Mutual Insurance Company.. Their bids
were accepted to the entire face of the
certificates instead of the pro rata hereto
fore proposed.
It is very creditable to the institutions
named to have had the public spirit to APP
preciate, at their proper value, the obliga-
tons of the city, at a time when foreign
war has had tendency to discourage the
best and safest operations of finance.
1t is also creditable to the city admins
tration, that they are determined not to
submit to a sacrifice of the city assets
submitted to them to defray the floating
debt. 1t has been repeatedly urged, but
only by interested persons, that the city
was bound to sell at the minimum rate
allowed by law. This is, evidently,
mistake, for the act of the
Legislature nowhere says so, and provides,
on the contrary, that the bank certificates
shall bear seven per cent per annum from
issue till payment This provision would
be of no purpose were it the duty of the
city to sell at once and be forced to ac-
cept the minimum rate for in that case
there would be no delay and no interest
Holders of the debt, if they do not
wish to wait for cash to the entire face
and interest of the bank certificates, can
at once receive 1.21 in bonds, or over one
fifth more in city obligations than they
now have. This is doing pretty we'll

Z What does the mere existence of the
free-love element in society denote? Ger
tainly it's possibility to the human family,
in its best aspect, whatever that may be.
1t argues the approach of civilization
endorsed with it. It has arisen at time
while the forces that control human action
are yet those dwelling at the base OF the
brain; but there are, doubtless, many whose
thoughts and tendencies are already lliu-
mined from the more elevated brain hoor
of the cerebrum. These are they who are
not on perpetual watch for evil or sensuous
demonstrations, are not suspicious OF
mems motives to moral action, do not
hi,,k impurity and vice. Such may rise
to higher plain Of affection than we Know
and carry GU. in their lives the doctrine OF
indiscrimate free-love withouta thought OF
incontinence or other than the purest In
centives of the inner mind. But this class OF
men and women must await the time when
the universal mind shall be so advanced as
to perceive the possibility in human nature
of a love so pure and a sentimentality so
spiritual. Yet none of US know that to
such perfection the world is not unfolding
by the very means that appear so unprom-
Using, and which produce the direful ap-
prehension that in few years we shall be
without morals.

STATE OF LOUISIANA
Executive Department.
New Orleans, May 49, 1870
WHEREAS An act of the Legislature, approved
March 5 1855 entitled "An act to establish quaran-
tine for the protection of the State provides that
the Governor of the State shall issue his prOclama.
ton upon the advice Of the Board of Health, de-
clarng any place where there shall be reason to
believe pestilent contagious infectious disease
exists to be infected place and stating the num-
Der of days of quarantine to be performed by the

Now, therefore, in pursuance of the provision of
the act aforesaid issue this, my proclamation and

ON CARONDELET STREET.

The market exhibited no activity yes
terday. There was the usual amount OF
talk upon Gold Room corner, and
great deal Of comparing notes as to values,
but no one seemed over anxious to do
any business. Prices are unsettled and
the occasional transactions that take place,
are so often the result of the necessities of
buyer or seller, that they can hardly be
said to fix rates for the street. For in
stance, there were three sales of Slaughter
house yesterday at SIS, SIT so and SIG SO.
Each sale was bona .fde. Nothing &C.
CURED during the day to put the stock up
or down. The difference in the sew
eral prices, we must conclude, was
due entirely to the position Of the
several parties to the separate
trades. There is no use in talking OF a
market under such circumstances. The
Brokers' Board is necessity to regulate
prices: but there is not business enough
at this season to pay for assembling it
The Brokers Board is a balance wheel,
but the street doesn't get up steam enough
now to move it.
Precisely what Slaughterhouse was
worth yesterday, we can not say. 1t was
offered at SIT 25, and that figure is not
far from the estimate of the street con-
corning it; however, no one wanted to
buy at that price, while some holders en-
tertained more exalted views on the
subject.
Nothing has occurred to fix price fol-
Ship Island. Holders are uncertain con-
corning it, and the stock does not seem tc
be in demand.
Valley Levee was offered at the reduced
rate of So. There is very little confidence
displayed as to the future Of this inchoatt
institution, and parties who have sold out
seem to consider themselves lucky.
A large lot of seven per cent city bonds
changed hands at private terms. Lots
of 5000, $4,000 and s13,2sO old State
warrants were disposed of at 80 cents.
Our gold market followed New York
rates all day, dealers buying at point
under the Wall street figures, and selling
at half point above the purchasing
price. The prices at New York yesterday
were as follows: At ten. 116a; half-pas'
ten, 11555; noon, III; three o'clock
1857.
! The city has negotiated, in exchange fol
certificates of the floating debt issued by
the Bank Of New Orleans, 5000, 900 Of
bonds Of the three million issue. Some
of the bids were IS and 81, but most O
those accepted were at 824, and none al
less. The largest bidders, SO far, were
the Gas Light Company, the Firemen's
Charitable Association and the Merchants

