We copy the following communication to
the Planters Banner:
MEssRs EDITORS:
AS several of my friends have desired
that publish the name of the president of
the board of directors of the New Orleans
Printing and Publishing Company 1.-THE New
Orleans Picayune Company, and as they
have not the means Of information on this
subject in the country, such as they have in
the city, | have concluded to enlighten such
readers of the Banner as are act informed
on this matter.
Mr.. L. H. Gardner of the firm of L. H.
Gardner 4 Co., No. 80 Common street, New
Orleans, is the president of the board of
managers, and has filed that Office since
January.
The two gentlemen mentioned in nv
appeal from the board OF managers to the
stockholders etc, as having opposed the
attacks which had made in the Picuy,tne
on Governor Warmoth are Z. H. Summers,
president of the Crescent City Bank and
Albert Baldwin, OF the firm of Slocomb &
Baldwin.
Mr.. T. NJ. Simmons, member of the
board, acknowledged to me, after he had
voted against me, that he knew nothing of
the merits OF the case: that he had never
attended but two meetings of the board.
and knew nothing about the manner in
which the Picayuae Office had been man
aged.
Mr.. Leon Haas, Jr., voted against me. l
had no acquaintance whatever with that
gentleman, more than may have met him
once or twice. He voted, like Mr.. Sim
mons, without protesting to know much
about the matter.
Five out of the twelve members of the
board of managers have always regarded
as my friends. | am not aware that any of
them ever voted or used their influence
against me. This list includes Messrs.
Hugh McCloskey, John 1. Adams, j. c.
Morris, c. b. Singleton and S. Cambon.
Respectfully,
D. BENNETT.

changed.
New YORK. April ia Matamoras
special OF the tenth says that te!egraphlc
communication with ReynOsa has been re-
established, which shows that the revolu-
tionists are not approaching from that d.
rection.
Palacios is not enforcing the blockade Of
the Rio Grande.
MArAMoRAs, Mexico. April 1.-THE situa-
ton is unchanged. The government troops
hold the country above the city for thirty
miles, and below to the sea. while the revo-
lutionists hold ReynOsa and all the upper
roads, and there is no communication with
the interior, except toward TampicO which
is still open to couriers.
General McCOok, commanding at Fort
Brown, Texas, has taken every precautiOn
by picketing the whole front of the river
near Brownsville, and in front of this city,
to prevent any breach of the neutrality law,
by the revOlutiOnists crossing from the
American side to attack on the water front.
All able-bOdied men are being put into the
national guard for defense, increasing the
force to about 1900 men. Steamers are still
plying on the Rio Grande without Interrupt
ton or police visits.
1t is stated that the recent suits against
jay Gould and Lane were fled to prevent
this company from compromising with them
and releasing them from future litigation;
but no complaint was entered, and the
counsel of the Erie Company consider such
action untenable. The report that seven
eigh.s of Erie stock is owned by the Bisch-
off Ieim party is discredited.
1t is stated that the new American direc-
tor Mr.. Green, owns $l0,000.0O0, a number
of other Americans as much more. and
other narties associated in the new move
ment $4,000, 900: that the Heath & Raphael
party having failed to obtain majority of
the stock. have abandoned all attempts to
control the road. General Given, vice presi-
dent of the Erie, is virtual president of the
road. OF Ter duties of General Dix claiming

