The Colonel-Engi neer, or the Unglneer-Colonel, or the Engineer Commissioner Colonel, proba bly deserves the praise that he is receiving. Ileally, upon serious con sideration of the question, we bare no doubt that lie does. In truth, he has no purpose In view but the good of the District, the enforce ment of the laws, the reclamation of the downfallen nnd the punishment of the perversely wicked. But will he permit u to say that he luxuriates, as a practical reformer, in too much brass band? that he descends upon the rev cling wicked with too great n display of banners? that there Is not In fact but In appearance Just a little too much of tlio Little .lack Ilornor boaetfulness in the way he ents his reform plum-pie In tho eye of the public 7 No doubt the Com missioner Is a good man, doing good work In a good way, and tli'nt ho de serves praise above his almost wicked partners, Commissioners Douglas nnd Illnes, but it does seem to Tiik Ciutic tl at he should work In a more subdued light than the electric glare of the look at'ine publicity In which he has been busily reforming the slums lately. TIIEOWL SUI'KItSKDKD 11Y CIIAN TIOLKKIt. The owl w.w one of the two birds to width Minerva, the OixldtHs of Wis di in, was partial; and for that reason, piobably, this bird has been tliu pir titular favorite of Tiik Ckitic. Hut the owl Is not of unblemished reputa tion. It Is carnivorous. It has n dis agreeable voice. And It gets ita liveli hood In what is called owl light, be cause that Is a glimmering or Imperfect Hlit. In abort, the owl la a bird ot the night and a bird of prey, and In Leviticus, as well as In other books of the Ulble, It Is denounced as a foul abomination among fowls. Job also, ami other miserable or complaining men of the Scriptures, have made other disparaging remarks about this wise looking creature. So, we have be come prejudiced against the owl. We believe It to be a bad bird; and, to be frauk, wt believe, also, that the wis dom of the owl Is all in Ita eye. We are compelled, therefore, to take the owl from Tiik Critic, as the bird that Is emblematical of the paper's mis sion; but, in r lace of the hooting ami screeching looter of the barn-yard, wo we will give to Tiik Ckitic as its em bh mullc bird the other favorite bird ef 3Iinerva, Chapman's Democratic rooster, that ever-glorious, cheery voiced, never-say-die, always-ready-for-a-tigbt bird the bird that has crowed so often and so loudly over many a Demo cratic triumph, and was during all the (lark night of Democratic disaster what Shakespeare has designated it, the bird of dawning, and that even now Is the herald of the morn of Democratic vic tory, the promise of which Is reddening the eastern sky.

Hut It must lie said to his credit that al most all his bad qualities have grown from seed planled In the well-manured soil of his intense partisan nature. He is ready In I lie Interest of W party to do anything good or bad. In Its Interest he would Are the Capital with Ihe air of a man doing a patriotic duty; but, in his own personal interest, he would not do any, even the most trivial, act of lawless violence. In the interest of his party he Is ready to do, and actually Is engaged now, nt what may be called Congressional robbery of tho Treasury by opproprlatlou acts, into which crime outer, In alKiut equal proportions, the elements of burglary, hlghwaymanshlp and pockct-plcklng) but Tom Heed would not enter the wide-open door of the Trensuiy and curry off the surplus for tho purpose of cm Idling himself personally, even It he could do so with out trouble and In the certainty that tho act would never be disco vcred.

