AT THE CITY HALL.

II was evident to the eye Of even the most
casual observer, that there was something appre-
hended at the City Hall yesterday. In the
several departments there was noticeable lack
Of that hurry and hustle always to be seen, and
the clerks all wore air Of general uncertainty.
Majestic pens slept quietly behind digniied ears
and long used paper cutters winked and blinked
at one another, as if they were cognizant OF the
impending change.
Even the musty books assumed an air of i'm
portant gravity and Strengthened up their backs
in Pecksniffian STYLE ready for coming events.
The officers recently elected have not as yet
received their certificates, and of course have not
qualified. On Monday it is probable that they
will take their seats, by that time the returns
Of the parish will have been definitely settled and
the count made exact The present incumbents
are anxious for the change as they are over their
term.

NEW ORLEANS A FEDERAL BAR
RACKS.

And now il appears we are to have the
soldiers with us always. Arrangements have
been made by the Government to rent the
Commercial Hotel, corner of Girod and New
Levee streets, as quarters for the 18th U. 5.
Infantry, Gen. De Tobriand's command and
three companies of infantry and one of artil-
lery will be quartered at the Barracks. The
other com mands will remain pretty much
where they are
We have nothing to urge against the pres
ence of the United States troops here, except
the fl ct that they are urgently needed else
where, and there il no possible necessity for
their remaining in Louisiana, unless it be to
keep up the little fictions of Williams, Pack
ard, Beckwith & Co.
The Mexicans and Indians are numbering
and robbing people on the Texas frontier, and
even the town Of Corpus Christi is menaced;
but what of that, the people there are mostly
white and, therefore, cannot expect protection
from the present Radical Government at
Washington. The sympathies OF Grant and
his vulgar bully of an Attorney General, are
only touched when an appeal goes up from the
negroes. They hold the little finger Of an
African baby Of more account than the lives Of
many white men and women.
So far as the officers and soldiers themselves
are concerned, they have as a whole, con-
Quoted themselves in a manner that merits our
entire commentator, and we do not believe
that such shou!der-strapped blackguards and
free-booters as Merrill and HodgsoD, are more
heartily condemned and despised any where
than in army circles Most Of the officers with
whom we have been thrown are gentlemen,
and have conducted themselves as such. We
cordially wish they were here under different
circumstances and for more laudable purposes.

EFFECT OF THE EMPIRE DISASTER.

c. Vucassovich is the party who found the
bodies Of the children Of Captain Jeanfrau of the
steamer Empire. He was engaged, In a skif,
hunting for the body Of Anthony Baw, and while
graphing near the sunken steamer he brought
up tho bodies of the children, the little boy
Johnny, aged about twelve, and the little girl
Ida, eyed seven.
The body Of Ida was brough up first, and that
of her little brother about three-quarters Of an
hour afterwards. Both bodies were in an excel
lent state OF preservation, and the faces Of each
looked almost life-like. They were beautiful
children, and were singularly beautiful as they
lay in their collins at their once happy home
whittier they were taken by kind friends, and
every attention bestowed upon their remains.
We are panied to state that Mrs. Jcanfrau is
now lying in critical condition. The complete
nervous p-ostration caused by the direful calam-
ity has entirely shattered her nervous system
yesterday little but hopes were entertained Of her
surviving. The broken hou sehold robbed Of
four Of its brightest treasures is now wreck
The laughing faces and winsome simles Of those
who are now wrapped in the slumber of death,
come back with saddening memories, and the
tender recollections of the pleasant moments
passed in their society only serve to increase the
effect OF the blow. Capt. Jeanfrau and lady have
our warmest sympathy in their sad affection, and
we tender them tho regrets of q sorrowing
peOp'e.

A story is told of an engineer on the Union
Pacific Railroad who ran q race with death at
the rate Of forty miles an hour, and won by
five seconds. He was driving the passenger
train west, and was taken suddenly and seri-
ously i'll. He seemed to be aware that death
was near, yet the train must reach Cheyenne
before he could be relieved. That was the
end of his route. He increased the speed of
his engine and ran for life. Forty miles an
hour saved his distance. He reached Chey-
enne ahead Of time, and when the engineer
who was ready to relieve him stepped aboard
the engine, he family gasped: "Take the en-
CINE; I'm ready to die now" In five seconds
he was corpse. If Death had stepped aboard
before the other engineer, what would have
been the consequence to the passengers But
they did not see the grim spectre running the
engine, like a phantom train. 1t was very
close shave, and is frightful instance of
man remaining at the post Of duty just long
enough.
