A NEW MOTOR.

There was no small excitement last
Tuesday on Canal street, atthe appear
ance of street car careering along down
from the horse station to the Clay statue
without horse, mule, or any other draft
animal bearing affinity to the genus
Equus attached to it. Had there been
any smoke or fz-fz about it, people
would have supposed that steam engine
had been attached to car to make it
move, instead of a mule or horse; but
there were. none of the indications that
belong to the steam motor, and those who
witnessed the car which went by itself
were compelled to find some other solu-

self in idle and proftless ease. unthink-
ing and inactive, than he can live upon
maccaroni. His constitution requires
.activity for the mind as much as it does
healthy aliment for the body. The differ
ence between his organization and that of
the Hamburg banker is that one studies
the passions of the people, and the other
| watches the movements that affect the
| financial situation. AS there is but
little room for Rothschilds in the
world, there is less for kings in Germany.
This contraction of the field to few
| operators makes it necessary for one man
to serve the banker as head clerk, while
it opens place for only one man as prime
minister to the emperor. Perhaps the
best man in the bank is not its owner, as
we sometimes see that the chief lace in
the palace is not filled by the ablest
thinker. Rothschild, however, pockets
the profits just as King William does.
Neither consents to pay extravagant sala-
ries, because they consider, probably,
that the service which they obtain could
be done as well by others. There are two
advantages in the German system which
we must all admit, which are, it ightens
the burdens of the PEOPLE and it fails to
create that love Of money which tempts
so many officers to their ruin. 1t is a rule
that the simple, honest salary is the
safest for the State, because it secures
just as competent service, and it
does not tempt the public servant
into ostentatious displays. The principle
that prevails in Germany is, that there is
no difference between serving the State
and working for private individuals. In
fact, if there is any difference, it is in
favor Of the man who abstains from gov
eminent employ. In England the rule is
the reverse-that the general run of en-
ployes under the government have less
work and more pay than similar employees
engaged by private individuals. The
effect is to create a morbid desire for
service under the government, and this
leads hundreds Of people to waste days
and months in the search after that man
ner of service Another effect is, that it
creates a class of laborers in the commu-
nifty who are vain enough to consider
themselves better than their fellow men.
Seeing this, it would be better if the
English papers advocated the introduce
ton of the German plan into England,
rather than the expectation of the English
plan into Germany.

TO THE PUBLIC.

Act No 102 of the General Assembly authorizes
the New Orleans Sanitary and Fertilzing Company
to charge ONE DOLLAR per box for furnishing de-
odorizing material and removing the boxes.
The Board of Directors, finding the company
will be amply remunerated by reduction of said
charges, and wishing to encourage the general
adoption of the dry earth closet system in this
city, and place it within reach of all, have decided
not to exact the price allowed by law, and have
established the following tariff of charges viz:
For removing single box, fifty cents cash.
TOT ten llChtIs.. 5 %
TOT twenty llCholS'.- b w

A somewhat disorganized correspond
| ent of a prominent Democratic organ in
the West, to wit: the Louisville Courier
Journal, writing from Texas, reports that
the State is now in the enjoyment of unin-
terrupted prosperity manufactures going
up, thirteen railroads in process of con-
struction, the crops large, the people
tolerably peaceful, and plenty Of money
in circulation. All right so far. He then
proceeds to say that the Radicals have
had control of the State for two years,
but that at the next election the Democ-
racy will wipe out the carpet-baggers and
scallawags as with sponge. Congress-
man Corners, gentleman of some ability,
who went to Texas with a squad of United
States troops four years ago, but who
snapped off his military position for a
Democratic nomination to Congress, in
which he was successful, is the great gun
who is to destroy the Radicals and
extirpate the interlopers. It is not often
that we pay attention to these
rosy pictures, as they are painted
by the opposition, but this one is so de-
fective in its assimilation of colors that
we can not refrain from giving it an over
hauling. In the first place, take the pic
ture of prosperity and progress which is
painted of the State, and then answer US
if the very points set forth upon the can
vas are not enough to reconcile any SEN
sible people to the Republicans? What
more could the Democrats have done than
is presented in the rising factories, teem-
ing industry, projected railroads, and uni
versal prosperity that prevails? Why
should any people, in the. enjoyment of
such good fortune, seek to change their
rulers? Let them look to the record.
What did the Democrats ever do for the
State? Under their dominion there was
not factory in existence, and the rail-
roads were feebly and badly man
aged. The attempts to construct roads
from Houston to Austin, from In
uldHOlA W Eodu AutOulO, lIOul lHS
Sabine to Buffalo bayou, were all
failures. The Democracy never helped
Texas in single particular. The Repub
licans have created prosperity in every
direction. Even in Corners, who promises
so much, the Texans have a carpet-bag-
ger for leader, and their proposed action
is directed to the overthrow of O party
which has held power only two years, to
the vast and admitted advantage of the
State. Houston itself, from which this
appeal enanates, had to depend upon a
Republican Legislature for the law which
allows her to dig ship canal to Calves
ton bay, whereby the largest vessels that
cross the bar can ascend Buffalo bayou. We
ask again, what sense is there in this de-
mand for q change of rulers? Why should
people living in the very midst of progress
demand to be put into that keeping
which never advanced foot when it was
in power? If the Texans can explain
this demand, upon reasonable grounds,
we should like to hear them do it.

Having obtained an introduction to the
entire family of mythology yesterday, in
order to clear up q statement of fact as
to the identical heather who did run
away with the sun, we are constrained to
admit that Ixion was not the man, but
his Legitimate relative, Pheton, was the
unfortunate. The difference between
these two Greeks was this, that Ixion
was fastened in hell to fiery wheel for
having boosted of his intimacy with Juno,
while Pheton was drowned in. the river
Eridanus as the result of his reckless
driving. This is the report of the gods.

A singular fault is found to exist in Ger
many, according to the English papers, that
the officers of the government are not re-
positions as reward for valuable services.
Is there any reason why a man who serves
the state ought to be paid larger salary
than the one who serves an individual? Is
1t any greater strain upon Count Bismarck
to preside over the nation than it would
be to preside over great banking or bust
ness house? fit is not, then why should
the government pay him more than Roths-
child would? His mental faculties require
thought. he can no more dispose him
