Lazare was about eighteen year.o age, and for a few months back, to the great sorrow and disap? ointment of his mother, had been -going "ixt' very bad company. His mother had reprimanded him several times, and at each reprimand he endeavored to take his own but had been prevented from so doing by his friends.

Last night, however, his mother, who had' discovered that neither her entreaties nor her threats had any effect upon him, reprif mantled him in a more severe manner than usual. Lazare left the house at about 8 o'clock, and sat on the bench1 of the etore situated on the corner of Franklin and Poydra8 streets, half a bloek from his mother's house, crying. He was there met by one of his friends, who asked him what was the matter, to which he answered, Nothing, but I'll kill myself." Hi friend remarked to him that-he wanted to do that again, and that it was foolish. He then asked for' a piece of paper, on which he wrobai the following note I wish my friends good Iuck and hap-' pines; as for myself I wish to retire yl" from this life. Emile E.

Full Particulars.

Mary Estelle, a colored woman who was arrested Wednesday, at P. M.t charged with cutting and mortally wounding on the head with a hatchet, one August, at his residence No. 34G street, wasbrought-before Recorder Long -yesterday and sent to the Parish Prison without tho, privilege of bail. The prisoner being interviewed stated that she was innocent of the crime against her, and that August, or Pa Gistin," as. she calls him, had been talking in the street for some time with two men whom she does not know.

That one of them struck the old man over the head with something like a stick with large ball upon the end of it that she heard the old man say ijie1 fan tbey struck' me that she then went up to him and she herself was struck over -the head with a stick by one of the same inen-The woman's clothes were covered 'with blood, and she stated at the ysx- amination before Judge: Long-that the "blood came from the wound on her head. The Judge, however, had her head examined and not the slightest trace of a bruise could be found. From several persons in the neighborhood our reporter- obtained thb following particulars It appears that the prisoner, Mary Estelle, had been the paramour of th deceased for several years, bat the two had separated. Auguste was livf- ixtg in the little shanty, 31Q Robertson street, which had been given him 3V Judge apian tier, with the privilege of staying there during his lifetime. Vor a few days past, both he and the prisoner, who occupies a room back of a dwelling situated in th rear of the lot of ground on which Auguste resides, had fbeen quarreling, and on Wednesday night it appears she went to his room and asked him why he.

did not go to his supper He left the room for a mo ment, and when he returned found his wearing apparel and bed clothes missing. He went back to Estelle' room to claim them, and the difficulty which ended so fatally was the result of his visit. Maria Louise, the little daughter of the said, that she WtbS sleeping in her mother' room, when she was aroused by what she supposed was a slap given to some one. She looked and saw her mother and deceased quarreling, and being accustomed to that went back When she awoke again, from the noise outside, she saw her, mother standing by a police and Auguste lying on the ground; with a pool of blood about him and hatchet by his side. There was, it appears, another wo-: man with Estelle at the time of the! difficulty, but she disappeared when; toe neighbors were aroused, saying' f'l won't have anything to do with' The unfortunate victim of Charity Hospty-wo boars after he had been wonnded.

C. W. Howell, Corps of Engineers, in which it la frecomniended that the excavation be made li feet deep, the estir, mate for which is 20. Accompanying the report is a letter from C. A.

Whitney agents of 'MoiganVline of Texas and New Orleans steamers, to Ca p. Howell, from which the following is gleaned In regard to the advantages which will accrue to the State of Texas and the adjacent country through the opening of a 'navigable 1 channel through Salvestort Bay, allowing the passage of vessels of ten to twelye feet draft, we will -state that such channel will at once throw open a large section of country, now oqly reached by railroad or craft adapted to inland navigation, within reach bf seagoing vessels. r. Through the medium of this proposed passage' and Buftalo Bayou, steam and sail seagoing craft of the above draft will be enabled to proceed within a few miles of the city of Houston, fifty miles distant by rail from Galveston, landing and receiving cargoes which now have to seek much more costly methods of transportation to reach the seaboard. Houston being in direct communication with St.

Louis by two lines of railroad, the entire country through which they pass is deeply interested in the opening of this new route to the sea. In onr own business between this port and Texas, all the freight destined to Houston and interior points on the railroads referred to, we are compelled to land at Galveston; the cost of transportating same between Galveston and Houston quite equals that between New Orleans and Galveston. i With this channel, opened and onr steamers enabled to proceed direct to the terminus, of the railroad, a few miles -below Houston, competition will soon reduce the expense of transportation hence to Houston to same rates as now charged to Galveston, aside from which the entire country back of Houston will at once be open to access from all parts, of the world wherever vessels of ten or twelve feet draft can be used.

I St. Iiri Kepnfcllcaa.l Washington; Jan. 2. The effort of the caucus to arrest the rapid demoralization of the Republican party lesulted to-day as it was predicted it would, in signal failure. The resolution to repeal the rule requiring a two-third vote on Monday, and unanimous consent on other days to take bills up out of order, and to make all dilatory motions out of order which had been adopted by the Republican house caucus on Satnrday night, was presented early in the day by Cessna, of 'Pennsylnania.

Great confusion and excitement followed for a few minutes, dozens of people rising in all parts of the hall to make points of order, the most interesting of these being an- inauiry of Sunset Cox whether it would not be in order to move to. suspend all the rules and go home. The Democrats, however, were 1 quite anxious that the Republicans should have an opportunity to show their hands on Cessna's extraordinary proposition, and so the previous question was quickly ordered by a vote of TiGtotsO. The vote on suspending the rules to permit the consideration of the resolution was then taken by yeas and nays, the name of each one of the leading Republicans being listened for with intense interest to learn how he would vote. Sufficient of these were counted among the noes daring the calling of the roll to indicate that the caucus mandate 1 had not achieved its purpose, so that the Speaker's announcement that the vote stood 150 ayes and J)8 noes, two-thirds not voting in the affirmative, the motion was lost, excited no surprise.

Deep chagrin was visible in the countenances, and the maledictions strong and fervent which fell from'the lips of the Southern Republicans, however, at what they chose to term the base perfidy of their pretended friends. These men who dared disobey the commands ot King Caucus are, however, the very life and brains of the Republican party, representing not only tho most of its respectability, but also the niaior part. of -its intellect.
