The New York Worlds special CORE.
spondent gives the following account of the
arrest of O'Neil, the Fenian commander in
chief.
The general. in company with Boyle
O'Reilly, walked down the side of the-hill
and entered the par!or of the brick house,
encountering General George Foster, who,
with his deputy. Thomas Failey, of st.
Adams, was seated in the parlor. He
reached out his hand, but the greeting was
refused. and General Foster, placing his
hand on O'Neis shoulder. said: Il arrest
you, by virtue of my authority as a District
Marshal of the United States"
Sir" exclaimed General O'Neil, starting
back as he spoke, 81 shall resist your arrest"
ut will be useless, sir" replied General
Foster.
''But, sir, l am armed"
$50 am L." said the General. "John,
open that carriage door. Now, Mr. O'Neil,
get in, or | will throw you in. l am going
to take you to st. Adams, right through the
midst of your men, and il you make the
slightest cutlery will shoot you dead"
Resistance was useless, as the General
had said, and O'Neil placed himself in the
carriage ard was driven to st. Adams.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

The fraternity of New Orleans brokers
manifest the most pacific disposition TO-
ward each other and the rest of the world.
Among them, these days, there is neither
strife nor rivalry; no one tries to make
anything lest he should cause loss to a
brother financier, and this mutual gener.
osity stops trade. Luckily some of our
operators have no Office rent to pay
While the traffic in securities is at so low
an ebb, the man who carries bis office in
his hat, and records his transactions only
upon mental tablets, is to be envied by
those who keep smartly furnished, i'm
posing Offices, with store of books and
clerks to keep them.
The unfortunate death of Senator
beares, who had been good deal of an
operator upon the street from time to
time, cast a gloomy shade everywhere.
mr. beares was personally quite popular,
ana the circumstances attending his mel
ancholy endwere the topic for a deal of
comment yesterday. The impression is
strong that the whole truth has not been
made known concerning the affair, and
further developments are anxiously
awaited.
We can report Ship Island as slightly
better, though sick enough still, in all
conscience. The following sales were
made yesterday: Two hundred and 500
shares at 81, and 225 and 800 at 81 05.
At the board the feeling concerning this
stock, it was evident, had improved q

THE DOG ELEMENT,

We believe the expected dog ordinance
is still inchoate. There is decided ten.
dency in and out of municipal doors to
abstain from cruelty to dogs; while fanci-
ers of the CANNES indulge logged in
credulity in respect to the very existence
of hydrophobia. In the meantime patent
muzzles, OF Mardi Gras patterns, curionsly
made, abound in the stores. and are likely
to remain dead stock for want of buyers.
We have some secret impressions con-
corning dogs that may at this time be
appropriately aired. We are not disposed
to value dog for his collar, but for his
breeding only. One we'll bred, with affec-
tons not demonstrative, as the ours, but
who droops his head under your hand
inviting a caress, We unqualifedly recog-
nize as an object of judicious friendship.
The higher dog life is not yet, however,
sufficiently unfolded to make lavish
friendship safe. Dogs of the best record
known in canine annals must be moder-
ately petted to be kept free from. the vice
of excessive fawning. Give us such a
one, that is not passions slave, but bears
himself in becoming manner under
temptations to which fools subject more
sensible dogs than themselves, and we
will wear him in our heart of hearts-to
use familiar dramatic phrase.
But of the cur dog-support us while we
speak; the dog that keeps just beyond kick
ing distance, plying his audacious bark
until you are sensible ofintense Madness
almost of frothing at the mouth; that when
under this power of frenzy, you spring on
him retreats through an aperture and
behind some well-meaning citizens costly
fence renews his wantonness, which as to
bark, you find beyond your utmost belief
in canine talent, that keeps you perhaps
an hour under the fixed determination to
prosecute the Citizen, although perhaps
your personal friend, for feeding fostering,
fondling such a nuissnce-of this dog the
more you say the more satisfied you feel
that you have not said it effectively. 1t
is no use talking.
And this is just the dog nearly every |
body keeps-wortbless beyond all good
besides this is the dog
that calls for the ordinance with all his
power of bark, and legislation too deaf to

gress may be indicative of the growth of a
sounder and more permanent confidence
than that heretofore given the stock of the
giant monopoly: however, time will show,
and it is not hazarding much to suggest
that time may pretty fairly test the cour-
age of Slaughterhouse hackers. The fol-
lowing transactions of yesterday, in this
stock, have been reported to us: Two

DECORATION DAY.

