=. Quite large crowd Of ladies and gen.
tlemen enjoy the evening breezes on the
ferryboats plying the river.
The Governor yesterday appointed v.
A. Ryan member of the Police Board, vice Z.
V. LeClerc, resigned.
Through the honesty of Abraham OH
viera, valuable COLA xatch and chain lost
by one Of the gentlemsns sonnected with the
BULLETIN, was restored 10 it, owner.
The Mrs Mary Harrison, who was ar
rested by Mr.. M. L. Byrne as kleptomaniac,
is resident Of Natchez, and was only on q
short visit to our city.
-. Judge Staes, of the Second Municipal
Police Court, leaves the city for . short rest
ing spell next week. During his absence
Judge Arthur Gastinel will act in his place.

Cheerful occupation.
=. Postmaster j. NJ. G. Parker has paid
the very handsomest compliment to Gen.
Grants "third term letter" we have yet
heard. at sounds" he said, with mimi
table grace and impressive eloquence, "just
Is if had dictated it MYSELF"
-. Another rabid dog was killed yesterday.
Timid people and q good many people who
are not timid, are now carrying heavy canes
and revolvers and cross the street to avoid q
suspicious looking cur. There is some curl
osity to know when the city is going to fur
nish poison sausages to the police to be used
in putting out of the way some of the vaga-
bond purps that infest our streets.
-. The complaints about the postal money
order clerk at the Post Office continue, and
Postmaster Parker is amusing himself writing
letters "open" and otherwise about it, instead
of correcting the trouble. At the instance of
Q number of merchants and the representa-
ives of merchants we made the complaint
and are prepared to substantiate it. Mr..
Parker will have to excuse us from sending
round list of "names, residences" etc. If
he or his representative will call at the Bull
1ErN Office the necessary information will be
forthcoming. But perhaps Mr.. Parker pre-
fers to write letters. If so, why not?
-. "A case where doctors disagreed with
rather funny results is talked of at the police
station. A man named Chandler was, a
short time ago, arraigned before Judge Evans
on the charge of insult and abuse, and the
Judge required him to furnish bonds to keep
the peace for thirty days. Failing to furnish
the bond, Chandler was committed to the
Parish Prison for the allotted time. While he
was in prison, some days after his commit
ment, DR.. Schumacher, in making his rounds,
came across him, pronounced him insane,
and sent him to the Insane Asylum. Dr..
Cooper, several days after, saw Chandler, de-
clared that she was not mad" that, if he
had been, he had recovered, and discharged
him, and Chandler again breathed the air of
freedom five days before his sentence had
expired.

800. The Bee commends Capt Loan, the
newly appointed Superintendent Of Metropol-
titan Police, for activity, frmness, earnestness
and vigilance. He is praised for watching
over the health and peace of the city; for hav-
ing taken his duty to heart. and. although
but for few days in chief command, for hav-
ing conducted it in an effective manner, show
ing that he knows how to secure obedience.
For our part we make due allow vance for the
zeal of newly installed officials on the pro-
verbal theory that new brooms sweep clean.
We know what the metropolitan police has
been, and if any great improvement occurs
(for which there is ample room), iAwill afford
rs pleasure to note and commend it.
