New Orleans, on thu 18th day of
January.
HP Favorable news from Liver

effect of advancing prices for cotton
in New Orleans from 3 to .0 cents.
W Detroit ladies we regret to ob

whisky in their crinoline.
Jost think of a woman with whisky
under her crinoline, a waterfall on her
head, and rats and mice in her hair I
Mobile Timet.
To help to fill up the picture just
add the " Susy-ana " fancy touch of a
" buckwheat cake in her mouth—a
teardrop io her eye," and how muoh
more modelistic," pathetic and pcrfcct
her toute entemble would appear.
ÖT" Gleaner," the correspondent
of the Picayune, writes from the par

The yield of the cane is quite sat
isfactory, reaching in Borne instances
1,500 and 2,000 pounds an acre. On
several plantations sugar making is
over already.
Thus far this fall, 1,021 hhds.
sugar, 1,885 barrels molasses, 2,175

The "Boston Post ."—This is one of
the oldest, ablest and most worthily
conducted journals in the United
States. The high-toned character of
its editorials, breathing sentiments of
good will and forbearance toward the
South and reflecting in their political
tone a complexion of opinions and
feelings free from the insane tossing*
of passion jealousy and hate, lias long
since secured for the Pout, a lygli rank
among the leading and influential
journals of the nation.
We commend the Pott to all who
would like to subscribe to one of the
very best and most deserving papers
in the North. They will find it nn
acceptable vehicle of political, literary
and news miscellany ; and as for its
downright original epigrammatic es.
says of wit, the bare mention that
Gmkne is still at his old helm, is
enough said.
We insert elsewhere, the propectus
of the Pott giving terms of subscrip
tion, Ac.

originally learned the trade of a tailor
may reasonably be thought "sound on
the goose-"
A but Jo*«.—Tho following is told of
i. B. Mafruder :
While »treating from tbe i'enlniula in
1868, the General and his staff stopped at
tb« house of a widow lady on the road,
and »gaged dinner. In a low moment»
Jim Phelps, a Louisiana soldier, accosted
tho Udjr with: "Madam, can 1 get din
ner J" "Yes, sir," was the reply, "but as
I sm preparing dinner for Gen. Magrudor
•nd staff, and have not room at my table
for More, you will have to wait for a second
tob]«."
"Very well, madam, thank you," said
Phelps, taking his seat in a position to
command a view of the dining-room.
Watching the movements of tho serv
snta, I'holps waited until the feast was on
th«tsbl«; and while the hostess proceeded
to tb% parlor to announce dinner to the
0«n«r»l snd staff, Phelps entered tho din
ing-room, »nd, seating himself at the table,
awaited farther developments.
Upon the entrance of the party of offi
MT«, ther« ws« found to be seats for all but
on«, and on« politely returned to the par
lor to wait. The General took a seat next
to fjMlps, snd, after tho first courso was
finished, turning to Phelps, he inquired :
"Sir, bar* yon any idea with whom you
•r* dining!" No, sir," coolly replied
Phelps. "I uMd to be particular, but since
1 turned soldl«r, I d<?n f tcare a d n who
1 «at with, so that the ylotu»l» sro clean."
fiaktm Vtmecral,
LEGISLATIVE (QUANDARIES.
The complexity and confusion
ordinarily attending modern legisla
tion is rendered still more complex
and confused in our State by the ex
traordinary issues growing out of tbe
revulsions of the late war and the
difficulty of reconciling legislative
action thereon with the varied notions
and opinions of legislators as to the
validity of the Constitution of 1804*
The strange anomaly is presented of
legislators elected with preconceived
ideas and established opinions of the
invalidity of an instrument alike
condemned and repudiated by the
major portions of their several con
stituencies, and yet being sworn in,
taking their seats and engaging
in the usual forms of law-making ;
thus acknowledging, as it were, the
"higher law" power and authority of
that instrument.
The debates which have ensued
in the Legislature on the vexed
questions incident to the contested
Btatus of the Constitution of 1804
aud the relative propositions for
amending that Constitution or call
ing a Convention to frame a new
one, have consumed a large space of
time, without however arriving at
any definitive or satisfactory clear
ing up of the "muddle." Tho Legis
lature continues to ply its accus
tomed functions, whilst the Const itu
tion of 1864, though regarded nomi
nally as in abeyance, remains never
theless, tho actual organic law of the
State.
To have obviated all present and
future intricacies and doubts in points
of legislation, it appears plain that
the first important step precedent to
legislation should have been for (lie
Governor to have called a Conven"
tiou in order <o frame a new Consti
tution, or for the Legislature to have
done so immediately after its organ!
zation ; or elso to have addressed
itself at once to tho work of amend
ment—a process which would have
been far less expensive to tho State
and doubtless equally oflective and
satisfactory.
If, says the True Delta, the Leg
islature now in session has not "re
cognized as valid" the Constitution
of 1864, it would be difficult to im
agine what recognition consists in or
amounts to. The Senators and Re
presentatives were elccted under au
thority granted by the Constitution
of 1804, pursuant to the terms of a
proclamation issued by Gov. Wells,
who claimed all the powers lie exer
cised from that instrument. All the
members took an oath to support the
Constitution of 1864, although many
of them were elected on a platform
which pledged them to take speedy
steps for its abrogation. They have
appropriated money under that Con
stitution; they are legislating on
vitally important matters by the au
thority granted therein, for if they
are not, they have no business to be
in session ; they have elected United
States Senators ; the Governor and
all the other State officers have taken
the oath under the Banks organic
law, and will probably draw their
salaries quarterly in advance (if they
can got the money from an empty
Treasury) with the customary promp
titude of efficient business men. All
the departments of our State Gov
ernment, Executive, Legislative and
Judicial, are organized and working
under the Constitution now in force,
and if that is not a "valid and ac
cepted" recognition of the aforesaid
abominable instrument, as it is popu
larly styled, then words have no
signification and acts no meaning.
We bad hoped that a Convention
would have been called ere this, and
that an adjournment, at least until
tbe period fixed for the commence,
ment of the regular session, would
have taken place. Perhaps wiser
counsels have prevailed thus far, but
we nevertheless suggests again that
a postponement of action thirty or
forty days, until tho current of
events at Washington becomes some
what defined, would bo probably
prudent and judicious.
TIIE LOUISIANA LEGISLATURE.

