We find this in the St. Louis Democrat.

Colonel James T. Tucker, of New Or
leans. agent of the Illinois Central rail
road, was on Change yesterday. Mr..
Tucker speaks very encouragingly of the
export trade in grain that city Is working
up. He states that vessel owners are now
rapidly discovering that grain is a better
having freight than cotton. Cotton bears
bigber rate of freight, it is true, but after
wharfage, dOckage, town dues, stevedOr-
ACE, compressing, and the thousand and
che other charges are paid, the net return
Is not Of enough importance to quarrel
over. A vessel taking on grain at the ele-
vator as full cargo, proceeds at once to
the elevator, and thus escapes all charges.
She does not even have TO pay wharfage,
the elevator wharf being private property,
and free to all boats wanting grain. Mr..
Tucker named one vessel, very weak IN the
faith that grain at ten pence could be made
to pay, which after idly lying at the wharf
some weeks waiting for cotton freight was
very reluctantly compelled to take cargo
of corn. She could only take $4,000 bush
els, yet she cleared $500 on the operation
and at once put back to New Orleans Tor
more corn.

And now another fortunate individual
comes forward and informs the public Of
his good luck in the purchase of ticket
in the Louisiana State Lottery, which has
enriched SO many people. This time DR..
Charles Pelaez is the lucky man, and he
bought one-half of combination ticket Nos.
80, az, 70, class 149, for fifty cents, at the
office No 10 st. Charles street, and drew
one-half of $4,000. The amount he won
was promptly paid on presentation of the
ticket at the office Of the company, so that
DR.. Pelaez is now in funds. This is little
better than life insurance. for the value is
realized during the life time of the party
who invests his money. The residence Of
this most fortunate person is No. 626 Ba-
rome street, near Third street, and un-
doubtedly he will satisfy all who may call
on him that he believes in buying lottery
tickets judiciously, always selecting good
numbers.

CITY TAXES.
DEPAETHEyT or FINANCE,

DEPARTMENT or FfEAECK,
City Hall. June ], 1872. :
HytYPAYFRS ARE REMINDED THAT THE TINE
u is fast passing away in which they can pay
citv taYeg without heavy costs.
II Is perhaps nat generally known that the mere
REGISTER OF tax bills ia the Office Of the Recorder Of
Mortgages constitutes q lien upon all the delin-
ouent's property, and no transfer can be made
until the dill is paid with all the costs.
Taxes may now be paid as follows: 8 % in
cash, = IS IN ive-eighths return tax certificates
Of appropriation, school certificates or metropolitan
police warrants
The extraordinary discount at which these obi
cations can be bought goes far to neutralize the
just complaint Of heavy taxes, while the purpose
for which the cash is required, viz. to pay the n
terest on the bonded debt, appeals TO the patriot
ism Of every citizen who desires 70 redeem our city
from its endorsements which can rot be done
unless the credit Of its bonds is preserved.

The Opelousas Courier reports the fol-
lowing details relating to a murder:
Our readers are already aware that on
the sixteenth instant a cOlOred man by the
name Of Willis johnson was murdered by a
band Of armed malefactors, on the planta-
ton of Mr.. Solomon johnson, residing on
Coulee Croche, or rather Queue TOrtue,
near the limits of Lafayette.
Six men, all residents of the parish Of
Lafayette, have been arrested and lodged
in our Jail. on Tuesday last, accused Of this
crime. They are Baptiste Clement, Emile
Prejean, Kliber MOuton, a young man by
the name Of Sisa, and another by the name
of Jean-both last named residing at Emile
Prejean's, and q negro man named George.
The i've white men are accused as princi-
pals in the murder, and the freedman is ac-
ensed as accessory before the fact
These parties are before j. T. Knox, JUS
tice of the peace IN our town, and the pre-
hminary examination will probably teruli-
nate to-day. We have heard that the testi-
mony, so far, is strongly against the &C
cused.
