latest papers. or that stand up until twelve
o'clock at night reading the illuminated
bulletin boards for news. . A quiet little

OF our people can spare the money to buy.
They need too many drinks during the
day to multiply expenses in buying pa
pers. Thus one-half of them do not read
English, and three-fourths do not read at
all. And about one-haf of those that
can read prefer the Ledger or the Weekly,,

compiler of the article in the Bulletin was
about right when he advertised in fam.
ing headline that New Orleans was not
settled by reading people. It lisa solemn
fact, and it is to our shame that the pub
icatios has been made, and that it is so
full of truth.

While the correspondent of the New
York World was picking up scandal ubout
matters and things in Louisiana as to the
process BY which corrupt measures were
passed through the Legislature. would it
not have been we'll to dovetail his stories
with some indication as to the parties that
held the conversation which he reports,
and especially with regard to the men who
proposed to do the buying of legislative
favors There is always two sides to
every question. Men do not sell them
selves without they can ind purchasers.
The World is not the first discoverer of
these indefensible transactions. In fact its
report may be found outlined in the REpuB-
IIcAS on divers and sundry occasions; and
particularly was the entire arrangement de-
fined and exposed in conversation
which occurred last year between an i'm
posing committee of citizens and Gov
ernor Warmoth, wherein the latter ex-
planned to the entire satisfaction of the
public and the committee that the fault
OF bad legislation was more properly to
be charged to certain highly respectable
people than to the members of the Legis-
lature. If the World is anxious to print
the original and almost official exposure
OF the process by which the State has
been afflicted with the special legislation
OF which it complains, in the interest of
political morality and reform, it can not
do this better than to publish Governor
Warmoth's ''talk" to the committee of
one hundred that waited on him last
year. Its correspondent only spoils the
matter by his weak reproduction Of that
remarkably clear and straightforward
speech. .re-' g.

change in the Levee Board, anticipated for

H. Oglesby, Esq, was the reputed president
in this change. Upon this statement, as

pot They propose to make to order
buggies, carriages, wagons, &c, in first

other citizens who had fallen under his

halfpast eight o'clock he was found on

old fusil oil by couple of officers, who
hurled the gallant Faatz into the Gala
boose so quick it made his head swim.

PROMPT PAYMENT IS A Big THING -
This appears to be the course pursued
by the Peabody Insurance Company.
We are informed that Yesterday they
handed over their check for the $1,000
lost on Sunday afternoon on the Top
Mill. Payment of losses three days
after the occurrence is an unusual way
of settling, but the officers and directors
ofthis leading company intend to fulfill
all contracts they make as promptly as
they expect payment Of premiums. You
know where to insure.

THEATRE.-We were pleased last
night to see a very large increase in the
number of ladies in attendance at Wash
ington Hall. Though the play is too
heavy and busy to be produced on so
small stage as ours, with proper effect,
yet all were pleased with the representa-
ton. Mr.. Buchanan reads Macbeth
splendidly. and does not lose or mar a
point in this wondrous production, by
haste or slovenliness in elocution. The
Lady Macbeth of Miss Gabrielle Nc
Kean was excellent. The performance
of last night has vastly increased our
appreciation of her tragic power and OF
her histrionic talents. To-nightwe are
to have Bourcicaults great drama OF
London Assurance, with Mr.. Buchanan
as Sir Harcourt Courtly, and Miss Nc
Kean as Lady Gay Spanker. To-mor-
row night Damon and Pythias will be
produced at the request Of the knights
ofPythias::of this city. The matinee for
Saturday afternoon brings TO us again
the familiar and pleasing drama OF
Uncle Toms Cabin.

SERIOUS AccIDENr.--Last evening
about 6 o'clock. as Granville Hall, Esq,

on Centre street, his horse became
somewhat fractions, as we are in

something about the head of the ami
NAL, when it ran away, making kindling
wood Of a bran new buggy. In its
flight, by some means, a portion of a
broken shaft was driven into the horse 9
body, killing him almost instantly. The
horse was a very valuable animal, we
believe.
