added to the amount. In conclusion, we
are of opinion that the present police force
have attained great proficiency, and will
become more so if it is conducted
as we'll in the future as it has been in the
past. There is one thing that might be
done. Let the city authorities promptly pro-
vide the cash to pay the force, so that there
may be no necessity Of issuing checks to
the men, on which they have to suffer
a heavy discount When that is done, the
police force Of New Orleans, we are salts
fed, will be equal in excellence to any
police force in the world. We are satisfied
the Board of Commissioners and those under
them have performed their duties accord
ing to law. and therefore, we have no re-

steam by means of red hot brick

tanning the ammonia, the pan being
placed IN the centre of the room. Allow
the patients to come into the room as
the amonia steam is passing off. This
method, used in the evening just be-

then have choice between genuine
