Judge T. G. Hunt must not seek ex-
emption from criticism when he enters the
political arena any more than other men.
In fact, the greatest federation is due to
gentlemen who have not got the sense of
Mr.. Hunt; and the strongest censure should
be visited upon those who ought to know
better than to commit such mistakes as
Judge Hunt did in the Democratic con-
vention.
A great many parties who are holding
back their taxes will discover, at the end
of their obstinacy, a bill of costs that will
teach them a lesson that they will not
forget for whole year.

This is the beginning Of business. 1t is
the mere door to that which is to follow.
AS one enterprise always necessitates an
other, Just as one new piece of furniture
creates the desire for an entire set. When
the city of New Orleans becomes the grain
distributor of the South, all the depend
ent country which must seek its food here
will also be put to its ambition to con-
struct new and improved means of con-
nection with the central market Rail-
roads will be built in every locality; rivers
will be made navigable; roads will be i'm
proved. The spirit of progress, being
seen, will be embraced and cultivated in
every portion of this long neglected Sec
ton. Capital that has heretofore refused
to seek our market will roll in upon us as
it has rolled in upon the West, and under
it's influence the land will bloom and bios
som as the rose.
It NAV be said that this combination
threatens to assume the shape of vast
monopoly that will ride like colossus
over our smaller and weaker enterprises.
Not while the Mississippi river rolls in
freedom from the mountain to the sea.
Before we can be put under foot the rail-
road men must disperse the mighty
waters of our inland sea from their chan
mel Besides, the line of road from Mo-
bile to Columbus will always compete
with the road from New Orleans to Cairo.
We are, therefore, doubly protected, with
out considering that it will be to the in

freights at the lowest rates in order to in

Eileen Oge at the Varieties.

This new drama will be presented for the
criticism of the patrons of the Varieties
theatre tomorrow evening. The scenery
by Mr. George Pigott is picturesque and ar
tistic, and the cast will be such as can only
be selected from the excellent dramatic
company of that theatre.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin describes
the play in this manner:
EILEEN Oge," the new Irish drama by
Edmund FalcOner, was performed at the
Globe last Monday evening, for the first
time in this city. 1t has kept the stage
throughout the week, and bids fair to run
for month or more. As it is
played at the Globe, eileen Oge" is in
vested with every charm and grace which
the most perfect and generous stage setting
and the most finished and satisfactory act
ing can afford. The scenic opportunities
presented by the play are of the best posi-
bic description, and the artist has turned
them to the best account. Three scenes
are especially elaborate. and beautiful
THE Hawthorne" shown in the first
and fourth acts. make an exquis-
tie picture. In this scene Mr.
Moriarty's rustic home clambered over by
blossOming roses is to be seen on the right
with the fences and stiles of an Irish farm
in the centre of the foreground. In the left
middle distance stands the BLACK Abbey
Church." picturesque in its quaint archi-
lecture; and an exquisite background of
tranquil streams and verdant hills retreshRs
the wandering eyes. THE Hay field" in
the second act, with its ton of real hay
pleases every simple taste by its quiet
beauty while almost every detail natural
to such a scene is faithfully represented
The stage is fairly crowded with hay makers
of that idyllic sort which fiOurishes in the
atrical Ireland; pitchforks are reclzessily
welded by the bare, brown arms Of sturdy
lads the gay handkerchiefs and petucOats
Of the lasses add spots of brilliant color
to the picture and-need it be added
handsome ankles and calves are eX-
hiUited with amiable recklessness. The
jolly ''haymakers run" IN which all hands
and feet participate, is also unique and
entertaining feature of tile scene, and will
afford a genuine delight to every soul that
has a sense of rhythm. The
"OId Water Mill" in the third act, is also
extremely well done, and all the incidents
are cleverly worked in The acting, as we
suggested just now, is admirable, not a part
in the piece being carelessly Orinsutiiciently
taken. The success at
tanned by eileen Oge," as might be sup
posed, is immense. Each night finds the
theatre filed in orchestra and dress circle,
and with the gallery cramped to its utmost
capacity.

ing moreover not disposed in favor of a
sea-faring life, in consequence of an over
dose of Robinson Crusoe in his earlier DAYS,
he determined to raise the green sea turtle
in the back yard of the ''Press." He ac-

champion beer guzzler. An inch of sand at
the bottom, the rest water, and the little

Plnouernines Rennhlicnns.


