The movements of the great Mississippi appears

the remark can be sustained. a greaA deal has
been said of the water running over the lesee and

messed this before-several times in fact; partcn-

There were rumors and reports yesterday fully

upon what responsibility they were based. If any

TALK ON THE FLAGS

There was still further falling off in the crowds
and gatherings on the flags yesterday; yet they
were larger than necessary in the vicinity of Canal
street. On the grand rue Carondelet there were
very few gatherings the hitherto habitues of cot
tondom are taking things-the course of events
philosophically and calmly. In fact, they are as
cool and calm as a summers morn"--though the
several markets and restaurants are bare, very
bare, of choice steaks and sirloins, and good fat
capons are as scarce hens teeth. True, little
sumbo 6let can be provided now andlthen. Some
few crabs are available now and then, with fair
stock of rice in the market at about three times
the cost of il in Charleston and Savannah. A ma
jority of the restaurants open to their custom
ers, but it will cost about $40 for a hungry man to
obtain a fair dinner. We must class dinners now
a.days as corresponding to the cotton market
inferior, ordinary, good ordinary, low middlng,
middling, good mddling, middling fair, fair, good
fair, good and fine, with prices relatively. This is
about as near as we can talk, or come to the defu
ton of dinner at this moment in our good city
commencing with an inferior dinner at 81, and clos
ing at $40 for good and fine, wines not included. II
this talk should ever reach outside the city, oul
country friends will understand what it costs for
dinner in New Orleans; and we beg of them to
defer their annual visits to more propitious period

There does not appear to be any general dispo
stion on the part of merchants and traders to oper
their stores. True, some few open door or hal
door. This may be accounted for that many own
crs and proprietors have left the city, and theil
agents are only following out instructions. 1t mus
also be taken into consideration, that in years pas
the month of May has been noted for d genera
wind up of the seasons operations; though the
present season offers very little to wind up. A
large majority of the contents of the stores ant
warehouses of our wholesale dealers and jobber
have, under the blockade since the 25th of Ma,
last been deprived of any accession to their stocks
nor have they received any fresh supplies. Con
sequently, it is with them matter of little consd
Grafton to keep their doors open. Most Of the fam
lily groceries and provision dealers have come tt
the determination to keep open in order to NEE
the demands of their customers and the community
in general.
Communication with the country; that is, egres
and ingress to the city being under military regu
lations it cannot be expected there should be an.
hYness or sales of merchandise going on. 1t fol

FASHIONABLE R1r.--In December, 1916, a fun
gro44a rat was caught in a shop here, the neck of
which was found to be embellished with the very
unusual decoration of two finger rings mese were
of the description manufactured o. baubles ior
children, and were fancifully disposed round the
neck of the ANIMAL the stone Of one graclng the
breast while that of the other adorned the centre
of the neck behind. Copjecture is at loss to ac-
count for the crcumstances OF the rat becoming
so oddly equipped the rings were so small as to
he even less than half the circumference Of the
head and the SKIN around the neck, exposed to the
tight friction of the rings, had become completely
eecoriated beneath them the hair was entirely
worn off, and the flesh protruded in some parts
over the rings. This sufficiently indicates that the
noor animal must have become possessed of this
pece of troublesome inery when very young, and
leads to the conclusion Of the rings having been
stolen by the parent rat and carried to her nest,
where, by singular fatality, this one Of her pro-
geny might have put its head severaly through
both, and been afterwards unable to extricate
itself from either. 1t is well known that these
animals are extremely fond Of trinkets and in the
present case, several rings Of the description
had been at some distance of time, missed from
the shop where the rat was caught. 1t having beer
killed in taking, gentleman in town had it stuffed
which has been admirably performed by an in
genious mechanic in Large, of the name of Wilson
and it is now in the possession of the former.

MURDER IN Russ1A.-An extraordinary murder
was lately committed at Petersburg. The SER
want of family on going into the kitchen, found
basket containing an infant, together with a
letter and purse OF 200 roubles. The letter es-
capped her notice, and, tempted by the money, the
inhuman wretch resolved to destroy the child.
She threw it into the large stove used in that
country, where the poor innocent was speedily
consumed, the money secreted, and everything
likely to lead to suspicion put away, by the time
that the family, which had been abroad, returned
home. The master, however, humane and re-
spectacle man, by accident found the letter. which
informed him of the. deposit, and stated that he
should receive 200 roubes every quarter while the
infant, whom circumstances forced its parents to
conceal, lived under his charge. He called up the
servant, who at first denied all knowledge Of the
fact; but being closely questioned at last con-
fsssed her crime, to the enormity of which the
ashes of the stove bore horrible testimony. She
was committed to prison and paid hcr forfeited
life to the laws,

WANTED-A PRINTER" Wanted-a printer"
says a contemporary. Wanted-a mechanical Gu.
rosity, with brain and ingers-a thing that will
set so many type day-a machine that will think
and act, but still machine "a being who under
takes the most systematic and monotonous
drudgery, yet one the Ingenuity OF man has never
suppiaated mechanically that's a printer.
A printer-yet for all his sometimes disspated
and reckless habits-a worker at all times and
hours day and night; sitting up in close and un-
wholesome Office, when gay crowds are hurrying
to the theaters-later STILL when the street reveers
are gone and the city sleeps-in the fresh air of
tho morning-n the broad and gushing sunlight
some printing machine is at his case, with it's
eternal, unvarying click click!
: Click! click! the polished types fall into the
stick the mute integers of expression are mar
shaled into line, and march forth as immortal
print. Click and the latest intelligence becomes
old--the thought q principle-the simple idea
living sentiment. Click! click! from grave to
gay, item after item-a robbery, murder, a bit of
scandal, graceful and glowing thought--are in
turn closed by the mute and impressive fingers of
the machine and set adrist IN the sea of thought.
He must not think of the future, nor recall the
past-must not think of home, of kindred of wife
or of habe--hs work lies before him, and thought
is chained to his copy.
You know him by his works, who read the papers
and are quick at typographical errors-whose eye
may rest on these mute evidences of ceaseless
toll: correspondents editors and authors, who
scorn the simple medium of your fame, think not
that the printer is altogether machire-think not
he is Indifferent to the gem of which he is but the
setter-a subtitle ray may penetrate the recesses
of his bran Or the flowers he gathers may not
leave some of their fragrance upon his l-worn
fingers. But when you seek a friend, companion,
adViser-when you would elevate one who, for
sympathy, may represent either or both--when
you want Judges. Legislators, Governors and Pres.
