Whenever Vicksburg indulges in riots,
assassinations and murders, it is her fate to
be robbed of the honors of turbulepce and
negro killing by the blunders of the Asso-
ciated Press agents. Vicksburg is one of
the way stations of this world, and news
getting out of that place is filtered through
the main depots of intelligence. Accounts
of her murders are reshipped from other
points, and the Vicksburg marks are often
obiterated. Thus it happened that the
latest killing, which should have been
credited to the Mississippi battlefield, was
located at various places. The New Or
leans agent of course dated his dispatch
where Ben johnson was killed, and where
Parson Marshall talked in the courthouse,
and We find Louisville and Washington
papers commenting on the riot in New Or
leans. The Chicago papers received the
news by the Arkansas route, and the Inter
Ocean is compelled to leo ture Little Rock
on the wickedness of killing colored men.
We protest against bearing the sins of
Vicksburg, even by imputation; but suppose
it must be submitted to, for it has happened
before, and there is no law to compel a
press agent to mention the location of a
murder in the body of his dispatch, and no
known means competent to induce one to
send over-intelligent accounts. The Asso-
ciated Press agent appears to think his duty
done when he states that some one has been
killed, and the public locates it according to
fancy,

Yellow Fever.

At the meeting of the New Orleans Medi.
cal Association, held last evening, DR.. c. B.
White, president of the Board of Health,
read very interesting and elaborate paper
on yellow fever. Its origin, localizati on and
ext,rpation, 80 far as evidenced by facts,
were clearly narrated Its origin has not
yet been discovered, although an abundance
of testimony inclines to the germ theory.
The seed or germ eludes the eye and the
microscope, and only actual practice can
discover the best method of checking its
growth and spread. DIR. White is an ad-
vocate of the use of carbolc acid for the
purpose of localizing the disease and pre-
venting its becoming epidemic, and cites
numerous exa xampies of its efficacy. There
we're, indeed, cases of recurrence of fever
in localities where disinfection had been
made, but it also seemed clear that
1T required in precisely those places
where disinfection had been imper-
feot or avoided. New Orleans had
frequently held the disease in check in
a radius covering few blocks by means of
disinfection, as she has this season, while
other cities where it was not practiced had
suffered extremely. There have been sew
enty-eight deaths in ten weeks here, while
in a much shorter period other cities had
suffered greater mortality.
Quarantine was useful in preventing the
importation of new cases, and the fever
from gaining a foothold before cold weather.
1t then probably assumed resting form.
and was revived in warmer or more favor
able season. 1t spread along surfaces ap
parently, and the disinfectant destroyed the
germs or poison in the lower strata of the
atmosphere. Examples were cited OF cases
where the fever in its most malignant form
had appeared in the middle of vessel, or
one side of q street, and in different rooms
of the same house, and been avoided by
other inmates or inhabitants near.
The doctor was followed by Messrs. Holt,
Perry, Lewis, Crawcour, Menaigre, Devron
and Harrison in general remarks, which
tended to illustrate the soundness of the
disinfectant system pursued by the Board
of Health, although not without slight
dissent by two of the speakers.
As discussion on the subject of the use
of carbolio acid as preventive of yellow
fever is to be had three weeks from now,
and all the members desiring to do SO were
not prepared to do justice to their views
last night, it was thought proper by the sa.
vans not to give publicity to the discussion
until it had finally closed.

this State and Pennsylvania. 1t will
increase and embitter the discord which
now reigns il the Democratic household.
The ascendency of imitation in Ohio will
settle the policy of the Liberal Republicans
and the policy of the independent" Re-
publican vote of the North in regard to the
Presidential election of next year. Mr..
Schurz spoke for this Liberal and indie
pendent Republican sentiment in his late
speech at Cincinnati.
THE, then, is the political situation, as
that situation connects itself with the
leading State of the West. In either case
the one distinct issue on which the Presi-
dental election will be fought in 1876, is
the preservation Of the national
faith and credit against initiation and
reputation. The national Republicans
stand for the national faith and
credit. The Confederate Democracy stand
for reputation and imitation. Let every
Republican preosre for the duty which Is
TO follow the Ohio election. If we carry
the State We should guard against the over
confidence and supineness which victory
is so apt to produce. If the Confederate
Democracy carry the State, then let us pre-
pare to turn the victory into the cause OF
our final triumph. b.

