Court Items.

The Supreme Court, at Opelousas, has
forty-fve cases on its docket.
If the Bulletin had quoted the whole of
the remarks of Judge Cullom in the case of
Bronson vs. Ball, as reported in the REPUB.
LIcAs, it would have presented the same
idea to its readers as it did yesterday morn.
ing in the communication regarding them,
and been day earlier with its news.
The market war has assumed new
features. When the decision of the Su-
preme Court declared the city had the pow
er to close private markets the authorities
regarded it as final In accordance with
this view they again proceeded to attempt
to close the private markets by criminal
proceedings before the police magistrates.
Mr.. James Stafford, who has borne the
brunt of the battle thus far, was prepared
for this, and, undaunted as ever, sought the
Superior District Court with his grievances.
Judge Hawkins, considering that police
magistrates have no Jurisdiction in such
cases, not only issued an injunction on fur
ther proceedings, but peremptory man
damus ordering the papers transferred to
his court. The execution of these writs
places the whole question just where it was
before the Supreme Court reversed the de-.
cision of the Superior District Court, and
unless the city induces Judge Hawkins, by
rule, to dissolve these writs, that decision
will have no effect during the summer.

secrets of the Sanctum.

To the general public the classification
of genius about a newspaper office is as
strange as silent barber. The editor-in-
chief is the frequent recipient of COM
plant from subscriber that his paper
was not delivered yesterday morning,
while the paper cutter in the iob-rOom is
often complimented on the stand of the
paper in regard to the repeal of the law
regulating the colonization of grasshoppers
in Minnesota.
The young man who is fitting himself for
a journalistic career asks US if the chief
editors position is difficult. On the con-
traly it is the most comfortable place on
the paper. He has only to dash off few
columns of editorials day and then en-
joy himself All the good looking women
with poems are shown into his rooms, and
he smokes all the cigars sent in tor the re-
porters He receives invitations to de-
liver addresses at county fairs, and carries
home the best of the books sent in for re-
view. When he hasn't anything else to do
he looks over '"copy" and carefully runs
his pencil through the joke the writer
struggled four hours with and considered
his masterpiece. Sentinel.

A Mississippi Official Resigns.

We presume the emptiest pigeonhole in
the desk of Southern Governor is that
devoted to designations Of officers. But
now and then document of this kind is
received which deserves special mention.
Take, for instance, the following letter
from the mayor of Floreyville, Mississippi'
to Governor Ames:
| herewith beg leave respectfully to
tender my resignation as mayor of Florey-
vile, to which l was appointed by your
highheaded predecessor, and which, with
the internal greediness for Office SO charac-
teristic of the American people, was green
enough to accept. In thus drawing Oft the
judicial ermine l am governed alone by the
haunting of being inordinately. rich if
continue to hold this lucrative position
Perhaps some other man and brother may
be inveigled into the acceptance of this po
sition, but your humble servant prefers to
retire to the gushing serenity of private
life

The Rivers.

During the past week the Red river has
fallen four and half feet at Shreveport.
The Arkansas, at Little Rock, and the Cum.
berland, at Nashville, have changed but
little. The Missouri is from two to three
feet higher between Omaha and Leaven-
worth, and from five to ten feet between
Kansas City and Hermann, than it was
last Saturday; it is now rising from Yank.
ton to Plsttsmouth, after having fallen
slightly for the last few days. The Missis-
sippi has fallen fourteen inches at Lacrosse,
two feet at Memphis, seven at Helena, ten
at Vicksburg and eleven inches at New Or
leans, but has risen ten inches at Dubuque,
fifteen at Davenport, twenty-five at War
saw and five feet at St. Louis, end is now
rising at Cairo The Ohio is rising at Gin
cinnati and above, but is stationary or fall
ing at points below. The Monongahela,
Allegheny and Youghiogheny are now ris-
ing. The lower Mississippi will probably
continue to fall slowly during the coming
week. while the rise may be expected to
continue for few days longer in the CEN
trail portion of the river. The Missouri
will probably continue nigh and the Ohio
rise somewhat

Judgment for Defendant.

Otis n. Cutler was government agent
during the war, with power to take charge
and dispose of property seized from the
South. He gave bond in slOo, 900 for the
faithful performance of his duties. Suit
was commenced in the United States Dis
trict Court against his bond to recover
S4O24 60, which it was alleged he was short
in his accounts with the government. The
case was on trial last week before Judge
Blatchford, in New York. A defense was
interposed that the alleged deficiency was
in transactions after July, 1865, when he
ceased to be agent and that he was not
therefore liable on his bond. The court
gave Judgment in the defendants favor.

tons, Much Ado About Nothing is his
masterpiece. In it wit and badinage run
riot. Considering its plot, the story is
based mostly upon the loves of Hero and
Claudio-his wooing and winning, his false
accusation on misinformation, and her SEM
blance of death, which he supposes to be
real. With happy ending this consti-
tutes the framework of the comedy. In
its acting, however, Hero and Claudio are
eclipsed by Beatrice and Beuedick, whose
wit and sparring of words make the pith
and point of the piece. Dogbevy and
TIeryes, representative men of all ages for
fools in office, are comedies in themselves,
and their reasoning is as palpable to-day
as it was in the sixteenth century.
For an association of amateurs to under
take the representation of this comedy, re.
curing such nicely of speech and action
to insure success, seemed like temerity.
How well the association succeeded, those
who were present can attest. We write it
down as a remarkable rendition OF a diff.
cult piece.
MISS h1W tuUku1 CIoWACA GAC III
ance with an admirable portrayal Of Bea-
trice. In this part her many accomplish
ments as an actress found ample scope.
She was graceful and digniied, as became
the lady of high breeding, and yet had
vivacity and sparkle enough to give telling
effect to all her speeches. bliss Doyle was
no less praiseworthy in her efforts to make
the most of Hero, although the character
did not bring her prominently forward.
Both of these ladies we're elegantly attired,
and they rendered such able support to the
amateurs that the piece could not fail to
please.
Mr.. Buck has before played Be,ledick,
and made all of the character that could be
expected of an amateur. Bensdick was
soldier, and however much he may have
been lashed into repartee, was always a
gentleman. Mr.. Buck had evidently caught
the true understanding of the character he
represented, and his acting harmonized
with the Beatrice of Miss Hawthorne,
A word Of praise is due TO Messrs. Santini,
Pickles and DeCamp.
Mr.. MITCHELL who played an Important
part in the comedy, is Jet little crude il
his efforts. He, however, has good voice,
and is promising amateur.
Mr.. Beanham was in his element as Dog
berry, the Malaprop of justice. Consider
ing its length, there is no more glorious
comedy character than this. In the few
lines set down for him there is wit and wis
dom enough to furnish dozen modern
comedies Mr.. Beanham seemed impre ssed
with the Importance of his task, and did
not fail to identify himself with the charac
ter in a manner that gained for him mu ch
| applause and many smiles. Mr.. Babcoc k,
| as his legal adviser, in the minor part OF
Te,yes, was quite as droll and original.
