RETRENoHMENT AND REFORM

The Right Kind Of Police Jury at Last
They Work Reform Instead of Talk
ing 1.-THE Outlook for Ascension
Frightening.
1t is with genuine pride and pleas
ure that we call the attention of the
readers of the CHIEF to the official
minutes of last Saturdays session of
the new Police Jury, published in
this issue. The good work they have
accomplished will be apparent to all,
and will elicit the encomium and APP
probation of every person who feels a
real interest in the prosperity of our
parish.
BY reducing the salaries of the va
rious officers, forbidding the payment
of witness fees in criminal prosecu-
tons before Justices of the Peace,
repeating the enactment which do
mates six hundred dollars per annum
to the Parish Judge in defiance of law,
and abolishing the Office of Warrant
Clerk, the jury have been enabled to
bring the estimate of annual expendi-
lures within the limit of taxation, and
by strict adherence to the plan of
action inaugurated at their last meet
ing will run the parish government
hereafter upon cash basis and pre-
vent the accumulation of great flood
of parish scrip" such as hangs like
milestone around the necks of the
people at the present time.
Ample provision for the outstand-
ing Indebtedness will be found in the
funding bib which was passed by the
recent G General Assembly, and the pro-
mulgaden of which is looked for daily.
Messrs. Landry, Hebert, Heyman,
Leblanc and Rice have a golden OPP
portuaity to make an enviable repu-
tation for themselves as worthy pub
lie servants if they will continue as
they have begun, and from our per-
sonal knowledge ofthe gentlemen we
feel confident that this they will not
fail to do. They have the good wishes
of the masses, the property holders
and the CHIEF, which viii always de-
light to give praise where praise is
due" and lift its voice to honor the
men who would tighten the financial
burdens of the community.

for and spoke for about five minutes,
his remarks eliciting universal appro-
val. When the speaker had conclu-
ded, it was moved and adopted that
the roll be opened, and ninety one
new names were placed thereon, after
which the club adjourned subject to
call of the president, with the great
est good feeling apparent among the
members.
The banner fourth has set an ex-
ample to the other wards of the par
ish which We hope they will not be
10th to follow. The cloud of threat
ened discord has cleared away, and if
the Republicans throughout the par
ish will be as true to themselves as
those of the fourth ward have been,
the political sky will be lovely to con-
template.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 4th, 1874.
EDITOR CHIEF
The Republican Court, and the So
ciety which forms around it in the
National Capital, is, perhaps, seldom
destitute of women who are distin-
guished for wit, beauty, and extra
ordinary talent. In the White House
Mrs. W assaington reigned, and became
celebrated fer stately dignity. Mrs.
John Adams, for strength of mind,
acumen, and literary taste the
| daughters of Jefferson for their social
virtues and charms; Mrs. Madison,
Mrs. Quincy Adams, Mrs. Tyler, Mrs.
Polk, Harriet Lane, and the daugh-
tiers of Andrew johnson, either for
| beauty, molesty7 or good taste, and
intelligence, we've great favorites, and
in tlleir several ways won attention
and due commentator.
But when the White House occu-
pant 8ssised to furnish the bright par
ticalar star for wonder or Worship.
society at large made the attempt
and ordinarily with due success. Mrs.
Madison continued to reign in fash
ionable circles for many years after
her husband retired from the Presi-
deBcy, and when plain, honest Mrs.
Jackson did not appear in the frma-
nent, the gay and dashing, and won
derfnl Mrs. Eaton, rose to the merid-
ian, and turned the heads of warriors
and statesmen, created hopes, and
dissolved cabinets with equal and
ready facility, and was more of po-
litieal magician than willy Van Buren,
aa2aself A sketch of this lady has
recently appeared in one of the city
wherein she is treated as q
subject of the olden time, though it is
but dozen years since she was about
in onr streets, in a good state of men

To Hen. Pierre Landry, President Ascension

Dear Sir-You are respectfully informed
that owing to the fact that the December
AppoptisnInent for 1873 was not made until
February, 1874 ut which time all the funds.
in the State treasury to the credit of the
Connssn School Fund was apportioned; also.
that theTe will not be any settlements with
tax collections by which the funds of eighteen
! hundred and seveaty-foar will be paid into
the treasury before May, therefore an APP
po<tiennaenf for March can not be made.
This viii necessitate careful inquiry as to
the exPedieRey of incurriag obligations
which year Board may find It difficult to-
meet Not uatn September and December
can we hope to have sufficient funds in tho
treasury to make apportionments Of any con-
siderable amouat
In view of these facts let me urge upon
your Board the exercise of great caution III
the administration of its affairs, that your
work may be saved embarrassment and the
eaHse of Education injury.
While it is desirable to have as MANY
schools in operation as it is possible to main
tain with the revenue at command, it is un-
wise and prejudicialt to our interests to es-
tablish and maintain schools at the expense
of the teachers, which is the ease Whenever
their kstfhE1cS dkN iR OaKtIufnckH

CATIONS and prolnpt payment of all indebted
ness, will secure tbs eonfidenee of the COM

TIE NEW YORK WORLD-SOME
r- ERRORS N0PRETTED


!: The New York World is not q good au-
-thority in matters of news, especially news
connected with the Administration. Its
foreign dispatches some time ago, made up,
as they were, in the home office, or in the
neighboring city of Brooklyn, excited the
laughter of the whole American press.
Everybody saw at a glance that they were
''bogus, % without the slightest foundation
in fact. The unenviable reputation the
World thus acquired in regard to foreign
affairs Il now bids fair to retain SO far as
Washington is concerned In q recent
issue it said: 1.-THE pretty authentic in
formation which reaches US this morning
'fas to the ways and means by which Mr..
Assistant Secretary Sawyer has been finally
persuaded to remove himself out of the
Treasury is Of q character to excite lively
compassion for Mr.. Sawyer's friend, the
President. 1t appears that Sawyer has
ffbeen literally thrown upon the hands of
President Grant by the new Secretary Of
''the Treasury. General Bristow, it seems.
declined, like man of sense, to take COM
.''mand Of boat unless he could also take
command of her crew. He made itan indis-
''pensable condition of his acceptance of
'fhe post offered him by Grant, that he
'fshould not be hampered in the choice Of
CHS colleagues and subordinstes.
Now, we have something more than pretty
authentic information" for saying that there
Is not one word of truth in the above state
ment. The President had no consultation
whatever with General Bristow on the sub
ject Of his own appointment or of the res
ignaticn Of Mr.. Sawyer prior to his NOM
ination, SO that the story of the World
is simply manufactured out Of whole cloth,
and is without the shadow of shade of
truth. The same is true also in regard to-
Mr.. Banfeld. The compassion is, there
fore, entirely thrown away. The World
is. as we have said, utterly untrustworthy
as a newspaper, and is kept alive by gang
OF speculators in South American railway
and canal schemes. and by few broken
down politicians in New York.