At meeting of the Eleventh Ward Radi
cal Republican Club of Plaquemines parish,
on the twentieth ultimo, Hon. Harry Ma
honey made very powerful and lengthy
address in defense of Governor WarmOth
and his administration, which was listened
to with the closest attention, and fire.
quently applauded in the most enthusiastic
manner.
At the close of this address, the notorious
ex-Sergeant Garrett, CustOmhOuse officer at
Quarantine Station, rose to his feet, and in
most fippant and offensive manner,
charged Governor Warmoth with certain
crimes, and then tried to substantiate his
base charges by proofs which failed to
criminate the Governor, but certainly, if
true, eliminated himself.
The Plaquemines Republican says:
1t was complete illustration of Shake
speare's "engIneer hoist on his own petard"
and of the scorpion, that in its insane fury
gives itself the death blow intended for its
enemy.
This unintentiOnal exposure induced Mr..
MahOney to interrupt him and tell him in
severe, but merited language, that if he
tUafF0Ut) nau O6en really guilty. OF the
crimes which he had just confessed, he was
filter for a penitentiary than a United
States CustOmhOuse, and had better be in
the lobby of some venal Legislature, with a
pocket full of brides, as has been his prac-
tice, rather than in a respectable assembly
of citizens, as he was on this occasion CON
tossing his infamies, and franticaIly invit-
ing others to become as vile and infamous
as himself
Mr.. MahOney continued Friends and
fellow citizens-I feel proud that Caseys
pet, Garrett, after having completely
failed to criminate Governor WarmOth
and his friends, has just as COM
pletely succeeded in eliminating him
self, and stands before you self-con-
victed of the crime of bribery-One of the
most infamous of Crimes-and was I'M
worthy to associate with true Republicans,
but was fully worthy of the fellowship of
the old Ku-klux Bourbon Democracy of
Louisiana, whose battles he was insidiOusly
fighting in a stolen Republican uniform, but
of which he would soon be stripped and
shown to the world in all his naked, hideOus
defOrmity. Mr. MahOney further said he
believed in the doctrine of Pythagoras,
relative to the transmigratiOn of souls,
which was fully proved by Garrett HIM
self, who was, beyond all question, ANNA
ted by the soul of Judas IscariOt, and would
at last probably end like him, after selling
the Republican party to the Democrats.
Garrett did not reply, and the victory over
the CustOmhOuse and its doughty cham
piOn was complete.

The Fashions.

A fashionable lady friend thus winds up
her last Paris letter to Eli Pefkkiif Perkins: q" Tel
your lady friends that demi toilet hats in
Paris are as high as sugar-lOaves-the
veriest steeples-tell them that dress hats
have the highest and jauntiest high crowns,
with long plumes, streamers behind, and
little wells"
Almond, leather, wood and fax colors are
the coming tints. No more green and yell
low and blue in antipodes, but harmony is
aimed at by the leading French mOdistes.
OppOsites are not worn, but different shades
of the same color are the style. Think of
dress thus: AlmOnd-cOlOred hat, with wood
colOred trimmings, underskirt of dress,
almond color, fiOuneed with wood (yOu
know almond is little darker than wood,
and straw gloves; the sleeves and skirt of
tunic show some harmony. Again think of
fax color, which is still lighter than wood.
How lovely fax color looks over wood, and
then yOu have such a chance at all the
shades of straw to blend in harmony with
it. Symphonies in color, in a word, is the
furOre. Elephant color and Bismarck
brown are still in vogue, but they will give
place to wood, almond, opal, pea-gTeen
(which is ordinary green with white in it,,
and straw cOlOrs alter Easter.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

City tens have never been lower than 49,,
of much error There is in the city an
abiding faith in this class of securities which
tax.resisting associations only encourage,
inasmuch as the slight depreciation is met
by desire to invest. A single banker-in
fact, one of the signers of the tax-resisters'
dOcument-invested $4,000 in these bonds
last week, and other transactions similar in
object, though not in amount. show not
only in this, but in other lines, that tax
resistance is simply fol-de-rOl, and will only
be carried on under mOOnshine. What de-
preciates city bonds is the reflection that
such connections will prevent the pay
ment of the July coupons. But that
is all nonsense, as careful business head
will not allow the payment of interest to be
only thirty days off before an attempt is
made to provide for it. A buying party has
already been formed to go on and purchase
" cities" and if there is not demand, as
seemed to be the case yesterday, the buyers
are like the snake which remains stationary
until the bird falls directly into the jaws.
The tax resistance is encouraged by the
bears, who are doing both blowing" and
buying.
As a description of the business done yes
terday, we know of nothing better than the
remark of one of the spectators "If you
come down here Sunday there's nothing
doing, but somebody will tell you the price
of things; to-day there isn't anything doing
mol. anybody to tell the price"

The Opera.

There was a moderately full house last
night at the Opera to witness the second
rendition of Weber's beautiful "Freyschutz, :
which was sung Thursday night with so
much eclat.
The artistes all sang well, but Miss
Levielli's exquisite solo in the second act
deserves especial notice. H is tn aFia ef
wonderful depth of sentiment, and while
containing little that is startling in the way
of effects, is yet one of the sweetest ever
written. Miss Levielli touched all hearts
by the pathetic manner with which she rem
dered it, winning the warmest applause.
The great scenic display in the latter part
of the second act is really the finest thing
we have ever witnessed of the kind on any
stage. When the curtain fell the audience,
who had been spellbound, signifed their
delight in a round of applause. We do not
know the gentleman's name who has the
getting up of these things at the Opera, but
he deserves all praise.
Mme. Dumestre sang charmingly. There
is something winning and pleasant about
her manner and an earnest heartiness in all
her performances which make her general
favorite. Her singing is always character
lied by delicate truthfulness and certain
naivette that please both the ear and the
eye.
Mr. Blum and Mr.. Perie both did well;
the latter seemed in unusually fine voice,
and in the great solo at the close of the act
he was particularly fine. The role is a little
heavy for his voice, being written for a
basso profundo, but nevertheless, he makes
it very effective.
On Monday night Mr.. Perie takes his
benefit in Roland, and we hope it may be
as successful as he deserves.
