A HI:IEF FAREWELL.

In an article, conspicuous for its
brevity, Mr.. G. W. Crane bade fare
well to journalism for the time being
at least, in Tuesdays issue OF the
Times.
In Mr.. Cranes vacation Of the tri-
pod, Louisiana journalism loses an
able writer, an editor who had the
courage OF his convictions, which
were expressed in conservative yet
firm, manly tones. His mental
genius did much toward maintaining
the cause his paper represented IN
the late factional fight, aud we think
all will admit that from his papers
standpoint, an able pilot WAS at the
wheel during the voyage.
The Times and The PROGRESS were
ne utter variance in the gubernatoria
camgaign, but in the heated conflict
we, nor none who disagreed with the
journal which Mr. Crane controlled
conld find fault with his method OF
dong battle.
In conclusion, we join with him in
stating that il there were faults IN
his reign as editor, they were OF the
head and not OF the heart, and in bis
retirement The PRooREss has nsugh,
but friendly feeling for him, and
hopes he will soon be handling the
Faber again M chief editor OF some
leading journal in onr State.