proceedings, compriso what h^i boon
trnnsuotod of importance since oilrlast re

000 for that rbject. The Speaker announ

tho joint committee to select a site for a
State House, Messrs. Richard*, Eagor, Or
mond, Holt, McCloskoy, Prudhomme and
Smith.
Speculative Prices —The effects
of tho currency inflation continue, ob
serves the National Intelligencer.
They are now visible everywhere
around us, whether we look into our
own personal expenditures, the Gov
ernment expenses, the increase of im
ports and corresponding decrease of
exports, the attempted monopoly of
corn and wheat and of all the means
of living, and both the rise of rents
and of real estate.
Chicago papors disclose to us the
fact that the great granary of tho
country is controlled by speculators,
who can augment the prico of bread
within certain limits. They have
this fall, kept back wheat from mar
ket, and thus was produced the re
markable fact, that, while large
amounts of foreign and domestic
goods were sent to the West for its
consumption, the expected returns in
breadstuff's have not been received
Tho entire West has been, in like
manner, monopolized and held back
for higher prices, and every family
that needs a blanket the coming win
ter will feel the effect, and know the
cause of the high prices to which they
will be subjected.
Imports of goods and merchandize
aro more excessive than ever in
amount, and embrace in large propor
tion the more costly of the luxuries and
exrravagancies of the personal attire,
which are, by the way, addressed to
tho uncultivated and semi-barbarian
tastes of distant Republics, rather than
to tho refined and practical habits
of the European.
Tho country, notwithstanding the
vast imports of the current year, is
bare of goods—not only of luxuries,
but of necessaries—and the imports
for the next four or six months will
be excessive and at even advancing
prices. Why, some one will ask,
does not the inflation, if it exists to
this extent, enhance the price of gold ?
It had yesterday burst the bonds as
signed to it by the Treasury, and rose
to 147 J. The Treasury, commanding
a large amount of gold, has of late re
pressed its advance by throwing it up
on the market whenever it exceeds
144.
A n A uthentic A kecdote .—-Talley
rand was once in tbe company of
Madame do Stael and anothor emi
nent French lady whose name we do
not remember.
"You say charming things to bother
us," said Madame de Stael to him .
"which of us do you like best ?"
The wily statesman artfully replied
that he was delighted with both.
•'Ab I but you prefer one of us."
continued Madame de Stael. ''Sup
pose we wtre'bothdrowingin the Seine
to-night, which of us would you help
first ?"
"I would extend my right hand to
Madame do Stael, and my left to
Madame, yonder."
"Yes; but suppose only one of us
could bo saved, which would you at
tempt to rescue ?"
Talleyrand's diplomacy waB pushed
to its severest test ; but not one whit
discomposed, he turned toMadamede
Stael, aud replied :
"Madame, you, who know so many
things, doubtless know how to swim."
Ve8~ Tho Picayune , in speaking of
the return of J ames R obb Esq., to
New Orelans, says :
" Mr. Robb is about to establish a
National Rank in this city to be called
the Louisiana National Rank of New
Orleans/'with a capital of $1,000,
000, of which $800,000 is taken up
by Messrs. Winslow, Lanier &(Jo., of
New York, and their friends. Two
hundred thousand dollars of the shares
are reserved for the oitixens of New
Orleans.
