NEW ORLEANS AND HOUSTON.

The Houston people are earnestly and vigor-
ously agtating the completion of the Ship
Channel, which will afford them safe and ex-
peditious avigation to the Gull. They have
our best wishes in their efforts to restore
Houston to her former position as a cotton
| market, and to establish direct trade with
| New Orleans The Telegraph, in article on
| the subject thus describes the benefits which
will flow from the completion Of the Ship
Channel:
In the wake of Com. Morgans steamships
from Brashear and New Orleans, Will come
lines to New York and other Atlantic ports,
and to the Yves Indies and Mexico A vast
lumber trad must grow up with the F orida
and Louisiana coast. The great cattle ship
ping trade with New Orleans and the West
Indies must of necessi y be transferred to
Buffalo Bayou. The cost Of shipment to
Galveston being saved, and he cattle being
taken from 'he'r NAIVE irie, the advan-
tages of direct bayou shipment will at once
be apparent AS these cattle are mainly a
deck load, the steamers will be enabled to
take cotton in the hold t.r the New Orleans
mayltet at very reasonable rates; and in like
manner for the "est In ia markets there will
be freight room for -four, corn meal, g ain,
bacon and other products Of the New West
Growing out of the completion Of the
Ship Channel will come the restoration of the
reciprocal relations which once existed be-
tween New Orleans and Houston. While we
may continue to buy largely from Kansas City
and other points in the New West of food
products, when the barriers to our trade with
New Orleans are removed, she will, as for
merly, largely supply our trade in those
articles. Our people will bein sympathy with
her merchants; our connections with her will
be closer and more immediate than with any
other great port. and we will largely feel her
influence. The benefits Of our intercourse
will be reciprocal. The easy facilities that
will be afforded for the shipment of cotton to
Europe, via New Orleans, ought to bring her
buyers at once to our market. Their pres
ence would at once attract cotton here for
sale. The close connections we will have
with a market whose annual receipts amount
to ,250, 600 bales of cotton will not fail to in
fuen e active operators, who will see the ad-
vantage Of securing hold on Texas cottons.
We take it for granted the rate OF freight will
be such that the inducement will be ample.

NOTES FROM THE CAMP or THE
FAITHFUL.

The Radical Convention held last Saturday
at Thibodaux to nominate Senator in the
Eighth District, rice Belden retired to the
shades of private life, was favored with nu-
merous incidents, the most interesting being
an Grafton by W. H. Keys, black member Of
the de tactO Legislature from Terre5onne. Be
fore nominations were made, Keys said that
he "had seed Gubnr Kellogg, who had
tole him as he ('The Gubn'r) hoped the
Convenshun would elect white man, f'lr de
reason dat de rebel Committee OBJ Won
-fousand Critical delegate, five hundred, in
quisitive ditto sSeventy?) had tole de peo-
pie oh de Norf dat de Publican party wal
gwine to put all OBJ de niggers in offs. For
dat reason de Gubner said as how he war
furnenst de pominashun OBJ de crllud gem
men, and wanted white fellar" Keys APP
peal had no effect however, as the white can
didate withdrew his name before the balloting
ceased, and Oscar Crozier the ''cullud gem
man, was unanimously chosen.
In the Fourteenth Senatorial District, T. T.
Allan, another "cullud gemmen," was nomi-
mated. Thus far the "cullud gemmen" are
ahead in the game, they having as Senatorial
nominees Young, Dumont Allan, Crozier,
Landry, and the 'gemmen" not "cullud -
contended for four, with Chadburn, witch
ell, and in one District (the Madison), John
son and Benham each claim to be the regular
nominees"

plies are being given to his martial demands.

DETERMINED ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE
A Man Shoots Himself and Then Tries
TO Jump into the River.

On Monday evening last a white man, nam,
unknown, was brought in a wagon from tn,
parish of St. Bernard to the Fifth Precinc
Station, bleeding profusely from wound il
the temple. He was Immediately conveyed t
the
CHARITY HOSPITAL,
where medical attendance was given to his
case On learning the above facts a reporter
Of the BULLETIN fastened to the hospital and
ascertained from the man himself the follow
ing: His name is
CHARLES ALBERT,
twenty-six years of age, and native of Sax
ony. Possessed Of about $500 in U. S. cur
rency, he left his country to seek his fortune
about three weeks since, in America
After visiting the States of Texas, Mssis-
sippi and Arkansas, he found himself in Louisi-
ana utterly destitute Of all the necessities Of
life His stock of money was exhausted and
his persistant attempts to obtain employment
in all the States which he had visited were
fruitless. Yesterday he found himself near
the river bank in the parish Of st. Bernard,
about three miles distance from New Or
leans
Weighing well in his mind the situation,
and feeling confident that he had done his
duty towards himself, he deliberately drew a
FoUR-BARREI-ED sHARPs
revolver from his pocket, and raising it to his
temple pulled the trigger.
Three attempts which he made to end his
life were of no avail, for his revolver would
not discharge its contents, but the fourth was
successful, and he fell to the ground senseless.
After lying in that condition
HALF AN HOUR
he revived, and though bleeding profusely
from his wound and in consequence very
feeble, he deliberately rolled over and over to-
wards the edge of the river.
After reaching his goal he made one deter
mined effort to spring into the water, bat in
SO doing he stuck in the qnicksand. 1t was
then o'clock in the afternoon, but by p.
NJ. he had succeeded in extricating himself
from his dilemma, and'slowly and gradually
dragged himself along the road to the nearest
house where he was taken care Of over night by
strangers and in the morning brought to the
city.
HIS CONDITION,
when visited at the hospital was most critical,
and there is little or no hopes Of his recovery.
His wound is only a particle of an inch be-
low the right temple and is necessarily so
painful that the doctors can do nothing for
him. His cries of agony could be heard at
some distance, and as each one approaches
him he begs for Gods sake for some one to
kill him
