NEW ORLEANS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER o.

Barney had so feebly expressed and then the
scratching of the rebels-Barney said rebels
because he thought his audience would like
the word, and they did-would commence not
by the tens, not by the hundreds, not even by
the five hundreds, but by the thousands.
Barney brought out thousands with prolonged
shrek to the great and unconcealed delight Of
the crowd who looked upon it as a particularly
good effort, decidedly rich in its nature.
In connection with this subject of naturali-
cation in the Second District Court, it is
stated that the case has been laid before the
Natural Government, Williams, for an opinion.
so that in the event that Fields cannot get
enough lawyers like himself who are of suffi-
cient standing to give their opinions weight,
to come out and declare against the legality of
the papers issued, there will be one reserve.
The grounds on which the attention of Will
liams is called to the matter are, that natural
ization is under Federal laws; that State has
the right alone to decide the course to become
its citizen.
NOT ON THE BILLS.
A pleasant incident took place. between acts,
during the performance Of the sTicket of Leave
Man." at the st. Charles Theatre, on Thursday
night, for the benefit of the families of the
fallen heroes of the memorable 18th of Sep
TENDER. The Reception Committee. headed
by Mr.. c. j. Silverstein, presented to Mrs. j.
Gordon, an elegant gold watch and chain,
which was sent to her by the ladies of Algiers,
in evidence Of their regard and esteem.
After the exchange of appropriate addresses
by MIR. Silverstein and Mrs. Gordon, the per-
Torrance was proceeded with to the credit Of
the participants
WHY IS IT?
Some days ago colored man named John
Tuner, who has been acting with the Conser-
vatives in the present campaign, was set upon
in the Third Ward by body of negroes,
any cause or provocation, save perhaps, his
political opinion, and severely beaten. Tuner
made an affidavit against Crazy, charging him
with the otfense and warrant was issued,
which has, however, been in the hands of the
officer ever since and no effort has yet been
made to execute it, although it is we'll known
that "Crazy" can be found at almost any
time at Elephant Johnnie's barrel-house.
Probably beating Democrat is not an offense
under the laws as they are now interpreted
and executed.
A moke named John Scott, who registered
several times too often, was some days ago ar
rested in the Twelfth Ward and locked up
upon the charge of perjury: He was arraigned
before Justice Falls, who considerably re-
leased him on bonds of 500 to appear on the
SoA AAiot. W CoeOAut1yj 1AsS nAS"OA. iAAo SOC
ready to try the case, but when it was called
the festive Scott did not put in an appearance.
Falls assumed the role of outraged dignity,
and ordered the bond forfeited and a capias to
issue tor the missing man. At latest accoants
be was still at large.
ANOTHER.
We have received a communication from a
colored man named Louis Hender on, residing
at No. 257 Gravier street. relating the circum-
stances of the arrest Of himself and Thomas
Douglass, on the charge Of being drunk and
the peace, by negro police officer.
The two men were arraigned before Judge
and though it was clearly proven
that their arrest was piece Of righteousness,
they were fine $40 apiece, and in default, i'm
prisonment each Of twenty days in the Parish
Prison.
The malice ON the part of the officer and
the court grew out of the fact that Henderson
is acting with the conservative people, and in
deed, that constituted his sole offense.
There is an evident intention on the part of
the Radical negroes to intimidate those of
their race wh~ propose to act and think for
themselves. This intention has made itself
manifest, in the many assaults on Conservative
,olored men, that have been made lately. The
white people Of this city should see to it that
hose men who propose to act with them shall
