any motion through the sea- which latter lay
as a glaring mirror in all its brightness and
placidity, extended as far as the horizon
could reach. Here we began to feel the air of
the new world. 1t was nothing like the
northern part of the hemisphere which we had
left behind. And when we saw from on deck
the sporting of the great sea monsters, the
putting whales and other aquatic creations, we
could not help thinking on the mighty powers
that had formed such immensities of reser-
voirs for these multitudes of beings. We have
lately heard of the newly discovered sea mon
sters, the Krakens or great Polyp Spider, and
whose members or tentacles are like ships
cables by which they may drag down even
three mast vessels to the bottom of the sea !;
and although we may claim to doubt some of
these descriptions, yet can we have no hesita-
ton in believing that sea serpents or sea
dragons may well have existed in former
times. For since we find skeletons of Masto-
dons upon terra firm that now no longer are
to be met with, just so the ocean may have
contained enormous creatures that now have
become extinct. Such living examples are
made to combat the incredulity of people that
would fain suppose nature to have lost its
power.

lore About the Old Ursullne Convent.


Ed CreScent-In yours of the I'd instant find
an article headed The Old Ursuline Convent"
in which it was stated, cit was here that for
number of years, until 1884, the legislature Cd the
State held its sittings; and it was built by the
French government in 1888"
The writer of this having been member OF the
legislature when its sittngs were held in the old
convent, it may be acceptable to some OF your
readers to know the reasons, which beg leave to
give, VIZ: In the winter of 1928, the old Govern
ment House. at the corner of Old Leyee and Tou-
louise streets, was the State House, occupied by
the governors office and legislature. During the
session that winter it was burned, by taking fire
from an adjoining building, occupied as store
1t was thought at the time that the owner Of the
goods had set the fire to obtain the insurance. l
was among the first that discovered the fire, and
assisted in saving the archives and public records
both in the old Government House and a building
in the yard, occupied by the secretary of state.
Some short time previous the Ursuine nuns had
removed to their new building below the city, and
the old convent was found to be the most appro-
pirate building then in New Orleans to accommo-
date the legislature, and it was obtained from the
bishop of the diocese for that purpose and the
lSgiSldluI6 uelu it6 sIltlubS lueTSlu uuIluB tue
balance of the session of 1928 and the session of
1929. The seat of government was removed to
Donadsonvile and buildings directed by law to be
erected there, to accommodate the legislature and
public Offices, and the session of the winter OF
1880 was held there; but the buildings were found
to be so badly constructed that they became dan
gerous, and the seat Of government was removed
back to New Orleans, and the legislature again
occupied the old convent until the Charity Hos
pital was removed to its present location. When
the old buildings on the square, bounded by
Canal, Baronne, Common and Dryades streets
were fitted up, helegisature held sessions therein
and the public offices were kept there until the re
moval to Baton Rouge.
In 1928, when the Legislature occupied the " Ole
Ursuline Convent" it was currently reported tina
the buildings were then just one century old
and, consequently, they must have been erected

THE AppoRrroNMENr.

We have already shown that, under the true
theory of our government, it makes no posi-
BILE difference to one State or section what
may belthe extent of the voting constituency
of another State or section The effort Of
the radicals to persuade the. Northern people
that they suffer injustice by the limitation Of
the right Of suffrage to the white people, in
the South, is founded on transparent fall
lacy, and upon doctrine which would, when
carried to its logical consequences entirely
subvert the independence of the States and
reduce them to complete subseryiency to the
viii Of a numerical sectional majority acting
through a centralized despotism at Wash
ington.5
The radical idea that restriction of the suf-
nage to white people in the South is unjust
towards the North, involves the fundamental
idea that there is some natural and inalienable
right on which the claim to suffrage is based.
Indeed some Of the radical leaders, and many
Of the radical journals, insist that snttrageis
q natural right. Even admitting this propo+
sition we might dispute the right Of one set
of States to impose the enforcement of natu-
raj rights on another set of States; believing
Is We do, not only that such compulsory as
serhon Of abstract political doctrines is be-
You'd the province OF the federal government,
and that the social forces. Of the States amply
suffice for the solution Of ali the social and
political problems which may arise within
their respective communities. But, if suf-
frage is natural right the radicals are illogi-
cal and self-eontradictory in themselves inn
posing restrictions md limits upon it, There
is not Northern State not the most radical
Of the whole Of them that does not, in its
: Constitution, assign certain qualifications to
z the eleetor which qualifications are restric-
tons and limitations as to all Che rest Of the
community II many u them, in fact in
most Of them, the right of voting rests
on precisely the same basis Of qualifioa-
tion as in the Southern States. In al
most all Of them the electoral privilege
| IS granted only to 4 white male citizens 81

fact, for the Judging of his cause. No man can
say that the President has aught to do with the
case. As the matter stands now, Mr.. Johnson
places himself in false position; as affairs would
stand after the release, Caesar would have the
things that belong unto Caesar. The form in which
this grand act of Justice should come, is the next
and the final consideration. 1t should not bear any
appearance of sympathy towards an individual it
should be tribute to justice pure and simple 10
effect these ends, it should come in broad
and comprehensive form. A general amnesty
would alone fulfill these requisites. 1t would be
the legitimate consumation of a course marked by
the highest attributes of justice and mercy. It
would be the browning stroke of the presidential
policy, and would send it down to posterity,
adorned with the brightes! of civic laures. Truly
here would mercy be twice blessed, for it would
bless the giver and the receiver. 1t would open
the eyes of the people more clearly to the policy of
Mr. johnson than any public measure he could de-
wise. Its practical advantages ia relieving a
weight bearing on the industry of the country, can
hardly be estimated.
This is the course now being urged On the Presi-
dent by his truest friends. A noble action some
times effects more than political foresight If the
expounders of public law dare longer to insult the
majesty of their trust, its guardian must step in
and see that justice be done, though the heavens
fall, "~

