One of our exchanges says that d
meeting OF the San Francisco Acade.
my Of Science . paper was contributed
by a DR.. Gournier, detailing q process
by which he a destroy any portion
of the brain that might be desired,
without killing the animal. A little
hole Is made In the skull and a blue
solution of chloride of zine injected
on that part of the brain selected,
which at once becomes petrifed. The
experiments were successfully tried
on rabbits.
Now 1t strikes US that, In connection
with phrenology, this Gournier process
might be made Of the greatest possible
Importance in regulating the dispose
tion Of mankind ; in fact, becomes the
most potent means imaginable In the
interest Of humanity. The convicted
murderer, instead Of being hung, or
even imprisoned for life, could be
merely subjected to the Gournier pro-
cess, aud under the direction Of phre-
nology, chloride of zinc injected
through little holes bored In the skull
would e~ffectually Gournierize combat
iyeness destructiveness and other
vicious bumps, rendering the patient
one Of the meekest, most docile and
least dangerous Of mankind forever
after. Thus, too, from early infancy,
the disposition might be moulded to
suit, and each vicious propensity
quelled rs fast as developed, until the
child should be grown to manhood, =
model Of perfection, the degree OF
which would be dependent only upon
the Judgment Of the parents or those
controlling. As to that matter, chill
dreu could be thus modelled In the COL
leges by regular Professors, we'll
versed In human nature and the Gour-
nlcr process. All! had this process
been discovered sooner, hoodlumism
would have been unknown, and many
q rough here In Washoe, as we'll as
elsewhere, instead Of being hung, shot
or otherwise slaughtered or expa:ria-
ted, would be now residing peacefully
in our midst, members Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, or non
combatant preachers.
Think, too, Of how quarrclsome,
scolding, broomstick-uslng. hen-peck-
ing, tace-scratching, vicious wives
could be regulated and made the most
loving, kind-hearted and devotedly
affectiona.e darlings imaginable. Even
a tho piano can be attuued to perfect
harmony, and made to play only the
sweetest Of airs, so could the wife b
domestically harmonlzed and made In
deed the angel Of the household, rem
dering home literally heaven on earth
Prize fighters, vicious dogs, the crueI
hyena, the dreadful tiger, the grizzly
bear, all could be similarly subdued To
the will Of mankind, and the whole
world become-but the subject Is be,
coming too extensive altogether. We
leave it for the Imagination to further
enlarge upon.

SINCE the great musical peace jubi-
lee the Bostonians have become afraid
Of their great Coliseum, IN which It
was held. They say that 1t Is an i'm.
mense and most infammable building
Of unmanageable proportions, and that
1t Is a wonder that some vagrant spark
from a locomotive has not ignited it
before now-that IL Is OF no earthly
use, and puts all the neighboring edi-
fees in constant danger.

COAST MAIL.

IT is about time the contractor between
here and Vicksburg had perfected his az
rangements to give us regular trl-weekiy
mail, in accordance with the terms Of his
contract. At the expiration of last month
he had succeeded in arranging with the
owners of two of the boats i'll the Nlcks-
burg trade for the Tuesday and Thursday
mail, but up to this time he has made no
permanent arrangement for the Saturday,
the most important mail Of the whole
week. It has generally been sent, since
the last of January up the river on an up
river boat, but last Saturday it was & total
failure, and We regret to learn that the
contractor is trying to have the Saturday
mail abolished because he is unable to
procure boat to do that service for the
price he offers to pay.
Instead of having our mail facilities de-
creased on this route, we should have a
daily mail to all points on the river be-
tween here and vicksburg. Natchez,
having a population of many thousand
and All immense trade, has now only two
mails week. We trust our delegation in
Congress and that Of our sister State Mis-
sissippi, will give this matter their earnest
attention, and insist that this mail shall
not only be regularly carried tri-weekly,
but the service be increased to four or six
times week

Democrats and nondescripts ts-would rally
around its standards. and that the resist

sweep awaE opposition as easily as does

to contine its vast floods. But the people

Crescent City Live Stock Landing and
SlaugbterhouseC Company. The names are
taken from the books Of the company. we
do not know whether they own the stock
now. The presumption is that it waslgiven
by the authors ofthe SlaughterhOuse scheme
for the support of the respective newspa-
pers-the Crescent. Times, and REPUBLICAN.
j. y. Nixon, proprietor Crescent newspa-
per. 246'shares.
C.A.Weed, proprietor New Orleans Times,
800 shares
Michael Hahn, editor New. Orleans RE
PUBLICAN, $50 shares.
A. H. Lee, editor New Orleans REPUBL-
CAN, 346 shares.
We have not before thought It necessary
to allude to the charge made by Judge
Cooley in this connection, as the fact is
well knownto everybody in the city that
the REPUBLICAN opposed the passage OF
the Slaughterhouse. bill from first to last
General Lee was not the editor of the RE-
PUBLICAN at the time mentioned, and
neither then nor at any subsequent time
did this paper ever relax its efforts to de-
feat the bill. Without intending to dis
parage the Bee, or any other journal, we
may be permitted to say that it was noto-
rious in those days that the REPUBLICAN
was the only paper in the city in which the
opponents Of the great monopoly could get
a hearing. The butchers came to
Us, as their only friend and hoped
by torcibly stating the case to defeat
the measure; but other and adverse intlu-
ences proved too strong, and the bill be-
came a law SO that whatever interest
any individual connected with this office
may have had in the success of the scheme,
ii did not affect the course of the REpUB-
L1CAN. And if Governor Hahn WAS the
actual owner of the two hundred and fifty
shares, as alleged, he is entitled to the
credit Of faithfully discharging his duties
as journalist at the expense of his pri- |
vate speculations. But we happen to
know that he never had any real interest |
in the matter at all. Neither did General |
Lee. Their names were used by the pro-
jectors Of the. Slaughterhouse swindle' in |
the manner stated, in the hope of obtain
ing the interest of the REPUBLICAN. The |
bait did not take. Those shares may stand |
on the books to the credit OF those gentle
men to this day for aught we know The
was never purchased by them.
Let the other journals speak for them
selves
New Orleans Republican., 1872-03-21
MR.. MARKS POSITION,

