STEALING A BABY.-Some fellow, who is
a disgrace to mankind, passing along St.
Peter street Wednesday evening, through
an open door saw mother and her baby
sleeping quietly on bed. In a spirit OF
fiendish mischief he silently slipped IN and
stole the infant, only fifteen days DID, took
it away and left it ON a doorstep on Bour-
bon street. where Officer blanchard found
it about eleven o'clock at night. when Ser
geant Newton kindly took it to his home 10
save it until some one should claim the
poor little thing. relative of the mother,
in searching for the infant, ascertained
what disposition had been made OF 1t, ana
soon after returned it to the afflicted parent
The mothers name is Malvina Pollock,
living in No 225 st. Peter street. AS yet no
clue has been obtained as to who the mean
perpetrator was. Only mother can es'l-
mate the agony that poor woman suffered
until her offspring was restored.

U.urp.,iou in St. James Parish.

5 Line 81. james oefltt1tet Oh July ID says
As there is no recognized Parish Execu-
tive Committee for st. James. the State
Central Executive Committee has appointed
Messrs. Henry Riley, .Adolphe Tureaud,
George E. Boyee, Adam Travis, l.. +. Bent
ley, Samuel Cook and j. w. Hunsaker as a
Parish Executive Committee, whose duty it
is to conduct the election tor delegates to
parish convention. There will be meet
ing of this committee on Monday evening
next, July %, at five o'clock. A full attend
ance is desired.
To which the New Orleans Louisianian
replies: Now we remember perfectly that
when this very question was referred to in
the recent Press Convention, Mr.. l.. +.
Bentley. the editor of the Sentinel, rose and
stated that this committee was appointed
to organize the people so as to form parish
committee. and was not to conduct the
election How comes this now =! Will the
people of the parish of ST. James submit to
be choked off in this way! Can they not,
will they not understand that they have the
exclusive right to form their own parish
committee! Who is it that could dare to
refuse recognition to the parish committee
elected by the Republicans of st. james
Let the people of that parish know that
they are not only sacrificing one of their
sacred rights, but they are also mourning
the risk of the refusal by the convention OF
recognition to the representative elected
by a bogus parish committee"

1t has often been remarked that 1t costs
more to die than to live in this city, and
that it frequently happens that poor fell
lows estate is completely exhausted by the
undertaken who puts him in the tomb
Now, whatever may be the truth of this in
regard to undertaders generally, it GER
tainly does not apply to our friend Mr.
John Grayer, the well-known undertaken,
of Nos. 50 and 81 Elysian Fields street,
and proprietor OF the Phoenix Stables, OF
that locality Mr.. Grayer is at the same
time first class business man and man
of feeling and his prices are always low,
while his funerals are invariably stylish
and satisfactory. His livery business Is
also conducted on the same liberal plan.
He deserves patronage.

The Real Issue.

The Big-Stone- Trio, whose headquarters
are situated in New Orleans, employs all It's
sOphistry, and puts its ingenuity to the rack,
with the vain hope of creating throughout
the State the impression that all who sup
port Governor WarmOth are at war With
the rights and interests of the colored man.
The s0reheads in the different parishes OF
the State have taken up the Big Stone Tune;
"If we can succeed in making the colored
men of the State believe that by holding
Lieutenant Governor Dunn up before us as
our champion 1--WE are conceallng our de.
fOrmitiesl, we must be the best friends OF
the colored people"
These men may be illustrated by the man
who went out on the common to catch his
horse: he advanced with bride IN one
hand behind his back and an ear OF corn
held out in front, saying to the morse,
"kope, kope:" but when caught he rode the
horse under the whip and spur. SO these
men have the gubernatorial office behind
their back and Lieutenant Governor Dunn
in front saving to the colored voters,
'.kope, kope." Mark what we say; if they
catch YOU, you will have an awful Jadlng In
four years heat A.,
Is Governor Warmoth your enemy All
over the State colored men OF competency
have office by his appointment. We might
mention a thousand names or more, put let
us be brief. Who appointed MIR. Barber,
Pinchback, Ingraham, Delassize, Clay,
Vigers aud Chase Through whose man
agement were the colored laborers put upon
the streets all over the city of New orleans!
| Governor Warmoth, who led the TRENDS oil
reconstruction against formidable enemy
| to a complete success, and brought Louis
| lana from chaos to the sure road to pros
perity and greatness. while bearing with
| him the bitterest malignity of his personal
and political defamers. He has been tried
| by a fiery ordeal. That trial has only bur
| nished his character.
| Let his ambitious assailants wrangle and
snarl at him. He is independent ana proud

Once more there is an opportunity to win
the capital prize of fifty thousand dollars in
the Louisiana State Lottery by purchasing
a ticket for twenty dollars. The drawing Is
to take place tomorrow, and among the
twenty thousand tickets sold one will be
the lucky number To any reader, there
fore. we may say, You may be the for
tunate possessOr of the lucky number"
There are many who regard the whole busl-
ness of life as one continued lottery, and
that it is just as proper and prudent to IN
vest twenty dollars in lottery ticket, with
the chance of winning fifty thousand dol
lars, as to buy a stock of goods to sell them
again for the sake of the profits. That is
not the logic of all, it is true, but it is logic
that has put many on the road to fortune

SToP THIEF.-It is well that Superln-
tendent Badger has ordered the special
detectives in the several precincts to patrol
at night, as much good may result. We
hear of some lively transactions IN the
upper portion of our city, especially In the
Sixtb District. where burglars operate as
freely as communists nearly every night in
the week By way of hint to the thieves
we will state that lately many OF the resi-
dents in that section have purchased I'M
proved firearms and polished up old ones
That is the method-lead and powder are
unpalatable Let half dozen of the tribe
be food for coroners and we warrant the
fraternity will seek other fields. If citizens
are not inclined to shoot, let them provide
themselves with an alarm whistle, toy
which is a terror to burglars.
