DEATH OF THE FOUNDER OF THE Or
DER OF THE SAcRE CGuR.-The Paris
correspondent of the London Times,
in bis letter of June I'd, writes:
- The death is announced of Mime do
Barrat, who founded the congregation
Of the SacrG Occur, and has since di-
rected it. She was person remarka-
Bile for her charity, her powerful intel
lect, and her goodness Of heart, and
had attained the s5th year OF her age.
It was at Amiens, sixty live years
since, that she laid the foundation of
the work which she directed with so
much skill to the end of her life.-
Nine de Barrat founded more than
one hundred branches of the Sacre
Cnur, in one of which the Empress
Eugene was educated. The present
Emperor, whose family gave several
nuns to the order ratified the approba-
ton formerly given to the congrega-
ton by Napoleon I. On Monday the
remains of Mime de Barrat were re-
moved from the head establishment on
the Boulevard des Invalides, where
she died, to the house at Gonhans,
where she was inferred.

of armed insurgents; and
Whereas, The desire has been
shown in my proclamation of goth of

agents or captured and surrendered
to the forces of the United States,
and to transportation thereto or
therein, on private account, of arms,
ammunition, all articles from which
ammunition is made, gray uniforms
and gray cloth, are removed. I do
hereby direct that they be forthwith
removed, and also that the commerce
of such States and parts Of States

vision of regularly appointed officers
of customs, who shall receive any
captured or abandoned property that
may be turned over to them, under
law, by military or naval forces of
the United States, and dispose of the
same in accordance with instructions
upon the subject issued by the Sec
rotary of the Treasury.
In testimony whereof I have here
unto set my hand and caused the

EXAMINING THE MAcHrNE.-An Al

EXAMINING THE MACHINE. An AL
bany correspondent of the Buffalo Cou-
rier, relates very amusing anecdote
of P. NJ. G. illustrative of the cir
cumlocutory habits ofthe august func-
tionary. A Congressman had called
upon the P. NJ. G. on business, when
the following scene ensued:
Congressman, advancing TO the
DESK Sol. Townsend, | have called
to see you upon matter Of business
Col. Townsend, without taking bis
eyes from the paper before him. y
"All right, sir; | will be at leisure in a
few moments"
An interval Of ten or fifteen minutes
elapses when Congressman again
makes the same assertion and receives
the same identica! reply. Congress
man begins to grow somewhat red il
the face, but preserves silence for an
other quarter Of an hour. He then
renews his assertion to Col. Townsend,
and the Colonel replies as before
Congressman takes off his overcoat,
betrays symptoms of wrath and casts
his eyes around the room as if be were
looking for file to place between his
teeth, but remains quiet for ten. IF
teen, twenty minutes longer. He then
ventures to remark to Colonel Towns
end that he Congressman has called
to see him upon a matter Of business;
to which the Colonel replies that it is
ali right and that be will be at leisure
10 few minutes.
That last straw broke the camels
back. Up rose the Congressman,
seized the chair in which he had been
sitting, planted 1T directly beside that
occupied by Col. Townsend, and af-
ter taking a deliberate and minute sur
vey of that functionary, addressed his
comrade with
George, did you ever examine
this maehine?"
"What machinel" says George.
"Why," replied the Congressman
"this id red tape machine. It's a
monstrous curiosity, I can tell you.
It's big thing. Come and look at
it,"
Townsend threw down his pen,
Strengthened himself back in his chair;
looked at his visitors for moment,
with a half stern and half puzzled ex.
preston, then suddenly broke into a
loud laugh, laid his hand upon the
Congressman's knee, and said:
swell, my friend, you understand
the machine, at any rate. Now, what
can l do for your"
Il is perhaps superhuous to say, in
the face Of all this, that the Congress
man promptly received the informa-
ton he sought, and that, 10 addition,
be was invited to cali and examine
"the machine" whenever, ghe might
feel inclined to do so.

tB- Mr.. A. BLUM, who has become one
OF the veteran merchants Of Baton Rouge,
and whose success as such has long since
become an established fact, has an adver-
tisement in our paper to-day calling public
attention to his varied stock of merehan-
disc. Mr.. B. is well worthy the increased
patronage he is realizing in business, and
his meritorious efforts to keep up with the
growing wants and demands of the coun-
try for supplies of dry goods, groceries,
&c, will no doubt be fully appreciated
and rewarded.

Redemption of Musilated Bank Notes
The following important circular has
been issued by the Treasury Department:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT

