benighted neighbors, the Algerines, residip :
on the other side Of the river, in what is
known az the Fifth District of New Orleans,
will be delighted to know that there is a
proposition before the Council to give them
light.
Our friends over tie river have long
CROPPED in an almost Egyptian darkness, all
on account of the expense Of lighting up
with gas; but now that they have been in
corporated into and become part Of this
great city, they exclaim: "If Caesar can
hide the sun from Us with blanket, or put
the moon in his pocket, We will pay Linn
tribute for light" In other words, they are
willing to pay their portion Of the expense.
The ordinance has been referred to Il e
Administrator Of Accounts, Mr.. Alfred Shaw.
and to him must the Algerines apply for
their locked.for enlightenment. Mr.. Shaw
is to them What Juliet in her bower was to
the love-lorn Romeo. when he exclaimed:
But soft what light through yonder window
breaks
1t is the east and Julie. is the SUM-
Mr.. Shaw, from his unpoetical bower in
the City Hall, will give them all the light
they may want.