We have reported that the brig Iheresa
Butler, Captain Butler, from Rockland,
Maine, with cargo of thirty-tive hundred
barrels of lime, bound to New Orleans,
caught fire at sea. about two weeks before
the termination of the voyage, and was
brought to this port in a burning condition,
and after unavailing attempts to subdue
the fire, was scuttled and sunk.
She was abandoned to the Underwriters,
sold at auction, bought by c. Grande, and
raised under contract by Francis & Watson,
wreckers and divers, of New Orleans. The
hull. it now appears, was burned in the
fore hold, on the larboard bow, forward OF
the foremost, between the port cathead and
fore-rigging, at her led line. She was also
burned between decks, on her larboard
bow. The windlass bits were burned on at
the heel, and the pail bit is badly burned at
the bottom. The ends OF the beams 1or-
ward of the fore lower hatchway, are
-hrr,,ed off on the larboard side. Two hang
mo knees in the between decks are burned
off The Theresa Butler will be delivered
n the present owners on Saturday

On July 81 hostilities began by krans,
a Prussian fuselier, shooting the first
Frenchman near Forbach. The French
were then fifteen thousand strong at that
post, and in no respect ready for serious
operations. A subsequent repulse OF
French cavalry. who had the temerity to
attack the Prussians, resulted in their
losing an officer and thirteen men.
Since the Austro-P russian war the nee
die gun has been much improved, having
a shorter barrel and being lighter. 1t
fires quicker than the Chassepot, but at
long range the latter has the advantage.
It carries nearly mile. The Prussian
cavalry are not surpassed by the French,
being as splendidly mounted and quite as
much at home in the saddle.
After the Forbach skirmish the Prus-
sian attack on the railway at Bitche, the
order for which had been given on the
eighteenth, drew out further assaults and
repulses in all of which, excepting on
the night of the thirtieth, the Prussians
obtained the advantage The destruction
of the line which runs to Hagenau, and
to Strasburg, was important, as it would
prevent the concentration of the French
from the South. At first, the French ac-
lively and successfully repulsed the expe-
dition, driving back cavalry, engineers,
miners and workmen. This was on the
night of the thirtieth. But the pro-
gramme was changed by mounting all
hands, making the workmen and miners
riders in a night, and on resuming
operations the French were COM
pletely surprised. The country around
was startled by the tremendous
explosion, which carried away the via
duct land they succeeded in tearing and
blowing up the line on both sides
of the viaduct for some consider
able distance. There is no doubt
the success of this little expedition,
alike skillfully planned and executed,
told in the summary of more sanguinary
events that ensued and eliminated in
French disaster, the details of which we
have not yet fully received. These events
seem to suggest that the Idees Napoleon
nienes should be revised and corrected, for
the Nephew of his Uncle means to be out
generated in the cause Of that peace which
he saws the empire means.

A CARD.

An account of raising the brig Theresa Butler
has appeared in more than of the daily papers.
leaving the facts somewhat jumbled up In justice
to all parties the real facts are here stated
Captain Grande, who purchased the brig, con.
tracted with Messrs. Francis Watson, the well
known wreckers to raise her. These gentlemen
engaged the underwriters pumping tug, Tyler,
commanded by Captain Davis, to do the necessary
humping which was well done by Mr. Latimer,
Chief engineer of. the Tyler. The vessel being
pumped out the bulk heads being perfectfully tight,
the Tyler has withdrawn, and the work is in pro-
