Sbip,s Cargo Damaged by vitriol.

Ships Cargo Damaged by v1trlOI.
The new ship Austria arrived here from
Boston on the twenty-fOurth Of September,
and, though it was not reported at the time
of her arrival, it appears that on the pas
sage out heavy sea struck the ship, and
of ninety-eight carboys of vitriol on deck,
all but one were broken.
The captain of the ship was badly burned
by the vitriol, from his knees down, and is
still suffering severely from the effects OF
the disaster.
The vitriol was consigned to Mr.. Water
man, the soda manufacturer, of this
city. Under the decks the ship had large
and valuable cargo of assorted merchandise,
and an examination of the cargo disclOses
the fact that it has been damaged to the
estimated amount of sixty thousand dol
lars, the vitriol having penetrated through
the decks.
A large quantity of fish between decks is
in a horrible condition, and, of course,
ruined. We do not learn that the hull of
the Austria sustained much damage, bnt
her spare rigging is spoiled. Negotiations
have been progressing between the con-
signees and the underwriters, and it is
understood that the latter do not consider
that they insured against vitriol as one OF
the ordinary dangers of the sea, and they
will, therefore, decline to pay the losses.
The ship and cargo are now in charge of the
Port Warden.

Too Much Name.

Young Mr.. Kidder, son Of old man Kid
der Of New York, who is now in Paris, tele-
graphs to his pa that the terrible stories
manufactured by Bismarck about the dis
sensions and troubles in Paris are false and
unreliable Kidder has got three letters too
many at the end of his name, and the mis-
fortune is that he considers. the general run
of mankind as only SO many kids. All the
reported troubles of which he writes were
telegraphed directly from the city of Paris,
and Bismarck had no more to do with man
ufacturing them than he had with getting
up young Kidder himself. But MIR. Bis
marck proposes to create some trouble III
Paris before he has done with it, and if old
Kidders youthful heir don't get out Of that
village, he will find occasion to write to his
pa different story from what he now re-
ports. Bismarck is too busy setting up sol
diers around Paris to be bOthering his head
about the soldiers that are inside of the
place Kidder's three months provisions
are getting shorter every day, and when he
sees his cheese and crackers cut down to
such minimum that they would hardly do
to bait rat trap. he will not write so hope
fully as he does to-day.

Academy of Music.

"Sindbad the Sailor" was witnessed last
the attractiveness of this gorgeous display
of scenic effect, we noticed among the
audience a great many who had witnessed
the representation Of the previous evening
But there was also large accession of new
comers, and it looks as if Sindbad is to have
long and successful run. We omitted in
our previous notice of the present pro-
gramme, to mention 'Dr. Stones LabOra-
tory" which affords so fine an opportunity
to test the artistic abilities Of Messrs A. B..
Kennedy, Walter Bray, w. Cooper and
James Fields. These two latter per-
formers are unquestionably superior in
their celebrated double clog dance We need
not mention Billy Carter, for he needs only
to be seen to be appreciated. The various
other performances are still given with all
their former attractiveness. to judge from
the enthusiastic plaudits of the audience.
The magnificent burlesque extravaganza
entitled the white Cat" now in full tide
of success in the largest cities Of Europe
and the United States, not to mention AL
giers. Southwest Pass, Pass-a-rOutre and
other quarantined ports of entry, will soon
be put on the Academy's boards, at consid-
erable expense to the managers. This
piece has been finely translated from the
French, and is said to surpass anything OF
the kind ever presented to our citizens.
This extraordinary extravaganza will be
given on Monday evening, with new scene
ry. costumes and properties. sufficient to
astonish the most blase, introducing all Of
the actors and actresses.

The Twelfth Of October.

