HOW 1T WORKS.
New ORLEANS, Jan. II, 1875.

New ORLEANS, Jan. II, 1875.
Editors Of the Bulletin:
I submit the following facts as practical
illustration Of the material injury which we
the people of this State are suffering from in
consequence Of the military interference in
our Legislature, and thus destroying all con-
fidence with business men abroad in the
safety of any investment in business in this
city or State at present.
A gentleman of means in New York re-
quested me to arrange co-partnership with
him and gentleman in this city to transact
certain business here where machinery would
be required, my New York friend proposing
to furnish all the capital necessary to transact
the business, and to come here himself to
assist the New Orleans gentleman in the man
agement Of the business.
The parties agreed upon the terms. when
the military, under the orders of Kellogg,
broke up our Legislature thereupon my New
York friend. under such disordered state Of
affairs, declined to proceed with the proposed
business, not feeling that it was safe to do so.
II the business had been entered into and
successfully continued, which could have
been done with plenty of capital, number of
men would have found EMPLOYMENT in the
CITY, and a much larger number in the inte
rior Of the State, BY which they, black or
white, could have made . good and honest
living, perhaps more, and some of our COM
missions merchants would have had a share
in the profits of the business.
You. Messrs. Editors, can make your own
upon the above facts.
am yours, very respectfully,

TERREBONNE PARISH SPEAKS.
No Compromise.

Terrebonne parish is the first to take the
move; but her example will no doubt be emu
lated, and al the Democratic members Of the
House receive instructions suchas Terrebonne
has given to her Representatives.
The following is copy Of the minutes Of
. meeting held at the town Of Houma, on the
18th inst:
HorMA, La, Jan. 13, 1875.
At . meeting Of the Executive Committee
Of the Peoples party, Of the parish Of Terre-
bonnie, the following resolutions we're unani-
mously adopted:
RESOLVED, That the people of the parish Of
Terrebonne do most earnestly call upon the
various members of the Legislature to alb
stain from any utilization with the illegal and
evolutionary body at the st. Louis Hotel
Resolved That any utilization or intercourse
with the body supported by the bayonets of
the United States army on the part Of tho
representatives of the people will be worse
than an unconditional surrender, and poor
response to the virtuous indignation now
raised in every hamlet in the North.

A WORD OF CAUTION.

1t is with feeling of deep sorrow, coupled
with hesitancy, that we are constrained to
advise and caution our Bohemian friends, the
players against member of our fraternity.
Some eleven months ago, ''a youth to fortune
and to fame unknown, having as his sole
capital stock in trade the butt Of a lead pen
Gil and an exceedingly prepossessing appear
ance, became member OF that powerful
lever, the press.
Having the maxim, '.Perseuerentia
omnes vinci" as his guiding star, this
youth wandered through the mazes of police
, court reporting until, by subtle perception Of
the divine and beautiful, he became meta
morphosed into the maker and undoer Of the
people of the mimic world-a dramatic critic.
Alas for human ambition; this noble
youth was but another victim to the fell de-
stroyer- popular favor. Suddenly ex-
allied to position wherein the power
was given him to make or mar great
artists, and being nobly endowed
with natures best gifts-a handsome physique
and pleasing conversational powers-can it
NC WOAueIcu IlIdt OuI SuSCcptlUlo youtA CouAu
not Withstand the attractions and persuasive
arts of queens, leading ladies, soubrettes and
chambermaids? 1t is with profound melan-
choly and regret that we have to chronicle
that such was his lamentable fate. Of tall
and commanding person, with pedal ex-
tremities formed to glide gracefully in
the promenade or trip Enthusiastically
in the May dance, our hero became at once
the constant and particular attendant of one
Of our most facinating actresses. Allix now
changed; instead of undeviatingly following
the rugged path of independence, our youth,
with frenzy in his eye and on loves mission
bent, followed in the wake of this syren.
Need we add that this cratic course soon
proved as fatal as did the song of the syrens
of yore to the mariners of Ulysses. Now,
with an expressionless countenance
and profoundly melancholy air, our once
brilliant and promising friend meanders
aimlessly around theaters, particularly the
Academy of Music. So handsome is his
presence and SO insinuating his address that
it is our painful duty to caution actresses to
be on their guard. His remarkably small
feet will serve as sure guide by which this
quondam critic can be recognized.

ed report in which it was suggested that the
St. Andrew and Keller schools be consolidated
in order to reduce the number of teachers.

schools is concerned, the reduction in the
number of teachers, however, being reserved
for after consideration.

applicants for promotion to the High Schools,
was put at seventy-fve per cent. instead OF
sixty-fve as heretofore. Those who fall below
the standard will be given second trial i'm
mediately.

