POLITICAL EQUILIBRIUM.
Political Journudl are wathced and
the utterances of politicians are weighed,
with a- view of locating them, as to
the side- they mtiy espunie in the 1
next political convention of the repub- t
lican party in this state; and although it 1
seams to us entirely towo soon to ascer
tain the relative strength of the the rival 4
,andidates, the people are perfectly right
int canvassing their claims to positions of 1
trust. The maxim of judging the future
by the past is as sound in its application
to politics as it is in othe.r spheres where
it is accepted, and voters must learn that
changes dictated by caprice, or suggest
edl by mere ambition ar. likely to be as I
detrimental to their personal interests
as they may prove disastrous to the par
ty the people wish to be triminph int.
It is wel kn n )Wf t.t there rere diflerences ,
a: to the choice of men in the ranks of
.ll parties. Some men regard tu anom t
lies a Repunhir:an freetrader ; a tho
rough reconstnructionist who is at thie
same time in favor of universal ainnesty ;
a supporter of the administration who is
opposed to its re-eloction ; but after all
the surprise in such cases springs from
an imperfect knowledge of human nature,
or from a defective estimate of the in
fluences of the various aspirants to posi
tion, or perhaps worse still, from the uned
ucated belief that every member of a party
is as sincere as those who make it, or as
unscrupulous as those may be who can
command it.
We may as 'well accept the fact, that
when a party springs into power it at
once becomes an instr.ment.ality".inxthe
hands of those" w6 Idught it to thie elev'
enth hour, as wellrd' bflzhod h6"a
not worthy to belong to any other party;
and as zeal is more demonstrative in the
converts than in the childry born to the
.hurch, the m'worthy me always snatch
ing credit which is. due to the children of
the faith.

A LITTLE HASTY.
Here is what the State Journal says in
its last issue:
"The Iumi.ianian, a semi-weekly sheet,
published in the city of New Orlenns, and
ably edited by Win. G. Brown, Esq.
has within the last two or three weeks
thrown a few hot coals upon the head of
the New Orleans Standard, which shows
at once the attitude of the two journals,
both controlled by colored men. We can
readily see the reason of this, and laugh to
think a few country papers should pick
up the fight of New Orleans and make
it their own. N(w we dont propose to
do a years fighting before the battle
commences. In 1872 we, who live, will
see a contest unequalled in the history of
this country, and each of us will be
wanted at his post and tit for duty.
Our battle will be, not against each other,
but against a common political foe,
Democracy. We do not wish to meet
them, jaded and worn out by the tedious
uncertain results of a years skirmishing,
but wtlh full ranks and men well d:'illed,
1 standing ready to take the offensive or
assiume the aggressive jst as circumnstan
ces shall demand. Let calm dispassion
ate judgment guide us now, and when the
time shall conme for real work it will not
tind us unprcpared."
COM.ENTS OF THE LOVISIANIAN.
Our contehnporary is a little hasty: first
he is mistaken in supposing that both
the journals he refers to are controlled
by colored men. To our knowledge, the
Standard has never been controlled by
colored men. For some time the Standard
has manifested a little life and ability;
f but it was neither inspired by colored
men's talents, nor by colored men's money.
Now it is well known that the Lovmis
ASIAN commenced its existence with funds
subscribed wholly by colored men, and
it is equally well known that it has never
published a single line, as editorial, writ
ten by white men. This is susceptible of
proof.
Our friend seems to be hasty in anoth
er rcpe:'t. He has jumped to the con
, elusion that in our fight we need his as
sistance and that of his country brethern.
- W c, assure hinm no do not. We conduct
our journal to suit its editors and man
agers, and while we concede to all our
8 friends the right to criticise our course,
we do not think this freedom ought to
sanction impertinence, and beget ostenta
o, tious refusals to give assistance where it
has never been asked, and when it is not
likely it will ever be wanted.
Our friend gives excellent advice about
Y keeping "energies for the campaign," etc.;
' and in the light of his advice it is diffi
n cult for us to see the point and reason
of its refs rnce to ourselves; it may be,
Showever, that our friend has learned of
t the ,Standard's death, and aspires to like
e honors of martyrdom. If so, the knight
Swho slew that dragon still keeps the sad
4 dle, and is ready alike for mendacious po
; litical ahiets like the deceased Standard
e and impertinent onesJike the S.ate ,lour
Snal, who may wish.to ride into notoriety
- by breaking a lance with us.
