MasTERLY INACTIVITY OUR BEST
Policy.

We rely greatly upon the quiet and
conservative men of the south in shap-
ing tho temper and policy OF our peo-
pie in the immediate future, under the
provocation and indignity of the presi-
dents continued policy of usurpation
and interference, aud the passage or
enforcement of the civil rights bill.
The fight for the preservation of con-
sttutional liberty aud the perpetuity
of the republic must next commence
outside the south. We have made the
effort aud failed. The south cannot
give the cue, nor strike the blow Of
herself, which is to shake tyranny out
of the white house and corruption out
of congress. She Is in many respects
"a locker on in Vienna" and must not
throw her sword into the balance or
pass the Rubicon until her own liber-
ties are jeopardised. The north, the
east and the west must save the coun-
try. Any action of our people, how
ever so patriotic, would be liable To
suspicion and provoke distrust. If the
other sections are 30 blind and corrupt
that they will do nothing to divert the
coming storm, they must suffer, as we
have, from the caprice aud flnaticism
Of Il majority.
The developments Of the political
situation every day point to fixed de,
termination on the part of Grant to 50
manipulate Arkansas, Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi and other states az to secure
their electoral votes. The thing is as
plain ~ day. The last democratic tri-
umph, instead of warning him, has
only intensified his ambition and stub
bornness. We must bide our time and
furnish nothing to betray US into any
thing which will serve as an excuse for
interference. 1t will he better to sub
nit with patience, courage aud dignity
to usurpation, The civil rights bill, and
even carpetbaggery, than to inaugu-
rate another civil war. Every means
must he exhausted by the south in the
Interests of honorable peace. The
OWLS she now groans under time may
remedy-bloodshed would not. Moth
Ing but a mighty revolution, a great
reactionary upheaving, will stay the
encroachments of the president. Local
outbreaks of violence will only rivet
the chains the stronger. The south has
everything to gain and nothing to lose
by spirit and policy of mastery in
activity for the next two years.

The Beecher excitement has quite died out
AT first there was great rush to see him and
hear him, but now the fun is over, and last
Sunday his audience did not exceed 1000
people. He is to return to Brooklyn this
week, much to the displeasure of the Barrons
who keep the hotel where be is STAYING. They
have given him his board and $50 week to
stay and preach at their house. He thinks
they are making too much money out of him,
and demands that they pay him 5000 week.
The Barrons say this is too much, and
Beecher says, ''All right, gentlemen. | 90
home this week. Z" If you do We will sue YOU
for breach of contract, for, Mr.. Beecher, YOU
agreed to stay till the third Sunday in Sep
TENDER" Bsecher coolly replies, "Sue away,
if you like, I should think after what you
have seen of my success in the law business
that you would know better than to under
take a suit against me- The Barrons are
furious. They say they have done every
thing for Beecher; that they defended him in
the newspapers, and have petted him always.
But they can't help themselves. When Mr..
Reecher makes MP his mind TO 60 he will start
if whole regiment opposes.

OUR BOOK TABLE.

ST.. SIMoN's NIECE: A Novel By Frank Lee
Benedict. New York: Harper & Bros.
New Orleans: r. G. Eyrich.
Frank Lee Benedict has written some very
interesting and very popular novels, but ST.
soimon's Niece" is by far the most powerful Of
all his efforts. 1t is thoroughly dramatic, the
most prominent passions of the human heart
being portrayed with a master pen. The
plot is well conceived, original and striking,
Che dialogue unusually brilliant, the charac-
tiers well-marked and portrayed with great
skill Fanny, "the niece, is a passionate,
unprincipled, scheming, worldly girl, yet
withal perfectly fascinating with her odd i'm
pulses, wild ambitions, sparkling wit, and
cruel sarcasm.
ANCIENT HISTORY FROM THE MONUMENTAL
syria. BY George Smith. New York: Serb
ner, Armstrong Co. New Orleans: r. G.
Eyrich.
This is the second of series Of three little
volumes devoted respectively to the early his
tory of Egypt, Assyria and Persia, as derived
from their ruins, monuments inscriptions,
etc. The present volume is devoted to the
history Of Assyria from the earliest times to
the fall of Nineveh, as translated from the
.cuneiform inscriptions. 1t contains mass of
evidence and illustrations on manners and
customs, language and literature, throwing
much light on the earlier books of the Bible,
though differing widely from the authorized
marginal system of Chronology. The volumes
are remarkable for clearness and brevity, and
are valuable contributions to the cause of
popular science, placing before the general
reader information hitherto virtually inacces-
ssible from the reconcile manner in which
these abstruse themes have been handled by
profound scientists.
LOG Book OF FISHERMAN AND ZooEoGIsT.
By Frank Buckland, NJ. A. Illustrated.
London: Chapman i Hail. New Orleans:
r. g. Eyrich.
This delightful volume contains series of
articles, mostly within the domain of natural
history, written in railway trains, most ofthem
originally published in "Land and Water" a
London periodical devoted to natural science;
some of them, however, are reproduced from
"Temple Bar" The author is an opponent
of the Darwinian system, and staunch up
holder Of the old school doctrines. His book
is full of curious facts, interesting anecdotes
and happy illustrations, and will delight both
the child and the student.

An English Journal complains of the deca-
dence of that reverence for judicial authority
which was formerly displayed by the most
hardened of the lawless classes. 1t considers
it one of the most alarming symptoms of the
present much abused day, and illustrates its
text by an instance of horrible familiarity
which should make ones blood run cold The
particular instance was in the case of man
who, on being fined by magistrate for
drunkenness, actually addressed that digni-
tary as my dear SIR" British conservatism
shu2dered at the sacrilege, but the dignity of
the law was vindicated by the magistrate, who
gave the irreverent culprit look that might
have gorgonized the Gorgon, and in awfully
solemn tones, but at the same time with calm
and BETTING dignity, as became one who
looked down from immeasurable heights upon
a mortal unconscious of the enormity of his
offense, said, Don't dear sir me- No one,
l must tell you, is permitted to do that" And
the prisoner, unable to bear the whitening re-
buke, shrank away from the awful majesty of
that gaze, glad to hide himself in the dark
ness OF his penitential cell, while the magis-
trate reflected upon the insuficiency OF the
statutes which made no provision for the
punishment of q prisoner who dared to ad-
dress the representative OF justice as my
dear sir.

RELIEF IN CITY FINANCES.
Judge Woods Releases the Seizure
On the Funds in Bank.

Judge Woods, in the case of w. S. Peterkin
VS.. the City of New Orleans, decided Wednes-
day morning the question on the rule of the
City Attorney to set aside the seizure OF
funds belonging to the corporation deposited
in the Louisiana National Bank.
In the three cases of Jno. A. Morris, James
Wadick and w. S. Peterkin, the plaintiffs
seized in the hands of the bank the funds
there deposited to the credit of the interest
fund on the city's bonds. The city moved to
set this seizure aside on the ground that a
municipal tax was not liable to execution, as
it was by law to be devoted to specific pur-
pose.
Judge Woods read quite lengthy opinion,
in which he examined carefully all the points
raised in the case, and decided that creditor
could not levy upon municipal taxes on a
Judgment, and he therefore set aside the
seizure. This releases to the city the fund
accumulated in the bank and it will materially
remove the obstacles in the way of the city $
prosecution of its business.
The raising of the seizure will naturally
give en- impetus to city securities, as by the
decision, the taxes devoted to paying interest
are beyond the reach of creditors.