The Trio al Bersaglio are making the
most active preparations for the celebration
of the anniversary of the birth of Columbus
on the twelfth of the month. The yellow
fever has been especially heavy on the
Italians, and in consequence they have been
compelled to abandon part OF their pro
gramme. 1t was originally intended to
carry with them in the procession a NAM
moth ship, with a crew dressed in character
to personate the band of adventurers who
landed at St. Salvador, in l492. Unfortun-
ately. however, sickness has put an end to
this scheme and the celebration will, in
consequence, be shorn of a portion of its
attraction. The society will muster at their
hall, and, preceded by two companies of
rihemen, under command of Colonel San
soni. and marshaled by Mr.. Frank Pace. Jr.,
and his assistants. will parade the Second
and Third Districts.
They will stop at the house of the Italian
CONSUL and after serenading him. will re-
ceive him in their ranks. The society will
pay their respects to the Mayor, and at two
o'clock will assemble with invited guests in
the Lyceum Hall, where speeches will be
made by Mr.. Siniago, editor Of the Grenada
(Mississippi) Sentinel, Mr.. johnson, Of the
Mayors office, and others. The speeches
will be made in three languages, Italian.
French and English. The Mayor and all
the Administrators have been invited to
participate in the entertainment, and a
costly lunch will be provided for the invited
guests. at the Lyceum. The society will
close the days proceedings by social gath
ering at their meeting room.

jackson Railroad.

The Saturday evening and Sunday morn
ing excursions on the Jackson Railroad are
still continued. and those who wish to
breathe little country air, and recreate
themselves with the prospect of country
scenery, by taking ticket for the five
o'clock train on Saturday evening, or the
seven o'clock train on Sunday morning, can
have their days enjoyment, and return
either before daylight. or at eleven o'clock
on Monday morning fully in time for the
ensuing weeks business. Although sum-
mer is considered the more proper excur-
sion season, yet the present time OF year is
the more enjoyable. on account OF the alb
sence of heat. Those who try it say that
the country scenery of autumn is more
preferable in this climate than at any other

More Chinese Immigrants.

More than two hundred Cinnamon have
arrived at this port from Hong Kong, and
are now short distance below the city.
These men came here under a contract to
perform plantation and farm labor. They
came on the ship Charles Auguste. and
arrived on Thursday last. We learn that a
portion of them are engaged to work on the
plantation of Mr.. j. NJ. Pelton: others are to go
on the plantation of Mr.. Won Phul, and the
greater proportion will be employed by Mr..
Williams. of the house of John Williams &
Son, through whose agency the contract
with these Cinnamon has been made. These
Chinese immigrants arc fully equal in in
telligence, and physical capacity for labor,
with those of their countrymen who have
preceded them.

The Collector at San Francisco tele-
graphed to Secretary Boutwell, that two
hundred and twenty-six casks Of seal fur
skins, the cargo of the Hawaiian bark Man
aloa, which recently arrived at that port,
had been shipped to New York in bond over
land The treasury officials are yet in doubt
as to the locality of Jones Island, where, it
is alleged, the seals were captured, and
whether they are subject to import duty or
not.-REPUBLICAN of yesterday.
Query Are not these seal skins taken
from animals killed on St. Paul and St
Georges Island, through connivancc of the
treasury officials, and additional to the one
hundred thousand authorized by act of Con-
gress in the lease of said islands to the
Alaska Commercial Company, the Jones
Island being purely imaginary 1t will be
recollected that the Alaska company are
bound to pay to the government two dollars
tax on each seal taken on the islands of St
Paul and st. George.

to the pioneers Of the Prussian guard.
The stream falls into the Seine some miles

The route is now open to Charlottesville

In n case where, during the late war, a

was not in open hostility to the government,
and the latter, when it was ascertained the
lands would not be cOnfscated, recOnveyed
to his son-in-law, without valuation or con-

confers a taxable succession on the sOn-in-

POlygiOt Orator.

We understand there was remarkable
Democratic meeting held in the Tenth
Ward on Thursday night. Judge Cotton
was the chief orator of the occasion. 1t is
said he was delivered of three speeches, or
it may be nearer to the real facts in the case
to say one speech three times. He first gave
it to them in English, then he essayed Ger
man, and finally translated it into French.
Here is man for the Democracy to be
proud of, because he has it in his power to
mislead all the nationalities of which New
Orleans is made up. 1t is good thing to
have Democratic ideas widely disseminated,
for we have observed that where the party
and its practices are best known, there the
Republican successes are the best assured.
We hope the accomplished linguist will con-
tinue his efforts until the Republican ma
jority in the Fourth District is Increased
beyond possibility of defeat in November.

The scarcity of sardines for edible pur-
poses, it is stated, is not due to the deser-
ton of the coast of France and Spain by
those fish, but to the fact that the sardines
are pressed into oil, which is shipped to

soaps. Within the last twelve months it is
reported that one hundred tons of sardine

field for breakfast and dinner. and assisted
twice during the day in carrying cotton to

Willie picked an average of one hundred