He Is n true-blue Republican, and In that phrase is contained a lurid explanation of all his nIHclal tergiversa tions and brutalities. AhRT mast profound an iiig'iilott crlllclHit Imve liven written concerning the I'erfoiniHiier of the Straus orchestra from V ten us, and nearly all of litem eoucued In a vt-ln of unMliited prale uml commenda tion. It U, therefore, with the turnout re luctance that we eonfcM to a tie ot JImp point went, niter a ercf'il hearlna;, wherein all otiririlprtloii(i vtti enlist d favorably. All that we had beard about the dellcaey ami preeislon of the orchestra's work wm realized In one expertenee. We discerned the light and dainty touch, the (gracious dash am Irresistible swing of the de livery. Hut there siael to us a sad deficiency In the matter of volume and eiuphttls at time. ThM were not always needed. Esilallyln the eompotltlon of .Air. KiluarU Strauu himself would any save tlie very 1'gbtMt treatment have been out of place. Hut one occasionally encounters In the works of the elder, Johami Strauss, a rauc.e Abere the demand are very great and wbers the west powerfully dramatic treatment would he appropriate. A ease In point may be found Iu the waltz move ment which closes the second act of the Queen's Lsce Handkerchief. This figured on the programme of Sunday night ss "Hose of the South," but it is more generally known In connection with the very tuneful opera we have named. We venture to say that uotxxly who attended last night's iterforaaBee and who had previously beard the same raueJe rendered by the .MeC'aull or the Casino Company of New York felt quite satisfled tbat the fullest use bad bB made of the ojijiortUDUIt. For ourselves, we found greater saUtfae tlon and more to admire and enjoy In the perforraaneea of Ollraore's Hand. This aisy be a narrow aad prejudiced view of the nutter, but we think itot, IT sbiuis to vs tbat the trial of Sureeou Sriaby of the Capitol City Guard partakes somewhat of the nature of persecution. No colored gentleman of high rank, either In the civil or the military walk of life, bos ever been expected to atteud a picnic, a frh-fry, a take-walk, or any other gaudy function tbere free beer, or even subscrip tion teoie, prevails, aad to malaUia that perfect sobriety ot deuteonor whieh is, pre sumably, characteristic of him elsewhere.

"A SCHOOL BOY" REPLIES To deorcla" anil Milken Oauttlo Ne wark In 111 I'enullar Myle. KMter Critic. In your valuable paper of May 24, 1600, your correspon dent, "Georgia," attempts in vain to color tbe waters of truth upon tbe iiuottlon of outlets! He squirms like an eel In the hands of Sullivan! It Is useless! He knows tbat tbe law, tbe illustration, and tho application, which I presented In your paper of May 21, are correct and he dare not deny them! I have great respect for teachers, especially from tbe prairies of Kansas, when they tell tbe whole truth and nothing but the truth; and yet when they move into the valley of the Missis sippi and settle at such highland places as Natchez, In tbe State of Mississippi, aad from such points of natural advaat age endeavor to mislead the Govern tient Into building vast levees oa tbe banks of tbe Mississippi River, which often cave into the river, ktveee aad all, 1 must talk back. If I were buildiBg a railroad from Kansas City toNatohez. Miss., It U very probable (hat I should oppose outlets until I got the Govern meat to divide the cost of the bed of ay railroad ia the t'Veriiowed lands north of Red River upou the ground that it was acting as a Mad of levee for the plasters! 1 deay tha absurd figures la regard to the deposit to Lake Borgue for the reason that tbe tidal outlots of tbe Mis sissippi River at Southwest Pass, South Pass, Pass Loutre, Cubit's Gap and the Jump have beea open for periods raug tog from forty years to two huadred years, ami for the same reasons would the outlet toto Lake Borgae, if made osm mile wide aad km feet deep at low water, remain open with a river be tween Its banks just Uke the other tidal outlets named above have done, are detox and will continue to do until aiopptd up by scientific ignoramuses! The luods of the Mhjifasippi Biver wuat be given many wide, deep and direct outlets to the tiulf. or they will continue to run over the tops of the levees, to their mad efforts to get to the Gulf of Mexico ! It seessts to me that, if Congress Usttuu much longer to the sessMlees assertions of men who have the audacity to say that there are no socks to the bed of the Mississippi Shier at Malchez, on which Ave steam brass have been wieeked. the Missie ajppf Sever stii get wad and back oVomn the Aichsiatoya to the Gulf, and thus leave New Orleans upon an Inland bajeui T sjao thins that the Senators from ma must soon choose between the Lake Burgee oustot tried at etae et c4hcrwise if the- es- MfAlp see New Orleans sesaain oa the eea or ttc "iffftafrri laser, and 1 posjr ins tluu if they persist to their onnashton B ihU trial of what seeeas so uJUto to so uuuy thowMnde of people to this country, lUy U1 hate to face tbe sissidjsne that the railroad itieruisinrs and Sapsas umuks ate enuee toiueniial with them iWn U the welfare of the milieu who live in thai dutulate but VoneVurf uily fertile- valley.