M~. GREELEY'S VISIT.
e The discussion which sprung up im
a mediately upon the announcement that
I Mr. Greeley intended to visit New Orleans,
g as to how he should be received, present
. ed some features peculiar to Southern
e society. The effort on the part of demo
a. cratic and so-called neutral newspapers,
to roh a private citizen of the 1,leasures
Id of his sojourn here, by blatantly pro
of claiming their political hostility to him.
sl could not have occurred anywhere north
a. of Mason and Dixo's line. But, as in
r most simmlr Cea ,l taste wmnt hand
a in hand with abad caume.
is Mr. Greeley, the apostle of peace.
.- "came" and saw. and, with his peculiar
h weapons. "conquered."
At the entertainment tendered to him
ai at the American Union Club time instinct
or ive courtesy of the native ontlemen of New
r OrlOeans, triumphed completely over per
sonal spleen and political rancor, by re
g spending to the invitations of the club to
at meet Mr. Greeley. Over and above this,
ad a signal b!ow was struck at the useless
proscription whPich, like the ghost of
ke slavery it is, has risen, even in republican
r~ atherings, to frown back all negro
's guests. At Mr. Greeley's reception howev
sm er native white gentlemen joined in harm
e, onions and admiring attentions with na
rstire colored gentlemen, to the distin
d guished guaet. Senator Pinchback, Ad.

HATHAWAY INSTITUTE. se
Among the many schemes by which
northern philanthropy, has sought to C
make amends to the present generation w
of colored people for the evils which the al
northerners helped to foster in the past, p
the one just mentioned has been started
in our city, designed to answer a great ri
need in the community-that of well is
trained industry. Mr. Hathaway, in his a
self-sacrificing benevolence, has devoted r(
the whole of his remaining fortune, m
I $25,000 to the founding of a home for ti
the poor and friendless. A home in a
which the aged and infirm may have the ti
comforts which their helplessness de- a
mands, and in which the young may be tl
trained in industrial pursuits, and to a
which any in time of sickness may n
come for medical advice and medicine. n
It will be a year before the home can be ei
fully founded. At present the Board of ti
Incorporators have under their control ti
the rent of the property, which places at h
their disposal the sum of one hundred to
and twenty dollars a month, which o;
enables them to rent a building for the p
Industrial school and Medical Dispensary d
and to employ one teacher. ti
The State recognizing the importance v
of the work donated $5,000, which fi
enabled the Home to start the dispensa- h
yr. Both are now in full operation on
Franklin street, between Poydras and a
Lafayette streets. The smallness of the
sum of money at the control of the b
Boiard confines the work to one
branch of Industry, that of instructing
r women and girls in the different
branches of needle work. The good U
e which is being done in this department, e
t makes the Board of managers feel
anxious to increase it, and to enter
upon the work anticipated by the plan of I
t Mr. Hathaway.
' A sewing machine has been sent the
1 house, of Finkle and Lyon's manu
e facture, which has been a very great ,
Y blessing to the institution. The Grover r
and Baker company of New York have
partly promised to donate the Home one
of their fine machines, and we trust that
the good intent will be fullfilled.
The Board hope to have means placed I
at their disposal which will enable them i
to open a school for boys, in which they a
r will be instructed in trades and various
industries, and also for girls where the 0
arts of good cooking and every branch
of household industry will be taught.
We .think that every woman who is
plagued to find a competent servant,
will wish the lady managers all success
in their endeavors, and perhaps be
willing to send them a donation.
The necessity of the aged poor call
'r loudly for aid. It seems that there is no
provision whatever made by the State
0 for private beneficence.
About a month ago, word was brought
t to the Board of Lady managers that Dr.
't Hire, of the Charity Hospital, was anx
iously inquiring whether there were not
benevolent people ready to relieve the
wants of the colored poor at the Marine
Hospital; stating that there were some
n fifty-three gathered there,that their rations
were supplied from the Charity Hospital,
but every want beyond that of food and
e shelter, was their's in the extreme.
There was only.a small number of the
board present, but they immediately de
cided to go and see. They adjourned
d their meeting and went to the Manrne
SHospital. And their hearts were deeply
Y touched.
