While the amount required each year will nec-
essarily increase, it will not reach $1,000, 900
before the year 1901, and even in the year
1925, when the last series will be drawn and
paid. the sum required will be less than ST.
500, 600, OF but little more than the present
annual interest. The total debt will then be
paid and cancelled, leaving the credit of the
city without tarnish or damage. The single
drawing already made will result in the liqui-
dation of nearly 100000 of the city debt,
and the next semi-annual drawing will in
crease this sum to about $4,000. Al the
amount of outstanding debt is thus dimin-
ished from year to year, the unpaid balance
will be steadily enhanced in market value.
But the great and pressing necessity is for
present relief, and this is afforded by the Pre-.
MUM Bond plan. Without this, or some
equivalent. there is no escape from city
debt tax Of not less than five per cent per an
mum to meet interest. and maturing bonds.
We hope the Senate will act without dalay.

DIR. Won BULOW.

The musical connoissems of our city will
soon be afforded an opportunity of hearing
the greatest living exponent, except Able
List, of that school of music originated by
the famous Wagner, which has won such q
popularity among all true lovers of the must
cal art. Dr.. Hans Won Bulow has achieved q
worldwide reputation, and his every appear
ance in America has been the signal for
crowded houses; uniting an intense love of
his art to thoroughly educated and refined
method, he has achieved the most signal sue
GEES in his professional career. True critics
Of music are quick to detect the errors and
merits of performer, and when such un-
qualified approval as they have given Dr.. Won
Bulow is bestowed we are prepared to accept
him as faithful exponent of the true beau
ties of the most famous musical COM
positions. The announcement that the first
of short series of concerts to be given by
him in this city. will take place at Grunewald
Hall, on Tuesday evening, February 18th,
will doubtless attract q large and appre-
ciative audience

REST, PERTURBED SPIRITS,
REST.
A Sober Day After the Crooked
Investigations.

Like the sudden entrance from a drsary
swamp into broad meadows, carpeted in an
Administer of green, besemmed With cons.el-
lations of s.ar-nke clover and hare-bells, yes
terday opened, aud the rush of sureties and
the clash of indictments were hushed in the
Custom House.
Even the pigeons roosting upon the capt.
tails Of the tall granite columns in the Custom
House seemed to know that the day was dies
non and SO devoted themselves to straighte n
ing their feathers and adjusting their plumage
as if for Sunday. The marble pavement of
the corridors of the old baildiug, as if lone
some, echoed and re-echoed to the footsteps
of the few individuals whose business hap
pened to call them within its precincts, and
everything and everybody, even General
Brady, wore Sunday air. Cotton, whisky,
Grand Jury, District Attorney, all for the
nonce had vanished and the scenery was put
away, the dress-circle chairs laid aside, and
the sage was one blank space OF fl oring.
A battle-sword, in the shape of q Law book,
rested in .quietude on the table in the CO urt-
room just to show that there had been dra-
ma going on there once, and al un tasted
glass Of water beside Judge Woods's seat told
of the stage banquet; but the actors had re-

The Duke Of Dragh dropped suddenly into
town last night. and Immediately repaired to
that royal hostelrie, the Four Queens, where
he will abide until the bugle calls the mus
teripg of the forces for their grand parade.
Previous to his departure from the Central
wilds Of Tartary, the Duke, we learn on reis-
BILE authority, took part in q most thrilling
and tremendous conflict with the giants STAN
patti and Taikwun, whose depredations have
made the world quiver and quake with
horror.
1t is needless to say that the great Drsgh
proved invincible, and that the consequent
flush of victory soon settled on his brow.
We like to hear these gratifying reports of our
favorites, not only because they are good and
loyal subjects of II 8 Puissant Msjssty, but
because it pleases us to think that every
where as we'll as here their valor and address
prevail.
The Dukes arrival has created quite stir
in royal circles, where he is extremely popu-
lar, and where so important an accession is
hailed with cordial pleasure. He brings with
him a superb retinue of fifty-two gigantic
attendants, among whom are several native
kings and queens and courtiers of the extinct
monarchies Of Tartarv.
The Dukes appearance on Mardi Gras
will elicit unbounded admiration, since the
utmost care and expense have been layished
on the appointments and trsppings of the
company, and the Dukes we'll. known taste
has been lavishly displayed in every detail of
the preparations. We are quite ready to go
it blind in the assertion that when the Duke
passes on Mardi Gras, there will be univer-
sal shout of admiration and delight.

WHAT We NEED.

