SHERIDAN.
He is Ignorant Of Our Political
Middle.

To the average citizen, colored or other
wise, the presence of Gen. Phil Sheridan in
New Orleans on the eve of such an important
event as the assembling of the Legislature in
extra session, to consummate projected

Thinking that he may have visited us in

doing in the event of anything lively at the
State. House, q representative of the BuLIE-
TIN called upon him last evening, and ex-
pressed q desire to be posted, and to know
whether he contemplated utilizing Gen. De
Trobriand, if anybody became obstreperous,
or what in reality would be the upshot Of it.
Phil replied that he had failed to post himself
in regard to the political situation and out
look, therefore could not say what DISPOSE
ton would be made Of his forces. He says
he is Just now occupied with the problem o
getting those interlopers out from among tn
Black Hills.

THE FLOW OF HUMAN BLOOD
A Desperate Shooting and Cutting
ARRAY.

At about Z o'clock last evening serious
difficulty occurred in the bar-room at the
corner of Girod and Church streets, between
Messrs. George G. Schneider and st. Bernard
Bouet, in which the former received pistol
ball just above the right nipple, while the
latter was badly cut in the left elbow with a
knife.
A BULLETIN reporter immediately visited
the man who was shot, at his residence, cor
ner Of Girod and Church streets. over the
bar in which the difficulty occurred. MI.
Schneider tried to make q statement but was
too weak for much to be elected from him.
He said that it was family feud and that he
and Bouet got into difficulty, when Bouet
drew his pistol and shot him. The wound is
in the right breast and just above the nipple,
the ball passing into the body and lodging
there.
Mr.. Schneid er was ut that time vomiting
large Jumps of clotted blood, and Dr.. Tanney,
who attended him, pronounced the wound
dangerous, but not necessarily fatal Inward
hemorrhage was feared and there is very little
hope of his living Mr.. st. Bernard Bouet,
who was arrested and lodged in the Central
Station, was then visited and made the follow
ing statement:
L am the proprietor Of the BARRON No. 2lO
Julia street, have been acquainted with
Schneider for seven years, and We were good
friends He has daughter whom l taught
to play upon the Lutte. I have been teaching
her since 1871, and we have given several
concerts together. To-day was her seven
teenth birthday, and was invited to partici-
pate in the celebration. This morning
Schneider came to my bar and insulted me-
did not notice him.
This evening I went to his bar-room on
the corner of Church and Girod streets. Is
entered he insulted me and then attacked me
with knife and cut me, when | drew my
pistol and shot him; and think was right.
| / could do nothing else. l am in prison now,
but it is poor reward after supporting him
and his family for some years, which my
books will show. l have resided in New Or.
leans for twenty years and was formerly
cashier in Miller's restaurant, St Charles
street.
I am q gentleman and have never been in Q
scrape before; but I will be out of it soon
When went to the bar-room I was little
under the influence of liquor. I was en-
gagged to Schneider's daughter, but suppose
this will break it off.
Mr.. Bouet showed us the wound in the lef
elbow, which at the time was bleeding quite
freely, but was pronounced by the physician
who dressed it not dangerous.

THE RACES.
Glorious Sport To-Day.

The present prospects are peculiarly bright
for q brilliant race to-day at the Jockey
Club. The sain of yesterday, although quite
heavy, did not seriously affect the track as it
is readily drained, and then, too, the wind
and sun of to-day have united in drying it
up. Although the course will not be fast, it
will be in racing order.
For the first race we understand the entries
will be numerous and this dash OF three
quarters of mile contested by a large field
Of colts.
In the Louisiana Stake, two mile heats for
four year olds, there are expected to be
brought out some of the best horses on the
track and already there has been betting on
some of the probable starters.
For the mile dash for three year Odds there
will be large field, and it is limited Cottrill
will carry of this event with favorite FLY.
The latest from the track brings US the
pleasant intelligence that it had improved so
yesterday. by this afternoon it will be firm
for the feet of foot. In the colt race the en-
tries are SO numerous betting is heavy, and
the uncertainty Of naming the winner made
the pools 60 off last night like hot cakes.
Those who wish to see such sport as has sci.
dom been offered in the South, should not
fail to 90 out, and from what can be gathered
there are hundreds Of little parties making
up to visit the track by omnibuses and the
cars. Buggies are already at premium and
the road will present lively appearance
about 2 o'clock.
The pools last night sold as follows:

CRUEL CLINTON.
NEW ORLEANS. April 9, 1875.