The great majority ef the inmates seem
ed worn out by field labor. They did not
find a person who could walk, those who
could move, hobbled; a very large num
ber were blind. Some men disabled for
life in our late war, ther6 found a wretch.
t- ed home, there were two there who are
said to be more than a century old-one
a poor creature called Aunt Charity,
· bent quite double with age, and blind,
s but of very clear memory, begged us to
- write, (giving full directions,) to her old
. master's family, feeling sure that they
th would do something for her, considering
m the great service she had rendered them.
~ e trust this charitable institntion will
receive the support of our people.
SWHY NOT.
SThe democrats found fault with Mr.
t- Greeley for coming to see them uninvited
Sby the upper ten of the past, and now
r- that colored men have responded to in
Svitation from the upper ten of the present,
to and gone into the American Union Club
is rooms to honor Mr. Greeley, some of our
s colored friends find fault too. They say
Iof it is humiliating for any colored man
Sto go the American Union Club, be
r cause heretofore it has been proscript
ro. ive both as to its membership and its
n. invitations. Very well: was it an im
i_- proper thing to do for colored men to
in- accept the ballot ? They had been pro
Ld- scribed, even enslaved : was it wrong in
Sthem to aecepet their freedom? Any sap
u position that the fautlt-finder think the'
o I we wrns in a.c-ping --tbhey
4t I etwed mn the way of frseend i an
Jb~aabqtU~i u,·TC~
sense, that the simple query serves its 'I
purpose by being propounded. -
t Now then, these colored guests of the tl
o Club did no more or less in moving for- g
a ward in the social pathway, than any and a'
e all of our race have done in making tl
t, political progress.
d This fault-finding has an aspect of the c
,t ridiculous in it. We all know that wealth a
1I is useless to noble minded men, except as E
s an agency to secure what naturally sur- A
I rounds those who are put forward, in the C
" main, by the people as their represents- a
r tives-in fact the people feel themselves
na little bit under representated when c
e their representatives are either too poor fi
or too stingy to entertain anybody; and
e they feel this quite strongly when nobody
0 will entertain their representatives. Is it F
Y not then ridiculous to suppose that a S
man who commands consideration a
enough to be invited to such a place as g
f the American Union Club, is either desti- S
1 tute of a sense of propriety as to whether I
t he ought to go or not, or coward enough a
d to forego a natural gratification and hon
h or, for fear that some one who could not
e possibly began invitation, would say they fi 6
Y did not go because they were representa- o
tive men, although the representative men a
e were invited, it will be seen, and the fault- b
h finders were not, "and yet they were not o
i- happy." e
n Let us drop this nonsense, and become u
d as proud of our successful men, as the tJ
e white race are of theirs, and it will not 6
1e be long before our union as a race will t
1e counterbalance the advantages, which d
g the white people wrung from our blood '1
in bondage, and are now coining out of p
d our disunion in the very hey-day of our d
t, enfranchisement.
el The Southern white man never asks t
rr our counsel unless he wants our help, a
let us make it a rule never to give our i
help unless our counsel is asked; and a
1l above all keep this in mind, that we al- f
ways help them without their asking, a
when we needlessly find fault with our t
ir representative men.

ht CARRIERS BALL.
x- True to our promptings we put in our
lot appearance at the Letter Carriers Grand
he Ball, at National Hall on Friday night
ne last. There was quite a large and re
ne spectable number of ladies and gentle
ns men, who dressed in the height of fash
al, ion, and in the hey-day of life and enjoy
nd ment, were enthusiastically tripping
"the light fantastic toe" as we entered.
he Dancing continued with alight intermis
le- sions until about 1 o'clock when interest
ed centred on the event of the evening the
ne selection and crowning of the May
ly Queen. The Committee withdrew and
after a brief absence in which speculation
m- on the favorite lady became rife, it was
iot announced from the orchestra that the
ho choice had fallen on Miss Lily Little.
m- This young, lady who was tastily attired
for in white, and in the height of fashsion,
ch was then conducted to a dais at the up
ire per end of the hall and seated.
ne Here she was attended by Misses
ty, Alice Somerville, Ellen Little, Amanda
ad' Bird, Sarah Haynes, E. Clark, and Anna
to Francis, as maids of honor, and sur
ld rounded by the entire company who
ey anxiously looked on at the approaching
tng ceremony. Mr. C. L. Wheeler advanced
n. and informing Miss Little of the choiem,
ill expresed his gratification in the per
formance of the task assigned him, of
adorning her head with ihe beautiful
crown and pronouncing her "Queen of
of the May." Mr. W. G. Brown on be
Wr. half of the Queen briefly and suitably,
ted responded to the dreu, ,and after a
ow round of cheerful apIau, the newly
in- elected lady was baqie rond the sp
nt, cious hall, to the sounds of m inspiring
lab j"march" by the band. This ceremony
our over, dancming was resumed and continued
say till supper time, when the .eomapany al
ian most rn masse paid their tribute of atten
be- tion to the well supplied supper table.
