SOME FRIENDLY ADVICE.

The Times and Pjcaysae are not be-
having with that propriety which be-
comes them as models and instructors of
the public They are indulging in very
unseemly and improper language toward
each other The third estate is scandal
lied by this fretfulness of its representa-
tives that breaks out in childish insinua-
tons and peeyish animosities. There are
great abuses that are general to the
world which need their attention, but in
stead Of castigatihg the common enemy
they are wasting their blows upon each
other. Instead of uniting to abolish
wrong they are fretting about the small
weaknesses that afiict themselves. If a
man has corn upon his foot, is that to
be thrust at him by his neighbor when
they are engaged in arresting a confagra-
ton? Shall two men in pursuit Of
robber stop to quarrel about
the color of their hats? Is the Times
to cease from its work Of reform because
the LCdy1tt putS d LEV nIah IL 4Io Se1AIO-
rial chair? Is the Pjcayltne to forego its
labors in behalf Of the sugar interest when
the Times sweetens its toll with little as
sumption of independence Byno means.
We say, in the name of the great press
which they represent in some sort with
ourselves, let them be calm. The country
is safe. There is room for both, and some
to spare. They are only the custodians OF
the public ear for benefcent and generous
purposes, not for individual ends. They
have no right to tone down the great trum-
pets which they hold to penny whistles.
Il they have a grievance personal to them
selves about a subscriber or two, let them
meet and discuss it in some quiet place,
where people need not be vexed about the
matter Initiate the REPUBLICAN in its
amiabiity and logic. Discuss with the
people what concerns the people, and
stand upon the dignity that makes the
press the model instructor instead of the
peevish irritant Of the public

In speaking of the Republican conFen-
ton yesterday in session at Mechanics
Institute, the Customhouse organ says;
Evidently the component elements of the
convention, while embracing in the ma
jOrl6y of its members many sincere and
loyal Republicans, is not Of that mild,
milky and unsophisticated nature which its
would-be managers and controllers so hope
fully counted upon.
One could tell blindfold that the above
sentiment originated in the Citizens Guard.
1t has become so accustomed to conven-
tons and party gatherings of Customhouse
whippers-in and Postofice proxies that
its supRme conception of "sincere and
loyal Republicans" is a gathering Of
mild, milky and uDsophisticated" crea-
lures, who tremble guilty if an indie
pendent thought, meteor-like, flashes
across their minds, and Who obey the
crack of 'sBoss" Packard's party whip as
subsequently as ever did slave the cruel
lash of slave-driver in the olden time.
The true Republicans are made Of sterner
stuff, and, acting upon their sober and
honest convictions of principle and right
give no heed to the tricksters whom the
Guard represents.

THE CONVENTION AND THE RESULTS.

THE CONVENTION AND THE RESULTS.
We gave it as our judgement, two days
ago, that the Republican State Convention
presented an unusual array of representa-
tive strength and intellectual ability, and
predicted that in its treatment of the inn
portant subjects which would come before
it for consideration, it would develop great
wisdom, careful judgment and statesman
like forethought. We have, now that its
labors are terminated, no cause to doubt
the correctness of this estimate, and must
congratulate the members, individually
and collectively, upon the dignity of their
bearing and the marked courtesy mani
tested throughout The audiences during
its sessions were very large, and about
equal in numbers of white and colored,
and commentator of the prudence and
moderation of the convention was almost
universally expressed.
The one dangerous question which
threatened the harmony of the proceed
ings, was treated in manner that while
we hoped for an emphatic Endorsement OF
Greeley and Brown, we can not, under the
circumstances, condemn. The uncertainty
and doubt with which the Democracy has
enshrouded its intentions as regards the
Cincinnati nominees, binders many who
are in full sympathy with the Liberal
movement from boldly espousing their
cause, fearing that out Of Republican dis
putes an attempt to pluck Democratic
victory will be made. Until the true
policy of the Democratic party is defined,
therefore the convention leaves all its adj
herents free and untrammelad in thought
and action as regards all national issues.
After justly condemning the arbitrary
course of the federal authorities toward the
Republican party in this State, just, en-
phatic and well-merited tribute is paid to
Governor Warmoth, and a thorough in
dorsement of Lieutenant Governor Pinch
back follows, the resolutions also nomina-
ting these gentlemen respectively for the
positions of Governor and Lieutenant Gov
ernor. With provision in the resolution
for adjournment looking to the future
unity of all elements Of our party in this
State, and providing for new Central
Executive Committee, the convention ter
minated its labors. Well done, good and
faithful servants

The Bee garbles the patriotic letter of
Ex-Governor Mouton, and deliberately
misconstrues his meaning We quote:
He SAYS that 1--WE owe it to ourselves and
our children not to loose the first Oppor-
tunity to get rid of the corrupt despotism
welded by a sordid tyrant." His letter is
brief He, therefore, does not undertake
to show why it is better to join one of the
factions of divided opposition than to
take advantage of their division by pursu'
ing our usual course.
As the "sordid tyrant" referred to by
Governor Mouton is General Grant, the
disingenuousness of the Bee is apparent
Would it aid to rid us of the tyrant by as
sisting his faction to continue him in the
Presidential chair for a second term? Has
the Bee lost all sense Of political honesty
and fair play?

The members of the Republican con-
vention may congratulate themselves that
in forcing Colonel Casey's resignation of
the collectorship, the President has justi-
fed their course, and virtually admitted
that they have been outraged beyond en-
durance. If he will now confirm the sin
cerity of this apparent desire for repair
alton by appointing one of our friends to
the vacancy, and by removing the arch
conspirator Packard, he may yet be en-
titled to some consideration from the Re
publican party of Louisiana.

COLONEL A, N. H0LBRooK.

We are gratifed to welcome back among
us, from their recent bridal excursion, our
late distinguished confrere, Colonel A. NJ.
Holbrook and his accomplished wife, the
sweet young poetess, ''Pearl Rivers" Al
though Colonel HoIbrook has temporarily
retired from journalism, we trust soon to
have the pleasure of welcoming him to a
field of labor, where his exertions rendered
his journal SO conspicuous in its ability
and widespread influence; nor is it prob
able that the new relations of his charming
wife will, in the future, deprive her many
admirers Of the pleasure of her beautiful
carols.
Wishing them every success and happi-
ness in life, we extend our hearty congratU-
tons.

The Citizens Guard declares that the
Hon. B. L. Lynch made some remarks to
the Second Ward Customhouse Club on
Tuesday evening, and that they ''were re-
ceived with remarkable enthusiasm" The
most striking Of these remarks, which ap-
pear in the Guards report are that Grant
had ''many offices at his disposal, and
that he ''has made great number of
enemies. How is that for cause for ere
markable enthusiasm"

The Citizens Guard stupidity or ma
liciously states that a packed caucus of
members of the Republican convention
was held Tuesday night. If it means that
Governor Warmoth's parlor was packed
by Republicans it tells the truth. If it
means that the persons there were picked
out or invited it tells an untruth. There
were a large majority of the delegates
present, and many others not delegates,
for the doors were thrown open, and every
one who desired to entered. There was
no such thing as a caucus held there or
elsewhere.
