The "Christian at Work" thus sensi''
bly, comments upon the Louisiana revolt
i" The wicked folly of Congress in
neglecting to settle the Louisiana ques-
tion at its last session, with all the
facts brought before il, is manifested,
as might be expected, in riot which
in its proportions assumes the nature
of rebellion. Whatever may be said
of the crime of a resort to arms, we do
not forget that the most culpable. are
not, indeed, the immediate participants
in such an affair, but those WHOSE acts
or whose neglect of duty precipi tate
revolution. Had Congress done its
duty; had it settled the Louisiana din
culties when the facts were brought be.
fore its committee having the ma tier in
charge, we might not now have the
disgraceful record of armed rebellion
and bloodshed AS it is, neglect aiit
ipiompetenee have wrought out thei
logical result; but how long can tn
country endure such condition o
things, and for such cause--and hoy
long will it?" ...r ts.. ..

Profound quietness still prevails at
New Orleans, and the Intelligence from
Louisiana shows that the McEnery Off.
cials are being installed into Office with
out opposition In different parts of the
State. The condition of Louisiana af-
fairs was the subject of discussion in
the Cabinet at Washington Wednesday,
but no final method of dealing with the
case was decided upon. Gen. Emory,
commanding the United States troops in
Louisiana, was instructed "under NO
circumstances to recognize the insurgent
Government of louisiana" and that
within Eve days from the date of the
Presidents proclamation, ''such action
will be taken as the emergency re-
quires. Z" The proclamation vas issued
on Tuesday, and the Eve days will exr
pire on Sunday.
Washington, Sept. 17.-The President
to-day ordered three vessels of-war tc
be sent to New Orleans, They have
not yet been SELECTED, but may be in the
course of to- day. They will be such as
can cross the bar with safety, and will bt
gunboats of heavy callbre. The Presi-
dent sent for Admiral Reynolds this
morning, with whom he had a long
conference this morning.

CAPE MAY.-This is a swell of re-
rort in every respect. Not long since
an old husband refused to allow his
young wife to go In and bathe, because
he heard there were so many "white

this place are famous, for who has not
heard of "Cape May salts" (?l Sail
ing is INDUCED in here to great extent.
Suppose this is on account Of the sa=
line matter in the mighty deep. A man
left here sometime ago to swim across
to Portugal; he has not been heard from
since his departure. rs 'i"t
ATLANTIC CITY.-The ocean here is
pretty fair, but it is not as salt as the
one they have at Cape May. A bushei
of sand costs but very little here. 1

The Milford (Pike) Herald puts it
thusly: 1--WE understand that Hon.
Charles Albright, of Mauch Chunk /,
will probably be the Republican nomi-
nee for Congress in this district. Mr..
Albright, who is now serving as Con-
gressman-at-large, has already made a
good record iu the national legislature,
and If he receives a denomination for
that position, will be q strong opponent.
1t therefore becomes the Democracy of
the district to go into the contest with a
united and harmonious spirit. We hope
that such spirit may prevail, whichev ver
of the numerous aspirants may prove
successful at the Democratic Congress
ional Conference. OIL.

In a test case at Harrisburg on Thurs
day, of last week, Judge Pierson gave
his decision in regard to transgressing
the Sunday law, that the transgressor
can be fined for each and every sale of
merchandise during the day. This is
belle we'd to be the frst dicision upon
the point in Pennsylvania. Under the
E nglish law only ope fine during the
entire Sunday could be imposed. He
also decided that a house having a hotel
licenss can sell ice cream or anything
in the eatable line to citizeps or trans
lent customers. The prosecutions were
brought by the Sunday League.

GROWING IN lAPoRTANCE.-But few persons are aware of the growing importance of Cobra do City or Yuma City, the county seat of Yuma county, Arizona Territory. This place was located and plafted, many years since, by company, among whom were numbered Gen Heintzeluan, Major Cross, Geo. F. Hooper, B. NJ. Hartshorne, James Porter, Capt Johnston and others, and now the location is becoming valuable. The city is located at the intersection of the Gila and Col orado rivers, in the Territory of Arizona and i'm. mediately opposite Fort Yuma. It is the com mercial key to the Territory, and large and profitable business is transacted towards supply. ing the interor north and south of the Gila river The importance of this place exists in the fact, that to certain extent it is the head of navigation of the Colorado river, and supports regular line of river steamers, intersectig ocean steamers, at the mouth of the river. The steamers Newborn and Montana make regular monthly trips from San Francisco to the mouth of the river. Anoth- CT fact connected with this growing place exists in the location of the Texas aud Pacific Railroad, which passes through one of the main streets of the city. It Is also said Col Scott has selected this point as a depot and location for machine and work shops required for the use of the road and when the road is completed, Colorado or Yuma City Is destined to become a place of vast importance. It now contains a population of about 800 souls. ss M
 have recently reorganized and incorporated q company known as the "Colorado Commercial and Land Company" It is composed of some of our most energetic and prominent citizens. The company own i've leagues of land, with river front of about twenty miles, embracing some of tue finest sugar and cotton lands in the world. The grant includes the city plat. As the company is entirely free from debt, and with perfect title to this large and valuable property, the stock has not been forced on the market; in fact, none Is offered for sale, excepting in q few instances and among friends, as 1t is "paid up" and unas- sessable.IS.
