CARfcATrRE.-The Statesman learns tina:
some rustic artist drew charcoal figure of n
Cbinaman on the smooth side of stump, near
Ccntcrville, and wrote underneath "Our Del
egate to Congress-" and is in a quandary as to
whether the artist should apologize to Sam
Merritt or to the Chinaman. We are reliably
that the caricatnre was the work of
n Radical, and was intended to represent our
selfelectcd Delegate, Reynolds of the States.

of Main and Washington streets in Centerville,

such Roadway that. despite the efforts of the
citizens to arrest the flames, it rapidly spread

Orr or QCASpARY.-Some time ago Mr..
Grant appointed Senator Morton of Indiana
Minister to England to succeed Motley. As
the general election in his State was close at
hand, Dir. Morton concluded to give no definite
answer whether or not he would accept the
position. Should he accept at once. and the
Democracy carry Indiana. then n Democrat
would be appointed TO fill the vacancy caused
by his acceptance Of the English mission; aud
therefore, IN view of such contingency. like
Frelinghnyscn, he took the matter under nd.
visement 1t now appearing that Indiana has
gone Democratic by handsome majority. Mr..
Morton, in order 10 save n vote for the Rad.
cal party in the Senate, and thus misrepresent
the sentiments and feelings Of majority of
the people Of his State, concludes to decline
the profered honor of Minister to the Court of
st. James and cling to the Senatorial toga. 1t
will avail hun, IA well as his party, but tenn
porary advantage. Indiana is Democratic, and
one whose views are In concert with the wishes
of majority Of the people of that State win

THE MOUTH OF TEE RIVER,

The work of improving the mouth
of the Mississippi, so as to Sc
cure a proper depth of water Oh the
bar for the passage of ships suitable for
the uses of commerce, is Of more impor-
lance to US than would be another Pacific
railroad or the completion of the Chat
tanooga read to Texas. And not only
New Orleans, but the greater portion Of
the States bordering on the river and it's
tributaries, are vitality interested in the
matter. The mouth of the Mississippi is
the outlet and inlet of more than ten
times as much freight as any one
railroad in the United States can
transport, and there is no limit to its
possible capacity. 1t is the natural out
let of the products of the Mississippi val
ley, and the river and it's tributaries form
the most extensive system of inland com
munication in the world. IN this great
valley may be found an immense guam
tity Of the richest lands, capable Of grow
ing almost every known product, and of
sustaining population of many millions.
At no distant day the substantial power
and wealth Of this continent will be found
here on the shores Of the great rivers,
whose waters flow out to the sea over the
bars Of the Balize.
The cost OF removing the obstruc-
ton, composed, as it is, Of soft allu-
vium, would not amount to one per cent
OF the trade, even supposing it to cost as
much as one large railroad, which is esti-
mated in this country to be from S25, coo
to 100000 per mile. Once, open the bar
could be kept in navigable condition for
less than 100000 year, which would be
thought very small item for yearly re-
pairs to many roads Of no very great pre-
tensions. We have the example Of Con-
gress appropriating money and land, and
indorsing bonds for important and desira-
BILE works of improvement, but generally
not of one-tenth the magnitude or impor-
lance of the work demanded at the bar.
The Legislature of this State, at its last
session. passed an act to afford aid in the
prosecution of the work, and others of
similar character. If Mississippi
and the other contiguous States would
make liberal appropriations for the pur-
pose, conditioned upon the success Of the
work, II would be done, and that promptly,
even without the aid of Congress. With

ON CARONDELET STREET.

