We learn from the Picayune, of the 4th, that not
wthstanding the decision lately rendered by Justice
Bradley which was construed to mean that the Slaugh
ter House Company would be debarred from taking
any active steps against the butchers until the matters
at issue between them shall have been passed upon
by the court of final resort-the Supreme Court of
the United states-an injunction had the night before
at late hour been granted by Judge Dibble, upon
application of the counsel for the Slaughter House.
This Injunction if the orders of the court complied
with will prohibit the sale of any meat that has not
been butchered at the House, and as most
of the meat used by the citizens is slaughtered by the
butchers at the Cavorac plantation, below the city,
the Picayune apprehensVe that the people would
be forced to conne themselves strictly to vegetable
diet tie next day. We await further developments
with painful interest.
It really does seem that the good people of New
Orleans manage to get up more endless suits, and
complicated litigation, than any other people on the
face of the earth-the chancery suits of England will
not bear comparison.

the property sold by the city in 1886 being still in dis
pute.
