LOUISIANA., ‘The condition of things in Louisisna is at {rronont the subject of convorsation averywhere, and anything relating to that admittedly dis- trossed State will doubtloss bo road with inter- est. An opportunity to sccure roliablo informan- tion prosented itsolf to a TRIDUNE reporter yos- terday, and it was taken advantage of. The gon- tloman interviewed was Mr, Charlos H. Watkor, & former rosident in this city, but who now lives on a large sugar-plentation in tho Teche coune try. Hois beroon s visit to his brother, Mr. George 0. Walker, and readily answored overy quostion asked him., Tho convorsation was s follows : TULIO SENTINENT, TRoporter—What is tho stalo of feeling in Louisiava ? Aer. Walker—In our country the whits paople aro almost unanimously opposed to this Kellogg Goverpment,, I know but very few who do not denounce tho usurpation, Reporter—What cause for complaint have they ? Mr. Walkor—They complain of high taxation ; that tho returus in the Iast election were unfair; and they have no faith in the men who sro gov- erning thom. TAXATION, Reporter—What is the State tax ? Bir. Walkor—In the Parieh of Sf. Maryit is 1434 mills. Roporter—In tho rate larger now than under the previons Administratiou ? . Mr. Walker—I think not; but it is much Targor than 1t was bofore tho War, 2nd the couu- try is not ablo to stand it, A great deal of tho land does not yield enough income to pay the taxes, Noarly ano-half of tho State is roturnad delinquent for non-paymont of taxes. Reporter—Doea that 14)¢ mills covor personal promrte 2 4 Mr. Walker—Yes, both real and parsonal, Roportor—How wmuch are the parish taxes?

Mr. Walker—They are perfectly friendly; thero has beon no trauble betwoen thom as far 6 Wy oxpesience goes, Reporter—Is there any dsnger of a war of TRCO8? Mr. Walker—No ; thers cannot be any, The nograes are kindly disposed unless they are in- terforod with by desiguiug persons. Roporter—Do they.work steadily ? Mr, Walker—Thoy work very woll nnless they unz told to stop by the men who want their Voles, Ttoporter—Do thesa * designing peoplo ™ elr- oulate among them much ? i Ar, Walker—Yos, and advise thom o join TUE POLITICAL OLULS. Roporter—Do many of the nogroes belong to such organizations ? : Mr. Walkor—Yes, and abont clection timo they ‘become excited, aud do not work ag well &3 when Do olection is expected. Roporter—Who are thess men who * advise " them ? Mr. Walker—They are negroes who ara paid by persons who watit to get inio ofiice. Let me read you an extract from the Now Orleans fo- publican on that point : By the tirno the negroes becoms thorouglily fright~ ened and fairly aroused, ihicre will nriko 4 mciane choly wail all ovor the Stute that thers are 1o laborers to gathior thu orops, The laborurs in B, Martin, Cad- do, Clatborno, and some uther parishes aught, nbw to indrantly leavo the plantations and scok a piace of safe- ty.

The men running for oflico—say Shenft or County Olerk—pay some leading negro to go amoug the hands, and ho urgon thom £o voto for Lis priucipal, and gota thom to join the olubi, Toportor—Do (4o oftice-sookery of both par- tion do that? Mr, Walker—No; it is done by what we call * OARPET-DAUGERS,” Roporter—In your opinion, thon, it Ia thoy who vaugo all the trouble? Ar. Wolker—Yos, Tho people do not osll Northera men who o Lhore and buy property, and incroase the wealth of tho State, * carpots baggera;” and they do not cars how much mea vola. Only thoso are called oarpet-baggora™ who go among tha nejroea und solicit thoiryotas, aud, whon they get iuto oftlos, steal from aople. P Ropbrior—Ia Hioro wmuch atealing dono?

Mr. Walker—No ; but the bonds woro taken by tho Company, and tho Siato Is responsible for tholr paymeént, An injunclin was issuod to rovout tho payment of tho interost, but n fund- ing bill wag passed by tho Legislature laat win- tor. and it is loft to tho Funding Commisslonora to say whother tho bonds shall be redcomed, If thoy recognize the bonds the peopla will have no tedreas ; aud e are afraid they will, as the Com- missionors are carpot-baggors.

Wallkor~Tho wajority of thom are, and they aro big thieves, Thoto is & Iaw that no parish can levy a tax largor thim the Stato tux, unless by o dircot vote of tho boople of tho parlsh; yob. in tho arish of Nacogdaclics, thoy lévied a tax much Inrgor than the Stato tax,and the carpot-baggers, who aro Judges fu the courts, refusad to isatio an injunction 1eatraining its collection, 'The proj erty was sold, aud wus bought in by the oflico- Tolders, and, a8 thoro was 1o othor remedy, the poople turned tho robbers out of oitlce and sout them away.