Retrenchment msdirected is not econ omy
1t is not pleasing to the public to know that
the efforts of those in favor of reform have in
q measure been retarded by the energetic
forces of those who were interested in the de-
feat of the ect to reduce the emoluments be-
longing to the Shrievaliy. Why this obstruc-
ton should have occurred, it is needless now
for us to say, but the fact is patent, for the
bill which passed the Senate-the Radical
Senate-has so far slept in the committee
room of the House-the Democratic House.
To the distaste of many D ,mo Gratis the work
of reform has SO far smacked too much of par
tisanship. What is needed is an impartial
judicial scrutiny Of the list of salaried and
feed officials. Those who have been from
traditional custom the recipients of political
bounty ought now, under the press of the
Strengthened circumstances of our State, to
enter the lists of the reformers, and them
selves encourage retrsnchment in order that
the people may be relieved from their present
burden. The emoluments of the Office OF
Civil Sheriff are immensely beyond what are
considered commensurate with economy; yet
the effort to sustain the present fee bill is
heavily reinforced.
It is not the swath ahead of the Demo-
cratic party here to cut down The salaries of
those who belong to the Radical party. What
the State and the people desire is the reduc-
ton of that fatal drain upon the common
atty, in the shape Of large salaries. Whether
the party be on the one side or the other,
there certainly ought to be fair and equitable
scale in the apportionment of Official pay. If
the Democratic party wants justice, it must
do justice. If it is indeed the party of reform
let it show it by its acts, and not by words
merely. The people want good government
and reform, and as yet, they have neither.

4 BUSINESS CONVENIENCE.

The District Telegraph Company has
fitted up an elegant Office in the court build
ing, Jackson Square, and established q
"court SERVICE" which has already become
very popular with the legal profession and
others having business in the courts.
Among the various advantages this system
presents, the following will suffice to give our
readers an idea of the "service," as inaugur-
ated by permission of the honorable judges:
Lawyers and witnesses can be notified
when their presence is necessary, thus doing
away With the necessity Of remaining in court
perhaps all day, awaiting the call of their
cause.
Ladies who may be compelled to attend
court can be tetegraphed to when they are
wanted.
or store until the case he is interested in
comes up-a fact that will be gratifying to
him. Of course, the proper previous az
rsngements have to be made with the com.
pany as to notification.
The juror can telegraph home or elsewhere
should he be detained.
In a few days the company's upper Office
Magazine and jackson street-will be opened,
when kilograms can be transmitted to and
from either of the three offices and from Jack
son street to jackson Square.
The messenger corps deliver messages with
thus the system offers advantages
and facilities which the public will find to
their profit to patronize.

THE REAL FACTS.

It is useless longer to disguise, even from
ourselves. the fact that louisiana is to be
made again the suffering instrument of Radi.
Cal tyranny, and if possible the field VIII ere
the "bloody shirt is tackled to the masthead,
towards which the administration and its sat-
elites will endeavor to direct the bsfogg ed
attention of the North, in order to again
awaken the now fast dying embers of section.
al strife and discord. Every effort is now
being made to taunt our people into some
overt act which Grant and his Radical repre-
sentatives may torture into either intimidation
or violence. Louisiana must, in the opinion
Of the Radicals, again serve as plant tool to
aid her enemies in securing renewed lease
Of power.
One by one the Southern States have been
slipping from the ruinous grasp Of the
nations e-Radicalism-until there now re-.
main but two which can be at all utilized in
aiding the National Republican party in the
next campaign, or which can serve as huge
houses of refuge for the servants of the party,
where they can be offered treasures to rob
and Federal bayonets to protect them in Their
schemes of spoliation. If the Efforts Of the
Radicals to persuade or tempt us into an ex-
hibition Of anger be not successful, they will
be treated to severe disappointment, and
will be deprived of one of the means by
which they hope to Influence the independent
vote Of the country, that vote which must de-
eide the issues Of the approaching campaign,
aud we must not allow ourselves to fall easy
victims into the net spread for US.
We do not recommend q passive policy,
however, we must be unusually active and
vigilant; but it must be an exercise Of intel
lect, spurred on by hopes of redemption as
well as fears of ruin. We must not enter the
campaign passionately and vindictively, nor
must we prove laggards in the field; our
columns must move steadily onward with e
determination born of reason and GOODNESS,
and must be marshaled by m en- who will not
allow themselves to be angered by taunts and
threats. or ambuscaded by lurking or treach-
erous camp followers. We must recognize
the fact that upon our own efforts depends
our success or failure. We have few. if any,
friends whose advice is purely unsel6sh, or
whose promised aid will ever come; every
step we take we must be prepared to justify
before the world, and must ourselves be
assured will need no retrcgrade movement to
rearrahge or regret. The citizens Of Louis
lana must win the fight for themselves and by
their weapons must be truth and
justice, and their battle conducted with calm.
ness and cool courage.