Railway Scheme COndemned-Treafy
Of WashingtOn-Openin of the Do
min;On Parliament Il The Governors
speech.
TORONTO. April ll.-Hon. William Mac
dougal addressed his constituents at Al
monte last night. He condemned the
scheme for Pacific railway. now being car
ried ont By the Canadian government, as
involving enormous expenditures, and said
II would have been better to have relied
more upon water communication and
American railways. He next referred to
the treaty Of Washington. said it was just
possible Great Britain and the United States
might continue to differ about the construc-
ton OF the treaty, in which case Canada
would not be called upon to take any action
with regard to it. but recent information
seemed to indicate that the difference would
he settled, and therefore the matter would
come before our Parliament. 1t would be
a fatal mistake for our Parliament to refuse
to confirm a treaty to which the head of the
government had attached his signature.
If the Dominion remains o part and par
eel of the British empire, we must submit
to the consequences of that position, and
must be ready to do our part toward car
rying out arrangements that may have
been entered into between the mother cOun-
try and foreign countries. We can not re-
main as part of the empire and act as an in
dependent nation. We must be willing to
allow the imperial government, in its deal
ings with us OF other foreign countries, to
make such bargains as they in their wis
dom. and in accordance with the public
opinion OF the empire, may find necessary,
and we must acquiesce like good subjects,
and put up with the consequences.
Mr.. Macdougall was quite ready to discuss
the propriety OF political change, if it was
found that our position was an embarrass.
ment to ourselves and the mother country.
He was quite prepared to consider what
was the best, wisest and safest course for
us to take, but in Parliament they could not
discuss this question. They must there
deal with things as they were: they must
recognize Canada as part of the British
empire. Maritime provinces were satisfied
with the fishery clauses. He considered
the Importance of the concession made to
the United States, and this matter had been
greatly Overrated.
As to the navigation of the st. Lawrence,
he held that it would be an advantage to
Canada to allow the Americans equal
rights on that river, and in point OF interna-
ti0nal law they were entitled to it anyway.
He argued the imperial government alone
was responsible for the treaty.

Washington, with such. correspondence as
can be made public will be submitted to
Parliament. whose attention is invited to
this important subject, as also the scheme
of Joint action for the encouragement OF
emigration by all the provinces. and Par
lament is asked to make provision for
carrying it into effect:
The union of British Columbia with Can
ada has been consummated, and provision
for railway to connect the new province
with the Dominion is recommended. The
means of transportation by water and rail-
way throughout the Dominion should be
cheapened and facilitated. The revenue
for the past and current years exceeds the
estimates, and the country is vel! prepared

The Governor concludes by congratu-
lating Parliament On the general prosperity
Of the Dominion.

The Duty on VermOufll.

Mr.. E. P. Champlin: deputy collector of
the customs at this port, sends US copy Of
the subjOined communication from Secre-
tary Boutwell, to Collector Casey:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT
Washington, d. c., April 6. 1872. s
James F. Casey, Collector of Customs, Few Or.
leans, Louisiana:
SIR-Your letters of the twenty-eighth
ultimO and first instant are received, sub
hitting communications from Mr. p. Z.
BrulatOur and Messrs. ,Blanchin 81 Giraud,
relative to the decisions of the department
of the fifteenth of February last and the
twenty-tirst ultimO as to the rate of duty on
vermOuth. The state of facts disclosed by
your letter of the twenty-eighth ultimo
show that the case is one of hardship for
Mr.. BrulatOur. Ii there was any other de-
scriptiOn OF vermOuth imported into the
United States which could meet the require
ments OF the twenty-secOnd section of the act
OF July IL, 1870 could see a way in which
this vermOuth could be classified AS wine,
the same as before the law of 1870 went into
effect; but inasmuch as there has been and
is only one description of vermouth, and as
vermouth is specially provided for at two
dollars per gallon, l do not see how the de-
partment is qualified with any authority to
grant relief in the case. l have. however
sent copy OF petition. signed by numer-
GUS importers at New Orleans, to the chair
man of the Committee of Ways and
Means of the House of Representatives,
with the recommendation that the duty on
vermouth, composed of wine, be fixed at
the same rate as other wines.
l may also add that have received sew
eral communications from Senator West of
Louisiana. in regard to this subject, and
have also informed him of the action thus
taken.

FARM Provocative are much reioiced
to see that at last a move has been made in
the direction of taking the business of sup
plying consumers of fowls, eggs, fruit, ETC.,
out of the hands of spectators and buck
sters, by the establishment here of
a regular agency for the sale of
those articles, which shall have
branches all over the city and which
shall directly represent the producer. while
it deals directly with the consumer. The
firm Of Wilson & Manard, No. Isl Poydras
street, have opened as the pioneers in this
business, and the public will find in their
establishment always the freshest of eggs,
finest of chickens, and the best of fruits, at
figures far below the usual prices demanded
by hucksters and dealers in the markets.
They represent the producers, and receive
direct, consequently buyers will always
find it advantageous to deal with them
If our readers wish to get cheap fruit,
chickens, eggs, and groceries, they must en-
courage this movement.
