STURGEON great many persons don't
like sturgeon meat as iood, and never eat it,
while considerable uu.nbcr are quite fond Of
it, and at this season OF the year Indulge quite
freely in the rich and savory dish. The people
Of the lower counties Of Virginia where these
fish abound would add to their resources by
smoking sturgeon steaks for consumption in
the fall and wiutcr months. Smoked sturgeon,
says the Richmond Wing, isas easily obtained

THRILLING INCIDENT a telegram from
Bedford, GA, to the Atlanta Constitution, says:
This afternoon, near this town, the engl-
necr OF the down freight train discovered little
child, about two years old, on the railroad track.
The faces of the engineer and fireman blanched
with terror as they whstled down brakes,
and saw that it was impossible to check the
train in time to save the merry prattier, who
stood astride the rail, looking at the approach
ing train, unconscious Of danger, and pleasant
light cleaning from his blue eyes. The sus-
pcnse seemed terrible, and it is said that the
black hair of the engineer is now streakcd
with gray from the intensity Of his dread.
The frcmen, however, at the risk Of his own
lite, ran forward on the eng inc, and leaning for
ward from the COW catcher, graspcd the child
and saved it from a terrible death

QUIET IN LOUISIANA.

We give President Grant and Gen. Sherman
right hearty thanks for having taken a course
at last which averted bloodshed yesterday in
New-Orleans. After what they said the i'll
tempered fulminations of Acting Governor
Pinchback and the indiscreet messages of
the United States Att0rney-General were
insufficient to create any serious disturb
ance The Fusion or Warm0th LegIsia-
ture has met and organized. No col
lision has happened, and we have the
word of Pinchback that this assemblage shall
not be dispersed as long as they do not attempt
to govern Louisiana, which is very good of
Pinchback. His course in this affair is regarded
in New-Orleans as a comedy. Here, however,
knowing something of the antecedents OF this
adventurer, it seems more tragical than cOmical.
This man, it should not be forgotten, has no
more right in the Governors chair than any
other citizen of Louisiana. There is no court
on earth that can give him that right under
the laws of the United States or the State OF
Louisiana. He was a State Senator; the
Lieutenant Governor (Mr. Dunn died, and
Pinchback was chosen President Of the
Senate in his place; while he pretended
TO be acting Lieutenant-Governor, Gov.
Warmoth was impeached by the Legislature
which had been recognized by Durell. He
then claimed to be Acting Governor by virtue
of being Acting ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS; and he
claimed to be Lieutenant Governor because
he had been chosen President of the Senate !;
and he had been President of the Senate be-
cause he had been Senator. But, all this
time, his term of Office as Senator had run
out. Indeed, he has not had even senatorial
background to set him off for nearly these
two months; yet, as "Acting Governor" he
"keeps on and ON Moreover, as Acting
Governor, to complete the farce, he has issued
to himself commission as Congressman at
Large, having claimed an election on the
Kellogg ticket Furthermore, he il candidate

New-York tribune., 1873-01-07
ONE LESSON or THE SNOW.

