THE OLD AND New CANALs.-The Plcdv-
me says: The strong cas-. wind that has pre-
vailed for the last three days has had the
effect of rising the old Pontchartrain by
blowing the water of the Cult and the
Sound through the riggolets, and by check
ing the out ward flow Of the fresh waite
rivers emptying into Lakes Ponchartrain and
Maurepas. The effect has been to back up
the water in the canals to within one foot
nine or ten inches of storm water. The
levees along the canals are in good con-
dition, and but little fears are entertained OF
an overflow. The following order, however,
was issued this morning:
SURVEYORS OFFICE,
New Orleans, March Is, 1870.
Mr. O. A. johnson, Superintendent:
You will see that every point along the
protection levees is well secured. Examine
the dams in the City Park, and the levee
along the New Canal, from the Metairie
Ridge into Galvez street, and report to this
office if the earth is being removed, and by
what authority. Should the wind continue
from the east, prepare to close the gap at
the timber ways on the old Canal. You Will
also notify the foremen to have their men
in readiness for any service that may be re-
CURED.
Respectfully,
WI. BELL, City Surveyor.

A FUTILE ATTEMPT TO LEVY BLACKMAIL.
A Silent Reoenger Of Womdn's Wrongs
A rather spicy case is gradually revealing
itself in the First District Recorders Court.
On the twelfth instant Isidore Loewengardt
engaged in Camp street store, not far from
Canal street, made an affidavit, which reads
IS follows:
That on Friday, March II, Charles R.
Metz presented to affiant forged paper.
signed Paulina, representing Paullna New
berger, and did then and there try to Intln-
idate and defraud deponent.'
Loewengardt asserts that Paulina, who, by
the way, can be found in house at the cor.
ner OF Cont and IRENE streets. never wrote
The aforesaid note, which is copied as fol-
lows verbatim
"Mr. Isadore Van having abused me
while whas sick in bed, therefore will let
you know that will, although sick, but de-
.ermined to do what have promised you,
the child will bring to your store, just in
time when the store is crowded Ito put you
10 shame and disgrace). you have acted
mean and contemplate. i Will show you
that have more honor about NE than you
have, although disgraced, dishonored by
your vile promises, will have satisfaction
PAULINA"
On the back ofthis was writer:
You will remember me, and you will
never do what you have done TO me = -
20 others. This is my friend tnat deIiVers
this letter"
The other note is as follows:
"Mr. Isidore-My friend told me that you
cowardly dog wanted to see me. Come and
do it you rascally scallawag, am prepared
for YOU; your days are mum bered and your
taA no sjtn af
your cares is at end. Beware that you
are in the house early in the evening. let
me tell YOU my name is Shoofy, and ann
not afraid of you -. Beware, Will meet
YOU some time or another, respectfully tn
see YOU -. When we meet Will
revenge the rongs you have done towards
that poor woman; no not woman, butt a
poor girl; you have thoughtto Bully her, but
will come to her assistance, will eEd my
life for her sake, for she is helpless; Will
stand for you some fine evening when you
least expect me; you see me every day, out
will lwatch my opportunity: VIII De as
friendly as can bee, but time WILL tel. AN
not dam jew like you"
These letters were given to Mr.. Loewen-
gardt, at the Camp street store, and not be-
ing particularly pleased with the tenor, or
wishing to be blackmailed by Metz, he IN
CURED if the Paulina in question had writ
ten the first note. The dulcinea denied the
writing, but said the hand was very IKE
love letter she once received and still re-
tanned. Producing it, they discovered that
they were quite similar in appearance. Thls
discovery led to the imprisonment of Metz,
and yesterday he was sent down to the Grim
inal Court for trial, on q charge OF forgery
by Recorder Becker.
