Ot lentis?
[From the New Orleans Picayune, March 29 ]
Tlio Common Council of New Orletiu having rcsolrod to
proffer to Millard Fillmore, un ex-President of the United
State# accompanied by liid friend auil fellow traveller,
John 1'. Kennedy, ex .-eretary of the Navy, a public re
ceptiou on hi* arrival hero, the committee appointed for
tlii- purpOBO invited those distinguished visiter# to make
an excursion up and down the river yesterday morning, .
and afterward* to leggnpaaj tliem to tlio City IIa.ll. |
there to be presented to our citizen". This Invitation ,
boin,- accepted, Meiari. 1 ill more and Kennedy, accompa
nied by ex Secretary of War Conrad, Lieutenant-Governor
Farmer, the Mayor of the city, Gen. Lewis, Mayor elect,
the C ollector of the Fort, and a majority of tlie Council, i
together w ith several of oar most re.-ijioctable citizens,
embarked at 9 o'clock A. M. on the flue steamboat Hubert |
J Ward, c^pt. Miller, under a salute of artillory, and
proceeded up the river for some distance, and then re- ]
turning past the ciiy, ami as far down as the battle- J
ground, thence returning t 'ie eortsgt arrived at the land- |
5ng, head of Canal street at about noon.
The i'ny was one of tl.q I < *st of the reason, and the '
trip vtas, In every resect, delightful. Among the com
pany on board were several ladies, whose smiles and con
ver.'ation added .in at 1 1 active charm to the oxc'arslon. An
excellent hand aid< d greatly in the ayreeable effect, by the
eloquent music it discoursed during the passage.
(>n landing from the boat, Mayor Crossman addressed
the city's guests in a few appropriate words. As nearly
as we could catch theui, they were, in suhstance. those : ?
Mr Fillmore, the pleasant duty devolves on me, as chief
ma.i tratc of this iity, to welcome you on behalf of my
fellow citizens, to New Orleans, and to teader t > you the
bo.-pitalities of the City. Oocupyinir, as you have done, sir,
the Idj host office in the ?lft of the American people, wo but
honor ourselves in honoring yon as having been t'e recipient
oT the proudest distinction which the w orld can confer, llut,
sir. without using the language of flattery, I tnay say that
you have peculiar claim.. on our gratitude anil cur regard.
Called upon by a mysterious dispensation of Providonce,
and at a most trying period ia our domestlo history, to 811
the exalted ktstion of President of the United States, you
rolled l aok the tide of fan..tl ism w hich threatened to over
whelm the country, and not lv viudioaUd the coastitu lion,
under the benign auspices of which tho North and thn
South, the Kast nnU the We?t, claimed c.jual pr lection and
support and found it at your imnds. Those trials aud those
daugvrs have not been for jetton, aud that it ha. been re
served for me to express t tie sentiment of my fellow citizens
to one who has deserved in well of his country, is a matter
ol special gratiiicatiou.
Fern ii met" assure y^u in ooneluclon, sir. that wo are
niest heartily rejoiced to n e you amongst ns.
Mr Fillmore said briefly that he received this warm
and cordial welcome to New Oi leans, with feelings of the j
deepest gratitude, blende-! with sentiineuts of the live
liest pleasure,
Amiilst salvos of Kit ilU.-v. whirh had continued unin
terruptedly from the time the steamer hove in sight, on
her reluin from down the river, tho procession was
formed, according to the programme of the committee,
and. under escort of ft military battalion, under the com
mand ol Gen. Palfrey ? the guests of tlie city ami their
friends rising in open carriages ? pa-.sed through Canal |
to Chart res street down Chartrcs to St. Ann street, down {
ft. Ann to Royal stieet, up Royal and St. Charles streets ?
to the City llall.
