People of New Orleans who pay FIVE
elghths of the State taxes, see to it. I'm
pOYerished people of the country parishes
see to it. The holders of State bonds,
at home and abroad, see to it.
1t might be suggestively added see
to what! See that the rotten hUlks
of a past political power don't cum
Der the way: see that the voice of the
people, chained down by those who do
none of the voting and all Of the growI-
ing, and who are in ting first rank to get a
fat office, TO which their interest does not
entitle them, see to it that these public de-
mOralizers have no chance at the bellows,
no finger in the pie again. The State in
debtedness has not been increased one cent
by H. G.. WarmOth. On the contrary, vii
lainy in the Legislature, by which the debt
could be increased, was killed off by the
S25, 000. 900 amendment, suggested by Gov
ernOr WarmOth, who has destroyed by his
veto more Jobs than ever have passed. The
State debt is but $23,OOO,OO0, all told. See
to it. The State taxes are levied to pay the
interest of the bonded debt, and we say,
bully! We believe in paying debts-see to
it. The augmentation IN the city debt has
been made By the rOse-watered Democrats
see to it. With the bad deeds of past adj
ministratiOns numbering the records, and
for which the present administration has to
pay-echO answers, see to it.

St. AIphOnsus Schools.

! Yesterday was the last day of the exam
nation of the young ladies of st. Mary's
! Assumption Parochial School of the Fourth
| District, the exercises commencing at 5 P.
| NJ. The programme was prepared with
excellent taste, embracing music, dialogues,
| addresses, ETC., both in English and Ger
man. The salutatorY address was delivered
by Miss Kate Stanton, in a very modest,
charming and. effective manner. 1t would
be a work of supererOgation to specify the
delightful features of the exercises, the per
formance being so varied, yet eclectic. Miss
L. Leidner acted as mistress Of ceremonies,
with naivete and grace.
At half-past eight o'clock the names of
the graduating class was called by Father
Lutte, AMI as the young ladies stepped for
ward they received the much coveted
parchment at the hands of Father Jaeckel.
The following are tho names of the grad
yates: Misses Josephine Delatte, Catharine
Stanton, Elizabeth Robinson, Louisa Theis-
man, Clementina Merz. Also the ladies of
the preceding class: Misses Christina
BUTLER, Caroline Staub, Catharine Kelley,
Marie Bell, and Catharine Poster.
The diplomas distributed, then came the
grand, beautiful and effective feature of
the evening-the valedictory, by Miss
Louisa Theisman. THIS address was pro-
nOunced in a clear, earnest manner, and
with deep feeling. AS the young lady bade
adieu to the holy fathers, the good sisters
and her young sehoolmates, deep impress
sion was created upon the minds of all who
were present, and although the utmost
silence prevailed during its delivery, as she
closed the hall rung with applause.
Father Jaeckel made brief address in
German. Kronenbeger, the famous or
ganist of st. Mary's, played.a grand march,
and the ceremony was brought to a close at
half-past nine o'clock. And they all were
very happy

How to Abate the Concert Saloon Nnl-
sanCes,

SanCeBs
In our edition of Tuesday we alluded
briefly to a petition which had been for
warded to the Mayor by the residents in
the neighborhoOd, protesting against a
nuisance which has existed for some mon tbs
on Baronne street, and known as the Allan
tic Garden, a beer saloon in which consOrt
a low class of men with lower. ella SIS of
women Since then our attention has been
called to the municipal laws on this subject.
Ordinance No. 416, Administration serie 3.
provides that after the first of Januar y,
1871, no place of this kind shall be allo wed
to open Except on the writ IN consent of
the owners or lessees of One,half of the
frontage on both sides of the~street or
square" where said establishment is lOcat ed.
This ordinance became a law August NJ,
1870, and has never been repealed.
Now, if diligent inquiries are made at the
City Hall, it will be ascertained that
although there are really a dozen of places
of this character in town, not one has ever
complied with the law by obtaining the
written consent OF the neighborhOOd. 1t
will be furthermore ascertained that Adj
ministratOr of Police Lewis has allowed
them to open under a theatrical license,
thus defeating the very object for which
the above quoted city ordinance was
adopted. The Metropolitan Police are pc W
erless to remedy the evil, since the recent
legislation of the City Council has Invested
the Superintendent OF Police of large pro-
portion of his former power in this regard.
and the enforcement of city ordinances is a
matter which rarely if ever, claims the at
tention of the Board of Police Commits e.
siOners.
There is fortunately a remedy for this
nuisance, or class OF nuisances, complained
of, without resort to petitions of courts,
which have both so far proved unavailing,
and which entails MT one cent of expense.
The extract which we publish below makes
it obligatory On the part of the Mayor to
take action, which, in our opinion, he would
gladly do were the matter brought proper
ly to his notice.
Whenever a petition, sigHed by three
respectable citizens residing with the
vicinity of any house, building or room
occupied, or inhabited or frequented by
one or more lewd women, shall be present
ed to the-MavOr, stating, under oath, that
such house, building or room is nuisance,
or that the occupants thereof are i'll the
habit of disturbing the peace of the nsigh-
bOrhOOd, or are in the habit of. committing
by the public exposure of their
persons, etc, it shall be the duty of the
Mayor Immediately to notify the owner or
lessee Of such house, building or room that
such report has been made, and t. order
him or her to eject from the premises so Oc-
cupied the persons in possession at the time
Of the complaint, etc.-See LeOvy's Gen

DARING HIGHWAY RoBBERY.-About one
o'clock this, Friday morning a sailor
named II. II. Stephens, belonging to the
schooner Bennington, lying at the foot of
EratO street, was on the way to get aboard,
carrying two bundles Of mosquito bars,
when he was assaulted and knocked down
on TcbOupitoulas street. and robbed of his
bundles and what money was in his pockets
by a gang of highwaymen.- He gave an
alarm, attracting the attention of Corporal
Meuck, who started in pursuit of the
thieves. They being close pressed, threw
away the bundles and separated. He, how
ever, succeeded in capturing one of the
party, giving the name of John Carr, who
was locked up at the first precinct station.
NEW ORLEANS THIEVES CONE TO GRIEF
IN VIoKsBURG.-The Yicksburg Times of
Wednesday says:
On Monday afternoon, asdispatch was re-
ceived at our police headquarter from A. S.
Badger chief at New Orleans, requesting
our authorities to have an eye out for a
couple of professional thieves, who had
taken passage on the steamer City of 0uin,
Cy, and who were wanted" in that city t.
answer the charge of stealing $500, the tele-
gram being accompanied by a full descrip-
ton of the parties.
The matter was Immediately turned over
to Captain A. A. Edwards, of our force,
who. upon the arrival of the steamer yes
terday afternoon at the levee, Immediately
proceeded on board, where he found his
birds enjoying all the luxuries of the sea-
son, and having good time generally on
the proceeds of their ill-gOtten gains.
The parties arrested are William Burns
and Frank Berger, neither of whom are
over nineteen or twenty years of age. Upon
the persons of both were found some 5000
of the money. They expressed no little
surprise when informed by Captain Ed
wards that he would supply them with safe
quarters until further notice. The change
from the carpeted floor of the cabin of
first-class steamer to the stone walls of
prison cell can not be very gratifying to the
feelings of the enterprising yOuths. Upon
a requisition from the Governor OF LOuisi-
ana the gentlemen will go back to the
scene of their thrilling exploits