Reporter—Do the uppononts of Kollogg think thoy hiave n majority iu the State? Mr. Walker—1They undoubtedly would have, it ‘thero was n fair olection, ‘Uliere is & differ- ence of 3,000 in favor of the colored Puaplo, but the whito voto I8 larger than that of the negroos, and, whilo a great many negroos would nat vote at all, o large numbor of tho hotter class would vota the white ticket. If we liad a Government of bo people in_Lonisiana, there would be no trouble at all, Nme-tenths of tho laud is owned by whito people, and they do vot wane war, bo- causs it 1y againgt Lhoir intorests, They want peaco, and muegro Jubor, as it is tho only labor they can gotb.

Roporter—Have" taxen beon increasad nince the presont Stato Government assumed control of affairs ? Mr. Hoaly—Yes ; tho tax on real estato bas been increased & quaitor of 1 per cont, Rtoportor—\What' was the object of the in- cronye ? Mr, Healy—Well, under tho Ropublicon ad- ministration of Gov. Bmith fn 1663, the tax on reat estata wna - thace-quarterd of 1 per cent.”, That mot all the running oxpendos and pald the interest on tho old Sinte bonds iksuod bofore the Wer, The Domocrzcy rafsed = groat ery ngainst uig tazalion,” claiming thet it was “running tlicm iuto, the pround,” snd it was chietly on that ground that Gov. Smith was doefeated " in 1870, and Gov. Liundsay dlected. llo was the Democratie candidate, and whon they camo into powor the taxes were roduced to one-hull of 1 per cent, But thoy found that did not vield enflicient to meel expenses aud tho interest, and they had to borrow a large sun to mako up tho doticioncy. In 1872 tho Democrats were dofeated, and, when tho Republicans camo into power, rathor than contintio borrowing moncy and inoreasing tho State debt, thoy increascd the percentage of taxation to what it was nader Gov. Smith, Reportor—What is the rate on poruonal prop- orty ¢ Mr. Healy—About the.same—three-quarters of 1 por cent. Tteporter—Ias tho Stato paid interest on all its bonds ? Mr. Hoaly—Yeos; but not on the bonds of ;mll! of the railroads which it bocame security for. . Reporter—Why not ? Mr, Healy—Tlho railtosds defsulted, and thoy are to be sold, ‘Tho matter is now in the courts, aud I think the Lond-holders will reslize the face-valuo of the bonds, WILITES AND DLAGRS.

Mr. Horly—[ do not think it is on account of new trouble, but to mako arrests of poraous concorned in the lato troublo in Swupter County. Toporter—Do you anticlpate & WAL OF BACES in your State 2 Mr, Healy—No, nor in any_other Southern Btato, unloss this rovolution in Louisiana is suc- cossful. Ifitis, I look for tho overturning of all the Ropublican State Governmonts in the Bouth at any moment. The diliculies in Ala- bern, Missisippi, and other Southiorn Statos,aro | ocensioned by the fact that the Repunlicza Stato Governuents have no support from ruy ono but tho uogroes, aud _their upport is nok of much sccount, Lvery Ropublican State Governmont it in that fix, for tho rosson thot the physical forco is 1u the hands of the,othorsida ; thoy give the Qovernments neither® their moral nor physical force. Ve havo hnd no political troubles growing out of ¢ class difforencos until within the last threa months. Ttoporter—What gave rlse to those troubles ? Mr. Healy—TFhoy aro ohioly contined to Bumpter County, snd arise, a8 I think, from a desiro of the Domocrats to intimidato the ne- §!uuu ko that thoy van carry tho nest election, voy, tho mail-messongor who was kilted, was. & political londer among tho negroes, nad tho Democruts doubtloss thought by gotting rid of him tho negro orgamzations would bo broken up, and they would not go to the polls. That was the only ebject I can aeo in murdering him. TILE STATE GOVERXOENT. Reporter—Is the Btats Goverument of Aln- bama strong enough to suppresa s formiduble rutbrguk-—ny ono similar .to that in New Or- cany Mr, Hoaly—I do not think it ia (and the Gov- ernor is of the same opinion), for the reason that, if ko undertook to guppress any outbresks, k16 would linve to orgauize a negro militis, and thnt would be opposad by the Damocraty, Lhe Tegroos are tie only class ho could depeud on, Leportor—Do you fuclude all the mombors of the party when you ay Domoorats " Alr, Healy—No. ‘Ilie botter cluss of Demo- ernta do not act that way; ouly thoso in the back counties—~the iznorant class—corner-grocery loafors, ete.