Along this entire line the streets were literally "
tlirorged with spectators, inside and outside of their
houses, stores, hotels, anil other public buildings. Tho "
balconies all along the route were tilled with ladies; ladies
occupied all the windows 1 oking on tho streets through |
which the procession parsed; ladies were in the balconies |
at the corner of Chartrcs and Canal, and Royal and Canal I
streets; ladies' bright eyes and sparkling smiles outvied 1
all the jewels in Hyde h Goodrich's wsreroomd, as they
beamed down upon the tortige front Hyde f: Goodrich's
?xtended balcony: the St. Louis and St. Charles hotels
were perfectly radiant with the presence of ladies; while
ever and anon portions of this brilliant array of beauty
and fashion waved their kerchiefs, -and threw their bou
quets, in honor of the city's guest. It was, indeed, a
sight to be seen, aud a sight long to remember.
Atrivcd at the City llall, after a few moment's rest
in the Mayor's room, Mr. l illmore and Mr. Kennedy, ac
companied by Mr. Conrad and tho rest of those who had
formed the procession, were invited to tho front portico,
where a temporary platform had been erected. Thore
they found themselves face to face with a crowd that
numbered many thousands, who greeted their coming
with rounds of hearty cheers.
F.C.Wright, F>ij., of the Board of tho Council, anil ,
Chairman of the Committee of Arrangements, addresied
Mr. Fillmore as follows; ?
Sm-I have the honor, iu behalf of the Mayor and Com
mon Councilor New Orleans, to bid you welcome to the
hospitalities of the city, l'ermit me to assure you, sir, that
when New Orleanr offers hor hospitality to the Granger, it
is no unmeaning ccremonv. The lips speak the fulneis of
the heart, and the hand of wclonuie is extended in obedience
to its not lest impulses. Sir, yon are no stranger, though
for the fir.it time presen ami ii'T ua The name of Millard
Fillmora is familiar to our citizens of whatsoever party or
sect, and always awakeus the best em otious ot tho truly
American heart; emotions of natural pride and gratitude ?
pride in the glorious institutions planted bv our fathers,
wtich inculi ate. foster and reward lofty virtue in the ei'i
sen: and gratitude tow srds an ho uos'. faithful, and capable
deteudcr of the principles upon which those institutions
rest. Were 1 to a tribute t> you, sir, the highest character
istics of tho statesman? to rank your name with those who
have bhed lustre upon the name and institutions of our
country, I could not suspect myself of indulging iu unmrrit
ed ouloty. Your administration, sir, though not marked, as
have been those which preccd?d it, by achievements of our
armies. i? conspicuously distinguished by such events as iu
times of peace oall into exercise and full deTeloperoeut tho
tranfcenoant qualities of the statesman? events which de
manded on tho part of the Chief Magistrate, especially un
yielding firmness, patriotism, and signal ability ia maintain
log the principles upon which the fabric of our constitution
rests, when, for the first time, men dared to calculate the
value of that constitution and of the Union itself. But,
sir, you were found equal to the emergencies, 'and your
country will Loner you. Sir, may you in retirement be as
happy ar your put lie services have been (-ratifying to your
country and honorable 'o yourself. Again, sir, in behalf of
t! isCrcscent City, 1 bid you hearty weloome as her r.uoFt,
whom she delight* to honor. During the tlmo you may
plea.'> to honor us with your sojourn, you may have oppor
tunity by personal observation to become to some extent ac
quainted with the peculiar institutions of the South, and the
qualities and leading characteristics of our citizens. The
gallant sons and fairot daughters of Louisiana will greet
you with a wolcoine from hearts enlarged and expanded be
neath bright and glowing skies, and amid the influences of
nature displayed in her bouiiillesi magnificence. Again, sir.
in the name of these assembled thousands, welcome to New
Orleans. (Cheers.)
Mr Fillmore bowed iu acknowledgment of this hand
seme ad. 1 1 ess, and advancing to the front of the platform,
addressed the assemblage at some length. He said: ?
He was entirely overwhelmed by the unexpected reception
which had been tendered him. Were he a general return ?
log with the spoils of victi rv from a foreign conquest, or
were he in office at the head of tho government, with pa |
tronsge to bestew. or were he even a party oandidate for i
the Presidential eHair, he could easily understand how and i
why a ri< monstration would begot up by those more par
ticularly interested in his acts and movements. With him,
however, the oase was different; he had no power to com
mand and no patronage to ileal out as the reward of favors.
