TO pronounce that Mr.. NircuELLg's is fully
equal in all respects, if not superior. Do.

LETTER BOXES IN THE STREET
CARS.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
This being the age Of progress, allow me
to suggest to You an idea which flashed
through my mind as l stood gazing at the
letter boxes which have recently been at
tached to the lamp-posts.
% l think it would be greatly to the interest
of the people of New Orleans if some of the
letter boxes were fastened ON the side or in
the rear next to the door) of our street
railroad cars, so that if a person living at
the Halfway House, or on Louisiana ave-
nue., or at the Barracks-all he would have
to do if he desired to send letter off would
be to 90 up to the first street car and drop
the letterIn the box attached to it, and in the
course of half an hour it would be at the Clay
statue The Postoffice Department could
keep man employed there to open these
boxes, and dispatch the letters to the Post
office. AS all the cars centre on Canal
street, it would be, very convenient ar
rangement, both for the public and for the
Postofice Department. think that for a
slight compensation the street railroad COM
panies would be willing to have these boxes
placed on their cars. This is my idea; you
can take it for what it is worth. E. r.

BENEFICIARY CADETS,

We learn that there are six or seven va
cancies in the list of beneficiary cadets to
which the parish Of Orleans is entitled in
the Louisiana State University. The APP
pointments are by the law vested in the
Board of Directors of Public Schools of
New Orleans. The qualifications are a
knowledge Of mathematics, geography and
grammar. To become beneficiary cadet
il is necessary to show that the applicant
is unable to pay for his tuition. Every
thing necessary is furnished free, except
clothing, which is of uniform pattern,
and will be furnished at the University at
cost, or about fifty dollars. One-half of
this amount must be paid in advance, and
time will be allowed for the remainder.
1t is estimated that each pupil will require
about two dollars per month in pocket
money.
These are the general terms, which can
be complied with by almost any young
man desirious of becoming cadet. But
lueTe Is Ill SlOIo lOl liO upl 'AAc"iie ~ AiOAN1
examination which many find it difficult
to pass with credit. Others are unable
to keep up with the classes, and after a
few months spent in useless toll ard vain
| effort, are sent home. That there may be
no failures Of the kind, Superintendent
D. F. Boyd, recommends that the appli-
cants be subjected to competitive ex-
| animation, and selections be made from
those who can show the highret pro-
fciency. There are already several appli-
cants before the board, but not enough to
discourage others from making an at
tempt, if so disposed. AS the sugges-
tons of Professor Boyd come from a
gentleman thoroughly familiar with the
system of tuition, and withal, one whose
whole heart is in the work in which he is
engaged, they will naturally have great
weight with the board in making selec'
tons. Influence is not required, and
will not be of any use. Any boy, how
ever poor or friendless, provided he have
the talent, may ask, and will be preferred.
AS rule, the selections should be made

TEkEL: OR. Cora GLENCOE.-By Bragan-
"a. Same publishers.
The author is lady, the work novel,
and the argument an attempt, apparently
to elevate" the softer sex by making men
of them as nearly as may be. AS contro-
yersial work it is amusing, as narrative
entertaining, and as an attempt to reverse
the laws of nature as successful as IL Is
possible to be.