PAYING INyEsTMENT.-It appears, from the
report of the drawing of the Kentucky State Lot
terry, which we published last Friday morning,
that fourteen prizes were drawn by persons who
purchased their tickets from Mr.. Charles T. How
ard, the agent for this city These fourteen prizes
in the aggregate amount to large sum of money,
and consequently the city has been the gamer in
actual cash by the sale Of the tickets here. Now
this looks if lotteries were not such awful inst-
tutions after all. The Kentucky Lottery, on &C.
count of its being conducted on such liberal prin-
ciples-there being more prizes in it for the num-
Der of tickets sold than in any we ever heard Of
depends for its profits upon the extent of its BUSH
ness. Its managers do not want to " make it ALL
but are satisfied to make fair interest on the
capital invested and if there are large profits to
somebody, they prefer them to be scattered
throughout the country And, as the agent Of
this lottery for New Orleans pays large amount
into the State treasury annually, for the benefit Of
the Charity Hospital, for his license to sell the
tickets, we have been gamers by the operation in
more ways than one.

THE FALL IN THE Price OF CLorHGNG.-This has
been brought about mainly by the iberality of the
house of Garthwaite, Lewis 4 Stuart Nos. 81 an6
80 Camp street. AS they were disposed to work
on the rule of " live and let live,n their Gus,
toners were not impoverished to the verge O.
bankruptcy every time they bought a suit o
clothes from them and as this fact was noised
abroad, it had its effect upon the prices generally
We hope that this liberality will meet with its due
reward and that the house will soon see that they
will be the gamers in the long by selling good
clothing at living prices.

RAILRoAD.-We call the attention of our readers
to notice in another column, of the general
superintendent of the New Orleans, Jackson and
GreatNorthern Railroad Company, by which twill
be seen that very considerable reduction has
been made in the charges for freight on certain
articles enumerated.
The board of directors are entitled to the thanks
OF the pubic-for this timely change, as we UNDER
stand it has been done in view of the necessities
OF the country at large-but little corn, wheat,
ETC., having been planted, and the cotton crop
proving to be much shorter than anticipated.
The reduction has been made on corn, oats, hay,
pork, bacon, beef -four molasses, cotton, lumber,
ETC., ETC.; and a list of the special rates can be
obtained or application at the Office of the COM
pany, No. A Carondelet street.

The information which we volunteered"
for the benefit of the editor Of the Tribune
was not entirely gratuitous. MIR. Greeley at
a public meeting in New York, volunteered :"
the assertion that he could not, with safety
to himself make q political speech in the
South. He gave the case of New Orleans as
an illustration from which we presumed that
he had selected New Orleans as the focus of
all that kind Of sanguinary intolerance which
Mr.. Greeley's fertile fancy attributes to the
Southern people. Hence We mildly sug-
gested that if he was wrong in regard to New
Orleans, q torttori, on his own theories,
he was wrong in regard TO- the rest Of
the South, That he was wrong in re-
gard to New Orleans we offered to
demonstrate practically, by guaranteeing
to Mr.. Greeley, perfect safety, and respect
full hearing whenever he might desire to ad-
dress our citizens, Nor did that guarantee
rest on any trust in the paeifying qualities Of
Seen, Sheridan's grape" much as the
Northern mind may be addicted to such com
pulsory process but solely on The peaceful
and law abiding spirit Of our people, and their
love of public liberty. The Tribune knows
well that Dostie et al. did not lose their lives
in any such cause, but in riot provoked BY
an attemptto subvert the State government.
ltDostie, Hiestand and others hadlall, previous

would have rendered the utterers indictable
for conduct tending to provoke breach q
the peace and yet nobody thought Of inter

SPLENDID JEwELRY-The many patrons of the
jewelry' establishment of Mr.. Zimmerman
Nos. "a and 96 Canal street, will doubt
less, be interested to learn that he has re-.
ceiyed several installments of his new stock, and
that they will now find in his store all that is
fashionable and beautiful nthe jewelry line. We
took peep in there day or two since, and such
was the wealth displayed to our dazzled and adj
miring gaze, that like snbad the Sailor in the
Valley of Diamonds, we were speeches. and be-
widered. Mr., Zimmerman sells both at whole,
sale and retail.

DIRECT TRADE WITH EuRopE,-It would be we'll
if our merchants would keep the fact constantly
before them that they can buy almost every des.
cripton of foreign goods as cheaply from Messrss
?. Mares u Co., No. ~ Royal street, as in New
York. This house is determined to build up the
direct trade between New Orleans and the diff.
ferent ports of Europe, and will not be ndersold
by any Northern importer. The stock of goods
which they now have to splendidly selected
for the Southern trade; is rich, varied, and of the
latest styles. No merchant visiting the city to
buy goods, no miliner or any other dealer, should
miss looking at it, at least before they make their
purchases
