THE QUEENS SPEECH. 1.-The British Parlia-
ment was prorogued yesterday, with the
usual speech from the throne. Her Majesty
refers to the Canada Reciprocity Treaty, and
hopes for increased commercial intercourse
between that country and the United States
and considers non-interference in Spanish
affairs most conducive to peace. This is an
official answer to Earl Russelrs appeal for the
recognition of the Republic.

Gated in our correspondence from Richmond

made profound impression, and that many
OF the Southern politicians are ready to act
upon them now. In fact, our correspondent

organized in Virginia. But the result of the

DON'T NIP.

My Dear Budletin-I am surprised-yea
more I am panied at your editorial, Nip i
in the Bud 4" in. yesterday evenings edition
Do you know what you propose doing? You
cannot, or such impious suggestions would
never have been forth by you. Why, my deal
BULLETIN, what ever will become Of the bud
get for next season if you curtail the latitude
and longitude Of the estimates within the
Bureau Of Improvements Limiting the
almost boundless range afforded in cutting
grass and scraping up mud out Of cutters and
| along car tracks
Why, sir, you propose to put an end to
subjects of profound and interesting specula-
| ton to taxpayers Sir, it was only two weeks
ago that up in the Sixth District, just at the
corner where l go to roost, was given two
days most interesting study of what can be
done by that department when it tries. For
two or three months piece of plank had
been out Of the crossing, and shinbones and
lbows had been at terrible discount But
one morning eight darkeys, with another
darkey as overseer, appeared upon the scene,
and after two hours inquest upon that hole,
a mule, cart and another darkey came. There
was piece of plank in that cart, and after
about half hours meditation, the whole
gang came to the conclusion that the best
way to get that hole covered was to get the
plank out of the cart
Well, towards dinner time the job was done,
and then for the rest Of that day, and all the
next day, our neighborhood was real lively
looking with that gang, scraping the gutter
and the railroad track. Why, sir, those eight
men scraped whole square in one day. Now,
one able bodied white man would have done
more and better work in one day than that
gang did in two; but then the colored troops
foughtnobly, and then where would be any food
for reflection in looking at ordinary white men?
what of interest in comparison to looking at
a gang Of darkies doing nothing SO very hard.
Then my dear BULLETIN, there is another
phase of this whole subject which you do not
appreciate. Are you aware, sir, that our City
Council is body Of profound philosophers
Men, Sir, Of the deepest study and philoso-
sophical inquiry, with the lofty ambition to
educate this community up to the high, heroic
standard. With souls all aglow with the deep
and sublime significance of the central truth
embodied in the proverb, ''Sutfer and be
strong, they would make this people strong,
yea, noble through suffering. Seek not, then,
to check this noble purpose, by paltry and
mercenary considerations Of dcllars and cents:
give them all and every latitude and longitude
for healthy bridget.
Say no longer, Nip il in the bud,
Sing out rather, Rip it i'll the mud"
Yours intensely, MUGGINs.

THE BARBECUE AT ALTO.

We are indebted to a fri end for the follow
| NJ account of barbecue held at Alto, in the
parish Of Richland, on the 10th inst, at which
! Gov. McEnery delivered an address We
make the following extract from the letter:
The Alto meeting and barbecue came of
agreeably to appointment. The morning OF
| the 10th was ushered in amidst torrent OF
rain and it was thought that the whole affair,
on this account would prove most disas-
! trous failure. At o'clock A. NJ, Gov. Nc
Emery took the cars at this place (NIonroe) fol
| Rayville, thence to go by private conveyance
| to Alto, twelve miles south of Rayville. 1t
| rained constantly from the hour he left Mon
roe until he arrived, at half-past u o'clock.
| Gov. McEnery arriving within two miles OF
Alto, was met by mounted delegation OF lOU
young men to act as his escort to the little
village. He was informed th,t a large crowd
of gentlemen and ladies', numbering some six
or seven hundred, were assembled in the
grove awaiting his rrival to hear him speak,
Notwithstanding that the rain was still pour
ing. Reaching the grove selected for the
meeting and the barbecue the delegation dis
mounted, and placing the Monroe Silver Cor
net Band and Gov. McEnery at their head
marched in the direction of the beautifully
decorated stand erected for the orators to
speak from. Three cheers were then proposed
for Gov McEnery the rightful Governor OF
Louisiana, and they were Justify given by the
entire audience.
During all this small cannon pealed forth
at intervals. The Governor returned thanks
to the audience for the honor shown him,
made a few general remarks, and then told
the people he would not enter upon any regu-
lar discourse, as it had been intimated to him
that on account Of the inclemency Of the
weather the meeting would likely be post
poned until next day. The chairman OF the
meeting, II. F. Vickers, then took the sense
almost unanimously decided that he should
he went, and, after speaking an hour, said to
the crowd it was too bad thus to detain them,
particularly the ladies' in the rain.
The response went up from men and women,
''Go ahead; we can stand it, and SO he con
tinued for another hour, and the rain and
Gov. McEnery ceased together. The people
were then invited to the most magnificent
dinner ever seen set in the woods.
After dinner the young people repaired to
hall close by and danced until morning Next
day at II O'clock A. NJ. a large crowd Of la
dies and gentlemen assembled in the grove,
and Major Young and Gov. McEnery spoke
for two hours, after which the voters in that
section organized White Mans Club.
Never in any campaign has there been so
much enthusiasm and political fervor as was
evinced at Alto, and could a similar feeling be
aroused throughout the State, nothing could
resist its sway. The white people in Richland
are thoroughly united, and more negro votes
will be controlled in this way than by any
timid or negative policy.

selected four gentlemen, best known to those

one to the other of these gentlemen, the last
person hiding it without the knowledge Of
the other three. The operator then entered
the room and was blindfolded He read the
thought Of the first person, and BY this means
rapidly traced the article to the second gen

secreted it eventually finding the nticle
itself, which had been hid in N out-ofthe-

the verge Of starvation, and drive them to the

ing read the manuscript of the work of Mrs.

the life of Capt. Fry, work of purely dis

The subject matter is full Of deep inter
est. The character and private life Fry were
very noble and full of variety. As he led an
adventurous and sea-taring life - possessed
Of a very remarkable mind and rare intelli-
gence, his observations of men and manners
are of value. The journals of which Mrs.
Walker has availed herself are peculiar and
are full of close remark and lively incidents.
Hi, descriptive powers were fine, and his
scientific attainments are known to the world.
The character of such a man and his fame
are possessions which l. as a Southern woman.

Walker has treated her material well. She
has worked it up admirably. She is a remark
able compiler, which think requires special
