Texas and Mexico are commencing to
realize the fact that their interests arc
Identical. Tho old spirit of hate Is glv
ing place to one of kindness nnd frater
nity. In the railroads that arc designed
to Join the prosperous State and the pro
gressivc Republic, the citizens of both
sides ol the ltio Grande sec a link of iron
that is to create trade and tralllc mill
clent to enrich tho Inhabitants of both
Texas and Mexico. The lattcr's trade
and wealth, which has sought other mar
kets, through numerous and expensive
avenues, will bo diffused by the railroads
of Texas, making a speedy and remu
nerative return (o (lie dealer and
trafficker. For years the UIo Grande
frontier has been a Eourcc of trouble to
the United States and Mexico. When
the first train of cars crosses (lie turgid
and rapid current of the frontier river, It
will carry with It the ubiquitous Yankee
who will push the desperado into the
river with the remark that he has no time
to fight ; and when It returns it will bring
back the polite Mexican gentleman who
has only seen the. rougher elements of
our American civilization clad in buck

Religious Art.
The Atomic Theory of Lucretius.
The Poetry of Alfred Tennyson.
The Etruscans and their Language.
The Boarding Out of Pauper Orphans.
Modern Necromancy.
Isaac Casaubou,
Contemporary Llteratuie.
The oblcct of the essay on "Religious
Art," Is to ascertain "the truth about tho
relative positions, attributes, and powers
of art and godliness." On the ground
that art is the labor ol human bauds,
whereas ''religion is an aspiration of the
aoul," of which the bauds aro ignorant,
It Is contended that art cannot be relig
ious. "One great aim of Lucretius. lu the Dc
Ittrum Kaiuru, vaf to set forth the selcn
title truths of Ibu llmo ; uml Hit vuluu lu
the eyes of science now lleslu Its full and
exact statement of :m ancient theory
which the latest experiments confirm."
The Atomic Theory, which tho present
article fully explains, did not originate
with Lucretius, but is attributed to Kpl
cuius, and was taught by Dctiibcrltus,
who died d. c. 350. Tho creed ot Lucre-
ttui U pronounced to be substantially tho
same as that ot the modern materialist.
Article III. begins wlthuicvlcw of
"Quen Mary," and branches off Into a
notice of Tennyson's other poems, their

Present His Honor Mayor Winter
and Aldermen llalliday, Lancaster. Nel
lis, Parker, liitlenhoii-e, Saup. Thlstlc
wood, Wright and Vccum 'J.
The Finance Committee, who wore in
structed to consult witli some legal latent
in reference to tho authority of the city
to incur further Indebtedness, reported
tlic following communication Irom Hon.
J.M. I.ausdcn, which, on motion of Al
derman Wright, Avas received and or
dered filed:
To tlie Honorable Mayor unit City Council of the
city oi Cairo :
Gkntm'.mux : Having been requested
by your l'lnancu Committee to give an
opinion concerning tho authority ol tlie
council to provldu means for thu build
ing of a levee or embankment, in thu
westerly part of the city, I beg leave to
submit tlic following :
lu tlic first place, 1 shall assume, that
thu work, or improvement, is conceded
to be, in thu highest degree, necessary ;
that It concerns not only thu general
welfare of the city, but that Its very exist
ence, as ii city, is, to no small extent,
involved in the matter.
But great as the emergency is, loudly
as thu necessity or hutlnet ot self-picser-A'atlou
calls for action, corporations un
like individuals or uaturu persons, must
looic lor tiicir authority to act, and mid
lug none, can tako no action,
liad this accident or casualty occurred
or been i" contemplation last bummer,
when vo annual appropriation oiii was
madu up and passed, you would have no
doubt provided for thu expense of the
contemplated work or improvement, just
as you inereiu proviuuii lor other ex
penses and liabilities to bu incurred or to
accrue during tlie coining year.
There can be but littlo doubt but that
you would have had tlie right (o have
embraced among tho various items of
that appropriation bill an item for llio
erection or repair of levees. For sub
division ill! ol Section 1, Article 5, of the
act ot incorporation L'lvcs you tlie power
"lo erect and keep In repair public land
ing places, wharves, docKs and levees."
Thu uxpendiluro although madu nec
essary by casualty or accident, and
although occurring lor thu first time
under such circumstances, would not bu
uuliko many of the other expenditures of
Ihu city heretofore made, and
hereafter to bu made. It is not uu
llko that lor 1 1 in constructing
and repairing of sidewalks, grading
and tilling of sheets, keeping out, or
prusei vlng ttiu city irom slpo water, and
so lorlh tho question always being, is it
a corporate purpose? doc ft concern thu
general wellaiu of tlie city?
The constitution authorizes thu Gen
eral Assembly to vest "cities, town and
villages with power to maku local im
provements by special assessment or by
special taxation of contiguous property,
or olhowise."
The act of Incorporation under Avhleh
thu city Is now organized, lu pursuance
of this constitutional provision, gives
you the power to make local improve
ments by special assessment or by special
taxation, or both, of contiguous prop
ci ty, or general taxation, or otherwise,
as you shall by ordinance prescribe.
Under lids power you have, tlmo after
time, been making local improvements,
making contracts, Incurring liabilities,
uml that too, without any refereueo to
thu limit ol our general city Indebted
ness ; and properly so, wu think; for
although the city, by such contracts,
hinds ltslf forthu payment ol money,
and otherwise Incurs liabilities thereby,
yet such corporate action cannot bo re
garded as Increasing the Indebtedness ol
the city within thu meaning of thu prohl
bltlouoftliu 12th section of article 0 of
tlic constitution.
Moreover, under tho constitution and
Ihu act of Incorporation, von havo thn
ht to maku local Improvements
hy general taxation, and llio local lnr
provement, in any particular
ease, need not ho upon anvstieei. nvomm
or other public plaeo of thu city; It may
bu situated anywhere lu the city, pthaps
even beyond Iherlly limits; I lie sole ques
tion iieintr, as above stateu, is it n cor
porate purpose? Is It a matter which con
cerns tho general welfare? If It Is, then
tho authority hi thu constitution mid act
of incorporation clearly extends to It.
l nc AvorK in question isaiocai im
provement and can he made by either of
the methods provided lu the act of Incor
poration; ami n maiio oy general taxa
tion, how could It be said to be Increasing
the indebtedness of tho city any more
than if made by special assessment or
special taxation? In bolli cases the city
incurs liability : but in the very act of In
curring liability the means for discharg
ing mo same areaiuiu same nine pro
Aided for. In both eases, when the work
is Cordcred, the ordinance specifies
whether It Is to be made uy special as
sessment or by special taxation of con
tiguous property or by general taxation.
ii uic Avon; wreio no none uy special
assessment, the usual steps would be
taken and ihea'scssinents collected either
for the payment for tho Avork directly or
to reimburse thu city for Avhat It may
have paid on account thereof.
If the AA'ork were to be done by general
taxation the ordinance would so provide,
and the cost of the Improvement would
he added to thu general appropriation
hill ol thu city, ami bo levied and
collected with and as a part of the
general (axes of the city. See section
1(1. article 0 of the act of Incorporation.
It seems to me clear that an ordinance
can bo adopted, providing for Hie making
oi tuts improvement, speeiiying its char
acter, locality, description, etc., and re
quiting the same to bo made by general
taxation, In which case the estimated
cost ol the improvement would bo added
to, or embraced in, your next annual ap
propriation bill.
Bui, to take another Aiew of tlie case,
theframerx ot the act of liieornoratloii
seem to luivo had lu iiiiud emergencies
not unlike (his Avhen thev drew tho act.
For while hedging round and
notccling the people irom caro
us and hasty expenditures.

