A Gentle Rebuke.

A lady, riding in a car on the New
York Central Railroad, was disturbed in
her reading by the conversation of two
gentlemen occupying the seat just before
her. One of them seemed to be student
of some college on his way home for va
cation.
lie used much profane language, great
ly to the annoyance to the lady.
She thought she would rebuke him, and
on begging pardon for interrupting them,
asked the young student if he had studied
the languages.
Yes, madam; | have mastered the
languages quite WELL
"Do you read and speak Hebrew p
"Quite huently.'
"Will you be SO kind as to do me {
small favor?''
"With great pleasure, l am at you,
service"
Will you be SO kind as to do youl
swearing in Hebrew p
| We may well suppose the lady was no
annoyed ans more by the ungentlemanly
language of this would-be gentleman.

lar and sixteen cents, but being applied
only to the schools in operation, the at
tendance of pupils at which is estimated
at ninety thousand, it has given for each
child in actual attendance the sum OF
three dollars and thirty-nine cents
whereas in the States of the North and
West, the average yearly cost OF educating
a single pupil in free public school is
eighteen dollars.
The whole mum Der of schools establish
ed and now in operation is six hundred and
forty. The whole number of teachers en-
ployed and now reported is one thousand
four hundred and twenty, When these
statements are contrasted with the neglect
ed condition of the youth of the State at
the commencement of this administration,
they furnish ground of honest satisfac-
ton to those who have toiled laboriously
in securing such results.
While much yet needs to be done in Or
der to complete a foundation on which to
construct State composed of intelligent
men and women, it gives me pleasure to
recognize the energy and success with
which the work Unpopular education has
thus far been prosecuted, and, while adj
vocate retrenchment in some other divi-
sions of our State administration, con-
slider that a wise and far-sighted policy
will Justify your honorable body in pro-
viding ample means for the prompt and
efficient education of the people. Any
measures adopted to attain result so
desirable will command my cheerful sup
port.
] desire to call your special attention to
the work of education in the city of New
Orleans. The reports laid before you show
that the public schools are fully attended
and are in a prosperous condition. can
not too earnestly bespeak your interest in
and assistance to this work.
At the last session an act was passed
and approved, February %, 1871, author
izing, among other things, the appoint
ment of Board of School Directors for
the city. Provision was made for the lew
and collection of tax, by the city of
New Orleans, for the maintenance of the
schools therein-such tax being necessary
to make up the deficit between the amount
received from the general tax and the ad-
ditional amount required for the more ad-
vanced and expensive schools of the me-
tropolis. The city authorities were pro-
ceeding to levy the tax when they were
prevented by litigation. 1t was found that
the seventh section OF the general revenue
bill, approved March 3, 1871, prohibited
the city from collecting taxes in excess of
two per cent, and that the taxes already
levied exceeded that amount. The tax was,
therefore, not laid. verthcless, the Off
GERS charged with the control of these
schools have kept them in operation until
now. The State Superintendent has as
sisted them, the city government has
helped them, but they need immediate
Legislative interference and aid.

STRENGTH OF GIBRALTAR.

Until you set foot on Gibraltar.
you can form no idea of its imprec-
inability. Very properly its real
strength cannot be seen from a ship
in the bay; only when you land do
you find that the sea wall bristles
with heavy guns, and groans
beneath piles of ball; only as you
traverse its flank do you see how
formidable breech-loaders peep
from every available chink, and
powerful mOrtars lurk behind every
convenient embankment. And not
till you penetrate the body of the
rock do you get any just notion of
the marvellous pieces of military
engineering exhibited in it's
galleries. These are tunnels
excavated from the solid rock,
parallel to its outer side but some
thirteen feet there from, and large
enough to drive carriage through.
They are in two tiers, and comprise
a total length of nearly three miles.
At every thirty feet for so along
them, spacious embrasures are
outhewn, that terminate in COM
handing portfolios, which look to a
spectator outside the rock like
swallows nest-holes in a sand cliff.
These embrasures contain heavy
guns always standing ready for
action, with powder magazines hard
by. From the portfolios beautiful
peeps of the bay and the Spanish,
continent are obtained; out of theae
on the north side. you look down
upon a half-sandy, half-grassy flat,
perhaps half mile long, and as
wide or wider, connecting the rock
with the main land, and separating
the bay from the Mediterranean.
Two lines of sentry-box one at
the rock end, the other at the
distant end, mark the boundaries
of British and Spanish land, and
between these lines is the "nuetral
ground" The guns of the omar
ried embrasures, and those hidden
cannon that stud the western and
southern slopes of the rock, cover
the neighboring Spanish land, the
whole of the work is ever going on
by the fertilization of new points
that from time to time appear vul-
nerable. The eastern side of the
rock requires no protection it is a for
bidding wall, with a sand slope in
one place, but with no foothold for
anything more than few fisher
mems huts near the waters edge

[cosr1suEn FROM FIRST pAox.1

You will find condensed and compre-
hensive view of the magnitude and i'm
portance of the levee system in the report
of the Board of Engineers. You will see
that Engineer Van Pelt estimates that over
four millions of cubic yards are required
to repair the levees from Red river to Fort
jackson. You will find the Generals
Humphreys and Abbott estimate that over
six millions of yards will be required to
raise the levess to their old grade, and
over forty-fve millions of cubic yards to
the new grade. You will find that there
has been built under the Board of Public
Works 6,3SO,0OO cubic yards. You will
find that over eight millions of cubic
yards have been built in the parishes OF
Carroll, Madison, Tensas, Concordia and
Pointe Coupee. since the war, and that
over fourteen millions of cubic yards have
been built in the State, during this time.
You will also find the cause of the vast
increase in quantity over the estimates of
former years.
The Louisiana Levee Company has been
lately recognized, with some of the strong
est financial men in lie State as directors.
Mr. Gaines, of the Citizens Bank, is its
president, while Mr.. Duncan +. Kenner,
one of the oldest planters on the Missis-
sippi river, and man of great practical
experience and knowledge of the levee
subject, is its vice president and active
business manager. The company has now
cash capital of $500, 600, and has as
sumed the payment of all work contract
ed for or authorized by me during the late
season of uncertainty and delay of the
company to prosecute the work, have
great confidence now that the work will be
done promptly.
have again to speak in terms OF the
highest praise of the State militia. The
valuable service they have rendered in
preserving the peace, and the spirit and
enterprise which they have manifested in
keeping up their organizations uuder
many difficulties and at great individual
expense, entitle them to the highest COM
mendation and to the encouragement of
the State hope that you will make an
appropriation sufficient to enable them
to make an appearance creditable to the
State.
