Feb 81 he dictated a letter to the Chair

ceivei another icttcr from Sanborn, dated
May !. which he also considered so mpertinent
that he requested Sanborn to address him no
further communications upon any subject. ex-
says: notwithstanding this, / received an

The Governors Angry Message-An
Extraordinary Public Document,

Gov. CLEvELAND's first message to the
Legislature Of 1888 exhibited a lamcntable
ignorance OF the political history Of the State
of New York. He may have become more
familiar with that history by this time; but
he will search it In vain for any public docu-
ment 80 III tempered and undignlhed as the
message which he sent to the Senate just
before tho adjournment on Friday.
The Legislature had passed bill to reform
the immigration department at this port.
1t provided for the appointment OF single
Commissioner in place OF the existing Board
OF Commissioners. This appointment was
to be made b. the Governor. with the advice
and consent Of the Senate. Gov. CLEVELAND
nominated WILLIAM ii. MURTHA Of Brook
Ign for the office. Mr. MURrHA bears an ex-
cellent reputation and the nomination was
well received by the press and the people. 1t
did not suit the Republican senators, how
ever. or the three so-calcd Democrats who
represent Tammany Hall in the Senate. On
tho last day Of the session they united In re-
fusing to recall the nomination from the Fl
nance Committee, to which 1t had been re-
ferred when originally sent In. In this way

proportions OF tho women a greater round

proportions Of tho women greater round
ness. Perhaps. too. the large recent in
fusion OF German and Irish blood has con-
trlbuted to the result. At any rate, the
change Is marked. Even In the old days tho
Rtnch caricature had an insufficient excuse,
and was conceived In the English malice OF
that time largely. but now 1t is far away
from the truth Tho American woman IL by
no means scrawny example OF her sex. but
one OF rather exceptional soitncss Of contour.
1t Is surprising. however. to any one who
knows tho tendency OF the English woman
to grow stout toward middle life. to be told
that our women are too plump. and that es-
pccially by a woman from London.

A Terrible Charge.

Some very surprising remarks were made
al the Baptist Ministers Conference last
Monday. Tho Rev. Mr. PorrEB Of the
Sixth Street Baptist Church made use
OF language that may well startle the
managers OF tho Young Mems Chris
tan Association. Hc denounced II as q
humbug-"th grandcst humbu2 in New
York" and it must be admitted that. in
view OF all the humbugs in the city, this is
saying great deal. 1.-The grandcst humbug
In New York" cried the Rev. Mr.. POTTER Of
the Sixth Street Baptist Church. is the As
sociation palace at tho corner of Tween
ty-third street and Fourth avenue" Ac-
cordng to tho Times report. this statement
was approved by several OF tho other breth-
rem at tho Baptist Ministers Conference OF
last Monday. A director OF the Young Mons
Christian Association and professor at
tackled tho Rev. Mr.. POTTER so severely that
at last he was led to say that he had per-
haps been trIno hasty In characterizng
the association in its entirety as a humbug;"
but 1t must bc admitted that this qualiiica-
ton OF the terrible charge originally made
by the Rev. Mr.. POTTER was of very slight
account The Moderator OF the Conference,
however, seized upon the qualifying lam
guage at once, and ended the debate by cx-
claiming: Tho word humbug then, will be
stricken out"
Well. the word humbug may be stricken
out Of the official record. but 1t remains in
the published reports, and has got into the
minds OF the people OF the city.
We do not see that the managers Of tho
Young Mems Christian Association can sit
still under such n sweeping charge as that
Of the Rev. Mr.. POTTER, who is an earnest
and eloquent clergyman OF the great Baptist
denomination, from which are obtained a
large part of the funds that fill the treasury
OF the Young Mems Christian Association.
They must defend themselves against the
accusation. They must disprovc 1t to the
satisfaction OF the tens OF thousands Of minds
in which it has found Judgment II they can
not do this, other assailants OF the institution
will soon be found within the Church.

