too long for publication in our columns, but we commend it to the perusal of all who can procure a copy.

The committee concluded their re-

legislate as to secure to the people ot Louisiana a Republican form of government. The condition of things existing there cannot continue consistently with the safety, security or peace of loyal men. Since the surrender of the rebel armies, rebellion has assumed another form, and now controls tho Government through the same agencies that led those armies in time of war. That Congressional action sho'd bo had is settled by the fact, not opinion. When men arc drivon from their homes, their lives threatened, and property destroyed when in business they are proscribed when recent rebels hold all places of trust, and having power uso it to oppress and punish Joyal men, because they have been and are loyal when the whole body of colored men, who have never flinchcd from duty as Radical loyalists, when the days were gloomiest and the dangers greatest in the time of war, are persecuted by system, hunted like wild beasts, and slaughtered without mercy and with entire impunity from punishment, there is no room left for doubt that some legislative remedy should be applied. These are matters of fact and not of opinion, and in our judgement, but ono coux-se is open, and should be pursued without hesitation or delay, according to the judgement of all who have felt tho presence of tho rebel rule, and have stood firmly and fearlessly for tho Union when treason was nearest to success whose judgement given upon oath is based upon facts, within personal experience who give opinions resting on knowledge, and speak of »vhat they have seen and know, the present civil government of Lousisiana, existing without sanction of national law, should be suspended by act of Congress and a provisional government established and maintained by military power until the time has come when Louisiana is controlled, by loj*al men, and may 'be. restored to-her former relations to the Union without endangering its security and peace." The report is accompanied by a bill providing for the appointment of

officers

for the .organ­

ization by the Pi'e&ident, and provides that rebels shall be enfranchised, by: going through a naturalization process •—taking out papers from. :United States

T, SOME

people try to make themselves

"and others look respectablei thefed days by asserting that Gcoi'ge Washington was "the greatest rebel the world ever produced.'* George Washington rebelled against tyranny, to establish a freo government and, therefore, those who rebel against free government, rebel to overthrow what Washjngtpn rebelled to establish—are in the same category with Washington. Such is the

grand attempt of modern reb­

els to jid themselves of the o(Jiuni of treason.

Banks, JLsingham and liaymond, men of strong minds and lar-gfe experience, crippled legislation by efforts at compromise they lingered too long in the murky atmosphere of compromise, and failed to [reach the great rock of principle, whoso summit is bathed in the sunlight of eternal truth. For a time it seemed as if the.great, expounder and leader in the House, Thad.

in favoi* of

folding thoir arms. They say, "Wo arc in tho poivor of theso people, let them do as they ploase." Ido not believe in any such doctriiio, I am not OJIO' of tho dignity sorL If have, believed in our doing something for ourselves. I have believed in indicating to tho people that thereiis no sullonness, at least on the part of tho peoplo of the South that we

were:

prepared

to give them, all honorable guarantees to secure their rights in tho Government, and .when wo did so we at least challenged the respect, of the honest portion, of that party. I. have been myself for two long years laboring to produce that result. Whether it will follow I do not know,. In taking the position I now occupy, it was to savo the people of South Carolina, and I intend to continue to serve them and, notwithstanding the growl of grumblers, 1 shall not be swayed from the performance of my duty on that line. If it accomplishes tho results hoped for, I shall be. fully compensated for any sacrifice tliat may haye been made. If it fails, I shall feel that any responsibility for tho further humiliation and oppression of South Carolina does not lie at my door. [Applause.]

Statistics of Fariu laborers' Wages. The report of agriculturo for January contains an elaborate compilation of the statistics of the wages of farm laborers throughout tho country. It is based on the original returns from every State in the Union, almost every county being represented in a portion of them. It also includes the Territories. The average rate of wages for white labor, without board, is $28 per month—$15 50 per month with board. The average rate of freedmen's labor is §16 with board furnished, §9 75. The board usually furnished the latter is a peck of corn meal, and a pound and a half of meat. The highest rate for States is in California, which is about? §45'„ Massachusetts pa}rs tho noxt highest—838. The average rate for 'the eastern States is §38 30. In the middle States, $30 07 in the western States $28 90, and in the southern States for freedmen, §16. The increase in tho price of labor since 1860 is about fifty per cent., since 1835, upon

Carey's estimate, seventy per cent. The rate of wages, with board, of the States forming the belt from Pennsylvania to Iowa varies but twenty-four cents, ranging from 818 72 to §18 96.

The adviccs from Mexico, which we this morning publish, cannot but cheer the hearts of all who wish well to tho republican cause in that unhappy country. The whole expeditionary corps has begun its expedition back to France, the City of Mexico having boon Evacuated on tho 6th inst. The pseudo Emperor is trying to conciliate the peoplo by westing a Mexican uniform, and reviewing in the streets what Mexican followers lie can muster. It will not avail. He could not, at tho start, get along without Frcnch and Austrian aid, and nO'w that, this has been withdrawn, ho will do best to follow it* homeward march, and console himself for the seeming loss of an empire he never really had, by tho repossession of his amiable wife, who is reported to have recovered her sanity, a good proof of which is that she stays at home. But tho best news of all is tfte confirmed report of tho utter rout of Miramon's army, and the capture Of all its valuable property. Tho Republican cause brightens day by day, and soon we

to announce its com­

Showers.

