The New Orleans Tribune

[2] The Tribune was founded in 1864 by Louis Charles Roudanez, a free man of color.

[5][4][6][7] Jean-Charles Houzeau, a Francophone astronomer, author, and abolitionist from Belgium, worked with Roudanez at both his newspapers, beginning in 1864.

He wrote an account of these experiences, along with the volcanic politics of the day, My Passage at the New Orleans Tribune: A Memoir of the Civil War Era, which was first published in French in Belgium.

Severe intraparty feuding took place over Republican political candidates for the 1868 gubernatorial election.

It was briefly revived after the election of Northern Republican Henry C. Warmoth as governor of the state.
