NEW BOOKS.

"Under the Trees" By Samuel Iranaeu,
Prime. Published by Harper l. Brothers
Kahn & Co., New Orleans.
OF this work the Arcadian says:
The greater part Of this book is the very
perfection Of porpycock. The volume is
written by . gentleman of education and piety,
who has travelled much, seen the world, has
some reputation for culture, writes, in
the main. excellent English, and we have
no doubt is deservedly respected by the large
number Of people who are familiar with his
name. But these attributes and accomplish
ments have not saved him from putting t.
gether thirty chapters, fve-sixths of which
may justly be classed as first-class palaver

THE COMMITTEE OF SEVENTY.

The resolutions adopted by that most re
putable, influential and solidly representa-
tive organization within the borders of the
State. and published by US to-day, fully sub
stantiate our report of the action Of the
committee, and ut the same time clearly dem
onstrlte the absurdity Of the position Of the
Picay,tne.
That journal innocently stated yester-
day that their ''repor. of the action OF the
Committee of Seventy. on Thursday night,
contained a sigh tee ,nical error" How great
was that error the resolutions themselves vii,
prove and they will show that the Plea
yune's report was absolutely false and err
roneous from beginning to end. 1t was pub
chievous spirit of obstinacy when that paper
WAS in possession of better and more reliable
information.
The persistency Of the Picay4ae in this mat
ter is easily understood. 1t was 10th to yield
the point which they had made, to the fleet
that its political course had been endorsed by
the Committee Of Seventy. That journal, Of
late, has received SO little appreciation from
any quarter, that it clings with wonderful
tenacity to this imaginary recognition on the
part of that most honorable AMI influential
body in the State"
What must be its disappointment and cha
grin now, on discovering the fact that the adj
vice and opinions of the Picayune have been
severely ignored and repudiated?
We think we will live long enough to see
that paper change its base, and, perhaps, ex-
tort from it again the admission that, las a

Captain JOHN X. SCOTT was accidentally
drowned near Shreveport, on LIST March, abou,
midnight, 1874. Captain Scott was wel-known
among steamboatmen on the Mississippi Red and
other rivers, a skillful engineer. For MANY

and no superors. Generous to a fault. he was
always ready to lend helping hand to those in

sided at the time of the accident
During the fearful epidemic which devastated
Shreveport in 1873, he was among the first VIII

to the sick, the dyins and the dead. Night and

KELLsGG'S FOOLISANlsS.

article OF the BULLETIN on the political situa
ton in this State, says among other things:

LIFE OF CAPT. JOSEPH FRY.

We have had tie pleasure Of glancing over
the manuscript of the life Of the noble martyr
and Christian gentleman, Capt. Joseph Fry,
which has been written by Mrs. Jeanne Mort
Walker, of this city. The work is one Of pure
and disinterested friendship for the widow and
children Of Fry, to whom the proceeds are to
be given, and we feel sure will be hailed with
pleasure, not only by Americans upon whom
he shed undying lustre by his glorious death,
and by those in whose cause he was basely
murder d.
The literary merit Of the book is Of a
very high order and it will be
found MS interesting as romance from
first to last. Indeed. the life Of Fry was a
r,mance full delightful incidents and thrilling
adventures nd Mrs. Walker has worked up
tie abundant material to which she has had
access into story which we predict will elicit
the wnrmest encomiums from the critics.
The following is the dedication:
Dedicated to the friends of the widow and
orphans to the compatries OF the hero !; to
the lovers of free Cuba to his brothers, the
Fellows of the New Orleans Academy Of
Sciences to Sir L .mbton Lorraine, the Brit
ish defender Of American honor.
The book is now read for publication,
subscription lists being placed It all the prin-
cipal book stores, and we trust they will be
filled up rapidly, in order that the expenses
of tie first edition may be betrayed. and
the proceeds OF the work augmented.

CLAIM AGAINST THE CITY.

The wretched condition of the Nicholson
pavement, on ST. Charles Avenue, has at last
resulted in a claim for damages on the part of
a Mr.. Conoliey, whose wagon was pretty well
smashed in one OF the tremendous holes or
chasms with which the paving abounds We
are not sorry to see this claim made, and have
,, no doubt others will follow thick and fast
The thicker and faster the better, as then the
city will be forced, as the less expensive and
troublesome horn of the dilemma, to give US a
decent roa iway on that long neglected avenue
The following communication from Mr.
Conoley speaks for itself:

he did not want to know. Two days after my

WORSHIPING FALSE GODS.

Since the advent Of Radicalism into tn

If our memory serves us rightly, the propri
etor Of the Times was mainly instrumental il
having the negro Armstead put upon the Flu
sion ticket He was also one Of the mos
prominent leaders of the Liberal Republican
movement in 1872, and after his election OF
that ticket to the State Senate, he favored +
compromise with Kellogg, and it required the
combined efforts Of the New Orleans Senator,
| to restrain him from taking his seat in the
Kellogg Senate.
Now we find him the first and most active
in assailing the Democrats Of New Orleans in
aecting upon the iberality and integrity of the
party here, and INDUCING in insinuations en-
tirely gratuitous and unwarranted Again,
when it is borne in mind that the usurper

brother, co-proprietor, the appointment Of
clerk of the District Court of his parish, it
would seem that the efforts of the Shire yeport
Times to divide and distract the people Of
Louisiana by opposing the action Of the Dem
ocratic State Central Committee and assuming
the responsibility of convoking boiling con-
vention at Alexandria, was fully recognized
and appreciated by the de Jacto Executive
Although the offer was declined by Mr.
Leonard, and although we do not make this a
specific charge, yet We are free to say that the
circumstance is somewhat ominous at least
and does not warrant comparison OF the
political course Of that journal with that Of
some Of the editors Of the paper (the Bull
LETIN>. that charges him with creating dissen-
,ions." If we ever INDUCED in the {. worship
OF false gods" which we most emphatically
deny, it never carried us SO far as to make us
boilers and disorganizers. Had our contreres
Of ths Times been educated in the sa ne politi-
cal school with us, they never would occupy
the ambiguous position before the country
they now do, nor would they ever permit |
themselves to be SO far carried away as they |
nave been by petty jea ousies and unreAson-
lble demands.