A comparison of the whole number of meteors obseryed with the numerical results of previous showers, show that this shower was far

less

significant

than some of its predecessors. Whether parts of the world witnessed a grander phase in the display than wo in England did, we cap.not say, for there is at presont no authentic information on the point. M. Coulvier Gravier, who ought to be an authority, at a recent sitting of the French Academy of Sciences, suggested that the maximum display, of,the epoch might be expected in November, 1S67, because, he said the really great showers are 34 years apart, instead of 33, and the last of these was that.-of 1833. And moreover, he called attention to the- fact that every very grand shower is proceeded by ono not so grand the year before it. This was tho case in 1832-3 whether it will be so this time wo must wait till next November to learn .— The Gentleman's Magazine.

THE BOLTING LAW.—This

important

measure, which punishes b61ting members, has finally passed both houses of our Legislature. .It nails the ^minority to their seats and 6ompels their presence during' legislation. A good law, and one which.'8b'Ou.ld never be repealed.

LIQUOR LEGISLATION.

Tho friends of tornpefance. are endeavoring to securo some legislation to restrict the traffic in ardent spirits. It is confidentijjbxpccted that somothing will bo eTOcted greatly in advance of anything achiovcd in this State since our '-Maine Law" was declared "unconstitutional" se.^pral years ao-o. It is now pi'oposed to enact a law allowing County Commissioners to license only such persons as can present a petition to that effect, signed bv a majority ot the legal voters of Llio locality whoro tho liquor is to bo sold. This measure has the appearance of being eminently democratic in its character, since,it loaves the entiro question in tho people's hands to bo determined by the will of tho majority. By this act tho liquor seller will becomo an elective1Officer in tho community where, the peoplo think they need, and can Support such a functionary. Ho will bo found useful in preparing businesa-for other officers, such as policemen, constables and justices of the peaco.

The proposed temperance law is thought to be eminently democratic in its provisions, -anti yet it has not tho cordial support of the Democratic party. The adherents of this almost defunct organization, not being sufficiently numerous to make regular and respectable battlo, content themselves with a sortof guerrilla warfare against such' measures as their instincts and traditions teach them to oppose.— They are sometiihes brought down by Republican sharp-shootors so suddenly and summarily as to prove a warning to all kindred adventurers. When tho Liquor bill was under consideration, Mr. Caaon, Republican Senator from, Boono county, ^suggested that thero was. ono provision for which public sentiment was hardly yet propared. "When do you suppose public sentimont will bo prepared for it?r' interrupted a Domocratic Senator.— "When tbe-Democratic party is forgotten was the prompt and effective reply, under which the inquiring membor sank to his seat.

Tho period when tho Democratic party shall be numbered among the forgotten things of the past, is looked down to as "the good time coming'' by all loyal Iiidiania-ns. This State has so long groaned under tho misrule of that, corrupt organization, that we have an inexpressible horror of our okl bondage, and can scarcely assure ourselves that wo are shTo until our

forgotten'.

Wo have by the cable exciting news of Fenian movoments in Ireland. A skirmish tooic place near Valentia, where a coast guard and policemen were killed. Tho Fenians are said to have committed many depredations. They were, however, pursuod and surrounded by the Government troops, and a large number of them captured. The troubles are now thought to be at an end. The cable also brings us the text of Napoleon's speech to the French Corps Legislatif. Thero has been a frightful earthquake on tho Greek island of Cephalonia Tho Cretan revolt begins to look hopoful. The olactions in Prussia have resulted in Liberal triumphs. Bismarck was elected Deputy from ton districts. Five twenties closed in.JLondon on Saturday at 73i.

The r.ows by the cable gives the whole history of tho recent disturbance. Poor Pat was betrayed by Bridget, and England conquered him without half trying. The King consort of Spain has been exiled The Ivirig of Prussia is going visiting, and Bismark is going to Stutgardt on business.

Some montha since,.,H. W. Cook, of Bristol, 111., Jfenry 'Stanley, pf New York, and a boy named Louig Noo3: also of the lat ter place, went to Turkey, and formed the insane project qf travelling without,passports, or protection ofany kind, overlaudtoChina., They had no knowledge of the language of tho country through which they were to pass, and, part of their money was in greenbacks and the remainder in American gold, neither of: which are current in Asia. They, did not get very far, tor. thoy were assaulted by a gang of Turkish ruffians, who robbed them, besides committing horrible outrages on tho boy. Through the in-strumentality-of our Minister at: iConstantinople, the robbers Jiaye been. arretted, and sentenced to five years' hard labor. The. three assailants of the boy are to be executed, and. the Turkish authorities will pay jQXQZ the §4,000 stolen from the party.r «,*

There was*no fire in the room that Dr. Whiteside could see, and certainly none near tho horrible por-psc. A revolver was found beside it, but all the charges were in it, and no marks of inj-uries, except from the fire, wero discovered stf that the death could not have been caused by suicide. ^But Jf it had been, the lips burned entirely off, and the crisped tongue, threap and nose, would have been still morei inexplicable, as the fire was manifestly of very, reccnt occurrence—the clothes still burning—and it could not have been applied after death by some other person, without detection, or some /maili.-or, other that would indicate where the fire came from, and how it was used. But if it could have been thus applied, it is impossible to believe that it was, for there could be no motive to burn a dead man, especially about tho mouth and nose. The same fact of the singular character and locality of the burning, involving only the air passages, precludes all idea of a death by violence. iSTo murderer or robber would try to kill a man by setting him on fire or if ho should, he would not, and could not,., put fire to his mouth and nose only. No hypothesis of murder seems to bo tenable, and that of suicide is even more absurd. AVe must therefore conclude that tho death was caused by spontaneous combustion, or by tho burning of inflammable gase^ generatod in tho whisky rotted carcass, and escaping by the lungs and air, passages. This might havo been caused by an attempt to light a cigar with a match .or other flame. There are several authenticated cases of spontaneous combustion on record,, .as our physicians.Jvnbw.---