Yesterday was the thirteth of Nav,
day set apart by common consent for deco
rating the graves of the fallen soldiers O.
the nation. Not only the people of the
several States, but the Congress of the
Union, have consecrated the day to the
observance of those rites of the dead
which a grateful people never fail to com
memorate in honor of those who have
come forth at the call of their country and
freely offered themselves as O sacrifice for
its cause
This annual ceremony was observed by
several thousand people, who began to
assemble on the time honored field of
Chalmette early in the day. A procession
was formed about twelve o'clock, in which
thousands joined, for the purpose of
marching throughout the cemetery and
strewing the graves with flowers. A national
salute was fired at the Barracks at the
same time.
The American Union Club, ever on the
alert for contributing to the success OF a
patriotic occasion, chartered a steamboat,
the Bradish johnson, to make three trips
to Chalmette for the purpose of taking
down such as had no other means of con-
veyance. But the Captain and the boat
proved entirely inadequate for the pur.
pose. The steamer could not bring back
al those who stood upon the banks and
lined the levee, waiting for chance to
return, even before the speaking began.
1t seemed to be the prevailing idea with
the mass of those on the ground that they
We're comforting special favor upon the
American Union Club, who had chartered
the steamer for their accommodation, by
being present at all, and that any quantity
OF steamboats, ought to be ready to leave
for the city at the moment they got ready
to 90 home, without regard to cost.
There were sincere, orderly, devoted
people there, who paid their silent tribute
to the departed heroes, and listened with
respect and attention to the eulogies pro-
nounced by the orators. But they bore
no proportion to the impatient many who
sought to crowd the limited steamer. with
the liberal-minded captain, who was bent
on making his one return trip, whether the
crowd got home or not. Thanks to the
persuasion of Captain Mccormack, Sec
ond trip was secured, which afforded
those who had not footed it up to the Bar
racks chance to come home on the boat.
The vacilation of the captain is to be Gen.
sured. We hope that when the patriotic,
liberal and whole-souled members of the
club next have occasion to use a steam
boat they will succeed in finding one with |
a captain who can appreciate the situa-
ton.
The principal speakers were Judge !
Dibble and Colonel Lowell. Other gen.
tleman addressed the people in appropri-
ate language and sentiments, but the two
gentlemen named made the speeches of
he occasion.
The grounds at Chalmette are tastefully
md even elegantly laid out. In the front
our heavy guns have been raised on
bases of masonry as monuments to the

memory of those who sleep in the thou
sands Of silent graves stretching back far
in the rear. The pathways are strewed
with rare flowers, and the whole cemetery
shows evidences of tender and intelligent
| care.
1t is privilege to those who rightfulfy
appreciate and sympathize with the OBJ
jects of the annual decoration, to pay these
annual pilgrimages to the graves of those
who lost their lives for their country.
They love to strew the tombs of the
departed with flowers, and listen to the
eulogies of their fame. Those who went
down on the nine and eleven o'clock boats
devoted the hours to the former, and then
joined those who came on the two o'clock
boat in the latter.
The gentlemen who had the affair in
charge are entitled to great praise for the
manner in which they performed their
difficult duties. Colonel Case, the honored
president of the club, although in feeble
health, was present, and active in promo
ting the harmony ofthe occasion. Captain
Isidore Mccormack, who had been charged
with the most irksome duty of superin-
tending the transportation, did everything
that we'll disposed, intelligent, honorable
gentleman could do, and met the many
difficulties with which he was beset with
most commendable fortitude. Captain
W. II. Hyatt, who has really had charge of
the whole cemeterey for two or three
years, was, as usual, untiring in his en-
deavors to have everything in its proper
place, and everybody at ease. To his
exquisite skill and taste we are indebted
for one of the finest. cemeteries for the
nations dead in the Union.
The grounds are at present under the
immediate charge of Sergeant Fitzgerald,
who bears the marks of honorable scars
received in his country's service, and who
feels most becoming pride in keeping
the grounds and enclosures in excellent
condition.
We shall endeavor to publish at an
early day the principal speeches delivered
on the occasion, as the crowded state Of
our columns this morning will not permit
more than this passing notice of an event
which has come to be regarded by the peo-
pie of New Orleans as one of the most i'm
portant in our yearly experience.

