IT is recalled by some one that Captain Eads,
the builder of the ietties at the mouth Of the
Mississippi and of the great bridge at st.
Louis, predicted the gradual changing Of the
channel of the Mississippi through the Atcha-
falaya river, whencei it would find its way to the
gulf, leaving New Orleans situated some dis
lance from any navigable stream on the banks
of lagoon. This prediction is recalled by
the alleged fact that the mouth of Red river
has become almost impossible on account of
the small amount of water that passes through
it and the want of water in the Mississippi
channel. It was thought at the time it was a
scheme on the part of the engineer to get an
other job, as he suggested, in connection with
the fate that overhung the Crescent City, that
he could remedy the matter for considera-
ton. With New Orleans miles from the Mis-
sissippi, and Buffalo an inland town by sew
eral weary leagues after the falls of Niagara
have got in their work of tearing away the
rocks over which they pour, the map of this
Republic will have to be changed. For this
reason there is every excuse for firing out
any map peddler that shows his nose in your
house Who wants map with Buffalo and
Lake Erie together when they are so soon to
be divorced, and with New Orleans seventeen
miles from its true locationP

PLEASING reunion took place by accident
at Lafayette, on Monday recalling the vicis-
STUDIES of slavery days, and the unhappy con-
dition of the victims of unrequited servitude.
Thirty three years ago colored man named
George MONTY was taken from his parents, in
Southampton county, Virginia, and sold to
another master, so that he never reioined
them. From that day until Monday last he
never saw anything of them. In time he
escaped from slavery, enlisted in the Union
army, and finally drifted North, as did so
many Of his race when the chaine of slavery
were broken. He took up residence in Lafay-
cite, and on, Monday, by the merest chance
met his sister, who was accompanied by his
mother and her husband the father of the
two having died. 1t is impossible to picture
the joy of that reunion. Arrangements are
now making by which the reunited family
will take up residence near each other The
good old days of Democratic slavery having
gone forever, it is not likely that they will
again be torn asunder till death comes to
divide those who love each other. Freedom
is a precious possession.

A CHINESE Sunday-school teacher in New
York city has written al open letter to the
press to deny the assertion made by the police
that there is no gambling in Mott street
among his fellow-countrymen. He further
declares that the police are bribed to keep
hands off the jpiquities practiced there, and
that one police captain receives each week the
sum of $240 to allow the gambling to go on.

ization and that spirit of Christianity which

ONLY last week Delegate Barry, of the
Knights of Labor, talked loudly about what
two million workingmen were going to accom-
plish in the way of bringing the Chicago
packers to terms. If they couldn't do it, Mr.
Barry thought they would at least be able to
drive the trade elsewhere. This week Dele

TRAVELLING BEHEMOTHS,

1t is announced that the American Opera
Company has taken the road for the season,
composed Of no less than three hundred and
fifty persons, including IAN even hundred
ballet girls" and one hundred and twelve
chorus girls. 1t is coming tc be the thing to
carry great number of people with the at
fractions that expect to charge big prices
for seats, and not always with regard to
dramatic or operatic merit This craze will
have to have its run, and it will not be long
one, unless more attention be given to talent
than mere numbers in the aggregation.
Take the case Of the Margaret Mather COM
pany. There were enough people engaged to
make great show, if size alone be considered
yet the hoi polloi connected with it, the
people supposed to represent the inhab-
itants of the towns in which the plot is laid,
were so badly coached in their duties that
they coldly stood by when murders were
committed, and saw dead bodies dragged off
with as little emotion as though some
burgher were hauling away lot of cabbages
and then, again, when it came time for an
other tragedy, committed by some other
member of the aggregation, this same mob
would incontinently set up yell that would
pierce the very heavens, and only because
they were told to at that time and We're not
told to at the other. This is all wrong If
it is expected of stage mob to roll up their
eyes and do the horror cry at one murder,
why not at anotherg 1t is possible that the
American Opera Company-the stars of
which are not all American, we believe-will
be better than any other organization because
of the fact that it has larger membership,
but it is hard to realize that IAN even hun
dred ballet girls viii dance any better or
make any more generous display of lower
limbs than could half that number. The
danger in getting together such large num-
Der of dancers is in acquiring many that

The President refuses to see Senators and
Congressman who call upon him previous to
the meeting of Congress in regard to ap-
pointment OF their respective constituents to

markable statement that applications iSr office
do not constitute important business. The
President evidently realizes that he is between
the devil and the deep sea. If he deals out the
Offices as his party demands, his dear friends,
the mugwumps let him know that they are

they may cease to love him if he does not de-

HENRI RocHEFoRT, the fiery editor of the
Paris Intransigeante, is not at all sentimental
over the death of the English jockey, Fred
Archer. Referring to the fact that his death
was so universally mourned in British sporting
circles, he says
England is in tears. The same men who
look on with indifference while the Irish farmers
unable to pay their rents. are driven from their
homes and the patriots who defended them are
hanged; the cockneys who applaud the lombard
ment of Alexandria, the massacre of New Yea
landers and the determination of Indian races,

their spouses. legitimate or otherwise, who dis

fall? He was uglier than an ape. with teeth
like the hoofs of the horses he rode; but he
seemed TO them adorable when he stuck his
spurs into the belly of the mare on which he
rode first past the winning post"
Henri must have bet heavily on the losing
horse when Archer went under the wire ahead
of his competitors on more than one occasion.

Yesterday afternoon Mr. Murphy claimed to
the press representatives that the commissioners
were the same now ss ever in wanting every law
enforced and it was his desire that the high
toned volator be proceeded against first. He
said considerable more in the same vein, which
will be given little attention by the public in
view of what has been witnessed in this city for
several months past. 1t will dawn upon the av-
erage observer in this connection, however, THAI
as the board has placed upon record a resolution
to the effect that ODonnell has ''conscientiousiy
done his duty" the non enforcement of the law
has been due to the Commissioners and not TO
his neglect. and that any attempt to unload the
responsibility upon the acting superintendent 10
simply a subterfuge.
