ON CARONDELET STREET.

Trade in general showed no improve
ment nor change, and the inclemeucy Of
the weather checked all outdoor bust
ness.
There is something new in stocks.
Waterworks begins to be in demand, and
a bid Of forty-iye cents was made yester-
day for 1000 shares. This appreciation is
not by any means founded on a rock ;,
but upon suit via an injunction in ore
Of the district courts. Now, as all these
airy stocks improve faster when there is a
good deal of doubt about their realization.
the Waterworks should go up double
within the next few days. The bids were
45@5Oc share.
The long expected experiment that will
test the practical application of the
pneumatic force to the propelling power
has not come off, though the report that
the new tanks had been tried and found
wanting had been freely circulated. The
stock is again on the decline, and can be
had from IS 25@5 IS.
Levee stock stiAened yesterday, and
was quoted S6 25@6 62I. No sales are
heard Of, though several were boosted and
greenbacks shown. There appears to be
something in the wind of character to
help up the stock, but what the nature or
what the facts have not been ascertained.

A CONDITIONAL CONTRACT,

The Times is difusive, and, what is
worse, it is hysterical. The probabilities
are that We have been too hard on our
neighbor, and that as a shift it has been
forced into rhodomontade 1t offers a
proposition which We accept at once, so
far as the same is sensible, but We mus.
couple it with a sub-contract that the
party Of the second part, We being the
party Of the first part, shall stick closer
to the truth hereafter than it las hereto
fore. Governor Warnoth will Lot only
urge the enactment Of law against
bribery, but be has already done It. as
will be discovered by his message to the
last Legislature. He has, therefore, taken
the wind out Of the sails Of the Times,
for at the very moment when good ad-
vice was needed, tie Governor was giving
it and the Times was holding hack. We
shall not agree to urge the Governor to
prosecute all cases of bribery, fer that is
not his duty. 1t lis department Of justice
that belongs to the Grand Jury, and if
the people will not defend themselves, the
Governor can not defend them. Il does
not work well to mix things up in the way
the Times does when it is fustered. As to
the question of veracity, we did not
suddenly awake to the enormity of duel
ing, but we have constantly denounced
it as a relic Of barbarism, and to our
credit be it written, the REPUBLICAN is the
only paper, secular or religious, in New
Orleans that has constantly exposed the
vice and cowardice involved in the pur-
suit OF the code. In the second place.
touching the matter Of veracity, We never
asked the Governor to prosecute the party
who lately challenged him, nor did we
ask anybody to prosecute in that case
We merely called the attention Of the
Grand Jury to the facts, without even il.
viting them to do their duty. If the
Times had been less hysterical it would
have credited the Governor with having
urged the passage Of a law against bribery;
it would not have asked him to supersede
the grand juries and district attorneys Of
the State; it would not have charged US
with doing and saying things which we
mad too much sense to say or do, but |
which it Endorsed under the impression
that We had compromised ourselves by |
urging their utterance and commission.
Our explanation is candid. It Only needs
the assent Of the Times to constitute a
valid contract with US to use our voices
against dueliug.

Perhaps the Bl,'sia does rot know tie
fact, and therefore We inform If, that j.
was the Republican party which dislodged
Wicklitte in Louisiana, and it is altogether
owing to the activity of the Republican
press in New York that Tweed and Con-
molly have been brought TO Judgment.
The Democracy upheld Wickliae, ride

Republican Governor and the Democ-
racy elected and upheld Tweed until the
people would submit 10 longer. In both
cases Nemesis las assumed the form Of
Republcarism,

A contemporary, whose independence
is its boast, but whose Democracy is its
profit, rather confuses itself in writing
about New York affairs. 1t says that the
1rtbsoae has assailed the rascality Of Mr..
Tweed with great vigor, in order to OBJ
tain an advantage for tie Republican
party by laying the blame of the misdeeds
OF Iammany upon the Democracy, and
then 1t retutes this statement by declar-
ing that Mr.. Tweed is one of the largest
shareholders in the Tribune, and that for
this reason that paper had been very
silent about Tammany. We are willing
to leave 1t to arbitration if this is not
middle. If Tweed was one of the largest
shareholders Of the Tribune would that
paper abuse him? Would he consent to
be abused by newspaper in which he
was the largest stakeholder? Is it rea-
sonable that the Tribune was ignorant Of
Mr.. Tweeds rroprietorship in its publ
cation while it was abusing him daily as a
pluhderer: Is the Tines infantile, or
does il calculate upon the verdancy Of its
readers that it prints this sor: of unrea-
sonableness?

