The fair at St. Joseph's church, under
charge of Rev. Father Smith; is. not only at
tractive to visitors, but, from all appear
ances, viii. prove to be a great pecuniary
success. Crowds of people, reasonably
liberalminded, repair to the corner Of Com
mon and Derbigny streets nightly and
promenade through the aisles between the
booths, stands and stalls, stopping ever and
anon to examine and admire the fine dis
play Of attractive articles. Not the least
interesting feature of this fair is the ladies
in attendance. They are tastefully dressed,
polite and noted for fairness in their deal
ing. The fair will remain open but few
DAYS longer

RAISING THE WIND FINANCIALLY.-Last
Saturday. J. A. Hahn visited the Alicia
plantation, parish Of St. Charles, and rep
rsaented himself a. an agent for the man
ager. Calling ON the clerk, Mr.. Fouche, ne
stated that he had been ordered to draw
one hundred and seventy dollars to pay of
some hands. On this representation the
clerk handed over the money and accused
left. OF course, the victimized clerk soon
learned that he had been duped, when 10
notified his employer Of the disagreeable
fact. Officer Field being apprised that &C
cused was in the city, found him on Poy-
dras street and at once took him prisoner,
when Mr.. C. F. Blood made an affidavit en-

The jackson Raflr0ad-Thr0uGh COnnec.
lions Made Regularly.
The mails from the North and West, due
by the jackson railroad, came through Sat
urday, Sunday, and yesterday, though
necessarily behind the, andIOur latest New
York, Chicago, Cincinnati, Louisville ana
St. Louis dates are received.
We learn from General Carey, general
ticket agent of the jackson railroad, that
passengers and mails, via POntchartain rail
road and steamer to Manchac, over the
jackson and Mississippi Central railroads
have made close connections at Humboldt,
as far as heard from, and that the jackson
railroad has consequently maintained its
superiority as through route to the North
and West.
As to the time when the trains will be
resumed over that part of the road between
here and Manchac, nothing can be stated
with absolute certainty, the crevasse being
of nature so difficult to control that no one
can tell precisely when it will be closed.
Mr.. Sewall, the superintendent. General
Carey and others interested in the road,
have done everything possible to protect
the road and promote the interests of the
travelling public. Mr. Sewal is an accom-
plished civil engineer, and has given some
attention to the crevasse, but without any
materially good result thus far.
The public who are deeply interested in
the jackson railroad and it's connections
will be glad to learn that Colonel McComb,
the president OF the road, returned last
evening from Texas, and while he will
adopt all measures that can be devised to
close the .crevasse and insure the most
speedy resumption of the trains to Man
chac, he will also avail himself Of every
facility to render the route to and from
Manchac by rail and steamer pleasant,
agreeable and speedy. Trains will leave
the depot of the Pontchartrain railroad at
six o'clock A. NJ. and three o'clock p. NJ.
until further notice.

About one o'clock Sunday morning, fire
was discovered in two-story frame house
at the corner of Live Oak and Austerlitz
streets. The building was not occupied,
and that fact, in connection with another
item, leaves only one conclusion-that it
was the work of an incendiary. The house
was valued at $1,000; insured for $4,000;
owned by John Horner. The flames were
first seen in the kitchen, and as the hremen
could not obtain water, the house was COM