a colored man named Alex.s employed as
porter at the Peep-O Day Hotel, left here
Thursday evening of last week for the
ostensibIe purpose Of paying brief visit to
his former home in Plaqueniine, saying
he would return next day After his
departure it was discovered that he had
surreptitiously taken his trunk with him, and
had stolen q new dress coat from the vi.lise
of one of the guests. Subsequent inquiry
also revealed the theft of u shirt from
another guest, and the embezzlement of
several small amounts Of money entrusted
to the unfaithful porter to execute commits
sions at the stores in the neighborhood. A
telegram was sent to the Sheriff of Iberviile
on Friday and that official promptly re-
piled that Alex. had been arrested Deputy
Sheriff Means went to Plaquenine on Mon
day and returned next day with the pris-
oner in his custody. Alex. now reposes in
our parish Jail awaiting a day of rec koning
for his crookedness. When we last in
quired NO intelligence respecting the re-
covery ofIthe stolen articles had been
received.

ceived and excursion tickets may be pro-
cured at the Donaldsonvlle depot for 50 25
each, which can be used to return as late as
next Tuesday, the 9TH inst. Delegations OF
twelve or fifteen members from each of our
companies will go down to-day accompanied
by the Independent Band, and q number of
other persons will no doubt take advantage
of the reduced rates to visit the city and
witness tomorrow's pageant, which will be
one of the finest in the history of the New
Orleans Fire Department.. The Hook and
Ladder delegation will be entertained by

will at once meet his expectations and re-
ward his conspicuous merit. Mr.. MeRed-
mond and family took their departure for
New Orleans yesterday. and we are informed
that they will make their future home in

AS will appear from the report of the pro-
cccdings of the Board of Levee Commission
ers for the Fourth District published else
where in to-tlay's CHIEF, q levee tax of five
mills will be assessed upon the taxable
property of the district for the cusrent year.
This is the full limit of taxation which can
be supposed by the Board, and it WAS voted
IN accordance with the report and recon-
mendation of the State Engineers, who de-
clare that the entire amount to be derived
from the tax wiu not only be necessary,
but will be insufficient to cover the cost of
the levee work repaired for the prevention
of crevasses and the protection Of the dis
tuct from overflow.

The NEW RAILRoAD.-Capt. Geo. III. Ran
dali arrived in the fifth ward of this parish
last Sunday morning with q gang Of labor
ers, anil started to work next day in the vi
cinity of the Houmas store grading for the
track of the new Mississippi Valley railway
that is to be extended along the river from
New Orleans to Memphis The road will
cross the Clark plantation just back of the
large pasture on the frcnt of the place, the
plan of the building company being to keep
as near tho river as practicable from New
Orleans to Baton Rouge so as to compete
with the steamboats, for the freight and pas
senger business of the sugar plantations and
riparian settlements between those cities.
Track is laid and construction trains are
running to % point some distance above
kennerville, and the work of building the
road is being pushed forward as rapidly as
possible. This line will undoubtedly prove
a paying one, and will be great convent
ence to the people on the left bank of the
Mississippi.

Business brought Mr.. Henry Mccall to
Donaldsonville on Thursday, and we were
gratiied to see him in the apparent enjoy
ment of his usual excellent health Mr..
Mccall informs us that cane planting on the
Evan Hall place was finished OH Wednesday
The seed was in frst-rate condition and the
supply more than ample, it being found
necessary to infringe upon the land set asRse
for corn i'll order to make use of all the seed
cane. We hear that on both the Evan Hall
and Souvenir places q quantity of stubble
was uprooted to make way for plant, and it
is to be presumed that the same thing has
been done elsewhere, as most of our planters
have more seed than they had calculated
upon putting i'll the ground. The manager
Of Souvenir is furnishing seed cane to sew
eral small farmers in his neghborhood, and
sits has more than is requisite 10 supply his
own needs.
