] 1t was truly marvellous and melan-
cholly as marvellous TO see the SILVER
ing policemen and the "hOmeless by
night huggiDg the ten-bushel stove at
the Adams street sLationhoUse last
, night to the imminent risk of their over
coats and boots. There was nothing
else doing. The cold was so inknse
! out doors that the fighting, thieving
and notwithstanding proclivities OF the
law-breakers were frozen within them.
"A contemporary yesterday said
that, in order 10 stop the war on John
; son, he should adopt the following pian
Let the s'powers that be" give certain one
4 of the assaiiing editors the City Comptroller
ship, another the Office OF Treasurer, another
, who must be sent FOR from Little Rock the
heeoruer clarkshlp, and the CUISINES man
& uger" the position OF Chief of Police, or Su-
perinteudent OF the Fire Department, and we
feel sure that quiet viii reign in warsaw
The fellow that wrote the above has a
level head. Had johnson made these
appointments the city affairs wouldnow
be 80. K" and no war necessary.
This is the first time we have heard
Of thieves reaching out for whisky; and
it is pleasant to know that the scamp
was sold. He was a tall, gaunt-lOOking
"ysller'' man, and he snatched the bot
lie from the counter Of Duffy & Carey,
on Main street, yesterday at five O'Clock.
There was a number of bottles standing
in row, wrapped up, ready to be sent
10 some customer. The cOlOred man
f'got left on it," The bottle he captured
contained pickles, and not liquor, as he
fOndly hoped.
Church goers to-day viii be struck
with the truth and beauty of this latest
effusion of a Shreveport musical critic:
'She flooded the church with her river
I Of melody and bore her hearers away
/ upon its enhancing currents, until they
! felt as if they were in that happy land
to which her song alluded, and found
/ the lost bowers and were reveling be-
meath the outrageous foliage and in
/ tOXicating fragrance which they alone
could afford. Her notes, at times, were
/ as soft, clear, sweet and plaintive as
those of an HOlian harp, while at others,
/ they resembled the shrill tones of Red
river steamers whistle in fog"
The race tive policemen had after a
/ cOlored fellow, with top boots and dirty
| face, down Monroe street and along De-
Soto yesterday, might be amusing TO
/ lOOkers-On, but was anything save 'jol-
I iy'' TO the parties engaged. Running at
/ the rate Of twelve miles an hour against
a biting wind, and the epizoOtie pinch
: ing One's fuviOus nasal organ, is not
pleasant. The ugly negro in this case
/ insultad a woman on Second street. Is
it not q grand evidence of civilization
and virtue when we see four hearty men
start after a negro who has insulted
lady on the streets? That race was
chivalrous; il was noble; it made our
cynical reporter cry out in his weak,
wheezy tones, "BravOln twice. That
barbarous cOlored was properly lodged
in the Adams street stationhOuse.

Our attention having been drawn
10 the new music store of Mr.. II. @.
HOllenberg, No. pa Second street, by
his laying on our table a number of the
latest and choicest musical publications,
we paid 5 sit 10 his establishment, and
found 1t 70 surpass our highest eXpecta-
lions. his store, one of the largest and
Gandsomest in our city, is most tasteful
~ lined with neat and handsome music
shelves, counters and showcases full of
sheet music, musicbOoks and all kinds
Of musical instruments and merchan-
disc, and with q complete assortment Of
elegant new Chickering pianos and or
gans. In the rear Of the store is the re-
pairing shop, where Mr.. H., assisted by
efficient WOrkmen, restores old pianos to
almost their former excellence. We I
saw the piano of the Inflated Thomas
II. Allen resurrected from the bottom of
lhe river, and another one which had
been thrown out of the window of a
burning house, in process of repair, and
extraordinary Skill II is GER
.ainly encouraging 10 see such work
lone in our city as skillfully as in the
large factories Of our Eastern cities.
