%. .Clnton's going Well Auditor leave
US alone in our troubles.
-. The negro gambling den known as the
St. Louis Saloon, on Canal street, near the
levee, should be attended to.
-. Nothing new regarding the Auditor-
ship. Gov. Kellogg stated yesterday that ne
had not decided.
The ladies are anxiously inquiring
about the whereabouts of Menus and his gal
liant knights, and they are yet hopeful that he
will not fail to pay his annual visit to the
Crescent City.
The night men of the Harbor Police
| were busily engaged in collecting drift wood
on the river Thursday morning. They say if
the Board will not give them money for
Christmas, they will make it any how.
Capt. Malone, it is said, has large
number Of photographs of thieves and bur-
glars outside of the Rogues' Gallery. 1t
seems to ds that they should be put with the
others, SO that the police might know them
all
According to the orders of Judge
Woods, no juryman appearing after the hour
of IL O'Clock in The United States Circuit
Court will receive pay for the day. 1t is
probable after this that members Of the jury
will be more prompt.
| L. Fl. Gardner, Esq, has been ap-
pointed member of the City School Board
by Superintendent Brown, and has accepted
the appointment
Superintendent Brown has also appointed
E. Heath, Esq, a member of the board, and
il was authoritatively stated that he too had
accepted.
i ... There can be no objection to the two
gentlemen who were appointed yesterday BY
State Superintendent Brown on the City
School Board, but their services on this
board, as it is now constituted, can be of little
use to the people, for they will be in help
less minority, and unable to exercise any con-
troll over the other members of the board, who
will act as unit in their nefarious schemes
for perpetrating outrages on our people.
We understand that one of the most
elegant and popular of our aristocratic social
clubs have issued invitations to a grand
soiree, to be given shortly at their splendid
new club house. The ladies of upper-tendom
are providing exquisite and costly toilets fol-
the occasion, and the favored gentlemen are
giving special attention to the brushing up Of
their best swallow tails, in anticipation of the
coming event.
=. The Col johnson who was robbed
yesterday, over Hawkins's saloon, at the pool
selling was not, as seems to have beer
imagined by some, Col. Geo. B. johnson, who
is connected with the First District Collector
Office, in this city. The Col Johnson, whose
money the bold thief got away WITH is the
Collector Of the parish Of jefferson, who viii
no doubt recover most of his money, as the
thief has been caught and identified. There
is unquestionably large gang of expert pick
pockets IN this city, and they are becoming
very bold in their operations. The police
should spot all suspicious individuals-al
such fine gentlemen as wear $500 watches
and massive chains, and who, though the.
"toil not, neither do they spin,' yet appea
fat and sleek, wearing fine raiment.
-. AT meeting Of the Thirteenth Ware
Democratic Club, held at the corner O
Tchoupitoulas and Valence streets, on tn
18th inst, the following gentlemen were de
clared the choice CT the meeting to represen
them at the Convention to be held in thi
city on the 5th January next: Judge E. I
Msrrick, Chas. F. Buck, and c. Fl. Allen
Esqs. ha
The Democrates of the Thirteenth Ware
have acted well and wisely in selecting mel
of such high character as their representa-
i tives. If delegates Of like standing ar
chosen from the other wards of the city, tn
Convention will be composed of men VIII
: will command the respect and confidence c
the whole State, and we can rest assured tina
their deliberations will not result in an.
; hasty, inconsiderate or impolitic action.
Quite little episode took place at th
Varieties Theater matinee on Wednesday
1 One lady was so affected by the troubles Q
the heroine of the play that she could no
restrain her tears but oh, horrors! she dis
: covered too late that she had left her poke
handkerchief at home; in her distress So
walked over to lady friend who was sitting
at a short distance from her, hoping she Nigh
havestwo handkerchiefs, but as it happene'
the lady had but one. The case, however
! was urgent, and the friend approaching tn
: fact, generously tore her elegant mouchoir il
half and divided with the distressed lady
e The benevolent act was witnessed by man
of the audience and suppressed murmur {
applause was heard on all sides, in recogni
! ton of the generous deed.
