as it was a matter which came under the Bureau
OF Construction; when Mr.. Lentha told witness

ONE OF THE ERRORS into which MANY old es
tablished business houses tall is that there is no
necessity for advertising them. Such theory
would have answered well enough half cen

business man can afford TO rely upon the long.
standing and respectability OF his house. This
is progressive age Nearly everybody reads the
newspapers, and public opinion is made up by
what is printed there, whether il be in the form

JOHN Bulls PAEIc.-The London Globe OF
yesterday calls attention to a rumOr of an extra
ordinary character, which has obtained cur
rency in London, that the case of the American
government before the Geneva tribunal of arbl-
uation estimates the losses OF citizens OF the
United states by the capture and destruction of
American ships and cargoes bv Confederate
cruisers built or fitted out i'm English waters
at Sli 900 900. and the expenses of the United
States government in pursuing said privateers
500 600 900. The Globe comments with some
severity upon this statement and expresses the
hope that Gladstone will be speedily called
upon in Parliament for an explanation as TO its
truth or falsity.

WAGES EXEMPT FROM SEIZURE.

Justices of the peace will do well to read
with some degree of care and attention the
able and just decision of Judge Theard,
which we publish in another column. The
doctrine is broadly laid down that all de-
scrip!ions of salaries wages and recon-
pense for personal services are exempt
from seizure by garnishment process This
is principle that has been contended for
before, in this city, and decision rem
dered year or so ago seemed to recog-
nize. it; but unfortunately it was not SO
plain as to cause our justices Of the peace
to cease the practice Of their petty tyran-
MES toward those unfortunate defendants
who are so often cited into their courts
We have known Of cases where the salary
due an employe was seized in suit for dis
puted rent, while his wife was sick and
he was unable to provide medicine for
her or food for his children without the
the money due him for his work. The
garnishees are powelless. Theycan only
answer the interrogatories and can make
no defense on the merits. and the debtor
has, usually, neither the time nor the
knowledge necessary to defend his rights.
He is, therefore, first robbed by the Gre
ditor in the name Of justice and after
ward frequently discharged by his en-
ployer, who wishes 10 escape the annoy
ance Of answering garnishment process.
We are glad Judge Theard has put a stop
to this. For We feel assured that Judge
Emerson, who has charge of appeals from
justices of the peace, will follow Oh the
same side in the first case presented to him
in which an attachment of credit on ac-
count of personal services is involved.

A POLITICAL CLEARING Up,

1.-THE Washington correspondent of the
New Orleans Times, who solemnly averred
in one of his letters that the people Of the
national capital paid as little attention to
Louisiana matters as they did to a dis
orderly community OF Spanish-Americans,
has so Ear altered his notions of late as to
assert that at present affairs in New Or
leans attract great deal Of attention, the
President himself lending his care to their
consideration with considerable earnest
ness. This is hopeful. And the still
further assurance is conveyed to us that
the federal officers in New York, and also
those il Louisiana, who have used their
