In o remarkable sermon recently
preached in st. Barnabas' Church, PIN
iico, the preacher proposed to consider
the reason why sinners were created.
The reverend gentleman attributed the
creation OF evil to God. who, he said,
had put sinners into this world as dark
shades are put into picture, "to act as
contrast to the brighter colors!"

HARD UP.

The Pioayune and Times are evidently
"hard up" for something wherewith to
fill up their columns. Yesterday morning,
the first named journal devoted over col
umn Of its space to stupid and nausea
ting recital Of stale and exploded joke
about one Tom Collins whose exploits and
capers reached the Picayune after they had
grown stale about town. Yesterday that
enterprising sheet the Times, believing that
it had discovered new sensation, and not
satisfied with the gross fraud that it per-
petrates upon its readers every day, in
dulged in a flight of fancy" that evidently
was intended to be a first class sensation.
But it's author was doomed to disappointment.
His lucubration fell fiat, stale and insipid
upon the public ear, and the column of trash
and nonsense in yesterday evenings Times,
descriptive Of an adventure with Tom Col
Inns, and designed for something smart and
witty, was perhaps the most complete fail
ure, and the most disgraceful exhibition Of
nonsense and stupidity we ever saw in the
columns of paper calling itself respectable.
We commend to the Picayune and Times the
services and talent of the youthful editors
Of the Young Pilot, whose addition to their
editorial staff, we believe, would give little
tone and character to those journals having
double the circulation of each other.''
Let the Pic. and Times stick to their legiti-
mate avocatian-the praising and support
ing of Kellogg's usurpation. When they
step beyond this and make attempts at wit
and pleasantrie, they signally fail and render
themselves the general subject Of ridicule.

A COMFORTABLE OFFICE.

One Kenner, an officer under Administrator
Lewis, and supposed to be superintendent
of streets, is fortunate and happy individ-
ual. He rejoices in the possession of stud
of blooded horses, together with an array
of grooms that would make lord or a
boswell sigh for such attendance. And yet
this little darkey rides about the city with
the air and Importance of Bismarck, all at
the expense of the tax payers of New Or
leans. His four horses and three vehicles
are groomed and polished by five or six lazy
negroes, whose whole occupation consists in
adjoining the regal establishment of their
superior negro officer, Mr.. Kenncr.
The white people of NewsOrleans pay for
this villainous and outrageous extravaganza
on the part Of officials and city depart
ment, which, if their honest dues were melted
out to them, they would find themselves in
the State Penitentiary. And this is SAM
pie Of our city government. We ask Mr..
Wilt to look into the workings of the De-
pertinent of Public Improvements. See to
it that the public are not robbed to enrich
trifing and unworthy negroes.

ANOTHER DEMoRALlzED JOURNAL.

The Baton Rouge Republican, following in
the track Of its illustrous headlight in
this city, is giving unmistakable signs OF
political decentralization. 1t has discovered
that the Republican party in this State is
not the purest in the world, and, unless
purged of its corruptions, will soon be de-
stroyed.
When this herculean task has been
accomplished and the Augean stables pre-
sent a salubrious and clearly aspect
we doubt very much if sufficient
number of pure and patriotic men will be
found remaining in the Republican party to
fill the offices of an incorporated town.
Republcanism and villainy are synonymous
terms. Disconnect the latter and no vestiS e
of the party will remain.
However, if we can believe two such
leading organs of the party as the New Or
leans and the Baton Rouge Republicans, the
work of publication is about to commence
and with it the work of disintegration will
surely follow, pari passu. Says the Baton
Rouge paper, writing of it's own party:
we may see UldU III Is Owing u UulS STedG
misfortune of having placed confidence in
men who turned out impOstors and villains,
that our public debt ssll bears so heavily
upon us. Sufficient millions have been
raised by taxation to liquidate it, if proper
ly administered-yet it has increased, and
the process of high taxation must still 60
on.
What then shall be done! What are the
necessary conditions of success? 'srhe par
ty must unload itself" 1t must kick out its
demagogues impure and dishonest men
WHO have heretofore had Office and dis
graced their constituents, and are still seek
ing office. 1t must choose men hereafter to
represent it, who are ambitious to achieve
the general good. Men who are above the
suspicion of being liars for their own ser
vice while appearing as the champion and
defenders of the people; whose past good
conduct amongst the people with HON they
have dwelt is beyond suspicion. In few
words, the main condition of success is
that the Republican party must have none
but good men as leaders, and put none but
good men in power and Office.

ANOTHER DE FACTO IN TROUBLE.

The so-called Lieut.. Gov. Antoine, OF
African descent and sable hue, is sharing
the fate of the "head that wears a crown
His recent visit to Baton Rouge was not
productive of the greatest harmony in the
ranks of his party, as the following card
from one of the faithful will show. The
Governor is denounced as liar and threats
are made to expose his connection with that
famous State House swindle, wherein he
played so prominent part. The card be-
low is from the Baton Rouge Republican, a
journal supposed to be in the interests of
the white Radicals, but with not much love
for darkeys such as Burch and Antoine.
Gradually we see the lines being drawn
by the negroes and white Republicans. The
official journal here is watching with keen
eyes the movements of the Louisianian, the
organ of the negroes, whilst in Baton Rouge
the Era (colored), and the Republican (white),
are equally viglant in their scrutiny of
each others conduct. So it goes. The day
will soon come when the negroes here will
array themselves in solid phalanx against
the whites. The sooner it comes the better
for the country, for the sooner the issue will
be settled as to whose care the government
of Louisiana will be entrusted; whether it
will be second st. Domingo OF an intelli-
gent and civilized State.
A CARD.
About the truthfulness of Lieut.. Governor
Antoine, concerning the two parties in this
Parish, | will state that the honorable
gentleman pledged himself before the Com
mittee of Eleven, of which was chairman,
and who waited upon him on the day pre-
vious to the meeting, not to interfere on
either side. Nevertheless, he endeavored,
at the mass meeting on Saturday last, to
widen the breach existing between us. He
told a falsehOOd when he gave his word of
honor that he would not interfere with
either side, and he went against his
own people when he attempted to clear
his skirts on the State-House con-
tract, and only succeeded in condemning
himself. think he would do better to stay
at home and not come among us to inter
fere with our local affairs. He has acted
ungentlenanly among u.s. as he told false
hood. Shame! shame on him! Let it 60
before the public and let them judge for
themselves. How would he like us to call
him to account for his conduct in the St.
Louis Hotel matter: Let him answer.
am personally responsible for the above,
and l ask him to remember his pledge to
me. j. l.. LEBLANC,
