that settlers on railroad lands sub

THE CARNIVAL.

Ehe peculiar festivities for which
the week proceeding Lent has been
long distinguished in our State, es
pecially 10 New Orleans, bid fair to
exceed il exuberant fantacy, parade
andgeneral enjoyment, any previous
carnival.
The mysterious notices appearing
~ the press, and fantastic missiveS
scattered among residents and vi
sitors from abroad; the replacing
Of temporary seats ON balconies; the
unusual early and numerous arrival
Of strangers, all bespeak this,
With the enjoyment of the occa
sion tits to be hoped somepermalent
good will be reached.
May, of the numerous throng OF
strangers, some be induced to remain,
from the attractiveness of climate,
soil and opportunities of successful
buSin IS.
The managers of the Centennial
will have opportunity to create an
interest in the success OF their Gu
terprise. The members of the nu-
merous commercial bodies, as well
as all business men, while entertain
ing the visitors of pleasure may
make their guests well wishers and
aiders in measures Of practical
benefit to the City and State.
The events Of the next twelve
months are bound to determine
whether New Orleans, with her
manifold aud increasing advantages
is to become really a great pros.
porous City, or to remain, notwith
standing these aids, a poor unpros
porous, misgoverned City. She has
within her population many eptr
getic, enterprising citizens; men whc
are doing everything within Their
power to build up hertrade, improve
her government, incre her popu
lation and ealth. 1t is equally
! true, however. that an incubus,
! arising from bad administrator d
public affairs, aud the almost entire
absence of the enforcement of Grim
inal laws, presses heavily upon hpl
people, rendering more difficult tht
efforts Of these true citiz6ns.
And what is 50 strikingly tru .
New Orleans is more or less true ..
the other portions Of the State.
May the increased spirit in which
the festivities of this carnival are
being enjoyed result in increased
energy and iseetfort for permanent
Improvement in all matters apper
taining to well governed and pros
nerOuS. society.
