Gone Away-The editor Of this paper has
gone to Crosse Tete to ruralize for few DAYS,
and trusts that no great neglect in consequence
will be perceiyable in the present number
He will not, as it is customary with editors on
such occasions, make an excuse for the lack of
editorial articles, as it is extremely probable
that such an occurrence is deemed quite a treat
by many of his readers. The fall is approach
ing, when warm political contests are to come
off, and we advise every Wing in the parish
though there should not be a "corporal's guards
left, to take his pleasure now, that he may be
ready, when work is to be done, 10 perform the
part which the party he acknowledges expects
him to perform.

Steamboat Racing

Notwithstanding the narrowing accidents,
resulting from recklessness and carelessness;
that have SO frequently happened of late years,
by getting up a high pressure of steam in "a
cling or to make quick trips, the cnstom does
not appear to abate--and never will, if ever,
until some terrible examples are made of those
who are the indirect if not direct cause of them
The following remarks Of the Delta should be
universally approved:
1t is said that immense sums Of money have
been bet on the result of the EcIipse's trip to
Louisvllle--it being understood that she was to
make the "best time" this season. We con-
slider the best time, in this instance, the worst
time. We are heartily sick of railroad disas-
ters-deiiberate massacres--and ~ruinous "acci-
dents" which are the consequence Of foolish
bravado or insane ~avarlce. The business of the
country-its commercial afairs-can be con-
Quoted al a moderate speed, with az satisfactory
a result as if it were transacted by lightning.
Steamboat racing may be very exciting and
pleasureable to idiots--but in the face of re-
cent tacts-stern, solemn, implacable witnesses
against tive cannot give it our unqualified
approval, and must use towards it, instead, a
deliberate condemnation. Human life should
not be thrown into one scale and dollars and
dimes into another. The existence of a va
grant, even, is Of more value in the sight of
God than the accumulation Of golden millions.
Yet, of late, Life has frequently been weighed
against money, the former kicking the beam!
The parties who encourage this system, and
speculate on disasters, by extravagant wagers,
are almost as criminal rs the employers who
enter upon it for the realization of a little capt.
tai, in ready money, or in notoriety. Public
opinion must be with this racing madness, orr
could not exist. 1t must have hackers, or it
could not stand a day. We are resoIved-as
far as our poor influence goes-that it shall be
secuted as an insanity, or punished as q crime.
1t is very probable that the Eclipse will not
blow up or burn, but reach ner destination in
safety, and be greeted with unanimous applause
by the reckless multitude. But that probabil-
ity does not justify the conduct of the officers
who started, with malice prepense, on a racing
tour. and made the lives oftheir passengers de.
pendent on the ultimate capacities of the ma
chinery. Neither does it justify the individuals
who, safe on dry land, urge on the rccklessness
of the directors by their desperate gambling in
blood.
We trust that public indignation, aroused at
last, will brand this racing business as a crime
against the community.

u The Plaquemine Sentinel refers to the
importance Of an Editorial Convention, which,

Fourth Of July. Is notthis an error! The call,
as published, was for a meeting of Printers and

papers in this State. The word spublishern is,
perhaps, more correct. Nearly all of them are
editors, and a great majority printers. The
call is, then, emphatically, for the publishers;
and we trust oil the newspaper publishers in
the State will attend. Great advantages to the
fraternity and to the public will be derived
through this Convention and the reform it con.

Agnes Anderson.-W Whatever might have been
the early career Of Agnes Anderson, arraigned
on Saturday last at the First District Court,
for the murder of VIM. Taylor, we should pity
the stony condition of that heart which could
not be touched by the agonizing appeal she
made to the Court. Il wis.,! you would make
haste, and get done. l wish you would hang
me at once, and be done with it. Icannot live
in Jail. loved him, and | will die for him."
The hysteric and excited condition of her
system-which both, perhaps, impelled her to
the commission of the frightful deed of which
she stands accused, and sustained her for a
time after Its commission-seems to have pas.
sed away. The reaction is fearful. Her wo-
mans nature has returned, and scenes of tender.
ness and love rush back to her memory, onIy.
however, to give additional force to the agony
OF her soul, when she thinks that he who shared
them with her-whom "she loved, and would
die for'-was sent by her own hand, unanealed,
into the presence of his God. She saws she
cannot. live in Jail. Alas. were she bodily free
tomorrow, her mind must ever be a prisoner:
tor, DO what she may, her thoughts can never
get beyond the narrow confines of that dread
room, where the fearful struggle of life and
death took place, and where lay the manpled
corpse OF him she loved, and would now die
for. Guilty though she may be, we saw, with
all our heart, God help her della.

Election for District Aaofnep.-This cleo.
ton comes off en- Monday next. It will not, of
course, be made political question. But, like
the election for Judge last week, where one
was known to be Wing and the other a De-
mocrat, anybody, almost, can tell what the re-
suit will be in this parish. We are beginning
to despise the Elective Judiciary, in conse-
quenee of what we know and have seen of its
practice. Had we have known previously
what we have learnt since the election for
Judges Of the Supreme Court, we never would
have supported such a system. Partyism in
this respect went so far in New Orleans that
regular Democratic nominations were made for
Judges of the District Courts! We much
prefer having our legal rights in charge of a
Judge appointed by the Governor, however a
deep-dyed p~artizan such Executive may be,
than to be at the mercy of one elected by a
party, to whose ~tyrannic exactions he will in
evitsbly bend, however just, independent and
virtGuus he may think himself.

Importance Of Hon.-Railways, says a Liver
pool circular of the metal dealers have become
a necessity of the age, and increase of wealth
led at once to their rapid extension. American
enterprise has been foremost in seeking to
meet this claim, and Canada. Russia, Sweden.
Spain, Egypt and India, have also sought to
extend or introduce the iron road. The adap-
liability of iron for marine purposes has been
proved to demonstration its superiority for the
construction of sailing vessels is now acknowl.
edged, whilst for steamers especially propelled
by screw) its use as substitute for wood is
becoming Almost universal. The consumption
of iron in this comparatively new department
is immense, and it has been impossible to keep
pace with the demand. At present upwards Of
fifty iron vessels are constructing on the CLYDE
alone, whilst the builders on the Mersev.
Thames, Tyne and Ware are so full of work as
to be unable to take fresh contracts.

The Norwak Catastrophe.-In orr narrative
given yesterday ofthe further developments of
this calamiry, we mentioned that two hundred
and thirteen persons had been accounted for,
and that two hundred and sixteen was the re-
puted number on board the train. We also
gave the name of Miss Mitchell, of Hartford,
as among the list. We are gratifed to be able.
on sufficient authority, to announce that Miss
Mitchell was saved, and also TO complete the
the list of those previously accounted for, so as
to place it beyond doubt that the bodies of all
the dead have been recovered. -Four persons
Of the narne of Mitehell-two belonging to
Hartford and two to, Philadelphia-left the
Merchants Hotel, in this city, and went forward
by the eight o'clock Boston train on Friday
morning. Withthe exception of Miss Mitchell,
of Hartford whose name was recorded among
the dead, but WHO'S alive, their names do not
appear in any ofthe lists. BY transferring her
name to the list of saved, and adding the other
three, who were also saved, the number is made
completely. Y. Com. ADJ.
