The Episcopal Council.

The Annual Council of the Protestant
Episcopal Church of the Diocese Of Louisi-
ana continued it's session yesterday at st.
Paul's Church, Camp street. Thus far the
business of the convention has not been of
an exciting character, though this feature
is probably not to be regretted. The less
hot debate there is at such place the more
harmony, we presume, is indicated.
The number Of clerical and lay delegates
from different parts of the State is quite
large. Among the latter, the members OF
the bar seem to predominant, showing a
harmony between 1.-The law and the gospel
which is quite refreshing. Thus from. Shreve
port we have George Williamson, j. Z.
Moncure, and Mr.. Duncan; from st. P aul's,
New Orleans, James Mcconnell; from Trim
ity, New Orleans, G. w. Race; from Christ
Church, Maurice Grivot and Judge Howe;
and from Calvary, Edward Phillips.
The bishops address was delivered on
Thursday, and was characterized by the
usual merits which might be expected from
that excellent, warm-hearted and hard
working man. Rev. DR.. Lawson delivered,
on the same day, an address on the Suwanee
University.
Yesterday various subjects of interest to
churcbmen were discussed, such as the
new :.hymnal," the extension OF the Church,
missionary work, the Episcopal fund, and
the beH method of raising funds Tor chart
| table and pious uses.
The session will be resumed to-day. and
| interesting exercises may also be expected
on Sunday.

Another ..Nlass,, Meeting.


The meeting of the Twelfth Ward Re-
form Club last night, in Jefferson, was
called to order in the selection OF H. b.
Shropshire for president, and the proceed
ings began in the speech-making of Captain
Greathouse, whose white hat shone with
undiminished lustre. The Captain told tine
same old story, and one more exposition
was added to the bundle explaining the OBJ
jects Of the Reform party and the duty OF
all good citizens to vote on ''our slde." Mr..
c. E. Buck began by saying he was no
political speaker, and that the sixty hearers
must expect neither rounded sentences nor
flowing words. The young lawyer then
went Oh to explain why he had joined the Re
form party, which amounted briefly to
this: That seeing no hopes Of reform in
any other party, he felt compelled to unite
his destinies with new one. He said the
Republicans didn t want it; that the Demo-
Gratis couldn't get it if they would, and
wohldn': if they could: therefore the Re
formers are going to win. He wanted to
know if the Democrats, getting into power,
would accomplish reform, and answering
10 himself, he charitably added that there
were no hopes of them getting into power
anyhow Mr.. j. NJ. Harding then rose into
yiew-a youth of about twenty-three sum-
mers, and new in the political arena. He
said, and went on to show what before
had been denied, that the Reformers
were the third party for which so many
eager souls had heretofore been looking, and
in reference to the remaining parts of his re
marks, it struck the reporter very forcibly
he had heard the same thing before. Non
plussed for a time to detect the origin of
what he felt sure was only reverberation,
he finally discovered it in sudden burst
kennard-and then was satisfied. Mr.. Robert
J. Connolly referred to the good old times,
and III answer to imputations that the
Democrats were responsible for the good
ness of those times, said that the concern
died with Stephen A. Douglas, Esq; thu t
was his opinion. He grew mathematical
on the -four question. and cast his accounts
in the days when it was eighteen dollars a
barrel.
Mr.. O. w. Hord, gentleman from Ohio
had not come prepared, and he referred to
the present taxation, "of which he had been
informed since his arrival in the city," and
that he did not believe the man who told
him 50. He went largely into generalities,
and branched out on the open comm on of
the abstract. His idea of the strength of
the Reformers was that they should winnow
out all who would oppose any one set of
men; in other words, that its mission was
to take in everybody who would join it,
After Mr. Shropshire had extended an in
vitation to the sixty persons there to join
his club, the sixty 'folded their tents and
silently stole away'-music by the band.
The lamps were put out to silence the small
boys, and then all was over, and Lawrence
square was alone in its glory of coal oil
lights. An outsider at the meeting said of
its proceedings and speeches: That all these
grand sentiments were like the wind in a
blowgun, that went in one end and came
out the other

THE CITY HALL.

