at the fire on Prytania street, near Toledano,

We don't want our New Orleans boys
to be discourteous to visitors, Of course, but
we do want to see them win the grand regatta
on the 10Th Of July. They should bear in
mind, however, that as eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty, constant and judicious prac-
tice is the price of victory in rowing matches.
49,. The Hot Springs of Arkansas are be-
coming quite popular resort for our New
Orleans people, Tho cures of rheumatism,
neuralgia, etc., effected there are numerous
and amazing. A gentleman writing there
from says the waters are almost miraculous
in their effects, and that the springs are des-
tined to become the most famous in the world.
We shall no doubt have pilgrims coming from
all parts of the world to these wonderful
healing springs.
Those of our citizens who are in the
habit of spending Sunday on the Lake shore
are much pleased at the reduction of the price
of excursion tickets on that day by the Mo-
bile Railroad Company. There are. however,
many who leave here for the watering places
on Saturday afternoon, who are very DESTROYS
of enjoying the privilege of cheap fares that
is accorded to the Sunday excursionists, and
request us to whisper this fact in the ears of
the Railroad management
u. As it was possible fof some to fall into
an error regarding Mr.. Pressprich in read
ing the letter Of Meyer, published in the
BULLETIN, we desire to say that Mr.. Otto
Pressprich knew nothing of Meyers transac-
tons, and, when in Paris, he received the
money Meyer sent him, he turned it over
at once to his creditors. He also employed
detectives to watch HIM, and succeeded in
getting $4,000 out of him in New York.
which sum was also turned over to the
creditors.
Our live and pushing friend, Capt.
John N. Bofnger, is in St. Louis, telling the

the "Jetties." What he says about Louisi-
ana in general, and New Orleans in particular,
may be found in an article which we publish
in this issue, from the ST. Louis Times Of the
23d inst. It is about time that all Of US were
taking more cheerful aud encouraging view
Of the situation. When, we feel hopeful our
selves we will be sure to impress others with
hope. Confidence engenders confidence.
