The death. Of the venerable George

lowing so quickly that Of his son, our
esteemed friend, William Woelper. will
be sincerely mourned by large circle
OF relatives and friends. He was a
native Of Maryland, had resided In this
State over forty years; was especially
identified with the early fortunes Of the
old City of Lafayette. and the Fourth
District Of New Orleans, and through
out his long residence had always shown
himself patriotic, liberal and faithful
citizen, true, honest and generous in all
the relations of life, and just and hon

Four British ships OF war, bearing the
formidable names OF Flamingo, Condor,
Shannon and Agincourt, have been or
dered to the Black Sea and the Danube,
to take position at or near the mouth OF
the latter, to guard British interests.
The right to do this is claimed under a
treaty to which Russia is party. But
it may be objected that it is rather late
to assert this right after the Russians
have passed the Danube, have entire
control Of both banks, have, in fact,
made it the point d'appui of their
movement towards Constantinople. II
Great Britain intends to intervene, it is
certainly good strategy to establish a
battery In the rear Of the Russian army,
whilst her main naval force concen-
trated In the Dardanelles will confront
the great army Of the Grand Duke
pressing on Adrianople thence to Con-
stantinople. The indications thicken
that John Bull intends to stop this
foolishness.

Hitherto the difficulty in this city has
been to get citizens to discharge public
duties required Of them. There has
always prevailed here great inclina-
ton and desire on the part OF all our
political fellow citizens to reduce their
sphere OF labor and responsibility as
much as possible when paid regular
salaries. When paid by the job, per-
haps, this shrinking modesty is not so
conspicuous. But the care and trouble
Of power and patronage have always
been great objections to holding offices
by quiet citizens having their own
private affairs to look after. We have
now the rare example Of public official
who is a notable exception to this preva-
lent disposition Of the citizens generally.
This is Administrator Mccartney, who
has gone into court and sued out
writ of Injunction against Administra-
tor Cavanac for this, to wit: That the
latter is proceeding in most wrongful
manner, by virtue Of an illegal resolu-
ton Of the City Council, to assume unto
himself and discharge the labors and
functions which rightfully appertain to
the Office and franchise of him, the said
| Mccartney, as Administrator OF I'm

serviceable, assumption by Administra-
tor Cavanac would vastly tighten the

It is to be hoped that our people will
show their full and hearty appreciation
Of the honorable distinction these gen.
tiemen have won, and Of the bold en-
deavor they are committed to, by
making o grand success Of their enter
tainment to-day. Their achievements
are just source Of pride to the people
OF this community, and it would be u
gross evidence OF all lack OF pub
lie spirit Ii they should not have
1t placed in their power to attend the
meet at Creedmoor as d team, simply
for the lack Of the funds to pay their
expenses. We feel assured, however,
that such will not be the case. Yet, let
no one take this for granted, and fail to
contribute his mite by attending the
sports to-day.

THE INVESTIGATION RESOLUTIONS

The proposition of Administrator
McCaffrey for the appointment OF GER
tain committees Of outside associations
and corporations to investigate charges
against the administration OF certain
departments Of the city government,
was happily met by Administrator
Denis In his brief and pointed remarks
In opposition thereto.
PROFESSIONALLY the courts and the
Legislature are the proper bodies to ex-
anime all such charges, and 1t Is quite a
descent from the dignity and manly
sense OF propriety OF the administra-
tors to call in unauthorized parties to
inquire into and pass upon their acts.
Administrator Denis might have
added to his lucid statement for reject
ing this proposition Of Mr.. Mccartney,
that 1t Is not customary for public
officials. especially those elected by the
people, to give heed and consideration
and direct an Investigation to be had of
every idle and unsupported charge and
imputation upon the integrity Of their
administration. Let them require any
such charge to be specifically made and
indorsed by some responsible parties,
and then let them be Investigated by
the legal tribunals. II such charges
have the sanction Of any member Of the
city government the remedy and the
mode Of Investigation are provided for
In the city charter.
Any Administrator implicated In such
charges Is liable to impeachment and
dismissal from Office, but such impeach-
ment must be pursued by the regular
methods established by law, and not
based on mere rumor and the ifrespon-
sible scandals which are too often put
In circulation against all public Off
cials. We advocate and defend the
strictest vigilance and widest criticism
OF all officers, but we have no respect
or indulgence for scandals originating
In selfish disappointment or schemes OF
self advancem ent and the qualification
of personal or political malice.

MR.. sELPH DECLINES.

When all the circumstances are taken
into consideration, we are disposed to
believe that Mr.. Selph's course in de-
dining the appointment ON the Ameri-
can team in the International match, is
to be commended.
Under the terms established for the
selection or the team, two members are
to be appointed. and the rest are deter
mined by competition. The New Or
leans riflemen have not been encour-
aged to enter into this competition, and,
indeed, the regulations governing it gre
such, rs to Justify the belief that they
we're adopted withsthe purpose Of iex-
GLIDING competition from ell except the
Eastern States.
Hit is by no means improbable that at
least three of the places on the team
would have been won by New Orleans
men, and this circumstance would have
been quite as notifying to the New
Workers who have heretofore composed
the American teams, as would be de-
feat by the English in the inter-na-
tional match.
| Making up their team in their own
exclusive way, they can very we'll afford
to offer ono Of the appointive places to
Mr.. Selph, who has by immense odds
the champion practice score Of the
world. He would be an immense &C
ouisitioh to their team, but we think
that he has shown the true sense Of
,eblesse obIge in declining place ex-
| cept after competition, and electing to
remain with his club. There are three
other gentlemen in New Orleans
who have tied the score of Jew
cit, of New York, and one
other, Mr.. Eyyich. who has beaten it.
| There is every reason to believe that
the New Orleans team will beat the
score of the winners at Creedmoor, bu!
this prospect might be endangered II
Mr.. Selph were lost to the team. Such
a victory will naturally be more gratlfy'
ing to these gentlemen than any they
might contribute as members OF an
American team in an international
match, and we can but feel admiration
for the pluck they show in fitting them
selves as club against the narksmeI
