Trouble win tho Policy NE.


The pc icy men OF this c ity are bav
ing season OF trouble and tribulati ID,
aid some Of the hackers no doubt feel
like hemoaning their fate in sackcloth
and ashes. For several weeks past the
iates seem to have comspirsi against
them, and they have had season Of
hard luck, everything seeming to 90
against them. Hits upon hits have been
made, depicting the backers' pockets,
until last week heavy stroke came,
when they were hit for nearly 1900,
aud before they had made MP their
minds TO pay the fortunate oneF, they
were paraly zed by hits for nearly 81, 600
more
This occurred yesterday, and when
the fact became known it created the
greatest CONSERVATION among the
| sharks, who have became 30 accu stoned
to raking in the pennies of many who
needed them for bead, that they never
dreamed for . moment that such
q calamity would overtAke them. Two
OF the hackers were in favor OF OF pay
ing all the hits without anyioontroversy
but they were warned by those whowert
unwilling to pay, that II they did, they
should not carry on the business in the
future In this city. as they would EN-
ploy parsons to inform on and prose
cute them.
The matter stands In that condition
at present, consequently those who
have made hits are considerably ex citeC
rs there Is every prospect that they will
lose their Investments. Several of tn,
policy dens have been surrounded b.
excited crowds OF victims, aud An 81
tempt was made last Saturday night Il
thrash one of the hackers
IL 10 probable that the events of tn
past two weeks will have the effect &
closing some Of the shops In this city
as many of their patrons will refuse {
play, If the present hits are not paid
while on the other hand, the hacker
who are unable or I'm uiliing 10 pa
them will certainly denounce those VII
do.

The great<New Orleans weather
prophet has made the following
forecast of the weather for that
locality during the month of April.
AS the same will apply in a meas
ure to this portion of the State, we
give it here:
The indications for April are that
you will have some unusual hot wea-
Their at New Orleans in April. There
will be two hot and two cold spells
during the month. The first three days
will lie like summer, and from the Sd
to the 9th showery and rainy; from
the 6tl, to the 18th clear and bright,
with cold northwest winds, and from
the 18th to the 18th you will have the
warmest weather of the month. On
or about the 18th u heavy storm will
form in the Gulf of Mexico, and from
the 18th to the 22d you. may look for
cold northeast wind and unpleasant
weather, followed by heavy thunder
showers, when it will clear off warm.
aud will remain warm aud pleasant to
the end of the month. think that
you will have very pleasant month
as whole, excepting few days.
