NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

Patrons of The LoUIsrAN1AN, when re-
newing their subscriptions, should be care
full to al,cays state the place where the
paper is mailed; and the same care should
be exercised when change of location is
desired. By particularly attending to
this, our mailing clerk will be relieved of
great amount of extra labor in hunting
through the hundreds of names upon
our books before the name required can
be found and the alteration made; where
as, if the full address is given, he has only
to consult his alphabet of towns to turn
direct to the name upon the subscription
book A little care saves much labor.

possession of every right and privilege
Now when the fact is added that in
many cases the patrons OF these pros
cribing saloons are law makers, and it is
remembered that we have laws upon the
statute book placed there by their assist
ance against this outrage upon our
manhood, the case assumes still more
serious aspect.
Let us take the case of "THE RUINS" at
the Lake. 1t is susceptible of the most
abundant proof that the proprietor of
that restaurant refuses to accommodate
colored gentlemen, and yet it is equally
easy to show that his place is sought af-
ter by many of the very men who in
patronizing him are bringing contempt
upon their own efforts at Legislation, and
fostering the violation of the laws of the
State.
Nov this question, destitute of this
moral aspect, it seems to us that consid-
erations of expediency should settle the
matter in favor of ordinary fairness. Is
it fair that the wealthy culture and vir-
tue of our wives, daughters and ourselves
should be forced into association with
opposite qualities for no other reason
than the color of our skin ? Do not our
white friends feel that there is something
due them as to the character of their
colleagues !? They cannot force us into
these degrading conditions without
sharing some of the odium which at
taches to their victims. If the better
class of colored people are esteemed as
no better than the worst, and they are
compelled to herd with the worst, it will
not be long before white republicans will
deserve to be esteemed as no better than
any negro by his enemies, and not even
as good by those who used to be his
friends
Social equality! No. We want nothing
Of the kind, all we want is consistency in
our legislators and Justice to our race.

b@- NUISANCE. The City Counc at th'i
meeting on the evening of May q passed
resolution directing the City Attorney
to take steps to abate the nuisance
created by whiskey distellery on
st Ferdinand street. There is Just such
another that deserves attention Messrs
Administrators That beer mandatory
on Prieur street between Gravier and
Perdido streets, habitually let's out its
lees, and swill into the street gutter
which is never sufficiently open to permit
them to run off; and the const quence is
they ferment in the sun and rot there,
emitting a most intolerable stencil among
the neighbors around. Wemake mention
of the fact and believe that this is all we
need do now.

journals are only calculated to render the
Northern leaders of the democratic party
Indifferent at once to Southern opinions
and Southern interests.
Why not honestly and fairly accept the
situation? The North whether democratic
or republican must always exert a con.
trolling influence in the politics of the
republic. The wealth numbers and gen.
eral culture of the nation are theirs, and
it has never been known in the history Of
the world that petulence, prejudice and
poverty were matches for them.
The Times has no right to drag re
luctant people into this arena of unequal
combat. What the Southern people
want is return to the era of good feel
ing between the different sections of the
country. The South this year has raised
the largest crop ever known, and our fair
Crescent City might do larger business

its journals would only cease those i'm
potent threats and that mendacious op-
position which have been the main causes
of keeping capital and enterprising men
alOof from us.
There are thousand reasons to bring
men of wealth. character and intelligence
among us but such journals as the Times
have erected barrier of political hate
and social ostracism so high that few
men laden with any other worldly inter-
ests than a carpet-bag can surmount it.
And yet the Times is not happy; nor
will it ever be while it attempts to raise
the ghost Of Calhoun to put down the
18th Amendment. A living negro chin.
ney-sweep is better than the greatest o.
dead statesmen at the ballot-box and the
Times will yet learn that it can nevel
secure the best interests of the whites Of
the South, till it does full Justice to the
blacks here and their white friends in the
North.

s%The Republican will permit us to
correct an error in Tuesdays issue. Mr..
Bell, one of the two candidates for admis-
sion to practice in our State Courts, is a
colored man, and we know no reason I'M
der the sun, why any effort should be
made to create the impression that he is
not guilty of the color of skin" unless
it is to prove that his not being negro,
accounts Cor Mr.. Ben easy admission to
the United Stytes District Court. If this
is the way we are to interpret the men
ton of this idea, the sooner we know it
the better.

may after all be o profitable business
at least for q time, and SO we beg
in the business in small way by throw
ing Just little sand-the stones we know
lie deeper, and time may improve our
method Of reaching them, and should occa-
sion require, we hope to profit from the
Standard as to the best way and time of
throwing our stones
Let us, in the last place, congratulate
our neighbor upon the advantage of
bellegerant disposition. We have had
the new experience of looking with inter-
est for the Standard. We wish to know
what can be said on all sides, and if for
the present Goliath is somewhat reticent
and like Achilles sulking in his tent, we
at least know what is going on in the
camp of David, and having all the NOR
nation on our side, we can the more
easily make up our mind when the OPP
posing forces join battle in earnest. Till
then let these missels of personality es-
cape, if they must, it may be they will
all be fired and gathered up in time to
leaAe clear field for the coming contest
of great principles when men will be for
gotten in the absorbing interest of our
great cause.
