sHERRY's NEW YORK COMPANY.
Last evening, Sherry, with his New York
Theatre Company, appeared at our Opera
House, for the first time this season. The
performance was excellent in every respect,
and deserved better audience than wit
messed it. The entire company is first-class
IN every respect, and the small audience
which assembled to see it last evening, were
more than gratifed, and it is to be hoped
that good attendance will be present this
evening. We regret that limited space will
not allow us to speak now at length of the
most successful rendition of John Brougk-
ANS comedy drama, the Red Light, but we
advise all friends of the drama TO 20 this
e e7ening.

Mr.. Frock thought that Messrs. Bartlett

firm would put the heater in through Mr..

The matter excited considerable discus

committee, with instructions to have the
heater put in by Mr., f. Robinson, if he

ECONOMY.

Perhaps it may seem monotonous reite.
ration to repeat some of the pledges OF
economy and reform that the present
members of the city government made
during the last campaign. No doubt they
gained many votes, among those who be-
ieved in them. No doubt they were sin
cere, at that time at any rate. No doubt
the Council endeavors to carry them to
fulillment, but the result is generally
accepted as proof of intention. One of
the charges against the preceding govern
ment was the great expense of the office of
the City Attorney, and the advent of the
present incumbent was hailed as guar
antee of certain contrast; that now eff
cheney was to be combined with economy.
1t was realization of one of the pledges
and no mistake about it.
The city charter in creating an adviser
to the city, learned in the law, prescribed
his duties and allowed the Council to give
him salary not exceeding $4,000. 1t al
lowed him no extra fees nor assistance
unless by vote of majority of the
Council. This does not amount to a pro-
hibition. The action of majority of the
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-04-09

Council is to regulate his salary, fees
assistants and clerks under any circum
stances, and whatever they chose to give BY
such a vote would be legal If they reached
the limit of salary they might double OF
treble it by giving "extra compensation.
1t is left entirely within their discretion,
the Legislature only intimating in very
precise language what it considers sui:
ficient, and allowing the Council to disre.
gard it if it so chooses. So the economical
gaiter will pinch the Council if anybody.
1t seems the Council does exercise its
privilege of being more extravagant than
the Legislature. The following appears in
the report of the proceedings of Tuesday:
BY Mr.. Brown, and adopted:
An ordinance to provide for one clerk for
the City Attorney.
That Is, $1,000. The law authorizes a
clerk, but would it not be economy to do
without?
To impose certain special duties on the
Assistant City Attorney, and fixing his com.
pensatiOn for the same.
That is, five per cent more on all taxes
collected.
An ordinance to appropriate and pay at
toroey's fees.
Be it ordained by the Common Council
of the city of New Orleans, That the sum
of $3.50 be appropriated for attorneys fees
for services rendered in connection with the
business of the City Attorneys office.
BE it further ordained, ETC., That the Ad-
ministratOr of Public Accounts, upon appli-
cation of the City Attorney, shall warrant
in his favor on the Administrator Of Finance
in payment of said appropriation.
That is all in addition to the salary
That Mr.. Jonas services and his assist
ants are or will be worth this or double
this sum is not questioned. Their value
and his ability were the arguments the
Council considered in making these APP
preparations. But this government took
office at crisis and under peculiar cir
cumstances. They did not desire it for
its own sake, but only that by preventing
bad or extravagant men from holding
office to do good to their fellow-citizens.
They sacrificed their personal prosperity,
so to speak, on the financial altar of this
impoverished, but always beloved city

Sc to pay.

tain the federal government in suppress.
ing disturbance in some other quarter.
The Union is in one respect like team
OF horses. If all grow FESTIVE at once il
would be impossible to control them. By
restraining the violence of one at time,
the weight, 1rce and training of all the
rest may be relied on.
The result of all disturbance in the
Union has been, thus far, suppression.
The vast values and the disputed princi-
pies involved in the civil sectional wal
made this, it is to be hoped, the most
signal example of the power Of the
physical majority to compel the adoption
OF such construction as it chose to put
upon the meaning of common compact
1t will, therefore, be proper for all who
may have relied upon local resistance to
law, or upon the combined Intervention
OF others actually or theoretically inter-
ested in the same ISSUE to accept the doc
trine established in the two leading cases
stated. There can be no doubt that if
the resistance to law in Pennsylvania
should justify the government of that
State in calling upon the President to fur
nish military force to suppress domestic
disturbance, that he would do so, if he
had to call for levy en- masse Of all
the militia in the Union. It is not
because Louisiana is feeble State.
or Republican State, that the laws
have been enforced upon the call of her
acting authorities. 1t is because obedience
to law is the cement of the federal struc-
ture. Either indulgence or dread manifest
ed toward any community resisting the law
would dissolve the authority of the gov
eminent and it must fall in ruins. In the
event the people of any State, however
powerful, too impatient to await the rem
edy OF her complaints through the regular
forms of the constitution, should resist
the laws of that State, the very existence
IF the federal government would require
hat all the people of the United States
should command and enforce the peace
Until the political or judicial tribunals
hould decide the questions in contro-
'ersy.
We shall look with attention upon the
Increment of law in this Pennsylvania
nsurrection, satisfied that it will preserve
be constitutional precedents of the gov
and will prove that no person or
of persons in the United
tates, whatever may be his own assertion
his own grievances, will be allowed to
