FALSE PRETENSES.

The Customhouse managers, as might
have been expected, lay claim to all the
credit for the numbers at the meeting at
Lafayette square the other night 1t was
announced that Fred Douglass and Messrs.
Ransier, Cardoza and other speakers
would address the meeting When the
people arrived on the ground they were
treated to Burch, Worrall, Pitkin, Toy.
and spouters Of that ilk. TWAS too much
for human patience, and the marks of
disapproval were very plain. The case is
now put by the humbugs who deceived
the people, that the assembled thousands
came out to testify to their sympathy with
the Customhouse ring. Fred Douglass,
who was at first put forward as the great
attraction, is quietly ignored, and the
noise which resulted when the patent

THE PAPER MILL EXPLOSION.

The coroner's jury in the paper mill ex-
plosion, by which a brother Of Mr.. F. G..
Mahan was instantly killed, have found a
verdict Of criminal negligence against W.
n. Pemberton and James Todd, who pur-
chased the boiler, knowing it to be unsafe
at the time. Coroner Creagh states his in
tention of bringing the whole matter before
the grand jury.
Our readers will remember that the oper-
atoms of these mills commenced only a
few weeks since. On the opening of the
establishment for the manufacture of paper,
representatives of the city papers were in
vited to attend and make report of the
institution of new branch of manufacture
in Louisiana.
One OF the gentlemen whom the cor
oner's jury find is guilty Of criminal neg
igence, went out of his way in a speech
on that occasion to declare that if the
State administration was faithful to its
trusts similar enterprises would receive
more encouragement here. We intimated
through these columns that censorious
people might express want Of confidence
in the management of that particular en-
terprise But we did not imagine that the
truth of this intimation would so soon be
SO painfully evident.
The testimony before the coroner, which
we published yesterday, fully sustains the
verdict of the jury, and the public should
insist upon such a result in the prosecu-
ton of this case as to deter others from
being guilty of similar criminal negligence
The life of Mr.. Mahan and the serious
injury of another employee Of this COM
pany are the direct results of the criminal
purchase of cheap boilers because money
was scarce, without regard to the sancti y
Of human life. Let an example be made
now, and let the Louisiana Paper Manu-
featuring Company be compelled to take
the pecuniary responsibility of its reck-
less agents.
Further than this let private boilers be
inspected, SO that more lives may not be
sacrificed to the temptations of cupidity.

THE DEMOCRATIC COALITION.

The Bee has learned from some indef-
mite and unexplained source that the Gov
ernor is anxious to form coalition with
the Democrats and to this end proposes a
fair distribution of the public patronage.
The Bee is evidently not averse to it, but
thinks that the supposed anxiety of Gov
ernor Warmoth to affect it may be seized
upon to extort all the offices within his
gift. On such basis the Bee would be glad
to see the coalition carried into effect. The
spoils Of Office and the alleged plumber Of

UPHILL BUSINESS.

The Citizens Guard labors desperately
to make the mass meeting of Monday
night Republican ratification Of its Gus
tomhouse ring. 1t painfully wriggles
through column article to prove not only
that hundreds of people can be ten times
multiplied by its system OF arithmetic
without stretching the truth, but that the
shouts of derision and contempt which on
that occasion made the welkin ring, were
really enthusiastic outbursts Of applause.
J. Henri Burch, chairman of the work.
ing executive committee of the Custom
house faction, was not deceived on this
point. He knew, Immediately on mount
ing the rostrum, that the people assembled
cared naught whatever for the Packard
committee or its followers; and he realized
that to advertise Frederick Douglass as the
orator, and present himself as a substitute,
was an imposition Of the grossest charac-
ter. He therefore made no attempt to
conceal the fact that the objects sought to
be attained had failed utterly, and he
manifested his spleen at the result in de-
nunciations of the people assembled, in
terms which prove conclusiyely that our
citizens are among the most forbeating and
good-natured in the world. Only one con-
clusion can fairly be deduced from this
Customhouse (so-called) mass ratification
meeting, viz: that the ring managers are
political frauds and the people are SO well
coenizant of their worthlessness that they
can not even be trapped into seeming
Endorsement of them What better con-
dition of things could we ask?

Last evening Mr.. Conway, State Super
intendent of Public Education, dropped in
upon us, looking hearty and happy after
his visit to New York and Was hington.
His object in visiting New York was to OBJ
tain loan of money in order to relieve the
necessities of our teachers. In consequence
of temporary stringency in that market
caused by a combination of circumstances,
Mr.. Conway discovered that he could not
effect loan unless at great sacrifice. In
fact he can obtain money in New Orleans
at less rate than he could in New YORK.
Therefore the expected relief will not come
just yet.

A C0NUNDRUM, OR WHAT Il?

ALI the sore-heads, oftice-seekers and
chronic malcontents declare that Govern
or Warmoth is without political power or
following, and that he is dangerous to the
State and must be crushed out They do
not attempt to reconcile these antipodal
statements, nor do they appear to see how
illogical is their position. For instance,
the Bee declares that he has been elected
from the Republican party and denied
recognition by the Democrats and Reform
ers, yet in the same article asserts that he
holds the immense powers given him by
the election, registration and constabulary
laws in terrorem over all parties.
Is it not about time stupid declarations
of this character be dropped and public
instructors like. the Bee come down to a
sober analysis of the strength of the COM
tending political elements in Louisiana?

LoAFING IN FRONT OF CHURCHES
The habit Of young men loahng IN
front of the churches of the city has
got to be such nuisance that the po-
lice force has been requested to break
it up. Yesterday Deputy Sergeant
Cooper arrested two young men, whose
names we DO not know, for idly loiter'
ing at or near the door OF a church
or meeting house" contrary to the ordi
nance in such case made and provided.
This is very well for beginning. Now
let tie officers take their eye some
Sunday evening and cast it over the
Curbsrone Guards who parade in front
of the First Presbyterian Church or the
Fourth Street NJ. E. Church, passing
remarks on the ladies as they come out,
and see if the Guards cannot be dis
banded.
