POSTPONED. ,o-
PARIS. Monday, July 90 1874
Tn tbe Assembly TODAY Gen. de Cissey, Minister
of War and Vice-lresident Of the Council an
nounced that Baron de Chabaud- -Latour had been
appointed Minister of the Interior, and NJ. Mathlen
Bodet Minister of Finance. He further said that
the Cabinet as now organized, had not had snihcent
time to agree upon its policy. and moved the post
ponement of the constitutional debate until lhuis-
day, which was agreed to.
The new Ministerial appointments are considered
a blow to the BonapartIsts, who are now without d
representative i'll the Cabinet
In the Assembly next Thursday NJ. Changarnlor
will move the further postpOncment OF dehate OH
the Constitutional bills until January 1910. On thiS
question the Ministry Will remain neutral. The Lett
will oppose the motion.
1t is the general impression that the appointment
Of Standardization only temporary, and that
the Ministry will be finally rearranged after the vote
on the Constitutional bills
The disorganzation of the Right is increasing
1t was thought probable that the motion Tor the
restoration of the monarchy would again be lhilo-
duccd at to-days sitting of the Assembly.
LONDON. Tuesday, July 81 $780, a. m.
The Times Paris despatch SAYS it is expected that
the Government will inform the Assembly on Thurs
day that it does not consider that the rejection oi
either Ventavors or Pcriers bills or both, should
involve a dissolution
This announcement will probably cause the roJec-
ton of Pericrs bill by about 40 majority The AS
sembly will then vote the budget and adjourn.
Cornelius De Witt, son-in-law of NJ. Guizot, has
been appointed Under Secretary Of the new Munster
Of the Interior. Both are Protestants

4 NEW DILEMMA.

Roustabout, who ANSWERS all questions
of the past, present and future" from a
point at base ball to ruling on the Doc
tors Commons, explains how the wing
dam would rot make refuent water in
"the upper reach of the river" as pre-
dicted by Stein, or make backwater, as
stated by. Captain Howell. He says 'sthat
narrowing the channel would cause the
water to back up will not be denied by
anybody Such was undoubtedly the
case with the wingdams on Red river
which backed the water and released the
fleet Of General Banks. But, says Roust-
about, the distractions at the mouth of
the Mississippi would cause the refuent
water to seek other outlets. This pre-
sents this dilemma to the Eads project.
If all the passes be not closed
the water can not be so confined
ty the wingdams as to increase the scour-
ing power of the current. If it be not so
confined the obstruction Of the wing
dams will cause the river to escape by
other outlets. This will leave the wing
dams in dead eddy. The sediment will !
50 accumulate as to obstruct that pass.
Any power to scour will be transferred to
some other open pass, and as the Missis- |
s'ppi can not afford more than one deep

AT 4 MEETING

Held on board the steamer MARY IDA, commanded
by Captain Alfred J. Ruiz on Thursday, fourteenth
of May instant, the following resolutions were un.
aninousIy adopted by the survivors from the Tilie
c. Jewett Captain John T. Davis, which was sunk
by the steamer City of Houston the night OF the
thirteenth instant
Resolved, That we, the undersigned passen gers
and crew of the r. c. Jewett desire to xpress our
heartfelt t. anks to Captain Alfred j. Ruiz of the
steamer Mary Ida, for coming with his boat to our
relief; also to Mr.. j. j. Sahba and IN fact to the
whole crew who vigantly seconded the noble
efforts of their captain to secure us from watery
grave Had it not been for the strenuous efforts
put forth by the gentlemen in our behalf we must
Inevitably all now be sleeping in the bosom of the
Mississippi. After satisfying himself that all the
living were taken out of the water and nothing
more remained TO be done in that direction, his
boat proceeded on her course, and his attention
turned to our several necessities and comfort,
for some of us we're scantily clothed, having
retired to rest previous to the collision, and
all with nothing but what We stood in at the time
And his gentlemanly steward and assistants are
entitled to warmeSt thanks for ministering so
cheerfully and kindly to our comfort. To the kind
and humane gentleman, Captain Ruiz We owe a
debt of the deepest gratitude, one which can not
be cancelled by anything that can do but he
will doubtless find that richest of all rewards in
the consciousness of having been chosen by Divine
Providence as the medium in His hands of doing
good to his fellOw-men.
Resolved, That great credit is due to Captain
John T. Davis, of the T. c. Jewett for his coOness,
courage and perseverance in endeavoring to save
not only his boat but also the lives of his Grew
and passengers himself being a cripple, having
lost an arm. and but two fingers on his only hand.

