A TUSSLE FOR THE LEAD.

Yesterday afternoon there was quite . bril-
liant trial of speed between crews of two Of
bur rival rowing clubs, the Orleans and River.
sides, on the river. The whole affair grew
out Of badinage between the friends of either
club, and eliminated, as we have said, in
scrub race. The course was from the eleva-
tor down TO the boat house of the Riversi des,
some two and one-quarter miles. and it was
considered somewhat uncertain which crew
would gain the laurels.
After fair start the Orleans drew away,
and with long, sweeping stroke, took the
lead. The Orleans boys displayed much bot
tom and courage and keeping up their stroke,
they crossed the line, winners by ten lengths.
Although no time was taken, it is safe to say
it will take four Harry Coulters in boat to
give the back wash to the Orleana The fol.
lowing were the contestants:
Riverside Club crew in the gig-G. g. Ramelli;
Mr. Gallagher, stroke; E. Mahan No. 8; 4. Rey-
nolds, No. 2; VIM. Doran, bow; -, coxswain..
Orleans Club crew in the gig-Capt. Farwell;
Owen Reilly, stroke; J. L Fonda, No. 8; g. b.
Penrose, No. 2; j. III. Henderson, bow; Frank

The President Of the Sanitary Ex-

gIaly. yH :,ti H5UU. ~ 9'9T


At o'clock P. NJ. Saturday, Mr.. ]. Lang
lais, President of the Sanitary Excayating
Company, got into car No. 9, OF the Baronne,
and jackson Railroad line. with . package Of
money containing 1886. in currency and SIG
in check, which he had to pay off the hands
working under him. 8 .s
Corner Of Rousseau and jackson streets
Mr.. Langlais got out of the car, he, went to
his residence, and in short time remembered
OF leaving the package behind him; he then
went to the car station to inquire if the
money was found; he was told il was not; he
then proceeded on his way when he met .
lady, whom he recognized as having been in
the same car with himself He approached
her and inquired if she had seen any one take
the package from the car.
She told him that when he left the car the
driver picked up the package She told the
driver that it belonged to the gentleman who
had Just got out Of the Car. The driver re-
piled that he knew it did, and intended to re-
turn it to the owner. Receiving this informa-
ton, Mr.. Langlais proceeded to the Central
Police Station and laid the case before Capt
Malone, who placed the matter in the hands
of Special Officer Geo. L. Cain, who imme-
diately went in search Of the driver of the
car and arrested him at the terminus OF the
road, at the foot OF Jackson street
The driver desied having taken the money,
but when carried to the Central Station
SIS in five dollar bills was found on his per-
son for which he could give no account He
gave his name as Patrick Ahern.

QUALIFICATIONS FOB A PUBLIC
OFFICER.

We find in st. Louis journal letter writ
manner in which that eminent statesmen car
ried on the business of the Executive off 80.
The republic was then small in occupied area
as we'll as in population, which numbered at
that date about 5, 700, 900. Three years before
that the decimal enumeration of the twenty
States gave total of 5, 30S 4S3. The business
of the government was far less complicated
than now, but government employees were
fsw and inexperienced, the treasury was ILL
supplied, the sturdy patriots refused to con-
tract public debts not absolutely necessary,
and the problem of running the government
in Q manner satisfactory to an exacting and
vigilant people was one of no easy solution
For the welfare of the young republic, for the
crafty the high moral sense by which all his
public action was guided, he, like his prede-
cessors, took unlimited pains to find the bes.
and worthiest Of men for the positions which
he had to fill, aiming chiefly toward obtaining
men who were "honest and capable, and
who would be faithful to the Constitution.
If, after the lapse of three-quarters of .
century, jefferson could revisit the land which
he SO devotedly loved and SO well and wisely
served, he might first consider with wonder
and delight the proportions to which his
country had grown; but when he came to look
into the workings of the government, to see
the enormous prevalence of the bad spirit OF
gain as exhibited by incumbents of offices, to
hear Of the stupendous combinations of poll
ticians, capitalists, spectators and bankers
to cheat the government on one hand and
the people on the other, to learn how often
and on what frivolous pretexts his adored
constitution had been violated and set at
naueht, to hear that the debt of the Federal
Government had swollen to twenty-three
hundred millions of dollars, that the debt OF
the States made up another aggregate as large
or larger, to learn that in order to pay the IN
terest on these public debts the wealth and
produce of the country to the amount OF
hundred millions year were sent to Europe,
| if he could see and hear all this he would DC
stricken with sorrow, amazement and disgust.
The letter 10 addressed to Col Ephraim
Kirby. We present it as an instructive Gu
riosity:

