Tho Opera.

During this week the Opera House has
been silent and deserted. There is not an
echo of Myerbeer's magic strains nor Verdis
tunefnl melodies to break the solemn still
ness. But the Galvestonians are reveling
in sweet sounds, and find great delight in
"Le Trouvere" and "Lucie de Hammer
moor" as interpreted by N. Canonge's
troupe. The press and the public are en-.
thusiastic in their praises of Mile. Moisset,
the charming prima donna, and of M.
Gadilhe. Of NJ. Momas they have scarcely
words to express their admiration for his
wonderful powers as leader and artist.
We like to chronicle these successes of
our lyric artists, for apart from the fact
that it is only deserved need of encour-
agement to the parties in question, it goes
to show the correctness of our Judgment re-
garding their performances here. The
troupe will return on Sunday, and on Mon.
day evening next Mile. Denain will have
her benefit. The programme for the occa.
sion is varied, and offers the beneficiary full
scope for the display Of her marvellous
powers ss singer and actress. There will
be presented the second act of Halevy's
grand opera, CHARLES w." the fourth act
of "Le Prophetic" and the fourth act of
'L'Africaine." The evenings entertainment
will commence with the elegant little com.
edy, "Un Monsieur ct Une Madame"

The Superior Criminal Court.


There is reason for believing the bill Gre
ating this court will be signed by the Gov
ernor and promulgated as a law in few
days. The following gentlemen are named
as candidates for the judgeship of the new
court: Judge Atocha, Alfred Shaw, Esq,
II. H. Walsh, Esq, 1.-THE present Assistant
City Attorney Judge M. A. Dooley. and
Judge T. G. Hunt. They are all possessed
of good legal requirements; and, in add
ton, each is believed to present the other
necessary qualifications for making good
judge. The clerkship of the new court has
also induced number of very worthy gen.
tlemen to become candidates for the posi-
ton; but from all we can learn upon the
subject, We are inclined to think Mr.. Fitz-
patrick, the clerk of the old Criminal Court,
will be the clerk of the new one. 1t is said
that Governor Kellogg thinks the appoint
ment is due to Mr.. Fitzpatrick inasmuch as
he was elected by the people of this parish
to his present position. A rumOr to this
effect, however, has not been sufficient to
prevent other gentlemen of well known
popularity and having substantial claims
upon the Republican party of this city from
becoming candidates for the very comfort
able position of clerk of the Superior Grim
inal Court.
Amid so much good material the Cover
mormon will not find it half as difficult to
appoint good Judge and clerk as he will
to satisfy all who are anxious to be ap-
pointed.

The death Of this honored citizen, while
to have been at any time apprehended, be-
cause Of his age and frail constitution,
could never have occurred when it would
not have been loss to our business COM
munity. His integrity and experience with
his admirable judgment upon our CONNER
cial interests made Mr.. Briggs an invaluable
adviser. Age had not done its usual Office
with him. He was fixed in no forms of bus
mess, which he would not change upon
demonstrated improvement. There was no
better friend of progress than Mr.. Briggs.
When some years since the experiment of
Produce Exchange was tried in this city,
he was chosen president, and we we'll re-
member that his inaugural displayed
soundness of judgment and fertility of
suggestions which gratified and surprised
US. In this be adverted to the Importance
of improved modes of commerce, and advo-
Gated the canal across tho isthmus of
Florida, as means of shortening the coast
wise and foreign voyage, and expressed the
opinion as a marine insurer that this work
would reduce coastwise insurance fifty per
cent.
The mOdesty of Mr.. Briggs prevented his
frequent appearance in print. but it is we'll
known that he, as president of the Louisiana
Mutual Insurance Company, was the warm
and intelligent advocate of the Fort St.
Philip canal as the best mode Of outlet i'm
provement. The opinion of a man SO deeply
interested officially was Of much influence
in determining our merchants in the choice
Of a mode of improvement. 1t is not usual
that the commercial and social community
lose gentleman so estimable and so valu-
able in all the relations of life, and We ex-
press sincere coincidence and regret for the
event.

A Sensation in St. L0ujs.

Yesterday morning Acting Chief of Po-
lice Burgess received a telegram from Van
dalia, Illinois, informing him that there was
a trunk in the baggage.car of Western
bound train, over which hung mysterious
stencil, and asking him to look out for it..
The matter was referred to the chief of the
detective force, Harrigan, who de Jailed
Officers Egg. Armstrong and Styles to in.
vestigate. The officers visited the office of
the company, and there found the trunk.
The stencil arising from it was terrible.
and the officers properly concluded that the
box contained the evidence of some dark
and terrible tragedy, and proceeded to
force it open. So intense was the effluvia
that Officer Styles was completely over
powered, and was compelled to withdraw
from the case, leaving his brother officials
to work it up to a satisfactory conclusion.
Keys were tried, but the lock resisted all
efforts. and finally jimmies were employed.
The trunk was broken open, to reveal a
cargo Of very excellent Limburger cheese,
just game enough to be good. The officers
tried to hush the matter up, but like the
stencil that emptied the baggage-car and
overcame Officer Styles. it defisd all efforts
at secrecy.-H. Louis Globe.

Carpet-BngRers In East Tennessee.
A correspondent Of the Memphis appeal,
" ;finnr from, KnoxuiIlo T,onnncnox ..--...

A correspondent OF the Memphis appeal,
writing from Knoxville, Tennessee, says:
Carpet-baggers have done much for East
Tennessee. Yankee houses, precisely such
as one sees on every hillside in Connecticut,
adorn the lOftiest heights in and around
Knoxville. Yankee hammers resound in
Knoxville shops. Yankee agricultural i'm
plements, welded by Yankee hands. and
barns built bv Yankee muscle, and fences
perfected by Yankee toll, and sawmills and
factories. reared and managed by Yankee
money and Yankee enterprise, have revolu-
tionized. enriched and made East Tennessee
at this hour the most prosperous and at
tractive district have seen from Montreal
to Mobile. Why did this class of Yankees
select East Tennessee as their home2 Why
did not the historical "carpetbagger,"
whose portrait Greeley drew and died of
it-why did he not fasten his clutches upon
the heart strings of East Tennessee to
squeeze out its life bloodf There was no
peculiar odOr to attract carrion birds.
There was no class of voters to be COM
pacted against another class in deadly
enmity, and ignorance was not made an es-
sential and supreme force in government in
East Tennessee. East Tennessee suffered
as no country suffered when war ravaged
the South. and East Tennessee prospers as
never before.
