A Historical Society.

There is not in our whole country a city
and State fuller of interesting matter fol
the antiquarian than ours, but nowhere il
SO lite attention paid to such things as
here. In most of the cities of the North a
historical society exists, and rooms and
libraries are maintained for depositing rec.
ords and relics appertaining to their local
of the kind. Gayerre has done much in
compiling the history of Louisiana, embrac-
ing the record of the French and Spanish
domination and the American down to the
close of the last war with Great Britain
These large volumes attest the patience
and industry of our historian, but the field
IS wide one, and there is much to be done
by the writer who will take up the pen where
Gaverre laid 1t down. Other cities have
given warm support to those who have
kent I'D their historical record, but there
seems to be lamentable lack of this spirit
here, and our native population seem to be
the poorest students Of our local history.
Educated Northerners frequently astonish
our people with their familiarity with his
torical events which have ceased to be re
rnembered by our Oldest inhabitants. A
dozen private libraries in the North and
West contain works on the early history OF
Louisiana. which can not be found within
our borders. st. Louis is far ahead of US
in this respect, though when the first print
ing press was located at that point ten
newspapers were published regularly in
New Orleans, eight in English and French
and two in Spanish.
Can not an interest be awakened in these
matters in our city, Are there none who
will organize a historical society here, or
lay the foundation tor cabinet of histor
ical relics, 1t Is believed that if such
movement were inaugurated the City Coun-
Gil will set apart room in the City Hall for
its uses. Many persons in the city have
books, papers, portraits and relics in their
which they would gladly con
tribute to such an enterprise, If convinced
that it would be made success.

One ful,-blown in a white embroidered
skirt. with plated waist, looked like a
Venetian woman of the Renaissance. Above
the divine softness of the satin you saw her
curved and pearly neck, and on the blonde
tress of her abundant hair a simple band
of floating lace. She seemed tall and
straight as Diana in the long folds of her
native dress; her bodice. ornamented with
silver embroidery, delicately suggested the
thought of dashy hussar. She walked
rapidly, and her dragging train trembled
like the drapery Of goddess, while the
bouquets Of briliiants in her hair flashed
like sword blades. Another|-ail, slight,
the face projecting, with thin nose, trem-
bling lips, pale eyes, and hair all in disorder
beneath her diamonds, seemed TO emit
flashes and sparks from every part of her
person. Seated or standing, she never
seemed to touch the ground. The inward
mettle, the irrepressible outbursts and coz
tortions of her nervous organization. sent
momentary shivers through her nervous
frame. About this slight neck ripples a
row of diamonds-a circle of living eyes,
pale as the flaming eyes of magic serpents
These women chat and seem delighted with
their conversation. What would you give
to hear what they are sayingl Go near,
and you will find out that they are disouss-
ing umbrella handles-one prefers ebony.
and the other mother of-pearl.

He stated there was an effort to avoid the
commands OF the board by introducing tho
latter text book, and desired to have the
matter fixed so that no more "Interme-
diate" books could De introduced
Mr.. Tracy showed that the power of Sc
leoting the text books for the term OF two
yeaIs had come to the board By regular
succession, and was not affected by the
law of 1874. He considered the Iaterme-
diate text books had been properly author

The resolution was amended 80 that the

cheapest it could be obtained at If the

Ohio river fell. The advantage Mr.. Maclin
offered was the free use of his yard
Messrs. Carey and Stamps desired pro

English Aboiitionists and the Cuban Ques-
ton.
LONDON, June "A deputation from the
Anti Slavery Society, comprising Sir r.
Basley, 7. Taylor, COrbett, Pease, Kinnaird
and Evelyn Ashley, all members of Parlia-
ment,. yesterday evening presented me
mortal to Lord Derby urging on the govern
ment the duty Of taking decisive steps by
way of friendly mediation to bring about
an equitable termination of the war in
Cuba and the abolition of the slave trade.
Mr.. Ashley said as the United States had
relinquished the idea of annexing Cuba, its
good offices might be relied on to support
this movement. Others of the delegation
called attention to the atrocities IN the
coolie traffic.
Lord Derby replied that the government
had no right to interfere in the coolie ques-
ton. An assertion made bv the memorial
sts that the Cuban war was fast culmi-
mating in favor of the insurgents was at
least premature. He did not think Spain
would view any proposal of mediation
favorably. She would doubtless answer:
"We must first finish the Carlists;
then we shall have all our forces
disposable for finishing the war in Cuba"
At the same time, continued Lord Derby.
the British government would be very glad
to avail itself of any prospect that was

state of things in Cuba. The emancipation
OF slaves would no doubt sooner or later be
accomplished. Slave owners are aware of
this, and are only fighting for continuance
of the present system. He believed
that emancipation could not be accom-
plished by itself, but must form part of
a complete scheme for the pacifcation of
the island. The present time, therefore,
was not favorable for English interference.
He believed the United States had no desire
to annex Cuba, but at the same time the
American government and people would
receive any attempt of England to inter
fere between Spain and Cuba with con-
siderable suspicion, and be apt to put
wrong construction upon it.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 2.vThe storm last
night extended over large area of coun.
try. Nearly all the railroads centering here
suffered more or less in loss of bridges and
culverts. On the Indianapolis, Peru and
Chicago railroad three small bridges were
washed away. On the Indianapolis, Gin
cinnati and Lafayette roads the bridges at
louisville and Acton are gone. The acci-
dent on the Beircfontane road was caused
by the washing away of a culvert near
Fortvills. Engineer Alonzo Rose and Fire
man Ed. Bowen were instantly killed
The country in the vicinity of Fort
Vile is inundated. A dispatch from
Cambridge says the steady rains of last
night and this morning have been very
damaging to crops and property through
out White Water valley. Al this point the
west fork of White river has overflowed it's
banks, flooding fields in it's course and
washing away tracks and fences at the
race ground. Poison creek, small thread
of stream, was swollen to a rushing tor
