Our short lived beauties Gie away"

A CITIZEN of Beall's addition, who
has fine yard and garden, has de-
livered his p1opeu1acinne7'to against any
COW caught therein. He is man Of
his word, too. The authorities hay
ing withdrawn protection from the
worthy animals, it behooves the own
ers to look to their well-being. There
are gardens where sanitary rogula-
tions for cows are wofully neglected.
Indeed, some are SO unhealthy that
the vital part Of a COW would become
a "bulrs eye" the centre Of which
would be driven half-a-dozen times in
three seconds. We are wholly oppos-
ed to this way of redressing trespas-
ses, but what more can we do than
warn cow-owners that there are places
where the deadly fre-arm is constant
ly charged to avenge raid. At these
places the garden and yard are just
as highly priced as the COW is at her
home.

The examination at Wheeler Hall
this week reflected great credit upon
teachers and pupils. The school has
achieved large results during its short
career, and the attenance has steadily
increased. The Misses Kern are
thoroughly competent, painstaking
teachers, as we'll in manners as in
letters. Their patrons are well pleas
ed; we have heard OF none VINO viii
not continue their patronage. Tie
establishment of this institution was
attended with considerable expense,
and it ought to be encouraged and
supported as cheerfully and literally
as practicable.

TO THE PUBLIC.
DEPARTMENT OF IMPROVEMENTS
Room No. i6, City Hall.
New Orleans, July 27, 1873.

As It becomes necessary for the preservation
Of the health of the city at this season of the
year. that every possible effort should be made
towards keeping the public avenues, cutters
and alleys clean and free from all offensive
matter, hereby respectfully call upon the pub
lie to assist the authorities by implying with
the following requests, to wit
l. Such residents as have yard hydrants are
requested to permit same to run a sufficient
time to wash away rubbish. filth, ETC., and to
render the street cutters fresh and clean. This
step becomes necessary as many of the cross
streets, or streets parallel with the river are
without water plugs and the difficulty hereto
fore experienced in flushing these cutters be-
ing mainly due to detective drainage and the
want OF water.
Q. Residents will please place, or instruct
their servants to place, the garbage in boxes in
front of their dwellings before O'Clock a. m
prior to the city carts making their rounds. 4
strict adherence to this plan will remove, in g.
great measure. the cause of the great number of
complaints concerning the non removal Of
garbage.
therefore earnestly request all good citizens
to aid the authorities in keeping the streets
and cutters clean and healthy. and in assisting
to remove any waste or offensive scattering
promptly.
If proper spirit is manifested by the public
in this respect the workings of this department
will be greatly facilitated. and much of the
cause for complaint heretofore existing mate
rally obvlated. JOHN McCAFFREY,

To GET AROUND THE ATLANTIC.-There
Ia O. proposition to build railroad around the
world, with water gaps Of forty miles at
Behring Straits and about 5000 miles or 80 of
Atlantic ocean. The propOser says it can be
done, and will be done-if not in his time,
then some time after. He wants to put him
self on record as the father Of the grand
scheme to belt the world with iron and make
q continuous line Of railroad travel from
Washington City to st. Petersburg by way Of
Behring Straigfts, thence to London and Liv-
erpool, with only the English channel of
water travel between.
The proposer's name IL s. A. d. Greaves-
q thoroughbred Kentuckian, man OF great
imagination and small means. He wants the
American, English and Russian capitalists
to jump at the chance OF adding the crown
to the nineteenth century world wonders Of
engineering. He calls the scientific talk OF
tllnnellng the Atlantic q "castle in the air, "
probably because it would be necessary to
build 1t under the sea. His plan Is, however,
feasible and practicable. because people live,
and cities and towns are built all along the
proposed route, and wherever people can ex-
list, railroad can be built and live. The great
engineering triumphs leading up to this mon 1
ster design and proving It's feasibility are, the
Suez canal, the Mont Cents tunnel and the
Pacific Railroad. He forgot to mention the