THE MAGAZINE STREET RAILROAD.

An effort is being made to obtain from
the city Of New Orleans the privilege o.
extending the Magazine street railroad
owned by Messrs. Kaiser i judi, from
Joseph to Lower Line street, in the Sixth
District. The matter has been referred te
Mr.. Rufus NAPLES, assistant city s'tor'
ney, who will, no doubt, make report
upon the subject with his usual faithful
ness. There are one or two points con
nected with this effort that need to be at
tended to. The extension Of good rail
road on Magazine street, from Joseph
street to the lower limits Of Carrollton,
ought to be facilitated, as twill intersec:
rapidly improving portion Of the Sixth
! District, and will add greatly to the con-
| venience of large settlement Of people
that is now put to great annoyance in
reaching the business portion Of the city.
All of that area bounded by Joseph street
on the lower line, Carrollton Oh the upper
line, st. Charles street on the rear line,
and the river in front, containing the
finest vacant property in the corporate
limits, and even now largely occupied
with fine houses and hundreds Of small
residences, is at present without any com
munication with the main portion Of the
city, much to its detriment. The demand
for railroad connecting with the Maya
zine line at Toledano street, should be at
tended to at the earliest convenience, both
in the interest Of the people to be imme-
diately benefited and Of the city itself.
These points being conceded, there is
something to be attended to by the city
before the right is granted. The parties
at present applying for the grant are
already in possession Of street railroad
privilege, which they have abused.
Messrs. Kaiser 4 judi hold a charter
whic h contains provisions in behalf Of
the public which they have never fulfilled.
The citizens in the Sixth District are pc
titioning against them. They have neither
kept the street in decent repair, run their
cars on time, nor laid down the regula-
ton rails. In this they have injured
themselves and the community, for with
a proper line Of railroad on Magazine
street that thoroughfare should have been
as thronged with good buildings above
Toledano street as it is below Such a
road and such managers do not commend
themselves to the city for favors, and IN
less Messrs. Kaiser Il judi propose to do
better hereafter than they have done here
tofore, the Council ought to be slow to
extend their franchises over any other Sec
ion of the city. Magazine street is too
important a thoroughtare to be subjected |
% lame and hating improvement. Tie
'efusal to accommodate Kaiser & judi
vill prompt some other road to lay down
/: track where it is now so necessary to
lave one. And yet these parties need not
'e refused if they will only come up to
heir agreement as they made it. Il is to
heir interes: to DO this, and it would GER
einly be more to their benefit TO be
'rompt and successful than TO be olsti-
late and unfortunate.

Wnat the ltnaes mas been GMIty OF IN re-
gard to our business. 1t sayE that the de-
linquent tax list was published in the
REPUBLICAN sat cost Of we do not know
how many thousands Of dollars" The
impression sought to be unfairly COM
veyed in this suggestion was, that the
city had paid Us something enormous-
say, for example, twenty or thirty thou
sand dollars-waen the truth might have
been arrived at with quite as much ease
as the editor takes when he verifes a
statement about the cotton market. He
had the law before him, being lawyer,
and the advertisement, being a publisher.
BY referring to the law be might have
ascertained the price, and being a news
paper man he might have ascerta;ned the
exact extent Of the work. A very little
trouble would have abridged the Times
OF very sensational and unpleasant. sug-
gestion, for it was certainly sensational to
be SO imaginative, and it is certainly un-
pleasant for the people to be told that
they are being robbed, when they are, in
truth, being rigidly protected. 1t is not
creditable to the newspaper press Of New
Orleans that it will discuss these questions
in such an unfair and ungenerous fashion.
1t impairs their usefulness, because the
public, seeing their recklessness Of asser-
ton daily, pay but little attention to thei.
utterances when they are really in earnest.
They would be more powerful # they were
not so violent.
