Chance is said to attend all our actions.
The farmer sows his seed with a hope of
success, but is compelled to rely a good
deal upon luck in reaping his reward. The
merchant, too, is compelled to risk a good
deal in business for the sake of gain.
The chances of gain in the Louisiana
State Lottery have been computed to be
better by those who are e~ndeavOring to
work out the problem than the chances OF
success in the ordinary run Of business
Where one succeeds in making a fortune in
business, a large number continue to drag
along, or fail and go out of business bank
rupt. This is often the case where persons
have labored industriously to succeed.
We know that only a certain number can
draw prizes in each drawing of the Louis
lana State Lottery, but that number is
thought to be equal to the number Who
succeed in securing any considerable
amount of money in business, and this. IS
done without labor. The man who labOrs
and reserves a few dollars from what is de-
nominated "pOcket money" to be spent in
the purchase of tickets in the Louisiana
State Lottery, may be laying a more GER
tain foundation for fortune than the man
who invests his thousands in business. 1t
is no affair to hear of a prize
being drawn in this home institution
amounting to thousands Of dollars.

Touis;ana statute. 1t did not violate any
nrioritv established by our laws, but on the
contrary was in harmony with our rules OF
preference. 1t did not injure the rights OF
00ur own citizens for no such rights were IN
VOWED. And, finally it did infringe
the rule that the remedy must in all cases
be in accordance with the law of the forum,
for bv the law of the forum the vendor of
cotton could within five days enforce his
lien by sequestratiOn, the process adopted
by the plaintiffs in this case.
Much stress was laid in the able argu-
ments OF the intervenOrs' counsel upon the
equities of their case, and they have in
v0ked the rule that as between two innO-
cent parties the loss should fall on the one
"whO by his imprudent confidence has en-
abled the wrOng-dOer to get credit with in
nOcent parties" The case of Campbell VS..
Penn. Z Ann, 37l, from which this rule is
here quoted is clearly not IN point, having
been decided in 1852, when the
vendor of cotton had not the privilege
which, in 1869, existed for five days after
sale and delivery, both in New Orleans and
Mobile. In the case of Miltenberger VS..
Hatch, Is Ann, 528, decided in 1858, after
this privilege had been established, no al
fusion was made to the equities in favor OF
in~tervenOrs, but the vendors lien was en-
forced. We incline to think that the Elm
pIuucub GOuuutuCt was ICpOeCu Ii JuAS
case rather by the ~intervenOrs than by the
plaintiffs. But however this may be, as
matter of fact, we apprehend the rule cited
has no application to plaintiffs. They
had their lien. They had a right
to rely upon it as upon any
other legal protection. There can be no
''imprudent confidence" in trusting one's
property to the guardianship of the law.
The i~ntervenors, bankers of Mobile, knew
the law, and were aware of the possibility
of plaintiffs lien. They might have easily
asked if the cotton was paid for; they
might have required their money to be
used in paying for it. 1t is ss likely as not
that they knew it was not paid for, for they
show by evidence and urge in argument
thatin Mobile the proceeds of drafts cashed,
as they cashed that of defendants, are
usually applied to the payment of what the
ives for the cotton which he ex-
poets to pledge as collateral, Tin this way
aiding in the purchase of cotton"
Judgment affirmed.