This, after several iiieil'eetual attempts, was his Urst visit
to Now Orleans. He had heard a great deal of the fame of
th e Crescent City, but he must say. in truth, that the half
had cot been told, llut a short time since he left the toy
North, and though he expected a change as he wended his
way southward, be did not expect, on his arrival at New
Orleans, to be introduced to such an clysium of luxurious
vegetation as bad already been presented to his gaze, On
that morning be bad, for the first time, passed the glorious
?weop of tho city's crescent, and when he viewed Us Immense
store houses, its psla. es of granite and of marble, its broad
leveo laden with riches, and its steamers and wind urgod
messengers of trade, he could think of no namo so appro
Eriate for it as the Rainbow of Commerce (Cheers.) {
[e bsJ also visited the t attle ground, where the blood j
of an invading foe was shed, and where the chivalry of New |
Orleans |||SM a renown in arms which it has since most ?
nobly preserved. Among other things te had that day, for
the first time, been subjected to an irresistible battery of
Clercing Creole eyes, (theirs and laughter.) and it must not
f considered surprising if, under the ciroumstauces, ho '
felt a little abashed, and altogether unworthy of the honor
wliioh bad so generously been heaped upon him. If hi
rou'd only persuade himself that the eulogium w hich had
been pronounced on him ly the chairman of tho Reception
Committee was well fonndud an<l deserved, lie might look
on the demonstration of the day more as a matter of course. ?
aud as an illustration ot the falsity of the saying, " Repub
lies are ungrateful." No, republics are not unzratoful.
The little that be had done for the preservation intact of
the constitution of the country, had been as nothing to
whet thousands of other, had done, and to Uirn his country
had been more than grstefol. During hi' late tour, his
9outhcru friends had weleomed Tim in a spiri4of generous I
enthusiasm which be could never forget to theTatest day of
his existence To him the people of the South w?ro us Hoar
as those of the N orth, i. ml he trusted that he should ever
love the whole of his common country. Mr. Fillmore then
referred, ia eulogistic t mis, to the late General Taylor,
who, after being raised to the highest honors in the gift of
the nation, died in the midst of his usefulness. II.' con
cluded by again thanking tbo citizens of New Orleans for
the kin<t welcome which they had given him.
Mr Kennedy and Judge Conrad then made a few elo
quent remarks, which were well received, but which we
regret we have not allowed ourselves the spar* to report;
?nd after a half hour devoted to the reception of such
citizena as wished to pay their respect', the President
and his party were escorted to their quarters at the St.
Charles Hotel.
It was in all respects s most brilliant an 1 memorable
ceremonial, as honorable to the city who paid as to those
distinguished citizens w ho received it.
As we go to. press the city's guests are receiving visit
ers in the Mayor's rooms, City Hall, which have been
placed at his rommand during his stay with n? The day
is fine, snd many of our citizens are availing themselves
of the opportunity to pay thtir respects to these distin
guished gentlemen.
The stay here, and in the vicinity, of Messrs. Fillmore
snd Kennedy, will be protrscled until next week, daring
which time thev hare verv pleasant sociaf cnnagemeuts

MR. FILLMORE AT THE FRENCH OrERA.
There was a fine house at the Theatre d 'Orleans last
night, when ex President Fillmore, and e\ Secretaries .
Kennedy and Conrad were present. They were received, [
on entering the house, with great and continuous cheer
ing, and on leaving the theatre they were greeted
with great and continuous cheering, and on leaving tho i
theatre thejr were greeted with similar demons' rations.
They remained to the close of the opera, whleli was
Halevy's "Reins de Chypre," in which Borghese, lior.las,
Lacrolx and Betout were all in admirable voice, and ?ang
and acted their very best. The city's guests received
marked attention from several fashionable parties with
whom thny mingled in conversation, and were seemingly
delighted with the society they met there, and the
chaiming opera that was performed for their entertain

A rRoroswn additional criminal oocbt
On the communication from the Board of Coancilmen in
favor of Applying to t ho Legislature to establish an addi
tioD (i 1 Criminal Court in lliin city, being read.
