Louisiana has gone for Seymour and Blair
by probably $4,000 majority. In some places
the Radicals (negroes) voted-that is to say,
where they could have everything their own
way in others they refused to vote, but ex-
pect to be counted just as if they had gone
through the little formality of depositing
their ballots in the boxes 1t is new and
ingenious plan for carrying an election, but it
viii not win. Radicalism, carpet-baggery
and ''trooly loil' scalawaggery have received
their quietus in Louisiana.

! WHARFAGE.-In his address delivered on
Monday evening before the Chamber of Com
merce, Col. Burwel called attention to the
very significant fact that first class steam
boat plying between this port and St Louis
must pay over $500 for wharfage dues alone,
in one round trip. Now this is state of
affairs that should not last. High wharfage
dues are q certain means of reducing the num-
Der of boats landing at any place, and such
reduction must correspondingly lessen the
revenue of that place whereas, a cheapening
of those rates will increase the tonnage of any
port, and thus, in the end, raise its revenues
This short-sighted policy prevails in all the
towns, except Memphis, from here to st.
Louis and did in Memphis, until perceiving
its disastrous effect upon her commerce, the
council of that city put down the rates, when
boats multiplied at once.
(. We earnestly commend this subject to the
attention Of those men of our city in whose
hands it lies. 1t is one of those drawbacks to
trade, 30 many of which now load New Or
leans. The city is now about to inaugurate
an entirely new branch of commensurate
grain trade. Let us welcome it by putting
down our wharfage dues Immediately. The
merchants have all reduced their charges, and
it is but right that the city should also extend
q welcome hand to these men of the West,
who are now coming to our borders with
their barges laden with corn and wheat. Such
iberality will amply repay ITSELF We trust
these considerations will be carefully weighed
by the merchants and property holders of
New Orleans

I When do the Radicals expect to commence

the city is more like dolls model than hsbta-

TWO DWELLINGS AND CABINET SHOP BURNT.

On Tuesday morning last, between l and 2 O.
clock as we were about working offthe astsheets
of our issue for that morning. the startling alarm
of fire was heard, when it was discovered that
the dwelling and cabinet shop of Mr.. Robert
Johnson were wrapped in consuming flames
From these buildings the fire communics ted with
the dwelling of Mr.. P. Byron Hoge, the next
house on the East, and it, too, was Destroyed
The next dwelling house, in the same direction,
Mr. d. A. Kayser's, was in imminent danger OF
suffering the same fate, and was only saved by
the active and energetic exertions of the Fire
Company, assisted by other citizens. These hou-
ses were situated on Main street, on Gospel Hill.
Mr. johnson had the sad misfortune to lose,
not only his dwelling and shop, but most of his
furniture. Mr. Hoge saved the greater part of his
furniture. Mr.. Johnson's loss, we suppose,
amounts to about So, 0O0 and Mr.. Hoge's to about
$4,000 The property of neither was insured
The unfortunate sufferers, by this fire. have the
sincere sympathies of this whole community. AS
Mr.. johnson is an old man and lost nearly all he
possessed, the citizens of this place Immediately
subscribed sums of money in proportion to their
respective abilities to enable him to rebuild his
house. To be burnt out of house and home is a
sad calamity-lnore particularly at this rigorous
season of the year.
The losses sustained by these unfortunate citi-
zeEs speak trumpet-tongued- calling upon prop
erty-holders to have their property insured
Will they be wise and heed the admontion
