The following opinion of rats, is
expressed by our friend Cosgrove of
the VindicatOr. We refer it to all
whom it may concern, particularly
our uneasy confreres of the Advocate
and Sugar Planter:
"The Baton Rouge Capitolian has
started new field of thought for
summer recreation. 1t says:
What's your opinion OF rats ?" is
the query that CAPIToLIAN repor-
ter has been instructed to submit to
prominent property holders OF Baton
Rouge. He will start out on Monday
next. We give due warning to the
to-be-interviewed in order that they
may furnish racy opinions.

query at this distance from the scene
of operations. There is yellow ter.

THE END OF THE WORLD.
: New Orleans Times,

New Orleans Times,
Prof. Ignatz Worrenzofski, Phi. D..
of the Astronomical Observatory of
Bulgaria and a-Pesth Bucharest,
and royal astronomer of Bengal and
Trincomalee, passed through New
Orleans last week, on his way to the
astronomical station at Archangel via
the Southern Pacific Railroad. He
was travelling incog., but during his
short stay in the city, interviewed by
representative Of the Times, he gave
his views on the present crisis in the
affairs of the solar system, and the
grave apprehensions entertained of
an approaching catastrophe, mainly
as follows:
500 you think, Professor, that the
crash will come on the 2lst of June,
as Proctor and Mrs. Shipton say"
"My friend, one cannot say. For
myself think not. 1t depends on
Hilda.N
"WhO is Hilda ?"
"Hilda is an asteroid outside the
orbit of Mars. My dear sir, she is lost
All astronomers are agitated on the
subject. l go to Arehangel to look
for her. If | find her not, then
the professor pat on a very solemn
look-"then she has fallen into Mars.
"Well, so on if you please"
"Then Mars is DETECTED from his
orbit by his increased parallax from
the centrifugal apogee, and the aphel
len and perehelion of the Nebula, &C
cording to Grimson's law, will cause
Mars, by his increased mass, to at
tract all the other asteroids as 1t
crosses their orbit. There are $50 o

BAD POLICY.

We published few days ago, an
interview had with President Vince
lock, relative to the branch railroad
to Baton Rouge, in which he is re-
norted to have said, "if Baton Rouge
won't facilitate us we, have but one
thing to do and that is to establish
our permanent depot across the rlVer'
BIZ constructing the necessary
wharves, the steamboats,, mail boats,
ETC., will come to transact thelf
business with us there as they Would
elsewhere. He couldn't well under
stand why the coal yard objected to
having the railroad and transfer boat
near them, where they might be daily
purchasers. Then the employees ana
laborers about the depots and trans
fer boat would necessarily spend their
wages where they resided Surely
Baton Rouge would not wish to give
that to the opposite shore"
The Baton Rouge Advocate, winch
has rather sided with tie opposition
to the demands Of the railroad Tor
certain facilities for landings and de-
oots within the limits of the corpora
ton. admits the danger which threat
ems the town if the terminus OF the
road is located or the opposite side OF
the river, and advises the citizens TO
consider the points made by COL
Wbeelock. The Advocate is not III
favor of a transfer Of rights, because
it saws it "may conflict with the tram
chises of some future company, which
will eventually, at no distant day,
construct a line Oh that side OF the
river But why should the people
of Baton Rouge or the Advocate be
SO solicitous for the interests OF an
imaginary company which has no ae-
tual existence and is without any I'M
mediate prospect Of vitality or orsa-
nization?
- IL,
Why not aid the company which
has built road within ten miles OF
. the town and give it that encourage
ment which it deserves, and even q
preference over any other contem'
plated line, the construction OF which
will be fastened by the early COM
n'etion of the New Orleans Pacific
branch. The fact that this road il
obliged to cross the river makes
absolutely necessary that it shouI'
q have certain privileges on the rive
front that road runningon the towl
side would not require. Hence w
