The Result Of President Grants Visit
to New York.

New York dispatch of the, 21st says Pres
ident Grant, Secretary Richardson, and Gen
Babcock were in consultation il New York
Yesterday with the leading banks and business
men of the city TO devise some means Of re-
Ieying the financial condition. The propo-
sitions of the New Workers, which were sub
mitted in writing to the President, all urged
very strongly the issuing of the so-callled
greenback reserve to the amount Of forty mil
lions of dollars. Reverdy Johnson reinforced
their appeals by written opinion, in which he
said that, although the ;tion proposed was
unconstitutional it was demanded by public
nolicy. and if he were President he would not
bogitate to take the siop. Secretary Richard
sons opposition to this movement was very
strong. and tho President stoutly supported
him. Tho Secretary said, in very vigorous
slang, that he would never consent TO it, ag
this WAS none Of his funeral. The result CT
the conference was ali order from the Presi
dent that the Assistant Treasurer at New York

Uses of Waste Paner.

Waste paper can be made to perform
variety of service in household econ
omy. Any surface like stove or crate
requiring backing can be kept bright
for long time by being rubbed daily
with waste paper. Windows, or any
glass surface that has been thoroughly
washed, can be wiped and polished with
pieces of soft newspaper. Tin that has
been secured, or silver that has been
rubbed, can be frightened in the same
way. Several thicknesses of newspaper
laid under carpets are an economical
substitute for the material found at the
carpet-stores for the same purpose.
House plants covered by newspapers
will resist the frost on cold nights, and
out door plants can be protected in the
same way. Newspapers placed between
blankets have the effect of additional
bedding. These are only few of the
uses of waste paper that could easily be
enumerated. We recommend it as a
household agent, because the supply is
unlimited, and because, after having
done duty once, it can be still available
for use as kindling, or be sold to the
dealers in the article.-ProUidenc

The attempt to recover the treasure
lost on board the Spanish ship Locadia,
wrecked off the coast of Ecuador in
1902, has failed, and the joint stock
company organized for the purpose in
San Francisco has just been closed by
the payment by the stockholders of So
share to clear off the debts of the con-
Germ. The Locadia had from four to
five millions of silver dollars on board
when she sunk, but only $500, 600 worth
was recovered, and many of the coins
were worn almost out by corrosion and
the action of the sea water The loss
in the enterprise is about $50, 900. At
one time the stock was worth over 200
per cent.

PRUDENT business men have predicted
for years that Jay Cooke & Co. would
fail. Their enterprises were so daring,
their scrupulousness so doubtful, their
liabilities so large, their exterior so
glittering, that among the really heavy
men of the country there has long been
belief that sooner or later the firm
would go to everlasting smash. Never
theless, their actual suspension, when
annJinced, was surprise. They had
stood so long under the Northern Pacific
load that even those who predicted
their failure fancied that they wonld
somehow pull through. When their
collapse was announced, there were
probably thousands of business men in
all parts of the United States and Can
ada who exclaimed simultaneously, CT
told you SO.

Government bonds falls due, there will be a
balance in the Treasury of about 800, 0OO, 900
in coin, and even after deducting that inter
Get, amounting to about 5000, 900, there
will be as large coin balance in the Treas

Tie NetrOpOlitans in LivingstOn.

The Baton Rouge tyi-weekly Co.ette-
Comet of the twenty ninth, has its story
about the cordial reception extended to
Colonel Flanagan's command by the citi-
zens Of Livingston, which it tells more in
sorrow than in anger:
Last Saturday evening l26 Metropolitan
policemen New Orleans city police) landed
at this place, armed with Winchester rifles
and navy skies, and supported by Napc-
leon gun, field brass piece Thus armed
at seven o'clock Sunday morning they took
up their line of march for the parish OF
Livingston, for the purpose of installing the
Kellogg appointees and to dspOssess the
legally elected officers of their positions.
Every one here was on the qui tire, as it was
generally supposed from the recent indie
pendent talk by the Livingstonians in their
public meetings and their reply to General
Thompson, that they really meant to do
something; but when the Metropolitans got
to the Amite "a deputaton met the advanc-
ing heroes and escorted them triumphantly
to the county seat. When We come to
recollect that this deputation consisted in
part of one of the persons who made the
tir1n reply to General Thompson that Liv-
ingston would not submit, the news brought
to town looks somewhat puzzling, and we
shall henceforth place no reliance in what
We hear or read about resistance to the
Kellogg usurpatiOn in that section of this
benighted region.

Cabinet Oiiicer's Opinion.

A Washington special to the st. Louis
Repnbiicea (Democratic), Of the twenty
seventh uitimo says:
A Cabinet officer in conversation to-day
upon the Louisiana difficulties said there
was one thing the negroes of the South had
yet TO learn, and that was to protect them
selves and not to rely to so large an extent
on the assistance of the federal govern
ment There is growing indisposition On
the part of the administration to use
any troops in Louisiana until the kel-
lngg government has manifested some
vigor IN its own defence. This feel
ing was communicated to Kellogg some
time since and 1t accounts for the aggres-
siye policy inaugurated by him toward Nc
Emery and his adherents. The full effect Of
the anticipated Indictment of McEnery for
treason will be appreciated when it is re-
membered that the court before which he
may be tried ls of the same political com
plexion which has already decided the kel-
logg government to be the legal govern
ment OF the State.