Alderman Hjswaed said that an additional Criminal
Court wss roucn needed, aud he moved the concurrence of
thin Hoard with that of the Connctlmen. He had consulted
with the District Attorney on thia matter, and that gontio
man vai of opinion that another Criminal Court was actu
ally necessary to dispoae of the increasing number of offen
ders.
Alderman Mott hoped It would be referred to a committee
of this Doard. He, too, bad had a conversation with the
District Attorney' and the Recorder, and these gentle
men red in opinion as to the necessity for another Conrt.
Alderman CilAi scrv xaid lie had also had a conversation
with the Recorder and District Attorney, and he w?uld move
that the sutjeet be referred to a general committee. This
matter had teen 1 efore the Hoard on a former occasion, and
the District Attorney had been requested to furnish hia
opinion, but lie hail failed to do eo although he had
not failed to gi\c hia opinion to Individual members of this
Board.
Alderman Loud said, that as a member of the I, aw Com
mltteecf tho Board of Supervisors, be had asked the Dla
triet Attorney to explain his views before that Committee,
lot circumstance* had ireronted Mm from doing so. He
(Alderman UN) also had bad a conversation with t lie Re
cord* r. wl ose opinion is entitled to respect, and he says tho
additional court la net required. The Recorder's position
entitles hia opinion to respect and deference. The District
Attorney, on the other band, says it in impossible to trana
act all the bnriness with the pretent tribunals. This Board
ia not in a petition. therefore, to decide, and it was neces
sary, in order to come to a proper concluaion on the matter, '
tl.at it should be referred. He moved ita refereuce to the i
Law Ccmmittee.
Alderman Draki said, as the matter had been before the
Cuuncilmcn and reported on favorably by a committee of
that Board, bo supposed thero wits as mnch law there
amongst sixty m< ml era aa th ire was here among twenty,
and be voted for ita concurrence.
Alderman Ely, having left the chair, supported the motion
ft r concurrence: the great wrong is. that punishment doe*
mt immediately follow the perpetration of crimo. Justice,
economy, and all thing* combined, prove that another crimi
nal c?,nrt Is necessary for the administration of tiie lawa.
Mr. Ely then made feme remarks respecting the Reoorder
attending at Albany to defeat tbla bill, instead of being in
tbls cltj; to take bis position as a member of the lioara of
Supervisor*.
Alderman Mott. rising? I do not like things to be itated
hi re that are not true. [Some slight commotion J
Alderman F.i y? Docs the Alderman of the 1 wenty firet
Oicnn to say that I itate facts that are not true?
Alderman Mott? I don't believe all yon say
Al .erman Ely? That i? a* out as remarkable a statement
as a n> thing that baa come from the Alderman of the Twcn
ty-first.
'Alderman Mott rose, bat the crie* for order rendered his
rt mark inaudible.
Alderman Kly ? I take no apology from the Alderman of
the Twenty first: his conduct is well known: he has male
use of M ni ral allusion* which come with a very bad graoo
from him I would retort on him. but I don't wiah to make
this floor the arena for personal attack.
Alderman Mott? Co it 1
Alderman Ely? I will not go it: I will not throw my
slight wi-rht into the scales that have tried tbat gentle
man. and where, if the pnblio press ia to be believed, he has
been foond wanting.
Alderman Mott? Oh ! we understand that. (Laughter.)
AUirman llt nnii-x said that be believed thero were
plenty of criminal eourta ia the city? whether there waa
justice or not was another question. (Laughter )
Aldem.an Mott waa aorrv to aee that, from some cause or
other, certain individuals "had allowed themselvee to be
carried awav by this subject. If the Alderman of the Seven
teenth (the i hairman' had known that the criminal offence*
alluded to in the report could not come before tbeadditional
criminal court, 1 ut should be brought to the Oyer and Ter
miner
The PRreinr-rT. who had again taken the chair, said the
AldrrB'an of the Seventeenth well knew that: but he also
knew tl at the buiincss of the other criminal courts is
clogged for Wfint of another tribunal

After transacting seme otier unimportant business the
Board went into Committee of the Whole "'"ess, toe
ri?? taUn* up the report of the Committee on Pnblio
Tlealtb in favor of pajfhg Wm F. Reynolds for
COISTRAPT WORK
A the romival of dead animals, offnt,
Mr. Mather moved that it b? referred bark, and that the
Board report pregreea. Ui reaaon for making the motion
wet became lie believed the contract work, ae tho Comptrol
ler also did, was not performed faithfully. The repi?t of
the committee, in Ms opinion, did not enow that the work
1 ad teen faithfully performed. If they had. he woold be will
ing to give Mr. Reynoida Lb walking ticket. The committee
v anted, not only the Comptrtller to atop all proceeding!
