WHAT NExT2

Through the clouds, and under the sea.
The latest news from Paris was sent in
ballon from Paris to London, and then
telegraphed by the Atlantic cable to New
Orleans. According to the New York
Herald the Prussians fired cannon at the
aeronaut which shook his balloon, but
he escaped and made his way safely to
England. AS a matter of course this
thing will be stopped. Prussia can make
ballons as fast as Paris, and We may ex-
pect soon to hear that corps of aeronau-
teal observation has been established
over Paris which will intercept these
messengers. What then will be resorted to
to send messages, for the indefatigable
press will not rest without news.

WAR ON PIG TAILS.

The Democrats are proscriptive set at
all times toward the weak In Oregon a
Democratic member of the Legislature
introduced a bill to prescribe ''caste, :"
one feature of which vas that no man
should wear queue as sign Of his re-
igion or his nationality. This was aimed
at the Chinese, because, as a general rule,
Johns weakness makes him unpopular
and easy to be imposed on. It is conf
IDENTIFY expected that this will succeed, be-
cause it is supported by a great majority
of the Democrats. These men had better
look out, for John may turn the tables on
them some day and legislate wigs and
false teeth out of use. But, in all con-
science, what earthly business has the
Legislature Of Oregon to do with the pig
tail man wears at his back?

SCIENTIFIC QUARREL.

Bishop Marvin, Of the Methodist Epls-
copal Church, delivered sermon in St
Louis, last Sunday, in which he declared
that the world was to be destroyed by
fire in five or six thousand years. He
based his proposition on the supposition
that the center of the earth was a molten
sea of burning material, according to
scientific conclusions but even if that is
not so said the Bishop, there are sutfi-
cient combustible materials on the sur
face of the earth to do the job. AS the
Bishop has put the great conhagration off
SO long, it is hardly useful for us to bother
our heads on the subject; but as he lugged
in two scientific questions, and as we are
curious on all matters Of science, we
can not let him off without asking an eX-
PLANTATION. If the earth is globe Of fire
in its centre, why is it that the artesian
we'll, $500 feet deep, in Louisville, feeds
whisky mill with water q shade cooler
than that of the Ohio river? If the earth
is to be consumed by fire from the centre
what is to become of the great waters,
which exceed the dry earth as three to
two? If there is such furnace in opera
ton in the bowels of nature, why do We
not feel its effect, and see greater evidences
of its consuming heat? 1t is not neces-
sary to get into sweat about this pro-
posed conhagration as it is so far off,
but we are very anxious to have
the philosophy of this thing explained
A book by Professor Winchell, under our
hand just now, says that before the world
can be consumed by fire, the existing con-
dition Of the atmosphere will have to be
modified. If this is so, the general de-
struction by fire will have to proceed from
without as we'll as from within. Before
five thousand years the coal beds will be
exhausted, the sulphur mines worked out,
the woods levelled, the bog converted into
homes, and the surface of the earth turned
into a kind of asbestos roofing, almost
impervious to fire. Bishop Marvin has
not calculated science according to our
books.

SIR-In your paper of this morning, in the
article entitled THE Recent HOmicides,' Oc-
cur the following words. alluding to inn
prisOnment: "And the Pierre Bertins know
how to avoid the latter. A shyster lawyer,
a writ of habeas corpus. and a properly Sc.
lected court, are sure to release him from
the grasp of the Recorders and the police,
with the outly OF small per centage OF his

VIII you do me the favor to inform Inc

ON CARONDELET STREET,

We can report but very little that will
entertain or instruct our readers, with re-
ference to yesterdays dealings. City Sc
curities continue to 60 up, and there is
even some apprehension that they are
going up too fast. However, the city can
very we'll stand the Improvement in its
credit, and no one is disposed to complain
because city seven per cent bonds are
getting near the value of city notes at tie
time the bonds were issued.
One thousand dollars new seven per
cent bonds sold yesterday at 743. and
$4,000 of the same at IS. In the present
state of the market parties are seeking
these bonds for investment, and it re-
quires no great knowledge of arithmetic,
and no extra sagacity to produce first
rate reasons for faith in the real stability
of such securities. These bonds are Sc

Of July dates, realized s9l. The city
government may feel comfortable over
these figures, and the communit. can
sympathize heartily with the feeling. It
is new thing for New Orleans to see its
credit enhancing in such style, and We
must give all honor to the men who have
brought about such condition of affairs.
One thousand dollars Metropolitan war
mnts sold yesterday at 96s, and $1,000
and $500 at 96a.

In calling the attention OF steamboat
barkeepers, liquor dealers, restaurateurs.
and steamboat BARRIERS, to the two adver-
tisements of b. Bloomfield, Esq, General
Agent of the Mississippi Valley Navigation
Company of the South and West, we en-
brace the whole merits Of their great enter
prise when we state that the principles in
volved in the construction and building of
the boat for this company are safety to life,
security to property, comfort to passengers,
and great speed, all of which have been so
completely combined that it will take
wears of improvements to cause their being
changed. This boat will have two i'm
mense low-pressure steam and condensiny
engines, as guard against explosions.
Her water pipes, hose, and water arrange
ments. are certain guards against the
possibility Of fires. The water-tight com
uartments in the hull render it utterly i'm
possible to sink her, and the steering ap-
paratus and arrangements secures her
against sllsinjuries sai15sng from handling
and making landings, which she Will dc
without having to ''round-to," thus saving
time and fuel.

AS stated above, it was no part of our
intention to convey the idea that Judge
Cooley was influenced by mercenary mo
tives. His uniform action in habeas corpus
cases is antagonistic to any such theory.
On the contrary, he is too ready to inter-
pose his judicial authority between accused
persons and a trial The result is, of course,
that they go free without suffering any
serious damage either in purse or person,
when the highest interests Of society require
exemplary punishment. His fault may
arise from his inability to understand his
judicial functions, or from a want of patient
consideration for the technical mistakes Of
the committing magistrates, but the result
is mischievous and well calculated to shake
public confidence in the ability Of the State
to enforce its criminal laws.
