A Cnrions Jndrment.

A New Orleans Judge has just render
ed a rather remarkable decision in which
he gave judgment against that city for
$4,000, and in favor of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad.
Fifteen years ago when the Louisville
and Nashville road was being built it OBJ
tanned the right of way through Elysiau
Fields street in New Orleans to the river.
In that street there was a railroad sta
ton known as the POnchartrain station,
and belonged to the POnchartrain Rail-
road Company. The road led to Lake Pom
chartrain.
The station was very large structure,
and so Obstructed the street that unless it
were removed the Louisville and Nash
vile road would be prevented from reach
ing the river. AS the station was not be-
ing used, and as the road was rapidly go
ing to decay, the Mayor ordered the sta
ton torn down. The Ponchar.
train Company promptly sued the
city, and it took good care not
to place the amount OF damages
too low. Nothing much was done with
the suit for years, and then the Ponchar-
train railroad and the suit became the
property of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad by purchase. The suit was Their
prosecuted and judgment obtained as al
ready stated. Briefly stated, the city Of
New Orleans ordered a building removed
for the benefit of the Louisville and Nash
vile railroad, and 10 years afterwards
was adjudged to pay to this railroad
$4,000 for having removed the building

The Chicago Tribune says Of the Carroll
ton, Miss, affair: "The majority OF the
Southern papers seek to justify the horri-
BILE work of the mob, and more than one
Northern Democratic paper has sought to
apologize for 1t or to deplore it as a dread
full necessity. While Northern Demo-
cratic editors are keeping silent about it
or apologizing for it, and Southern Demo-
cratic editors are justifying the executive
OF Mississippi for not interfering in the
matter" This statement is VIGOROUSLY
untrue. Not only the press of Missis-
sippi, with few unimportant exceptions,
but that of the whole South has unre.
servedly and severely condemned the

A special from Portland to the New

introduce Chinese laborers in Maine, who
can be had at SO per week, to take the
place of American workmen who get 50
per day in certain line of manufacture,
the Cinnamon to be obtained from San
Francisco 1t is stated that one manu-
facturer refused to entertain the proposi-
ton, but that it is not known how others
will act upon it. The protectionists Of
the East have been loud-mouthed in de-
manding perpetuation of the war tariff
in the interests OF American workmen,
but they have usually been quick to avail
themselves of cheap foreign labor when
they could get it. Now, however, they
will doubtless be too much afraid OF the
boycott TO accept the Chinese scheme.
