OFFICE OF NEW ORLEANS CITY RAILROAD COMPANY,
No. ia Canal street,
New Orleans, August l, 1876. y
Hon. J. O. Landry, Administrator of Commerce:
We have been running our steam dunn
mics from the lake terminus to our station
OH Canal street for six weeks without
single accident or complaint. We now de-
sire to try the experiment of coming up to
a point near the Clay Statue, feeling salts
fed that We can do so with perfect safety
to the public. We are now compelled to
detach the dummy at Canal street station
and substitute teams consisting of four
mules to bring the large number of passen-
gers up Canal street. The handling of
these teams ia attended with more danger
than in running the dummies. Every pre-
caution shall be taken as to speed, stop
pages, etc., and we hold ourselves strictly
accountable for all damage that may occur.
In the event of the experiment not proving
entirely satisfactory to the public and to
the City Council, we propose making no
further petition in the matter.
We beg to call your attention to the &C.
commodation afforded to thousands OF citi-
zens by this change.
F. WHIT, President.
On motion of Mr.. Landry the Council
granted the permission o. asked for.
The Council then adjourned.

THE PRESS AND THE LEGISLATURE.

1t has become a part of the unwritten law
be informed Of the proceedings of their legis-
lative assemblies and courts. The genius Of
our institutions requires that the process of
establishing laws for the people should be had
in the presence of the people themselves, or,
if their presence is impossible, with such
publicity as will enable every citizen to have
early and full knowledge of this process and
of all that pertains to it. It is not consistent
with the spirit OF representative government
that the servants Of the people should intro
duce bills in secret session, debate on them
with closed doors, and pass them into laws as
their caprice may suggest, then to be held by
the Executive as long as his interest or his
Incidence may prevail. It is the absolute
right of the citizen to know what his law
maker is doing, and when the work is done it
is equally the right of the public TO have it
before them in their official and other journals.
To secure this right it is necessary that
there should be given to the representatives
of public journals all reasonable facilities for
learning what legislators do and say. Mem
bers are no more the representatives of their
constituents in making the laws by which
they are to be governed than journalists are the
agents Of the public in ascertaining and pub
fishing all that relates to such legislation.
10 secure to journalists ample opportunity
to hear and report proceedings they are enti-
tied to access to any Legislative hall, either in
suitable gallery expressly and exclusively
for the press or on the floor Of the ball, with
seats and all needtul appliances. They are
also entitled to the right of inspecting petit
TONS memorials, reports and bills, whenever
such inspection may be necessary to the pub
lie, and without inconvenience to those who
have them in charge.
Representatives of the Press, in short, be-
ing the medium of communication between
the Legislature and the people, should enjoy
by right all reasonable facilities and conve-
niences REQUIRED in the full and efficient dis
charge o. their cry important duties. They
are not intruders to be tolerated by courtesy.
but licensed Interpreters between the people
and their representatives.

A Funny Fable About Colonel Insers

A Funny Fable About Colonel IngerselI,
When Colonel Ingersoll was q small boy
he was, as doubtful experiment, sent to
Sunday school. He was assigned q place
in class, and when his turn came to be
questioned on the catechism he was asked
how many Gods there were. This was q
stumper to Bob, but, with the ready inven-
tion that has lost nothing by use, he replied:
"Seven." As the teacher could not con
ceive the possibility Of such ignorance be-
ing real, it was charged to the spirit of
irreverence, and Bob was soundly thrashed
and sent home. On his road h0meward he
met another boy of the neighborhood
trudging toward the schoolhouse, book in
hand.
"Where are you goingi" asked Bob.
ITO Sunday school, was the reply.
ITO that Sunday school up the hill out
