A DELIGHTFUL ENTERTAINMENT.

The grand variety entertainment which
will take place at the Varieties Theater on
next Thursday evening gives promise Of
being one of the most enjoyable occasions Of
the kind that has ever taken place in the city.
The object for which the performance is
given is justly very popular one, and the
character of the entertainment, added to the
well-known ability Of those who take part,
gives assurance that everything will pass of
with eclat, and amply reward all who are SO
fortunate as to be present.
The musical portion Of the programme
alone is more than sufficient to amply COM
pensate guests for the small admission fee.
Our brilliant young townsman, Mr.. Marks
Kaiser, has already gained a widespread rep
utation as an artist of high order, and the
fact Of his having taken the first prize at the
Conservatory of Music in Paris is guarantee
of his superior musical attainments. Our
citizens naturally take great interest in his
success and are always pleased at every oppor-
tunity offered them to listen to his splendid
violin performances. He will on this occa-
sion perform one of his favorite selections.
In addition to Mr.. Kaiser. guests will be
entertained by that eminent artist, Mr. Lee
vain, who won SO much applause at the Opera
last season by his splendid flute solos. Mr..
Levain took the first prize at the Brussels
Conservatory of Music, and is universally
recognized as being possessed of great must
cal ability. The literary portion Of the pro-
gramme will be very attractive, and we doubt
not there will be crowded house on the &C.
casion.

Fatal Fight Between Police.
Cne Nan Shot and Morally
Wounded.
All About An Arrest.

Between and o'clock Tuesday afternoon
Q difficulty occurred at the corner of Ninth
and Tchoupitoulas streets, between Patrol
men q. E. Bertel and W. Simpson, both Of
the Sixth Precinct During the difficulty
Simpson was shot in the abdomen and left
side. The wounded man was taken to his
residence. No. 344 Fulton street, and attend
ed by DR.. Gaudet, who pronounced the
wound IN the abdomen mortal.
Bertel was arrested and lodged in the Sixth
Precinct Station, charged with shooting and
wounding with intent to kill. Bertel, during
the fight, received severe blow on the head
from police club in the hands of Simpson.
The origin of the difficulty was dispute as to
some arrest which both parties claimed to
have made High words we're used and blows
ensued, when both drew pistols, and conse-
quently the fatal result
Bertel app cared to be under the influence
OF liquor. His reputation as peaceable man
is everything but good. as he has upon several
previous occasions m ade quite free use of his
pistol; once in difficulty with one Gleason
he came near losing his life. Simpsons con-
ditiOn is critical From information received
it appears that the meu were quarreling about
who could make the best arrest, when they
began to pull each other around, which re-
suited in fight.
1t is not known who struck the first blow
Bertel says that Simpson knocked him down
in the gutter with his club. Several witnesses
state that Bertel fred four shots at Simpson,
and that when the latter fell in the gutter
Bertel walked up to him and shot him in the
abdomen.
The Sixth Justice of the Peace received
Simpsons dying statement, but at present it
is kept in secrecy.

HOME INDUSTRIAL SUGGESTION.

The following letter received by US offers a
suggestion which, if acted upon, might be
productive of great material benefit, not only
to our mechanics and laborers, but to the
different car companies of the city, and, in
deed, all persons who are in the habit of send
ing North or West for similar work. Every
effort should be made to bring about such q
condition of affairs rs would tend to the de-
velopment of any and all home enterprises,
and the consequent employment of all the
honest and industrious mechanics and labor
ers in her midst:
New ORLEANS, Sept. 2l, 1875.
Editor New Orleans Bulletin
have read several articles in your valuable
paper concerning mechanics and laborers,
their distress and their want of employment.
No one has yet pointed out a remedy for the
evil
Riding in our city, one can not help but
notice that all our cars were manufactured
out of this State Why are they not made
here? Certainly it is not for want of capital,
for it would not require large amount. Is
it because they can be built cheaper else
where?
Com. Morgan has all his cars and even
his wheelbarrows made in his shop in
Algiers, and if he could get them cheaper
in New York or any other place, he would do
so. Is it because it would not pay for one
company to have its shop? Why do they not
combine and have one to do the work of the
several companies
If our leading citizens and interested par
ties would not only look into this case and
great many other similar ones, but give them
their support, they would soon have no more
use for Louisiana Relief Committee"

GENERAL AGENT TO LOCAL LOUISIANA AGENT.

GENERAL Ae EMIT TO LOCAL LOUISIANA AGENT.
oTAUNToN, Va, July ~, 1875.
My Dear Sir-We are not accomplishing in
Louisiana the main object Of the trustees
You and have done the best we could in the
circumstances. We have kept up schools
under private auspices, and helped many to
get come education; but we have not been
able to strengthen permanent public school
system. We have nothing permanent to
show. To Louisiana we pay more and accom-
plish, for the future, less than in any other
State. This is the reason l can 60 no further
in this direction. / must wait till something
more promising for the failure presents itself.
However much in the way OF temporary
charity may have been accomplished, and
however many places may have been tempo
rarily benefited, we fail of our main object,
which is not charitable aid, but public prog
ress in education.
We must, therefore, abide by what I have
already said, and limit ourselves to contlibu-
tons in behalf of the New Orleans Normal
School and the Model School.
Yours, truly, B. SEARS, General Agent.
TO THE TRUSTEES AND TEACHERS OF THE ELE
MENTARY SCHOOLS AND NORMAL DEPART
MENTS IN RURAL LOUISIANA.
The local Louisiana agent bows with be-
coming Difference, yet not without profound
regret, to the restrictions now imposed upon
him; but he sincerely trusts that temporary
withdrawal of aid from the rural schools,
elementary and normal, heretofore sustained,
in part, by the munifcence Of Mr.. Peabody 3
General Board of Trustees and the liberal
and enlightened policy of their venerable and
distinguished general agent, will cause no
diminution of the respect and reverence with
which the memory Of the peerless George
Peabody is regarded by the people of this
State Touching the future existence OF those
schools and the opening of others for which
aid may have been expected, he also trusts
that their portals will not be closed upon the
hundreds and thousands of meritorious
children in this State, who need and are
pleading for the mama Of instruction; but
that, more earnestly than ever, will the citi-
zers of each community rally to their sup
port and encourage their teachers with ap-
proving smiles and generous contributions.
With grateful Acknowledgements to the en-
ightened people of louisiana for the conf
dence heretofore reposed in him, and sim
cere hope that their union in defense of the
liberty, honor and dignity of the State will
soon render the future of the commonwealth
SO propitious in every respect that, with the
sanction of Mr.. Peabodys trustees and gen.
eral agent, he may be enabled to resume his
labors in behalf of an equitable, efficient and
permanent system of popular education, the
undersigned is, respectfully and truly,
ROBERT M. LUsHER,
Agent for Louisiana of Peabody Education
Fund.

Official advices from the Rio Grande con-
tradict the statement that the military tele-
graph between Brownsville and Ringgold is
being continually cut. The line has been
working for two weeks without trouble of any
kind. It was twice cut near Brownsville
when building, but as it suffered to the same
extent in Northern Texas, no unusual difficult
ty is apprehended in maintaining the line on
the border.
