Mr.. Gibbens and his employees would
be commissioned as peace officers and
authorized to arrest and bring to trial
all persons who might behave in a
disorderly or improper manner on
board of his boat. Mr.. Gibbons would
thereupon abandon the temporary
regulations he had adopted, which
have given rise to the complaints con-
tanned in the editorial referred to.
Iwould here state that the DISPOSE
tor. of the authorities and good peo-
pie generally is to, maintain the
kindly relations now existing between
all races and classes and to refrain
from acts which might in any way
disturb such relations.

BATON ROUGE. July IL, 1851.


In view of the above publication |
deem it proper to state, that the terry
boat Irene performs iler service I'M
der a contract given by both the City
Council of Baton Rouge and the Po-
lice Jury of West Baton Rouge, and
that the lessee, Mr.. Gibbons had never,
heretofore, been empowered to arrest
disorderly persons on his boat For
this reason, he has been pOwerless to
control labOrers and others OF both
sexes who frequently, under the in
huence ofliquor, have invaded the
ladies' cabin, where they have not
hesitated to use vulgar and obscene
language in their presence, thus giving
rise to very just complaints from the
good people who are compelled to
cross the river at this point. While
the Irene was plying Bayou Lafourche
recently, Mr.. Gibbons had divided
the ladies' cabin in two compartments
one of which he used as an Office.
Upon the renewal of his contract,
! Mr.. Gibbons restored the Irene to hel
former service as ferry boat and
until he could make arrangements tc
preserve proper order aboard, he die
the best he could, by inviting persons
either to the compartment used as hi
office or to the other. He disclaim
that by so doing, either he or his EN-
plovees have insulted or designed t.
insult any one,
Such is in substance the Statement
made to me, on yesterday, by Mr,Gib
hens, in connection with the com
plant contained in the editorial of tn

After a consultation on the sub]ec
with Mr.. c. j. Barrow, President G

sOUR POLICE JURY.

A perusal of the account OF the pro-
ceedings of the Police Jury OF TINS
parish, published on last Saturday,
will doubtless give great satisfaction
to the people.
twill be seen in President Jack
sons report that all but s24'25 OF the
liabilities incurred by the parish In
1880 have been paid in full, while a
large amount of taxes for that year
are still uncollected. A number OF
substantial bridges have been erect
ed the Jail has been thoroughly over
hauled and repairs made to the court
house; all of which improvements
have been promptly paid for.
The parish can now be said to be
out of its financial troubles, and the
prospects, that under such manage
ment as the present, while improve
ments will be steadily going on, the
Police Jury will be enabled, If the
people pay up their taxes promptly,
to begin to reduce the back indebted
ness and place the affairs of the par
ish of East Baton Rouge on sound,
permanent basis.
They have, besides, passed a practl,
cal road ordinance, which, II 1t Il
heartily obeyed by the people, vii
give US the good roads in the fall
that the parish has needed for, alas
very many years.
Gov. Wilt deserves to be compll
mented for his happy selection OF tn

IL The Herald and Globe persists in
its stupidity ignorant criticisms of the
presidents physicians, and says they
have been treating him for a wound in
the liver, which is not so. They have
treated him precisely as they would
have treated him If they could have
known in the beginning that the liver
was not Injured. The Herald and
Globe still laments that Drs. Agnew
and Hamilton did not have charge of
the case from the beginning. The fact
that both of those distinguished sur
geons approve of the treatment adopted
is sufficient to show that their treat
ment would not have been different.
All the treatment practicable in such a
case is to let nature do its healing work,
meanwhile keeping the wound healthy
by means of antiseptic dressings, and
meeting complications as they present
themselves. The Herald and Globe
intimates that the president has been
"drugged" for a desperate wound Of
the liver. This is another of the utter
ly foolish and unfounded statements for
which the editor of that paper is fa-
nous. The daily bulletins describ-
ing the treatment mention the adminis-
tration of %quinine, which was given for
quite another reason. Aside from this,
there is no ground for the assertion,
unless the hypodermic injection of NOR
phia as an anodyne be one.i We sup
pose nothing better is to be expected
from the Herald and Globe editor, who
deals with facts as a crazy bull would
treat the contents of a china shop, but
we know of nothing more foolish or in
worse taste than these attacks upon the
presidents physicians by a certain Sec
ton of the press.

