Itough the Louisiana Legislature, at its last

denies, and in denying it makes the following
nost extraordinary statements:

alein New Orleans list winter if I did niot
to defeat his charter. and I was asurvsd

I was also offered the aid of e4rt4ain memlbers

RAILROADS AND IMMIGRATION.
There is a perfect unity of sentilment and
ideas anorlng all intelligent cttizrns of Lou
Isiana ias I1 thie great ned ofr l, larger popu
latilon of producers and c'ultivators of the
soil in this State, and in the I.llirf that
we have a larger area of rl h lnitivable
land to he profitably tilled iy such
Ihumigrainut than any other State of the
IUnion or anly part of the( (ihristian world.

'iThe only diference is as to the practical
mnethods of prollloting this- genral senti ment
and desire of our people. Without entering
into the discussion of these netinhois and the
opposlng views thereon, we believe that all
reoanon and experience will concflr iln and ,1on
firmn this proposltion: That facilities for
cheap and rapid trl'ansportatiln are comnditil)ns
pr vdentllt to the. " uc('ssful detvelopment
and ienjoymenrnt of the vast benefilts and pro
litalbleness of our abundance of rich land. It
will Ibe vain to exhlibit to people abroad, who
desire to emigrate to and sIettle in fresh, new
and rich lands, the immennse agricultural
wealth of tins State, and those many Iother
great advantages of Eiltlvation of our soil.
unless at tlhe same tinme we can assure them
of easy, quicrk and cheap modes of transpolr
tation to good markets and of communica
tions with the outside world. Mr. i. Don
nett ihas rendered great services to our State
by his abhi and graphic d<escriptions of theise
ilrrlmenlse re'Isour'ces, of tihe various, Indloed )of
every part of ,our State. But of what avail
are' tilhse to attract laor and immigration to
these localities if we cannot afford, to this
labor and immigration, those nlearns of tran
sit and travel which have deiveloped countries
so) far inferior to ours. liHoele tiese zealousn
champions of immigration, who urge' quite
superfluously as an argument in behalf
of this lm\vemelnt, tlhat it will promote our
railrtrd enterprises, put tile cart before the
horse, or at. least put one horse behind the
othelr instoad of harnessing and driving them
abreast. Railroads must precede or move
pari panss with population andl immigration.
The immigrants who come to this city to in
spect and locatel in the rich lands describ.ed
by Mr. I)ennett must lind here ready and
cheap access thereto; they must be enabled
to traverse the whole section of country,
every portion of which presents to them some
rare attraction for investment and cultiva
tion. Alas! In our present circumrstarnces we
have no such facilities. The best portion of
the State is without such nlmans of access and
communication. Take, for instance, the route
of the New Orleans Pacific railway. There is
noIt in the United States a richer, more pro
ductive and beautiful coruntry, nor one wlich
is more difficult of access and more isolated
from markets and commerce. For two hun
dred miles of this route the land is of inex
haustible fertility, above overflow and capa
ble of producing all the great staples and
fruits of our soll and climate. A mlillion of
InpIple could find abundant resoures and
highly remunerating employment for labor
through this whole region. A railway tray
ersing this country would in a few years
enable this region alone to augment twofold
the product of sugar and cotton of the whole
State and at the same time to raise all the
subsistence and luxuries demanded by a rural
population. There are over a million of acres
along this route which belong to the govern
no ment and are unsalable on account of their
r- inaccessiblity.

Why tiefi, in view of those facto, should a
not the science of cookery, in tt til hghfsLt do
vil(ipment, rftnk with theiliigy, law and iried
Icine, the scioices which are iesligrwd merely
to iuro or palliate the evils it would almost o
entirely prevent? v
And further, why should not the cook be
ranked in the highest ranks of artists as well
as in those of scientist? We have noticed the
decline of female beauty and referred It to bad
cookery. Let our colleges and universities
furnish us with thoroughly educated cooks,
and the beauty of the next generation will be
immeasurably increased; nay,the sharp harsh
lines of thousands of faces which every day
meet us in the street will be softened and
toned into beauty when that wonderful larb
atory of the human sysuiom, the stomnuah, is
supplied with proper materil, which it can,
without violence and misery, work ulp.
The business of the artist is merely to copy
nature, but here we find that the high and
holy work of the cook is to sustain nature, to
preserve and nourish the beauty which the
Creator, with loving tenderness, has formed
with His own hands to bless and enchant the
world. Why, then, will not the coming cook,
the true, real cook, be greater than even the
artist?
This is a subject upon which we could descant
at much greater length; but we forbear. We
have said enough, we are sure, to impress
the educators, the legislators and philan
thropists of the time, that the one thiimg
.r needful to perfect the civilization of the
nineteenth century is the establishment inr
- our institutions of learning the chair if

TO TI[E PUBLIC.
Referring to an indictment found lv the
Grand Jury of this parish, in which I am
charged with robbery, by one Emil Couder, and
to whlch Publicity has been given in the court
columns of the city press, I respelt fully request
a suspension of public opinion until the matter
is explained by a trial.
3My personal friends and acquaintances know
that I am in.apable of perpetrating any 'rim'.
With an ex parte examination of Mr. Emil
('Cuder. the prose.ting a itness, who is a mem
br of the Grand Jury flanding the inlictment,
and no chance to be heard myself, the ar''sa.
tion will not appear astonishing to those that
do not know me personally.
