WHAT DOES IT MEAN?-We find the following in
the New Orleans Times of the 24th, and, must ad-
NIT, we do not exactly understand what it means.
Something out, sure; but we not posted:
The city is rife with rumors, some of which, we are
convinced are well founded. 1t is said that governor
Wells has set himself up as dictator; that, not con-
tent with throwing every obstacle IN the way OF those
recently elected to Office he asserts that general Candy
has usurped powers that be modesty claims come en-
tirey within his province, and, if we are rightly
informed is acting in the most stubborn and ndiscreet
manner possible We viii tell the governor something
which perhaps if he heeds, may be of advantage to
him. ii is this He does not stand SO well in Wash
ington he supposes and the course he is pursuing
is not calculated in the least to advantage him there
or here With the great mass of the people OF this
city and State, we honestly and kindly tell him, no
man, save one, has ever, in short space become 50
greatly unpopular as he There is vet time to retrace
his steps He must not set himself up in opposition
to the public If he does, the people will forsake
him as they are fast doing.
We feel that we have right to speak thus plainly
to our chief magistrate. We supported him for the
position he holds and counseled the people to do a:
we did vote for him. lie has disappointed us. And
Il is our duty now to tell him Of it, and respectfully
ber that he will cast aside all prejudice all party ran
cor and look only to the welfare Of the people, whose
/ servant he is.
There is one very grave rumor abroad 1t Is sale
coroner Yeiser when asked why he did not pursue
the investigation into the killing Of citizen, stated
that he was interdcted by high authority-that au
thority is said to have been the governors. We d.
not pretend to youch for this but is made in such
shape that the governor owes it to himself and th
public to officially contradict it, We sincerely hopt
he can and will
Personally, We have nothing but respect for th
governor Of his official course we have right t
speak as we do without interest in any quarter, wit
the independence which has ever and will eve
characterize US.

PHOTOGRAPHY ON WArCHEs.-Here is hint to those
who wish to have their lkenesses taken on watches
which is from the Philadelphia Gazette:
We were yesterday shown handsome gold watch
the property of Mr.. L. S. Cooper, upon the porcelain
dial of which was photographed ndeliby the minia-
ture of his father the founder of the Cooper shop re-
freshment saloon. The art of photographing upon
porcelain is now perfected. We see it done upon
lamp shades and upon cups and vases. The extending
of it to watch dals is something new. The watch in
question: so far as the first of the kind is not likely
to remain So and watch dias henceforth will contain
family portraits and to certain extent do duty as
portable albums. The expense of securing them is
not much. Take your watch to jeweler, get the
dial removed, and the photographer will do the rest
The pictures thus taken perfect and will endure,
whether covered or not, until broken.
