THE ARGUMRNT OF THE Re-
VOLVEK.
Lawles.ly Avenging Wrongs.


Again has our city beer disgraced in the
estimation of law-abiding. God-fearing
citizens, by the repetition of scenes of blood
shed, which may terminate in death.
Whatever the provocation, there is
no shadow of an apology for the deliberate
attempt at assassination Of one citizen by
| another in community of laws and good
government,
Again we express the hope, futile though
it may be, that the majesty of the law may
be vindicated by the exemplary and condign
punishment of offenders against the laws
vino employ the dangerous argument of the
revolver. It is time that this foul blot on
the fair fame of New Orleans should be
obliterated, and that every man should De
| taught that he can not violate the law with
IMMUNITY by taking upon himself the re-
sponsibility of destroying human life.
The safety of the community demands
that murder shall be pronounced murder,
by whomsoever it may be committed, and
that this terrible crime shall be punished,
nc matter by whom it may be perpetrsted.
We torbear to say more than that these are
sentiments we have again and again reiter-
aten

The ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILRoAD.-As
the season approaches when our citizens
will soon be packing their trunks for g. trip
somewhere, it may not be amiss for Us to
make few suggestions regarding the routes
North from Cairo by this celebrated rail-
road. Connecting closely with all the
Southern lines. the Illinois Central runs
through the heart of the great State of
Illinois throughout its whole length, thus
giving the traveller an opportunity to see
the most interesting points of that State.
At Chicago it connects with the whole sys-
tenn of eastern and western railroads.
Going East you can procure via Michigan,
Canada with Niagara Falls directly on the
route, New York Central, or the great Erie
railroads. Going West you can get sleeping
cars and through tickets as far as San Fran
cisco. In fact, this road is to the railroad
system of the United States what the heart
is to the body-it is the great centre of &C.
tivlty, and all other roads are only as ar
teries to enable it to throw out its sustaining
force. Owned by one of the most (if not the
mosD powerful corporations in the world,
its vast affairs are conducted so systemat-
lcally that nothing ever clashes and mistakes
are rarely made. Travellers over this road
never miss connections, and accidents upon
it are 80 exceedingly uncommon that they
are hardly believed to be possible. For the
accommodation of passengers on night
trains the most sumptuous drawing-room
cars in the world are provided, and nothing
lett undone to insure safety and comfort.
We refer our readers to the card of the Gen.
eral Southern Passenger Agent of this road,
Major B. F. Longley, which will be found in
another column, for all particulars as to it's
etc., and advise close perusal.

The New York correspondent of the Gin.
cinnati Gazette says:
The inv tigation into the conduct OF
customhouse officers was continued today.
Forty officers confessed before the Collector
and Surveyor that they had taken brides
from owners of ocean steamers to furnish
them facilities to defraud the government
by smuggling. The evidence is said to be
sufficient to enable the government to con-
who smuggle cargoes of goods with 2e aid
of officials.

MEssRs. FABLE & DALTol's PREMIUMS
We take great pleasure in chronicling the
| fact that Messrs. liable & Dalton, the we'll
known tin and japanned ware manufacturers,
of No. lis Poydras street, have been so sue
cessful at the fair as to get premiums on ten
descriptions of goods exhibited by them.
These premiums are as follows: Best New
Orleans made japanned ware; best iapanned
ware; best toilet sets; best water coolers
best coal hods; best bath tubs for infants
best assortment of bathing tubs; best tea
caddies; best bird cages, and best compost
ton roofing.
This should certainly be enough to satisfy
ordinary mortals, and we congratulate the
firm upon the good qualities of their mer-
chandise meeting with such general ap-
proval. But it could not well have been
otherwise, for Messrs. liable & Dalton's
goods always have given satisfaction wher-
ever introduced. Their japanned ware is
fully equal to any made abroad, both as to
quality of material used and workman ship,
while the wares they keep, of foreign manu-
facture, are all from the most celebrated
manufactures. In regard to their compost
ton roofng-the Asbestos-it is fast super
ceding states and metals, as it is more dura-
Bile, cheaper and lighter. We advise all who
design building to go and look q. il.
