Daily Gazette and Comet from Baton Rouge, Louisiana • 2

Cjje fatlg Cornet, BATON JAN. 29, 1856. i Legislature met yesterday, at the usual hour. There was nothing ot any importance done, except the election of a State Printer- Messrs- La Semt of the New Oi leans Courier, were elected by a very large vote" Bibicai. Language applied and Thi-uokry Under the above head, the dominent, party organ, makes use of unkind strictures, in reference to remarks make by thfrHon.

D. F. Kenner in the Senate on Friday, in behalf" as the editor says of "Messrs. Burke Co. The contested elections," was the subjcct, and in his capacity as a Senator, and not as a citizen, Mr.

Kenner made some eloquent remarks. If he was could not have been expected a man who would be tame, when conscious of his right, is no a ono does not deserve to represent the American people. Does any forked radish question the motives of Mr. or any other member of the American party in the Senate If so, let them make a personal attact. Mr.

Kenner, is by for tune removed from the temptations which small politicians are exposed and which too often cause their souls to creep out of their casings. Hence is be entitled to speak emphatically" and by bis eloquence and logic generally commands attention in an ordinary crowd, which is not the character of the body in which he now is. Mr. Kenner, did not speak for Messrs. Glendy Burke nor for the Thugs," or the Know Nothings be spoke as an American citizen, a Senator and a representative of nin teen thousand of the freemen of the State of Louisiana.

Such a one with such a theme, generally commands the attention, even of a mixed auditory. Mu. P. infree is out in a letter to the Dem. Advocate in answer to an insinuating article, as W.

calls it, published in the Sugar Planter. The article iu question, is on that interesting Rewards," which are the only stimulants to virtue in a moral ago like this. The Planter it seems is a Biblical reader, and awer of that beautiful passage which says the laborer is worthy of his hire." Such being the fact the Planter wonders why ex-Whigs, ex-Know Nothings and others, who are ex-every thing, have not been properly rewarded. The Planter, has discovered that some of them who have done remarkable good service, have uot been paid for the same. We read the article and did not see the most distant allusion to our friend Were we in his place, we would be satisfied for the present, with the proceeds derived from the publication of that exemplary sheet the True American.

It would please us much for Phillip to define his present political position and send it in to this immaculate paper for publication. A Contrast a contrast the two following cases present! John M. Srock, the defaulting treasurer of Holmes county, Ohio, ran away with 622,000 of the public money. lie was pursued to Europe, captured, and brought back, tried, convicted and sentenced to ono year's imprisonment in the Penitentiary. Charles B.

Smith, a resident of the same county, about the same time borrowed a horse worth about $75, rode him to a neighboring town, sold him, pocketed the money, was pursued, caught, tried, convicted, and sentaneed to the Penitentiary tor three TDelta. No contrast. The cases are not paralel. One is graud larceny which is honorable in the eyes of modern law, and the other petit larceny for which many members of the Smith family have gone to the pillony and the Penitentiary. i The Inauguration Ceremonies.

At an early hour yesterday, (Monday) the whole city was astir with preparations for the inauguration ceriDonies. The day was as fair as the ungrateful heart of man could desire. The packets arriving in the morning brought up two or three volunteer companies from New and strangers were running to and fro, to earn something of the programme, and no little confusion followed, owing to the short notice allowed the committee to make preparations. How the procession would form, when and where they would march to were questions none could answeT all were agreed however that the place for the body to gether head, was Church street, in front of the Harney house. At 11 o'clock, Capt.

Barry, U. 8. made his appearance, with his well desciplined corps. One of the New Orleans companies, was shortly after on the ground. The two fire companies, the Knights of Jerico and the Masonic fraferity together with a large concourse of citizens, filled the street.

After waiting some time, a military escort came down Lafayette, with Governor P. O. Hebert and the Hon R. C. Wickliff Governor elect.

Under command of Col. C. C. Biberon Marshall of the day procession moved to the much to the surprise of every one that body was found in joint session, hard at the labor of legislative business. His Excellency P.

