HUMBUG,

The local reports of our New Orleans
papers have been good deal taken up
lately with the details of the presentation
of bound copy of our city ordinances by
Mayor Conway to the library at Madrid.
correspondence between the Mayor and
Commander of Spanish steam corvette
Charruca has been paraded with great
flourish Of trumpets. What amount of hos
pitality may or may not have been dispensed
blythe Mayor, OF by the city, or the naval
commander, we do not know. The oeca-
sion has been truly momentous. 1t only
has its parallel in the letter of Secretary
Bovee to the Massachusetts, clergyman who
was spreading himself with q written
volume of the State legislative journal in
French. The one book is worth about as
much as the other. An old copy of Con-
troller's report ought to have been thrown
In, such as poor Bill Beecher used, at mo-
merts Of leisure, to sing to opera tunes at
the City Hall. to the great delight Of by
standers. Ii sar.st.a1s {fsai,r,,i ~ ID.
II also reminds one Of the famous hos
pitality of the City Council to the French
men-Ot-war in our harbor in 1862. Farra.
CUTS fleet was laying in quiet possession Of
the river and General Butler held the city
In occupation, neither Of which events
ELECTED any symptoms Of hospitality on the
part Of the Council. But no sooner did the
French vessels arrive than Alderman Stith
offered series Of resolutions, which
were unanimously passed. recalling to
mind our ancient love to France and the
tender pride which the recollection OF our
once colonial relation was calculated to
elicit, and offering them welcome and the
freedom of the city. Whereupon, the cruel
Butler, the beast, the man Of the spoons,
snubbed the Council and said that being in
possession, he would dispense the hospi-
talities of New Orleans himself.
Now that Mayor Conway has sent the
ordinances to Spain and Gotthiel took the
photographs Of Lilienthal to France, and
sent back from the Emperor the bound
volume Of his @LIEe of Cesar" may we not
hope that our relations with cur two
national "parients," of which we we're once
colonies, are again on a tender and lovely
footing.

WANTS OF TEE WORKIEa PEOpLE,

Cheap living in New Orleans is the great
disideratum Of the laboring men, the
