1t appears by the New Orleans news
papers on Tuesday that the Congressional Com
mittee holding Its sessions In that city has been
looking into the circumstances connected with
the establishment and maintenance Of the Ma
ttonnl Republican, a defunct newspaper that was
started In New Orleans IN 1871 as an organ Of
GRANTS Administration and the Custom House
Ring, as the National Rcpublicdn, printed in
Washington, is the recognized organ Of GRANT
personally. and OF the District Of Columbia
Ring. IL was shown that tho receipts OF the
Republican for advertising and tho sale OF papers
were not more than 600 per week. while the ex-
penditures amounted to $1,000 or more that
the names OF Its editors were carried on the
rolls OF the Custom House as Government OH
clals that employees In the Custom House were
assessed one dollar per month for the support
Of toe paper that some Of them were compelled
to subscribe for stock In the concern on pain Of
dismissal from ONCE; and that, when funds ran
short, payments OF $1,000 and $1,a0 at n time
were made In the Custom House to supply den
ciencies. And yet the poor thing died, notwith-
standing the Importance OF having q GRANT
organ in New Orleans.

just as it has been doing ever since they
were issued.
The plain truth Is, the Republican party
in the West and Southwest Is permeated
with imitation ideas, and the act of Con-
gress and the resolution of the Convention
nre but fraudulent devices for getting
around this thorny question.

The communication inserted in the columns
OF yesterdays TRIBUNE in reference to the Full
1crton Avenue Church contaiEed,i is said, some
errors Of fact which demand correction. The
meeting Thursday night was called by the
Board of Trustees to consider the financial con.
dition OF the Church, and to take steps for its
Improvement. For several years the finances
have been i'll an unsatisfactory condition, the
collections not meeting the appropriations, and
the md Of each fiscal year tllldiu. the Church
sented the matter to the congregation annually.
the horizon has ligltcned up for time, and
then atfnirs have settled back to their previous
condition. The Trustees have labored faith
iully to make inc ono and outlay meet, and
have cyen-whcn the Churcf's credit Was below
par--ggtren their own personal notes for loans to
Ilue over pressing emergencies The meeting
Thursday night was tue largest ever held in tho
church, the interest Of the people in their con-
dition being ut length fully aroused. Reports
with assets more or less reliable to meet about
oae-haf Of it, but ut the same time subscrip-
tions have recently been solicited, and received,
which, If paid, will prevent q debt from accu-
mu}ating hereafter. The exhibit for the future

congregation face to lace NTH the financial
problem.
The ways and means having been adjusted In
satisfactory manner, Mr.. Briec Miller, one Of
MIR. 1oung's war1nest supporters, rose and said
that, understanding there was some dissatisfac-
tion IN the Church in reference to the pastor, he
wished to bring tue thing to head, and intro
duced a resolution iudursing 1{r. Young and
declaring his nainistrations both In the pulpit
and as pastor entirely satisfactory. The issue
being thus forced, u rising vote Of the cougrcga-
tion revealed the fact that nineteen members
oil also members of the Church-wcrc dissutis-
with Mr.. Young's preaching, The eontemptous
allusion In the above mentioned colnn,uni<ss-
tion to this minority is beside the mark, as the
number, though smnll comprises some Of the
most prominent and influential men in the
Church, including three Trustees, paying one
fifth OF the actual cash received into the Church
Treasury. The attack Oh Dr.. Hedges Is claimed
to be contemplate, and the insinnution in re-
gard to bis medical practice in the congregation
unworthy Of notice DR.. Hedges has stood by
the Church through thick aud thin, anl his
purse has ever seconded his words. Mr.. Y. +.
Lawson, the managing editor OF the Sca,.dina-
rien-og-a -atne,ikanare't, although young man,
Is one Of tho principal business men in the
Church and an Important financial support.
As Is usual in church difficulties, the minority
was treated throughout with scant courtesy, and
a large number Of those who voted with the ma-
1ority in the cordial support Of Mr.. Young were,
it is said, thoroughly dlsgustcd by the action
of other Of his friends III their dominecring
abuse OF numbers.