O. Hebert and his successor, soon made their appearance in the speaker 's stand. Just then, we heard an involuntary and simultaneous exclamtion, on the part of several fair ladies into whose presence we had been jammed by the crowd, highly flattering to the personel of the gentleman who has just been invested with purple of office. It would be out of place here, and a breach of politeneos 011 our part, to give the language and describe the looks of the party we refer to. Gov.

Ilebjrt, with much feeling rose and make a few eloquent extemporary tremulous voice and flashing eye, said much in a language which mere words cannot embody he was proud of the honor that had been conferred upon discharged his duties with the best of his abilities for the public weal and and had every confidence in transferring the seal of office to his successor that he would reflect honor and credit on the exalted position. Governor Wickliff then took the oath of office, and after him the Lieut. Mouton. Gov. Wickliff then delivered an address to the audience of about a half hours length.

From our position we could notgeather give a synopsis. The manuscript has been handed to our confreres in Church street, and will appear simultaneously with this sheet. The procession escorted Gov. Hebert to his marched jdown North Boulevard and Main, to Third street, to the temporary residence of the Governor. The several societies and companies then dispered with the crowd.

In common with a number, wo regret that the crowd was so dense that the young composed the most interesting branch the Knights of Jerico, could not get into the hall. The music of the Governor Band, with which the day was made melodious was of the finest character. The company is one of the permanent institution ot our city apd should be patronized. The Madrid Gazette of Deccmber 12th, contains a royal decree sanctioning the bill adopted by the Cortes, which Spain an inviolable asylum for foreigners, and that the giving up of political refugees shall never be consented to in any treaty for the extradition of criminals Principles and Profession, Politicians and Party. man who cultivates a serious turn of mind, may wash his cheeks with rivers of brimey tears until old age comes to mako his the living emlodymeut of a death's He may wet linen and call on his washerwoman, fur a dozen more each west, and yet when he gets through with life he comes to yeild up ghost as (thankiieaven for it) smart men as well as fools have to do, he has effected nothing; he is 110 arid the world is no belter ior it.

We ground our happiness hero, and expectations of joy hereafter, on a light heart, such as may at any time be moved by the god Monius. We like to laugh at folly; smile at the indiscretion of youth, and grin to our ears' extremities at the transparent knavery of the only genuinc patriots, in the whole army of sword swallowing politicians, and dancers up to the music set music, as comes from the wind valves of a special organ, to make the verdant air mellifuluous and melodious. Mr. Sherman a great man he has often said so himself; but we were skeptical and would not believe. Now, we are en tircly satisfied and will most cheerfully sign any certificate in the whole book of forms.

Sherman entitled to immortal glory, and should (when.death pleases to knock at his door) bo transported into immortal bliss, on the right hand of old Doctor Jacob Townscnd, who has (peacc to his ashes) been per. secutcd from earth to heaven where there are no base where malice and envy cannot say that the genuine sarsaparilla busts the bottles." Sherman has saved the Comets us from exploding into air, "thin air." Had it not been for him, this immaculate newspaper known in the mile square city as Comet would now be going tail foremost back to the undiscovered country, from whose borne, etc Sherman's body which we always put on to write a stiff and heavy article, saved us else after reading the following funny thing from the Advocate newspaper of Sunday morning, we should have burst the bounds of moderate discretion and gone off: Mr. Pike might throw light on the subject, he being implicated in the charge. Did he, and others, before the election fawn upon the Catholics If so, they have "thrown off the mask," and now "appear in their true colors An indiscreet organ is worse than vo way of moral. The fact, that the Advocate asks the question of our "fawning," implies a doubt, and leads us to the conclusion that he docs not read our Does he not know, that all the politico-religious articles, which peared iu this sheet, have been under the supervision of the Jesnits at St.

