MEMENTOES OF THE FAR.FAMED
ALABAMA.

The following, though a private
letter to the editor of this paper, will
be found of interest to our readers,
aud we assume the privilege of it's
publication. 1t has reference to the
! sinking of that grand old war vessel,
the Alabama, giving some interesting
points which have not as yet reached
the public prints:
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. /, 1881.
Honorable Leon Jastremski:
DEAR SIR have Just returned
from Middle Georgia, where, accom-
panied by my family, l have been re-
cuperating in its delightful climate
in the midst of many of my old war
time friends.
Near Griffin, Ga, resides Capt. Kell,
the second in command of the famous
alabama" He is engaged in farm
ing operations, surrounded by most
estlmable wife and five children. He
tells me when the immortal warrior
OF the mighty deep went down thun-
derlng defiance to the last, he took to
the water in his underclothing alone,
saving nothing. Commodore or Ad-
mlral Semmes, however. left the sink
ing steamer in full dress, but only
able to carry off with him two KEYS,
the chest and cabin keys, these being
the only relics of this great cruiser.
The two keys were subsequently di-
vlded between the Admiral and the
Captain-were small keys and were
afterwards gold-mounted, and thus
preserved as mementoes of Confeder-
ate life on the battle-felds of Old
Ocean.
While in Georgia, your paper was
forwarded to me, and in one of your
numbers, a letter complaining ofG
Gordon's injustice to the brave bows
OF our own State, appeared. Since
my return, gentleman from Georgia,
has written me for q copy of that
number, and | beg to apply to you
Tor the same. | believe the article
was published in the latter part of
August, or during the first ten days
OF September. Enclosed please find
two three cent stamps.
Hoping your health has been good |
that our Capital City of the State is

The Missouri Republican thinks
corn culture is everywhere neglected.
1t is rudely planted and seldom fer
tilted. 1t says from forty to sixty
bushels an acre, on bottom lands, are
considered good crops without fertil-
izing; but the same lands may be
made to bring $50 bushels. If corn
in the south received as much atten-
ton as cotton, what a prodigious
quantity would be harvested
Louisiana capitolian., 1881-10-06
ACT-THEN CUss,

4 The st. Bernard Eagle complains 01
the sluggish mail service in that par
ish. The Star Route investigation
gave rise to the suspension Of large
number OF mail lines in the South,
not because they rested under the
ban of any charge, but to deplete the
service and cheaper the postal ex-
penses. The South was perhaps
plucking too much fat from Uncle
Sans ribs. IfPresident Garfield had
lived, we believe this evil, through
the combined efforts of our congress-
! men and the people, would finally
have been remedied. How the new
Executive, and his coadjutors will act,
remains to be seen. Surely his prom
ises are fair enough, and ifthe people
of Louisiana will make an effort, we
believe great deal of good can be
accomplished. Our mail service is
ridiculous in a great many sections
Of the State, and reform lin this re
spect is much needed, but unless in
telligent action, backed by the neces-
sary determination, on the part Of
those concerned is brought to bear,
we may as well make up our minds
to be cOntented at once and forever.
No good can be brought out of the
vitiated carcass of the grumbler, for
the sound Of his complaints never
reach further than the ears of those
within earshot. But effective work
can be done through intelligent agen-
cies, whose steps will be characteri-
zed by frmness, dignity and a proper
appreciation ofthe prevailing circum-
stances.
We believe the entire mail system
in Louisiana will eventually be reor-
ganized, and we suggest the proprie-
ty of every aggrieved neighborhood's
making ready to represent the true
conditions of the service which rem
ders it inadequate to their wants.
Among other complaints that we
have noticed, the st. Bernard Eagle
gives the following interesting pic
ture of the postal arrangements in
that parish:
"With the present state of things,
a letter mailed in New Orleans
on Thursday is delivered only on
the following Tuesday, five days
in transit, and this is due to the alb
sence Of a post-office within twelve
miles of this point. The New Or
leans postal department have placed
a letter-box at the Stock Landing,
which forms part of the city mail
service and is of great convenience
to business men residing in it's imme-
diate vicinity; but unless persons
dwelling in the First and Second
Wards can adopt the unpleasant ex-
pedient of their having their letters
addressed under cover to some one
in this favored neighborhood, a note
may travel through the parish for
week before it again arrives at two
blocks within the spot where it was
first deposited.