dci v a iwo-iiunrs A'ote anv improve
ment too necessity of which is caused bv
any ca-ualty or accident hapnciiinir
alter such annual appropriation bill is

I Ins section invest ho council the lk-ht
to order such an improvement and by
like vote to direct thu mayor and finance
ommltlco to borrow a sull elenl amount
to piovlde for the expctiso necessary to
be incurred in inaklmr thu s.inie lor a
space of time not exceeding the tioc of
the next iiscal year, wliieh sum and llio
interest shall bu added to thu amount
to be raised lu tho next general tax lew
mil embraced theiehi.
Tills authority is full and clear and is
stiietly applicable to Hie matter now he
lore you.
1 lie ordinance, in sueli case, should fix
the amount to he borrowed, tho noteot
interest, ilctho llmo for the payment of
ine amount borrowed not to c xtend be
yond the first day of .May, 1S77, the end
of the next fiscal vear.
What I have said above concerning the
prohibition contained In Section 11, Art!
cloy, of the constitution is equally appli
cable, It seems to me, to the present view
of the matter.
It could at most be called bid an appro
priation of the revenues ol the city to be
collected, an anticipation of the samu
which courts have not regarded as creat
ing or increasing thu Indebtedness reter
red to in such constitutional provisions.
A very similar question recently .arose
iq tlie city ol Chicago concerning thu
making of temporary loans, (he same to
bu taken up or paid oil' by taxes subse
ouontlv collected. 'J'iie opinions ol the
counsel to tlieeltvamla number of other
able lawyers weie taken, and all concur
red hi thu authority of thu eltv to make
Mich loans hi anticipation ot leveiuifS in
process oi collection, in their opinions
thev elto very stromr authority Irom tlie
Supreme Court of Iowa.
1 his written opinion is larger than It
should be, becau-i! written ha-tlly.
l win oniy uuu mat u would ue a strange
and an anomalous state of affairs that
Avould require the city to sit still, sit si
lent as tho night, Avatelimg thu unceasing
and voracious Hood washing away and
swallowing up the verv buttresses and

Invokes thu law of neees-ltv. which,
though frequently said to lie no law, is in

The I.eveo Committee made the fol
lowing report:
Your committee dc-lru to report lhat
they would suggest locating llio proposed
now levee ou the Misisslnpi sido of tho
city, as ionows : iscgniniiig at thu cross
levee above Hie city, at a point about onu
hundred feet west of Washington aventiu
and running on a direct line
to near llio corner of Thirty-fourth
and .Mulberry street-,
then to llio Mississippi leyee, Intersect
ing same at a point about opposite Thir
tieth street. Wo would further recom
mend that the contemplated leveu he
built about same heighth as the present
one, six feet on top, andtliesloiio on out
side onu to three, and on Inside onu to
two; that It lie built by contract, and
under the Immediate supervision of a
competent engineer. Wo havo
employed Mr. Hely to prepare a hasty,
but approximate amount ot thu
probablu cost of said levee, together with
such other suggestions ns liu might think
proper to maku In connection herewith,
all of which we submit with this report.
