The PoIIcE.-Judge Cooley decided the
writ of quo loarranto, sued out by Diamond, the
appointee of the mayor to the Office of chief Of
police, in favor of the relator. Cain, who holds
his Office by the grace of the Metropolitan
Board, asked for suspensive appeal. This
Judge Cooley yesterday declined to grant,
stating, at the same time, that should the de-
PENDANT apply to the Supreme Court for a
mandamus to compel the granting of an ap-
peal, he would give his reasons for the refusal
in writing. Meantime, Mayor Conway's
course is simple. He will do what the law
authorizes and requires him to do-that is,
he will proceed at once to fill the six hundred
and odd vacancies that now, by virtue OF
Judge Cooley's decision, are vacant So
there is now prospect that the city of New
Orleans will again be policed by men who
are selected by the agents of the people of
New. Orleans, not by the appointees of a set
of self-constituted, intrusive individuals,
whose utter failure to control the city as soon
as an emergency arose, proved the ridiculous
ness of their assumptions. Here's a hearty
welcome to the new corners, and by no
means sad farewell to the out-goers.

As-supreme Court decisions On second page

The Board of Public Works yesterday
awarded the contract for the reconstruction of
Grand Leyee to Mr.. kennedy. This gentle
man Is a contractor OF mrge experience IN
leyee building. and we presume that he will
do this work thoroughly-at least we hope so.
Grand Levee has all been put up since the
war. but the first rush of waters swept 1t
away again, and exposed large and produc-
tive portion of the State to two consecutive
foundations. We think that the board was
right in giving precedence to this work. 1t Is
by far the most important of all that come
under their control. Grand Levee is situated
in Pointe Coupee just below the Raccourci
Cutoff. through which the waters pour with
tremendous power when the river is high,
rendering the levees insecure for many miles
below, unless they are very strongly con-
structed. 1t happens, too, that an opening az
this point lets the water into the basin OF the
Atchafalaya-the largest of all the aliuvial
basins of Louisiana, and If 1t happens tha'
Red River is high at the same time, the whole
basin. consisting of nine fertile parishes, is
inevitably submerged The capacity OF the
Atchafalaya is about 81, 1000 cubic feet pei
second, whilst the capacity of Red River l;
about 10000 cubic feet per second; from
which it is plain that the Atchafalaya cannot
carry off the food waters of Red River. Il
the Mississippi is high when there is fiood
in Red River, surplus of nearly $4,000 cubic
feet per second will be forced down the chan
mel of the Atchafalaya, and if this be supple
mented by the invasive waters from crevass'
in Grand Levee, such food as that OF 1867
which laid nine parishes under water, and de
stroyed vast amount Of property, is the IN
eyitable consequence.

as well as the manufacturer, and Is now en-.
tering largely into the question of artificial
illumination. Two methods have lately
been proposed, both said to be OF economi-
cal application. One is to pass current of
air over anhydrous baryta, heated to dull
redness,- in wrought-iron. tube. The
baryta absorbs rapidly the oxygen of the
air, and gives It out again when heated to
whiteness. The other process is to heat
green manganate of soda in q re-.
tort to temperature Of about
$50 degrees, while current of steam
is passed over it. The steam decomposes
the soda into hydrated soda, oxyde of man
ganese and oxygen, the latter passing off
with the steam into water, where it is col.
lected. At the end of the process dry air
is passed through the retort, at dull red
heat, and the manganate of soda is repro
duced, ready for use again indefinitely.
Over eighty successive experiments have
been made successfully with the same man.
