Poem by j. NJ. Field.

We publish elsewhere in our columns d
remarks able poem, entitled "In the Gene
terry at New Orleans" written by the late
Joseph NJ. Field when he was only twenty
years old. In other years Mr.. Field was a
popular actor in this city, and is still re-
membered with pleasure by the habitues Of
the old St. Charles and Varieties Theatres
He was frequent contributor to the Picay-
une in it's palmy days, and was generally
known throughout the States as "Straws,"
over which signature he wrote sprlghtly
verses Of satire. HIS was busy and short
life, in which he appeared as author, actor,
editor and manager. We believe he was
father of the brilliant young Kate Field of
the New York Tribune. He died in Mobile
January %, 1856 1t is strange poem we
publish. Remarkable, considering the age
of the author, and strange when we remem-
Der his profession and dashing style Of act
ing. 1t brings to the imagination gay
and handsome young actor, leaving for a
time the com panions his wit was wont to
amuse, and standing alone in cemetery
then rapidly filling with victims of terrible
epidemic, musing on death, and raising
most subtle questions of the immortality of
the soul.

Waiting for the Verdict.

The jury, in whose hands rests the fate
heard from yesterday, but grandmother
rumOr answered for them. In the morn
ing, when the clans began to gather, stories
began to circulate. One acquitted the &C
cused; another nearly did 1t; another
made four jurors advocate convicting and
SO on through the business. Really NO
information was obtained from the jury
up to dark last evening. The devoted
twelve have been prisoners almost three
weeks, having been outside of the Gus
tomhouse building but once during that
time. On the fourth instant proceedings
were stayed because Of the absence of some
witnesses or something else, when Judge
Woods gave the jury permission to go out
and see the fremen's parade. A deputy
marshal procured three fine carrirges and
that interesting dozen few around the
streets gayly. Each carriage contained a
deputy marshal. who took care that no
barbarian conversed with the jurors. They
have Jared well in their stomachs, for Billy
Murphy, master of Postotfice No. 2, has
been furnishing the meals, and he being a
sympathetic snoozer, has done his duty
like little man.
At twelve o'clock last night the jury was
sleepings whether soundly or otherwise is
not detinitely known. Judge Woods re-
NAMED in his office until he was satisfied
that there would be no verdict.

The Firemen's Act.
Hart.

Among the many excellent laws passed al
the last session of the Legislature is act No
81, just promulgated. This bill was brought
forward Immediately after the letter OF
"Active Fireman. published in the REPUB
LICAN, and viii dc much to remedy the evils
complained of in that communication. The
necessity for some change in the manner the
city was performing the contract was ap-
parent to every one who took an interest in
the preservation Of our fire department
The law is intended to prevent the disas-
trous results fOretold by Active Fireman. -
and will meet the approval of ALL 1t first
ratities the contract made by the city and
then enacts that a revenue shall be pro-
vided for the payment Of the price Of the
contract a special fund created out of the
receipts from licenses and taxes OF insur-
anGe companies As this does not increase
the amount now required from them by law
there will be no objection from that quarter
the effect OF the law will be melelyto prevent
such receipts from being devoted to any
other purpose than to compensate the men
who save the property that produces the
revenues of the underwriters. 1t is no more
than just that they who are benefited by
the efficiency of the department should con-
tribute TO its support.
Should the fund so created not amount to
the sum needed. the Administrator of FL
nance is to supply the deficiency from
moneys from any other source than the po-
lice, interst, park and school taxes, and it
is also limited TO the amount required
The act further provides d severe penalty
for any attempt to divert the special fund
by any public officer.

Carburetted Gas.

The application of saving process to the
gas as furnished to consumers by the gas
companies of the various cities and towns
in which gas is used, has been for some
time past problem.
Messrs. Pratt & Co., at No. l69 Common
street, have hit upon the happy discovery.
By the use of very simple but ingenious
contriva the ordinary gas furnished by
the gas company is enriched by being car
buretted, and it's illuminating power thereby
more than doubled.
BY means OF the carburetter the eonsump-
ton Of gas is decreased nearly wo-thirds
1t is claimed that saving Of sixty per cent
per month can be obtained by using this
new invention. Those who have tried the
carburetter attest strongly to its efficienc y.
Among those who have used it is Mr.
Charles Lacoume, proprietor of the St.
Charles billiard room, whose gas bills tor
the months of January and February COM
bined are SO 25 less than for the single
month of December, solely attributable to
the efficiency of the carburetter. Other
prominent citizens attest to the value Of
the new invention

Ancient New Orleans.

We have before referred to the labors OF
Mr.. Thomas J. Spear in preparing record
Of historical events Of New Orleans, with
illustrations and maps. BE has prepared d
series OF plans showing the location of
every building and the ownership of every
tract of land in the city in l728-a labor of
immense proportion, notwithstanding the
fact that at that time all Of the city was
embraced in thirty-six squares of ground.
Another sketch shows the extent of the
great confagration by fire in 1888, when
$50 buildings were consumed.
He has prepared another map of fifteen
squares of ground below Canal street in
1880, the stores of which were occupied by
the prominent merchants then dong busi
ness, their names being given. There were
some $50 then; and in all that number there
are but thirty -one on the list who are living
at the present time.
Many other locations are faithfully por-
trayed. The sketches cover over 300 feet
of paper. Mr.. Spear informs US that the
cost to publish his work will exceed $50, 900,
and tslat he proposes to issue it in weekly
numbers as soon as he receives sufficient
encouragement to proceed. He estimates
the cost Of the first mum ber as $500, and
after. that he proposes that the work will
pay for itself as issued.
