.$W OIRLBAN, NOVEMBER 10, 1877.
RIOBMOND AND NEW ORLEAN8.
The city of Richmond, Va., has doubled her
population since the war. After the war she
WNs & mass of ruins, and her population was
eo#posed chietly of bankrupts and paupers.
,gajkrupts and paupers made so by the war,
by the self-sacrifice and devotion of her noble
people to the Lost Cause. In twelve or fifteen
years she emerges from this desperate condi
"an into a thriving commercial city, with a
population of seventy-live thousand, with
three hundred and thirty-one factories of all
arta, turning out every product of art, from
a luoier match to a steam engine. The sales
of her factories In 1876 reached the sum of
U.-f-148_,800. Her wheat and corn mills pro
-uced $2,857,000, her forty-one tobacco facto
AIg $12,088,300, her iron works $2,032,780; and
the bonds of the corporation of Richmond are
To accomplish these marvelous results,
l-..ahmond has encountered those two great
i~dtales, so much dwelt on in this city as
'18 prinoipal difficulties to the increase and
4ylopment of Now Orleans, to wit: a
;ientable lack of capital, an oppressive
atei debt, and consequent burdensome taxa
10m and several years of carpet-bag adminis
tgation of the State government.
The population of Richmond, too, is more
a-rgely Southern than that of New Orleans.
It Is a common but unjust reproach of our
Southern born people, that they are deflicient
'n enterprise, energy and industry.
Let the progress of Richmond and Atlanta
turing the last twelve years furnish the re
futations of this slander. Their rapid ad
eancement against like obstacles and from
lte same condition of ruin and devastation
y our own, is due to the vigor and zeal with
Which they have maintained their great arti
Sidal agencies to transport produce from the
interior, and by their factories convert the
game into forms for exportation which quad
ruple the value of these raw products in the
-la4etls of the world.
T&tus the tobacco product of the whole
0ate, which in its crude state does not reach
te amount of eight millions of dollars and
OC a fraction of which is sent to Richmond,
c~-v her forty-one factories converted into a
.tituaotured artiole of the value of $12,038,
' I the production of this new form of
I_ staple thousands of laborers are em
played.
N: Now, supposing that even a fraction of our
: iety millions of dollars of cotton were
anlmipulated and converted Into the now
1t'ms of yarns, or coarse cloths, tripling or
.ladrupling the value of the raw material, the
04wealth and population of New Orleans would
,hbe necessarily correspondingly increased.
Whereas the melancholy fact stares us in
itheo face, that the hitherto valueless seed
Sthe cotton supplies the material for our
iy thriving manufacture, whilst the lint,
hlays the most valuable of our agricultural
oacts, is sent here to be forwarded else
ubere to be manufactured into the simplest
Slams of manufacture, thereby supporting
:.lae populations in distant countries, and
employment here, for the purpose of
Kseslving and forwarding it, to a population
ýgmly about equal to that of some of the thriv
Svillages of the West. This, too, in a city
we have the high testimony of the
president of the Central Illinois Railroad
Sasserting there is more idle and cheap
abor and where the expenses of subsistence
we er than in St. Louis, Chicago or Lou
Here then we have the conspicuous facts
main causes of the non-progress of New
'selans. We think we can safely assert that
h the factorage system of Richmond
tobacoo receipts of four or five millions
IVe employment to and subsist a larger pop
= latn than can be supported by the handling
ninety millions of dollars of cotton. The
me Is even more strikingly true of the hog
of Chicago. Estimating her three
of hogs to be of the value of twenty
of dollars, and considering the innu
le processes through which this product
passed, for exportation in the various
of lard, pickled pork, bacon, oil, can
brushes, glue, etc., we think it perfectly
. affirm that profitable employment is
in the manipulating of these twenty
one of dollars of hogs for four or five
the number of our population who re
employment or subsistence from
the million and a half ot bales of
received in our port.
Now, in view of these facts and examples.
'l what reason do we complain of our sta
,onary condition, when we stubbornly per
A{st in a course of direction and application
our vast natural advantages, which must
far us from the methods and agencies
;rough which alone great cities can be built
and march to prosperity and increase.
