To the City Council of New Orleans:
beg leave to submit the following report
of water rents collected on account of the
year beginning October l, 1875, viz:
Collected in First District. ..... .$l5, $3.50 80
Collected in Second District. 9,S9S 90
Total. .$24,97s 80
Also herein inclosed you will find com.
munication from the Surveyor, wherein he
recommends the rejection of all bids for
the building and repair of crib work neces.
sary in the extension of the Waterworks
suction pipe, with further suggestion that
the batture in the immediate vicinity of the
pipe be dredged to sufficient depth as to
enable the engine to work satisfactorily.
Acting on the latter, have had the work
done by the Usage, at cost of $500. This
will preclude the necessity of undertaking
the crib work at a heavy expense to this
department.
In closing, would respectfully recon-
mend that all bids be rejected and their
accompanying deposits returned.

GOD.
o thou, Eternal One, whose presence bright
All space must oecupy-al motion guide;
Unchanged through times all devastating flight,
Thou only GOD. There is no God beside,
Being above all beings, mighty Onel
Whom none can comprehend and none ex-
pore
Who flpst existence with Thyself alone,
Embracing all, supporting, ruling DER!
Being whom we call God, and know no more Z!
Thv chains the unmeasured universe surround.
Upheld by Thee, by Thee inspired with breath
Thu the D, ginning with the end was bound,
And beautifully mingled life and death!
As spar ks mount upward from the fiery blaze,
30 suns are born and worlds spring forth from
Thee;
Shine around the sllvery snow the pageantry
or heavens bright army glitters in Thy praise.
A million torches lighted by Thy hand,
Wander unwearied through the blue abyss:
They own Thy power, accomplish Thy command.
AL gay with life, all eloquent with bliss,
What shall we call them? Piles Of crystal light?
A glorious company OF golden streams?
Lamps celestial ether burning bright?
Suns lighting systems with their joyous beams?
But Thou to them art as the moon to night
Yes. as the drops of water to the sea,
ALI this maguIfcence in Thee is lost:
What are ten thousand worlds compared to
Thee
And what am I, then? Heavens unnumbered
host,
Though multiplied by myrads, and arrayed
In that glory Of sublimest thought,
ls but an atom in the balance weighed
Against Thy greatness-is a cipher brought
Against infnity. What am II Naught.
Nothing l-but the eff1uence of Thy light divine,
Pervadng worlds, hath reached my bosom too;
Yes, in my spirit doth Thy spirit shine,
As shines the sunbeams ia drop Of dew
Naught ?-but live, and on hopes pinions fly,
Eager toward Thy presence; for in Thee
I live and breathe, and dwell, aspiring high;
- Fen to the throne of Thy divinity,
am, o God, and surely Thou must be!
Thou art directing, guiding all, Thou art!
Direct my understanding, then. to Thee;
Control my spirit, guide my wandering heart.
Though but an atom midst immensely,
Still am something, fashioned by Thy hand
hold . middle rank, 'twixt Heaven and earth,
On the last verge Of mortal being stand
Close to the realms where angels have their
birth,
just off the boundaries Of the spirit land!

TritOns and Bacchus.

A correspondent writing of the works
recently found at Rome says The
Tritons are fine, mastery works in the
best style of the Antoninian period, full
of life, expression, and animation.
They evidently formed pair, for the
action of one is reversed in the other.
Each had one arm extended, and these
are wanting from the shoulder the
others are broken at the elbow. Their
hair is bound with fllet,, and stands
out around the brows in great radia-
tions Of thick, massive, curled locks,
not unlike the arrangement of that of
the Apollo Belvedere. excepting, of
course, the knot on the top of the head.
On their eyebrows, cheeks, and follow
ing the lines of the principal muscles
OF the body, are leaf like scales. On
the hair of these statues there are con-
siderable traces of guiding. The BAG
chus is represen ted with all the more
feminine characteristics of that divin-
ity. His hair is bound with ivy-leaves
and berries, and he is reclining back
wards, with the right hand resting on
his head, which is turned aside to the
left, in an attitude of sensuous, voIup-
tuous repose, the upper eyelids half
closed upon the pupils, which are in
cised, as are also those of the Tritons
and the bust of Commodus. The left
arm is wanting, but what is so rare in
antique statues, the nose is perfect
This statue may with certainty be at
tributed to the time of Hadrian."
