Course of Legislation in Congress-.

The Washington correspondent of one of
the most prominent of the Northern papers
makes this prophecy concerning the course Of
legislation during the present session Of Con-
gress ''Plenty of talk bat no action on the
Currency question no Tariff legislation the
Civil Rights bill shelved Louisiana let alone
a small pairing down of the appropriations for
political effect; no open jobbery; no new
ventures in legislation humdrum grinding
away at the grist of routine matter left in the
hopper of the two Houses last session no
money for ditch-digginS, whether asked for
by the President or not; great timidity and
caution on the part Of the Republicans, and
an effort to keep on good terms with the Pres
ident while not indorsing his unpopular per-
formances considerable prudence and
on the part OF the Democrats,
who will keep quiet and reserve their fire until
it is time to make it tell on the Presidential

Beck with but he has been a Kellogg man (;
q. he has indorsed the usurpation ; he has given
aid and countenance to the President and
Kellogg in sanctioning the greatest crime
ever committed against free government in
this country; he is a part and parcel Of the
s,dious and oppressive governments that have
snadc Of our once fair and prosperous State
almost desert, and which have reduced our
people to despair and beggary.
He was endorsed and nominated by Kel-
iogg for the position and that IN Itself Is
enough to cause us to regard him with great
suspicion, for Kellogg has never yet by any
accident either appointed himself or asked
for the appointment OF a good man; and IN
the words Of the SUITE Register, he 'never failed
to back up rascal when he had chance.
Judge Pardee is a pronounced Lowell man,
and that looks very bad, for the name of
Lowell is synonymous with infamy
Judge Pardee has not, We repeat, rendered
himself violently obnoxious to the people,
but he has acquiesced in and been a party to
the most cruel wrongs that have been inflicted
upon Louisiana. Ii he receives the confirma- |
ton of the Senate we shall Judge him by his |
acts, being much exercised, however, to ascer- |
tain how any man who has assumed the atti- |
tude which he has assumed toward the people |

sero,ls cut in the left breast, was at last ac-
counts very badly of. 1t was rumored dur

was dead, which proved to be false. Owing to
the high standing and responsibility of the
parties concerned, We restrain giving names

Notice..

Nothing. IS purchased which requires SO much
judgmen in the purchase a good Watch. In many
Instances the gaudy outside is found to contain IA
worthless interior and the deluded buyer does not
take long to discover that he has been at great
pense for nothing. An honest matchmaker who
guarantees what he sells and sells only what he
guarantee to give satisfaction is always worth know
inc and we can safely refer country and city
readers to F. S. ANDERSON, of 1873 Rampant street,
just such man.
Strangers visiting the city will find it to their adj
vantage to call at the above store where they can
find the finest selection Of Diamonds and Jewelry at
very low prices.

THE CUsTON.HOUSE BUSINESS.

Some days ago we published detailed
statement of the expenses of the New Orleans
Custom House, and comparison with the ex-
penses Of that of the San Francisco Custom
House, showing conclusively how much
greater, pro rata, ours were. According to
this report, derived from official sources, the
| New Orleans Custom House employed Alb
men, at an expense of S474.747 II, to collect
So. 61S, 22l revenue The New York World
makes the following further expose, and
shows most conclusively, by comparison with
reports from other receiving ports, what an
unblushing fraud has been perpetyated upon
our people That paper says:
The following is "A list of messengers EN-.
ployed in the custom houses of New York,
Boston. Philadelphia, Baltimore and New
Orleans respectively for the fiscal year 1873;
also the amount of revenue collected in the
above named ports

New Orleans. ........... 80 3,6lS, 22l
mus the New orleans CuStOm.f1OuSe. or,
rather, brother-in-law Casey, who collects
s3,GlS, 22l revenue, employs ten more messen-
gers than the Custom House of New York,
which collected nearly S125,OOO,OOO. 1t also
seems by the above that brother-in-law Casey
employs exactly as many messengers in the
New Orleans Custom House as Boston and
Philadelphia put together.
The second swindle is in the number of
clerks in the New Orleans Custom-House as |
compared with, for instance. the port OF Bal |
timOre. |
In 1873 the New Orleans Custom-H House |
employed eighty. four clerks. while the Balti- |
more Custom-Honse only employed tifty-,ix I
clerks. The difference can be seen ut |