SHALL NEW ORLEANS CEASE TO BE
4 COMMERCIAL. CITY?

If New Orleans is to dwindre down into
mere cotton depot, losing her other great
trades, especially her import trade, furnish.
ing no market for the exchange o. agricultural
products for articles of foreign production,
and no facilities for cheap and easy trans
portation from the popular regions which seek
and demand port and mart for the dispo-
sition of their products, it needs no prophet to
predict that the once great Crescent City will
have no claim to be regarded or styled CON-
mercial city.
It may be properly described as mere
depot or entrepot, with only factorage bust
ness which will support but small popula-
ton. The large surplus labor and popula-
ton, thrown out of employment by this loss
of trade and reduced resources, must seek
other quarters of the world to escape starva-
ton. Then of what value will be the hun
bred millions Of real estate of this city. Even
now we have too many stores and houses for
the population. The sorrowful fact is an.
nounced that there is but one new house
being erected in the city. This is not to be
wondered at, seeing how many thousands are
already unoccupied, and how many that are
occupied which pay no rent, OF not enough to
meet the taxes and repairs.
1t cannot be very long before such doc
trine must bring our city to the bottom of the
hill; must reduce her to the insignifcance OF
mere caravansary, where few dealers or
agents will encamp for the transaction Of o
single branch of trade, the profits of which
will enure to other and distant communities
This is the sad but truthful picture of the
future Of New Orleans if her population
should persist in their present lethargy and
improvidence, and fail to employ the same
agencies which have built up SO rapidly other
cities of the continent, that have experienced
even greater obstacles and possessed fewer
advantages than We have encountered and
enjoyed.
The test is now presented whether our peo-
pie are incurable of this great vice of thrift
lessness and improvidence, whether like the
fatalistic Turk they will sit down With folded
arms and await the inevitable doom of oil
communities that are thus careless Of the fu.
turs and incapable Of sacrifice to save them.
The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1876-02-13
selves from utter destruction and their city

selves from utter destruction and their city
from death.
This test is afforded by the appeal fer
subscriptions to the New Orleans Pacific Rail-
road. We are no. hopeless that the result
will discourage those who have SO earnestly
undertaken this work, and who only require
the cooperation Of the people to ensure is
early success. It would indeed be dark day
in New Orleans, source of the g.oomiest APP
prehension for the future should this appeal
be made in vain, aud this most needful and
beneficial Of all the enterprises ever under
taken by her people fail for the want of the
small material contribution and aid of our
people.

Louisiana As It Is BY Daniel bennett.

Louisiana As 1t Is-By Daniel bennett.
We have heretofore noticed the prospectus
Of this work, Of which advanced sheets are
now offered for our inspection. The 176
psges before us comprise very large amount
Of statistical, geographical, Typographical,
social, ethnographical, historical, geological,
climatic, photographic, floral, agricultural,
hygenic and general information respecting
Louisiana. II is essentially book Of vaua-
BILE and most interesting facts, col
lected, compiled, collated and con-
densed by gentleman in every respect
competent to the great and useful task
which he has undertaken. The author is es-
sentislly reliable statistcian, veteran apd
distinguished attache of the Louisiana press,
and withal true photographed citizen who
has done more to make Louisiana we'll and
truly known abroad than any writer of bis
day or that has preceded him. The volume
will consist OF about 220 pages when finished,
and we do not hesitate to say that il win COM
prise more information of valuable sort than
the most active and intelligent visitor could
acquire in ten years Of industrious travel in
quiry and inspection. Those who are acquain.-
ed with the talented and upright author ara
aware that this book is condensed summary
Of what he has learned in part by study, but
chiefly by personal observation. He is well
acquainted with all the highways and byways
Of Louisiana by land and water. He has
spent months and years in travelling from
plantation to plantation and from parish to
parish, all over the State. If his book had
been destroyed in manuscript he could almost
reproduce it from memory.
We are pleased to know and state that Col.
bennett has the materials in readiness for
another book on Louisiana, with contents
entirely new.
Want Of space cuts short our notice of this
valuable work, but when completed we shall
recur to It more in detail.
