has not endured for some

STREET PAYMENTS.

Assuming that all improvements in the
roads and streets which the people pay for
are to facilitate the public convenience,
are we incorrect in assuming that the pub
lie is perfectly willing to pay for the best
article of pavement just as it is willing to
nav for the best article of boots? Being
answered in the affirmative, as sensible
public certainly will, it is as necessary to in
vestigate the material best suited for road
ways, as it is to enquire into the quality OF
the leather which is used by our shoemaker.
Conclusion and friction are elements that
enter into this question, and the point to
be arrived at is not what a pavement
costs, but what resistance it offers to the
wheels that traverse it. If two dollars pei

Everything was serene in, around and
about Carondelet street yesterday. There
is no danger of brain fevers among the
brokers, resulting from efforts to keep the
run Of the days business; but reporters
had hard time of it in attempting to
gather decent list of operations. Money
was borrowed at horrid rates-for bor-
rowers. There is no abatement Of the
pressure. The money market is in an
apparently permanent state of squeeze,
and men with cash to lend have all things
their own way. Parties who are unable
to hold city securities are continually
forcing them upon the market, and are
not generally disposed to be secretiye
about prices realized. There are occa-
sional sales of the stock CT leading bank

STATE TEMPERANCE CONVENTION.


Session Last Evening.
A number of gentlemen, principally resi-
dents of New Orleans, met last evening IN
the Temperance Hall, over the Bible House,
ON Camp street, the object of the meeting
The meeting was called to order by the
appointment of Mr.. w. w. MCCARTHY to the
chair, and DR.. Angel as Secretary.
The chairman, in an address of some
length, dwelt upon the legitimate purposes
of the Society or Union about to be formed.
1t was not expected at once to overturn in
situations for evil that had gained such
hold upon the body polite that they seemed
to lie at the very foundations OF society.
But the most powerful organizations that
have ever controlled men, or shaped, so far
as human means can shape, the destinies of
nations, have arisen from beginnings much
smaller than the present attempt 10 m1u-
ence men for their own good.
Whoever reflected upon 1.-THE cost OF the
administration of criminal justice. the exc
pense of jails, penitentiaries, houses OF
refuge. work houses, and all the awful mass
of social and moral evil that these imply:
whoever reflected upon these things, anu
knew that Intoxicating drinks was the root
of it all, must feel that it is time for men
of thought and men of action, to clear the
way"
A committee of three was appointed to
! report forthwith upon proper designation
for the proposed society, and declara-
| ton of its purposes. The committee reported
| as "A name, the Louisiana State Temper
| ance Union:" the object of which would be
| to oppose by all honorable and legal means
! the use of Intoxicating drinks.
The report was adopted similar com
mittee, appointed to report upon basis
of organization, made report, which was
| adopted.
| Mr.. T. H. Jones moved that the Chair APP
| point committee of five to draft a consti-
tuition and bylaws. Adopted.
The Chair named Messrs. Jones, Matlack,
Van Orden, of Baton Rouge; Jarvis, OF Al
| giers, and Smith the committee to report at
| the next meeting.
After some speaking the Convention adj
journed to meet on Tuesday next, at such
| place as the President may appoint notice
thereof to be published in one OF the daily
| DapcrS.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1870-08-31

AS might have been expected, the Bulletin
wants the City Park money spent in some
other general way, such as engraving, sta
tionery, etc What's the use of Park +!
asks the Bulletin; and it is just as earnest
as the fellow was who had only one shirt,
and got mad when it was intimated that it
would be better to have two. "DO you ex-
pect Teller to have a million of shirts v
Do the people want tons of fresh air or do
they prefer to live so that if they go to
grove it will cost them a drink OF bad
whisky to stay theres If they want to be
without decent pleasure ground, let them
follow the advice of the Bulletin, and spend
their money in general way"
