No propositionu can I c:lea:rer than that the State Central (ommlnittee was intended to be, and should be, organ ized in the interest of the whole party, and that the issues between Democratic aspirants should be prohibited in its councils. Accepting this theory as correct, it is not strange that man y of the members thought that there should he a re-or ganization, and that MIr. F'itzpatrick, the president, who is an active, vigor ous and determined partisan of Gen. Ogden, should be replaced by a nmore moderate, temperate and judicial pre siding officer. Whatever doubts we may have entertained, prior to the meeting of the committee, as to the policy or wisdom of such a course, they were fully removed by the violent and revolutionary methods to which Mr. Fitzpatrick resorted to prevent such re organization, and suppress the will of the majority. We have seen such rul ings resorted to in Radical conventions, where the duty and plurpose of the chairman were to overlorle tlhe ma jority, but we challenge any of our Democratic friends to (rite any such rulings in any D1)movratic body utit side of New Orleans ward club. 'TIhe scheme of revolutionizing thel tmu nit tee appears to have been illauguralt'd aI few nights ago in the tI wotlil ward, where the effort was 1ilet(. in -pitle o, reason o(r ju.stice, to ii re out" i t' rin-lll her adverse to the ininte i"y, anll it w;t.. continued by the ruli,:-, I the late chairnian yesterday.

WIiEN YOU WALTZ WITH A BEtAR KEEl'P 'OUt EVEON YOUR PAItTNER.'" This axihnm tof the frotiersruan might be I,rotitably applied to the present imanne r of cuonducting polities in Louiis i\lhenl a mian i elected to an oillice that ha appoiintmlents to give, he soon fihds himself surrounded Iy all sorts of I people who want fat places for either themselves or their friends. These are the hears. They are perfectly willing to waltz right through the term of the administrationi on terms oif mutual friendship, plrovided they get what they want; hut if they fail, they dis cover rings, cliques, corruption and all the evils that the State's body is heir to. 'l'hlt is just exactly the case in the present contest. There is ia clique of politicians in the State who were the power behind the throne of previous administrations, a\\rmoth and Kellogg not excpted, whose voice in the selection of appoint mejits to otfice, and in shaping the policy of the administration, has had no force with Governor McEnery. In lii experience he has found it beneficial to keep his eye on these bears, and he has not allowed them to get him in their embrace. For this season they have raised an awlul howl against him. Every act of his administration has been abused, misrepresented and preverted in order to set the public mind against him. Although, by his wise and prudent administration of the State's afftTairs, he has raised it up from a condition of financial and commercial delpoundency to that of thrift, activity and plrosperi ty, he lhas never received a word of I comnietldationi front the crowd of politi .catl lharnafctltWio whom he declinetd to give applloilintments to at the eOxpenseI of these hiis, plredecesser had appoint.
