The city of New Orleans, through B. F.

Jonas, its attorney, filed in the Superior District Court yesterday nineteen suits Against sundry parties, delinquent license payers of 1875. Writs of injunction and provisional seizure have been issued. Mr. Joseph McCulloch, connected with the New Orleans Gas Works, crossed the ocean recently from Glasgow to New York, in the steamship Pennsylvania, Capt. Knight, of the State Line.

The storm which swept with such fury over the Northern lakes struck the steamer on the morn ing of the 10th and continued for twenty three hours. The first mate of the vessel was caught by a wave which swept the vessel fore and aft, and was only saved from being cairied into the sea by being thrown against; the rigging, which he managed to cling to until assistance came. He was found to be terribly bruised when taken down into the cabin. The Pennsylvania arrived at New York on the evening of the 16th having occupied thirteen days in making the passage, which she usually accomplishes in ten days or less. A wealthy miner, Herr Jacob Mayer, recently died in Germany and left hie property of a million dollars to the Catholic Church.

Some of the New York papers are beginning to cry out against the lavish" expenditure of money for church music in Gotham. The total cost of all the choirs is said to be not less than $500,000. The highest price paid an organist is $2500, and singer $1500, the latter sum being paid to Miss Imogene Brown of St. Bartholomew.

They have a youths' savings society, in San Francisco. The depositors are all boys and are entitled to receive five cen ts a month premium for every dollar The bank is a large box, pierced with slits on. top, which lead into compartments below. Each depositor has a compartment, and at the end of each. month, the manager comes around, and takes it out.

A depositor then withdraws his money, or leaves it to be deposited in a popular bank. It is attached to the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society. 1 i Orleans Grange No. 53, Patrons of Husbandry, meet every Friday evening, at 7 o'clock, at No. 163 Camp street, over the Bible House.

The Sheridan Alack Combination gave another of their pleasant entertainments last nigbt. 8ongs, vdances, character sketches, instrumental music, and a general lawlessness of mirth prevailed throughout the programme.

The ladiea of the Crescent City Belief Association have generously determined to devote one half the net proceeds of their entertainment for the surviving wounded of the 14th September, to be given at St. Patrick's Hall, October 5th, to the relief of the Batterers by the late storm on the Texas cost. The thought is a happy one, and we are sure it meets with the full indorsement of our warm hearted community. 'Another Prize Won. Mrs.

Mary By an, residing on Frenchmen street, between? Love and Craps streets, was the lucky holder of one fourth the combination ticket which drew the capital prize, four thousand dollars, in the last Wednesday drawing of the Louisiana Lottery.

NEW ORLEANS, VARIETIES THEATRE. The Washington Artillery En tertainment Aid for the Texas The entertainment given under the auspices of the Washington Artillery last evening at the Varieties Theatre for the benefit of the sufferers by the recent storm" which desolated the Texas coast, was attended by an assemblage which, in point of numbers and respectability, has been rarely surpassed in this city. The well deserved popularity of the military association, the attrao five nature of the performance, and the high reputation of those who participated in it, were some of the ini ducements that drew together this immense audience but over and above these considerations there was the benevolent object of the enter tainment, which was powerful to impress the kind hearts of our philanthropic citizens. Consequently there was a turnout en masse, and an hour before the curtain rose every available seat in the theatre was occul pied.

I The representation of ladies was very largei and there were many whoy for want of seats, were content to stand during the performance. Gradually, as the assemblage grew in eize, the last comers filled up the vacant epaces around the walls and the aisles between the sections of the auditorium. The number of persons in the theatre was probably over two thousand, and this is a low estimate. At length the overture by thj orchestra having been concluded, the curtain rose on the farce of the Two Buzzards, of which the following was the cast Hcnjamin Buzzard, Mr. O.

S. Babcock; Glimmer. Mi Harry Pickles; John Small, Mr. H. Beanham Lucretia Buzzard, Miss E.

Blnmenthal Sally, Miss" Stroud back. These roles were rendered with admirable effect, and tin; acting of Mr. Beanham was particularly excellent. The audience wa kept in a continual flutter of merriment by the humorous eccentricity ofQhe young man who knew "ai thing or two," and had always an, eye open or the author of his being." The scene, "The Wounded Sol which Mr. F.

