new capitol at Baton Rouge by tho sen.
sational report Of an interview with
senator liag,,,, member Of tho Com
mission, printed IN the Times and
Picayune yesterday morning, certainly
the proceedings Of the Commission hold
ut a Inter hour and printed today must
remove all apprchensions.
In tho two specific statements made
by tho Senator he was entirely wrong.
l. II was shown that, whereas Senator
Hagan was represented M saying that
bids had been let out to the amount Of
4l32, 900, the true amount is only $751;
WW. This error however, the Senator
clMagcS to the reporter Of the Times,
who misunderstood him. 2. II was
shown that notwithstanding Mr.. llagan's
statement to the contrary, the plans Of
the architect arc accompanied by full
and complete specifications which have
since the submission Of his plans been
on tile in his Office for inspection.
The general charge TINT TIM work being
don" il worthless -- that under the pres
cnt management the appropriation viii
not bc sufficient, nor the work be conf
plrtrd in reasonable time is, met by
counter statements Of every other mem.
hcr Of the commission
The unsupported charges Of Senator
liagan will not outweigh III the public
mind the statements of Mni. +. i. Rich
artlson, Dr. Burlington, Gen. Munday
and Mr.. Robertson, all Of them as well
acquainted will, the facts ns Senator
Hagan and all them mon Of the highest
character for integrity and intelligence,
Indeed we do not bcliovc that a more
incorrptible and competent commission
could have hccn selected to conduct this
important work.
As for Major Frcret, the Architect, he
is, known in this city MS one Of tho ablcst,
most thorough and accomplish men in
his profession.
Finally, Mr.. Bird, the superintendent
ofthc work, is II tl,oroughgoing, cntcrpri-
sing man, whose character for intrlli
gcncc an, honor is rs high ns that Of any
man In the State, While We know this
gentleman better through report than
personally, wclo not hesitate to say that
no interest OF the public will suffer in
his hands, either though, his incon,pct-
cucy to perform any duty he assumes or
his want Of sterling honesty in tho cxcr-
ciso Of his trust.
Tho Commission, however, on the
strength Of the disparaging statement Of
Senator Hagan, has appointed u COM
mittcc Of three to investigate and report
upon tho facts. Tho committee consists

4 burning Shame.

Read the article entitled "rle Water
loo Packet" to bc found in another col
unn, whicl, We copy from the Baton
Rouge CAriIoL,AN.
IL would seem from this article that
the people Of Baton Rouge are awaking
to the Importance Of this movement and
are in earnest about it; and they arc
right TO-, for there IS money IN H. We
appreciate fmlly what the CArIInL,AN
says about tho New Orleans steamers {;
for on our recent visit to Baton Rouge
wo paid three dollars passage on the
John W. Cannnn from Waterloo, max
ing the trip in two hours; returning, we
paid three dollars on the Corona, and
made the trip in twelve ours.--f'oimtc
.Conpce Banner.
The above indicates how heartily the
Pointc Coupcc people would second and
materially MD tho proposed Waterloo
packet, and consequently how impor-
tant it is to the business interests Of
Baton Rouge. Our merchants have
the margin to sell all classes Of goods as
cheap as those Of any Western Or South
"rn city, and this is the "pportunc mo
mcnt for active, bu,inrss-likc work.
There is no ,,sc dcnying the fact that if
those who nre engaged in business hero
failed to act, they will, in time, be
crowded ont by others Of II more enter
prising and business character The
opening is here, and men with half an
eye to mercantile advantages cannot
fail to see it. Now, in the name Of com
mon SENSE, let there be no "littlcncss,"
but one and ull rise mp tO tho work Of
the hour. Business is business. II is
fallacy to say that only one section, or
two or three sections Of the town will
bc benefited, for such is not the case.
A business Of this kind cannot b. partial
in its results. The farmer or retail n,cl'-
chant who resolves to adopt this as u
medium Of business communication with
Baton Rouge will give his trade to the
merchant with whom he can make the
best terms, and will stop ut tho hotel
where he receives the best accommOda-
tions, and he will ship his cotton, moss,
etc, accordingly. Start the Carl Schurz
without delay. We want no more three
dollar trips to coast points that lay
within u few miles of Ill.,
We want cheap medium, Of freight
and passenger transportation that affords
all an equal chancc--that will enable
the small farmer to come to this city
and buy his supplies as cheap as the
lor,lly dealers who bleed him of his life
giving substance.
Yes, gentlemen, orr business field has
widencd, and Il new system must be
adopted or somebody will be left out in
the cold,

Labor Of brick work $500.
Iron work contract awarded yesterday
to the Shakspears Iron Works, SG3, 900.
Grand total for the entire construction
OF the State House Sl6l,llS.
The sum of Sl4l 900 having been ap-
propriatcd by the Legislature and $685..
ofo additional given l,y the city of Baton
Rougc for the construction of the State
House, makes u total Of SIG, ,oonfor that
purpose.
All the contracts awarded and csti-
mates for the full completion of the
work amount to SlGl, lls, which leaves
a balance of Sl4,Ss2. a O
Mr.. iiayan offered the following resp
luton;
Be it resolved, That the entire work
not already under contract be advcr-
tised for bids, and that the architect lie
authorized to prepare plans and spcciii-
cations for tile Same Immediately. O
In answer to inquiries, Mr.. Frcrct
stated that it would not be necessary to
contract for certain portions of the
work for u year or eighteen months. III
his opinion it would not be advisable to
give out I'LL the work at present.
The resolution offered by Mr.. lIagan
was laid upon the table.
DR.. Burlington salt, that he hal no.
ticea with surprise u statement made by
Mr.. Hagan relative to tho contracts, cs-
Inmates and work already done, which
was so outrageous that he would quote
one INSTANCE as Il sample Of the rest.
Mr.. llagan said in his statement, as
published in the New Orleans Picayunr
and Times Of that n,om,ing, that the
contract work already let ont amounted
to Sl32, 900, while the actual amount at
that time was but S5S, ,S65.
Mr.. liagan charged tho reporters with
having made the mistake in adding the
then lowest bid Of $4,000 for the iron
work to the $4,000 let out for other
contracts, while the former bid was not
then accepted by the board. Mr.. Nagan
said tho joiner work was put down ut
S25, ,MO when hc believed il would cost
$4,000.
DIR. Burlington then offered the follow
ing resolution, which was adopted:
Whereas, Senators Hagan, u member
of the commission, elected by the Legis-
latnre to prepare the State Capitol, has
made Il statement in the morning papers
unjustly criticiziny tho action of the
board AMI calulatcd to mislcad the pub
lie.
Resolved, That u committee of three
be appointed by the President Of the
board to make correct statement Of
proceedings for publication.
The President asked Mr.. Hagan if he
would servo upon the committee if ap-
pointed. Mr.. Hagm replied that he
preferred not to b. appointed.
The President then appointed as the
committee Mcssrs. Richardson, Mun,lay
and Robertson, DR.. Burlington desiring
that hs should not he appointed u n.en,-
Der of the committee.
The meeting then adjourned.