Senator Pease Discusses nlississipp
Affairs with the President.
Ex-Senator Pease had long interview
to-day with the President on the subject of
mississippi, including causes of the difficult
ties, present condition of affairs and re-
needles. The President talked freely and
said be was much gratified that the two
fohtlcal parties had effected an amicable
adj dlustipent, by which fair election would
be heiu and peace be maintained in the
State. Efforts have been heretofore made
by Senator Bruce and friends for the re-
moval OF four federal officers in Mississippi,
but MIR. Pease has assurances that no re-
movals would be made in that State for
mere partisan reasons. Attorney General
Pierrepont assured him that none coming
under his department would be disturbed.
The Fast Mail.
The Postmaster General has directed, in
compliance with the request of Postmaster
Filey, of st. Louis, that a Encouragement of
the schedules for fast mail service between
New York, ST. Louis and the Southwest be
| made prior to the first proximo for all such
| matter that naturally belongs to the Penn
sylvania' railroad and eau be advanced
| thereby, and orders it to be sent by that line
instead of the New York Central and Lake
Shore route.
This new arrangement will save to the
Department the expense of an unnecessarily
| long haul, and insure quicker delivery Of
| the mail between the East and Southwest
on or near the line between st. Louis and
Pttsburg to which closed pouches are sent.
| 1t will also, in measure, alleviate the in
! conveniences and delays now caused by the
| lack of railway postal car service between

GENTLEMEN-I duly received your com.
munjcation of the thirteenth instant, and
in reply beg to say that fully recognize my
duty to listen to complaints either of indi-
viduals or assembled citizens aggrieved by
any act, direct or indirect, OF mine, or of
those associated with me in our educational
work, and for whose conduct Imay be justly
responsible.
Considering the Importance of relieving
the cause of public education from embar-
| rassment and depressing influences of ad-
verse criticism, whether from just causes or
unreasoning hostility, | waive the many
tecuulCai ouJectlOns WHicu, IL observed,
would preclude hearing of your com.
plant. The law requires notice OF
''ten days. to assemble the State Board of
| Education in special session; this and the
! fact that the division superintendents are
| engaged in preparing the annual reports
peremptorily required by law and the ex-
animation Of data in their respective divis-
| ions, make it impracticable to convene the
| State Board before November 4, proximo.
| Hoping this will meet the reasonable re-
cate your complaints to the members of the
city school board. You will thus be fur.
nished with the opportunity for full hear
ing and an impartial decision.

at No. 235 Gasquet street. The lovers of
the delicious article may be grati6ed by q

James H. Young has also fine quality of

There is NO good reason why the fruits OF
our section of country should not be put up

Some time since serious charges were
published in the New Orleans Times against
DR.. j. w. Jones, the superintendent, and
his wife, the matron Of the State Insane
Asylum at jackson. The charges were
made on the authority of Mrs. and Miss
Anderson, formerly employed at the
asylum, but just previously discharged.
DR.. Jones has taken occasion to visit the
city, and in vindication of his good name
has exhibited to the State officials papers
signed by all the leading citizens of the
parish. and by all the employees of the
asylum, denying the statements made
by the Andersons. The evidence is sufi.
cient to show that the charges were mais
cious, and that the superintendent and -
lady are held in the highest esteem by
their neighbors, employees and patients.