The dullness observable in business cir
cles for the last few days is noticeable in
municipal affairs. Nothing OF interest ap-
pears to be going on. Among the Admins
traitors little breeze has been stirred in
reference to the new pump to he tried on
the canals to-day. This is the force pump
of Mr.. Hunt, and which he proposes to sell
to the city. If it answers the purpose
claimed for it, the acquisition will he valu-
able to the city. Some new and improved
machinery is absolutely indispensable for
drainage purposes. If it can be purchased
at the cheap rates offered by Mr. Hunt, and
at the same time accomplish the ends de.
signed for it, the city may esteem itself for
tunate.
The completion Of the levee on the oppo-
site side of the river, now being conducted
by the Depart ment of Improvements, and
under the supervision of the Surveyor, Will
render the river defenses against an over
flow perfect The recent eGuinoctial has
established the fact that we have nothing
more to dread from the lake or the canals.
Nothing definite has yet been concluded
on by the Council in reference to the fire.
mems claim for interest on the amount due
them by the city. 1t will in all probability,
however, be allowed. There. can be no
question Of the justice and rightfulness OF
the demand. The only doubt is as to the
city's ability to pay it.
There is a probability that the certificates
of Indebtedness put out by the city will go
up in the market. 1t is to be hoped that
they will. A good deal Of loss has been
sustained in consequence Of their depre-
ciated value by laborers and others. There
is, seriously, no good reason why they
should not be at par.
TIE assessment rolls are not yet complete,
although being prepared as rapidly as pos
sible.
Mr.. James Freret, in a communication to
the Mayor, suggests that the iron building
be removed to locality where its lower
floor could be occupied as markethouse,
and the upper portion as reservoir. He
is of the opinion that it could be filed with
water every night, and might be of great
service in case Of fire.
The engines of the Waterworks are at
present running day and night, to supply
the loss of water sustained by the breaking
of the reservoir. By this means sufficient
is constantly on hand for the extinguish'
ueut of fires.

The Black Crook.

A large and extremely enthusiastic andi-
ence greeted the fifth performance of the
Crook last evening, at the Academy.
There were but few changes in the pro-
gramme. Everything superfuous was strick-
en- out, and one OF the most attractive and
not too tedious programmes was presented.
One of the most pleasing features in the
programme is the delineations of Mr.. Col
Inns, who, by the way, has become quite a
favorite. His droll yet witty and salient
points take the audience by storm. He is
an old New Orleans favorite, but did not
come heralded, as he should have done.
Many persons are unaware that he is in the
city. He is comedian Of merit. Ambitious
and talented, he deserves all the praise
that can be bestowed upon him. In his
character Of Greppa he does not have the
opportunity to display his merits; yet he
makes it one Of the most interesting and
amusing parts in the whole piece. His ex-
quisite voice vibrates with beautiful SYM
metry on the ears of the audience, and
ELECTS round after round of applause. His
song of There's Where You make Mis-
take" does not give him the scope requisite
TO give just exhibition of his vocal abili-
ties, vet it pleases.

Local Intelligence.

CRIMINAL COURT-Earle and Garvey
were on trial yesterday for killing old Mrs.
Zollinger, and all the testimony was gone
over again. When Attorney General Belden
brought up Earle's confession, so-called,
Judge Atocha, for accused, made an effort
to prevent its introduction, but the court
permitted it to be read to the jury. Judge
Atocha filed four exceptions to the ruling.
He laid particular stress on the fact that
the confession was sworn to by accused, and
that the document was without the sigma
lures of two witnesses. The attorneys will
argue the case to-day, should they feel in
clned.
The second trial of the case of the State
VS.. Edward Donnelly, charged with the
murder of Dennis Callaghan kelly, on
the twenty seventh of September, 1870, at
corner of Laurel and St. Andrew streets,
which was fixed for yesterday morning, was
continued to Friday, the third Of May.
The cases of Robert Hunter, charged
with breaking into house n day time,
with intent to steal, and William Clark,
charged with larceny, were continued in
definitely.
The sentences of Eliza Williams, John
Handy, Maggie Collins and j. Martinez,
were not pronounced.
The grand jury returned not true bill
for murder in the case of Of John Barrall,
charged with having killed Samuel Scott.

JanauSchek.

The fattering evidences of public appre-
citation that have heretofore been paid to
the acting Of the skilled Janauschek are
destined to be repeated during her engage
mert which will commence Monday eve
ming, at the St. Charles. Mary Stuart, the
unfortunate and lovable Queen, the op-
pressed majesty of whose mien raises sym
pathy by the simple story, Invested of orna-
ment. and the gorgeous emblazonry of high
strung sentiments, becomes, in the acting
of Janauschek, living glory. too sad to be
real, too strange to be fictitious. The
language Of Schiller follows history close as
the future follows time. The reading of
this actress gives to the dull words a new
beauty, and her path to the tragic end is
strewn with the individual recollectlons Of
the beholder of all that is beautiful, and
true, and good. Box sheet now open.

most of the parties present, when the buei-
ness seemed to be Of decidedly another
nature. t..
But little was done beyond the choosing
of Messrs. Eugene Tisdale ard Joshua

fourth is harmonious, and waiting for