ipt- The bill of fare was well put up and
its judging from the evident qoid with which
im- viands and wine were disposed of, we
to think iti was a suces. The r.attling of
iro- knives and forks and plates, the popping
J in of corks, the ringing laugh, the cheerfl
up- chatting, the going hither 'and thither
hear all tendd to asate the meme one of
e hibarious emjgmemt1 aud we think
- is... m ... mud t&e a s ss.Mid
a "as ma riage bell ;" and te company
returned to the ball room and carrislout
e the delaration of the old song "We went
go home till morning ;" and so they re
d sumed the dance and continued it to
g their heart's content a.
We observed in the Company His Ex- as
e cellency 0. J. Dunn, Senators Pinchback ca
h and S. M. Todd, Hon. F. C. Antoine, Wm. ht
i B. Barrett, B. Geddes, W. G Johnson ; a
r- Administrator Lewis,Postr..aster Lowel, at
Le Coroner, P. Creagh, Captain George and as
- a host of others. t
SWe have no doubt that in the finan- re
n cial, as in the social, the Ball will be vl
r found to be a perfect success.
d
y DrruvuRm.--Yesterday the ateamship
it Frankfurt, for Bremen via Havana and
a Southampton, bore away among its pa
n sengerm from the city, Hon. C. W. Ring- b
r gold, Miss Ringgold, General George A
i- Sheridan, Mrs. H. Heidenhain, and Mr.
t Leon Populus. These passengers are on
h a summer trip to Europe.
)t CANAL oN CANAL Svrsr.-The idea of *
y filling up this unsightly thing is a good
I- one every way, but the cart seems to be
n a little before the horse. This canal has w
t- been serving a very useful purpose, and fI
t one for which it certainly never was in- bi
tended. The water from it has been
ec used repeatedly by our fire companies in
ie the extinguishment of fires on or near d
)t this street, and but for the supply from
11 this source, many a property would
h doubtless have been reduced to ashes.
d To fill this canal and not to lay water
of pipes along Canal Street would be inju
ar dicious and thoughtless. We hope that. m
our City Fathers will determine before o1
as they fill up the canal to be mindful of the w
p, necessity of providing a supply of water T
ir in case of fire. The objection of property
Id owners in the neighborhood against the I
l- filling up of this canal springs solely, we 0'
g, are confident, from this cause, and we *
ar think the objection very reasonable and
proper. m
Tas Fovura WAnD CLa will hold its i
regular weekly meeting to-morrow even- ti
th ing, and we are informed that invitations mi
i have been entended to Hon. O. F. Hun- A
e- saker, Senator from the St. James parish a
e and J. Sella Martin, Esq., to address the r
pt club. "In time of peace prepare for war"
. is a good !'aa:, .: we like to see our j
ward organizations not only preserving tl
their existence, but exhibiting signs of I
their vitality in courting the presence tc
and counsel of such able and undoubted t
Republicans. Boys, let us have a rousing
meeting, trouble will commence at 8 p. m. ai
prompt.
CrrY PARx AND Poucs.-We heard a
good suggestion to one of our Police a
Commissioners a day or two ago. It was
to the effect that at this season of the b
year when the City Park is so extensive- a
ur ly and so constantly visited by the pic- I
ad nic loving community, it would be wellg
ht to place one or two extra policemen out r
e- there, whose mere presence would serve
e- as a warning to a stray rough who might a
be spirited enough to render his conduct
y or language offensive. We think the in
timation a timely one, and therefore pass
it over to the police authorities with the
is- recommendation that it be adopted
he Par Consmsonazs.-Thess gentlemin
have safely ensconeed themselves on
SCarondelet Street, in Gallir's Court,
on where they have fitted up an ojee, and
Sseem as if they mean business. We hope
he ere long to be able to ehronmicl the smeo
le. cess of their efforts to give u a park '
commensurate with the demanda the har
t, oter and the predige of New Orles.
