Pass.a.I,Outre.

None can now deny the fact t1at we have
good channel at this ! ass, and having
always had the utmost confidence in Major
HoweH's reports, also in the inventions used
to dredge the bar, we may claim share Of
the pleasure and satisfaction resulting in
the successful crossing Of the steamship
Bolivar yesterday morning.
This ship was drawing eighteen feet nine
inches of water, and crossed without touch
ing the bottom at any point.
Now that we have good channel, if chip
masters insist upon going out the South
west Pass to please the pilots and Tow boat
Association, who are interested there, that
is their privilege.
But there is little fear that such rashness
will be persisted in. On the contrary, Pass.
a-fOutre will no doubt be the favorite roste
as long as there continues TO be a good
channel.

RESOLUTIONS ADoPTED.-At meeting of
the Seventh Ward Kellogg Pioneers. held
at their hail, Saturday evening, June Z,
1873, the following resolutions were unani
mously adopted:
WHEREAS. By the cooperation Of Repub-
lcans of the North and few patriotic ma
tive whites, the colored people of the South
have made progress in obtaining some of
the privileges that during the greatest por-
ton Of their lives have been denied them;
and
Whereas, The Democratic party has here
tofore established as its basis the principle
that colored men had no rights that white
men were bound to respect; and
Whereas, The principles OF the Repub
Gcan party belong exclusively to said party,
aud can not by any means be claimed now
by those who have fought them until every
vestige of hone is totally obliterated in their
defeat; therefore be it
Resoiced, That we, the members of the
Kellogg Pioneers of the seventh ward, do
hereby pledge ourselves to stand by the
regular republican party as whole, and to
cooperate with our former leaders in tie
main; and be it
Resotred, That we will not, as an organ
ization, hold any political intercourse with
the pioneers of this new party, who are
representing themselves as late converts to
Republicanism and who claim to be more
interested in our general welfare than our
old comrades; be it further
Resolced, That we cordially invite all real
converts to our principles to join with us in
our organization, accept of our candidates
at the last election, guaranteeing to all of
them good political treatment, and a fair
pro rata of public patronage as far as our
politica! influence shall extend.

President Grants proclamation has de-

unconsidered trities hanging OFT or lying

Texas has long been locked - as place
OF refuge in case OF emergency. but raids

PARK FENoEs.-A suggestion made by
Mayor Wiltz to dispense with fences around
city parks has caused considerable cont1o-
versy. Let the querist ask himself why a
public square in a city like this should be
inclosed with a railing. Is it to keep out
hogs. horses, goats, and such animals |?
Probably not; for they do not roam around
promiscuously as II country town. Is it
to prevent men, women and children enter
ingl No, for the gates are open to the
public. If the railing is for ornament then
it is an expensive display, as repairs are
almost daily called for. Take Lafayette
square as an instance. The iron railing was
a great expense. at first, and more than the
original price has been expended on it in
making repairs. As an ornament little can
be said for it. It is not necessary to keep
out cattle, for none range in that neighbor-
hood. We are to have an experiment there,
by action OF the City Council

Counsel for Lester Wallack, against whom
four suits have been brought Tor infringe
ment of the civil rights bill. have nut in
their answer TO the complaint made Dy ex-
Judge Culver, on behalf of the c0lOred men.
Wallack sets up q special defense through
his counsel that he owns aud conducts
his thea. ce as private business. and that
he has sold and will sell tickets
at his own discretion or plea sure II ditfe9-
ent persons at different prices, and that
when persons apply to b'm for tickets he
sells OF declines to SELL as he sees fit. He
further claims the right to revoke any
ticket at r it has been sold. and to resc;nd
euy conf ract entered into relative - admit
ing persons ~ his theatre.
1t is admitted by defense that Wa''ack's
agent sold cOlored men tickets, But this
was only done under the supposi. ion that
Mev were for the rse of other pc ople. Wal
lack says his refusal to allow plant ifs to
enter his theatre was an arbi avg one, as
was a'vO the resembling of the supposed
contract in managing his privat. business
and in directing who shall and who shall
not participate in the pleasures Of his in
tertainment, and he claims that the c0lOred
men were not excluded because Of their
race.
In consideration Of this, the answer closes
by asking that the complaint be dismissed
This answer was not swofl to, although the
complaint was, and ex-Judge Culver de-
cl1ed to receive il "a an 7swer r1til veri-
fed, and returned the papers t. counsel for
the defense. They were sent to him again
yesterday, within which 1t was stat I'd that
Wallack declined to swear to the papers,
because by SO doing he would subject him
self to a suit for felony.
In excluding these men from his theatre,
he committed an act, the highest charge
against which is mIsdemeanOr; conse-
quently, he can not be indicted for felony.
There is section Of the code which pro-
vides, that when complain is sworn to-, the
subsequent ans wer sha'l likewise be veri
fed.
Judge Culver demands that the code
shall be complied with, and until it is
done he W III not consider the answer valid.
If the counsel for the defense continue to
refuse to swear to their answer the case
will be taken before the Judge by the coun-
sel for plaintiffs, and decision will be de-
manded
