The grand drawing of the single number
tickets, Louisiana State Lottery, is an event
of considerable Importance to large por-
ton of the community, for there are many
who buy tickets for twenty dollars, any one
of which is liable to draw the capital prize
of fifty thousand dollars. There are only
twenty thousand single numbers, and since
it costs only twenty dollars to buy a
ticket with the chance of winning the CAPT
tai prize of fifty thousand dollars, of course
there is a grand rush just prior to every
grand drawing. In these times when fifty
thousand dollars is huge amount of money,
it is not surprising that people compare
lively poor should be governed by an in
tense desire to try their luck, and improve
their fortunes. The grand drawing will take
place tomorrow at eleven o'clock, and the
public are invited to witness it. To-day is
the last chance to invest twenty dollars
with the hope of winning fifty thousand

THE TEACHERS, INSTITUTE In THE
FIRST DIVISION.


Especial Correspondence of the Republican,
ANTE, June Ia, 1871.
Our institute closed tonight after high
" interesting session, which was attended
not only by many teachers OF the public
schools of several parishes of the first di-
vision, but also by some of the teachers of
the private schools and many of the citizens
of Amite.
The session to-day was opened by an ex-
cellent address from DR.. r. c. Richardson,
the division superintendent, in which he
briefly, but clearly, set forth the history,
work and recognized Importance of teach
ers' institutes. He dwelt upon the neces-
sity of securing cordial cooperation of the
teachers with the school directors and with
each other in the work of public education,
and very clearly showed how teachers in
stitutes and associations brought about this
very desirable result when attended by
teachers who are imbued with the right
spirit and who appreciate the duties of their
high calling
This was followed by an interesting les
son in arithmetic and the methods of teach
ing it, conducted by Miss Hattie N. Morris.
The simplicity of the methods presented by
our earnest and accomplished instructress
and their evident superiority over our usual
plan of teaching this science led to a very
animated discussion of the subject of teach
ing arithmetic.
Our afternoon session occupied nearly
four hours during which methods of
teaching reading and elocution, geography
and English grammar were presented and
discussed. One exercise in grammar was
especially interesting and the discussion of
this topic was participated in not only by
the teachers but by others present.
We were also greatly pleased with our
exercises ia reading, for teaching which
Miss Morris seems prominently qualified.
Her reading is by far the finest we ever
heard, and her method of teaching this
branch was well illustrated and will be
soon put in practice in our schools.
At the close of the session we enthusiast
tically passed a vote of thanks to Miss
Morris, and another earnest resolution, re-
questing the State Superintendent of Edu-
cation TO secure the services of this able
| teacher for our next institute, was also
carried with enthusiasm.
A committee. consisting of one teacher
from each parish of the division, with Su-
| perintendent Richardson as chairman, was
appointed to make arrangements for another
institute, to be held at an early day. After
which we adjourned, with only the regret
that our institute was of such short duration.
| During Miss Morris brief stay with us she
was most cordially received by ouI people,
and the recipient of kind attentions from
some of our leading citizens.

Aquatic Calculations.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
Pardon my intrusion On your Valuaole
space, but can not resist the temptation 10
correct calculation or estimate 1 ind In
some of the city papers, OF the quantity OF
water said to be contained in the inundated
part of the city. The statement-for it is
not n calculation-is based upon the sup
position that two and a half square miles
were covered at an average depth OF four
feet. and is said to contain I,600, 0OO, 600
gallons, which is a very long way from a
correct statement Surely, if there is any
object to be accomplished in making such
estimates, they should approximate to the
truth. Assuming that two and "a half square
miles were covered at an average depth OF
four feet, there would be contained in that
space 2,0S5, 449, 142 gallons, which quantity
of water, if q, 1000, 900 gallons per day were
pumped out, would take nearly eleven days
to get rid of. Some days ago, when the use
of the fire engines was first suggested,
made calculation for the purpose OF
judging how much water would have to be
moved and how far relief might be ex-
pected from that. source. estimated that
there were five square miles covered at an
average depth of two feet, which gives
precisely the same result as two and halt
square miles at depth of four feet. There
is one good result to be expected from
| consideration of the quantity of water; II
may lead to a careful consideration of the
power and capacity of the machinery re
| quisite for an efficient and etfectual drain
age of the city when We shall have good
levee on the lake shore that will keep out
the lake water. With your permission
may return to the subject of drainage in 6
