The Essayons.

Last year it was discovered that the
dredgeboat Essayons, after eight years of
service, needed repairs of the most exten-
sive kind to be further useful. Constant
sinking to the required depth, alternated
with exposure to the air, had injured her
hull as much as the steady wear and tear
had the machinery. 1t was necessary that
she should be docked, and the authorities,
instead of sending her North, contracted
with Messrs. Brady & Mcclellan, and she
was placed in the Louisiana dry dock and
steam marine ways December Is.
She is now ready for unlocking. so far as
the hull is concerned and is in as good con-
dition as when new. She has been stripped
down eighteen feet and fully two thirds of
her top and side timbers are new and made
of red cypress, and then planked with yel-
low pine. These species Of timber, abound
ing in Louisiana, are most desirable for ship
building. and are in demand at every ship
yard. She has been copped up sixteen feet.
All her floor timbers and the portions not
exposed to the air being perfectly sound
she may be said to be completely restored.
The success of this undertaking, one of
the most complete and extensive seen in
New Orleans for many years, is very en-
couragng. With abundance of material
and skilled labor at hand, and this example
to prove their excellence, it is reasonable to
hope for more successful rivalry with the
builders of other cities. The work done by
Messrs Brady & Mcclellan, under the super
vision of Major C. w. Howell. his sub
ordinates, has given employment to be-
tween three and four hundred carpenters,
caulkers, foundrymen, mechanics and boiler
makers, who form the most deserving class
of citizens, for nearly three months.
The cost will be about So, 600, and divid-
ed as it is in this manner among them, will
do almost as much good as the Essayons

THE WoRKINGMEN's BANK.-Among the
most staunch and reliable Of our savings
banks this institution deserves to be remem-
bered. Its board of directors and officers
are gentlemen of the highest integrity and
of business experience of the most extended
character. By placing their savings in
their hands depositors can rely not only
UPON their safety, but that they will be in
vested in such manner as to yield the
highest interest consistent with sound busi-
ness principles. We have frequently taken
occasion to advise our readers to lay up
their savings. in good bank, and this Is
one of the kind We meant.

The Tweed case is continually producing
surprises, but the last is the most agreeable.
Last Thursday Charles O'Conor made his
appearance in court and, consistently with
his opinion in the case before the Court OF
Errors that dismissd all but one of the
counts in the indictment on which Tweed
was convicted. took a vigorous part in the
prosecution. The great advocate is de-
scribed as looking remarkably we'll, con-
sidering the reports of his previous illness.

The Black Hills-Seneral Sherfdan's
Views.

The Black H1IIs-eieneraI Sher1dan'S .
Views.
The Military Committee of the House of
Representatives having requested Lieuten-
ant General p. II. Sheridan to supplement
his testimony on military affairs recently
made the following suggestions. 1t will be
seen that he has cut down the apprOpria-
tions required by the bill introduced by
Mr. McGinnis from $500, 900 to 100000. In
view of the immigration to the Black Hills
and the present military expedition, this
communication of the Lieutenant General
has peculiar interest:
b HKApQrARrRRs MILITARY DIVISION OF MISSOURI,
Chicago. ILL.,, FebI usry.26. 1876.
The necessity for two military posts on
the Yellowstone has been apparent to me
for two years past, and have recommended
their establishment in my annual report.
So strongly have l been convinced of this
necessity that have, without any expense
to the government, made an examination
of the Yellowstone river, and selected the
points at which they should be built.
The Indian question in the Black Hills
must now be settled by the establishment
the accomplishment of this purpose the two
posts mentioned will have to be located
one at or near the mouth Of the Big Horn
river, the other at or near the mouth of
Tongue river. Those posts can be sup
piled by steamboat up the Yellowstone,
and can be constructed of material found
in the vicinity of the points selected.
think l can have them built for $l0O, 600
each. In other words, will try to build
both for 5000. instead Of the $500, 900
mentioned in the bill.
The Black Hills country will probably be
covered with towns and villages during the
next five or six years. Its settlement will
cause the extension of the Northern Pacific
railroad on the south side of the Yellow.
tone, as far as the Gallatin Valley, in Mon
tana; and there will also be built another
railroad from North Platte Station, on the
Union Pacific railroad, to the Black Hills.
am of the belief that the largest depos-
its of gold are further west than where the
miners are now working. The head waters
of this Wind river are gold bearing; the Owl
Creek mountains are gold bearing; the Big
Horn valley is gold bearing; Powder river
is gold bearing; also Clark's fork of the
Yellowstone. Besides this, the Black Hills
have abundance of timber for the treeless
country south of them and west of the Mis-
souri, river.
The success of all these interests depends
on the establishment of the two posts
named. Military operations have now been
commenced against the hostile bands of
Sioux by request of the Interior Depart
ment, and consider this appropriation so
necessary that especially request lmme-
diste action upon it.

NOTHING TO DO BUT TO GO.

A wandcrcr I've becn and have Travelled for years,
BY the stage-coach, the steamboat, the train;
have known joyful meetings, have shed parting
tears.
with friends I might necr meet again,
And I've lcarned-let my farewells be joyous or
sad
20 haste or distraction to show;
But, with baggage prechecked and with passage
prepaid;
To have nothing to do but to 60.
The Ioiterer, when over the iron-clad track
The train Is heard coming apace,
Tor his ticket will clanor and urge for his check
In a whifle Of impatient distress,
While others, more hmeful, with undisturbed
mien
Will cnnposedly pace to and fro,
Or quietly seated win wait for the train,
With nothing to do but to go
Oh! thus have thought, when we're called to
depart
For the land whence we never return,
May We feel we are fully prepared for the start
When the deathsounding note we discern
With our ticket secured and our cares all at rest
No disGuicting notes may we know;
But TRANQUILITY waiting, be found at the last
With nothing to do but to 90.

Our delegates to the state convention

independent ticket, Messrs. Steward and

On other candidates there will be three
tickets, and, of course, the Republicans
are safe on all but governor and auditor,
The Independents will also put an cleo
toral ticket in the field, which ensures the
state for Hayes OF course the hide
pendents have a right to play into the
hands of the Republicans, they did it two
years ago and thus saved that party the
state treasurer. They will DO it now, and
thus save that party all the state officers
except governor and auditor: and also
save this state for another term of the cor
rupt Republican national administration.
Their professions OF desire fos economy,
honesty and reform are poorly illustrated
when We see them playing into Repubi,
can hands, state and national. We are
thankful that it is out of their power tc
elect Hayes, and that Tilden is to be the
next president.
