-. The steamer Josephine, from the Up
per Coast, reached the city Tuesday evening
with rs sacks of new corn, home production.
Score one.
=. The steamer Belle Rowland arrived at
her wharf Wednesday morning, bringing to
the city 760 bales cotton from Red River.
This is the largest cargo of cotton brought to
the city this season from that section of
country.
-. "A festive youth, who has been for some
time past cutting big figure in society
circles of the Sixth District, received a sound
threshing on Tuesday from friend of lady
of whom he had spoken in rather familiar
and disrespectful terms.
-. "A drunken woman, one Of the fallen,
while on her way to the First Precinct Sta
ton, in charge Of police officer yester-
day, waved her hand in jovial and familiar
way to white car of the st. Charles street
line, and every gentleman in the car looked
surprised and guilty.
=. 1t is reported that the City Railroad
Company will petition the City Council for
leave to change their track from Dauphine and
Burgundy streets to others, as they can not
accommodate any lady passengers at present
on account of the insults offered them by the
lewd and abandoned women living on these
thoroughfsres.
-. The wharf between Bienville and
Cont streets, which has for some time past
been IN very bad order, is now receiving the
proper attention from the city authorities.
This is as it should be, but we suggest that
some sort of protection should be made
against accidents whilst the repairs are being
made. The sides of the wharf are protected,
but the side fronting the river is left I'M
guarded Tuesday night this omission caused
what might have been serious accident.
The steamer Iberia from the Lower Coast
landed at this wharf, and as the passengers
we're coming off the boat one gentleman, not
knowing of the repairs, walked through the
hole and fell to the ground underneath. For
tunately no injury resulted, but we trust some
little extra care will be taken hereafter to
avoid such accidents.
-. "A day or two ago the bees that occu-
pied particular hive-because there are
other hives therein the yard of a certain
man who resides in the vicinity of Magazine
and Girod streets, "swarmed. And these
bees that "swarmed" settled, with the queen
bee, in q particular barrel-because there are
other barrels therein the yard of a Mr.. Sui
Ivan, whose said yard is at the corner of
Girod and Magazine streets. The man who
owned the hive from which the bees swarmed
called on the Mr.. Sullivan mentioned, for the
bees, and Mr.. Sullivan gave him permission
to take them provided he did SO without talk
ing or ipjuring the barrel in which the bees,
with the queen bee had located themselves.
The man who owned the hive, not being able
to get his bees without getting the barrel of
Mr.. Sullivan, instituted suit in the First
Justices Court for the recovery of his buzz
zing honey makers. Judge Houston, who
presides over this court, decided the bees be-
longed to the man who owned the hive, but
said nothing about the barrel of Mr. Sullivan.
Since the decision of the Judge the whole
constabulary force of the court have been en-
gagged, in vain effort to cause those bees
to leave the barrel of Mr.. Sullivan, and swarm
back into the hive of "the man who owned
the hive" and who instituted the suit.
