The Debt of Louisiana.

New Orleans Letter to the New YORK Tribune
The debt of the State of Louisiana, at
the time the State was reconstructed, was
about 81, 600, 900. On the lst Of January
the bonded debt was, according to Kel-
logg's State Auditor, S2l, sol 500, and it
is currently reported that Gov. Kellogg has
since signed additional bonds fo1 the North
Louisiana and Texas railroad the miscel-
laneous debts of the State were, according
to the same report, 81, 2S2, 44I as 0
this must be added the warrants issued by
the present ADMINISTRATION, during the
first four months it was in power, to pay
the expenses Of its Legislature, and all
the general expenses of the government
before the collection of taxes began. The
contingent debt Of the State, which erery-
body believes it will have to pay. was So
4S3, 6O247. This makes the total amount
OF bonded and miscellaneous debts for
which the State was actually and contin-
gently liable on the lst of January last
according to Auditor Clinton S29. 597,-
S49.q5 The bonds and warrents issued
since that time will swell the amount to
some thirty odd millions Finally, the
/ Legislature has granted State aid to vari-
/ Gus corporations amounting to ST ,4S9. 900,
the bonds for which have not yet been
/ issued Thus the present liabilities Of the
State and appropriations voted by the
/ Legislature for which bonds are yet TO be
issued, are about SIX times as great al
they were when the State was reconstruct
ed, while there is very little to show fol
/ the increased Indebtedness.

Arthur, after attending Divine service in
the Protestant church yesterday, received
all the members of the diplomatic body in

be said that the poor thing was saint, and
was powerless to hold back the prince from

/ it is now discovered that no lady is more

that in her dress and behavior she is about

certain it is that the German families now
representing royalty in England are motor

that they have rendered the upper classes
here equally lax For example, Sir Johr
Murray made an earnest effort at the an

shut up on Sunday, but in vain an over
