DIR PUBLIC SQUARES,

1t is deal more pleasant to praise than
find fault, providing praise is deserved.
But when fault pervades our most public
places and impudently stares at our pub
lie officials without danger of molesta-
ton, it becomes the duty of the public
journalist to speak of it. In the absence
of public parks as places of resort, where
our people could breathe the fresh air of
heaven and feast their eyes on the fresh
ness and beauty of vegetation, New Or
leans has been content with her public
squares. Formerly much pride was ex-
hibited in keeping them in most excellent
order, and they were the favorite resorts
of the children of the neighborhood.
Here, in the afternoon, they would con-
gregate, accompanied by their nurses,
after they had been clad in clean suits,
and prepared for gambol on the green
sward. The tidy appearance of the
squares and the bright faces of the
jubilant little ones made up pleasant
scene that often proved attractive to grown
up people. But the scene is changed.
Lafayette square, that used to present this
beautiful appearance, has of late materially
changed. And, we are sorry to say,
this change has taken place under Re-
publican administration, and right under
the nose of sharp scented, keen sighted
Mayor, who is always on the alert to find
fault Instead of the order and beauty
that once characterized the square that
faces the City Hall, and is faced by the
City Fathers at least dozen times day,
we have the reverse of it. The once hand
some iron seats that were erected for the
convenience of visitors are fast going to
ruin; and among the trees, in the square,
that face st. Charles street and peer into
the Mayors parlor, is one that presents
a contrast sufficiently strong to attract
the attention of every passer by; and yet
it has evidently escaped the vigilant eye
of Mayor Flanders. If he had Glanced
to see it in his early morning pilgrimages
to the City Hall, it is quite certain he
would have had the tree removed for being
out of season. The grass, too, has an un-
even and disorderly look, and in
stead of the square being the delight
full resort for children and decent
folk that it was in former days,
it is now the resort of dogs, goats, and
a hard looking set of "old soaks," who
are often seen stretched upon the seats,
fearfully adding to their dilapidated ap-
pearance We know that this is a gross
perversion of the uses of the square; a
violation Of its proper condition. We
don't know whose especial duty it is to
remedy the evil, or under whose care
the square has been permitted to fall
into such bad order, but do know that its
present condition is disgrace to thecity
Jackson square is also neglected 1t
does not present the handsome appear
ance it did when it came into Republican
hands. We want our public squares at
tended to and made ornaments to the
city as we'll as sources of pleasure to the
people. 1t will not cost much to do this,
and they should not be neglected. When
they are they become eyesores to our
own people, and create bad impressions
n the minds of strangers.
