Not many moons ago the papers of
New Orleans were almost daily lament
ing the lawlcss condition of that city,
and denouncing the outrages of the
hoodlums and the utter ncflicieucy
of the police.
y few days ago, Tom Boylau, who
for four or five years has been Chief of
the police, rendered his unconditional
resignation. This was accepted with
more than formal regrets by the Acting
Major, Walshe, and nearly every
paper in the city followed with an
article, more or less lengthy, feeliugly
expressive of its regrets and at the
same time praising the matchless vi
GLANCE and efficiency uniformly shown
by Col. BoyIan.

TIE FUTURE OUTLOOK FOR MONROE.

Etyito1' Ictegrul,h:
Why don't some of our monied men
build a nice brick hotel, with modern
improvements? One Of this kind will
pay; two will not. Our hotel men can
not do for our friends as they wish,
with such as they have. We say brick
hotel, because we want to make our
little city attractive, and we want our
friends to feel more safe among us
when they lie down to sleep at night
If we had all brick buildings in our
town, our people would be more Sc
cure, and save money that builds up
insurance companies abroad.
If we are going TO build Monroe up
into a city, the head-centre of North
Louisiana, let's do it. The Rip Van
Wrinkle policy of the past will not do
it. Don't demand things of our officers
act. There is no sense or justice in
such a policy. Let every one of us do
his duty-pay his taxes; sustain and as
sist our officers, and don't ask them to
shoulder all the responsibility of pub
lie affairs. Many of our officers are
paid niggardly salaries, from the Gov
ernor down. He cannot maintain the
dignity of the State on the miserable
pittance allowed him, and the proud
old State of Louisiana, so long under a
corrupt and despotic rule, cannot af-
ford such narrow minded policy.
We want brains to manage our public
affairs, and they are worth money, as
we'll as labor and merchandise.
a broad and liberal public spirit
and fair policy is what is needed. II
we ask men to work for us, and don't
pay them what it is worth, we are not
apt to get the best men, and not apt to
get justice in all cases. 1t is often said
that Shreveport is going ahead of US.
Whose fault is il: Has Shreveport any
advantages of location? With the X.
& a. r. r. and the p. r. r. who will
have the inside track?
Individual enterprise and more pub
lie spirit should be called into play.
The public ferries and the country
roads need better attention. The pro-
ducing classes need a better home mar
ket to encourage the production OF
other growths besides cotton, upon
which the merchants almost solely re-
lying for clerks salaries and the land
lord for rents. Realizing the present
low price of cotton, and the consequent
stagnation in business here, as else
where, it is the purpose of this COM
munication to direct attention to the
vital Importance of providing other
sources of income and of causing earn
est thought, in time, toward the future
prosperity of our little city. a thought
too much can be given the subject.

WHO AND WHAT HE Is.

In several of our exchanges, many
of them of respectability and of eX-
tensive circulation, we notice the
card of one "Rev. Jos. II. Imam"
of New York. Who this individual
is and what his business, may be
gathered from the following, published
in the Agents Herald, a paper pub
to the exposure of advertising frauds ::
OF all base and degrading tricks, that
of assuming "the garb Of Heaven to
serve the devil in" to create confidence
on the part Of unsuspecting and I'M
fortunate persons, is the most atrocious.
| This 1Rev.," who is not Rev. at all,
for Jos. Il. Inman is Il myth, adVertises
himself extensively in home and for
eign, and-we see it with deep regret
many of the religious newspapers of
the land do not scruple to accept his
advertisements, Notwithstanding that
he is well-known as a fraud. He adj
vertises himself as having long labored
in the "beautiful vineyard of God" as
n missionary, and during that time dis
covered a remedy for certain nameless
diseases, by achich he himself was cured
and which he now, from a sense OF
duty to deluded and suffering humani-
ty, will make known, free of chage, to
all who write him. Those who ans
wer his advertisements receive a recipe
but they are also directed that in case
they cannot obtain ingredients at home
which are given a fictitious name
they can purchase them from him al
absolute cost cunning trick, but q
base one, nevertheless. Chemists in
Philadelphia and New York, declare
the names of some of the medicines
given in the "Rev's'' free prescription
to be unknown to them. This proves
that the statements of the "Rev." Jos
II. Inman are utterly false and that
the labor is not a work of charity, but
Il matter of dollars and cents. The pre-
scription filled ssat absolute cost Of
$780," the chemists says is worth about
% cents, and yields the "Rev.?" a
profit of 3,25. They also declare that
it is composed of harmless and in
appropriate drugs.

The city of Baton Rouge is having q
boom on railroads. The Mississippi
Valley and the Louisiana Central rail
road, under an agreement with the
City Council, in which they have been
donated three squares of ground for a
union depot, have contracted to COM
mence work within , months, and the
Louisiana has contracted to Or
ganizc construction camps within two
years. The right ofway along Church
and Front streets has been granted to
the two tirst-namcd roads. This looks
like the Capital of Louisiana has Il real
capital future in view.

While astronomers are raiding through
the heavens with their tell-tale tele-
scopes, conquering new worlds, the
patient railroad hand, with his spade
and shovel, is furnishing material from
the solid earth no less interesting TO the
student and the thoughtful. The fol-
lowing relates to some remarkable dis
coveries made recently in grading the
New Orleans and Northeastern rail
road:
Recently, the laborcrs excavated a
fossil tree wich was found in a cut
thirty feet deep on the hills adjoining
Wolf Greek. The trunk was that of a
oak or hickory tree, thirty feet in
length by eighteen inches in diameter.
An Indian mound was also cut into
and number of skeletons found, but
the laborers unfortunately broke them
in pieces with their Shovels and picks
before Mr.. Nicholson was aware that
they had reached the mound. The
remains were undoubtedly those of
Indians, but of what tribe or when
buried is unknown.
The skeletons were found in the
upper portion of the mound, which
would lead one to infer that they were
placed there at comparatively recent
date in Indian history. Other huma n
remains, with implements of war, de-
posted centuries ago, are supposed to
be in the lower portion of the mound
Whether excavations will be made for
the purporc of unearthing these in the
interest of science, or whether tho
further contents of this Indian tomb
will be allowed to remain untouched,
it is impossible yet to say.
Fortified wood has been found in
grading the Shreveport road west OF
this, but none, we believe, at so great
a depth as so feet, nor any only in
detached pieces.

4 MAD COMMITTEE.

The House committee appointed to
inspect the Mississippi river improve
mcnts is fastening from its rise at Gin
cinnati to its setting at New Orleans,
without hardly giving the fellows with
bce-gum hats and gOld-hcadcd canes
at the cities along the rive: n chance to
drive them around town and give
them a dinner ut the expense OF the
cities aforesaid. There is Indignation
ut Memphis and Helena, and Nicks-
burg is scornful, with her harbor, and
didn't want to see them any how.
Natchcz, Baton Rouge and New Or
leans are to be heard from. The
Herald, of Nicksburg, however, lets it
leak out what may be expected, as fol-
lows:
New Orleans has appointed three or
four committees to meet the Congress
men on the Guiding Star, but if the
congressman are in as big a hurry in
New Orleans as here, the committees
had best conduct them TO the depot.

II may seem strange that nearly
every Mississippi river pilot who has
testified before the Congressional River
committee gives it as his opinion that
none OF the work done on the river has
oeen OF any service, except the putting
up oil lights and the removal of snags.
Why did the old blinkies make that
exception? Because it reduced their
labor.