landing under til direction relative to tne contract of the
auid M m. B. Reynolds, tot they require him to draw hie
warrant in hi> favor for all amount* doe to liia, with tha
I legal interest on each amount from the time the same becamo
due.
Mr. UoDCKinaoii said that if the Comptroller thourht Mr.
Reynoida had been making t<i0 much money out of hia cun
i tracts that was no reason why the Common Council ahould
refuse to pay the turns duo to him by hia contract If Mr.
Reynolds was making a losing job of it, the Comptroller
would hold his securitiea liable. Therefore, in view of those
| facts, ho hoped the report would be acted favorably on.
M. CoMiovaii hoped the resolution attached to the report
of the committee would lie adopted.
Mr. Kkkheot hoped the vote would ba taken on the
ado| ti'n of the report.
Mr. Mathek hoped not. lie wanted some tine to fur
tlier inquire Into the matter.
Mr. Hemvedy bad heard a great deal of talk about this
contract work of Win. B. Reynolds: be had been led to te
lieve that some astounding revelations would be made by
tho Recorder, who was for months investigating those al
leged frauds, and every one thought a great exposition of
frnud would be uade;but as yet nothing bad enlightened them
on the matter except the ineictmunt oftheColliotor of Taxes.
He bad nothing to say in respect to Mr. Reynolds, only if
tl ere waa any fraud in the contract lie should have been
exposed long ago. The Corporation had been doing Mr.
Reynolds a grievous wrong ny placing him in a position
thut waa the means of degrading nim in the eyes of the pub
lic and keeping from him bis money. He was disposed to
make sound examination into the matter as well as anyother
mun.and if the gentleman of the Fifty-seven (Msther) would
promise te bring him the Recorder's notes of his examina
tion, then he wonld vote in favor of reporting papers only.
But if there wai nothing in all this talk about a great
fraud being committed ? nothing but sheer Bomoombe? then
those who accused Mr. Reynolds should come forward and
confess that they were mistaken, and that the contraot was
performed in good faith. He had no doubt but what a great
many frauds could be laid bare, but he thought the most
important thing wonld be to bsisg forward those men to
tho public eye who had calculated to convict the guilty.
Month after month was spout in bringing up wit
nepFes to prove a fraud, yet nothing came out of it
except an empty tag of wind. The Recorder bad
only a month or so to be in office, and if he did not bring tha
matter before the Common Council or a grand jury his
bundles of testimony would go for nothing, and the matter
would just remain in the condition it did a year a?0.
Mr. Mather withdrew his motion, and moved ae a substi
tute: Tbnt the committee do not report in favor of paying
Wm. B. Reynolds. (Lost.)
Mr Mather then moved as an amendment: That the
name of Wm. B. Reynolds be stricken out of the report
wherover it occurrs (Lost.)
It w as then moved by the same, as an amendmoat: That
in case the report was adopted, Mr. Reynolds should not
take nny advantage of the ac tion of the Common Council
by nting it ns an argument in his favor in the Supreme
Court. (I.ost )
Mr. Frve then moved fThat when the eommltteo ri -e they
report in favor of the report and the adoption of the resolu
tion. (Carried.)
The Trades.
MEET1NO OT T1IK PIANOFORTE MAKERS.
A large meeting or the pianoforte makers wa< held on
Tuesday night, at No. 169 Hester street, to sustain a por
tion of their brethren who have thrown up employment
on account of nn attempt to reduce their wages.
Messrs. Bacon & Raven made an attempt to reduce the
pay of the men i numbering forty-seven; in their employ.
The men refused work in con&equence, and tho meeting
on Tuesday night was to sustain them in their strike.
