WITH INTENT TO KILL.-It would appear
that human life is held in small estimation,
provided we accept the davies Of the fol-
lowing persons as true:
Edward Barlow, not the inventor of a
very poor knife, swears that Armstead
Hill actually tried to kill him, on Tchoupi-
tOulas street.
James Conner AYERS that Patrick Conneli
threatened to use glittering knife on him.
james Kitney, is positive that unless a
dignified law restraints William Crowley,
he Crowley, will of verify slay him with
dangerous weapon, tO-wit, cotton hook.
Recorder Houghton fixed on future day
for examining these cases,
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-11-08


No ORDINANCE.-Several days ago q man
was arrested on Willow street for burying
a deceased infant in the yard Of the prem
ises The mother had kept the corpse in
the house three days, being unable to pay
funeral expenses. The man was president
of some benevolent association and inferred
the body on solicitation Of the sick mother.
The examination took place before Recorder
Houghton, when that official failed to find
any ordinance or clause prohibiting the Of
Tense, consequently there is no punishment.
There is nothing but a natural custom to
govern in this or similar cases, but custom
does not prescribe or enforce penalties.
Perhaps it would be we'll for our City Coun-
Gil to enact law and fix a penalty in order