N. Thayer assumed the title role, Pickles and George Stern also participating; was a most affecting episode of the performance. Mr. Thay4r seems to have perfectly mastered the personation of the dying soldier, artd throws into it a pathos that warms the coldest sensibilities. The seen was an exhibition of emotional power that deeply influenced the audience.

Mr. Marks Kaiser, the noted young violinist of our city, contributed to the entertainment a delightful solo, Fantaisie sur la Muette de by Allard. New Orleans may well feel proud of the musical genius of Mr. Kaiser, and the exquisite skill he now displays is but the introduction to future triumphs. It is evident that his natural gifts have been coil tivated by constant until he has become a musician of remarkable power.

We take pleasure in recording our appreciation of the flute eolo Home, weet Horn with variations by Mr. Adolphe Li This gentleman is. a native Belgian, graduate of the Conservatory of Brux and ex Hate soloist of his Majesty the King of Belgium. introduction of the Bonnie Blhe Flag" in his flute solo "was" a veiry happy effect and most appropriate to the occasion. It was a souvenir only, but it percolated the music with rare delicacy, preserving an individuality of expression which discriminated it from the body of the solo.

To say that Home, Sweet Home," as ren dered last night, was a perfect triumph of instrumental art, is only to record the united verdict of the overt, flowing, audience, gathered at Washington Artillery entertainment. Mr. Li vain was last year a member of the Opera House orchestra, and is this season engaged for the St. Charles Theatre. He is a painstaking artist of high merit, and having come among ns to stay, takes a warm interest in all that concerns the welfare of our community.

He played, free of charge, at every chari table concert given here last year; and to his credit it may De said that he is always ready to lend his valuable talent to any cause which may advance the charities of our people. The farce of "Box' arid Cox," in which Mr. Theo. A. James represented Box, Mr.

Thayer Cox, and Miss Blnmenthal, Mrs. Bouncer, was a very fair piece of and Mr. James's personatfoh'of Box was particularly excellent. i The performance with the "Camp Scene" and the famous chorus, Upide," sung by the whole battalion. And last of all, the beautiful tableaux, arranged by Mr.

There is a disposition on the part of our people to make generous contributions to the cause, and the association, through its active committees, will doubtless be the means of speedily alleviating a vast amount of suffering along the stricken Texas coast. Let us all give with unstinted hand; In this connection we may state that Col. S. H.

Bernard Dittel, the keeper of a cigar stand in the Gen. Quitman Ex change, corner Ursulines and Peter streets, Second District, was yester i day shot in the back and mortally wounded by a man named Frank Romeo, alias Dago Fiank, alias Nine Fingered Frank. The man Romeo, it appears, haS been in the habit of leaving his Deringer pistol at the bar of the saloon, and calling for it from time to time. Yesterday he went in after his weapon about a quarter to o'clock in the afternoon. He walked to the bar, and, while talking to Dittel, the cigar vendor, in a friendly manner, asked the barkeeper to give him his The barkeeper at once banded over the pistol to Romeo, who seized hold of it with his left hand and attempted to put it into the ide pocket of his coat on the right hand side.

In his attempt to effect this the weapon accidentally exploded, the contents, a number of buckshot, taking effect in the back' of DitteJ, who had just turned his body arounu at that moment. The load lodged in the vertebra of the spinal column. As the wounded man fell, Romeo exclaimed, "Dias mio! diasmio! jo fie matte!" My God! my God! I have killed the man He then left tbie scene, and, walking across the street, passed through the market and disappeared. Dr. Berjor, residing on Dauphine street, was called in, and, after extracting one of the shot, declared the wound mortal.

A few minutes after, rhe wound had been dressed the. doctor discovered that both, of the tioor fellow's legs were; already paralyzed from the wounding of the spinal column. Washington BELIEF FOB THE SUFFERERS IX TEXAS. In response to a call made by Col J. B.

Walton, commanding the bat talion Washington Artillery, there as a good attendance yesterday, at 10 o'clock, at the arsenal, No. 9 Perdido street. Col. Walton etated the object for which the meeting had been called, and the members thereupon unanimously agreed that the proceeds of the entertainment which took place last night should be donated for. the relief of the suffering people pf our sister State of Texas.

The action of the battalion in thus' moving so promptly in the great work of charity now in hand, is characteristic of the men who served, so faithfully and so gallantly during the late war, from its inception to the close.