scribed by the Board OF Supervising In
spectOrs and approved by the Secretary Of
the Treasury; and the inspectors shall keep
a record in their office of the stamps upon
ali boiler plates, and the boilers made IN,
der the provisions of this act, which they
shall inspect"
Section thirty-nine retains the House pro
vision that after two months from the pas
sage of the act no plates shall be used in
boilers unless stamped according to the pro-
visions of the act; and that sin iron boilers
already constructed with single riveted
seams. the working pressure allowed
shall be three-fourths the hydrOstatic pres
sure applied; and in no case must the work
ing pressure allowed produce a tensile strain
of more than 10000 pounds to the square
inch; and ''no boiler to which the heat is
applied to the outside of the shell thereof
shall be constructed of iron OF steel plates
of more than thirty One-hundredths Of an
inch in thickness, the ends or heads Of the
boilers only excepted.
Section fOrty-One eXempts yachts or pleas
ure boats that do not carry passengers or
freight for price or profit from the provi-
sions of the act.
Section fOrty-three retains the fourth Sec
ton of the act of March 3, 1851, and extends
to all vessels required to be inspected by
this act.
Section ffty-two strikes out the Senate
prOviso in reference to life-bOats, RATS, and
other appliances, and retains that of the
House.
Section ffty-nine provides that inspection
certificates shall cost So, and renewals 81,
which is a compromise betw cen the amounts
required by the two houses.
Section sixty-seven strikes out the Senate
amendment, "one-half for the nse of the in
former" and, in cases where the penalty is
not otherwise provided for, makes it a fine
Of $500.
Section sixty-nine provides for fog horns,
in certain cases, which can be heard one
mile in calm, still weather.
Section seventy-One provides that the act
shall take effect ION and after its passage"
Section seventy-twO provides that moth
ing in this act shall apply to sailing vessels
that are not required to be registered, en-
rolled or licensed" and strikes out the pro-
viso in reference to ''vessels of less than
twelve tons burden"

Mobile Disappointed.

Mobile was promised a musical treat in
the shape of two concerts, the attraction to
be Nine Naddi and NJ. VaIlee. who are
well known IN this city, late of the French
opera here. Mobile was billed with great
posters put in conspicuous places. The
newspapers wrote columns on the velvet
voice of Nine Naddi and promised the
concerts to be the finest affair ever given in
that city. The consequence was that the
widest enthusiasm prevailed. People
trampled upon each other to procure seats,
but alas for for human frailty, some mag
netic influence attracted the two principals
North. A telegram was received by the
managers announcing the fact that they
had left New Orleans. To say that the
Mobile people were mad would be by sew
eral degrees too faint to express their ac-
tual condition. The managers done the
right thing and returned the money to the
disappointed ticket purchasers.

Greeler NOT RnscnI Eronrh.

From Governor Palmers Great Speech
Our regular friends do not say that Gree
ley is dishonest. Indeed, they say he is
too honest to be President. They say he is
soft. They have an idea that a man must
have a little infusion Of dishonesty to make
him fit for the Presidency. Laughter.
They have an idea that Presidential metal
must be treated somewhat like silver. If
you mean to convert it into plate it is too
soft, and you must put in a little base
metal to harden it. So they insist that
Greeley is so honest that he requires a little
infusion Of rascality to fit him for the Presi-
dency. For the first time in our history we
have made a mistake in taking a man who
is too honest. Ten years after Greeley's
birth General Grant was born in the State
of OHIO, and in the course Of time some
good friend got him a place in the national
institution at West Point, and he was edu.
Gated at the expense Of the country. Now,
supposing that Grant and Greeley had had
the same opportunities in life, and had
worked out their own salvation, what do
YOU think would nave been their respective
positions today

THE CHEAPEST AS WELL AS THE BEST
Those splendid shirts, which Mr.. S. n.
Moody is now selling for the mere song Of
IS for six, are perhaps the greatest bargains
ever offered in this city. Made up in the
most durable manner, out of fine and fresh
materials, they will, undoubtedly, last as
long as any wearer could desire. And so
far as looks are concerned, we defy any
body not an expert in the selection of dry
goods, to detect any difference while only
having the slight opportunity afforded by
social intercourse with the wearer. There
fore, as the case stands, everybody who de-
sires to economic should at once invest in
a supply of these shirts. Six for So. Co

In Metropolitan warrants there is outstand-

$l58,542 II, and in appropriation certif-
Gates 1891, POS 80. Of this latter sum there
is $4,000 which is nearly ready to be paid
