HONOR TO THE BRAVE,

On the thirtieth instant recurs what
may now be considered the national as
we'll as annual ceremony of visiting the
cemeteries where sleep the soldiers, who,
during the recent war, fell victims to the
casualties of battle or the equally fatal
hardships of camp life, and decorating
their graves with flowers. We honor and
commend the sentiment which prompts
such demonstrations, and trust that every
true patriot in our city, who can, will at
tend and participate in the ceremonies at
Chalmette.
In a general sense, at least, we are now
at peace, and law and order have resumed
sway. The din Of war has ceased-its
anxieties and uncertainties no longer har-
rass, and the marks of its desolations are
rapidly disappearing. For all this COM
parative quiet and security we owe the
survivors of our loyal armies debt of
gratitude which can not be expressed in
words, while our obligations are deeper
still to those who sacrificed life to ensure
what we now enjoy. This obligation we

0ners at this session, We note very urn
feeling in Slaughterhouse stock, although
the operations were confined to the curb
stone manipulators at the "Gold Rom"
corner. The first transfer of the day was
one of 400 at $50; later 100 at $32 and 100
at S32 25.
1t has been arranged by the Board of
Administrators of the city to confirm the
sale of the city's stock in the Jackson
Railroad to Mr.. McComb. The 100000
which has SO long been idle in the vaults
Of the Louisiana National Bank, will now
be made to gladden. the hearts and fill the
craving stomachs of the poor city en-
ployes. I'VE learn that Mr.. Nc
Comb will go Immediately to work
to make our main iron artery
a first.class road. so that it shall CORES
pond with the Mississippi Central. The
effect of this transfer has been to diminish
the value of the stock, a thousand shares
of which was offered at the board at a
sharp decline.
Ship Island stock is still weak. 1t is
held at 81 05. and 81 is bid. Some few
transfers have been made at the inter-
mediate figures.
Our solid stocks continue very firm, and
meet with ready sale.
Gold is less firm than it has been dur
ing the early part Of the week, and moves
on slowly. We append the bids and offers

In the Sixth District Court, on Tuesday
last, during the argument in the case of
O'Neill and others VS.. John W. Swords and
others, assessors, Judge Cotton, represent
ing the old board, inquired of Hon. Henry
L. Rey whether or not he was engaged in
copying the assessment roll of 1869, made
by his clients with view thereby OF com.
hitting a fraud on the taxpayers OF New
Orleans. In consideration of the fact that
this roll was made by Messrs. Casey. O'Neill
& Co., we think the remark of our friend
Cotton savors of cruelty. Is it true that the
Democratic Board of Assessors, who ask to
be continued in Office, have, in the words OF
their own attorney, made an assessment
roll which is fraud, on the people of New
Orleans? We think not.
