From the N. Orleans Chronicle Of Feb. 4.
The batture of the Fauxbourg St. Marie
has been fruitful subject OF litigation, con-
troversy and discussion for the last ten
years. The abIest jurists Of the United
States have in one way or other, been en-
gagged in the subject. Congress has more
than once discussed it 10 long and loud de-
bate and he legal, literary and controver-
sial world was not long ago favored with
mastery pamphlet from the nervous and
eloquent pen of Mr.. Jefferson and one
in reply from his opponent, Mr.. Livingston,
which the editors OF the Law Journal char
acterze, and we are told justly, as zone OF
the most able and mastery performances
that ever came from the pen OF a lawyer or
scholar in any country" These editors,
moreover say that Mr.. Livingston answer
sis emphatically "replique sans response,
and infer bis being restored to the posses
sion and quiet enjoyment of his long con-
tested property. In this, however, they
appear to have erred the GLORIOUS uDcer'
tairty of the law'-so much and so justly
worshipped by its professors--is their a.
po!osy, if any be required.

MI. Livingston has been fated TO expe,i.

Mr.. Livingston was put in posse ssion os
the hatture, under decree o. The Federal
Court in the year 1914. Some time ailc,
two suits were instituted against him in r..
lat'un TO that property one On the Dart O;
certain proprietors of lois fronting Oh bi,
possession, claiming right in tie soil l..
tween their lois and the river: and second
on the part of certain of the heirs OF tie
common ancestor, under one of whom Mr..
l.. held. These cases have excited gtea,
interest; as well from their subjec, matter
and the amount Of PROPERTY in dispute.
as the variety and difficulty of the ques.
tions which they involved. After MAN.
long and able discussions at the bar. and
after great deiberaton Of the Judges Of
the Supreme Court, they delivered yester-
day, final DEGREES in both these Cases.
First as to the claim oftte heirs ofBertrard
Gravier,-under one of whom Mr.. L. holds
an adverse po'sesion,-it was decided.
that they were entitled to three four,hs
of tie property in the banure, but bound
to reimburse Mr. L. proportionably for the
labor and expense he had incurred in re-
claiming and improving it. Secondly, as
to the front propriesors it Was decided that
they were entitled 10 tie 6Gnure or a!u-
won fronting ;heir los.
The principle oflhis last decision extends
in IFS operation, as We understand, but 10
a very small portion OF the batture. A few
of the front ?roprietors, among whom were
the plaintiffs in this action. hold under sales
made from the Gravier plantation. at Pc
Rod long antecedent to its being erected
into tauyheurg. The other front proprie-
tors, we are informed, purchased after its
erection, by prescribed limits under De.
signated plan Of the proposed ely, and
hold their property by tenure materially
different from that which has been decided
u"on.
How far the decisions Of which we have
spoken 60 TO quiet the long aghated sub.

ook with favorable eye upon the rights

any such disposition made of the property
as would leave him unrequited, for the great
abor, large expenditure and extraordinary
talents, which he has brought in support Of
bis title.

materials for such a ministry as the French
empire deserves. The change is attribu-
ted to a clashing between certain domes-

of this and that political improvement

DISTRESSING OCCURRENCE.

On Friday last. Maria Van Valkenbureh,
aged al,ou, nine years was burnt to death by
her clothes accidentally taking fire while en-
gagged near the hearth. She was at neigh
boring house where there were two or three
children smaller than herself, the mother OF
whom had just stepped out. Her clothes
caught FIRE behind. and when she discovered
it, she rushed precipitately into the street,
screaming for help; but so rapid were the
flames, being exposed TO the air, that before
ary person could gst TO her assistance, her
clothes we're nearly burnt off her back, and
the skin burnt to crisp. The unfortunate
girl expired in about IL or "A hours.