The speech of the Hon. l. n. Marks at
the meeting of the Tenth Ward Reform
Club discloses an attitude of decided op-
position to the Democratic party, and
while avowing his desire for radical re-
form IN the administration of the State and
municipal governments it is to be inferred
that he is willing to secure it in the most
practicable manner possible. The re.orm
movement now organizing is the initial
step III this direction. If the party lines
are drawn SO strongly that a majority of
the voting population decline to enlist in
1t, he thinks very properly, that it will hold
the balance Of power in the State between
the two contending parties, and can COM
pei them to nominate good men to office"
This, in our judgment, is clearly the
mission of the Reform party. Adhering to
this doctrine, much good will result from
It's exertions. Recognizing the idea Of re-
form, and abstainng from party affiliations,
the reform movement can give tone and
complexion TO the Legislature OF the State.
The Democratic party a, stated By Mr..
Marks, makes no promises which give any
reliable assurance Of reform in govern
mental abuses Their past tenure Of office
is equally meager OF satisfactory rreca-
dent. The city, indeed, has never been
50 wretchedly managed as while under
Democratic control. \ coalition, there
fore, with the Democratic party would be
an inexcusable folly. Besides, the I'M
denia BILE bargain Of the Custonhouse
party and the Democrats kills any hope
that the Reformers could have had III ioin-
ing fortunes with them.
Assuming Mr.. Marks position to be
correct, with the clearly understood and
distinc ly aTowed intentions OF the Repub-
licnn party to put itself squarely on record |
in favor Of the correction Of the abuses
of, there is nothing to prevent |
harmonious and concerted action between |
the two organizations.
The colored people have no objection to
acting with the Reformers within the Re-
publican party; the Reformers can have
none to acting with us, if we give them the
reform they are seeking to secure.
New Orleans Republican., 1872-03-21

tire session of the same Legislature i
was pretentiously b>asted about th'
streets of New Orleans that ther,
were almost enough Representatives Sc
cured to impeach the Governor, bu
the Democrats would not consent to bring
the matter to vote because they ''did MOI
want niger Governor" Was that any
evidence that Governor Warmoth had filled
the Legislature with his own partisans
At the next session of tine Legislature, in
1872, the same spirit prevailed, and fol
| two weeks the Senate could not meet be.
| cause the members had trick arranged
by which they proposed to get rid Of the
Governor. The House of Representatives
became demoralized at the same time, and
| attempted to revolutionize the State in the
interest of the enemies of the Governor.
Do these two facts sustain the assertion of
the Bee that the elections were manipu-
lated in the individual interest of the Gov
ernor? If they do, there are but few
men who would be willing to trust their
fortunes to such men. The above is all
the answer that the folly Of our double
barreled contemporary needs
There is a reasonable suggestion that
will account for the support which Gov
arnor Warmoth received, which we pro-
pose to address to reasonable people.
There We're a certain number of Repub-
licans in the Legislature who felt it to be
their duty 70 stand by their own dignity
and by the legally elected head of the
State government. They were impel!ed
to this course of action by their love of
order, in the first place, by their distrust
Of the Democrats, in the second place.
and by their principles and party predi-
lections, in the third place. Having been
elected as Republicans by the same party
that elected Governor Warmoth, thev ac-
eepted him as the representative of the
party and OF their principles. They were
not the creatures of the first officer of the
State, but they We're steadtast Repub-
licans, and they believed, as the party be-
ieves. that the best thing they could
do for the State, for the people,
and for themselves, was to act
in support of the lawful Governor
of Louisiana. They had as much right to
exercise their own judgment and to control
their own action in the premises as their
associates had, and they certainly dis
played greater wisdom in pursuing the
course that they did than the factionists
displayed when they rushed into the street
md called to local mob to attack and
lestroy the government of all the State.
They certainly maintained their dignity to
better advantage. They acted in all things
ike Republicans, and they discoumte-
,anced in all things the imputatation that
hey were creatures

lot as perfect man, but as the best man
hey can lind to fill the office which he |
lolds There are a few who honestly op-
'ose him, misled by just such nonsense as |
hat which the Bee palms of as instruc-
i've. If the few would investigate all the
acts and learn the reason why the fac
lonists oppose the Governor, they would
oon recant their error and become the
riends of the officer who has made enc
nies nerhans in defending. them
