tons of the spreading and deepening Of this
sentiment of restored amity are coming in
from all quarters. Here in Boston, do not
happen to know . single voice at Variance
with it; and that it is shared by yourselves,
gentlemen Of the South, is evidenced by your
presence here tonight You may have de-
sired the issue Of the war to have been other
than it is, and may have felt, for time, that
al WAS lost save honor. respect your con-
victions; but I believe You are wise enough,
and magnanimous enough, to acquiesce 10y
ally now, and in the end cheerfully, IN the
azbitrament Of the God of battles
% you must be, that the overruling Provl-
dence is wiser than our wishes, and knows
how to bsstow richer benefits than those it
withholds- assured, too, that whatever was
right and good in the lost cause which you
loved, IL not finally lost and that Whatever
was false or wrong in the winning cause can
not permanently triumph. The Almighty
reigns and shapes results more benefcently
and more righteously than man can.

We are exceedingly gratifed to know that
the company formed in this city for the in
auguration Of the new and improved system
of manufacturing sugar = known as the
"Roberts' Diffusion. Process has succeeded
almost beyond the most sanguine hopes OF it,
projectors. The stock has all been sub
scribed by some Of our most enterprising and
substantial citizens. The organization of the
company was completed by the election Of
the following prominent gentlemen as off,
GERS and directors:
Otto Kratz, President; Thos. Tasker, Vice
President; A. T. Janin, Secretary; r. Sieg,
Treasurer.
Directors at Large-John. w. Labouisse,
Marcus Bringier, II. Schultz A. Mitchell,
Charles G. johnson.
The company have purchased that fine su-
gar estate, known as the Louisa Plantation,
situate eighteen miles above the city, on the
right bank of the river, and have engaged
already some six hundred acres of cane upon
which to commence operations this season.
They are now ready to make contracts for the
purchase of cane, deliverable at the Louisa
Plantation, or ct designated points on the
Mississippi River, or its navigable tributaries.
or on the cars of Morgan's Railroad, and the
Mobile and Texas Railroad.
The success which attended the very care
full and exhaustive tests made in the manu-
facture of sugar upon plantations in this
State by this process give every guarantee
that the First Central Diffusion Sugar Manu-
featuring Company" will rerolutionize both
the system of manufacturing sugar, and the
method of cultivsting cane. ya
We believe it will prove godsend to the
small planters, who will hereafter be enabled
to devote themselves to the raising of larger
areas of cane, free from any care or expense
in its subsequent manipulation, all Of which
will be assumed by the company. The great
economy of the new system. cannot but
recommend it to the attention of planters,
and we confidently expect to see this company
followed by others throughout the sugar
districts, to the great benefit of sugar grow
ers and of the State at large.
We regard the Inauguration of this enter
prise as q most suspicious omen, as fore
runner of other industrial projects, and it is
our pleasure as it is also our duty to render
every assistance and encouragement to what
ever may tend to build up the material pros.
perity of our much-abused. sadly mis-
governed, but fertile and beloved State.

THE JURISDICTION OF ooRoHERs

The question Of Jurisdiction is frequently
raised in reference to courts and the different
Law officers Of the State; but the late disa.
greement between our Coroners as to the
limits of their respective jurisdiction is rather
novel case. It il Of the utmost importance
that our city authorities should speedily take
some action looking to final decision of the
question. We have heard Of several instances
lately, wherebodies have lain waiting for the
Coroner until long after decomposition had
set in. ~
The result of such a state of affairs must
necessarily be Of most disagreeable charac-
ter. One body left long unburied may be
the cause of producing serious illness, if not
death, to q number of persons, who, through
no fault Of their own, but owing to legal
technically, are subjected to the danger OF
contracting some disease which may terminate
in their death. Cases have been reported
where, not being allie any longer to await the
settlement of the question Of jurisdiction by
the Coroners, bodies have been buried with
out the necessary certificate.
~ WAL tuuS Uo 1oduAiy DocA AUW AmPOAS"AAS
it is that our Coroners should have their
jurisdiction clearly defined. One reason, no
doubt why this question has not been before
raised, may be found in the fact that up to q
short time ago Ooroners were paid in fees, SO
much for each body viewed and inquest held;
then it was an object for them to hasten to
the place where they were informed some un-
fortunate had breathed his last But now,
that they are paid regular salaries, regardless
Of the labor performed. it is naturally more
an object with them to view only those lying
within thar pndoubted jurisdiction, and the
fewer times they are called upon, why SO
much the better. T w. ..v
It bshooves Us to do everything in our
power to promote the health of the city, and
to ascertain the character of any illness which
may spring up in our midst, in order to prop
erly protect ourselves from its suffsringe
Therefore, settle as quickly as you may, gen.
tleman, this jurisdiction question. Let our
Ooroners understand and they will, no
doubt perform their duties.

LABORERs WANTED.

"The great fear is that hands enough can
not be obtained to harvest the crops" says a
dispatch of June 20, from Kansas CITY, The
growth of wheat is enormous in Kansas and
large in other Western States. Millions Of
bushels Of wheat will be lost, as usual, for
the want Of harvesters to gather, thresh and
store it. ~
Yet, while wages ranging from two to four
dollars day, with subsistence, are freely
given for good hands for period of forty
days, with living wages for at least eight
months Of the entire year, there are whole
regiments Of men idling away their days in
each Of our large cities, dependent on chance
jobs of work or the assistance of friends
While labor is scarce and in demand in the
great grain fields Of the West, and while they
could make themselves comfortable by fair
amount Of wholesome work, the idle men in
cities where the labor market is overstocked
prefer lounging about the streets, or doing
almost mental Offices for such irregular and
uncertain pay as chance may offer.
The cost of reaching the harvest fields of
Illinois, Indiana. Missouri, iowa, or Wiscon-
sin, even from New Orleans, is not much. In
companies of five hundred or more their
transportation need not cost more than five
dollars each for a thousand miles, with ac-
commodations quite as good as those which
are given to troops Of the United States, in
their transit from post to post Many gal
liant Confederate soldier boy has made as long
. journey, for much of the distance on foot,
only for the sake Of spending few days at
home. ssC55I syisR as s3
The naturally industrious man is as in
genious in finding work as the naturally lazy
man is in finding excuses for idleness. One
gravitates towards work with centripetal per-
sistency, the other flies from it with centrifu-
gal volatility. To have something to do is
the joy and solace Of the one, but the sorrow
and afaiction of the other. One loves work
and finds that I" the labor we delight in ply
sizes pain" the other hates and shuns it as he
would pestilence. Chronic laziness satu-
rates the whole system, penetrating the bones
and the marrow Of the bones, unstringing
the nerves, relaxing the muscles, torpefying
the glands, impeding the circulation, and SO
arresting respiration as to make it literally
true Of some that they are "too lazy to
breathe"
To the mind laziness is quite as paralyzing
Is to the body. he who hates work of the
hands will equally hate work of the head.
The conscience Of the sluggsrd becomes q
drowsy monitor. Habitually disobeying the
primeval command, which makes labor the
first of duties, he learns soon to hold all duty
at naught and to pursue his own comfort at
the cost OF the labor Of others without the
slightest Of compunctious visitings." He
who wishes to enjoy without the labor of
getting i not lar removed from crime
