By an advertisement in another column
it will be seen that the Crystal Palace,
corner of Charities and Cont streets, will
open this evening-admission free. The
place is styled in the bills, "Cafe Chantant,'
which is, being interpreted, the singing
coffeehouse. There will be variety of en-
tertainments, mingled with choice wines
and liquors. The drinks will give zest to
the performances, and the performances
will enliven the drinks. The hall is fitted
up in style combing comfort and beauty.
Mr.. Julius Socha is proprietor, which means
good order, and Mr.. Thomas E. Ryan is
stage manager, which means fun. This
may prove TO be the most fascinating, at
tractive and pleasant place Of amusement
in the city, and we presume many people
will 90 there to see.

shall have nnatured in years, audacity,
and the various developments Of imperial
rascality, she will repeat herself in the
Bonapartean sense. However, this is q
longer tether than we proposed, as it is py
no means certain that the Emperor, al
though he loosened the Marseildise, means
to loosen speedily those who indulge IN
the license it calls freedom, it once the
said Emperor returns and gets his pacific
hands upon them. Should, for instance,
the chassepot be SO fortunate as to per-
suade the needle gun to permit Napoleon
number three to postpone his martyrdom,
and go home, we would not care to be IN
the shoes-ifty-three pairs OF them
of those thoroughbred patriots of the
Corps Legislatif who voted for Dictator,
and were told on the spot by some
prophetic soul that they ought to be court
martialed and shot.
Sometimes men of middling capacities
like Napoleon, when they abandon their
own mental steering in moments OF des-
peration, and give themselves madly to the
lightning and the gale, u fall on fortune
and outride the storm. So it might be
with the French Emperor if he put away
his military vanity and ambition, and on
French, not German soil, 60 it exclusively
on luck. Then the war could be closed,
possibly without loss to him, not Of pres
tige, but of honor, and Paris would re-
ceive him like another Caesar, willing to
prolong the imperial sway just as any one
is willing to do what any one has no
available means to help doing.
+. The rumors of operations before Metz
hint of successful repulse. It is a
threadbare possibility under all the cir
cumstances, but we have not gifts that
vouchsafe us certainty in our conclusions.
We simply do not believe in change Of
French fortune not warranted by known
conditions, and of which We have no
credible news On the contrary, our i'm
preston is strong that the Emperor and
his generals are no match for the Prussian
King and his officers.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

Beyond the subsistence of Ship Island,
there was nothing remarkable upon the
street yesterday. Very few transactions
were made public Dealers in these un-
settled times are unwilling to disclose the
terms upon which sales are made. Par
ties compelled to sell stocks at any price
to meet obligations, and parties forced to
buy stocks to fulfill bargains, must take
things as they find them, and that with
out any noise. Sometimes they are I'M
willing to have it understood that they
have been driven to realize at shaving
rates. Sometimes they are only anxious
that an exceptional sale should not affect
the price of shares in which they are
large holders-but the fact undoubtedly
is, that during the intermission of the
sessions of the Brokers' Board, half the
daily sales of securities are not reported, be-
cause the parties to the operations are
literally afraid to have the figures quoted.
A broker sells a lot Of any stock at given
figure, for his patron. An hour later, an
other customer requires his services in
disposing of similar lot of the same
stock He is compelled to sell the second
lot at price varying good deal from his
first transaction. For fear of exciting
comment from either of his friends, he
refuses to let the public know anything
about the rates at which his sales have
been made. So we lose deal of Informal
ton, owing to the thin skins of the brokers
and their patrons.
Ship Island has had decided and
woful fall. 200 shares sold yesterday at
47ac. and another lot Of the same amount
at 35c. If this goes on, we shall have to
represent its market value by minus
quantity.
Nineteen shares of Slaughterhouse sold
yesterday at SIG 25. 1t is absolutely i'm
possible to state what is the real value Of
the stock.
$4,000. old State warrants sold at 9Oc.
Canal Bank stock is now quoted at from
$50 to $40.
Gold opened in New York yesterday at
ten o'clock at 1174; at half-past ten it
was worth 117s at twelve it stood at
117a, and at three 117s. Our dealers kept
cautiously behind these rates as usual,
offering a point below New York prices,
and selling at half a point higher than the
purchase price.

New York has shipped nearly seventeen
millions in gold and silver since the first of
July. Of this sum S14,O9s, 730 was in Ameri-
can gold coin. Most of this has been di-
rectly or indirectly drawn out of the treas
ury of the United States, but to what ex-
tent the balances, amounting to sl12,776,-
449 at the close of June, have been drawn
down, can not be known for some days
from the monthly scheduled the pub

The following are few of the reasons why thls
CONCRETE should be used in preference to all
other materials:
It has been tested through of the hottest OF
New Orleans summers and found not to soften py
the heat of the sun.
2. Being in general use at the North, it necessa-
riy must be proof against cold
g. Il is as durable as stone and much less expen-
sive.
L. 1t is perfectly impervious.to water, and conse'
quently quickly becomes dry when wet
S. 1t makes no dust in dry or mud in wet wea-
Their.
6. It does not creak or crumble, nor is it washed
by the rain.
T. 1t is mpenetrable to grass weeds or water.
8. 1t prevents noxious vapors or gases arising
from the ground beneath, and affords no reservoirs
for filth Or fostering decompOsitions.
g. 1t is laid down quickly and ready for use
when finished.
TO- 1t is easily taken up, easily relaid, and easily
repaired when necessary.
