In view OF possible riots and disturbances
the Secretary Of the Treasury Is converting
the sub-treasury In New York city into an
armed and impregnable fortress. The vaults
are oil to be twenty feet below the street, en-.
cased In solid masonry and surrounded by
plates OF chilled steel The whole Nassau
street side will be steel plated. with openings
for musketry to fire on any attacking party.
The summit Of the building will be adorned
by three steel-plated turrets, pierced also for
musketry. Altogether the building will be a
very formidable looking fortress, and proba-
bly, dissuade q mob from attacking It. The
idea OF the treasury seems to be that labor
troubles might arise at some time in New
York. and that in such an event the first build
ing that would be attacked would be the
United States sub-treasury. where, 1t is
known, SO many millions Of dollars rest

The fruit dealers seem to be under misap-
prehension as to the course pursued In the
Senain by Mr.. DeBouchel on the quarantine
bill. AEr. DeBouchel vigorously opposed
the bill and voted against nearly all Its
provisions. Part Of the time the bill was
up he was absent on account of sick
ness. and this was the case at the time
OF the final vote on the bill. The Sena-
tors friends state that while he repeatedly
declared his purpose to support all meas
ures In the interest of trade and assured the
fruit dealers that he would defend and advance
their interests to the best of his ability, he
was not pledged for or against the quarantine
bill, nor for any other specific measure. We
differ with Mr. DeBouchel on the quarantine
question. His course relative to 1t places
him In line with the fruit merchants, while we
believe that we should have a rigid quaran-
tine law in the interest Of the fruit dealers, he
gave notice in the Senate of his intention to
introduce bill entitled can act to amend the
quarantine laws etc. Subsequently he vis-
tied Mr.. Macheca and asked him to have a
bill drawn up which would meet the needs Of
the fruit merchants. Mr. M. replied that he
would have meeting of his associates and
would then wait on him and present their
suggestions. But Mr.. Macheca failed to do
so, and Ill health prevented the Senator from
pressing the matter. Upon the whole it
seems that the fruit merchants have misap-
pretended the position Of Mr.. DeBouchel on
the quarantine question. and done him great
niifatirp

Senator Window, from far-distant Mime
gotta, which State boasts Of a negro fpopula-
tion Of nearly 300, seems to have constituted
himself the special champion and advocate OF
the colored race. He introduced In the Senate
some time ago, 1t will be remembered. q res
olution looking to the appointment of com
nittee of inquiry to find new homes for the
Southern negroes, to which they could escape
and settle. In furtherahce OF this plan Win
dom held an interview the other day with a
number OF colored men, who favored his mi
grafton idea and who desired to lay their
views thereon before him. 1t was noticeable
fact that almost all Of these colored men were
from Northern States or from States like
Maryland, where there can be no complaint
on the part of the negroes OF bad treatment.
The general idea put forward by these self
appointed delegates seemed to be Chat they
and the white people could not live together
IL peace and harmony. Smalls, of South
oarollna, cited the fact that on the coast
islands OF that State, where the colored pop
uAa1ioh was dense and white men were rare, If
no' aiVogether unknown, perfect pence and

THE ADJOURNMENT.

| The Legislature adjourned Saturday at
midnight, after brief but fruitful session.
Perhaps no Legislature ever, in so short o
period, passed SO many important measures.
There was little time wasted In speech max
ing. The large majority of the members were
elected to enact certain important measures,
| hence there was almost perfect harmony
OF views amongst them, and their wol k
was promptly done. 1t is to be regretted
that the session was not prolonged few
days: several measures Of very great lmpor-
lance were lost for want of time. The prlnCi-
pal Of these was the New Orleans Pacific bill.
Had that bill passed we have no doubt the
cars would be running from this city to
Shreveport by the time Of the next meeting Of
the Legislature.
The convention bill was the great measure
OF the session. The people of Louisiana will
now have an opportunity OF forming an or
| gane law based upon the great principles Of
this government and in the interest of the
trade, property and industries OF the State
and not In that Of politicians and office
holders. They will be abb to reduce the cost
| OF government so that 1t will not be an oppres
sion to an impoverished people, and TO render
the administration of justice cheap, vigorous
and speedy. With a new constitution we will
have new order Of things. and we trust an
era Of peace and prosperity.
The repeal Of tho charter Of the Louisiana
Lottery Company was an act Of scarcely less
magnitude than the convention bill. The
| company will, we have no doubt, attempt to
sustain itself In the courts, and may prolong
Its existence for little while. But the spirit
Of civilization is opposed to 1t, and ultimately,
and at no distant day, 1t must go down. No
enlightened court can sustain It, The repeal
Of the charter, therefore, is the beginning of
the end, and before the expiration of the year
this colossal monopoly, late so insolent and
naughty. will tumble to pieces.
The concurrent resolutions, passed on the
last day, denouncing the arrest and persecution
through partisan courts OF citizens of Louis
lana by Federal authority. were prompted by
the proper spirit, and they are noble protests
from the State against the violation of the
constitution and laws of the United States
for base and tyrannioal ends. We should
have been glad, however, IL they had been
more vigorous in their denunciation of these
disgraceful and high-handed proceedings.
Measures OF minor Importance have been
passed which we will mention another time. |
With few days more to work In. the first
session Of the sixth Legislature OF Louisiana
would have passed more acts Of great inn
portance than any Legislative body In Amer
lea has enacted In the same time since the
war. It has met the wishes OF the people, |
and the people will do It's members all honor.
In day or two the Senators and Repre- |
sentatives will be leaving the capital to re-
turn to their homes: the DEMOCRAT wishes
them all a safe and pleasant voyage, and the
applause from their constituencies which
their acts entitle them to receive