Editor New Orleans Bulletin:
Can you inform the people why MIR. Clinton
does not issue his warrant on the State
Treasurer in favor of the Charity Hospital tor
moneys which belong to the poor, sick and
intirn at present in that institution?
A few days since it is well known that Mr.
Charles Howard paid into the State Treasury
ten thousand dollars. That, amongst other
revenues, is strictly intended to be devoted to
the support of the Charity Hospital. APpil-
cation has been repeatedly made to Mr.. Gin
ton, or at his Office, by Mr.. d. G. Mcean, who
i, the chairman of the Finance Committee OF
the Board of Administrators, and as often
refused warrant on the Treasurer for that
money, of which he, as the chief financial
officer of the hospital. should be the imme-
date custodian.
These facts learned whilst on visit to the
hospital on last Sunday, and the fact that the
money is wanted Immediately to purchase
bread for the five hundred poor, sick and IN
firm inhabitants. The case is surrounded
with aggravating circumstances, not devoid
of some suspicion. It is my firm conviction
that if more attention were paid by the people
to such matters it would be better for all con-
cerned: an occasional visit there would be in
teresting and prove salutary; it might tend TO
the inquiry, why change Of sheetlng Is not
on hand for the beds? Why the grocers,
bakers, milkmen and vegetable vendors are
creditors of the establishment, and are crying
aloud for their money, now uDjustly detained
in the Treasury of the State. Mr.. Mclean,
with zeal which deserves praise, has con-
tributed frequently out of his own private
means to keep want out Of its doors.
CITIZEN
The above has been upon our table for
some days and should have been published
before, but was inadvertently overlooked.
We cannot understand why Clinton should
hesitate to warrant for the appropriation to
the Charity Hospital, except upon the by
pothesis that that individual has been making
heavy and illegal drafts upon the funds
specially provided for the Hospital, and medi'
tates another war upon "rebel skunks IN
the country. The Hospital is certainly the
most deserving institution in the State and
stands in immediate and pressing need oil
every dollar of money appropriated for it
support We think Clinton should receive
the early attention of the Legislature.
The report Of that investigating committee
should be called for, and if the facts disclosed
warrant it he should be impeached at once
az he has been a most bitter and implacabl'
enemy of the people, most reckless handler
of the pubic funds, q scorner of and violatol
of law, and in all things most reprehen
sible public official. From cur standpoint, NJ
valid appropriation was made for any purpos
whatever, inasmuch as the House of Repre-
sentatives never had legal quorum, bu
from Clinton's standpoint the appropriation
for the Charity Hospital must be considere
as equally valid with the appropriation TO
mileage and per diem for which he issue'
warrants.

What They do in Naples.