TO TAN COLLECTORS
IN THE COUNTRY PARISHES.

have heretofore issued instructions in relation
to the collection of taxes in the overlooked dis.
trcts advising the exercise of all the forbearance
consistent with the discharge of your duties, to-
wards citizens who have been injured by the flood.
In regard to parishes and districts not afflicted
by the overflow, herewith repeat the substance
Of my instructions Of last year. You are to use
your best exertiOns to collect and pay over the
taxes due, rapidly as possible, particularly in
those parishes where the people are better pre-
pared now than in the fall to pay. But you will
not make seizures for current taxes, where you
satisfied that the only reason for non-payment
is present inability to do so, and are also salts
fed that the parties willing and will be able to
nay be fore the end of the year, if they not mo-
Tested now. In cases of mere captiOus resistance
you will enforce the law promptly and vigorously
But, outstanding the large reduction in the
rate of taxation, many taxpayers will, for reasons
which l need not recite here, fLd it difficult to
meet their obligations to the State You under
stand that it is policy, in such cases. not to har
as little cost as possible both to the taxpayer and
the State, in the collection of the revenue. At the
same time it must be remembered that the cred.
itors of the State, including large number of citi
zens are imperative in their demands and that
our obligations must be met. In these difficult
circumstances, the proper discharge of your du
ties will require the exercise of the utmost dill.
gence energy and sound discretion; being gov
erned by the general rules laid down above and in
nv instructions of last year.

We have been informed through various
sources during the past week or two that
the prospects Of the people in Lafourche
parish had been materially improved by
the closing of the Moreau crevasse. 1t
afforded US some pleasure to believe in
these statements, as we have been hearing
of little else beside disaster from the
co untry parishes of late, and naturally
looked hopefully for a turn in the tide.
But letter from Mr.. Crozier, of Thibo-
daux, contradicts the encouraging &C
counts previously received from La
fourche, and RENTS that parish back to
the state Of suffering and restitution from
which it had emerged in imagination only.
Mr.. Crozier says that though the Moreau
crevasse has been closed, means Of SUBJ
sistence necessary in making crop are
wanting, and that the Parr crevasse is
still running. Hundreds Of people are
still dependent on the relief committee for
their daily bread.
The premature stoppage of supplies to
persons who have suffered from the over
flow would be the same in effect as an act
of injustice, though it is desirable that
the demands upon the charitable should
cease as soon as possible

The Bulletin continues the discussion of
the subject of legislative profits. Not
much reliance is to be placed upon its
citation of instances to prove its position.
We known that many of the gentlemen
who are credited with having become
enormously rich upon eight dollars day
are some of them as poor as the Bulletin
itself, or made what they do own honestly
and by practicing honesty and common
sense. But it is to the practices under
the present administration to which we
referred. We are aware that a few years
ago it was the practice Of the Democratic
lobby to bride our ignorant country men,
bers. 1t is not so now. Governor Hahn's
bribery bill restrained some. and the At
torney General, aided by the Superior
District Court, have pretty effectually
checkmated the few attempts that were
successful last winter
If the Bulletin sees the name of Repub-
lie an on the next list of candidates against
whom fault can be found, not alleged,
simply, we will thank it to furnish the in
70 rmation that will lead to his exposure.
We will thank our neighbor and assist
hi m to the extent of our ability. We do
not want dishonest officials in our party.
But it is not fair to make charges which
have no better foundation than hearsay
to rest on.
