TIE GARDNER HOUSE,
before mentioned is being burned.
Although buildings to the north and
south of t have succumbed TO the flames
Van Buren, street seems to be about tue
northcrly line Of the fire, some buildings
were destroyed north of that, there be-
ing only the lake to the east of the hottest
fire with the wind standing rather to-
wards making our losses lighter than would
| otherwise have been the case.
MICHIGAN AVENUE HOUSE,
| which is situated on the corner of Congress
street. The Gardner House is safe, as are
also some half dozen large stores on the
east side Of Wabash avenue, South Van
Buren, street The building occupied by
the marble company, corner of Michigan
avenue and Van Buren, streets, and also
several stores which are occupied by the
art gallery are intact.
The fire appears now to be principally
confined to Michigan Avenue Hotel. and
when that is finally burned down there
will be little else but ruins to mark the
course OF to-day's fire
THREE MEN KILLED.
II. m.-Thc fire is now completely
under control, and it seems impossible that
there can be much further damage done.
Three men have been killed in Vananden

The Morning Star makes one suggestion
in the course of little controversy be-
tween us on the labor and employment
question. 1t says: ''Let the white peo-
pie 90 to work." to which we heartily re-
spond amen! If this advice, which the
REPUBLICAN has showered upon them for
several years, had been followed, we
should hear of less ruin and desolation,
but little if anything Of fears Of impend-
ing poverty, and Of plantations about to
be sold by the sheriff, to be bought by
the colored people and then suffered to
grow up to weeds. One of the strongest
reasons we have for respecting the colored
people of this State is that they do go to
work and try to make living for them
selves. They do not, like many OF their
white brethren, delude themselves with
the idea that the world owes them living
without any other effort on their part
than drawing at sight upon some friend
or neighbor or charitable association.
Let the fashion be for every able-bodied
man to find honest employment and stick
to it. Then there would soon be less fuss
about the pet grievances which are now
used and turned over as sort Of stock in
in trade by designing demagogues.

These figures may OR may not be accu-
rate. This is the affair of the census
bureau. They suffice to show that the
particular Christian persuasion which ap-
pears to be in numerical minority is
not entitled to claim that Louisiana is an
ecclesiastical province.
All sects and persuasions have equal
rights Of speech and action in America;
but none have right, in our opinion, to-
claim for any foreign corporation, ecclesi-
asst cal or civil, any jurisdiction incom-
patible with the paramount allegiance due
to the federal government. When it
s hall come to decision, however, to what
f oreign jurisdiction the ecclesiastical al
legiance Of the province Of Louisiana
is due, it will be found that the Baptists
and Methodists have nearly double the
nu mber Of churches and communicates
clai med by any other Christian church

by which they are to be accomplished.
And the advice which the Picayaue gives to
young men is not of the most exhilarating

pendents and do their level best to vote

into comfortable berth, where they will
have chance to resume the business of
redeeming Louisiana by Selling every
thing they can lay their hands on as they
did in 1861, and again after Lees sur
render, when the four million levee bonds
were issued and sold for thirty cents on
the dollar; the New canal given away;
the McDonogh school fund borrowed; the
Fink, Girod, Turo, ETC., ditto lost out of
sight; the First National Bank swamped
with vault full of respectable names,
and the city plunged into debt at the tune
of two millions year. The heroes of
eight years ago were out in force the other
night, and their neutral organ wants the
youngsters to stand aside and do nothing
but vote as their betters instruct them.
If such be the feast which was spread out
at No. 4S Magazine street we do not
wonder that the Bulletin complains Of the
want Of harmony.

THE MODERN PALLADIUM OF LIBERTY.

1
| The Bulletin has seen man who saw
another who saw a negro and white
man carrying dozen shotguns on board
of steamboat yesterday morning. A
wild rumor accompanies the recital that
these guns are to be shipped to the par
ishes. 1t is impossible, or difficult, at
least, to overrate the gravity Of the fact
thus discovered. There will be seen an
| evidence of portent in the very number of
the frearms-just the number composing
petty jury. Heretofore, our poor peo-
pie have been taught to believe that
twelve "good men and true," assembled
in a jury box, constituted all that could
be desired in the way of palladium of life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
But the times changed, and it became
very difficult to find in any one local
ity enough men of the proper material
to constitute a jury. The jury sys-
tenn has actually fallen through, or
threatened to do so, before the late
jury law was passed, and the colored
folks will hereafter depend to some
extent upon the same weapons for defense
that their enemies use for attack. A jury
is really no match for frearm. One
little pistol in the hands Of an active fell
low, if even a passably good shot, could
employ dozen juries during their lives
with bringing in verdicts Of acquittal.
The monotony of til e business might be
relieved little by exercising some in
genuity in varying the phraseology. For
instance, tie first verdict could be plain,
thus: ''Not guilty The second, "Ex-
cusable homicide, because the niger was
arrogant Then We could have little
emotional insanity, sandwiched with an
alibi, and at least one suicide in self
defense
The colored people and their white Re-
publican friends desire very much to
live and remain at peace with their
neighbors and fellow citizens. But when
they see negroes lynched upon bare sus-
picion Of larceny Of old silverware, and
their relentless white prosecutors ac-
quilted when cruel murders are proved
against them, they are regularly forced to
price "a few shotguns. Perhaps the
twelve which were seen going on board
the steamboat will be assigned to jury
duty. We hope so. Ii it be generally
known that in each negro cabin in the
country there. is lively weapon Of de-
Tense, there will not be such constant
recurrence Of homicides as have disgraced
the annals of this State for many years.
We expect these shotguns to prove IA
nous peacemakers.