Peter and St. Paul's college in the North end of the town Does he not know that "much jobs" have been thrown into our hand by this course He ought to if he don't. If there is any thing that we have labored hard to do, it is to fix in the up the task now, sincc it is clearly of mind of this indifferently community our religious belief. We give no use. The Advocate would do us a special favor to let us alone on this subject.

It is only a short lime ago to take two or three isolated lines from distorted, magnified and prisimized them in such a manner, as amn us tj ie CS 0 iS readers. mit never mind, its so. We have no idea that we that he dona us the neighborly service, shall ever be understood until dead, and then nobody will feel sufficiently interested in our claims to immortality, to try and mako the public believe that we do not mean what we do mean. We were opposed to the election of a chaplain for the Lower HauM-of-the Legislature, because we do Hot believe that praying for that body will io MJ good. It is true that herftofsre ns have had a turn at it and prayed promptly to the call; but from the haste with which they go the Auditor's office to receive the quid after the session is over, it al, wa ys occurred to us that their prayers were more for the "one hundred a piece" than for the ninety-six collected God forsaken sovereigns fwho come here to make foolish laws.

Besides, we believe the time has come for every man to pray for himself and look after his own soul. Politicians may pray for one other power and for lace, this is right, because they hang tog( thcr but dny is pnst) for hon peop to lhink hat they sneak jnto Heayen by hanging to tbc I Ap IsTEBE8TIRO time Ahead asto lislling how much of garment of a worldly devout priest or minister. Here we are at a full column's length, and have not said what we design ed to. what is going to happen here, is kuown in New Orleans. There are certain signs of the is true, from which ordinary segasity and foreshight may jump at conclusions.

Coming events cast ilicir shadows," and the mid wife of practical rkill may say certain things with safety. But how it is that parties in New Orleans not only what is now doing by the inquisition hut what is to be done, passes a few miles beyond our obtuse coinpiehension. The True Delta to whom we are indebted for much we don't know as well as much we do know, comes out with an expose, or the secret resolves of some midnight caucuse and otonly the legislature in its opinion but also the Governor himself before he is invested with the distaff of office. There is one thing about it, which must strike the unsophisticated eye with much force, that there are some knaves yet let in I he Crescent city, Listen to th- True Delta, which like the I rue American" The True Democrat the True Republican, were never known to any other than the strong side. It has been rcpre-ented to us by, we think, parlies qualified to speak upon the subject, from their positiou at the seat of gOTcrnment, that so soon as the Legislature is fairly under weigh with business, a vote will be taken to asccrtaill thc pens0 members of both hou-es as to the propriety of callin ff ll on fll Executive to exercise the power vested in him by the ccnstitulion, and to remove the Sheriff.

CoroClerks, of Courts and others who may have succeeded in obtaining possession of these offices by tbe breaking of the ballot boxes in the Seventh and Ninth Precincts, and the refusal of the Commissioners to receive the votes of adopted citizens legally entitled to exercise the suffrage. As many of our readers may not be familar with th clause of the Constitutioii under which it is proposed in this instance to proceed and as the circumstances of the present times are peculiar and anomalous wo have thoilght it advisable to publish, for their entertainment and the article in question. Art. OT. All civil officers, except the Governor and Judges of the Supreme and Inferior Courts, shall be removably by an address of a majority of the members of both Houses, except those, the removal of whom has been otherwise provided by this Constitution.

I nder this article, it is alleged, the Legislature intends to vindicate the inviolability of the ballot-box and the 1 1 1 1 ight of every citizen entitled by law to exercise the suffrage, to do soin defiance of every combination and obstruction. Some persons have expressed doubts whether the Governor's power extends 1 md for If, but to it does, ndt Jwfces of Inferior the of the clause of fbi Constitution above cited. A strange condition of affairs truly exists here, and a curious spectacle do we present to our feliow -citizens of other cities and other States. There is little question, we believe, of the correctness of the above information, and as little doubt in our mind that the changea indicated will be carried out, for the Legislature and Governor elect arc represented to be alike firm and resolved, and we may cxpeet, therefore, to see sights. jU nrrtiarwMta.
