We have had more than two days Of rain.

that time, occasionally in heavy showers.

The storm has been severe on the Gulf.
especially on the Texas route, where the
two dramatic companies coming to and
going from the st. Charles Theatre had an
opportunity TO know from experience the
horrors OF sea sickness.
According 70 the probabilities, we may
have clearing weather to-day. The storm.
though not unexpected, retards business
generally in this city, and casts a gloom
over the tradesmen who depend on sales to
pay their maturing notes, and actually
makes theatrical managers think Of suicide
or reputation.
Every body, except the saloon or coffee
house keepers, thinks this is the most dull
dismal, melancholy, disagreeable weather
that New Orleans has been afflicted with
for months.

Third District RefOrmers-They are Cap
tured by the Democrats.

Notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather, there was fair attendance at
Stonewall Jackson Hall last night of the
Retormers of the old Third.
The meeting was organized by the cleo
ton of Edward Sweeney as president, Judge
Thomas II. Kennedy. L. +. Cullen, Felix
Labatut Robert H. Bartley F. Shubert, D..
Michel and w. c. Raymond vice presidents,
and W. b. Duncan and Henry Chiapella as
secretaries.
Mr.. Carroll asked who had authorized
the nomination of the officers named, and
stated that he had seen a call signed by
about fifteen or twenty men of the Third
District, the rest of the signers being up
town men. He believed in the III aiority
ruling.
President Sweeney stated that few had
got together TO see if they could not be of
some service to their fellow men, and had
nominated officers themselves.
MI. Carroll insisted upon his right to be
heard. and some confusion ensued, he in
sisting that the majority of the signers to
the call were not citizens of the district
and proposed an organization.
The president and several others spoke.
and things became quite mixed. There
seemed to be disposition on the part of
the Democrats to capture the meeting.
Judge Kennedy attempted to throw some
light upon the subject. and to quench the
fires which began 10 glow. He said that the
call had not been made to the Democrats.
and unless they came there to outnumber
the RetOrmers, he could not see what right
they had to interfere.
Mr.. Carroll asked the Judge in what
shape he first went into a Reform meeting
and being answered by the Judge that he
was a Democrat at that time. Mr.. Carroll
claimed that same right. The place be-
came very noisy, the opposition claiming
that they did not want any uptown men,
the Third District being able to organize
for themselves.
Secretary Duncan deted the diScontpnts
to name a single person on the list who
was not member of the district. He
moved that the officials named be elected
by acclamation, and in case they were de
teated they could retire.
Mr.. Carroll moved to lay the motion on
the table. when another motion 10 adjourn
was carried, and the parties left the hall in
confusion, with general denunciatiuns upon
all sides

Ryer's Benefit.

In spite of the inclement weather, there
was large and fashionable audience at the
Varieties Theatre last evening, the occasion
being the benefit of George Ryer, the popu-
lar comedian.
Mr.. Ryer being one of the old school
actors, his merits are appreciated by the
people of New Orleans, and had it not been
for the miserable weather, an overfowing
house would have attested their apprecia-
ton of his talents and ability.
He appeared last evening as Sir George
Ihunder, the eccentric, but good atured
father. 1t would be useless to say that Mr..
Ryer acted this part to naturalness that
astonished the audience. He always en-
deavors to please, and to say that he pleased
last evening would be by several degrees
too faint to express the audiences manifest
pleasure. His hearty and not too stacy laugh
pleased the audience and drove away the
melancholy feeling influenced by the dismal
weather. His jolly manner, coupled with
that of Mr.. Barrett, made the evenings en-
tertainment one of the most pleasant of the
season, and MIR. Ryer can congratulate him
self. Though he may not have been bene-
flied pecuniariy as well as he expected, he
has made friends that will remember for
long time the benefit of George Ryer.
On Monday next, the beautiful drama of
the Dukes Motto" will be presented
with all the gorgeous scenery and dazzling
effects that SO characterized the perform
ance in New York. The management has
made great endeavors to make this one of
the most successful productions of the

panied by State Senator Harris and Repre-
sentative L. j. Souer, of Louisiana, arrived
here to-day from New Orleans. They inter
view the President By appointment to-mor
row. Pinchback and his party declare that
the Louisiana convention called to meet on
the second Of May is in the interest of the
Philadelphia convention, and while they
are Warmoths friends. they will not follow
him out of the Republican party. While
repudiating the Customhouse faction, their
visit here is to induce the President to re-
cOncile federal and State interests in Louis
lana. They will not go 20 the Cincinnati
convention.
The Lieutenant Governor himself went to
the White House this morning, and ar
ranged for formal interview with the
President at eleven O'Clock o-rnorrow.

bets in sums in proportion to their respec-
tive fortunes, that Warmoth never made

THEClTY HALL.

During the forenoon Of yesterday there
was some degree of fear that the canals
would not be able to stand the pressure
brought to bear upon them. Indeed, many
of the streets were OverfOwed and the
surface water accumulated in great GIanti-
ties in the rear of the city; but 1t did no
damage. The levees were found amply
sufficient for all the demands made upon
them. They are stronger in fact than ever
before, and their giving way is scarcely
possible.
A communication has been forwarded to

near the intersection of Bertrand. Persons
doing business in that neighborhood are
compelled to transport their goods over the
sidewalk. As soon the present weather
changes, a gang of carts will be sent to
haul away the surplus dirt, and FL the
holes.
Owing to the continued rain, nearly all
work in the Department of Improvement s
has stopped. The levees on both sides of

The unfortunate weather which delayed
of the Wyndham Comedy Company TO be
postponed until last evening. still continu ed
until Il late hour, and doubtless had most
disastrous effect on what otherwise. would
have been brilliant audience. The
programme, as announced, consisted of
.'Progress.' a new comedy by Robertson
never before acted here, and the popular
musical extravaganza, ''The Debutant e.
Progress IS a piece which shows to the
best advantage those members of the com
pany taking part in it. II would be super
fuous to say that, individually and collect
lively, they acted with the utmost pertec-
ton and finish; for these qualities dis
tinguish all they do, but the play
is one which requires that every
part should be played by an artist, and
that this fact was understood and appre-
ciated by the audience was sufficiently at
tested by the frequent applause. The sue
cess of Progress is undoubted, and were
it not announced tonight for the last time
We might predict for it a long run. Mr..
Charles Wyndham has gained force and
style since his last visit, and in the after
piece the debutante gave magnificent bit of
character acting. Want of space only re-
strains notice in detail of the many splen-
did artists who compose the troupe. This,
however, will be done at the earliest oppor
tunity. Tonight is the last of the present
programme-certainly the finest and most
elegant dramatic entertainment we nave
had this season.