The Presidents Condition.
1rn OPERATION OF MONDAY.

When the first operation was per-
formed on the president the surgeons
cut directly for the pus cavity and laid
it open. The direction of this was such
that the drainage tubes formed q sort
OF semi-circle around the twelfth rib.
The helling of the wound has gone on
so rapidly that it finally became diff
cult TO keep the channels properly
opened owing to the pressure of this
rib. This was the real reason for the
op ration of Monday. 1t was deemed
important that there should be n
straight channel for the outflow of pur-
ulent matter. The Importance of Keep
ing the wound clean and preventing
any accumulation ofpus cannot be over
estimated. AS n of the attendants at
the bedside of the president said, a
thimbleidl OF pms accumulated in the
wound may prove fatal, and therefore q
free outlet must be maintained at all
hazards. The cutting that was made
Monday by DR.. Agnew was a deeper
and longer one THAI that made before.
1t was outwardly a continuation of the
old cut, but went straight TO its end so
that the new cnannel makes no turning
and cannot be interfered with by a
rib. The physicians state that the op-
Grafton has been attended with the most
desirable results. Because the cut was
to be deeper than the first and because
the surgeons desired to make a more
thorough examination of the PATHOLOGY.
C ! condition of the rib that has been
struck by the ball, the president was
placed under the influence of ether.
The fact that this could be done is also
evidence of the presidents increased
strength. Speaking of this fact, Col.
Rocky well said that, desiring to test the
presidents strength, he said to him,
giving him his hand, GLOW strong are
you, anyway" Upon this the president
grasped his hand with such vigor that
Col. Rockwell was glad to have him re-
llnqulsh his grasp. Those who are
about the president every day deny EN-
phatically that he presents the wasted
appearance that has been reported. He
is comparatively weak and thin, but il
is apparently false that he has fallen
away to skin and bones, as has been
in a New York newspaper. The
physicians state positively that the
president has passed all critical points
thb thCg w uOl iOOh lOT any luftnef
dangerous symptoms. Instead of being
discouraged they are greatly encour-
aged. Sensational reports from WASH
about the presidents condition
and about occurrences at the White
House ought to be received with a very
liberal discount. There is no truth, for
Instance, in the report that there has
1een any disagreement between Col.
and Health Officer Townsend
IS to proposed changes in the plumbing
the White House. DIR. Townsend
offered TO make an examination
n a polite note to Col. Rockwell, and
he latter, after consultation with the
surgeons, decided that no examination
to be made until after the presi-
lent shall be removed. This decision
vas communicated to DIR. Townsend
N note, and these are all the facts on
which is based the story of an open
upture between the two gentlemen,
Who, by the way. hardly know one an-

II Judge jeremiah Black, in a long
interview in the Philadelphia Press, en-
deavors to relieve himself ofthe charge
of favoring the secession movement
when he was in B%uchanan's cabinet,
and declared that he advised measures
concerning the relief of Fort Sumter,
which, if adopted, would have nipped
the rebellion in tie bud, but that Gen.
Winfield Scott was the obstacle in the
way. Considering that judge Black
was q blatant copperhead during the
war, and IN outspoken advocate of
state supremacy since, this attempt TO
whitewash his own career by blackening
the patriot Gen. Scott will not 60 down
very easily. 1t has taken Judge Black
twenty years to decide to let out the Sc
cret of his unsupported patriotism al
such a critical time in our history. No
one can blame Judge Black much, how
ever, for attempting 10 relieve bis name
from the disgrace which attaches to
nearly every member of the last Demo-
cratic administration.
