AN EQUITABLE OLAIM.
The facts given in our morning edi
tion relative to the unfortunate loss to
the city of all benefit from the hand
some donation of Judah Touro and R.
D. Shepherd suggest similar disasters d
that have occurred to other bequests of p
a similar character, respecting which a
our worthy Mayor is preparing a re- g
port, which will soon appear. There is
a typographical error or omission of a
o in the statement of the donation of
Mr. R. D. Shepherd for the finishing -
the billding for the Almshouse and em
bellishing the grounds. It should have
been $50,000 instead of $5000.
Those old gentlemen had their own
ideas relative to the most judicious ap- I
plication of their charitable means.
One of their favorite ideas was that of
an almshouse where both home and
shelter and employment could be fur
nished to the destitute, and beggars
and tramps would be required to abide,
under wholesome restraints, but in com
fort and under a judicious discipline. A
There appears to have been a keen and
large prescience evinced by these vener- 1
able philanthropists in their plans. In
those days beggars and tramps were al
most unknown in New Orleans, now
they are as numerous as the vermin in
Egypt during the plague. Thus an alms
house of the character indicated has be
come a great need, a most desirable in
stitution.
The edifice erected previous to the
war and paid for out of the legacy of
Mr. Touro was burned whilst in' pos
session of and used as the barracks for
United States troops, then in the occu
pation of the city. Has not the city a
just and equitable claim upon the
United States government for reim
bursement of the amount of this char
itable bequest destroyed? Would any
government refuse to restore to so noble
a purpose the value at least of the prop
erty which was taken out of the hands
of its trustees and used for government
and military purposes? Are there not
innumerable precedents in the action of
Congress and of the government for the
granting of such reimbursement, even
of private losses and iutoh more of
charitable and benevolent institutions,
caused by the acts of the government
and its officers and employes ?
A most enterprising and useful citi
zen departed this life at Ocean Springs
on the 19th of August-Mr. A. A. Ma
ginnis, a native of Baltimore, Md., and
for thirty-six years a resident of this
city. In his early career in this city
Mr. Maginnis pursued with great en
ergy and success the business of ship
building. He had the sagacity, how
ever, to appreciate the great importance
and value of the cotton seed oil busi
ness, and was the first person in this
city to embark in that manufacture on
a large sealed With his mechanical
skill, great 64.rgy and excellent sense
he managed td render this a very profit
able and successful manufacture, and
proved to be the founder of a business
which has since become the largest,
most profitable and most attractive
to capital of all others which have
been started and prosecuted in this
city during the last twenty years.
There are some half a dozen incorpo
rated companies engaged in the business
which realize handsome profits. Mr.
Maginnis was the pioneer in this man
ufacture and to him is due the introduc
tion and invention of the many im
provements in the ingenious and ex
tensive machinery employed in convert
ing an article that had been previously
thrown away, or used only as a manure,
into so many valuable forms and uses.
As a citizen Mr. Maginnis was greatly
esteemed in this community for his lib
erality, public spirit and for all the
social and domestic virtues. He leaves
a large family and a handsome estate.
The rebel war in Japan is nearly ended.
Eartbquakes have recently been shak
ing up Japan.

present you with this statement, as evidence of
our high appreciation of the value of the AR
RBOW TIE, as a fastening for Cotton Bales.
We have used it constantly in our Presses
since its introduction, having found no other

we can safely recommend it to planters as the
BEST TIE we have seen.
Pressing from five to seven hundred bales per
day, when running full time. we find it to our
interest to purchase the ARROW BUCKLE from
you for the purpose of replacing any other
buckle that may be on the bale taking the
others off and throwing them in the scrap pile
to be sold as old iron.