Diet wanted action postponed.
On motion Of Mr.. Tracy the resolution was
tabled.
Some one wanted to change ''readers."
Shaw opposed it. A resolution was, however,
introduced by Tracy that the most approved
readers be purchased, and accordingly it
passed.

pills who fail to pass an examination be afford
ed another hearing, was adopted.

GALVESTON, Jan. ia Galveston Neus
special from Austin to-day, says: Senator
Edward Hobby introduced joint resolution
condemning the interference with, and the
destruction Of the State Government of Lou
isiana by the present Federal Administration:
Whereas, it is the right and duty Of the
States, on appropriate occasions, to give ex-
preston to their sentiments on all questions
seriously affecting the integrity Of the Union

lican form of government in the United
States.

alton of the spirited indignation expressed by
the advocates of freedom and constitutional
government throughout the nation, ire

Of tho Union and the honor and rights Of the
States, and joins in the national protest

g. That to our sister State, in this her hour
Of oppression and wrongful affection, We ex-
tend the deepest sympathy and our firm as
surance that the American people will crown
the present usurpers of the powers of the

threatened to the entire nation.
Further consideration of the resolution

the OPERA HOUSE CLOSED.

The friends of Mr.. Placide Canonge will
be sorry to learn that the great depression in
business, consequent upon the unsettled
state Of asairs in the city, has compelled him
to close the doors of the Opera House. This
was done last night, but it will be
reassuring to the patrons of the
opera to know that there is prospect
Of its being continued, as Mr.. Canonge
proposes turning over to the artists the
house for the balance of the season and sup-
gests that they continue as An operate COM
pany. 1t is possible that arrangements to
that end will be made and that the company
will elect Mr.. Canonge as manager.

some KIM Oh UNDERSTANDING tnNt LAAD IoSVAu~
ton was to be made in Louisiana for the pur-
pose of overturning the Legislature of the State.
He did not say the understanding was among
the Democrats of the Senate, but it was some
where. He defended the action OF Kellogg in
calling upon the military, and said had the
Democrats been in power and the Republicans
had tried to overthrow them as the Democrats
tried to overthrow the Republican government
in New Orleans, the Democrats would have
acted just as Kellogg did
The Democratic party had frequently In
dorsed the use of the military force. Gen.
jackson, when in same city of New Orleans,
arrested and imprisoned Judge Hall for issu-
ing writ of habeas corpus. A few years after
of the United States In 1854 there was
runaway slave in Boston, and Franklin Pierce,
a Democratic President, ordered the use Of
troops from the navy yard and Fort Inde-
pendence TO arrest this fugitive slave.
When the Republican party used the army
to enforce law, the same Democrats hOwled
as il a set of pirates were about to fire their
houses. In 1885, in Kansas, in the town OF
Topeka, q Free State Legislature met. Frank
lin Pierce, Democratic President, issued his
proclamation commanding that body to dis
perse, and Jefferson Davis, then Secre-
tary of War, issued an order placing
the United States Army in Kansas under
command of the Governor Of that State.
Colonel Sumner-afterward . General, and
killed in battle-did dispense that Legisla-
ture. That act was Endorsed by the Demo-
cratic party all over the country, but that
same party to-day denounced Republicans
because Kellogg, without the order of the
President, used the army to put ont men
who were not members Of the Legislature.
Mr. Logan then read from an order of Gen.

1t has been noticed that several ships laden
with English coal, and bound to Pacific ports,
have lately been burned at sea- This remark
3, sble fatality having attracted attention, it is
discovered that the cargoes were of Lancashire
coal. and that the fires were spontaneously
generated. 1t is thought that an unusual
quantity Of sulphur is present in the strata of
coal from which the latest cargoes were taken.
One intelligent shipmaster lately arriving 1t
San Francisco from Liverpool reports that he
only succeeded in avoiding fire in the hold
Of his vessel by paying strict attention to ven
tilatiOn. The ships boats, ready fo- long
cruise, were always prepared for immediate
use. As there are usually one or two ships
loaded with coal daily sailing from English
for Pacific ports, the anxiety Of ship-owners
may be imagined. This is new danger of
the seas, and it is likely to stimulate inquiry
as to the alleged richness of the coal fields of
China, and the prospect of their being made
serviceable.

OF Governor Bradley's administrator
the Legislature experienced paroxvsm
OF nnanclal rage. on account Of the Gov

tive funds. This bill was a1i inionitons
measure, which diverted not only the
coin IN the treasury. but the anticipated
revenues OF the State, to the exclusion
OF any appropriation for the paytilert Of
the accrued interest on the State debt.
The end of the session was approaching.
and the threat was freely INDUCED in. a.
a measure of retaliation, that the general
appropriation bill would be defeated. and
an extra session thereby made necessary.
1t came to the ears of Governor Bradley.
