nEArH M MIR. KING.


We were panied yesterday yesterday 70 gee the an.
nouncemeut of the death of Mr.. W. "a. G.
King, hechief managing editor Of the New
Orleans Times. He died of cancer, at his
residence in Pass Christian on the previous
day. ot .
Mr.. King was a printer by profession,
was formerly engaged upon the Picdyos,e,
and subsequently was foreman of the Cres-
cent. When that establishment was confs-
Gated and sold at auction by order of Gen
eral Butler, the material was purchased by
Jacob Barker, who started the National
ADVOCATE, and intrusted the chief manage
ment to Mr.. King. .....
Under his energetic conduct the I'D
cocate at once took high rank among the
newspapers of this city, which it main
tanned until the paper was finally sup
pressed by General Banks for an indis-
Greet article which was written by Mr..
Barker.
When the Tines was started Mr.. King
became its chief manager, and afterward
its principal owner. His great energy and
sagacity gave the paper great popularity
and extensive influence, and made it, in
fact, one of the leading papers Of the State.
Mr.. King was a native of Pennsylvania
and about forty-fve years Of age. He
leaves wife and several children to mourn
his untimely end. We learn that not long
before his death he became member Of
the Catholic Church. Req,descat in pace.

New Orleans Republican., 1868-08-29

We call the attention of the Republican;
Of Louisiana to the great necessity Of al
once engaging in the work of organizing
for the campaign.
Relying upon their great numerical ma
jOrity, they have thought it almost un-
necessary to effect a thorough organiza-
ton in order to carry the State for Gram
and Colfax. 1t is true, they have a large
numerical majority-not less than thirty
thousand, certainly-but they have willy
active, INSCRIPTIONS foe to deal with,
that will not fail to take advantage OF
any mistake they may make or of any
supineness they may exhibit, and to turn
the one or the other, or both, to his own
benefit, What will thirty or forty thousand
majority avail the Republican party of
Louisiana If no efforts are made to poll the
vote?
The only danger there is that Louisiana
will not vote for Grant and Colfax lies in
over-confdence--a confidence which sup
poses that no very strenuous efforts are
necessary to carry the State for them. This
must not be. The members of the party
and all who wish for peace and prosperity
the coming season must buckle on their
armor and go to work, just as if there were
no positive assurance of victory. Victory
Implies campaign, struggle, union, CO.
operation, energy, pluck, work especially
work.
We do mot exhort the Republicans of the
State to initiate the example set them in
this city by the Democracy, so called, and
expend large sums Of money in gay trap
pings, red caps, white capes, splendid
equipages, etc. They have not the
money to spend in such business.
They are mostly poor, and engaged
in daily labor as a means of supporting
themselves and their families, while the
oppressed Democracy have thousands
and tens Of thousands to spend in snowy
paradss and semi-milltary masquerades.
But though poor, the Republicans are
not destitute of the means of organizing,
and this is sacred duty they owe to them
selves, their friends, and to their country.
Let the active. intelligent men Of the party
in every parish and neighborhood ihroagh-
ont the Stats bestir themselves. Let them
call meetings, and enroll the names
Of all tie friends Of Grant and Coltax.
Let theul seek out the best local speakers,