A dispatch in last evenings Pjcay,s1e
s tates that gold in New York he'd an
upward tendency, on account Of rumors OF
war with Spain. We imagine that this
must have been rather the, expression of
an anticipated consequence than the re-
port of an existent fact, as the latest New
York advices report gold to be weak at
113@1135 The upward movement seems
to have reached its limit for the present,
though it may be repeated perhaps, more
than once during the summer.
TIE rise was due, in great measure, to
the decline of United States bonds in Eu-
rope, but this cause has probably had its
full effect. Nevertheless, it seems idle to
expect that there can be any such decline
during the current season as will bring
currency to par with gold. We shall have
to wait for another large crop, and for an
extraordinary evolution of industrial en-
ergy, before specie will again become the
currency Of the country.
There was not very much business done
on Carondelet street yesterday. All the
fancy stocks were fat, except navigation,
in which there was something of a sir,
over the strength of which the stock went
up to II.
The following were the transactions al
the board last night:

The CHEAPEST CLOTHING IN Town.
1t has really been some time subject
of establishment how Mr.. D. Mer-
cier, at the corner of Dauphine
and Bienville streets, manages to sell his
clothing, furnishing goods, hats, caps,
boots and shoes so remarkably cheap as he
does. AT his store gentleman can pur-
chase splendidly made clothing and furnish
ing goods and all other articles required for
his outfit at about half the price he would
have TO pay elsewhere. Mr.. MERCER also
has manufacturing department in his
establishment, where he makes garments to
order in the very latest styles, on the same
cheap scale of prices. His tallors are as
good as any in the city, and his stock of
cloths and cassimeres large and fine. Those
who want good articles at bargains should
giyehim call ct once, for his spring goods
have ar1Ted.

levees for the protection Of our rich bot
tom lands from overflow, a system Of
drainage and an assurance of permanently
cheap freights, the Mississippi valley
would soon be able to pay the national
debt Or, if Congress will furnish thirty
or forty year bonds We can pay the inter
est and principal out of our growth and
our pro rata Of taxes at the same time.
Money, judiciously used, is all that is
needed. We have the genius and practi-
cal skill, ready to respond to the first offer.
There have been several plans proposed
for the clearing of distractions from the
bar, some Of which are quite simple, but
none the less valuable or practicable
on that account. We believe the
system Of stirring up the water
by strong spiral screw, as invented oy
E. Is. Bishop, has been received with as
much favor by engineers as any yet tried.
And there is no doubt but the State or
National Government can have the work
undertaken with guarantee Of complete
success. A yearly appropriation, payable
quarterly, upon the certificate of the Chief
Engineer Of the State, thai the prescribed
dep'h Of water was found on the bar,
would no doubt be all sufficient to settle
question which has been fruitful source
of trouble for thirty or forty years. Because
the John Slidell Democracy Of the olden
time invariably used the annual appropria-
ton for political purposes, that is 20 reason
why the money would not be faithfully
applied, since we have Republican ad-
ministration. At least we ought not be
made to suffer any longer, in consequence
of the regulations of politicians, tina. we
have loug since forever repudiated.

Aank OF LGfayettc.

The Board of Directors of this institution
completed its organization last night by the
election of officers. MIR. S. Hopkins, Jr.,
was chosen pres ident, and Mr. T. D. Van
hcr1, cashier. This selection for the chief
officers of the bank can not tail proving
fortunate, as both tie gentlemen are first
class business men, and have a large eX-
perience in the commercial affairs Of this
city. Mr.. Hopkins is considered to have
few superiors in this community as a inan-
cier and man of judgment, while none
stands higher in point Of integrity. Mr.
Van Horn may be said to be the father OF
the bank, for it was he who first originated
the enterprise, and by his indomit
able energy ard perseverance made
it success. Conceiving that
the reghborhood of Magazine Market
would be an excellent location for bank,
he, unaided and alone, in face of obstacles
which would have deferred most men from
the undertaking, went to work, and in q
comparatively short time, obtained subscrip-
tons 10 the necessary amount of stock;
and now, his idea has life and substance.
Such man must prove good officer; and
the stockholders, at an early date, Will
doubtless have cause to congratulate them
selves upon having obtained his services.
The bank is TO be located in the immedi-
ate vicinity Of Magazine Market, and will
be opened for business As soon as the legal
formalities are complied with. Subscribers
to stock are requested to call at the Office of
Mr.. Beck, notary public, No 20 Camp
street, and sign the charter, today.
