And round dark rocks in wilderness glow

Foam specks before the wind that glide,
The sleeping sea-gulls float;
Amid ewes crimson shadows wide,
Rocked softly by the swaying tide,

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1874-06-07
Hartwig Newm an.

The recent announcement Of the death
in his dear old fatherland, of the young
gentleman abo, e. named, drew forth deeply
marked manifestations of sorrow in this
community, and proofs of sincere sympathy
with his mourning relatives which must
have been soothing in their great distress.
OF frank and generous temperament, and
winningly courteous mannere, Mr.. Newman
never failed to win the hearts of those with
whom he came in contact, and his extensive
business connections, and wide spread
popularity as one of the most accomplished
musical amateurs of New Orleans, made
these of course very numerous.
Hartwig Newman arrived in this country
Just after the war, and soon became asso'
ciated in the prosperous banking and brok-
erage business of his brother, Mr.. Isidore
Newman. He was taken ill last February
for the first time in his life, and notwith-
standing all that affection and skill could
do, that young life, so full of fair promise.
has thus soon been brought to close.
With many, many others we sincerely
mourn his untimely taking off; but with
the survivors of his family rejoice that he
went so calmly forth TO face the grim mon
arch of all humanity, having the conscious
ness of a well spent life.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1874-06-07
NEW ORLEANS SUNDAY, T.,
Look at the Other Side.

The Picayune and Bulletin, daily news
papers of this city, troubled themselves to
make some illnatured remarks concerning
witnesses in the Grant parish prisoners
trial, denominating them as ignorant, de-
based and untruthful. Whether they were
correct or incorrect is not here under con.
sideration. The structures were made on
witnesses for the prosecution, before the
defense came to the front. Admitting that
there was some truth in the statements,
there is another dsagreeable side to this
question. When the defense began to take
testimony, readers of the above named
journals expected to see and hear from wit
nesses possessed Of education, refinement
and truth; they did not expect to listen to
statements made by "mokes," "Senegam-
bians," "ignoramuses," "niggers," ETC., hav
ing been instructed that it was very wrong
to accept evidence from such low charac-
ters. Friends of the prisoners were Sc
verely shocked, day after day, on seeing
some of the most abiect looking witnesses
that ever stood up in court, take oaths
to tell the truth, and nothing but the
truth and then NAL iciously repeat the most
transparent statements ever uttered.
mokes, Senegambians, niggers, ETC., were
brought forth to help the cause, and these
witnesses were treated with great polite
ness and even consideration. Several wit
nesses, fair rivals of North Carolina clay
eaters were listened to as attentively as if
they were oracles. As for ignorance: one
witness swore to not knowing the name OF
the parish in which che was born and lived
all her life, and could not read Or write
Another, in his zeal, declared that he had
made four twelve mile trips with a yoke of
oxen and loaded wagon in one day. Forty
eight miles in that space of time, under
such circumstances, must have surprised
the attorneys who were pumping him dry.
Still another witness was positive that one
of the accused had not been out of her sight
| for more than a minute during all of that
disgraced Easter Sunday, yet the two wit
nesses who preceded her in alibi Interest
were emphatic in averring that the prisoner
was in two or more distant places at one
| and the same time. Another could not
have been mistaken in the person he saw at
a distance of six hundred yards. These
are but samples of specimens which friends
| of the accused almost shed tears over be-
cause of their ignorance and untruthful
| ness. If such are villainous for the prose
cution, are they not equally bad for ths
| defeuseo

Inquisitivs Correspondence.

When the reader has perussd the follow
ing he will find food for reflection:
New ORLEANS, June 6, 1874.
Eon. Louis A. Wilt, Mayor:
DEAR SIR-How much has Chicago con-
tributed to suffering Louisiana in this her
hour of aff1ictiOn and misery!
New Orleans contributed $4,000 to
Chicago when fire rendered thousands of
her people homeless.
And this large sum was donated by a
people greatly impoverished by the devas
tating effects of war.
How much ciH Chicago contribute (pos-
sessed as she now is of wealth and pros
perity) to the starving white and black peo-
homeless by flood of water, whose conse-
quences are infinitely worse than the re-
suits of the great fire!
Yours truly, In. MARKS,
Chairman Chicago Relief Committee in
New Orleans.
The following ia the response:
MAYoRALrY OF NEW ORLEANS,
New Orleans June g. 1874.
Colonel I. N Marks chairman Chicago Relief Com.
mittee in New Orleans:
SIR-On my list Of money contributions
from Chicago for victims Of the overflow
find the following:
April 3O-Board of Trade, through G. E.
Slay J. II. Oglesby and others-one
half subject to the orders of Walker, Bron-
son e. Thompson. of St. Mary, for distribu-
tion by them, $4,000. Of which $4,000 was
drawn for St. Mary this day.
May 7-Chicago Grocers' Exchange, con-
tributed BY ninety firms, members OF the
same, $3.50 so.

through T. 8. Burton, $50.
Total cash contributions, 5000 50.
The chief contribution in provisions was
$500 pounds crackers donated by Alder
man Jones, of Chicago, sent free of charge
by the Illinois Central railroad.
am not aware that Chicago as cOrpo-
ration has adopted any measure Of relief.
What she as q city, or what her citizens
may yet do, ia matter still open to hope
and conjecture.
Very respectfully, yours,

Mayor and Treasurer Relief Fund.
