Before me, JOHN G. EUSTIS, a Notary Pub

Personally came and appeared the parties
whose names are hereunto subscribed, acting for
themselves and those whom they represent, as
corporators, and for such other persons as may
become associated with them by succession, pur-
chase, transfer, or subscription, who severally
declared, that availng themselves of the pro-
visions of the laws Of the State of Louisiana, re-

The fracas in Mississippi is. of course, girls,
to the outrage mill. The Cincinnati Gazstte
burns with Characteristic glow of pious
satisfaction. The Inter Ocean is ecstatic.
The Buffalo Express may tear its little passion
TO tatters. Let Morton rejoice and Logan fill
the air with resonant hanksgiving. To the
soul Of your live Radical there is nothing so
comforting as a dead darby. The scourged
farmers of Williamson county, Illinois; the
maltreated people of Crawford county, Indi-
ana; the beaten and manned women and
children of Pennsylvania mining districts,
ere nothing to the high priests of the peculiar
fauh professed by the promoters and seekers
Of disturbance at the South. The missionary
labors are foreign, not domestic. They are
moved only by the misery which may be seen
from afar. Their charity begins at distance
and is exhausted before it reaches home.

1t is believed in Atlanta that the appoint

mander-in-C Chief of the army of the Khedive,
will have the effect of attracting many more
Confederate officers to Egypt Many who
had no hope heretofore of obtaining an ap-
pointment from the Khedive, now hope to
secure IL through the influence of General
Johnston. A brave and gallant Confederate
officer, Gen. Tige Anderson, of Atlanta, has
made application. and it is said that numer-
GUS others will follow suit Immediately.
Per contra, the Savannah Ne,os SAYS Gen.
Johnston is at present absent in Virginia,

SPAIN.

MADRID, July 2O.-The Constituent
COrtez has by a vote of twenty-six agains.
seven rejected the amendment to the new
constitution in opposition to the principle
of religious liberty.
SANTANDER, July 20.-The recent de-
tentiOn Of Protestant books by customs
authorities is believed to be part Of cOer-
GIVE scheme to drive PrOtestants out Of
Spain. This plan, inspired by prominent
persons in Madrid, is being executed here
by the clergy and by the civil government,
who, by indictment, presume to inspect the
residences Of American EVANGELICAL minis
ters. The impression also prevails that the
Madrid government hopes to conciliate the
Papal NunciO and tOlerates this UndeThand
persecution while apparently pursuing a
liberal policy regarding public worship.
Military precautions are being taken in
the city Of Larges against a Republican
rising.
The Carlists claim that Gen. Darragaray
has reconcentrated the whole Carlist army
and entered the province Of Lerida, and
that the AlfOnists have retreated from Wit
tOria, province of Alvaia, with several Car
list divisions in pursuit.
An official dispatch is publis he'd in
TEMPS reporting that Gen. Darregaray is
wounded and has taken refuge in France,
near CanteretS.

AFIFTEEN-MILE FLUME.

In Nevada, a ffteen-mile flume has Just
been completed at a cost Of a qUaTler Of a
million dollars. Il is intended TO supply
several mills and mines owned by its pro-
pTietOTs with the timber and fuel they
need. These mills and mines consume
about 10000 cords Of wood per year, and
Is firewOOd costs from Sll to Sl2 per cord,
and timber from 50 TO S24 per 1000
feet, great saving is expect
ed. The hume commenced in
the TrUckec meadows, and IS quite a til
Umph in engineering. The method Of
construction has been simple and rapid.
At various points water could be turned
on, and as the boxes were laid others were
lOated through and the flume would float
the material for its own creation. The
greatest days work was a quarter
Of a mile. Four gangs Of 80 men
each have done the work. 1t has required
100000 feet Of lumber and 20 tons
of uaIis to build the tiume. The resevOirs
are models ofsOlidity. The upper one is
eco feet long, with ar average depth Of 10
feet; the other is l,1gO feet long, with
depth Of 10 feet. A ditch nearly two miles
long brings the water TO the first Reservoir,
whence il is conveyed three miles and a
quarter TO the dume by means Of a feeder,
which is a strong square box, well braced,
capable Of carrying $50 inches Of water. \
stream Of pure water large enough TO sup
ply Virginia City TUshes through this

900 acres, owned by the company which
built If, is mainly fir, yellow pine, and tam

100000 cords of firewood, and lO0,OOO,OO0

lree-plantiug theory significant.
