Mr.. JEAN BERTIN. who seems to glory in the
appelation Of Catsp .w and to take much credit to
himself for being the tool selected to execute IN un

length, in card to the public, endeavored to excuse
himself for he part he plays, and attempts to p.lm
himself off upon An unsuspecting public the Pres.

The excuse is too finsy and the attempt to make
any intel igent citizen believe that he is actuated in
this matter by any desire the int rests of
the public by regard for the sanctty of the law

DEATH OF GEN. PICKETT.

The telegraph brings the sad intelligence
Of the death Of that noble gentleman and
gallant soldier, Gen. George E. Pickett.
Well may Virginia be shrouded in mourning
at the loss of her valiant son; his deeds, dur
ing the late war, reflected the highest glory
on her name, whilst before and since his
course in civil life illustrated the highest type
of an old Virginia gentleman.
The splendid charge he made at Gettys-
burg, at the head of his division, fills most
glorious chapter in the history Of the Lost
Cause, which will ever be read with interest
and admiration by men of all nations who
admirebravery in its most exalted form.
The true people Of Louisiana heartily and
sincerely condole with those of Virginia in
their profound grief over the grave Of the gal

It is trite saying that the darkest hour 0

and if thisbe true, it may be that the welcome
light Of day must soon gladden. the hearts o
our long suffering people. From all parts o
the State We have cheering accounts of til,

staples have almost universally been cult

Of Louisiana will. therefore. emerge from the
slough Of dsspond and enter with renewed
courage and well-founded expectations OF
future success upon the road that leads to
afiuence through steady and well-directed
labor.
As the products of our fields come in the
market, the trade of New Orleans will awake
from its long paralysis, and the life blood of a
healthy monetary system will again flow
through every artery of the commercial body.
The freshly awakened interest of Northern
and Of European capitalists to the masnif-

soil, and the knowledge they have lately &C.
quired of the utter falsity of the pictures
drawn by inscriptions "outrage" romances

as to the hostility of our people to newcomers
and their "banditti" proclvities-not to speak
of the stupendous lies they have SO indus
triously scattered abroad as to the s.deadly"
nature of our climate-all these results Of the
thorough and truthful accounts Of the real
condition of the South, recently published to
the world by able and honest travellers of
Northern and European birth, will turn back
the tide of Immigration from the
grasshopper and Indian infested plains
and the inhospitable climate of the

MECHANICAL HUMBUGs,

That the Americans have displayed re
markable ingenuity in the construction o
machinery is fact which cannot be dis
puted, and the fame of Benz amin Franklin, o.
Fulton, Of Morse, and Of host of less dis
tinguished, though scarcely less useful inven
tors, is justly valued as one of the proudest
inheritances of the land of their birth. But
the best things in this world are liable to
| abuse, and the number Of so-called mechani-
cal inventions whereby the gullibility of many
people is yearly made to pay tribute to their
ignorant and generally dishonest authors, is
not fsttering commentary on the efficiency
Of our Wanted common school system Of
instruction.
In most cases these shallow pretenders
gravely assert that they have discovered some
new power, or at all events that they have
found the means Of producing increased me-
ohanical power by . new application Of prin-
ciples already known. In many cases the SELF
elected man of genius is person who has not
even studied the elements of physical sci
ence, and who fanoies that by some hocus-
pocus arrangement given continuance will
develop more power than is originally ap-
piled to it. To this class belong the builders
of perpetual motion machines, self-acting
hydraulic rams or siphons, and other fanciful
oontrivances whose utter impracticability and
absurdity have been proved Hundreds Of
years ago.
Their shrewder rivals are better posted,
and when they propose to sell for q valuable
consideration their wonderful discoveries in
art or science, they are simply plying their
avocation as profe ssional swindlers. 1t is
nevertheless, astound ding to notice how many
people who certainly ought to know better,
tans. As q journal devoted to the propaga
ton Of sound practical information on such
subjects appropriately remarks, there are too
many people who act on the principle of the
stock gambler who, after discovering that he
has invested his money in worthless article,
will, nevertheless, 60 on praisipg the particu-
lar elephant he has on hand in the hope of
finding an equally foolish purchaser. i
Imaginary gold and silver mines, railroads
Of which q single rail will never be laid, and
inventions that will revolutionize the world
and do tha work of Eve thousand horse |
power steam engine with few pounds of
coal and q gallon Of water, or propel railroad |
trains and ocean steamers by vaporizlng some
chemical preparation, are advertised every |
month by Iberal-minded individuals who are
ready to part with their wonderful inventions
for a few thousand dollars, or to share the |
profit thereof with partner green enough to
supply the required funds to set things in
motion. The Kelley motor, of which we
have heard SO much of late, is undoubtedly
one of those fraudulent devices to " raise. the
Wind, against which all the scientific jour-
nals Of any weight have repeatedly cautioned