Mr. E. I.. Taylor was called to the chair, and the
minutes of the last meeting were read and approved.
The Fecretarv, Robert L. Thompson, reported the re
ceipts of the last week to support the employes of Bacon
tt Raven while on the strike to be $250.
After some further business of an ordinary nature, the
meeting adjourned.
STRIKE OF THE SHITJOINERS.
The shipjoiners assembled on Tuesday night at Keen's
iTote], corner of Grand and Elizabeth streets, to consider
the steps proper for securing for theTtrade an increase of
wages. Jabez Reeve* was appointed chairman, and Mr.
Montgomery was made secretary. The minutes of the
last meeting were read nnd approved.
The committees appointed to inquire of the different
shops wlio were in favor of the proposed strike, reported
thut a majority of the trade were in favor of higher
?UM.
After some further discussion, it was moved and car
ried, that the shipjoiners strike for $2 50 per day, to
tnl.e effect on and after Monday next, the 10th day of
April, subject to the action of a mass meeting of the
trade, to be held on Friday evening next.
The meeting then adjourned.
Another Steamer Sank on the Mississippi,
SEVENTEEN LIVES LOST.

the steamer Monroe:? The M. left this port for Yazoo
River, heavily loaded with*dry goods and groceries, on
the 24th inst. On the morning of the 27th, between 2
and 8 o'clock, she struck a log at Cowpen Point, about
five miles above Natchez, and sunk in lesB than five
minutes. There were no passengers on board; but the
mate, fifteen deck hand" and firemen, and a negro wo

Naval Intelligence*
Ciurif.-towk Navy Yard. ? Business is extremely dull
at the Oliarlestown Navy Yard. We are informed tliat
the smallest possible number of men is now employed
there ? a smaller number, in fact, than at any time for a
dozen years. The sudden suspension of work on the
sloop-of war John Adams, by orders from Washington,
has caused the discharge of the 300 workmen who were
lately hired in. Not a little grumbling is heard among
the host of mechanics who voted fox our New England
President in hopes to bring on "good times'' at the prin

Notice to Mariners.
ADDITIONAL LIGHTHOUSES AT THE ENTRANCE TO FORT
PHILIP.
The second lighthouse at Shortland's Bluff being new
nearly completed, mariners are requested to take notioe
that on aud alter the first day of January text, a fixed red
light will be exhibited thereon, from sunset to sunrise. The
leading lighthouse tower is built of wood, painted white,
and atanas at an elevation of eighty feet above the level of
the water, bearing from the oentre of the upper lighthouse
on Shortland's Bluff S 33 degrees W, distant six hundred
and seventy feet. The leading light will be seen in ordinary
weather ten milesj to seaward within the bearings of S ,'4 W
round (westerly) SW >4' W. The two lighthouses by day,
and lights by night, kept in one line of bearing, lead in mid
channel between Points Lonsdale and Nepean; but strang
ers aro cautioned not to attempt the entrance by night, nor
against the strength of the ebb tide by day.
BEACON ON SWAN POINT.
Mariners are requested to take notice that a cone-shaped
iron beacon, painted white, elevated fifty feet above the
level of the water, has been erected on Swan Point, bearing
from the low lighthouse on Shortlfnd's Bluff N 41 degrees ?.
Tbis beacon, kept open to tho eastward of the low light
house, leads in clear of Point Lonsdale Reef, and the flag
staff on Shortland's Bluff kept half a cable's length open to
the westward of the low lighthouse leads in cloar of the Cor
sair Rock, and the other sunken dangers lying off Point Ne
San; but in all practicable oases, mariners waiting the
rn of tide, entering or leaving the harbor, are recommend
ed to Xeep.tlio I*uiut Lonedale shore aboard, as the tide
there runs fairer, and in bad weather small vessels Inour
less risk on the Point Lonsdale shore from the tide ripples
than towards Point Nepean. No alteration has taken place
in the upper lighthouse on Shortland's Bluff, which is as
heretofore, a bright stationary light, 109 feet above the level
of the water, teen in ordinary weather 20 miles to seaward,
within the bearings of S round by W to SW by W. The
bearings are by compass, and heights at mean high water.
