Business is brisk. The city appears a mass
of animation. Strangers of all castles and pc
cIliarities fill our streets. The broad pave
ment of the Avenue is covered with one con-
tiuuous stream of bustling, restless humanity
from the rising of the sun until the shades of
night fall upon the city. New faces, new
equipages, new styles, new everything greet
the natives on every hand. A whirlpool in
the stream Of life, of human life, tits best to
say, seems to have fallen suddenly upon the
place and drafted into its irresistible current
the floating population Of the country. 1t is a
comprehensive compound OF men, whose in
gradients reach into every condition of society.
Men of brains and men of wealth, men of dis
tinction and men entirely unknown TO the
world, save on their own native heath; men
who are in office and men who are desirous of
being there; big guns and listle guns; the
snobs and rag-tag of society-all are here aud
help to swell the busy tide of humanity which
is restlessly sweeping through our streets from
day to day, and still increasing, still they
come.

That would be asking a good
deal of a President, who has

care, for the little interests OF

ident. He was elected to cut a

Bossier, and all of Webster and
Claiborne must be forced to
hold back their fine crops Of
cotton two and three months,
and export by Bisteneau high

Even the Minden merchants
would find it to their interest
to trade through Shreveport /;
for Shreveport is both a river
and a Railroad port for the
whole year,and Bisteneau only
a make-shift for river naviga-
tion maybe two months late in
the year. The early shipments

sier, Webster and Claiborne

New Orleans-if Mack's bayou
is closed and a good road made

vince New Orleans that her
interest is in closing Mack's

desperate expedient of excit-
ing prejudice against race and
religion.

Russia and Germany have
begun to feel the uncomforta-
BILE taxation necessary to sup
port vast military equipments.
There is no war to divert the
attention of their people. Ex-
pensive ornaments in time of
peace are apt to make those
who pay for them think, and
thinking is not particularly
relished by those who suppose
people were made to be gov
erned. Russia and Germany
are to try the policy of disarm-
ing in a mild way next year
by granting numerous military
furloughs. This is a srep,
however, towards placing Eu-
rope on a peace footing and
converting sources Of debtinto
productive agencies.

From the Shreveport. Times.l
Shreveport and N. 0. Commerce

leans has indeed taken an in
sane scare in regard to the
projected closing of Mack's
Bayou.
Perhaps I can allay its ex-
citement, by proving that the
work would be a great benefit
to the State and city.
Possibly the work might
shorten the usual term of the
navigation Of Bisteneau, but
it certainly would not destroy,
or even injure it materially
There would be time enough to
easily freight out all the cotton
going to Bisteneau landings.
On the other hand the work
would reclaim 50 square miles
Of Red River swamp in Bossier
and Red River parishes. This
assertion can be easily proven
by the land maps. The lands
| to be reclaimed in Bossier is
owned by 60 or 20 individuals,
and of course they have pro-
liected the work for their bene-
fit; but what would benefit
them thousands would benefit
the State millions. The lands
would reasonably bring to
their present owners $1.25 to
$5 per acre, when reclaimed
from overflow and uncleared /;
but when improved by clear
ing and fencing, &C., it would
average $50 per acre; or So, ,50O,- :
1000 clear gain to the wealth Of
the Parish and State. But this
is not all. Shreveport would
be the first market for all the
produce of this land.
The closing of Mack's bayou
would make a good road prac.
ticable through the swamp
from the Bossier hills to Shreve
port (nine miles); over which
the grand water shed is now
being built; and indeed the
one mile and more of this
grand work already complete
and in use, proves it a success
When this shed road is com
|pleted through to Shreveport
and Mack's bayou closed
Shreveport and New Orleans
J will receive the large crops O
cotton grown upon the hills O
Bossier, Webster and Clai
borne parishes, which formerly
are kept atthe Bisteneau portl
waiting for Spring navigation
and the loss of this storage ant
freight is the great fear Of th,
Bisteneau ports for a goo,

winter and spring, before tn
Bistenau navigation opens

as the loss Of their late navi

Organizing the Democratic Part,

From the Ouachita Telegraph
We publish today the call
for the organization Of the Demo
cratic party Of this State, signed
by leading men from large num-
Der of parishes in the State. As
we have stated, this call has been
circulated, not with the view Of
piling up signatures, but simply
to obtain the names OF leadingl
men in all the parishes. In this
particular the document publish
ed is without parallel in the poll
tical history of Louisiana, and We
trust will have its due share Of
weight. The call is designed to-
enlist all the POLITICAL elements
opposed to Radicalism in one com
mon brotherhood, and begin the
work Of aligning the people Of
Louisiana with the National Dem
ocracy as speedily as possible.
The Atlanta (Ga.) Herald (Dem)

N. Y. Sun: So far as the

their only chance depends
upon the folly and mistakes Of
the other side. Their position
is necessarily passive; and as
the organization Of the party
is controlled by the Adminis~
tration and its officeholders, it
remains with Grant to decide
whether he will run for a third
term, or put up some other
candidate with the certainty Of
his being knocked down.

The base ball season is rapidly drawing

city ave poiiiig due preparations for an
iLn orLsln. VI, lively campaign.
The Quic 4stcp team, which carries the
champion pennant, and came ont OF last
years contest with such a brilliant rec
ord, is now fully org nizcd for the sum-
mer.
In the play ers AMI their relative po-
sitions but little change has been made,
the in-field naming ex .ctly the same
as last year The full team is US follows:
Hindle, cat. her and captain Lafferty,
pitcher; Stid'am, short stop; Geary,
Clinch and Fisher on the. bases, and
Spl,in, Rogers and Stock in the field;
Ialley, tenth,man and change catcher.
This is regarded as a strong team.
The only change il the substition of
Rogers and Talley for Kelly and Brady
the latter having joined the Maple Leaf
Club.
The Quicksteps this season will play on
their new grounds-the Artic Ice Com
pany's -s,ti rink. The water has been
d.awh ..i lac rink and the ground will
be ploughed rolled and soddcd. The
| work will be completed by May lst. when
the club will go into hard practice ON the
| finest ball grounds in the State.
This year the Quicksteps will sport
handsome new uniforms which Messrs.
Hindle & Co., are supplying. They will
comprise white shirts with blue trim
mings and large 90" on the breast
and white caps.

fully, and will strive to surpass their ex-
cellcnt record Of last year.

MAN ATTEMPTS TO TAKE HIS LIFE
. BE,AUsE lie rs nI-TREAxED BY HIS
BROTHER. ..'
John s. Foote, aged about 80 years.
from Kirkenwille, Licking county, O.,
told his story at Police Headquarters,
this morning. 1t is as follows:
Several weeks ago he was visited by
his brother, who had parted from his
wife in this city. John persuaded his
brother to return, and his brother, in
return, persuaded John to come along,
which he did. t-.s .
His brothers. wife was very unwell,
and feeling sympathy for her, John
helped her with the house work, and
offered her other assistance in various
ways. I' -.+ f..
But the brother misconstrued these
attentions to his wife, and the relations
between the two men became so cool
that John, a few days ago, engaged
lodging with James Chance, Second
street, near Washington.
Last night John says his brother
kicked him out of the house This so
worked upon his feelings that he
bought ten cents worth of laudanum,
went to his lodging, drank the poison,
wrote letter explaining why he did
the deed, and then laid down,to die.
| But John had taken an overdose, and
slept heavily. The family with whom
he boarded found it impossible to rouse
him in the morning, so DR.. Shabinger
was sent for, who soon restored him.
Officer Brickle was next sent for; who
took John to the City Hall. After
staying about an hour he started for
}Stanton, where he has some relatives
residing.