s'The Two Orphnns.o

This somewhat celebrated play has been
advertised to be performed at the St.
Charles Theatre tonight by w. j. Cogs.
wells dramatic combination. The play is
translation from the French, founded upon
novel which has been published in this
country under the title of 1.-THE Depth of
Sisters Love-" The version as performed
at the Union Square Theatre, in New York,
is the work of Mr. Hart jackson. To that
version Messrs. Shook g. Palmer claim espe-
cial right. In the meantime the play has
been produced in London, and we are told
it is the Londen version Mr.. Cogswell
claims the right to act. The question of
copyright has been raised in all of the prin-
cipal cities of this country where the play
has been acted without the sanction of the
New York managers, and "The Two Or.
phans' have been courted more than any
other dramatic production, and through the
courts it has been best advertised. IL was
hardly to be expected that New Orleans,
famous for litigation, would escape such
trial, and yesterday upon petition iilad, as
published elsewhere, a writ of injunction
was issued from the Superior District Court
for the parish of Orleans. The copy served
on Mr.. Strong, reads as follows:
To Robert Strong, New Orleans Louisiana, Greet.
ing
Shook 81 Palmer vs.. w. ]. Cogswell ct
al.-You are hereby commanded, enjoined
and restrained, in the name Of the Safe of
Louisiana and of the Superior District
Court for the parish of Orleans, from pre-
ducing or giving apy representation, or
causing to be produced or represented,
either at the st. Charles Theatre or else
where in the city of New Orleans, the
dramatic production or play, entitled or
called the Two Orphans" or from permit
| ting the production or representation thereof
| at the st. Charles Theatre, in said city, by
| any one, and especially w. j. Cogswell or
| his associates, and from aiding or assisting
| in such representation thereof by said
| Cogswell. And you are go enjoined until
| the further order of this honorable court.
Witness, the Hon. Jacob Hawkins, judge
| of the said court, the sixteenth day of Oc-
| tober, in the year of our Lord 1873.
| P. E. BURKE, Deputy Clerk.
| This writ was received By Mr.. Robert
Strong-who is neither manager, actor,
theatrical proprietor nor agent with some
surprise; but, so far as he is concerned, he
will obey the injunction to the letter. Mr.
Strong keeps a lodging and coffeehouse on
| St. Charles street, and not if he knows it
! will any "Two Orphans be produced on
his premises. MIR. De Bar, proprietor and
manager of the st. Charles Theatre, is in
St. Louis. MIR. Cogswell and his company
will arrive to-day and play tonight, it ia
said. Mr. Gleason, De Bars treasurer,
who, we understand, has also been served
| with the writ, smiles sercnely ut the strict.
ures put upon his friend Strong, and thus
the case stands. The "rwo Orphans" will
make a sensat ton, and the question OF
whether or not they are to stay with us will
probably be settled on Monday,

An evening paper of this city publishes
the following: Through a gentleman ar
rived to-day from St. Pierre, the French
colony in British North America, intelli-
gence has been received of a most terrible
series OF assassinati0ns in single night,
and for the purpose of robbery. A whole
family, consisting of an aged man, a mil
lionaire, named Francois DLescales, his
son-in-law, M. Cartier, and his wife, and
two sons and daughter, and one Foquet,
the keeper of their villa, were foully muir
dered on the morning OF the fifth or late on
the night of the fourth instant. Mr.. Dies
Gales mansion is situated about half mile
outside the town of st. Pierre. Mr., Dies
Gales never had the custom of depositing
his money in banks, and it is therefore GER
tain that the burglars and assassins have
secured an enormous booty"

nies the existence of any conspiracy or COM

county, and alleges that the county of New

action renders the complaint defective.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN,:
Pleasanton is pleasant little town about
twenty miles from San Antonio, and the
county seat of the county of Attascosa.
About a month ago the citizens of this
happy little village were guilty of an indis-
discretion that consigned one Of them, who
failed to evade the sheriff. to the new, COM
modious pleasant and secure Jail of Pleas.
anton. The offense, of which there was no
doubt of the guilt of the inmate of the
Pleasanton bastile, was having distinguished
himself, in company with his missing part
ner. in attacking the cabin of a colored
man on the outskirts of this Texas Auburn,
cutting and slashing him with their knives
until his life is despaired of, dragging his
wife. who was not very black and quite
comely, into the bushes and there ravishing
her.
