GAMBLING IN New ORLEANs.--The New Orleans
Times states that the merchants and others of New
Orleans have suffered severely from the steaings of
their employees who gamble off every dollar that they
have been compelled to employ secret police, whose
business it to watch the clerks and employees of the
parties engaging them. Our contemporary adds For
five dollars month they guarantee to report all such
visits with full particulars. Many interesting young
gentlemen, the threshold of fast life" have lately
been staggered at having their gaming escapadss
lated them at their Offices before the fumes of the
nights debauch had entirely relieved their brains
and much establishment has been the result thereat
Although this system is strictly private one it is yet
important to the public to know at what small cost
rigid espionage be and is established over their
gaming habits and all young gentlemen whose tastes
are gerish would do well to take the hint thus i'm
parted, and thus keep out of trouble.

A HEAVY FALL IN GOLD ANrIcIPATED.-AWa Washing.
ton dispatch of the 29h ult, states that the Secretary
of the Treasury it is stated semioically, will adhere
to his programme for selling gold and buying bonds
heretofore throughout the month of January If this
is done, then the the weight of gold the market
will a rapid and sharp decline, probably to 10
If the Secretary only sells 100000 of gold in the
month of January, then the decline will be more steady
and than if he sold 81 100000, because it will

tendency of gold will have short interest to sustain

THE SUEz CANAL.-We have different reports of the
utility of this great work. Some reports are to the
effect that is failure and others that is success
in the fullest sense of the word. We are inclined to
place more reliance in the latter from the fact that it
is better endorsed. Gaignanis paris, France,) Mes
senger of the 9th utimo states that the rafc for the
first II days follows: Fhytwo vessels arrived
from Port Said at Lake Timsah between the 18th and
10Th ofNovember and between the 20 and 28th;
ifty-one vessels left Lake Tmsah for Suez from the
10Th to the 21st, and five from the 22d to the 28th

THE DEMOCRATIC LEADER THE UNITED STATES
SENArE.-The Democracy, it seems have at last got
leader in the United States Senate, which they feel
proud in following. We have reference to Senator
Thurman of Ohio. The Washington correspondent
of the New York World, in speaking of him, that his
mere physical appearance is imposing, and his bearing
the manifest that can be supposed. His intellect Is a
lantern which, whenever he speaks, fairly irradates
the chamber As debater he is now confessed to
stand in the foremost ranks He never speaks without
having something, nay much, to say, and that some
thing always driven straight to the point at issue.
He invariably commands the attention of the Senate.
Few have yet been bold enough to enter into battle
with him, and such as have ventured skrmish with
him have retired worsted. His logic, sarcasm, and
bitter playful irony are alike the best weapons OF
their kind Fearless resolute and scornfu yet often
gentle, never dscourteous and very rarely unjust this
Senator has already made himself feared and respected
as an opponent and is spoken of with great cordially
by those who have had the pleasure of meeting him in
| private life.
