PARIS, Aug. 20.-Gen. Boulanger wa
elected to the chamber of deputies from
three departments yesterday. Besides
Somme, where he received majority
of 34,7 723 votes, he was successful in
Charente and the Nord, receiving in the
former majOritya of 1860 and in the
latter, majority of 3,5S5. at Amiens,
the capital of the department of Somme,
there was riOting at the polling places
during the whole day. The disturb
ances continued at night until midnight.
when the military were called out and
were compelled to charge the people at
the
POINT OF THE BAYONeT,
in order to clear the streets. Similar
scenes were witnessed at Lille, the
capital of the department of the Nord,
and fourteen arrests were made.
Gen. BOulanger is preparing mani
festo thanking the electors of Somme,
Charente and the Nord for voting for
him. When he has finished it he will.
go into the country for rest. He is re-
ceiving thousands of kilograms to-day
cOngratulating him upon his success.
Numerous bouquets have also been
sent to him.
PRESS COMMENT.
Republican papers declare that Gen.
BOulanger'S success in the elections
yesterday was caused by the Reaction
aries, who lacked the courage to adj
vance candidates of their own. The
Republique Franchise holds the In
transigeant, M. ROchefort's paper, and
the Radicals responsible for the result
of the elections. The Conservative
journals state that the vote which
elected Gen. Boulanger was directed
against the republic

explains the reason for this to be largely
the suicidal policy that the transcontin-

nourished by cheap rates. The southern
roads knew this, and when an advance
on California was made were not slow to

is q large and first class hotel, adapted

how such hotel Can ba obtained here.
New Orleans has made but little i'm

Of hotels; indeed, we have gone back
ward rather than forward, and have
actually fewer than we had two years
ago. No new hotel hay been built
here for years, none specially adapted
for the travel which We are trying TO

a million dollars or more have gone
up in nearly all the Florida tow MS,
while Savannah, Thomasville and
other Southern cities arc constructing
or propose to construct magnificent
hotels on the newest aud best plans
and with all the latest improvements,
New Orleans has been satisfied to re-
main where IL was thirty years ago,
or rather to 60 back ward, for since the
closing OF the City Hotel, we have less
accommodation than ever before,
The present hotels Of New Orleans

How Fractional Currancy Came TO b
Used.

Gen. Francis L. Spinner. formerly
Uui.ed States Treasurer, gives In let.
ter to gentleman in Jacksonville,
Fla. the history OF the fractional cur.
rency issued during the war of the re.
bellion:
uWhen all the silver had been paid
out of the Treasury Of the United
States carly In 1862 I procured from
the Postoff}ce Department quantities Of
postage stamps for the purpose
of making change. To facilitate the
making q change I had the stamps
pasted on slips of paper so as to make
rs ana so cents. This was done after
Blair, thon Postmaster-Gene that
he would redeem them In that condt-
tion la postage stamps. 1t was soon
found that this mode Of procedure was
impraclicabie. then persuaded the
Postmaster. General 10 procure tho
engraving and printing of fac similes
OF the postal compound postage stamps.
These the treasury bought from the
Postmaster-Ge General under an agree
| ment that the Postofilce Department
would redeem them. This was what
was called postal currency Inclosed
herewith you Will hnd sample Of this
kind of currency. You will Dot:ce that
It was made redaemable in postage
stamps only. The Postmaster Cen
erat soon became tired Of the addition
al care, responsibility aud labor that
the Issuing and redemption of this
currency threw upon his office, and he
urged that the treasury should relieve
him from it. 1 then procured the
passage OF a low by Congress for the
printing Of q currency which would
represent the fractions Of the dollar.
These were engraved aud printed Ia
denominations OF three, five, ten, IF.
teen, twenty-five and fifty-cent notes,
and, In contradistiuction to the postal
currency, were called fractional curren-
CD, and were redep mable for all govern.
ment dues.

Sectional Folly.

Sulne weeks ago, the final arrange.
ment- were completed by q Western
syndicate for the purchase and trans
fer to Chicago Of the old Libby Prison,
to be used AS dime museum aud
exhibited as a curiosity. The mon
who vent into the project evidently
thought that there was enough Sec
ttonal bitterness left in Chicago and
the Northwest to make this peculiar
.iuvestmen pay. We are glad to know
that this ia altogether improbable.
The Chicago Tribune Is hostile aud
bitter enough against the South, yet
even 1t regards this project as folly,
and says:
The ineffable folly of bringing the mate
rials OF the old Libby Prison to Chicago to
be rebuilt here seems to havc been con-
summAted. The investo ors in all probability ,
will lose all tho money they have put into
the scheme and no ono Will syfnpathize
with them. II the prison were to be re-
moved at all 1t should have been taken to
Philadelphia, or New York, or Boston
where it might have aroused some interest
among the morbidly curious, for tho reason
| that Eastern troops were confined In IL. II
can have no local interest here, as 1t has nc
| associations connected with Illinois troops
| Under any circumstances the proper thing
! to have done was to let the old tobacct
| warehouse remain on tho banks OF the
James.
| 1t is some consolation to know tba
the men who expect TO make money
out of sectional bitterness are likely Il
lose heavily by this investment, a
they certainly deserve to do.