Festivals, begging, dining, and doing
nothing are the favorite occupations OF
| these people. This is one of the countries
where even beggar rides if possible.
They cannot understand how any one
foot, unless he shows too plainly that he
is stranger (all foreign pedestrians get
the name "Inglesi" may go his
way without much fear of beggars; he
soon has the reputation of being pittore,
or beggar himself; not an enviable repu-
tation, perhaps, but one which, about Ma
pies, saves the unending torment of being
followed and called after by every second
man, woman or child you meet, asking
for a few centessimi On one of the holl-
days dozen or twenty people of all kinds
priests, monks, porters, women-get a
sort of cart, catesso, or calesh and piling
in, from the patriarch to the infant in
arms, away they 60 for picnic.
But, of course there is some business
done in so large city as Naples; the
people do not all ride and walk and look
at each other. The shopkeepers know
that the foreigners who visit their city are
fond of beautiful things, and fill their
shops accordingly There are many jew
elry stores, and very beautiful ornaments
of coral, most delicately tinted with pink,
and of lava from Vesuvius, and of tortoise
shell. The girls who read this sketch
would be delighted to go into one of the
large manufactures where they make
these beautiful articles. And there, too,
these things are very cheap, for the coral
and tortoise-shell, and lava are obtained
close by Naples, and the workmen receive
small wages, and the merchants are
anxious to get your money. Then there
wood, beautifully carved, and brought
from Sorrento, city near by. Beautiful
silk goods are made here; the girls who
read st. Nicholas all know of the ''GrOs
de Naples" Violins, too are among the
things which these people can make
better than almost any others, and
we need not wonder how so many little
Italian boys about our streets, as ragged
as they are little, yet play so easily on this
instrument; they come from the land OF
violns There is another article in the
manufacture of which you would be in
terested, and that is macaroni. AS you
ride along the west shore toward Vesuvius,
you see building after building i'll which,
and before which, the long white maca-
roni or vermicelli, is hung up on poles to
dry. Inside is the machine which kneads
the flour into paste, and the iron cylinder
into which the stiff dough is placed, when
big FOUNDER shoves it down tight until
the little stems come through the holes in
the bottom of the cylinder and are pulled
off every few minutes and hung up to dry
The Italians can eat macaroni almost as
fast as they can make tin fact, during
their meal it seems that there is one I'M
broken string of it passing from their
dishes into their mouths. Nicholas

Mingling the Milk of Different Cows.

At recent meeting of the dairymen,
one of the members gave some interesting
details in regard to experiments in ming
ling the milk and cream of different breeds.
He found that the mixed milk from two
breeds will not produce a. much butter
as will the same milk churned separately.
The explanation is in the variation in the
size of the globules When large glob-
uled milk and a small globuled milk are
churned together the large globules sepa-
rate first into butter, and the breaking Of
the smaller globules appears to be re-
tarded. When, therefore, Jersey COW is
kept in an Ayrshire or Dutch herd for the
purpose of influencing the color of the
butter the larger globules of the Jersey
milk are broken first in the churn, and,
while the smaller globules are being
broken, the butter which came first is be-
ing overchurned, and-theoretically, at
least-the quality of the results impaired
if not the quantity lessened. When a few
Ayrshire or Dutch cows are kept in herd
of Jerseys and the milk churned together
both theoretically and practically, large
portion of the butter of the small glob-
uled milk is left in the buttermilk in a
state of globules A like application may
be made to herds of native or grade COWS.
Unless there is uniformity within certain
limits in the milk globulc there is loss
of product. When uniformity is so sell
dom found in the external shapes of a
grade or native herd, it is not probable
that any greater uniformity exists between
their functions.-N. Y. Herald.

Don't Worry About Yourself.

To retain or recover health, persons
should be relieved from anxiety concern
ing disease. The mind has power over
the body. For person to think he has
a disease, will often produce that disease.
This we see effected when the mind is in
tensely concentrated upon the dis
pitfalls that surgeons and physicians who
make speciality of certain diseases are
liable to die of them themselves; and the
mental power is so great that sometimes
people die of diseases which they have
only in imagination. We have seen a per-
son seasck in anticipation of voyage,
before reaching the vessel. We have
known a person to die of cancer in the
stomach, when they had no cancer or any
other mortal disease. A blindfolded man
slightly pricked in the arm has tainted
and died from believing that he was bleed
ing to death. Therefore, we'll persons,
to remain well, should be cheerful and
happy; and sick persons should have their
attention directed as much as possible
from themselves. 1t is by their faith that
men are saved; and it is by their faith
they die. AS man thinketh so he is. If
he wills not to die, he can often live in
spite of disease; and if he has little or
no attachment to life, he will slip away
as easily as child will fall asleep. Men
live by their souls and not by their bod
les. Their bodies have no life of them
selves; they are only receptacles of life,
tenements for their souls, and the will has
much to do in continuing the physical oc-
cupancy or giving it up.
