THE FAIR FOR THE ORPHAN GIRLS ASYLUM
On Saturday night Armory Hall was thronged
with visitors from an early hour till midnight, and
the benevolent lates reaped rich reward for their
exertions The ladies were pertinacious and the
gentlemen liberal, and great deal of money
changed hands in a short time. The principal
attraction is the picture of Margaret, the maid Of
all work, and whose honest face is known all
through the city by her milk cart This humble
woman devotes her life to the performance Of the
meanest drudgery, for the support Of the children
If JEANNE Deans and Grace Darling deserved
statues, we think Margaret's picture may wei
grace the hall of the asylum. The picture i
painted by Mons. Amans. The group consists @
Margaret as the principal figure, with the RICH
arm encirclng child, and another is reclinin,
on her, as if attempting to climb into her lap. w
learn that our worthy Postmaster, Mr. Musson, con
ceved the idea and Mons. Amans carried itipto exc
cution and presented the picture to the ladies'. Ar
isnever more beautiful, than when thus contributp
to the of benevolence. As to the charms {
the fair vendors, we leave those to be admired an
dreamed of by younger men, all of whom will b
gladly welcomed, and their money most advan

The injunction obtained by the Directors against
the Council was argued on Saturday. The subject
is now in the hands of the Judge of the Fifth Dis
| trict Court and we doubt much whether any COM
ments of the Press can add to the force of the
guments urged by he,counse whose duty it has
been to represent the respective sides OF this
happy controversy. As, however, the Directors
have been assisted with the luminous commentaries
Of the Delta, we trust it will not be deemed imper-
tinent if we throw in line or two on the other
side.
The right of the Council to repeal the ordinance,
creating the offices of the School Directors, is
conceded. The Delta quotes the repeal of the
Judiciary Act by virtue of which John Adams
midnight Judges were ousted But it says that the
preamble of the ordinance condemns the Directors
without hearing and, therefore, the ordinance
itself is null One of the legal truisms is, that
the preamble is no part of the statute" 1t is a
curious process of reasoning by which the pream-
Die is made to control the statute itself But what
was the intention of the Republican Congress in
/ repeating the Judiciary Act? The Delta admits
it was to get rid of the midnight Judges Yet,
the constitutonality Of that law was never ques-
toned So the object of this ordinances is to re.
move Board of Directors, who, it is charged
have disobeyed the ordinances of the Council. In
/ what do the two cases differ ?
In both, officers obnoxious to the law making
power, turned out of Office by the repeal of the
law creating the office. If one is valid, why moi
| the other?
Leaving the question Of the power of the Counci
out Of view, we recur to the propriety of the
course. The Council puts the Lyceum Hall il
charge of the School Directors, but placing certain
limitations their discretion. The Directors NAL
allow it to be used for certain purposes and not 70
others. They disregard this limltation-they ex
coed their authority-and when reminded by tn,
Council Of their error they refuse to retract wha
may have been an inadvertent act becomes al
Intentional refusal to obey the ordinance of tn,
| higher power Under these circumstances, tn,
Council had but one course to pursue, to rid them
selves in the easiest manner of those who put the
authority at defiance, and treated their ordinances
with contempt.
For our own part, we no objection to lending
the Hall to the Orphans but the Directors had ne
right to do So The ladies' having charge OF tn,
Fair, with great Propriey withdrew their petition
But this does not affect the question. The Direc
tors have refused to obey the ordinance unde
which they have charge of the Hall The Counci
had two modes of proceeding to repeal the or
dinance by virtue of which the present Director.
| are in Office or to institute suit which would be
decided long after the term of office had expired
Having such a high authority as the action of a
jehersonian Congress, they chose to follow " the
line of safe precedents and have repealed the or.
dnanoe. The point they will argue before the
courts and the people.

A BOOKSTORE IN BKoADwAY.-The New
York Mirror thus describes the new store Of the
Appletons. The high price of lots in New Orleans
aud the enormous rents, prevent our booksellers
from occupying stores sufficiently spacious to admit
oil IouNging. Oftentimes man hardly knows
what he wants, bat if let alone and permitted to
look over the books at his leisure, without being
pressed he viii manage to empty his purse in any
well hl!ed store. Our dealers in books have Iarrr
and costly stocks, as we have found out, but they
lack elbow room. The display of elegant book $
on Their tables and shelves is sufficiently tempting
without the architectural aids which the Annie
tons enlist in their service. We are glad that such
enterPrising booksellers are making fortunes
