THE CALLED JADE WINCES.

The "immovable neutrality" of the Plea
yunes proving to be very inconvenient ar
tcle for that journal just now. 1t finds itself
in that perplexing attitude of the philosOphi-
cal ass, who between two bundles of fodder,
starved to death ia discussing the point as
to which bundle he should first attack.
The movement Of the white people, and
the determination to draw the lines, have
made their impression upon the Picay"ne, and
satisfied it that neutrality" on that ques-
ton will not pay. Hence the recent boast
of that journal of 4" insisting that the white
people of the State, the property holding,
industrious and intelligent white people, are
the proper ones to rule its destinies."
When the organization Of these "intelli-
gent and industrious white people" is per
fected under the banner of the Democracy,
the "immovabe neutrality" of the Picdyumt
will again be found annoying, and will have
to be abandoned. Between the Republican
and Democratic parties, q immovable neu-
trality" will not be tolerated, and in decid-
ing the issue the Pic. may find itself left
"hgh and dry" 1t cannot conceal its past
Indifference to the cause Of the people and
the interests of the only party organized
against the Radicals, AMI its attempted sar-
casm upon the rebuke administered by the
BULLETIN to the City Administrators, is too
absurd to attract any attention.
Our position Is that white men and DemOc-
rats, elected by white men and Democrats,
must be held strictly accountable for their
official acts and in the filing Of offices pre-
ference should always be shown to white
men. We reiterate that this is proper, and
just "the way to save States and make COM
munities rich and prosperous" Our word
for it, the Picayune will soon discover that
the programme of the BULLETIN is the one
to win, and ere long we will chronicle the
fact that the " immovable neutrality" jour
nal has changed its base and is insisting
that the white Democratic party is the
proper one to rule the destines" Of the
country

WHY WE SHOULD ORGANIZE?

There are many reasons why the white
people of this State should Immediately
organize, and that too upon military basis.
The negroes have determined to possess and
control the government of this State, and
unless perfected organization is presented
to them, nothing will deter these sem-bar-
barians in their fiendish and bloody pur-
poses.
We have before us letter of warning from
an anonymous writer, it is true, but none the
less significant, to a prominent citizen who
has taken lively interest and an active part
in political affairs. 1t is timely notice, and
one our people should act upon without
delay.
Let our citizens be cautious and watch
full and prepare themselves for any emer-
gency.
Read this letter, and ponder upon it:
Dear SW-It would be well for me to in
form you that an organization is now on
foot in this city and throughout the country,
among the blacks, and that when the whites
least expect it there will be massacre
mere. The whites here have no perfect Or
ganization to my knowledge, and unless
they set immediately to work, and have one
on a military footing like theirs, they will
survive only to repent.
A FRIEND AND WHITE REPUBLICAN.

The kind of weather which discards over

The kind of weather which discards over
coats and coal fires having become the
fashion, our fire laddies begin to think of
their annual excursions. First on the list
is Mechanics No. 6, who intend to make a
four days voyage over to Galveston. This
is departure from the usual style, and has
one advantage which should not be forgot
ten. Citizens of New Orleans and Galveston
have never been brought i'll contact except
by way of transacting commercial business
otherwise they do not know each other.
There is nothing like pleasure trip to make
lasting acquaintance and create good feel
ings generally. After No. tries the expert
ment on the Goth inst. it is hoped that other
companies will see what can be DONE Next
fourth of March it is thought that large
delegation of Galveston fremen will visit
our city.

THE LEVEE CONVENTION.

In another column we print cOmmunica
ton from planter, in which the Levet
Convention is Overhauled in a manner al
once severe and lust. Never before did We
know body of intelligent gentlemen to bt
| so bamboozled and sat upon, so to speak, az
| was this Convention. Called in the interest
of the planters and with the special view OF
| arraigning the Levee Company fol
its manifest and gross dereliction OF
duty, the Convention permitted Itself
not only to be wheedled into endorse %
the Levee Company, but actually sat quiet
and listened to harangue from the man
who, more than the overflow, more than
everything else put together has cursed Lou
isiaHa,-the miserable usurper and arrant
falsifer, VIM. Pitt Kellogg.
When we read over the resolutions passed
by the convention, we can scarcely believe
it possible that they emanate from body
of men representing the planting interests of
Louisiana, and Of one thing We are quite sure'
they by no means represent the sentiments
of the planters, who are almost without ex-
ception opposed to the Levee Company, and
who would be very far from accepting the
simple promises of Mr.. Kenner to do "the
best he could as guarantee against future
overfOws.
The representations of Mr.. Kenner were
all very well, so far as the Levee Company
was concerned; they certainly presented
the case Of the company IN its most favor
able aspect, but there We're many lawyers
there and merchants who must have known
that the company had never complied with
the terms of it's contract, and Gen. Gibson
in mastery effort exposed the iniquity of
the law very clearly
How, then, a resolution commendatory of
the company could have been passed is
most difficult to understand. The leyee
matter was bad enough, and exhibited
weakness we never could have sus, ected,
but the invitation to Kellogg to address the
Convention was simply objectionable.
That this man, who has, with brazen
ef1rontery, usurped the seat which belongs
to Gov. John McEnery-that this man,
who was proven liar upon the
floor Of Congress; who insulted the suffer
ing people Of Shreveport by sham dona-
ton of $1,000; who has boldly made PROPOSE
tions to New York capitalists to go into
speculations with him in schemes down
here; who has, in short, proven himself to
be sneak, falsifier and a coward, should
have been invited to speak to an assemblage
of honorable gentlemen is humiliating In
the extreme. We are not sorry that the
usurper saw fit to take with him as an es-
cort and guard his Chief of Police. 1t
showed that he, at least, appreciated the
treatment that should have been melted out
to him.

The story is circulating at the West that
Mr.. Beecher says he does not believe there
ever was any such person as Adam. What
he substantially did say was, that the hui

that gentleman's folly. We suppose it to
be inconsistent with Mr.. Beechcr's idea of
divine justice to punish, on account of Adam,
world that has suffered no much ever
since in trying to dodge the weapons Of

A New York paper says that Sunday
opera in that city is costly affair. A first-
class quartet costs from 5000 to SlO,oOO.
Warren, of st. Thomas's Church, stands at
the head of choir leaders. He has SO, 600 a
year salary and house. One female singer
in the city has $4,000 for morning and after
noon service, and $1,000 extra for singing in
the evening at another church. Trinity
Church. though very economical, pays SlO,-
900 year for its music. A broker paid So
600 in one year for brilliant singing in the
elegant house known as Christ Church, on
Fifth Avenue. The writer says that in some
cases singers hardly get the burnt cork Off
their faces in season for the morning wor-
ship, and that men and women who sing at
the theatre until midnight on Saturday at
heavy salary, appear in the church to praise
the Lord.
