lust one was pleased, while another, who
reversed the rule, found that there was
inst none at all. So, in daily intercourse,
they who seek to please by other rules
than those of politeness, and the exercise
of dignifed department, are usually
called fools for their pains, and reap de-
rision for reward We are sometimes SEN
timentally overcome by amateurs in the
mysteries of the capm, who, believing that
large appropriateness is the best phreno-
logical capital, or stock in trade, to start
the world with, are usually stranded on
the shores of ridicule without learning
that their favorite science has caused such
disaster. These are prone to please
socially, and treating truth as castaway,
indulge themselves in sprinkies OF lie, and
indeed. whole showers, and therein seek,
to their ultimate confusion, the admira-
ton and appreciation of society
It is a beautiful sensibility that is
shocked by the least sprinkle of lie, and a
glorious endowme Mt to overflow with love
of truth. These are natural possessions
of the human family, but are unlearned
every day by the overcivilized races with
much trouble and at infinite cost. In the
practice of art, always for mistaken ends,
we lose our love of nature; and we vary in
the eyes of others from the sublime OBJ
iects we seem in our own, as much as
we depart from rectitude; or in other
words. as much as We adulterate for pun
gency the simple water of truth with our
sprinklings of lie.

THErAcxsoN RAILROAD CONTEMPT CASE.

The rule taken upon the President
and Directors of the Jackson Railroad
Company to show cause why they should
not be punished for contempt, because
they had proceeded with the work OF
track-laying on st. Joseph street, came
ND before Judge Emerson yesterday. Inc
case presents the following history
The old directory of the road obtained
permission from the Common COUNCIL TO
run their cars by steam to the river,
through St Joseph and Delord streets.
An injunction was obtained on behalf OF
property holders on St. Joseph street, re-
straining the company from proceeding.
At first the chief objection was founded
on the fact that steam locomotives were to
be used to propel the cars. The in
junction was obtained from the Sixth Dis
trict court, aed was made perpetual. Sub
sequently act No. IS, special session, 1870,
was passed, which was believed to give
authority for the company to proceed
This act forbids the use of steam. After
the passage of this act, application was
made to dissolve the injunction, but be-
fore final decision was rendered, the case
was transferred to the Eighth District
Court The effect of the injunction
granted by Judge Cooley was not i'm
paired by the transfer, but it was be-
Ieved that the act referred to operated as
a supersedeas. In order that there might
be no doubt on the subject, however, the
company, on the eighteenth, obtained
from the Judge Of the Eighth District
Court an injunction against the plaintiffs
in the first Injunction, commanding them
not to interfere with the company in the
prosecution of the work, which they al
legged in their petition they were about to
renew.
No sooner had the men been set to
work, however, than the plaintiffs OBJ
tanned the rule to show cause why the
coulpany's officers should not be punished
for contempt of the order Of Judge Cooley.
Upon the trial of the rule, yesterday,
Judge Emerson promptly decided that
the order of Judge Dibble, of the
eighteenth, was sufficient authority for
the company to go on with the work; that
it relieved them to that extent from the
disabilities imposed upon them by the
injunction of Judge Cooley, and that con-
sequently, they were not guilty of con-
tempt. He therefore discharged the rule.
The effect of this decision is that the
the company may proceed with the work.
Gangs of men were Immediately on the
ground delving away with vim and &C.
lerity which promise to have it completed
in very few days. Possibly by the mid
die of next week we shall see the jack
son railroad cars on the levee
In the course Of his remarks, in decid-
ing the question, Judge Emerson
said that we now live in an age Of
progress, and people should be prepared
for events as they come along. That he
could not see why the city and State had
not as much right to permit the Jackson
railroad cars to pass through the city as
to let the Crescent City cars or any others
enjoy the same privilege.

Miss Lottie McAlice. the winner of the
boat race at Pittsburg, is thus described by
the Commercial:
Miss McAlice, a plump girl of sixteen
looked really beautiful in her jaunty little
red jacket and white dress. Her costume
consisted Of a tight-ftting scarlet jacket
without sleeves, loose dress reaching to
her knees, white tights, and high boots.
After the race Miss McAlice pulled quietly
I'D to the shore and stepped gracefully from
the scull boat, apparently proud as an en-
press. She threw waterproof over her
head and shoulders. and made her way with
difficulty through the crowd of congratu-
ting friends up the bank, where carriage
was waiting to convey her home.

IMPROVED CONCRETE PAVEMENT,

PAGE g. CO.,
A GREAT IMPROVEMENT.

The following are a few of the reasons why this
CONCRETE should be used in preference to all
other materials:
l. 1t has been tested through of the hottest of
New Orleans summers and found not to soften By
the heat OF the sun.
D Being in general use at the North, it necessa-
riiy must be proof against cold.
s. 1t is as durable as stone and much less ezpen-
sive.
T. II is perfectly impervioris to water, and conse-
quently quickly becomes dry when wet.
s. 1t makes no dust in dry or mud in wet wea-
Their.
s. It does not creak or crumble, nor is it washed
by the rain
: 1t is impenetrable to grass, weeds or water.
g. 1t prevents noxious vapors or gases arising
from the ground beneath and affords no reservoirs
for filth or fostering decompOsitiOns.
9. 1t is laid down quickly, and ready for
when finished.
TO- 1t is easily taken up easily relaid, and easily
repaired when necessary.
Some of the places where this work has been
done, and few of the parties who have had it put
down, may be known by the following references
and most of the persons named can and will cheer
