STREET PHoroGRApHY.-The Republican
building had its portrait taken the other day
by photographed process. and the result IS
a very superior picture. Such OF the corps
editorial, reportorial, clerical and typograph-
ical as were about the establishment at the
time were ''took' along with it, and sub
mitted to the process with blushlnS resig-
nation. The appearance Of the building as
depicted, with the numerous employees
thronging the balconies, gives no uncertain
evidence of a live newspaper. In front OF
the editorial rooms one may trace the dfop'

would presume to toy with

A surpri.e Party At the Barracks.

small party of friends paid visit to
General Smith and his accomplished and
amiab!e wife, on Friday night, in their de-
lightful quarters at the barracks. Tney
were met, however, with hospitable well
come. The garrison was aroused, and the
several officers, some of whom have their
wives with. them, came promptly to the
rescue of their chief, and after most gal
liant action, which lasted some three hours'
succeeded in captivating the whole assail-
ing party. Mars and Venus have always
agreed well together, and the little affair at
the barracks was no exception to the rule.
The regimental band was sent for, and
came promptly; lights were put up along a
wide gallery, on which dancing sets were
formed, refreshments of fruit, lemonade,
etc. and a verv gay time was the result.
We believe it was matter OF some doubt
whether the guests or the hosts were the
more pleased with each other. We shall
take occasion at an early day to introduce
more fully the officers of the gallant Nine
.eenth Infantry to our readers. Most O.
them have but recently come among US, bu
they appear to be models of soldierly anc
gentlemanly qualities.

CUsTOMHOUSE RECEIPTS,
uucraasanv Pr0auorltY OF the CITY.

We are indebted to Mr.. iona c. White,
deputy naval officer, for important statls'
tics. As q matter of Information to mer-
chants and othsrs interested in the CONNER
cial prosperity of New Orleans, we annex
obtained from Mr.. White, comparative
statement of the receipts of the New Or
leans Customhouse IN gold for the months
of January, February, March. April and
May, 1869, with the receipts of the cores
ponding months of the present year, show
ing an excess of s535, 2O3 70 in favor OF
1870.
This, it must be admitted, is very fl at
tering exhibit of the increasing prosperity
of our city, and if GROWERS will only let
politics alone and go back to work in tilling
the ground instead of complaining OF COL
ored men and carpet baggers, the commerce
of the capital of the Southwest will soon be-
come what it never would have reached
with the accursed system of slavery, and
second only to New York. But here are the
iuuraa.

THE FRESH MEAT SUPPLY
CAyARCC SLAUGHTEkHOUSE SUSPENDED
SEIZURE OF MARKET CARlS
Two Hundred Beeves Hung Up

The action of the courts. restraining
other parties than the Crescent City Live
Stock and Slaughterhouse Company from
the business of slaughteripg and LANDING
beef cattle, resulted, last evening, IN the
seizure of two carts loaded with beet, be-
longing to Mr.. Stafford, of the Fulton Mar
ket, shorty after they left the Cavaroc
slaughterhouse, below the Barracks
Mr.. Stafford proposed, after the seizure,
to donate these slaughtered beeves TO cnarl-
table asylums, but this was refused ana the
beef was conveyed to Fulton Market, hung
up there and now remain there under
guard.
Between two and three hundred head OF
slaughtered beeves are hanging up in the Cav
aroc slaughterhouse, inexorable laws and
Captain Edgeworth of the Sanitary Police
positively forbidding the removal OF this Deef
to the markets.
Last evening, about eight o'clock, the fer
ryboat Jesse, Captain Chrislow, from Bob's
ferry. with from fifty to hundred mead OF
beef cattle, reached the Cavaroc slaughter
house landing, when Captain Edgeworth
| read the Injunction and the order forblddlng
| the cattle to lie landed there. But Mr.
Imbau told the Captain that he would take
the responsibility of disobedience, and the
cattle were landed.
According to present appearances, the
meat supply at the markets will be short
| this morning. though about one hnndred
and fifty head of cattle were killed at the
Crescent City Slaughterhouse yesterday
which will partially feed the city tor one
day.
There is considerable excitement among
the butchers, but there is general dlsposl-
ton to acquiesce in obedience to the law, al
expounded by the courts, and executed by
sworn officials.
Later reports are that ten beeves, valued
at $3.50, were seized by Captain Edgworth
in the two carts OF Mr.. j. Stafford, of Fulton
Market.
| II il also stated that eight hundred head
of slaughtered cattle are now hanging uE
IT the Cavaroc Slaughterhouse. valued al
100000. Butchers say that steamboats, viii
not be supplied.
It is stated that Mr.. Emley. the actine
Mayor of the city, was called on oy Mr.
stafford, and was informed by him thai ne
did not wish to proceed to violent meas n ures !.
because he understood from the Crescent
City Slaughterhouse Association that they
would be willing to give the butchers until
| next week to mature their arrangement
| Mr.. Stafford called at police headquarters
and explained to Captain George, one o.
the Polio Board. and acting superintendent,
of Police, Captain Badger, being I'LL, that
the meat would spoil if detained, where
upon an order was issued by Captain George
to allow Stafford's meat to be taken 10 1ns

The Fete Champetre at Carrollton Gar.
denO.


The energetic fair danes of Emmanuel
Church, jefferson, have voted nena con that
they require new house of worship. Their
old edifce is too small, and not located in
the right place. They want their church to
be on st. Charles avenue. To resolve is to
act with lovely woman, whose will it Is the
highest duty and chefest pleasure of man
to obey. Not only the ladies of the imme-
date church, but those belonging to neigh
boring fiocks, have embarked in the enter
prise, and they are of the quality that knows
no such word as fail. A committee ofladies
selected with view to their peculiar fitness,
has been appointed to make the proper ar.
rangements, consisting of the following:
Mrs. Morrison, wife OF the pastor; Mrs. Gar
ner, Mrs. Captain W. G. Hodges, Mrs.
Hanney, Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. Coleman, Mrs.
Bradford, Mrs. Bodley, Mrs. Burbank and
Mrs. Frye.
This committee went promptly to work,
perfected their plans and issued their mani
festo to lordly man, which the latter will
do we'll to obey. Csrrollton Garden has
been engaged. and will be turned for
series of nights into perfect bower OF
beauty, with torches, hanging lamps. flags,
flowers, and all manner of tasteful decora'
tions. A smooth plank floor will be laid
down for dancing, while there will be no
end of the most delic ious refreshments.
Jaeger's brass band has been engaged.
Aside from the objects to be accomplished,
we see sufficient inducement offered to at
tract garden full of people every night
during the continuance of the fete. 1t will
be the event of the week, to omit to see
which will be a most serious mistake.
