INDICATIONS OF PROGRESS.

The Times yesterday evening reproduced
from the New York Tribune an article on
Southern Cities In which 1t is held that there
are only few cities between the Potomac and
the Rio Grande that are growing and pros
pering. The statement thus generally made
Is perhaps correct But the assertion con-
tanned In the article that New Orleans 10
erecting no new buildings, and expanding
little for paint and repairs on the old ones,
and is allowing her streets to become cess
pools to breed new pestllenee," has no founda-
ton In fact and Is only new PRONUNCIATION OF
an old Islander.
The future OF New Orleans is brighter than
1t has ever been before. and feeling OF hope
fulness, pervading all classes, has given birth
to q real spirit Of enterprise
In the first place O thorough system OF sani-
tation was inaugurated early this year and
has been carried forward with remarkable
vigor and success. No great city Ia the Union
Is cleaner than New Orleans Ii now. Every To-
eality Of tho town has been cleansed and is
kept clean. 1t Ii rare thing, even In the 70
hottest streets, to meet with offensive odors.
| III this important work the Board OF Health,
the city government and the Auxiliary SAM
tary Association have co-operated with vigor,
intelligence aud effect and their labors have
been fruitful of good results.
| It is to be hoped that some regular and syS-
tematic plan OF drainage and OF sanitation
generally will soon be adopted, by which q
gradual and permanent Improvement Of the
location Of the city will be effected. But 1t Is
absolutely untrue that our streets ore filthy,
and that we are permitting them to become,
In the language Of the Tribune, "cess-pools to
breed new pestilence."
| Neither Ii 1t true that no local improve
ments are being made. On the contrary, the
work Of regeneration Is going on In every
quarter. The carpenter and the painter, the
mason and the plasterer are busy, and the
streets are beginning to look as bright and
new as In the old days.
/ But thsis All unimportant matter compared
| with the new avenues OF trade which are being
i opened. Tho New Orleans Pacific Railroad,
| connecting the city with Northern and East
ern Texas, Arkansas and North Louisiana,
will certainly be completed In a reasonable
time while the line TO Houston, rapidly reach
ing completion, will giveus, before the first OF
january, through rail connection with San An
tonic and every portion of the vast empire OF
Texas. From San Antonio the line Is to be
extended to I'll Paso, where 1t will meet the
Il Southern Pacific and thus complete the route
from New Orleans to the Pacific ocean, consti-
tutlng the.most valuable and important line
that has been or can be built or projected
across the continent.
These are some of the signs and evidences
OF the progress of New Orleans briefly
thrown together to meet the stale and dam
aging SANDER OF the New York paper. Dun
people feel these signs, as 1t were, In theil
very bones, and now confidently look to fu-
ture OF great commercial growth and pros
perity.

CONGRESS convened on Tuesday
last in extra session, and for the first
time in many years with n democratic
majority in both Houses. The agiiat-
ing question of the session will be the
repeal of those infamous laws enacted
by the republican party in their long
lease of power to hold and control the
elections of the people, regardless of
any desire that might be apparent for
the change of either men or measures.
Prominent among these are those pro-
scribing the intelligent white man Of
the South, and making him subordi.
nate to the ignorant negro, as in the
Jury test oath, the Federal supervi-
sors of election, the employment of the
Federal troops, and thousands of arm.
cd deputy marshals, TO overawe and
prevent a fair expression of the people
by the ballot. These infamous meas
ures will have to give place to intelli.
gent and fair legislation, or the adj
ministration will be short of funds to
to make them effective hereafter. It
is not to be supposed the democrats
will surrender their vantage now that
they have the power to correct these
oppressive political outrages upon the
people. The threat of the man in the
White House, or his stalwart partizan,
to make free use of the veto TO prevent
these reforms, should only stimulate
the majority to determined and thor
ough action, and warn the fraud to be
careful that he does not overstep the
bounds of discretion and prudence.
The elections should be free in the
states, and the people allowed to choose
their representatives without being
subject TO either the Federal troops, or
the thousands of marshals, whose work
was so recently traced under the man.

A Nice Game Spoiled.

The nice little game of Mr.. Hayes
and his friends, calling the extra ses.
sion of congress at US early date as
the 18th, time when it was believed
it would not be possible for the sick
members TO be present, TO participate
in the organization, has been frustrated
by the recuperative energy of the sick
members, and tho rallying power OF
the democracy when put upon their
metal. The members are oil present.
Neither Mr.. Garfield nor Judge Kel-
ley are therefore elected Speaker, and
the object of the disagreement on their
part is u failure. A Washington pa
per says, A short time before congress
adjourned, on the 4th inst, Mr.. Gar
field said to Mr.. Blackburn and sew
eral others "Well, it's now too late
to hope for any agreement. The con-
ference committees have finally dis
agreed, and, rs a matter of course, an
extra session must come. Now, when
do you democrats suppose it will be
called ?"
"Oh, pretty soon; about the goth
of this month, perhaps" suggested
Mr.. Blackburn.
"You are within two days of it. 1t
will be called to meet on the 18th,
and you democrats have overreached
yourselves"
"How?" was asked.
I" Because you have a few sick and
disabled members who can't be here
by that time, and without them you
won't have votes enough to organize
the house." retorted Garfield exult-
ingly.
Before the adjournment Charles
Foster had copy of Hayes procla-
nation in his pocket he said so after
wards. These two circumstances furn-
ish conclusive proof that the calling
of the extra session Mt once was a
Radical scheme and that they expected
to have the democrats at disadvant-
age. Their plan was to make Garfield
speaker if it could be done, but the
thing wouldn't work"
