current on the streets this evening
to the effect that company has been
organized, under the name of the
wharf improvement company, for the
purpose of supplying needed wharf
facilities by the construction of iron
piers. to beextended out to deep water,

names or figures are mentioned in con-
nection with the enterprise, but it

prominent in Louisiana politics dur
ing the Kellogg and Warmoth regime

day. Presenting himself at the depot

berth in a sleeping car for Tyler,

Mr.. Miller, the ticket agent.
He finally forced his way into the
sleeping car, declaring his intention of
occupying berth anyhow. He was
ordered out of the car by the con-
ductOr, but as the train pulled out he
was seen standing on the rear plat
form of the sleeping coach.
At about eleven o'clock this morn
ing fire was discovered in the cotton
room of Messrs. Scarborough & Co.,

one was in the room at the time of
the discovery of the fire, and its origin
is a mystery. The occurrence is re-
garded as strange, and an investigation
is going on by. the police. An insig-
niticant fire broke out in a school
house for negroes, in the east end of
the city. to-day.
A drayman named Jack Murphy

TIE VIRGINIA- nuEI..

Political factions In Virginia are becoming
intoleTant and vindictive. Malone, who has
rapidly developed under the training of Re-
publican Administrations from pustule to
listuls, is exhibiting remarkable irritating
powers. A demsgcgne and bastard, he ex-
cites loathing. but having spoils at his com
mand he has followers Those who have
seen swine follow a corn-fed OK along high
way will comprehend at once Mahone's posi-
ton and power in Virginia politics 1t is
easily understood why such a creature as
Malone should be distssteful to
men of honor in Virginia. He is
a Republican by purchase. He votes
with the Republicans tor consideration.
II the Republican Administration will sup
rly him with spoils he will wear the Repub-
lican collar like dog. Deprive him of the
power to bestow spoIls and he sinks to
fathomless contempt in an instant. 1t is not
surprising that such a dwaTfsh burlesque
upon humanity, at once al insult and dis
grace to Virginia, should be exposed by
every manly editor in the Old Dominion.
This Mr.. Beirne was IN the habit of doing.
Ar. Elan being q follower of Malone re-
gsrded it az his duty 20 defend his master,
and in doing 50 applied the most
opprobrious epitbets to Mr.. Beirne, calling
him a liar, and distinctly intimating
that Beirne had not the courage to resent the
insult in other words, Mr.. Elan denounced
BeiTne as liar and coward. In dealing
with such an outrage Mr.. Beirne had the
ChCice of three methods He could pocket
the insult and wear the stigma he could
prepare himself and bave a street fight. kill
lis enemy or get killed. or he could send
challenge and fight duel. The first meth
cd could not be thought OF for n minute in
Virginia; the second is esteemed vulgar
