Loose Items Concerning Changes Picked
Up the CuslOm-HOuse.
No less than two hundred persons were con-
gregated in the corridors Of the Custom House
yesterday morning, and many OF them
REMAINED FOR HOURS
awaiting an opportunity to present their ''peti-
TONS to the powers that be- for various positions
in the building.
Just how many changes will be made is not yet
known, nor will it be perhaps until the return OF
Messrs. Anderson and Wells, who are not now in
tho city. but who are expected daily. Mr.. Champ

Now that the war is over and the blue and the
gray, which. by-the-by, agree well together in an
artistic point OF view, can blend and harmonize
without any fear of conflict, the citizens Of New
Orleans havo decided upon bringing the two to-
gether in one great social gathering, whore by
cones will be.proved to be by-gone, and liberty,
equality and fraternity, will reign upper
most. Our ladies', who have sdored the
gray, are now well inclined toward
the blue since the blue, according to the theories
that govern art and nature must, In order to take
its place in the landscape, be blended, and must
harmonze with the universal gray. Credit must
be given to the New Orleans Club for the happy
idea of bringing the two together in social
gathering. On Thanksgiving Day tho national
blue volunteered to aid the people Of Louisiana
in the celebration OF the States delivorsnce from
carpet bag usurpation and tyranny and the iron
rule of bayonets. That WAS conservation OF
the holy right Of brotherly love that ought to
unite the North and South. Our people, who
would have resisted to the death any en-
croachments upon their rights, and who would
have fought anything in the way Of the estab-
ishment Of their rightful government, now OPT n
their arms and extend the hand of Fellowship
to their brothers of the army, who, we must say,
have never loved the role which has been forced
upon them by the absurd policy of now happily
defuact administration. I'VE welcome the u est
projected reunion as the seal OF peace, and only
regret that discipline and orders will not permit
our nds Of the Plymouth to Join in the testivi
ties,

Dim visions of where that 5000 came from arise
in the mind, and the recollection of midnight Or
ders and daylight orgies come back. As \. rule,
the Judge never went in much on buried treas
ure He had keener appetite for those nearer
at hand. His Newburg friends, however, ought
to keep clear westher eye open 1t they should
succeed in recovering anything, for ii Durell is
true to his old character, he will come some in

ClyiLIT1Es EXCHANGED.

The Governor ana state Officers Visit

Gov. Nichols. accompanied by the Secretary OF
State, the State Auditor and Private Secretary
Cage, left the State House at about O'Clock
yesterday afternoon and proceeded, in carriages,
to the levee, from where they were conveyed

visit being return call for that paid the Cover

Arriving at the ship, the Executive and State
officers were met at the head Of the gangway by
Capt. Barrett. when the usual formal civilities
we're exchanged. the Governor being

the Governor and party, the dogs Of war were let
loose, 60 to epeak, and another welcome was ex-
tended in the way of Governors salute from the

After social chat on board, the party again

Packard's scheme.
Tyt. Louis Republican.

Packard's scheme, disclosed in his
letter to the New York Tribune, OF prov
ing from Republican figures that Tilden
was elected President, attracts no little
attention. Is it possible that it dis
closes the real point OF attack which the
Republican implacables intend to make
on the Administration? Are they pre-
pairing to charge that Mr.. Hayes is an
usurper? It would be singular phase
in American politics il Republicans,
after doing all they could to put a Re-
publican President In office, should
then turn round and take up the Demo-
cratic quarrel against him, and attempt
to depose him on the. ground that they
had put him in office by fraud.

THE STATE BOARD OF CANvAssBRs

prepares an abstract OF the amount OF school
funds drawn during the past four years by the
various treasurers OF the parish school boards.
Until that is produced the committee can do
nothing, and with 1t they may be able to
ASSIST THE OTHER COMMITTEES,

State Superintendent should agree with the
Treasurer's books.

pear in the field.
Gen. Jack Wharton is not, however. al6rmed,
and takes the matter quito coolly, never doubt
ing for o moment but that the President will
keep bis word.

(tbe president) would request the Attorney Gen.
eral to
CALL FOR PTTKIN's RESIGNATION,
further informing him that he might return to
Louisiana, assured that he would receive the ap-
pointment.
The trifling (2) hitch in the appearance OF Gen.
Wharton's commission is attributed by some to
the fact that ex-Gov. Ames and Ben Butler are
fast friends Of Pitkin, and are doing what they
can to keep him in position. From grape vine re-
ports 1t s learned that they urge Is q reason why
he should be retained-hrst, his competency;

Yesterday afternoon Gen. Grant went

he had placed himself, and he passed
through the exhibition building alone.
Passing out into Elm Avenue he put

who escorted him to the Trans-C Cont
mental Hotel. He was followed into the
hotel by large number OF people, who
had recognized and who desired to geta
good look at the man who welded the
destinies Of this great nation for eight
years.
After getting into the hotel the Gen
eral very coolly drew cigar from his

to room in the rear, and for half
hour was gazed at but he smoked on
unconcernedly, standing in the mean
while under huge sign containing the
words, "To the bar" twas evident he
