At the Court House.

A BAzoo scribe yesterday visited the
new court house and was somewhat sur

placing the Furnishings of the two grand
court rooms, while the artists, Messrs.
Pomerade and Hilliker were engaged put
ting the finishing touches upon the dome
inside. The circuit court room, which has
just been completed, is one of the finest
pieces of art work the scribe has ever seen
and the harmony of color and beauty of
the rich frescoing and the grand central
representation of the majesty of the law is
something that must be seen to be ap-
preciated. The side walls of the criminal
court room are not yet done but will be
finished by 10 morrow night it is thought.

rubbish has been commenced and yesier

THE EMEUTE OF THE I4TH
OF SEPTEMBER, 1874.

Though some of the New Orleans
press, this week, have attempted to
impress upon their readers the great
Importance of the bloody emeute,
which, until the arrival Of the Fed
eral troops, brought anarchy upon
the city, and threatened the peace
of the State in September 1874, still
it is evidently realized by them that
its power as political capital has
waned.
The exposure of the true history,
the objects of the leaders, who
originated and directed it, made
public last year by those personally
cognizant of the circumstances
leading to and connected with the
events of that day, when an actor
therein sought, without just claim,
o utilize the events as a stepping
stone TO gubernatOrial hOnOrs, did
much to throw discredit upon it.
Even among the deluded it has since
no longer been viewed, as one of our
contemporaries would have, as
"the ga liant struggle, sanctifying its
cause and givingit au indelible place
in the hearts of the people," but is
realized as having been terrible sac
rifice of life, a foolish, futile attempt
to overthrow established State and
National authority, at the instance
of a few ambitious, weak minded
persons, who were willing to risk the
sacrifice of lives of Drawer men tina
they might enjoy temporary power
and who, ever since, have on al
occasions sought from it political
preferment.
No better proof that the emeut,
has never really met the approval o
the people of New Orleans and tn
State,is shown by the fact that bot
its civil aud military leaders, Lieut.
Gov. ID. B. Penn and Gen. Fred. n
Ogden, though often seeking Sta
and Municipal Office, and claiming
them as rewards for their particips
tons in the affair of the 18th Seq
TENDER, have in every instance bee
: rejected by their own party.
