The New Orleans Price Carrepf says:
There Is an undisguised feeling Of apprehension per
vading the community a to the course that may be
taken by our Legislature. All feel that the fortunes OF
the people Of the State for veal or woe, in respect to
financial affairs for many years to come. depend upon the
action Of that body, and it is earnestly hoped. therefore. !
that great caution viii be used as 70 the measures that /
may nnhiy De auoptel ~ d the universal opinion
among intelligent men as far as we can learn, that the |
passing Of such q bill by the Legislature as the one pre-
scented to them under the title Of " An Act for the Relief
Of the C0ttOr Plantess Of the State Of Louisiana viii, /
in the end, be productive Of great and irTepaFsble evils,
not only 10 one, but to every departments Il industry
throughout the State, and our own experience in early
manhood OF the blasting effects OF State loan Offices, i
canses "a 20 look upon the passage Of such q bin "a the
one referred 70, with dismay. The Legislature has taken
a recess until the 9th Of January, and it iswel, probably, /
that it is 50, as the members viii thereby be afforded "a
little more time for cool reflection and an opportunity /
also Of consulting with their constituents and learning
their views on this mOst important matter.
The New Orleans Crescent has the following in Fri
days issue:
We learn that Gen. Lowell has issued orders to Mckee |
vers Express, Postmaster Riddeli and Others, that all let l
tiers intended for foreign countries-EurOpe and Cube, as /
well AS the Old defunct United States-must be submitted
TO inspection bya committee. This rule has heretofore |
only applied TO correspondence with the United States. |
II is now deemed proper to extend the rule and have II
apply to European correspondence.
