REPoRToRIAL BREvIrIEs.- Through inadvert
ance the name of Mr.. John Hart was omitted in
our report of the proceedings Of the Third Ward
Democratic Club. on Friday evening, from the
list Of citizens elected as the executive committee
of the club.
We are officially informed that the cars win
commence running on the first section of the
Canal and Claiborne streets railrcad-that Is, as
far as the Claiborne Market and out Common
street TO Rocheblave street-on Tuesday next.
Let 1t not be forgotten that the Rev. Father
Joseph NJ. Jacobs, q. IS. R.. an able and learned
theologisn and an agreeable lecturer, delivers in
course: in which he will argue the question, :" Is
The Bible the word of God" The proceeds of
the lecture will be devoted to the completion of
the fac school house being erected for the girls Of
the congregation Of the German Church Of st.
Mary, and we are all interested in the increase of
such schools, where white children are secured
from the system Of amalgamstion sought to be i'm
posed upon the people through the Dryades street
Constitution.
It will be seen by reference to the report Of
what transpred IN the First District Court yester-
day that the Grand Jury found true bill for
manslaughter against Mr.. Boudro, whose msfor-
tune it was to cause the death of q child few
days ago while firing at pigeons with Monte
Crisfo rife. without intending 70 prejudice the
case OF Mr.. Bondro, we must say that this step on
the part OF the Grand Jury is one that will meet
the appreciation OF the community, for 1t gives an
admoniiion, which has been much needed, that
parties committing homicides through careless
ness or indifference to possible consequences, in
handling deadly weapons, will be held accounts
bic TO the law. The Grand Inquest, IL will be
perceived. also presented indictments for capital
ofenses against Fabre. who stands charged with
being the perpetrator of the outrage upon the
kuersteiner family, on the GENTLY Road at the
Fair Grounds. a1
The late Mr. John Gauche died intestate, and the
only proceeding in relation to his succession yet,
has been the confirmation, by the Second Disric {
Court, OF Mrs. Gauche, his widow, as natural
tutrix of the minor children. He had twelve
children all of whom are living, to share his large
estate, except one who was lost at sea on the
steamship Pisano. Ten Of them are minors.
II is generally accredited that the carpet-bsg-
gers have steamers engaged to ply between this
and the adjoining parishes the days OF the cleo
ton, TO transport negroes to and fro and do an
extensive pipe laying business II is the duty
Of the Democracy through their organizations to
endeavor to ascertain If s1ch scheme is on foot,
tanned that it is doubtless General Buchanan, who
is not disposed TO countenance fraud on any side,
will take steps to mar the plot. ll1
R. N. Cockln was arrested for running over a
child en- New Levee street, between Jackson
and Josephine streets yesterday. The child was
not seriously injured, but q colored man was
thrown of the wagon, and badly hurt, at the same
time. Et- mt,
The steamer Josephine, which has arrived here
after her perlls among the Padre Island breakers,
is now in Valette dry dock, at Algiers. where
citizens are invited to call and see how much a
stoutly built ship can Withstand. ~.
