out Jim Mann, from way down in Maine, .
who tried hard TO make speech, but most
signally failed. A.-~
The next gentleman cheered was Colonel
Smallwood, our new Postndster.n Colonel
smallwood was prompt in making his ap-
pearance, and with hat in hand, spoke
about one hour, in spite of the impotence
of the crowd and most drenehing rain.
He was loud on our constitutional rights, .
which, he said, we're ''rudely and ruthlessly
torn from US by rascalism.p He gave the
astounding information that Colonel Mann's
influence in Congress killed the bill to allow
arms to the reconstructed States. When
Mr. Smallwood finished his speech, which
was without arrangement, point, Or sense,
there were but few persons left on the
street. On the whole, the performances of
these Democratic carpet baggers and their
Louisiana dupes were quite funny. We
hope they may be repeated.

in this country perhaps are Fountains of
drinking water so necessary as in New Or
leans, and there is no city in North America
where liquids are INDUCED in SO extensively
as among US. People during these swelter-
ing days must Of necessity imbibe ire
quently, and as pure water can not easily
and readily be obtained by the masses resort
must be had to soda fountains or barrooms,
and of course there is an expense, in many in.
stances severely felt, but which could be cas-
lily avoided by the city expanding about three
thousand dollars, and perhaps not that
sum, in freely furnishing at eertain distances
fountains and cups after the fashion of Lon
don, o few particulars of which we give:
The association which has been establish.
ed in London for the purpose Of gratuitous
ly supplying water both to man and ami
mails, reports that it has lii fountains and
90 troughs under its care and supervision,
and that although they are spread over an
area of something like 100 square miles, and
exposed TO all the injury which thOughtless
mischief, willfal malice, and unavoidable
accident could intiict upon them, yet SO eff.
GENTLY has the supervision been carried out
that there is not a single one out of repair.
The average cost and supply of each foun.
tain and trough is about 500 year. That the
benevolent objects Of the society are appre-
ciated by the public is proved by the fact
that at an isolated fountain in London the
numbers who drank were 1000 in five hours
At the fountain in Bishopsgate nearly 1000
persons were known to drink in o single
day and at the Royal Exchange, with three
jets, more than 5000.
Now that thecity is owner and controller
ofthe Waterworks, we propose to those in
authority that they immortalize themselves
by at once proceeding to pursue our project
and completing it without delay. To ae-
complish this work very little time and
money need be expended. Indeed, simple
tsbe or length of gas pipe connected with
every water plug would serve noble pur-
pose. It is useless to urge and e-lbellish
why these things shonld be done. for the
matter is charitable and good Oh its face.
Columns might easily be written in advo-
cscy, but not a single line can be printed
in argument against.
That this can be done within few weeks
is undeniable, and if those now in authority
fail to make a public monument to them
selves and an everlasting benefit to all, let
them take up our proposal
To THE CRIMINAL COURT. The following
cases were sent down to the Criminal Court
for trial BY Recorder Becker:
Nelson Jordan was examined on q charge
of having stabbed John Williams in the
back with shoemaker's knife. The parties
all live near the corner of Lafayette and
Dyyades streets.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

NEw ORLEANS, La, August is, 1868.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN,:
Last evening the colored Democracy of the
Second Ward met in convention at the Lou
isiana Hotel. About half-past seven o'clock
the procession came up Poeyfarre street
headed by a martial band composed of three
colored aud one poor white man, and num-
bering, all told, five. Entering the hall a
bottle OF Hred-eye" was produced and the
members were Seymour and Blair all over
in few moments. So much so, in fact, that
considerable time elapsed ere the meeting
opened. II was addressed by "the more
intelligent class of colored people," and all
sscuttingn remarks were applauded. The
common substance of all the orators was to
prove their duty TO the Democratic party.
Some 100 white brethren were present and
welcomed to vacant seats by shake of the
hand. While in the crowd in front of the
hall we, accidentally of course, overheard
the following conversation:
Rebel No. This is id nice; as good
thing as the Radicals want, these niggers
are making votes for them every day.
Rebel No. 2-"That's so, We can not trust
them an inch. But In order TO secure their
votes and make sure thing of it, we will
have TO court them till after election; then
How do the colored people like this kind
of friendship, and will they let such political
ltricksters dictate to them which way to
vote. ! say not
| Yours, etc. SIPES.
A TRIBUTE TO DEPARTED WoRTH.-At a
recent meeting of the Third Ward Langston
Republican Club, series of resolutions
were passed in relation to the decease of a
most esteemed member, 0Ir. William G.
Moore, who died lately at Fort Adams,
Mississippi. The resolutions in substance
were as follows:
WHEREAS, -Onr respected and beloved
brother, William G. Moore, departed this
| life while at a distance from his many and
attached friends and political brethren, who
were thus debaired irom the privilege Of
soothing his last hours, and by friendly
attentions palliating the sorrow of his
family;
Resolued, That our grief for his untimelJ
death is the more poignant from the cir
cumstance that we were prevented from
being with him in his last moments. Tha
although no monumental stone may bI
reared 10 record his virtues, yet In The
