ON CARONDELET STREET.

The action of the Senate on Friday
light, in relation to the new slaughter
house bill had been generally anticipated
on the street, and it therefore occasioned
no surprise. Tie prevailing idea is, that
| the Governor will veto the BILL but the
hope is very slender that executive inter
position can avail anything against what
is supposed to be the determination of
the Legislature. Hence, the stock is not
held with reference to any such contin-
gency. Some persons think that the
courts Will nullity the new act, on the
ground that it divests vested rights, and
others maintain that the company can
still DO remunerative business, even if it
loses its exclusive privileges. The course
of the stock Yesterday was still downward,
and repor IS were circulated that it had
sold as low as 10. This, however, could
not be traced to any authentic source.
Indeed it is scarcely possible to give any
Probably II may be considered the figure
at the close. There have been some
heavy sufferers by this sudden collapse,
and general feeling Of insecurity has
pervaded the street, causing a sympa-
thet;c depression Of the whole line of
what are called fancy stocks" While
this. feeling exists, the street is in no humor
for speculation and the most tempting
opportunities are passed by UNDECIDED
Sulphur stock has not responded to
the last kilograms, even though it is GER
tain that the famous sulphur bed has
again been reached.
There are rumors that Pneumatic stock
is again to come before the public, in con-
sequence Of some experiments which, it is
anticipated. will be favorable.

even has tendency to advance.

The temperance organizations of New Or
leans appear to be making preparations to
keep pace with the progress Of the times.
They are arranging to bring the subject OF
abstinence in relation to ardent spirits pro.
mincntly before this community by holding
a series OF meetings, the first of which will
take place tomorrow evening, at the Bible
House. on Camp street, between Girod and
Julia streets. Those who have not attended
a meeting Of this description can hardly
imagine how interesting they are. 1t is so
much the habit to connect the idea of social
enjoyment with the imbibation of strong
liquor, that persons who attend these meet
ings are astonished to see how much ,joviaity
can be got ont of cold water. 1t will be
worth while to attend any Of the tenn
perance meetings at the Bible House.

me, have sought in vain through months ard

A POLITICAL REVELATION.

Some skepticism having been expressed
relative to our assertion that the Southern
Democracy was being tempered with by
Tammany Hall, it becomes us to be watch.
full for outward proofs as to the correct
ness of our declaration The evidence
that first satisfied our unsuspecting minds
can not be used to enlighten the general
| public, for editors are forced occasionally
to ferret ont facts by "ways that are dark
and tricks that are peculiar. This in
formation is costly, and it must be used
with caution, for the opposition is liable
| at any time to suspect and detect the
agents that supply us with their secrets
All that We can do is to throw out general
charges that such and such measures are
imminent in the near future, from the
very nature of things, and then follow up
our general attack with the evidences OF
our correctness as they accumulate in the
proper development Of the campaign.n
When John T. Hoffman declined to be
nomination, we asserted, on our private
knowledge of certain facts, that this re-
nunciation of his opportunity was only
one of Caesars negatives, and that when
the crown was thrice offered it would
be accepted. We further asserted that
part of the programme was to administer
d, Al ~ lnt4,
until Tammany could manipulate the
patient. The South prefers Hancock or
Hendricks, and New York knows this fact.
She also knows that the only way to di-
yorce the South from the West is to de-
ceive her While Hoffman was in the
field he was an antagonist By withdraw
ing his name now the Democratic dele
gates will be allowed to go to the
convention unrestricted, and Tam
many can then tamper with them
OH the subject Of availability,
oysters, etc The ballotings will
be divided between Ohio and Indiana I'M
til Hendricks and Pendleton are both too
weak to go through the race, and then
Tammany will trot out Hoffman as she
did Seymour, and carry off the prize. All
this has been explained in these columns
heretofore, coupled with the assertion that
the agents of Tammany were busy in the
South trading the Southern Democrats
out Of their Western preferences.
As an evidence that our information is
correct, we present three or four facts. |
The Atlanta Democratic organ has lately |
pledged Georgia to the support of Hof
man, and declares that he must be made |
to run. In Alabama the Mobile Register |
is offered for sale, Mr.. Mann probably
preferring not to suffer defeat in the in
terest Of Tammany, if he can dispose Of
his Office to some less scrupulous man.
In Louisiana these powerful molders of
public sentiment, the Shreveport Go-stte,
the Alexandria Democrat and the Clai-
borne .4drocate. all strike in regular order
the Hoffman key note. Are these signs
not sufficient to establish the truthtulness
Of our original statements? 1t is inpossi-
Die to deduce from circumstantial evil
lence clearer case OF conspiracy against
he West than these facts declare.