New-York has been lying, for more than ten
DAYS in the mire. The snow which fell on
the day after Christmas still cumbers the
streets. The crossings are still, for the most
mart. rivers of slush shoes are useless, over
shoes even are almost vanity; to walk Is
painfnl to ride tedious, and as to stay at
home is impossible, existence has been, even
to the fortunate few who use a cab, an almost
unmixed trouble, and TO the hundreds of
thousands, less fortunate, who depend upon
their legs or the street cars, a WEAKNESS and
disgust. which would be uncomfortable were it
not that the New Yorker has been trained to
dirt and slush, and expects it, as the boys in
Dotheboys Hall expected a doggng.
We are supposed to have a reformed City
Government, but it has not reformed the
streets We have new Mayor, and doubtless
q good one but the streets are no cleaner.
We have Mr.. Green as COntroller-long may
he remain in the Office which he so honestly
administers-but yet we have streets so dirty,
so horrible, that they make life burden and
citizenship a disgrace. And it is all nObody's
fault Nobody is responsible to the average
New Yorker, when he wades over his ankles
in slush, for his soiled clothes, his cold feet,
his ruined shoes, his worse than ruined
temper. He may imprecate, but his curses
are like the Pope's Bull at the COmet-they
are shots in the air; they don't hit anybody.
Now suppose case suppose New York had
Mayor, who was made by the charter re-
sponsible for clean streets. Suppose he had
by the charter, power to make them clean
authority to see that they were clean and of
course, having this power and authority, he
would be responsible-to us for their cleanness
Suppose such power and responsibility vest
ed in the Mayor, and does anybody believe
that he, let him be what he may, rogue, i'm
beetle, fool scamp, would dare TO let the
whole of NewYork wade about in slush for
ten days-or even after the first failure, for
single day. Is it not certain that he would
clean them-at all hazards, and at any ex-
pense7 And is it not just as sure that-count-
ing the wear and tear of horses, wagons,
drays the injury to mems and women's cloth
ing and health, and the fearful loss OF time
to everybody, caused by such streets as we
have now-any possible expenditure which
would give us clean streets and, keep them
clean in all woathers, would be o splendid
piece of economyi
What is wanted, to clean the streets, is
responsible Mayor. Let anybody ask Mr..
Havemeyer what he would do if he had power
to clean the streets, and IL the people looked
to him, in such a case as this, and he will, we
do not doubt, say that he would clean them.
But until the chief executive officer of the
city is thus responsible to the citizens, and
has this power and duty, without any reserve
except that he shall do the work and publish
his expenditures, we shall live in slush and
mire half the Winter every Winter. We beg
the charter makers 10 think of this

THE GREELEY STATUE.

Since it was determined that the memorial
of Mr.. Greeley should take the form of q
statue, we are glad to be informed that the
subscriptions thus far have been liberal
Some have been received at The TRIBUNE
office, and many others by the members OF
the Committee. Delay is always to be re-
gretted, when work of this particular kind
has been undertaken, since prOcrastinatiOn
though it may be fairly attributable to other
causes, appears at first glance to be- Occa-
stoned by want of enthusiasm and sincerity of
purpose. He gives twice, therefore, to such
a project who gives quickly. The arrange
ments by which the moneys to be raised for
the statue will be paid by the Committee into
the custody of Mr. Controller Green, ought to
inspire confidence in their economical and ad-
vantageous expenditure. The fund could not
have a more trustworthy Treasurer.
1t is for many reasons desirable that the
subscription should be completed as speedily
as possible. Though many very handsome
sums have already been offered, and although
this is case in which those who are able and
who revere the memory of Mr.. Greeley will
be likely to give munifcently, it is desirable
that the movement should be as far as possi-
BILE popular one. There are many who loved
Mr.. Greeley, and to whom his teachings have
been of the highest Importance in suggesting
just views Of the conduct of life, who are not
in position to give much, but who will still
be glad and proud to give something. Sub
scriptions in such cases may be placed in the
hands Of the nearest Committeeman, or
forwarded direct to THE TRIBUNE in New
York. to be publicly acknowledged, and paid
into the hands of Mr.. Green, the Treasurer of
the Fund.
1t is to be understood that full lists of the
names of subscribers will be published with
the amounts Of their subscriptions. We are
informed that there will soon be meeting of
the Committee, after which particulars of the
state of the subscription will be given to the
public. The work of erecting this statue
should be promptly and handsomely ac-
complished. In this way the men of the pres
ent generation may prove to those who are TO
come after them how greatly even in his own
time for which be worked 80 well, Mr.. Gree
ley was honored. This is a kind of testimo-
nial which, however well merited, men have
often been content to leave to their children /;

The sentence of Stokes will meet with gen.
eral approval. Everybody is rejoiced to feel
that hanging is not played out in w-York,
while hanging rems'ns the punishment for
murder, and the cells Of our city prison are
thronged with murderers. b. There is wide
and sincere sympathy for the criminals
family and there has been some doubt raised by
the remarkable evidence intended to show
that Stokes was not the aggressor. But ne
body is likely TO question the iury's unani-