Without railroads into the interior to bring
t$he vast products of the country adjacent and
.aviting us to come for the same, and without
i~halities to convert these raw products into
more valuable and cheaply exportable forms,
CJ confess our great anxiety and apprehen
alzn whether New Orleans has yet entered
upon the path which she must tread ever to
reah the great destiny which a kind Prov
has marked out for her.
article we reproduce from the St. Louis
De this morning with reference
defines the plan suggested by the
Engineers and Capt. Eads'
e to correct the Chaneli of the
Misasstppi, lift, as it wea;t h 'whole abl
vial buain and open up ooMfa Mavigatiof to
the very interior of the oountry. We are
warranted in saying that this paper contains
an accurate statement of the plan of Capt. Ends
for the improvement of the Missiselppi and
the protection of its lowlands. He expressly
disclaims any system of cut-offs as was al
leged in the very forcible letter of Mr. S. W.
Nicol in the iPirayune yesterday morning.
We are very distrustful of this magnificent
scheme. Indeed, it seems to us more like a
splendid epic poem in engineering than a
practical means of reclaiming the lowlands
of the Mississippi. We print it, therefore,
not because we believe in it, but because it
touches a great interest of our people, and
because, whether practical or not, It is ad
vanced and supported by a gentleman whose
past achievements in engineering command
respect and consideration for anything he
may suggest.
That this scheme will have a strong sup
port in Congress we are very certain. But
the people of that portion of the Mississippi
Valley whoso interests are largest in the
levee system will never acquiesce in it until
it is forced upon them and made a success.
The Picayulu yesterday morning pro
nounced itself in favor of a constitutional
convention on the single ground that the
present constitution of the State is, in the true
sense of the word, no constitution at all. The
call for the convention which framed it was a
military order, a process of calling a conven
tion foreign to our theory of government; the
men who framed it were not in reality citi
zens of Louisiana, and the mass of the people
most deeply interested were excluded from
voting on its ratifloation. Upon these grounds
our contemporary considers that we have no
constitution.
This is precisely the view of the case the
DMFIoc'AT has taken in several articles quite
recently, both of which have been extensively
reproduced throughout the State. The Pica
yune has got the right sow by the ear this
time, and we hope it will hold on.
There are a great number of other reasons
for a constitutional convention, most of which
have been fully and clearly discussed by our
country contemporaries and by correspond
ents of this paper, especially by Mr. Lewis, of
St. Landry, and all of which may be embraced
for the present in the general statement that
under the existing constitution those sweeping
reforms necessary to enable us to conduct the
State government economically cannot be
made.
The Criminal Sheriff and the Recorder of
the First Police Court are resolved not to
"get left." The Sheriff, who holds one of the
most lucrative offices in the city, has taken
the most arbitrary of legal steps to force the
impecunious city to " come down," and the
Recorder has taken the law in his own hands
and appropriates the fees and revenues of his
court to the payment of himself and officials.
If the police and the fire departments-two of
the most important and poorest paid depart
ments of the city government-should follow
the example of the Criminal Sheriff and Re
corder, the city would be placed in a most de
plorable condition.
The Criminal Sheriff, of all the public offi
cials, should be disposed to deal leniently
with the city. That official, if the state
ment which comes to us from the City Hall
be correct, has already received during
the present year fees to the amount of
$80,000, while act thirty-five of the extra
session, we believe, prescribes that he shall
receive a very liberal interest on his bills for
keeping prisoners when payment in cash is
delayed over thirty days.
The President of the Cotton Exchange yes
terday received the following telegram from
our indefatigable representative, Hon. E.
John Ellis:
Wm. 0. Black Esq., President New Orleans
Cotton Exchange:
I am glad to state that Secretary McCreary
to-day orders Major Bonyaurd, of the engi
neer corps, to remove the raft In Red river,
and to keep the river open. Benyaurd tele
graphs he has the means, and that it will re
quire two weeks to accomplish the work,
which he will proceed at once to do.
E. JOHN ELLIS.
The managers of St. Patrick's Hall yester
day promptly prohibited a repetition of the
can-can in that building, and the perform
ance there last evening, we are glad to say,
was characterized by no grossness. The
action of the managers of the hall was, of
course, what everybody anticipated from
these gentlemen.
The New Orleans Times is in favor of in
creasing the army. Packard, Kellogg and
Radicals generally favor the same thing.
