The Opera House subscriptions

Capt. JnO. White. The question
of q site, satisfactory to all, is now
the real nut to be cracked. How
any Improvement could he sng-
gested over the original PROPOSE
ton Of the old Opera house site
is an enigma. 1t IS centrally
situated, ample in capacity, and
no environments Objectionable to
the patrons of the house. To un-
dertake to arrange the building
80 as to accommodate business
houses under IT, is possibly a
mistaken policy, for such bust
ness places will have 20 stand an
abnormal insurance rate. This
makes the stand undesirable to a
tenant carrying heavy lnsurable
stock and deDreciatcs the rental
value. The old opera house suf
fered an all but prohibitive rate
and il one of the reasons why it
burned without insurance. TO
locate it in a congested block
means to increase the insurance
risk on the adjoining buildings
and contents. None Of these dis
advantages prevail on the first
site suggested, initiating neither
against the proposed opera house
nor the adjoining properties to
any great degree.

Daily Leader Aug,
New Ib .rla's first real dlrec-
tory is now being dis.ribn ed
by lis publishers, Messrs Bcnsrl
and Willard, and it is really Il
very c'editab!e work. Consider
ing that it is the FIRST work OF
the kind attempted here there
are remarkably few errors or
omissions and it is therefore a
valuable book for reference.
The book contains $50 pages
of winch 1870 are devoted TO
names alone incln.ting the bust
ness directory which in itself rs
valuable. This section alone fills
eight pages closely printed and
is an exhibit of the commercial
activity of the city.
In the descriptive part of the
book the history OF the city is
given in a brief and readable
form and All idea is conveyed of
the future possibilities that might
prove attractive to the northern
capitalist were he placed in
possession of the facts.
According to the information
furnished in this directory there
are fifty-four thoroughfares with :
in the limits of the city. The
number Of houses is not furnished
but it is probable that will be
included in the census that is
to come later. The Appendix
shows that there are five educa-
tional institutions here outside
of the public schools. two bands,
three banks. churches, one
club, II Incorporated companies,
three newspapers, and fifteen
lodges connected with the vari-
Gus secret societies.
The publishers OF the director
say, "The city Of New Iberia
covers an area OF about two
miles square and it's inhabitants
are progressive, up-tO-date, cour-
teons and hospitable, ever ready
to welcome the stranger who is
seeking d home IN their midst
and 70 aid him in establishing
in this section, where nature has
been so lavish in the bestOwal Of
her choicest gifts"
Altogether the directory is a
very creditab)o publication and
copies of it should be on view
IN the principle hotels of the
United States where it would
without doubt attract attention
to this city.