| COST OF SUPPORTING THE ASYLUM
1t is impossible to give this in detail, as bu
few invoices for purchases made are sent here
and this year most Of the bills were paid with
out being examined or approved.
The following are the cash prices paid fol
supplies to the treasurer by himself, who has
furnished the asylum since April last i:
! Flour per barrel, ten dollars and fifty cents.
I Bacon per cask, twelve and half cents per
! pound.
Rice per tierce or barrel. eleven cents per
pound
Grits per barrel. seven dollars.
Brown sugar, common, per hosshead, twelve
cents per pound
Molasses per barrel. sixty Eight cents per
gallon.
Coffee per sack. twenty-eight cents per
pound.
Tea per chest. one dollar and fifty cents per
pound
Butter per frkin, fifty cents per pound.
Lard per tierce. twelve and half cents per
pound.
Mackerel, No. 5, per barrel twenty dollars.
Candles, star, per box, twenty-five cents per
pound.
Tobacco per box, common, eighty cents per
pound.
All the articles furnished were common, and
some very inferior. The orders were by
wholesale -purchssing usually ten barrels of
flour, a hogshead Of sugar, a tierce Of sides,
etc., at time.
If the asylum could purchase at the usual
market rates, paying fair prices for fair ar
ticles, the annual cost of maintaining the in
stitution need not exceed thirty-two thousand
dollars in currency. which would be equiva.
lent to sixty -four thousand dollars in State
warrants, allowing these to average fifty cents
on the dollar.
The statistics of the year 1873 show that on
December 81, there we're one hundred and
sixty-five in the asylum, and in Table No. 2,
deaths and the causes. it appears that THREE
DIED FROM STARVATION.
We judge from the report that the board did
rs well as they could under the circum-
stances.
Many good suggestions were made; but
what could be expected from Radical KEEL
logg Legislature? The Superintendent asked
the Legislature to appoint special commit
lee to examine into the condition Of the asy-
um. The report was laid aside-no notice
taken of the suggestions and recommenda-
lions Jh the Superintendent aras Immediately
discharged.
No severer comment can be made upon the |
nfamy of the government of the usurper,

SUPERINTENDENT BooTHBY..-This fungus
growth Of the Kellogg usurpation is raising a
little storm among the young ladies Of our
city, by his attempt to force negroes into the
public schools. The male portion Of our
population will put up with good deal, and
in fact, they have already submitted quietly
to numberless wrongs but when indisnities
are attempted to be put upon their daughters
and sisters, MI. Boothby would do well to be
very cautious. The white people pay the
taxes for the support Of the public schools,
and they should see to it that neither Boothby
nor any other Radical be permitted to destroy
them. Any effort. therefore, to introduce
negroes in the public schools appropriated to
the whites, should be promptly resisted. and
an ettectual stop put to this infamous scheme
of amalgamation.

SPECIAL ATTENTION. Owing to misprint
in part of the advertisement Of Messrs. NJ.
l.. Byrne & Co., in Sundays BULLETIN, We
cheerfully make the proper correction The
advertisement should have read, ''all goods are
marked in plain figures, and no second price,
and at retail; positively no goods charged.
Through an error, it read no goods changed. :
Now, we unhesitatingly say that one of the
leading features Of this popular dry goods
establishment is that in every instance goods
are exchanged or the money refunded when
tile purchaser 50 desires it. The principle Of
their business is that perfect satisfaction be
guaranteed in every instance, and this sterling
principle we commend to the special notice
of the readers OF the BULLETIN.

The Road Law,

Some months ago we published an ar
ticle iii regard 10 the present mode aud
manner of working the country roads,
and suggested some radical changes la
our road laws. We welu glad to see
those suggestions endorsed by several
~tate papers. The time for the meetin
OF our Legislature is approaching, AMI
we would like To see this matter urged
upon its attention. 1t is one that The
fweller in cities. a. well as those VINO
live in towns and in the country, are in
terested in. IL affects the wholesale and
retail merchant. and through its lamifi-
cations. it reaches,7irectly or indirectly,
all classes Of people. We believe that we
stated in that article. that IL proper
system of improving the roads ha Ueen
adopted fifty OF siyty years ago that ev-
cry pr.ucipai l'Sh~ay in the Ststs could
have been made inio macadamized or
gravel road, md we repeat it. Euou, h
time and labor has been wasted on our
country roads 10 have done it.and 10 vesv
iit.Ic alvantage. We also sugg stei IN
,d vacrem tax ;the election ola commits
sioner in each county. whose duty it
would be 10 superintend the construc-
lion of all roads, and that the la Dor be
hired instead of warning OUT the
hands. Let him hire those who wished
20 work. aGd zen times AS much could
be accomplished. The details of the of
ice and the mode of doing the work can
al be regulated in a properly prepared
bill, our object now being simply TO call
attention 10 the subject. that it mly be
properly discussed. OF one thing we feel
-criain, that any change in the law could
not fail TO be beneficial, for we certainly
nave tie worst law on the subject. not
