Another anonymous eommeunlation has been
revoed by the Mayor pelrrtlag to nberm a
stranger who has traveled essenaivly, and not
tot made a fortune anywhere, eomparlug our
bck streets and those of the beautiful cilies
whieb he has vidltei. It would seem that this Is
not the drat time that mysterious eareastle oea.

/Dae eltiseus of the Goudon District corn
Mlaosd yesterday that a eisterns obstruets
[he street at the out' or of Camp s ashington
Avenue. The matter will, of ourse, be referred
to the Surveyor.
The Mayor ie, neverthelse, disposed to be
very lenient towards all the tradespeople, and to
merchants se well, for he says It Ic an indication
of growing prospearity that seufcent room for
torage should not be found for all their goods
sand ares within their establishmeuts. For his
part he would like to see every sidewalk In the
oity encumbered with produce and product. of
all kinds; he would then think that NMe Orleans
Is regaining her gradeur and preettie as one of
the greatest commercial marts an the world.
THE SUSAR saMa QtESTION.

remember correetly, Ases the tuis on sugar at
forty cents per hogihead for the first moueth and
ten ants for ea subeequest month and ten
cents for labor. He was aware, howevsr that
there was some opposition even to sech a larel
As to what action the cuoncil was apt to take on
the reelution he was for thwpresent unable to
e then bad a ohat with the Mayor on the
same subject. His honor was terse and to the
poit. Hmaintans, he says, the same views on
thatM that the Sar mhadle pr have con
sth ar and molasses
at certain fAed rates, and should abide by t' e
terms of their contract. As to the resolution bh
fore the Council, hecould not favor it sad change
the situation established by she obligations of the
luger Shed Company.
THE SCHOOL HOARD CLAIM.
City Attorney Jonas, to whom was referred the
communincation of the school board clasming thrt
the city shou d pay them their full appor
tionment of the schools, eaw 1215 000, for the
year, says :hat there is an point of law to be de
cided in the matter, which we understand to
mean that the school board have no claim at all, I
and that ills a matter of plain fast that they mass
stand on the same footi. g as the other creditors
of the Slate, end wait unul the taxes come in be
fore they can get the balance due them.
THE SCHOOL TEACHERS.
We refer our school teachers and other appli.
cants for teacherships in the public sobotls to
the proceedings of the School beard meeting last
evening, and to the list of successful competitors
at the recent examinations, published in another
column of the DPxooxAT. It will be seen by the
peroentage reached, generally, that the examina
tions have been very satisfactory, and that nearly
860 of the 1000 persons examined have passed
the examination, which was of quite an elevatec
order.
TEE RICK.
It is a Weapon Used New-a-Days by Roth
Male and Female.
A new mode of warfare has in these enlight
ened days arsen, and the weapon used is the
brick. Yesterday a merchant named John
Holmes and one John Brennen became involved
Ia a dimculty, and after a heated discussion
Holmes seised a brick that was near at hand and
dealt his opponent a telling blow over the head,
inflicting a severe though not a dangerous
wound. The row finally ended by a policeman
patting in an appearance and landing Holmes
inur the ijentral Station.
At 7 o'clock last evening, on Girod stret, be
tween Magazine and Toboupitoulas streets, two
of Ireland's daughters. named respectively Alto%
O'Nell and Mary Lyden. had a set-to on account
of some remarks that Alice had made against
Ellen L n, daughter of M den. This cunl
m in Alie O'Neil gher delicate
pinchers on one side of a brick and laying the
other gently on her antagonist's head. The
brick was laid so gently on Mary Lvden's head
that she had to be sent to the Uharity Hospital.
Alice was taken in charge by Corporal Dwyer
and imaured in the Central station. charged by
Ellen Lyden with assaulting and wounding her
mother with a brick with intent to commit mur
der, and also with insulting and abasing the
family in genaral.
The wounded woman was conveyed to the hos
tal, above stated, where her wound was exam
ined by the physian, who pronounced it a se
vere one.

Cellector King's Malrts and the Returning

If there was anything that disturbed the aqua.
nimity of the average Federal official yesterday it
was the

thought before the election, the Hayes strong.
hold. They did not like it at a4, and really, as
one said, didn't understand it. Some said that
Providence had rebuked the President for his
Southern policy, but they couldn't explain how
it was that Providence had in the pest four or
six years changed the views of about sixty thou
send Republican voters in that State and induced
them to come squarely to the ballot boxes and
DEPOSIT DEMOCRATIC VOTES,
and the general excuse for the defeat was that
the Republican Buckeyes were only teaching
Hayes a lesson. and meant to whip him back into
the straight-jecket Republican traces again or
drive him squarely into the Democratio party.
"It Is done," said pue, "to see whether or not
he will halt in that liberal Southern policy, as it
be does not there is danger that in 1690 we may
not elect his successor, and this will serve to
unite the Repnbiic n party against a policy wblah
leads only to the downfall of Republican suprem
Another thought that the defeat would compel
Hayes to call a halt in his course as the inter
viewed expressed it, or he would bring down
upon his head all the ire of his Northern friends.
Still another had it that the Ohio Republicans
had become utterly disgusted with
MAYES AND slEtiAN,
and their ridiculous attempts at civil service re
form, and for the many exploded blunders they
had made, they, the Republieaus of Ohio, had
now shown them what they thought of it.
One, and an Ohio man, cited what e termed
a faur pas made by Hayes months ago, when he
turned hut a postmaster at Toledo, an ex-Union
officer to make room for a friend, and said fur'
ther gist the e-putstmaster had by Tuesday's
election been chosen as a State Senator, where
he could do the most good (?) for Stealey Mat
thews.
The circumstances related may give something
of a sequel to the Republican defeat, and we
therefore give them as briefly as possible. The
postmaster, Steadman, was eafldient and re
spected by
DEMOCSATS AND REPt'VLIOAltS,
no charge having ever been made against
him, but the Presdent wanted his scalp, and
have It he'mnst. Steadman objected to resign.
log and suggested, as a means of testing the
sincerity of the President's expressions in his
inaugural that the matter be left to the citizens
to decide by an ihformtal election, and that the
proposed new postmaster and Llmself be the
candidates. Further, that it be (Steadman) did
not get three-fourths of all the votes east, Demo
cratio and Republican, he would retire gracefully
and pay the expenses of the election out of
H18 OWN POCKET.
He told the President in his letter that the prece.
dent had been es ablished at Fremont-the Pres.
ident's home-and that the suggestion In that
case was ble (Hayes') own, and further that he
had commissioned the suonesaful candidate, con
sequently it was but fair that the same privilege
ehaid be granted in the ease of Toledo, which

Centre.
The matter then began to be agitated in the
n'pers, and finally Hayen declined the proposi
tion and rooted Steadman out, which satisfied
Meeadman's friends., nd notwithstanding that the
district bas heretofore proverbially given large
Republican majorities, those friends placed
tteadman on what they termed the national
ticket, ant4
to the State Legislature over an Administration
Republican to show Hayes what the tepublicans
thought of his Ionaugral pledges, his civil service
reformjfiasco soat Sherman's reformatory ideas.
"Than," said the narrator, "shows one reason
why the Slate of Ohio gave you such a majority,
and were the election to occur in a month hence
it would baye been geater still. Why," said he

Another reason was that they couldn't take up
