The Paris Illustration publishes a Dor
trait, or portraits, of the Samese twins,
who are about to intrust themselves to
the celebrated surgeon, NJ. Nelaton, with
a view to be separated. The twins are
simply and quietly dressed in costumes Of
identical pattern and eolor-dark morning
coat. dark trousers, plaid waistcoat, IL
appears from a memoir which accompa-
MES the drawing, that the two brothers
one of whom is named Chang, the other
Eng, are ilfty-four years old, and that they
were only four when they were taken
from their native land and brought to
Europe, whence, after they had been exhib
tied for some years with great advantage tC
themselves and others), they proceeded tc
the United States. Here, after certain
time, they bought land, made the acquaint-
ance Of 'two charming slsters,' who con.
sented to marry them, settled on theiI
estate, begot nine children each, and lived
t0gBu o. in great happiness until the Ameri.
can evil war broke out. Then Chang
declared himself Unionist, Eng a Seces-
sonist, and the quarrels between them be-
came so violent that the twins were at one
time on the point Of fighting a duel. So,
at least, says the author Of the article In
the Illustration, who writes with the air OF
a man enjoying special sources Of iniorma-
g0ns
New Orleans Republican., 1868-11-12

The opposing press, with bitterness inten-
sifed probably by fear, which-believed
or not-they expressed, denounced the
author, and strained heavily to impress
upon the public mind the sure imminence
of conaagration and rapine, as the ineVita-
bic consequence of these remarks.
Men and women of this city, merchants,
planters or business men, the destruction of
your property and material prosperity was
by false prophets then foretold to you.
No such event has happened or was proba-
BILE, but there is kindling in your midst a
frebrand whose effects, unstayed, shall
bring heavier ruin on your happiness
and prosperity and establish blight of de-
ISOLATION and decay more consuming and
permanent in its effects than the quick pro-
! cess Of the flames.
The Republican party has just achieved
widespread and overwhelming triumph,
Upon their banner is inscribed "peace,'
and amid the few utterances of their silent,
strong leader elect, has been heard his de-
sire for peace. They extend the olive
branch to their late opponents. Will the
people receive it? Can this land have
peace? The heat of partisan Juror and the
fever of suspense is cooling in the minds of
men whose occupation is the deepning OF
trade channels, its onward propulsion and
the increase of commercial and agricultural
prosperity. They can, with clear vision,
foresee the vast benefits deriyable from a
state Of peace and order.
A portion OF the press, with truest wis
dom and utilization in feeling with the great
mass Of earnest working, responsible bust
ness men, reflect the ideas Of such. In
contrast with this portion stands class of
writers whose pens still dip with etfusiCe
gall, long fed on poisons they must still
feed on and who relax no effort to excite
anew the subsiding excitement and bitter
ness Of feeling. This is the frebrand which
should be dreaded and summed. The
actual conhagration threatened in a pas
sionate moment might lay low blocks, per-
haps whole squares of brick and stone; but
the dread influence of these leaders, insati-
ate of anarchy and rebellion, would drag
on community to destruction where
ruin and distress would be incalculable in
extent or duration.
The Republican party is able to grant, |
is disposed to show, clemeney and consd-
Grafton 10 a people who can appreciate the
gift. But as one loud-voiced brawl can
destroy the quieIude of a neighborhood, so
can one yiolent-minded, vicious, self-styled
chronicler of public opinion infict upon a
community its own well-deserved evil rep
ltatiOn.

The comedy of "1he Poor Gentleman
at the St. Charles last evening developed
the talent of the whole company, aud
Mark Smith, that general favorite of our
theatre goers,, fully realized the expecta.
tions of the audience. This evening Sheri
dams comedy of 1.-THE Rivals will be re-
peated, in which Mark Smith appears as
Sir Anthony absolute. Ben DeBar's Bob
AcreS is sufficiently amusing to cure even
the worst fit of the blues. Charles Pore
as Captain Absolute sustalns that character
admirably. "The Rivals" never has been
put on the stage here with a more ap-
propriate cast, and those who do not see it
this evening will miss a good thing. The
entertainments conclude with the pretty
House Breaker Monday evening benefit
of Mark Smith.

