HONOR 70 WHOM HONOR Is DUE.

Fault finders have murmured and as
sailed the Senate. 1t has been urged
that they opposed reform; the SANDER
is refuted. Acts speak louder than
words That enlightened body has
passed bill, reform measure! The
act makes it the duty Of the Civil Sheriff
to render, at the end Of every month, a
sworn statement of the gross receipts OF
his office and so soon rs the said gross
receipts In any one calendar year
shall amount to $4,000, he shall
then monthly pay to the city OF New
Orleans the full amount received. 1t
was urged that the bill was uncon-
stitutional; that article 03 Of the con-
stitution prescribed that the Sheriff
should receive such fees OF office as
may be prescribed by law" That limit
ing the amount to q sum fixed was
making the Office u salaried office. That
allowing the large fees to remain and
the transfer of the surplus over forty
thousand dollars to the city OF New
Orleans, was a special tax on litigants
and in contravcntion OF the article,
which demands that taxation shall be
equal and uniform.
It was further urged that the actual
expenses of the Office exceeded $4,000 ;
that the monthly pay roll OF s,ibordi-
mates was over 5000. These objections
were ignored. The energetic Stamps,
the honest Sypher, the logical Blunt,
all urged that the public and the press
were clamorous for reform. They had
no data to guide them, they knew not
what were the expenditures Of the office,
but that was not their fault. It Is true
that they had made no inquiry, but
they had called for joint
committee to investigate reform
measures, and, say they, the House
has not responded, hence they could not
seek the necessary information, as they
did not wish their acts to be considered
partisan, and yet they can produce bill
without having any knowledge OF the
subject matter! They say this is a re-
form measure; reform measures are
clamored for; we will pass the bill, I'M
constitutional or absurd though 1t may
be. II it be SO, the House Of Represent
atives will reject the bill. And this is
reform; not such reform, however, as
we need. We desire to see the fees re-
duced we desire an act that may go
into effect and will do justice to all
parties; not one whose effect would
be virtually to abolish the Office, for no
one would accept it with certain yearly
loss Of some forty thousand, or which
would allow the sheriff to enjoy the
emoluments now allowed. The sheriff
would either retire or contest the act on
the ground Of unconstitutionality. Re-
formers, return thanks to your enlight-
ened Senators; you have specimen of
the reform which they intend and be-
ware, Representatives, If you reject any
of their wise measures, as you then will
feel the opprobrium. sa NY

The committee OF citizens appointed
by the great meeting held on the 27th Of
January to solicit subscriptions for this
road will start upon their mission on
Monday. They will make thorough
canvass of the city, dividing It for that
purpose into districts. They will seek
first to enlist the property holders, who
are most prominently involved In the
success of this enterprise, and who are
the greatest sufferers from the loss of
trade, the depreciation OF real estate
and the inability OF tenants to pay re-
munerative rents. They are justly
expected to set an example to the other
classes Of the community OF the appre-
citation Of the great Importance Of this
work, as they will be the first to ex-
perience the benefit OF the great
enhancement In the value OF their prop
erty. Let this advance follow, let our
assessment be augmented by half or
. third, and the property holders will
soon cease to clamor against even the
present high rate OF taxation. The
other classes, the small proprietors, the
mechanics and trades people and their
employees will not be slow to follow the
example Of the property holders and
landlords. All Of them have clear per-
ception, profound conviction. Of the
urgent need OF this road to reclaim and
enlarge the trade we have lost with
Texas and our northwestern parishes,
which more active and energetic com
munities are making the most gigantic
cndeavors to withdraw from New Or
leans. Let all (firstly and mainly our
property holders) unite in the supreme
effort which is now being made to de-
feat this purpose and re-astablish the
status and claim Of New Orleans as
the grand and favorite mart for the
trade OF the vast territory OF Texas with
ito incalculable future Of development
and wealth. This alone is needed to
render New Orleans in the near future
the second II not the first commercial
city OF the continent and the universally
acknowledged metropolis of the Missis
sippi Valley.

Excavating Company.

Yesterday the House of Representa-
tives, on motion OF Mr.. Ray, of East Fell
ciana, passed through three readings, a
bill to repeal the act. creating the Ex-
cavating Company, an association OF
capitalists, who claim the monopoly OF
the privilege Of cleaning the privies and
vaults of the city. 1t was very properly
urged by Mr.. Ray that this corporation
destroyed competition and virtually
deprived class of humble laborers OF u
lawful livelihood and occupation, to wit ::
the vidangeurs, who are mostly Of the
class of colored citizens. The Conscrva-
tives all voted for the repeal Of the ex-
elusive right Of this corporation.
And the bill was passed nearly unani-
mously. All very well. But there are
other trades and occupations which
have been bartered to these private cor
porations, involving the rights OF labor
OF both white and colored citizens
which do not seem to enlist the same
interest and zeal that characterized
this prompt action in regard tothc SAM
tary and Excavating Company. OF this
class the Slaughterhouse is prominent
example. More than a thousand citi-
zens, white and colored, have
been deprived OF their right to
prosecute their vocations by the
operation of this bill. These rights
have been monopolized by a private
company OF capitalists, not butchers
or stockholders. A bill offered by Mr..
Kummel has been before the Judiciary
Committee for some days to restore to
the butchers and stockholders the right
to pursue their calling, and to deprive
this huge monopoly Of its exclusive
rights, and no report has been made or
action taken. Here are thousands OF
citizens. mostly whites, who are by this
shameless act deprived of the right OF
pursuing their legitimate avocation.
Why is this thus?
