The announcement by the BULLETIN of the
sale Of the Picay,tne, elected from its former
proprietor the following card in yesterday s
evening edition:
The public may rest assured that there will
not be any change in the Picdgune as regards
either its tone, editorial conduct or business
management. A. NJ. HoLBRooK.
1t will be observed that Mr.. Holbrook does
not proclaim himself the proprietor, and at
the head of the columns Of the Picavme his
name is announced as editor. Gov. Warmoth
is the owner of the paper and Mr.. Holbrook
is his editor. This seems to be the real state
of affairs, so far as We can judge from facts
and appearances
Notwithstanding very long journalistic
experience, this is the first time, to our
knowledge, that Mr.. Holbrook has appeared
in the capacity Of an editor.
We give welcome to our venerable contem-
porary upon his advent in new field of use.

the last moment, yet we will say to him
''better late than never"

The associated banks of Philadelphia, at q
recent meeting, determined to make depart.
ment of coins and notes one of the features
of the Centennial exhibition. and, with the
purpose of giving it completeness and attrac-
tiveness, invited all national and other banks,
and all bankers of the United States, to send
representatives to convention to be held at
Philadelphia on a day to be appointed here
after, to collect, classify and prepare for exhi-
biting specimens of the coins and paper
money of the Colonies, of the United States
and of the several States, from earliest settle
ment of the country. Coined and stamped
money are instructive for their historic value
in illustrating the habits and ideas of q peo-
pie, and if the present enterprise shall yield
a full collection Of these objects, it will be
one Of the most interesting departments of
the exhibition.

In the course of our Journalistic duties, il
is often our sad province to chronicle the
taking off from life of many good and worthy
citizens. But now our task is doubly sad
when we are called upon to record the melan-
choly death Of our worthy and highly es-
teemed fellow-citizen, Mr.. James Boudet. 1t
is painful also to give forth to a heartless and
unfeeling world the fact that Mr.. Boudet
came to his death by his own hands.
James Boudet had been for number of
years an employe in the Sheriff's Office, and
was the sole support of an aged mother and
infirm sister. He was a faithful officer, de-
voted son and brother, and was driven to the
rash act by despair consequent upon losing
his position and his inability to provide for
those who were dependent upon him. He was
highly respected by a large circle of friends, to
whom he was endeared by many noble quail
ties of head and heart. His body was taken
charge of by the members Of Fire Company
No. IA, of which he was an exempt member,
and removed to the residence of his brother,
on Locust, between Poydras and Lafayette
streets, from whence the funeral will take
place to-day at 2:30 o'clock.

A RALLYING CRY.

To the Editor Of the N. o. Bulletin:
In your issue of this morning you urge the
organization Of all the opposing forces to the
present usurpation.
Let us go step further.
Let US organize the entire community of Ne,.
Orleans.
Let this organization be composed of every
man, woman and child opposed to bad gov
eminent and to bad men. Let the issue be
Honesty VS.. Dishonesty! Right VS.: Wrong
Virtue VS.. Vice!
Let the badge of this organization be 80.
K, Opposition to Kellogg"
Let us see who are on our side and who
are opposed to us. Not in political matters
For one man has as much right to be Re-
publican as another has to be Democrat.
This is not the question our people are trying
to solve. It is simply whether the Govern
in the community whether the Legislature
shall represent thieves only; whether the
judiciary shall remain below public contempt
and law a snare and pitfall for right.
Let the ladies of New Orleans start this
movement and keep it up! Let every one of
them, old and young, wear an 20. X" badge.
Let the young men follow the leading OF
the ladies in the adoption of this badge;
Let the children have 20. K" plays things.
wave 20. K" flags, and sing 20. K" songs.
Let there be 30. K" Dances 20. K" parties,
20. f." concerts. Let the ministers of the
Gospel offer up prayers for the triumph of
virtue over vice.
Let no occasion pass without an expression
against the oppression that now weighs us
down; contempt and scorn for all who aid to
that oppression, and separation
from them.
There must be rallying cry in every bat
tie; some "Cdroccio, bearing the sacred
the object OF all devotion. Around
this let all unite, as the Florentines of old
around their "Cd,rocciO."
"Opposition to Kellogg" 80. K" 30.
K" 80. K" Forever!!!
Yours, truly,
Nor AN OFFICEHoLDER OR SEEKER.

