bright intelligence and tender feeling

less possesses but the question raised
by this proceeding on the part OF Mr..
Hall is not one OF virtue, but Of special
capacity and training. An actor could
not become lawyer by having
his name painted in gold letters on
Q black sign; and no more can q
his whiskers and learning part. Mr..
Hall has passed in safety through try
ing ordeal-not more creditably than
was anticipated by those who knew
him, but certainly with credit. We
should forget, however, what Is due
to dramatic art and TO the men
and women-few, but noble and
honOrable-who expend their lives in
its patient, conscientious, faithful and
loving pursuit, were we here TO mistake
for q success In acting what, in fact,
was no more than a success Of energet-
ic will, keen intelligence, and fervent,
and amiable egotism. II Mr.. Hall

down carpet-bag and radical negro
governments; we have shown their
venom, their blunders and their spolia-
tions, both upon the liberty and rights
Of the citizen and the public purse.
Therefore we must show that we are
willing and able to put in practice
those measures for public good, that the
actions OF the Radicals have shown
them to be incapable Of. This also
renders the position Of the people, s
legislator, one Of marked Importance,
friends centred upon them, but also the
enemy are depending for future success
on the hope OF their SHINING.
We doubt not but that the house Is
composed Of men Of ability and patriot
ism, and in looking over the field in
search of even the shadow OF fatal er-
ror, upon which we might be wrecked,
we find none, save OF discOrd; upon
union alone depends success. That
shadow we fear, and that fear pefvtdes
the mind Of the entire people.
1t is one thing to talk craftsmanship
and another to act the statesman, and
we must now, In Louisiana, have q
practical demonstration Of it.
Our statute books are full of material
upon which to work. Bad laws are to
be repealed and good ones enacted, to
replace them, unless this is done, then
we have no hope of future success, for
more reasons than one. Our people
look upon their Legislators with calm
ness and hope, not unmingled with
fear, however, and woe betide them,
should they be faithless to the trust
reposed In them. II betrayed, the
State, it's people and all is lost, and
upon those who could have averted
such calamity and did not, will rest
the curse of generations yet unborn.

A Man Cuts His wife's Throat With Z
Carving Knife.

At II o'clock yesterday V. Wingarter,
while under the influence OF liquor, at
tackled his wife with q carving knife and
cut her throat, from the effects OF which
she died at 8 o'clock.
The affair occurred at their residence,
In the rear portion Of Algiers. From
the neighbors II was ascertained that
they had lived peacefully together fora
number OF years as man and wife, and
he was always very kind to her, except
when he was under the influence OF
liquor, on which occasions he would
beat and maltreat her.
They also stated that she was In the
house yesterday. When he came In he
Immediately started cursing and
abusing her. When she attempted to
leave, he placed himself at the door
and refused to let her out. She then
tried to force her way, when he leaned
over the table, grabbed the carving
knife and cut her throat.
Frightened at the horrible spectacle,
he ran out in the street and tried to
make his escape, but was captured by
Officer Bejou, who locked him up IN the
Eighth Suburban Station on the charge
OF murder.

A RIOT IN GRETNA.
A MAN AND A WOMAN KILLED.

AS we 60 TO press we learn that the
Chief of Police has called out all the
men to be spared from the different
Stations, aud ordered them across the
river, some crossing at Gretna and
some at Algiers, to form u junction at
Freetown, where it is reported u riot
was going on.
The fire bells were rung violently at
Gretna, and general alarms turned in,
and many thought that there was a
large fire there; but soon u rumor
reached the city that riot among the
negroes of Freetown had commenced,
and with all dispatch the Metropolitans
were called over.
We learn that a man named Barney
McCabe and a woman named Celestine
Roux were killed. McCabe's brains
were blown out while taking a drink
and the woman shot through the neck.
There were two negroes arrested,
charged with the offcnse William
Burns and Isaac Stratman.

Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune.l
After the holidays there will be at
least one hundred congressman s wives
and daughters here, and it has been
proposed. that they organize a female
Congress-. Every State would be we'll
represented, and the grave questions Of
etiquette which arise here could be dis
cussed and decided. There are scan
dals, also, which need investigation, and
which play an important part in the
winters chronicles. It is not very long
ago since some scandalous anonymous
letters were traced SO directly to the
wife of Cabinet officer that he was
forced to resign his portfolio, although
this, the real cause Of his retirement,
was kept out Of the newspapers. It is
not to be expected, however, that there
should not Be deal Of gossip, flying to
and fro like shuttle, ID the parlors Of
hotels and at the morning receptions.
People will talk, and an innuendo, with
a knowing shrug Of the shoulders, will
often be tAe foundation for startling
rumQr.

SUICIDE.
THE FATAL DRAUGHT.

Mr.. A. II. Steinhousen, apparently
about twenty three years OF age, and
druggist by occupation, committed sui
eide Friday night, ut his lodgings in AL
giers, by taking morphine.
On investigation we learned that Mr..
Steinhousen arrived in this city about
ten days ago, on the steamer Rio Bravo,
and took up his abode In Algiers. On
his arrival here he had some money,
amounting to about $50. This he soon
lost by gambling. The loss preyed upon
his mind to very great extent, and
giving up all hopes Of getting employ
meDt, lie concluded to end his earthly
career by his own hands. Below we
give letter that the deceased had
written to his bosom friend, Mr.. A..
Corday, before taking the fatal drug:

THE ARMY TO BE REDUCED AND THE STEAL
INGs IN THE NAVY BUREAU TO BE STOPPED.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.--There is much
tribulation in army circles ut the pros
pect Of q large reduction Of the army
expenditures. An unusual number OF
army officers are In this city, who have
undoubtedly come here to concert some
measures in their own behalf.
The Committee on Military Affairs
will, during the recess, digest bill to
reorganize the army on the basis OF 49,
600 men, and this, of course, will require
the retirement OF q large number OF
staff and line officers. Provisions will,
of course, have to be made for those
who are retired, by giving them
a year or six months pay In ad-
will bring every influence they can
command to bear TO prevent any reduc-
ton, and IL this fails, as 1t undoubtedly
will, then to secure the best possible
terms for those who have to step down
and out After the Military Committee
has perfected the details of the reorgan.
ization, its bill will be incorporated In
the Army Appropriation bill, and then
the Senate will have to accept it.
The Navy Department is in almost as
great stew as the army officers are
over the threatened investigations and
exposures that will follow upon the re.
assembling Of Congress. There will
unquestionably be some rich develop.
ments in this quarter, and more than
one bureau officer is quaking in his
boots. Old John Roach has. been hang.
ing about Washington all this month
doing his level best to get on good terms
with the new members. The bill intro.
duced in the Senate by Mr.. Boutwell,
the other day was inspired by Roach
and the object is to divert the attention
of Congress and the country from the
jobbery Of the past.