The Queen Of the Air. as the youthful
and beautiful AIillie Turnour is quite ap-
propriately termed, astonished large au-
dience last evening by her perilous per-
formances on the swinging bar. From the
dizzy hights, while standing swinging and
balancing herself on the single bar, she
looks smiling and unconcerned. She is
certainly remarkable in her peculiar per-
formances, and so self-possessed that one
can look at her daring feats without the
slightest apprehension of danger to the
fair performer. Jennie Engel in soEg this
evening. The new Spanish ballet diver
iissement gives to Miss Evers the pre-
eminence to which she is entitled as beau
tiful and graceful woman. "On the Beach
at Biloxi" is an amusing local farce.

delineators this evening. Matinee at twelve
o'clock Saturday.
The Circus and MenngerIe.
The charming Lucille Watson, the bare
back equestrienne, rides as no woman ever
rode before in this city. The youthful
member of the Smith! family is a celebrity
as an eight year old circus rider. The
Brothers Miaco perform in gymnastics ex
celently. The trick horse is worth seeing,
tor its intelligence shows that horse can
be educated to do almost everything but
talk. The animals of the menagerie are of
the most ferocious nature, yet such is the
of man over the most savage
beast, that Herr Lengel and Mile. Eugenia
enter the dens of lions and tigers and exer-
else perfect control over them. Two per-
formances day, at twelve NJ. and seven P.

curiosity and admiration both of youth and

THE CURAN AFFAIR

Our people are very much interested in
what is transpiring upon the island OF
Cuba. The secret of that interest we fear,
is mean covetousness which would steal
the rich prize, if possible. For twenty-five
years there has been party in this country
ready to resort to force to obtain a foot
hold. in that province of Spain. The
movement was first talked of in aid of the
slave party of the Southern States. The
spirit of flibustering has not yet died out
Whatever may be the object Of the insur-
gents now attempting to rise it is clear to
US that those who talk about sailing from
our shores to their assistance have no sym
pathy with them or their cause. We doubt
very much whether the movement upon the
island will accomplish anything. Indeed,
its leaders do not seem to know what they
are aiming at.
The provisional government in Spain
has taken measures to guarantee to the Gu
bans every right accorded to the Spaniard
at home. This will disarm thousands of
the insurgents and ally them with the new
Captain General who represents the liberal
home government.
All this talk, then, about the desire of
this people to help the revolutionists in
Cuba is simply cover to hide disposi-
ton, or perhaps an intention to overrun
the island.
We hope that our government will be
prepared to nip in the bud any move
ment of the kind. We can not afford
as great nation to permit any
such an outrage against the laws of
nations. We are at peace with Spain.
We are in full sympathy with the present
Liberal Government, Let us give no
cause for war or even for bitterness of feel
ing.
If in the future the Cubans should desire
annexation to the United States, and Spain
should consent to dispose of the island,
then we shall gladly welcome that people
to the Union.

Peter Hackett, one of the veteran COM
positors of the New York Tribune, who died
last month, almost set Horace Greeley
crazy by making the old gentleman's "Wii-
liam H. Seward read Richard H." and
by changing the quotation otis true, tits
pity; and pity It's, It's true" into it's two,
tits so, and tits 52,' two blunders which
any man might make who was called upon
to "set up" Horace Greeley's manuscript.
On this occasion, after Mr.. Greeley's anger
had nearly subsidized, he sent for Peter, and
berated him soundly for his stupidity.
Cant you read that copy? ?" said Horace
"Sure an l can't" said Peter. "Then, y
said Horace, "you ought to go to school q
month longer" "Faix, Horace, it wouldn't
do you bit O. harm to take a lesson OF
two in pinmanship yoursilf." answered
