the contingency is one orproIound interest

there derives much of its impulse and

Death Of Judge George r. Carr,

Shortly before one o'clock this morning
the Associated Press dispatches brought
the sorrowful and melancholy intelligence
to us of the sad death OF Hon George p.
Carr. parish judge of St. John the Baptist
parish, who left this city ON the jackson
railroad train at seven o'clock yesterday
morning. The dispatches describe the
sad details and cause of his death.
Mr.. Carr was young man. not tar from
thirty years of age, and was, we believe. a
native of Massachusetts. The intelligence
of his sudden death will be painful news to
Lis friends, of whom he had great numbers
in the State. Mr.. Carr was an ex-soldier,
and served with distinction in the Union
army. He was true, active and influential
Republican, and like other genial young
men he Lad won the confidence and esteem
of many influential gentlemen whose prei,,-
dices were hostile to him politically. His
death is one of the saddest occurrences we
have lately been called on to record

Louisiana Politics.

We copy the sHbjOined extract Of a New
Orleans letter to the Cincinnati Ga=ctte:
The war of the opposing sections of the
Republican party continues to be waged
with much bitterness. Thus far Governor
WarmOth and friends have had everything
their own way; and, unless the opposition
to him shall be more compact and more
ably led than hitherto, the State or Gov
ernOr's party will continue thus to have it.
The death of Lieutenant Governor Dunn,
OF the opposing section, and who wished
very much to sit in the Governors seat,
even before the law fully gave him that
power, very much weakened the anti-War-
moth party. Without having any very
clearly defined constitutional or legal right
las his opponents claim). the Governor
called an extra session of the State Senate,
which elected Mr.. Pinchback, an able col
Ored Senator, and friend of the Governor,
its President and Lieutenant Governor.
Considering everything, and particularly
the indefinite character of the law on the
subject, the experiment was very bold and
very hazardous. but it was triumphantly
successful. The only question is as to
whether the Governor had authority, from
the provisions of the State constitution and
laws OF Louisiana, to convene the Senate
separately in extra session at all. The
right is certainly implied from the duty
which the Senate is bound to perform. The
language of the statute is, In case Of
vacancy in the Office Of Lieutenant Cover
nor. the Senate shall elect President, who
shall be Lieutenant Governor The time
draws near for the assembling of the State
Legislature. If Mr.. Pinchback's election
be sustained the supremacy of the Cover
nOrs friends in the Senate will be estab-
lished, and the adoption Of his measures of
reform secured. Ii not. look out for tie
ascendency of Democratic rule.
Lieutenant Governor Piuchback is an
ADLER man as adebater than his predecessor
Dunn, and as he does not lose his right on
the floor as member of the Senate by be-
coming its president and eX-OtficiO Lieuten-
ant Governor, he will be an able auxiliary
to the Governor upon all questions to be
discussed; although, from his known indie
pendence of character, he will never be the
tool of any one, as his opponents falsely
charge he will; nor will he attempt to
usurp the seat OF the Governor so that it
will continue to be, as it has been, the ad-
ministrarion of Henry Clay Warmoth alone
although for time it seemed to be of War
moth and Dunn. When Caesar and Bibulus
were co-consuls OF Rome. the former as
sumed all the duties, so that the wags of
the day. instead of writing I'm the year OF
Caesar and Bibulus, cOnsuls.' used to say,
'In the year of julius and Cesar, consuls."
So may they write here, if they wish to
couple two names, During the administra-
tons of Henry Clay and of Warmoth," for
no other man will be Governor, and think
him able and strong enough to put down all
opposition he may encounter He will
carry measure after measure. possibly
without much scruple as to the means, but
all for the benefit OF the people whom he
governs.

Tie. steamship Hansa. with Four Hun.
dred and Twenty Passengers. En-.
counters n Storm and Breaks Her
Rudder in llid-Ocean.
From the New York World.

The steamship Hansa, of the North Ger
man Lioyds. arrived at this port yesterday
after long and perilOus voyage. Leaving
Bremen at noon of November "a. with
thirty-tive cabin and three hundred and
eighty five steerage passengers, she reached
southampton on the twenty elghth, and the
prospect for a fine passage seemed good.
On leaving Southampton she was driven
before strong east and southeast winds .or
five days. when she encountered a heavy
storm from the northwest. III latitude 1916
and longitude 3S.5b The sea was fear
fully high and it was IA late hour before
the passengers could trust themselves to
sleep
At midnight terrible discovery was
made. The rudder, which had been strug
Cling with the waves for fifteen hours. was
broken Just below the tattral. A night of
dreadful suspense was passed. and on the
following morning one OF the Allen line
steamers came in sight. The gale was still
blowing as hard as ever. The accident to
the llansa was signaled to the other
steamer. and soon the welcome stranger
was alongside. The captain of the Allen
steamer was asked to stay and keep com
pany until the Hansa was out of trouble.
which request was quickly granted. The
crew then Went to work and tried 10 ri- &
Jury rudder. but with poor success. es the
sea was running high.
On the night of the fourth OF December
the Allen was still keeping company. but
on the following morning the Hansa found
herself alone again. the weather having
moderated little, The Hansa then pushed
ahead and Tor three hours she was working
through a fog. At Ii 4. II. it cleared up
again. and the temporary rudder was doing
very well, the storm having subSi,ied. At
! L. NJ. about three hundred miles from
Newfoundland, the liansa was boarded by
the steamer Manhattan. hence for Liver
pool. The captain OF the outward bound
vessel was asked to accompany or tow the
Hansa to st. Johns, which was refused.
The captain OF the Manhattan offered.
however, to tow the Hansa TO Liverpool,
which was declined as being impracticahle.
The disabled steamer then proceeded
alone on her perilouS journey. and hv care

Cape Spear Light at ) A. NJ. of December

was boarded by pilot, and after sail of

THE CITY HALL.

The chief topic about City Hall matters
is still the railroad ordinance, which, as pro-
posed, grants to the company the use of
passenger depot on the grounds bounded
by Canal, Delta and Poydras streets, the
use OF freight depot on the space bounded
by Girod, Water and Calliope streets, and
the right to use the batture property on a
line over three hundred and fifty feet be-
low Calliope street. Besides, tho grants by
the State are ratified in the ordinance, pro-
vided no street shall be closed, no track to
be laid between those now down and the
waterside. and that the whole shall be null
and void if the road to Sabine is not laid as
we'll as the one to Shreveport: within the
time specified in the acts comforting the
grants. The outlines of the ordinance have
been under consideration for three days.
and in special session yesterday the
consideration of the ordinance was still
further postponed. 1t appears the section
Of the charter relied upon by the opponents
to the ordinance. provides that any ord-
nance, having for its object the sale Of real
estate or the levy of taxation, shall not
pass except 1t be read during two regular
meetings. AS the proposed ratification of
the legislative grants has been the subject
Of varying opinions for some time. and as
every one expected the law would pass yes
terday, it was with no small degree of sur
prise the postponeinent was received. In
the meantime, say the friends of the meas
ure, the Legislature Will meet and :'knock
things endways," still further delaying the
road to Texas, SO anxiously awaited by the
whole community.
The Halls like "a banquet hall deserted
were it not for clerk who now and then
comes out, looks around. and then softly
disappears. The great throrg that once
beset the corridors have now too much at
tention for tie Legislature to be waiting
about the institution.
