Miss Beach's Concert.-While we have
not space to speak Of the concert given by
Miss Beach, on Friday evening, as it deserved;
we can safely say that it was one. of the best if
not the best ever given in our city. The at
tendance was large, and every one felt richly
rewarded The programme was arranged
with unquestionable taste and the execution
admirable. While acknowledging this brilliant
talent from abroad, which assisted Miss Beach
on this occasion, and also contributed very
much to the musical treat, we must also ex-
press the Just pride which our citizens feel in
the superior musical talent which We have here
in our own city, and which was particularly
manifest on Friday evening. We congratu-
late Miss Beach and those who assisted her,
with their success.

that individuals blessed with sound lungs meet
on the sidewalk under our Office windows to

but speak in tones that come tearing and roll
ing up the distance of three stories to where

thus ruthlessly being forced to become liable

hot at.all Strange.-Some of our ex-
changes are publishing as curious item the
following statement:
"a horse in Iowa pulled the plug out of the
bung-hole of barrel, for the purposes of slak-

We do not see anything extraordinary in
the occurrence. Now, if the horse had pulled
the barrel out Of the bung-hole, and slaked its
thirst with the plug; or if the barrel had pulled
the bung-hole out Of the plug, and slaked its
thirst with the horse; or if the plug had pulled
the horse out of the barrel and siaked its thirst
with the bung-hOle; or if the bung-hOle had
pulled the thlrst out of the horse, and slsked
the plug with the barrel; or if the barrel had
pulled the horse cut OF the bung-hole and
plugged is thirst with a slake, it might be
worth while to make some fuss over it:

The Baton Rouge Conventions.


About the Customhouse, and the Senate
chamber at Mechanics Institute, there was
constant hustle and excitement yesterday.
A caucus of the Campbell convention was
held in the latter on Sunday, which quite
| strongly represented the friends of Mr..
Pinchback, and the determination was
reached to leave no effort uqexerted to
bring about consolidation Of the party at
Baton Rouge.
Dispatches from the chairmen of various
country delegations were received during
the day asking, whether, in view of Gov
ernor Warmoths letter, it would be neces-
sary to go to Baton Rouge.
Gentlemen from Baton Rouge announce
that during the session of the convention
barrooms, stores, etc., viii be thrown open
to the public, without distinction as to color.
This, in the interest of peace and good
order, is a very wise determination.
The CustOmhouse delegates left the foot
of Bienville street at four o'clock yesterday,
on the steamer MarceIla, Senator Kellogg.
Colonel Carter, and about a hundred others
accompanying them.
A mixed delegation followed on the w.
S. Pike, containing Don A. Pardee and f.
j. Heron; but the event of the evening was
the departure of the B. L. Hodge, bearing to
the scene of political strife Lieutenant Gov
ernor Pinehbaek, Messrs. Harry Mahon ney,
Ed. Butler, H. C. Dibble, and couple of
hundred of representative men, who rallied
around this leading man of the colored peo-
pie as the priesthood about another Moses
As the noble steamer, with her decks
crowded and band playing, pushed out
into the stream, her departure was greeted
with the applause Of hundreds on the wharf
the roar from more than a thousand throats
rising far above the cIattering of the
wheels, the clank of the engine, and the
other sounds denOting motion.

MYsferfOns and Ty1.ue.

4 strange and, as yet unsolved mystery
hangs around a chain of incidents now oc-
curing about the premises of we'll known
gentleman residing on Magazine street,
near Thalia. We have the facts directly
from him. He says that since last Wednes-
day afternoon his house has been subjected
to a mysterious bombardment of briekbats.
bits Of mortar and other. missiles, thrown
apparently from yard adjacent to his,
and with such force as to make it danger
GUS to stand near by. With all the alert
ness he could exercise he was unable to dis
cover the source of this annoyance, and
finally made complaint at the police Office.
Three men were dispatched to the place to
ferret out and arrest the disturber of the
peace. but. notwithstanding the most dill
gent search and careful watching, no one
can be found upon whom even a suspicion
could De laid as the guilty party.
As an evidence of their boIdness, We are
told that while two of the policemen were
in the yard Of the besieged house, and
another with the gentleman IN the yard
from which the missiles seemed to come, q
piece of brick was thrown, striking one of
the officers in the face. Up to yesterday
morning no less than eight panes of glass
il the kitchen had been broken by these
projectiles, and several Of the family mar
rowly escaped being struck. At times they
come in showers, while al others they are
thrown at long intervals. On Friday the
annoyance became SO great as to drive the
lady and her family away it being danger
GUS to remain in the house. We get all this
from the gentleman himself, and if any one
has an explanation or remedy for such
grievances. we will give his name and ad
dress. He has had no difficulty with any
one in the neighborhOod, and is completely
at loss TO account for this strange attack
upon bis house.
We confess we have no solution for the
mystery, and only state what, on the best
is a fact.

NEW ORLEANS, TUESDAY, JUNE l8. 1872

have produced very dangerous injuries
while, should they not prove mortal, the
blows upon the head made with the perfume
bottles leave little hope of her fnal recov
cry. Jennie Bronson, the would-be assas
sin in this fearful domestic drama, is a wO.
man of singular beauty, but of violent and
Incorporate passions. Her welded life
was a scene of incessant disturbance, and
it was only when her furious temper was
no longer to be borne that her husband re-
sorted to the alternative of divorce.
When some time afterward he sought peace
and happiness with Pearl Rivers" she
swore a bitter revenge, saying both should
feel the effects of her vengeance. How
faithfully she has carried out this threat
the events of yesterday attest. She was
arrested by police officer Dorsey, and car
ried to the Pacanier station, where she was
locked up. In the evening she was visited
by a number of acquaintance and members
OF the press, but she refused to talk freely
of the occurrence and desired 20 make no
statement, saying that she left all things in
the hands of Providence and trusted only
in Gods mercy.

Increase Of sinecnres.

At the time when President Grant was
suffering under an attack of chronic econ
omy he wisely scratched of large number
Of barnaoles-petty Office holders, who were
fixtures without other duties than to draw
salaries. As election time approaches we
find these places filed again One notable
case has fallen under our personal notice
A sineoure had for years been stationed at
Fort LigingstOn-a kind OF revenue officer,
whose occupation is to annoy small mariners
whenever he feels inclined to shake of
mosquitoes and gain a bit of news. That
portion Of Jefferson parish counts a number
Of solid votes, which must be looked after.
Therefore revenue officer IS sent back to
that interesting point, and another salary
is added 70 our national expense account.
There really IS no particle Of use for the
officer in that LEGALITY for the purpose Of
looking after vessels. Should smuggling
be attempted there, he could not help him
self or make an arrest or seizure, he can
only annoy, like another insect. When the
office was abolished the few luggers and
skiffs that pass that way escaped detention,
and our market was supplied with fresher
fish and shellfsh.
