The property holders in the rear of the city
should now breathe freely. even II they have
hood. The commissioners of the second draining
district have given an excuse for 1t. It is that
IAN Injunction has been issued by authority of
the Fifth District Court Of the parish of Orleans ("
epJoiniDg them from draining etc." This s some
consolation /; it beats the old dodge Of "drainine
machines out of ORDER" beyond all comparison
And now that the denizens of that region know
tcty they are overfowed, they doubtless will allow
themselves TO drown with the greatest equanmity,
trusting TO the commissioners of the secon
draining dstrict to fish up their bodies and give
them Christian burial.
And when the concluding paragraph of the
"Undersigned Commissioners" is read the much
prosecuted property holders will conclude that
the immortal bard was about right when he said
that:
Hope springs eternal In the human breast;
Man never Is; but always to be blest."
For they benignly promise that " AS soon as
the injunction is dissolved, the draining machine
will be put in operation, and the district COM
pletely drained"
But, as the said " Undersigned Commissioners
doubtless remembered the peculiar idiosyncrery
of drowning men in catching at straws, and throw
this proruise ont . dottcctv'r We fecf
pressible inclination to recall to the minds Of the
interested parties that they have more than once
been disappointed in their expectations of ser.
mentioned undersigned" Yet, after all, JUS
tice compels US to say that they have at least
gotten 30 far along as an excuse and promise.
These are something. Not very tangible, 10 is
true; but still may possibly give momentary
content.