EDITOR REPUBLICANS:
DEAR SRA report appeared in your issue
of the twenty-seventh instant, concerning
the last trial trip of the ammonical engine,
which, by its partial statement of the truth,
may induce the public to believe that,
what was really complete success. proved
a failure. Will you please state the whole
truth, SO that the public may judge for
themselves.
On Thursday last the ammonical car hay.
ing left the depot on Canal street, came up
to Clay statue, thence back to the Gene
terry Ridge, and on its return, about one
mile from the depot, the gas gave out
simply because this being trial trip, gas
enough was not put in the reservoir to run
more than the above stated distance. Thus,
the a1nmonical Car ran 8 distance OF six
miles without the help OF any other power
than that derived from ammonia. the engine
working as smoothly and easily as deslra.
Bile, without any leakage, loss or accident of
any kind. The Car can be managed by
boy of fifteen, and all on board at the trial
trip, pronounced the ammonical Car a com.
plete and final success.
Yours, respectfully,

THE SUPREME COURT.

| LIE 0UE6606 OUU1Is
In accordance with constitutional pro
visions, this tribunal closes its sessions in
New Orleans to-day.
In noting this event, it becomes duty
we owe to the public, as faithful journal
list, to briefly allude to the many import.
ant questions that have arisen, and which
have been passed upon by this tribunal
The judiciary is essentially balance
wheel. so to speak, in our civil system,
and upon the ability and integrity of its
administration depends the safety and
permanency of society and government
1t can not be overlooked by the observ-
ing world that Louisiana occupies the
the central position in the combination of
States lately in rebellion against the gen.
eral government. Being thus located, the
rebellion was no sooner suppressed than
the process of reconstruction first took
life and form in New Orleans.
The first effort at reorganization was
made and partially effected here. Its
principal feature was the organization of
the Judiciary; and subordinate though it
was, it served to preserve in tact all the es-
tablished rules and regulations of civil Or
ganization at a time when all the powers
of civil government had been completely
overthrown and everything seemed to be
in imminent danger of complete dissolu-
ton. But when hostilities bad entirely
ceased Louisiana again took the lead in
the more difficult and important work of
reorganizing civil government in manner
to conform to the new civilization which
events had devolved upon US. In enter
ing upon this great duty her people were
animated by a broad and enlightened
spirit of patriotism, keeping ever in
view the great and fundamental prin-
ciples Of freedom, on which the
safety and perpetuity of republican
government can alone be maintained.
The close Of these labors brought into ex-
istence the Supreme Court, of which we
are now speaking. 1t requires no expla-
nation to convince every one familiar with
the times through which we have passed,
that the many difficult questions which
have arisen, and been made the subject of
judicial arbitration, have required great
research, legal talent, patient investigation
and hard work. To the legal student it is
we'll known that many of the most diff
,ult and important questions that have
arisen and been adjudicated, have been
without precedence or authority. But we
believe these dsecisions will stand the
est of time, and many of them
nave already been formally enacted into
positive law by this and other States SINH.

of the bar, and from what we