A SMALL LEGAL POINT.

According to the theory of the counsel
for the defense in the Grant parish trial,
one Of the jurors was incompetent to
serve in consequence Of having been con-
victed of an infamous crime. If this be
be fact, and sufficient to annul the acts
of the jury, the men against whom YER
diets were returned have been improperly
convicted, of course. Not because the
testimony was insufficient; not on ac-
count Of their own innocence, but the
defect in the organization of the jury.
Our point of doubt is as to the status of
the prisoners who were acquitted by this
same defective jury. Having never been

and on ordinary occasions will doubtless
say with the REPUBLICAN that revenge
merely is barbarous, and not worthy q
civilized, to say nothing Of Christian
people, are pursuing this matter from a
feeling of spite. 1t is difficult, however,
to account for the venomous attacks
upon our able judge upon any other
rational hypothesis. The promise OF
several millions of rations from the
Federal government is accepted with a
snarl of approval; the proposition to ex-
pend $4,000, 900 on a work to make tals
port the rival of New York is listened to
without exciting special remarks and the
recent almost successful struggles OF
Generals Longstreet and JEFF Thompson
to have Congress take charge Of the leyees
are looked upon with apathy and IN
difference. Our youth may grow up IN
ignorance and idleness. The floods and
worms may come and destroy the hopes OF
the tillers of the soil. Wicked men in the
country may shoot each other down like
wild beasts without exciting uncommon
emotions. The grand climax of passionate
rejoicing is reserved for the supreme
moment when a gossip whispers in
the ear of the Bulletin that Judge Durell
has resigned or is about to do so. That
the man who stood between organized
fraud and the State Offices in 1872 is
about to retire from his present field of
usefulness, and leave to another the
thankless task of administering justice to
this mosaic community. What is there
in this circumstance to elate those who
never had much interest in the case out
of which so much i'll feeling arose? Why
should the lay mind be SO carried away
on point which even the lawyers are not
SO very clear about?
We are not aware that Judge Durel has
resigned The Bulletin declares he has,
but we doubt it. We do not say posi-
lively, one way or another, which it is,
for we have reputation to sustain. Our
readers remember what we say, and look
for accuracy. A paper that usually guesses
at everything, and is as often in the
wrong as right, is not restricted by any
such considerations. It can launch ahead,
and when it happens to hit the mark, de-
vote the next day to boasting of its pro-
phetic powers, and, when off the track,
invent another sensation to divert inquiry.

EXCEEDINGLY JOYFUL.

Some practical joker gladdened the
heart of the Bulletin the other day by i'm
parting to its least astute reporter two
very wonderful scraps of information.
First, that he was federal officer, and
consequently fully in the secrets of all in
like circumstances. He had his hand on
the national pulse and could tell to dot
what each man who regularly draws his pay
from the public treasury is thinking about.
He can compute to minute the full term
of the official existence Of every employe
of Uncle Sam, from Grant down to a
letter-carrier This prominent federal
official then informed the innocent young
man who gathers honey for the Bulletin
that Durell had sent his resignation to
Washington and immediately started after
it. This is of piece with the decapi-
tated king who applied to st. Peter for
admission through the celestial gates with
his head under his arm, and when the
grizzly old apostle hesitated about it
threw the head in his face, and passed in
while Peter was confused by the shock
Judge Durell has, then, according to this
veracious story, thrown his official head
into the face of authority, and now has
tens to the political Eden to mark the
effect
But with the inconsistency Of the story
we have nothing to Go. We are not
greatly depressed nor at all rejoiced by it.
We regard Judge Durell as an able officer
and well qualified for his position. But
the Republican party has plenty of others,
perhaps, who would do as well. If Judge
Durell desires to avail himself of the law
which provides for the honorable retire
ment of judges after ten years faithful ser
vice, the grief felt at his loss will be tenn
pered by the fact that we have Repub-
lican President to appoint his successor.
Hence we decline to come out with start
ling headlines about the matter one way
or the other.
We are troubled, however, to account
for the hilarity of the Bulletin. 1t can not
be that respectable journalists, who are
firm believers in the policy of burying the
resentments engendered by the late war,
