WfE FAG END OF JOUVI l MLIM
Since the elevation of Senator
Pinchbeck to the position of Lieu- and
tenant Governor, the VIationid Fag wil
that disgraces the name of Repub- s
lican has poured forth a torrent of tiv
abuse and vilification against the a
new Lieutenant Gozernor unwar- dim
ranted by facts and unjiistified by pla
the ethics of decent journalism. In
that sheet falsehood has followed ezx
misrepresentation, and searcely has kn
one calumny gone out before an
other slander has followed it. Silent fall
contempt must cease to be dumb in the
the midst of such outrageous per- ten
secution. No one with manhood
beating at the heart can stand for
ever the rheum of a set of sneaks who s
whipped out of the Republican party nor
have found their only resource to d
consist in the vilest display of col
venom compatible with the viper, p
nor can reason produce silence, the
though its pure light shows us all,
I that personal vituperation is always pe
the low resort of those who have no a
other argument at their call, and is me
a characteristic of a blackguard. th
From the time Mr. Pinchback was of
pronounced Lieutenat Governor th:
until the very hour at which we wl
write, the Fag has not ceased to H
snarl and show its teeth which, in
making evident as it does that the Di
Fag End of the Republican party ro
have been so soundly beaten, that
pitching dirt is now their last hold,
yet calls for a rebuke from every Pt
man, interested in the extikpation
of all barbarism. The writers and ti(
promoters of such emanations live li,
in a glass house. W e know their i
record. If such were not the
cace t'ie great zeil in be
half of their present affiliation at
would lead, of itself, to suspicion.
Whatever Mr. Pinchback may have tL
done hastily, he has never sacrificed 11
his principles, his country, or his j
kind. Nor has he sold out his ad- al
herents or his friends. True he had el
always a contempt for a set of mean be
white men, who, while they curried hi
favor with him to procure political w
influence, at the same time would
hide to walk with him in the street.
He has even now a loathing for a h
hypocrite that disguises his malice h
in a fawning cant, and who only ii
shows the devil in his heart when a
E. it will no longer serve his purpose
to play the saint. Though willing ri
a to acknowledge the Providence of
God, Mr. Pinchback never carried a
the politician and the preacher un
w. der the same skull. A Republican of a
the straitest sect now, he was one in t
the past. He has never left his
home for a place which his people
i. refused to accord him. He is not
disappointed, nor is he suffering e
from a sad attack of veto. His
policy ii "reform" and already he t
has severed, pulled up by the roots
the "dead beats" of journalism in
this State. He would not entinue c
such an outrageous nuisante in the
premises of the Government. Here
is the cause of the whole business.
These journals so ruthlessly cut off
in the prime of life were the pap
upon which these people of the Fag
subsisted. As to any and all asper
ts sions on the ofticial conduct of Mr.
to Pinchback, we cast it in the teeth of
ry thosewbo utter it. The editor of the
he Fag tannot prove himself honest by
calling every other man a thief, nor
is it possible to show he ii right by
denouncing his opponents, as, in
the wrong. "He who first loses
he his temper has lost the battle also,"
the and if "gentlemen"' are made of such
material as showed itself in the
e colums of the Fag let us all travel
et in the opposite direction.
If "the Pinchback supporters rep
resent nothing in Louisiana," whom
do the Carter men represent? A
fugitive from his adopted State, this
Swould be Governor, aeording to
lew the Galveston papers, "l'eft his coun
Stry for his country's good." At
Shome he cannot command a corpo
Sof al'sb guard, and could not be elect
ed an acting sab-assistant deputy
i- constable. By his own confession
a heis "Jack of all trades, master of
m none." In the ecurse of a few years
ret he huaasuceeively appered as a
we psalm-inging hypocrite, a pettifog
ill ger, a false friend, a obbyia poli
ith tician and a newspaper alng-whan
dget. In all of these apacities the
a personal charaster of the man u a
traculent lick-piatt has ~aopped
[his out from hLe mnasktf a ~god per
dies pseee which fits him so badly that
like the jackaes who wdald wear the
lions skin, he cannot hide, do what
me he will, the as's ears.
ent Under wilful and peuaietent mis
of representation, distortion of the
truth, warping of published state
t ments and direct mainntions we
e have remained almost silent. Small

a self-styld inflated "Iepresenta- hear
tire man, whom antics and utter- an c
anes have for some so amused or ai
disgusted the observer of his die- ever
plays of ignorance, imbecility or app
malevolence. The most amusing and
exhibition of the deplorable lack of shei
knowledge he possesses, or the chat
depth of depravity to which he has mat
fallen, occurs in the latest effort of not
the Grand Err, at satire on Lieu- Is b
tenant Governor Pinchbeck. mai
Mr. Pinchback on assuming the he
position of President of the Senate, beo
said with reference to his predeces- clai
sor, "I am led to believe that Oscar Rig
J. Dunn, in the history of our I
country, stands to-day without a nov
peer, not only in America but in Sta
the civilized World." tom
To which the ignorant, incom- Re]
petent man of the Era complacently rea
says "We accept this acknowledg- of I
ment from him, regretting only
L. that he accorded it, after the death this
s of Governor Dunn, but better late ern
r than never." Great heavens, how, roe
e when and by what means, was J. Pi
0 H. Hurch ever authorized to speak ert
in a representative capacity for Mr. the
e Dunn But his presumptuous ar- lice
t rogance is. fully eqtalled by his I
ignorance of facts. sa
We are not aware how long the ele
y public men and the politics of spi
n Louisiana have engced the atten- set
d tion of this Apollo, but this de- for
e liverance betrays either an utter hit
ir ignorance of the earlier political re- pit
ie cord and connexion of the twt,
magnates referred to, or a wilful
attempt at the falciScation of the
n record. It is well known that in
`e the Republican party convention of qu
1868, Mr. Pinchback nominated O.
is J. Dann for Lieutenant Governor, en
and in presenting to and urging his sit
claims on the consideration of that go
botdy spoke of his choice in the in
Id highest terms. In the Senate over Pi
al which the late Lieutenant Governor
id presided, Mr. Pinehbaeck never lost so
an opportunity to support or to de
a fend hini, and the record shows
0e how frequently, and in what flatter- in
ly ing terms he referred to him. We in
en admonish this raw and rash recruit
se to the ranks of the villifiers not to
°g rush so madly, so blindly, so innn- a
of cenly on the bosses of the buckler pl
ed of trth.
2- But "dying men catch at straws,"
f and we find apt illustrations of this
t truth in the despairing manner, o
is and the convulsive grasp, in which at
le Burch, Carter, etc., attempt to e
lot destroy the confidence of the color- o
ng ed people in Lieutenant Governor o
[s Pinchback, than whose efforts in h4
he the interests of his race and the it
Republican partyt none of the ear- e
in lest, the most staunch, the most t
ne consistent, are more brilliant and it
be creditable. Might we ask where 01
re were the gang of traducers when
Pinchback, Dumas, Lewis, Barrett, tl
of Calliou, Carter, Davis, Antoine, o0
P Quinn and a host of other reFre- a
g sentative colored men in truth and o

the opening of the present session
of the Senate the presentation of a
petition of colored citizens of the pul
O United States praying for the ack- utt

before the law. We hope that the fu
Senate and House of Repesentatives le
L will be overwhelmed with petitions t
from colored people asking for the aI
passage of Mr. Shaner's bill supple- ti

citizens of the United States, and as
a portion of her brave defenders in of
time of peril, we have a right to de

as incapable of learning anything

suppose that the severe penalty
Id which is imposed upon their rail

carriers for refusing to colored men
of equal rights with other citizens,