SPFCULATING on MISERY.
The Last Straw ON the Camel's
~ @ Back. it }a

Some three hundred and odd wozkingu6en
are most anxious to know if Capt. Francis
Boimare is the accredited agent OF Capt. Eada
I. Il seems that some three weeks since, the
first named gentleman opened Al Office at Jake
Hsberlan's grocery store, corner of ST. Philip
and Dorgenois streets, with the ostensible OBJ
ject Of employing laborers to 60 to the passee.
Upon promise to Haberlan of giving him
a foremanship that party readily loaned his
grog shop as labor bureau, while young
man, one Walter Gourgnes. consented to fill
the position Of enrolling clerk, he having in
view as his share in the enterprise similar
position.
Capt. Boimare succeeded in enrolling some
hundreds of poor unfortunates, these parties
as per agreement having to pay ten or fifteen
cents apiece to the clerk for stationary and q
much larger .bonus to the s'boss" for tho
privilege Of having prominence in the seiec-
ton of hands. mi
Everything worked we'll until some few
days ago, when the following notice appeared
literally placarded about the Second District
Of the city:
JETrIES MEN ATTENTION.
A special meeting OF all the men on the roll Of
Capt Francis Boimare il called for on Thursday,
July l, 1875, at 6 PM. 1t the Crystal Palace,
corner Charities and Cont streets. Important
business will be transacted and Instructions re-
ceiTed. s9a aE fs
Prompt to the call the crowd assembled,
while the clerk, Gourgnes, SHORTLY after the
hour appointed put in an appearance. No
one, however, was on hand, and the elm
portant business and instructions were
in consequence deferred. much to the peril
of the clerks life, however. He like the others
was apparently amongst those duped, but the
crowd could not see it, and but tor timely
aid Gourgnes' life would not have been worth
much.
The suspicious Of the crowd having be-
come aroused. a communication was ad-
dressed to the New Qrleans Bee, asking infor-
nation as to Capt Bomare and his mission.
The matter was referred to the Chief of Pc
lice. That gentleman detailed Special Pecors
to work it up. Last evening Pecora succeeded
in finding Bomare, who gave as guarantee
johnson Armstrong, Esq, that gentleman he
stated having authorized him TO open the
bureau.
Mr.. Armstrong could not be found Lass
evening by the special officer, but on inquire
ing from Mr.. Adams. President of the Relief
Association, he ascertained that Mr.. ARM
strong was not empowered to authorize any
enrolling of laborers ia such numbers, as in
the first place Capt Eads had. no doubt, ~
many hands as at the present time he needed,
and secondly, as the proprietor of the jetties
had an Office in the city, he preferred to en-
pl0y his men personally.
These are the facts as given. Evidently an
old dodge has been practiced upon the un-
suspecting workingmen, and while Capt.
Boimare has not as yet been called person
ally to account for his doings, he is much
better off in q pecuniary sense than he was
before tho venture H.

Ano her extract from same.
And what the Congress but brawling mob,
A banded ring to speculate and job;
Open to bribery, counting an advance
Coquettishly, its favors to enhance,
Like practiced couTtesans lawless league
For plumber by connivance and intrigue;
Wide-mouthed with fulsome can't OF brotherhood
And equal rights for every race and blood,
While given to drunkenness and beastly lust
And trr mpling constitutions in the dust,
And welding IN the sacred name of law,
The vilest despotism the word e'er saw.
Oh, topmost shame and wonder of the times!
All language fails to indicate your crimes!
The boasted Capitol, whose lofty dome
Vies with the splendor Of the ancient Rome,
Whose marble floors and gilded walls should be
The home OF craftsmanship and purity,
Reels with the load Of ignorance and sin,
Stinks with the utter rottenness within.
No more brigand's gifted sons adorn
Its stored halls, % in the nations morn;
No more Calhoun's prophetic voice explains,
The Constitution and il rule sustains
Where Ames and Pinckney, Clay and Webster
spoke,
Are heard the senseless quackings of Drake;
Morton, diseased in body and in mind,
Emits his poison to pollute his kind;
Butler, the beast, all decency deies,
tHis british heart more crooked than his eyes,
And Sumner, iubecile for aught but evil.
Now plays the Puritan and now the devil.
