SIaushterhouse Decisions.

All the judicial decisions of the various
suits relative to the Crescent City Live
Stock Landing and slaughterhouse Com
pany, appear to have gone in favor of the
company. The Injunction confirmed by the
Supreme Court has been put in force against
the butchers and stock dealers, and no meat
is allowed to come to the city except from
the slaughterhouse of the company, nor
stock to be received and penned elsewhere
but at that establishment. The proceedings
under the civil rights bill have also come to
naught, and thus far "the slaughterhouse
monopoly" is left "cock of the walk" with
nothing to disturb it but the very remote
prospect of decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States, adverse to the
constitutionality of the act of the Legisla-
ture on point generally regarded by men,
bers of the bar as extremely weak. From
the state of the docket of the Supreme
Court of the United States, only five hundred
cases out of twenty-five hundred having
been reached during the last term of the
court, we see no chance of hearing Oh
this question within the next two years. In
all the litigation the Slaughterhouse Com
psny have, thus far achieved very decided
victories, and the prospect of success on
the part of the butchers is exceedingly re.
mote.

IS cents, and we quote it as closing at
from IS to 81 cents.
As illustrative of the manner in which
the business of the great gold market of
New York is conducted, and as evidence
respecting the real Importance of some of
''the immense transactions in Wall street,
we give the following quotation from the
financial article of one wide-awake ex-
change, the Chicago Tribune, of the twen-
ty-fourth instant:
The failure of gold speculator in New
York is announced by telegraph, with
flourish oflarge figures which may, perhaps,
convey the impression that it was really q
failure of Importance; but those who UNDER
stand How 100000 bushels of wheat may
be bought on q capital of $4,000 put up
in margins, will readily understand that
where gold can be bought on five per cent
margin, . man may seem to be boring a
very large anger hole when, in fact, he is
only boring gimlet hole.
The whole money involved in the $780,
600 failure" of James Boyd was probably not
over $4,000 There was, in fact, no real
gold involved in the transaction, but only
GnaL pleasing uctlOn Oy WHICH the members
of the Gold Exchange endeavor to persuade
themselves and the world that they are not
merely gamblers betting on the price of
gold in other peoples hands. The parties
to these bets on the price of gold, exchange
contracts thst do not represent dollar of
real gold anywhere in creation. The buyer
never expects to receive any actual gold,
and the seller never expects to deliver any.
The whole transaction is q delusion and a
humbug. as far as the movement or chang
ing of dollar OF gold from one owner to
another is concerned. If the price of gold
had not already been very weak and declin-
ing from other causes, several such failures
as the one referred to would not have
affected the price at all.
OF course no such transactions are ever
countenanced in this quiet town, where
combinations to put up or put down
prices without the use of capital, are
never thought Of When broker makes
sale here, it invariably means precisely
what it imports to the uninitiated, and no
one ever heard upon Carondelet street of
Misrepresentation concerning dealings in
securities or coin. We never do anything
so naughty here.

Between eleven and twelve o'clock yester =
day morning phenomenon of rare occur
renee in connection with the presentweathe9
was seen. It WAS an exhibition of the iris in
q position and under conditions hardly ever
witnessed in life time, for instead of a
bow rising from the horizon, the iris made
about three-fourths of circle around the
sun. Although the phenomenon was refer
rable to the same causes that produce the
''bow in the cloud" yet its singularity Of
position puzzled many, and lad them to look
for some other solution Of the strange sp.
pearance. 1t would be easy, however, did
space permit, to show that this rare phenom.
enon was bat a variation of the iris as COM

ON CARONDELEI STREET.

With everything apparently in its favor
as far as the present summer is concerned
Slaughterhouse stock does not seem to gain
in price. 1t did not 60 so high yesterday as
it did Friday or Saturday, and it closed a
trife lower than it did on those days
Neither bulls nor bears seemed anxious to
operate in it, and the days business in the
stock was smaller than nsual-.notwith-
standing new decision adverse to the
butchers. Is money scarce, or are both
sides letting go to take a new hold? The
new abattoir is doing business enough to
make a paying thing of it. No one hears
of any new violation of the host of injunc-
tons guarding the oompany's privileges
The United States Courts have closed. and
the judges of those august tribunals have
fitted to cooler chimes. The State courts
will soon adjourn. Still the stock doesn't
improve. Perhaps it has at last found its
level, and will stay where it is; but that is
to be doubted. 1t has made too pretty o
football to be allowed to rest quietly in
any corner. In fact, there doesn't seem to
have been any corner made for it. It sold
yesterday at $23 so and at s22 so, closing
at say from the latter figure to s23.
Ship Island yesterday made quite a |
start upward. What the cause was, no |
one seemed to know. It was enough that |
t was rising, and trade in it became
quite brisk. In such matters the street
seems to be inclined to join in a game
very much like the juvenile sport of

ences, through bitches, up ladders and

are for neck, limbs, or clothes. So is a
ancy stock pursued, when properly
tarted, whatever may be its value; pell-
lell, heels over head, the brokers rush
'r it, until they get tired out, and only
len pause to know what it was all about.

The Memphis Sun says Of the Filomeno
concert there Friday evening: " Miss Flo
memo is undoubtedly one of the greatest
musical wonders of the age. The critique's
greatest trouble is to ascertain whether it is
upon the violin or piano she most excels.
Upon the former, she is as mnch at home as
is the famous Prume; while upon the latter,
she ranks as one Of the greatest female per-
formers of the age. Her rendition of the
Grand Fantasia, from the Daughter of the
Regiment last evening, can not be sur
passed, while her piano solos brought down
the house in thunders of applause"
