Registratfou in Terrebouue.

On Monday last Mr.. Boyd, supervisor Of
registration for this parish, visited Little
Gallon for the purpose of conducting the
registration. For come reasons unknown
named refused to accommodate the super
visor, either as to office or board. This con-
duct on the part of people who owed graft
tude, if not respect, to the supervisor.
very naturally forced Mr.. Boyd to stand
upon his dignity as gentleman. He i'm
mediately returned to Houms, and We pre-
sumo that the would be lords of creation Of
Little Gallon will have many summers
pass over their heads before they will again
have an opportunity of attempting to insult
a gentleman who went ont of his way to &C.
commodate them.-Ierreb0nne Repu blican

PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.
This body succeeded in obtaining quorum
yesterday, the second time this season. The
meeting was called to order by Professor
Wayne.
The appointed subject for discussion was:
"The best method of teaching English
grammar" An essay, from the pen of Mrs.
A w. Brown, was read, and proved to be
really interesting to all present. A dis
course, on the same topic, was participated
in by Messrs. Henry Duflho, L L. Bourges.
NJ. NJ. Lowe and Mrs. Clark. This matter
being concluded the chairman announced
that Professor Seaman had been invited to
give an expression Of his impressions of
what he had seen at the centennial. The
professor enter tanned his audience for near.
~ an hour, and when he closed nearly every
person IN the room expressed q wish for him
to proceed. His remarks were decidedly
practical, yet couched in pleasant phrases,
and it is to be regretted that all he said can
not be reproduced in today paper.
Professor Wayne followed, and told some
of his centennial experiences, which were
really instructive.

A RATIFIC ATOM MEETING.-Mr. Martin
Finnerty, president of the Third Ward
Central Democratic Conservative Club, so
called, notified his clans to assemble in the
St. Charles Theatre last night to hear Hon.
4. L. Gibson spout on Democratic princi-
pies. Either the principles or Mr.. Gibson
failed to put in an appearance. Mr.. Tucker,
an attorney, all the way from New Eng
land. and who several years ago settled in
St. Mary parish, q solid Democrat, stepped
on the stage and informed the slim audi
ence that MIR. Gibson, being sick, could not
appear and address the untold millions who
had not turned out to hear all he might
have said. The theatre was about half
filed by a miscellaneous crowd, and as
soon as announcement was made that his
honorable self could not IN AXE q talk, many
of the better class Of citizens departed sud.
denly, as if they had by chance remem
bered that q man around the corner wished
to see them. Mr.. w. II. Rogers was called
to the footlights, and he stated that as he
is candidate for soft seat, he preferred
to say as little as possible. He succeeded.

CHRISTOPHER CoLUMBUS.-If residents
of this country have day in all the year
that they should celebrate, it is the
twelfth of October, the day that Chris
topher Columbus discovered America; yet
We think more of INDUCING in great
jubilee over our hundredth birthday than
we do in paying our respects to the great
adventurer. Italians, residents of this city,
have in part determined to observe the day
Tor rather the fifteenth Of October), and
have marked out q programme which will
undoubtedly prove highly entertaining If
fully executed. All kinds of associations
are invited to participate, and if those who
-evel in the benefits of America do not take
a. active part in it as they do in Mardl
Gras festivity, then they acknowledge
themselves unworthy of the blessings
bestowed on them by the discoverer OF q
new world.

INDEPENDENT REFORM.-There is q great
dread Of an Independent movement in the
parish of Orleans, consequently every effort
is made to defeat it. The Pcayunc referred
yesterday to some supposed dlssensions, in
an article entitled THE Independents"
The chairmen Of two delegations were men
toned. One was stated to have with drawn
his delegation, and the article conveyed
the impression that the other would do the
same.
Both inferences were incorrect. Each
gentleman mentioaed has written letter
containing denial that he has abandoned
the Independent movement.
That Of Mr.. 4. j. Byrnes states that he,
as chairman of the Mechanics and Labor
ing Mems Union, has not withdrawn from
the Independent movement; that NO meet
ing of the Union had been held, and it re-
mains solid for the movement.

The DEATH OF WILLIAM CONDON.-Fri-
day night poor Billy Condor passed away
from earth, the result of a wound received
when defending the interests of those whom
he deemed it wise to befriend. He may
have been indiscreet or otherwise, but one
thing is certain, he took his death knell in
standing steadfast to the faith he had
pledged himself SO, although his reward
would not have been great. There is q
consolation in knowing that his friends
stood close to him to the last moments of
his life. He leaves large family, unpro-
vided for.
The following official document from DR..
E. s. Drew, city physician, tells its own
story:
This will certify that held an autopsy
on the body of William Condor, found
living dead ut his residence on Dorgenois,
near PALMYRA street. wound from a pis-
tol or gun was inflicted in the left knee,
fracturing the patilla, or knee cap. and q
scar one and one half inches from the right
nipple, from which could be traced the
track of decorating wound through the
upper lobe of the right lung. scar just
evidence that some foreign substance had
been extracted; and also an incised wound
on the right side, between the eighth and
ninth ribs, eaid to have been made by DR..
Stone to relieve the lungs Of accumulated
pus. Death was caused by abcess OF the
lungs, superinduced by the wOunding of
the lung.
An inquest will be held during the pres.
emit week.
