GRAND FINALE YESTERDAY
ITS NOMINATIONS REPUDIATED
THE CONCENTRATION ADJOURNED

! Act third and last of the sorehead farce
was performed yesterday, and constituted
| a matinee of great farcical attraction.
We give in brief, the nominations made
| by the brethren without going into details,
| for how many votes each aspirant got, or
! how he got them, is OF no consequence to
! nybody. 1t will be seen, however, that
| the delegates took very good care OF them
| selves, az il great many OF their names ap-
| pear on the list of new pledged candidates.
| This is the action OF n portion OF the CON
| vention, embracing that part CT the city be-
| low Canal street:
For Congress-F. E. Dumas.
For Coroner. Second and Third Districts
DR.. NJ P. Avilla

| II will be observed that there is no nomi-
nation for Administrator OF Police III the
above slate. In fact il was resolved 70

| of Police to the Christian Republican State
! Central Committee, which, i'll a general
way seems to mean Mr.. Walsh. The rea-
| son stated for that pOstponement was that
! it was desirable to place in nomination a
| good Irishman or German, but so far the
| association had not found any suitable to
! their purpose.
But c. F. Glandin, who is always talking
| about equality. race, previous condition,
and all that sort of thing, roundly asserted,
| and made no secret of it. that neither Irish
or German should receive the nomination.
" On the top of this, DR.. Brozeene chow
digestive the name is of ben-ifse) moved
| the appointment of a committee of five. &c
draft an address to the citizens of LOuisi
ana. requesting them to join with the
Christian Association and support its ticket
without distinction OF race, color or party
This proposition met with no opposition
|
seeing how ridiculous the motion was.
DIR. BrOzeenc also moved a vote Of thanks
| TO the several reporters OF the press who
had attended the meetings.
Several of the leading spirits, Brozeene
Bechtel and Rodriguez, took the occasion Il
dccry the reporter of the REHUBLIcAN, who
it seems. had reported too much.
DR.. Brozeenc made n speech about thl'
| matter with great JUNCTION. 1t is To be hoped
| however. that the address, with which he Is
to bewitch the people OF Louisiana, will con
| tain better English and more eXcuSablt
| svntax than his address about the REPCB
LICAN newspaper. He SAID that Mr. Blu
| chanan's speech was garbied. While MIR
| buchanan himself acknowledged the essen
tial correctness of the report. Bechtel Sait
that the report made the concentration
| ridiculous. Had our report like those o
the other papers, contained a bare state
| ment of who had been nominated. this sol
impeachment might nave beer avoided. Bu
| who could relate what the members OF thu
| confederation said and did without making
the account ridiculous 1t could not be
| otherwise, in the nature of things. NJ
| Rodriguez, in his remarks. intiniated per
! sonal violence. which showed him to pcs
sess greater folly than he has had credit Tor
| The GROWING event of the whole farce
was now enacted. Rev. Mr.. S1tchcll. thu
president OF the confederation. arose ant
plainly told the assembled $t,titi: that. 10
reasons which he then stated, be felt com
PEELED TO reputliate the whole concern, aIt
that he could not support the ticket the,

1t was about time to adjourn then. ant
the concentration accordingly adjourned.
