One-fourth Of $4,000 is a very respectable
sum of money, and that is the amount
drawn by Joseph Natalin, butcher, at the
corner Of Erato and Liberty streets. Mr..
Natalin certifes that he paid twenty-five
cents at the office No. 1874 Liberty street,
between Clio and Erato streets, for one
fourth Of combination ticket Nus II, 30, 81,
class 16i, in the Louisiana State Lottery.
The AMOUNT coming to the lucky winner
was promptly paid to him on presentation
of the ticket at the Office Of the company.
That single investment Of twenty-five cents
yielded more profit than could be derived
from a months business in butchering.
How many other people, inspired BY the
good fortune Of this individual, win buy a
drawing ticket in the Louisiana State Lot
.teryl There is no means Of knowing aecu-
rately, but whoever does get back $500 for
an outlay Of twenty-five cents can count
himself fortunate

brief Communications Ptblished-LOng
Ones Invariably Rgectsd-7Re Editor not
Responsible for the Sentiments Expressed
the Communications.
The Pound Nuisance.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN;
1t is evident that some writer on the Plea
yane is furiously indignant at Mr. Cockrem,
the administrator of Improvements. 1t is
at his head all the petty missiles of the
Dolly Warden organ fly in impotent eonfu-
sion. In yesterdays issue it contains a
communication very possibly written in
the Pic OfRce) which, with the editorial that
preeedes it, truly makes out a ealamitous
case. 1t relates to the Fourth District
Pound on Dryades street, between Jackson
and Philip streets, in a very sparsely
settled neighborhood, and where it has been
located for many years. Located, however,
by the Council, by whom only it can be re-
moved, Mr.. Cockrem has about as much
to do with it as the writer in the Picaysne.
But this is by no means the grand fea-
ture of the pound. The mendacious engine
of destruction has absolutely killed an en-
tire family. Its noxious gases penetrating
their nostrils was more deadly in its effects
than ether or chloroform. 1t is possible,
however, that just before dying they had
read the PieayRe. Prepared by this great
sacrifice they easily succumbed to the
efffuvia of the pound
The Pic, however, Intentionally negleets
to mention the family name. We should
like to hunt the surviving father up and
tender him our coincidence. Maybe it was
"RivegladO" himself; that sounds Spanish
He must live somewhere about. What's his
residencel
And that's strange about their taking
dead cattle and dogs to the pound! We.
thought they only took live ones, This &C
count certainly does indicate miserable
imbecility f" somewhere.
But why don't the Picayuae refer the
whole matter to the Board Of Health, where
it properly belongsl The fact is Mr. Cock
rem is poor and can't belp you any; if it was
otherwise he would shell out.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
A short time ago an inquirer asked to
know the name, genus aud origin of the
our cisterns this summer am able to give
him little light about their origin. They
come from the COWS. Ny milkman brought
one Of them tous in the milk the other
morning. He was Just as lively as any in
the rainwater. The question in my mind is,
how did this chap get into the cow If the
theory about their being generated in the
clouds is correct, would it not be good
idea to single cows G.

Pounds Vss D38f1alerleas
1t would perhaps be an interesting in
quiry for the statist to make, whether dis.
tilleries or public pounds are the more de
struetiye of human life, and which is the
greater nuisance to the surrounding neigh
berhood. Judge Cooley had occasion re-
Gently to judicially decide a certain dis
tiIlery down town to be nuisance, and or
dered it to be closed. His decision, imme-
diately it was known, made our neighbor,
the Pioayoee very unhappy, aud it has been
lamenting its unlucky faEorite ever since.
With the merits of this case we have nothing
to do at present. We merely presume that
Judge Cooley, who is certainly an able ju-
rist, and held to be fair-minded and i'm
partial where his political prejudiees are
not touched, had sufficient reason to make
the decree in the distillery case and as it
has gone up to the Supreme Court, we are
satisfied to let it rest there.
But there is another matter that requires
our attention. Inspired by an anonymous
letter and armed with two certificates, all
of which contain averments that are not
true, the Pcay,tile launches its yard-stick
at the Fourth District pound, which it de-
clares to be nuisance of the most malig-
nant type, a regular nursery of disease and
the immediate cause Of the death of whole
family. Mr.. COckrem is blamed for all this,
and the negligent parties recommen ded for
Indictment for manslaughter. Were the
great Booth on the grand jury there would
doubtless be soma wholesale hanging done
at once. But that sanguinary pursuer Of
wrong doors is reposiDg On his laurels, and
can not respond to the cry of the distressed
We shall not copy the letter of the com
planning witness, because We believe it is
from man who is trying to make up a case
against the city with view to a suit for
damages. This is evidently the object of
the attack, and we regret to see the Pic so
readily lend it's columns to what looks to us
like contemplated onslaught upon the
city treasury. But we reproduce the two
certificates offered in evidence:
NEW ORLEANS, July l, 1872.
We, the undersigned, hereby certify that
we have at times occupied the property of
Joseph +. Kendall, on Dryades street, be-
tween jackson and Philip, and have been
compelled to vaeate the same on account of
the stencil arising from the Fourth District
Pound, situated adjacent thereto.

city on Monday for New York. lie viii be
absent about month.
Several suits have been brought against
the city to compel the Administrator Of
Finance to receive Metropolitan Police war
rants for the entire amount Of tax bills.
Already so much of the cash received has
been set aside to pay interest that the sala-
ries of employees Of the Finance Depart
ment are nine months in arrears, and should
Judgments in these cases DO rendered
against the city, the interest fund will be-
come exhausted.
A resolution win probably be offered at

Of the railroad companies and the projected

to arranging whatever difficulties that may
exist between them and Fastening the COM
