Missioa Of the Picayune.
The unsophisticated public cannot i'm
agine spectacle in which two hundred
and fifty live editors, mounted on tripods,
aud aeleted by the auxiliary of a committee
of City one regular contributors are seen
working like beavers to write up daily
newspaper which is sod too dear on the
streets for Picay,ine. And they pro-
nounce this picayune farce monstrous
hoax, or an invention Of some heather
Chnee and they accordingly give it wide
berth. They regard its two hundred and
fifty maHipulators as SO many Jugglers,
whose legerdemain tricks they hold in NOR
tai horror. And they A;e net fully con
vinced that its " Fifty e" scene-shifters
are any better thany many a like number
shut up within jail walls. That the Pic
ANNE is an emissary from the regions of
fire ana birthstone is an opinion which has
many believers among them. Nor is the
number Of them few who believe that, for
so obscure and illprovided representative
of his Satanic Majesty, it is the most sue
cessful imp Of darkness that has ever WIS.,
tied the earth. That its zeal in the mum
dane affairs of its master makes it quite
favorite with those who are given to ways
that are dark is manifested by the delight
which its extra issues are received III such
places of questionable virtue as the Gus
tonhouse building. Indeed, there is an
uncontradicted rumor that the majority of
it's readers are furnished with their political
opinion, as well as with their bread and
butter, within the precincts of that political
charterhouse; and that on pain of losing its
federal patronage, each Of its two hundred
|. and fifty penny "a liners is daily required to
make a profession of his political faith be-
fore the august brother-in-law, beginning
and ending with a solemn declaration, with
out any mental reservation whatever, that
he goes dead for Grant. We have not
learned whether the political orthodoxy of
the =" Fifty-one' whippers-in is subjected to
this humiliating test, for an iron-clad oath
would not weigh feather on the virtuOus
stomach that could stand it.

THE CITY HALL.

The Supreme Court, Tuesday, rendered
decision in the case of the city against John
II. O'Connor, which has connected with it
rather an interesting history of municipal
folly. AS the incidents which gave rise to
it occurred in a previous administration,
we commend it to the consideration OF the
Committee Of Fifty one.
This suit was instituted by the city Of
New Orleans to appropriate certain pool
of water called a square of ground, through
which the pipes of the city waterworks
pass, and as the defendants claimed extra
ordinary rent for the privilege, or the re-
moval of the pipes. the city was compelled
to resort to the courts for protection.
In April, 1868, the defendant bought the
property of the city at public auction, for
the sum of $4,000.
This case was tried before jury of free
holders, who, after a careful examination OF
the property, with all the facts before them,
found verdict for the sum Of $2s,oOO-a
sum, in all reason, far above its value.
From this Judgment and verdict the de-
tendant, O'Connor, appealed, and the Su-
preme Court reversed the finding, and i'll
vested the property in dispute with value
of $4,000.
Another case was also decided by the
Supreme Court, reversing altogether the
finding of the jury. We mean the Daniel
Mulligan case.
The cards containing the new tariff fixed
for carriages and cabs are now ready for
delivery at the office of the Administrator
Of Police. The proprietors of public
vehicles should lose no time in procuring
a copy and posting it within the view of
passengers, as next week the police will
arrest all drivers who fail to comply with
the ordinance.
The recent fire which occurred on board
the revenue cutter Wilderness destroyed
several of the piles in the wharf at the head
Of st. Andrew street. The loss is esti-
mated at between $3.50 and 500.
The plank roads on Calliope, Wells and
Crossman streets have been completed.
That on Calliope street connects the
square block pavements, and affords an
excellent road to the Jackson railroad
depot.
The Administrator Of improvements is at
present engaged in repairing Frenchmen
street, and Smelling the levee front.

PICKPOCKETs.-A few pockets were
picked during Mardi Gras, and all infor-
nation pointed to woman as the perpe-
traitor. Judy Clayton, alias Smith, and
Joseph Clayton, alias Orchard, English
were patiently waited for, but they had
ceased to visit the house where it was
known they at one time lived. The police
finally found the couple. and took them in.
The house was searched, resulting in the
finding of some stolen goods. Two ladies,
whose pockets had been picked, identified
the woman as the suspected person. Judy
is also charged with having stolen clothing
from a store on Canal street. The police
think they have captured precious pair.
and they may be quite correct.
