IGNoBLE FATE.-Perhaps in no one
port in the world was ever seen such a
gathering of vessels of every patton as the
harbor of San Francisco presented in 1S49
aud so. Vessels f ,ated there-time-hon.
ored relies of the past-stauuch, strong
built ships, clippers, barks, brigs and
schooners sailed there and anchored, never
to leave the harbor again sunk to fill water
lots or dismantled and torn up for their
wood or metal. One of these, the .mer-
chant vessel Cadmus, in which La Fayette
sailed from Havre on his last visit to
America, landed at New York August
10th, 1924; was here torn asunder; the
planks La Fayette trod, the polished satin
wood of the state-room he occupied, were
used to build fires beneath the kettles of a
Chinaman's wash-house.

The Radical City Council Of New Orleans
might give lessons in rascality, it seems, to
their political brethren OF the South Caro-
lima Legislature. A big job is before the
Council, in the shape Of an extension, and
lease, OF the water-works, by which the city
will be leeced out Of two million dollars
and the water-works already in existence.
One member has received 100000, in
stock, for his vote, and another was offered
a sum which would make him independent
for life. No wonder that the belief obtains
that the scheme will pass Perhaps the
Radical press will now devote to the New
Orleans Radical city government little OF
the virtuous indignation which they pour 30
plenteously upon the heads OF the New York
Democracy.
