This Is made to play an important part in the
tactics of the Delta. That paper, on several occa
sions, has spoken of the Crescent's opposition to
the Legislative arrangement of this vexed question.
The Crescent has urged the adoption of the plan
publicly, and one of the editors exerted himself
strenuousy TO perfect the compromise. 1t is true
that We think the present propretors should receive
some compensation for losing the front on the river
But this we thought of minor consequence when
compared with the vast public interests involved
The Delta claims the credit of having suggested
the terms adopted by the Legislature. The propo.
siton 10 convert this vacant and burdensome space
INTO private property, the proceeds to be divided
between the Municipality, the City, and the per
sons supposed to have an interest in it, originated
with our friends in the Council. 1t was adopted
by the majority. That plan gave one third 10 the
Second Municipality, one.third to the city, and
the other third TO the present front who
thus would be compensated for their exclusion
from the Levee. The Delta, on the other hand,
thought This third ought to be given to the persons
who We're front proprietors in $780, when the COM |
promise was made, but most of whom have sold
their lots, and have really no interest in the ques
lion. For certain advantages they aha ndoned m.
batture forever. They afterwards sold their lots
fronting ON the Batiure, and in that price sn,srsd
all the advantage derived from the compromise.

seemed TO us thai the present front propre,ors were
the parties eqnitably entitled to Compensation

The Recorders Law and Conscience.
We have before given the principal facts ELECTED
BY the examination of the witnesses in the recent
case OF suicide. The wife Of the fslo de Sc was
discharged by the Recorder, who stated that he
could find no statute punishing the act of being
accessory to the crime Of suicide. We recommend
to the Recorder that be initiate Dick, in the
farce Of High Life Below Stairs and look over
Lord Hale and Blackstone, some afternoon. We
think the Recorder might possibly imbibe an idea
or two about criminal law. He decided that
furnishing human being with poison, to be
used by him to produce his own death, was no
crime. He then proceeded to examine the morality
ef the transaction. He censuSed the woman for
the non performance OF her contract. She had
agreed to take poison with her husband, and after
~ had complied with his contract and, as the
kwyers say, had put her in mora, she violsted
the contract This was wilful violation of the
stipulation, and il the heirs Of the husband were
here they might sue her for damages! Z! This was
uttered, mot AZ jest, for will not do his excel
csllsnt heart the injustice to suppose for moment
that he would jest in delivering his opinion in so
grave matter. No, it was uttered with perfect
honesty and sobriety. Since the days of Justice
Shallow, there has been no such Scion on the
bench as our Recorder.
The woman, we are informed, behaved with great
levity on the trial, and seemed to regard the whole
matter a. a very skilful mode of getting rid OF
disaQreeable husband