The following important circular has
been issued by the Treasury Department !:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, !
Office Of the Comptroller Of Currency,
Washington, D. c.
The following suggestions arc offered
relative to the redemption of mutilated
circulating notes of national banks, and
their return to this Office:
First-The notes are to be redeemed by
the banks by which they are respectively
issued, and should not be returned to this
Office in sums less than five hundred dol
lars, or in even multiples Of that amount
Second-Mntilated notes which have
been torn or defaced will lie received, when
presented by the bank that issued them,
provided oil the fragments are returned
and the engraving or signatures are not
so far obliterated that it cannot be deter
mined by what bank the notes were issued.
Third-Fragments should be redeemed
by banks in full when accompanied by an
affidavit stating the case and manner of
mutilation, and that the missing part of
the note is totally destroyed. The good
character of the sffiaut should also be fully
voucbed for by the officer before whom the
affidavit is taken.
These afidayits must be forwarded to
this office, with the fragments to which
they relate, in order that the banks pre-
senting such parts of notes may obtain
credit for the same.
Exceptional cases may occur in which
do Wit ha uLf IL
reasonable doubts can exist in regard to
the entire destruction or irreparable dam
age to missing portions of notes-as by
fire, acids, etc.-where evidence of identity
is ample by the signature of one or both
officers, or title or locality of the bank,
and the denomination of the note-where
the integrity of the bill-holder is unexcep-
tionable, and where no question could
arise in regard to fraudulent or improper
use of missing parts; in such instances
judicious discrimination must necessarily
be exercised by the officers of the banks.
1t is, however, advised that such notes
be received at their full face value, per-
feet note given therefor, record being
preserved Of the fact, to be sent to this of
fee with the mutilated note when returned
for redemption by the bank, in which case
full credit will be allowed in this depart
ment.
Fourth-When no satisfaction con be
obtained in regard to the missing parts,
and q possibility exists that any improper
use can be made of the same, it is recon-
mended that o proportionate value only be
allowed, estimating this by comparison of
the proper ton returned to the missing
parts A record should be kept Of the
amount allowed in all such instances, and
g voucher of the same rendered to this of
fee, when the mutilated note or notes shall
be returned for redemption

Comptroller of the Currency.

CULTIVATE GooD FEELING. 1t 10
the duty Of every good citizen TO
check in every possible way the ten
dency TO exasperate the bitter thoughts
which have grown out of the great
civil war ended. There are men
among us, deficient alike in sense aud
in principle, on both sides Of the
question which has been decided by
the stern arbitrament of arms, who
do and say many things in the most
reprehenslble manner, for the mere
purpose of injuring the feelings Of
others. We are glad to be able to
say that this disposition is by no
means often shown, that the great
majority of our people exhibit an evil
dent desire to bury the past as soon as
possible, and to work harmoniously
for the good of The State. These pro
motors of bad feeling, however, ought
to be put down in this community. -
They are disturbers of the peace, are
the enemies of good order, and do the
worst work for our people that a. 6end-
ish Ingenuity could devise.
We can take no steps backward.
Our duties are in the present and for
the future. The revival of discus
sions which should be forgotten, and
which ifrevived, will renew the spirit
which brought on the war, should be
Indignantly frowned on by every
friend of Louisiana. There is no
good to be attained by denouncing
Northern men, or attempting to dis
regard their rights in this community,
for we need their aid, their capital
and their enterprise. There will no
benefit result from condemning ut
terly the great mass of the Southern
people who have supported the Con-
federacy. These citizens are still to
be the main population Of these
States, and they should be encour-
aged in their return to loyalty. Re
bellion is done. With the General
Government, and not the private citi-
zen, rests the necessity for dealing
with the crime of treason. The Gov
eminent will be and has been mag
unanimous. The private citizen vio-
lates his obligations to patriotism if
he refuses to be so.-N. o. Times.

The FUTURE OF CHARLESTON
The following very hopeful express
sions regarding the future OF Charles
ton, S. c., are from the Courier Of
that city:
Let no one indulge the belief that
the citizens Of Charleston have not
the energy or enterprise to push for
ward and restore the city to its for
mer high station, both social and bu-
siness. They do have the energy
and enterprise to accomplish that
work, and, what is more, they mean
tomake immediate use of those quail
ties. Not man who has been in
this city for the past month and OBJ
served the rapid march of improve-
ment made within that time, will
honestly assert that the place is dead
and there is no use of attempting its
resuscitation. The place is neither
dead nor dying. We are all alive to
the fact that the work of restoring
the city to its former prosperous con-
dition must be achieved by those
who intend to make Charleston their
future home. The people in our
midst have already arrived at that
conclusion and are acting upon it.
Not day passes that half dozen
or more new stores are not opened to
the public. Two months ago per-
son in search of vacated building
suitable for business purposes could
easily find one; now, man consid-
ers himself fortunate if, after walking
over the city three Or four days, he
meets with an unoccupied store of
any kind in the vicinity of the active
portion of the place. King street
having been occupied by merchants
and traders, more attention is now
given to the building up of Meeting,
Hayne, Broad and other streets.
These were formerly the streets on
which the heavy wholesale trade
was located, and the disposition OF
our merchants is to place again these
streets in their proper order in bust
ness Importance.
The burnt district must and will
be rebuilt. 1t will be impossible for
Us to do heavy trade without build
ings in which to store the merchan-
disc. The opening up Of railroads
will give us an immense cotton bust
ness, and that, Of course, will make
affairs lively on the piers and in the
vicinity Of them. Next month we
will have arrivals from foreign ports.
When the season comes for doing
business, we viii find both men and
means to engage in all kinds Of en-
!. terprises. In the fall we will see
daily and weekly steamers plying to
and from domestic ports, railroad
communication open to all parts Of
the country, stage routes established,
the regular arrival and departure Of
the mail, the city crowded with a
returned population, and every one
doing well in business. That is the
near future of the city Of Charleston