THOSE COVERT THREATS.

The correspondent Of the New York herald
sent the following among his recent dis
patches from this point
At the present writing there is no move
ment Of the White Leaguers, who appear to
be following their daily avocations. The
BULLETIN, however, in its afternoon edition,
just put upon the street, is warlike, and its
editorials have covert threats of hanging I'm
der the heading, 1.-THE Treachery Culmin-
ating," it says, speaking of Wells's adjourn
ment of the Board:
The fate Of the State is hanging in the bal
ance. The whole people Of Louisiana hang
tremblingly upon the action of The Returning
Board, and the people Of the United States
are hanging in expec ta}ion OF the result, and
yet Mr.. Wells has pressing personal bust
ness" which engages his attention. In other
words. he says to the people, go hang!
have something to attend to more important
than your business"
The accidental recurrence Of the word
" hanging" in the above sentence, is twisted
into s'covert threats" whereas the only threat
made was that put into the mouth:of ex-Gov.
Wells, whose action on the Returning Board
has been threat from the first day Of its ses-
sion until now.
When he decided to toss overheard the legal
returns of De Soto parish, he threatened the
liberties of the people; when he retires with
his confreres into q secret chamber to canvass
the returns of the election, he threatens the
liberties of the people; when he chokes off
debate and declines to consider evidence, he
threatens again, and the truth is, the people
have become heartily tired OF all this threat
ening We said nothing about hanging the
members Of the Returning Board, but We will
say that men have been hung ere now for
offenses much less grave than these men
have committed day after day, for more than
month, with perfect impunity. When we
indulge in threats, the correspondent will not
have to apply the descriptive adjective couevs
TO them

The executive committee of the National
Board of Trade has mstured plan which, it
is thought, will greatly assist the interests of
commerce. They propose the establishment
Sof a new executive department to be known
sas the department Of commerce" having
jurisdiction over all matters that relate to
commerce, including the preservation Of such
statistics as may be of value to commercial
men We agree with the Chicago Tmss in
pronouncing this proposition a bad one. There
are already too many departments, too many
officials, and the country is already governed
too much. Commerce is to great extent
independent OF government It is self-regu-
Hating, The laws Of trade are more potent
than the laws of Congress, and could not be
assisted by department Of the federal gov
eminent We trust the recon mendation will
not be Endorsed by Congress.

THE NEW ORLEANS BEE.

We have been favored by our nightly es-
teemed confrere, Mr. Felix. Limet, chief editor
of the Bee, with the official report of the COM
mittee appointed to receive subscriptions for
the benefit of the citizens who were wounded
on the 14th of September last, and for the re-
lief of the families of those who lost their
lives on the same occasion.
The report is signed by Messrs Felix
Limet, B. Saloy, E. Monteuse, John Glynn,
Jr., and by Messrs. ]. Meunier as president
and E. Carriere as secretary of the committee
These gentlemen have received the sum of
S1972 80, which has been distributed in
sums ranging from $3.50 to SIS, $50 and s25
among the various parties for whose relief
the money was subscribed. A detailed state
ment of the manner in which this distribu-
ton was made will be found in this morn
ing's Bee, and it is superhuous to add that
the high character of the gentlemen compos-
ing the committee affords the amplest security
that the intentions of the donors were fully
carried out.
Our friends of the Bee deserve great credit
for the noble initiative they took in this mat
ter, and for the judicious manner in which
they have performed their self-imposed task.
We gladly avail ourselves Of this opportunity
to tender to Messrs. Limet and Dufour our
warmest acknowledgements for the many pro-
fessional favors we have received from them,
when we were obliged to have our paper
printed outside of our office. Their courtesy
and kindness, in giving us the use of their
press, we can never forget, and we beg to
tender them on this occasion our most heart
felt thanks, both for the service rendered to
u.s. and for the gentlemanly manner in which
it was done.
