The event i which is commemorated in Xonisiana to day was; actually the only, bright spot in the entire history of the war of '1812 14 with Creat Britain, and this battle was fought fifteen days after the signing of a treaty? to establish peace between the two nations, but before information was hacL. In 1S12, and for years ail the countries of Europe were in arms and engaged in ferocious warfare, of which the great Napoleon was the central figure and the dominating force. In the course of this warfare, Great Britain blockaded the rrench continental and colonial ports, and seized all American vessels found trading thereto. Great Britain also Calmed and exercised the right to search American i vessels at sea for sailors who were alleged to be British subjects, and' executed this search even 'on United States ships of war. Moreover, the British in Canada kept the Northern tribes of IndianB stirred to hostility against the people of the United States, and, as a consequence, exceedingly bitter feelings were engendered between the people of the two countries.

Many indignities were endured by the American Government before the alternative of war was resorted to, and after the war was begun it met but a poor support, particularly in New where it was strongly opposed by the Federalist party. The Uederalista published an address against tho war. The Massachusetts Legislature passed in. 1813 an act remonstrating ngainst the continuance of war, and In 1814 a convention of twenty six delegates from the several New England States met at Hartford to. urge on New England an Independent action, without regard to the United States Government.

It is not surprising that such a. 'condition of affairs the fortunes of the United States in the war were far from prosperous. Not only were hostilities in progress between Great Britain and the United States, but through British influence the Indian savages, from Canada to Alabama, were all at war with the whites. Everywhere, with a few isolated exceptions, the United States forces met with failure, and often with complete disaster on land. A victory by General over the British and Indians at the battle of the Thames, in Canada, and the victory of Brown and Scott at Niagara Kails, or Jundy's Liane, were about the only.

exceptions. The British captured Michigan and occupied the Northern ports and territories along the; great lakes; they captured and burnt the national capital, Washington City, nd then blockaded the ports and ravaged the coast at their pleasure. On the water the record was more cheering. The splendid victories of Ferry, on JUake Erie, and McDonough, on lAke Champlain; of Hullon the Atlantic, and of Tor ter, on the Facilic, assisted to vary the monotony of defeat; but it was only the brilliant and extraordinary defense of New Orleans that redeems the annals of the war from the gloom and humiliation which they record. It is needless here to recite its details so often repeated.

It was a bat ti hatmxm the trained trooos of Eu rope, and the backwoodsmen and hunt era of America, The cnoicsst regiments, had won glory on many a field of European warfare, were now to meet complete and overwhelming defeat at the hands of the buckskin clad hunters and hardy woodsmen of Tennessee and Mlssiasippi and. the Creoles of Louisiana. Here were the men who had conquered the wilderness and 'won it from the wiM beast and the more savage Indian, they were to overthrow on plains of Louisiana what may well be considered in their day "the best trained soldiers in' the world And so the battle of Jan. hi the environs of New Orleans, stands and will stand forever as one of the most dramatic actions, one of the most brilliant and striking passages and one of the most complete victories in the annals of modern war. To day there are no resentmepts cherished, no bitter feelings remembered.

There is only a 'recollection of the heroism, bravery and patriotism in a great emergency of the men who, a hundred years ago, founded an empire with free institutions in the country south of the Ohio Kiver and west of the Alleghany Mountains They were not many in numbers, but they were mighty in deeds. nooDLonsM and education. The friends of public education, and every citizen should be one, do not need to go beyond the real merits of their theme to find arguments to support the inestimable value and importance of the redemption of the whole people from the curse of illiteracy. The great benefit to be derived from educating the people lies in the fact that all are given an opportunity to reach their best development. In this age of progress and scientific discovery, a person who cannot read write Is necessarily placed at a most serious disadvantage.

The free schools are intended to give the essentials of an education to every person, and particularly to those who are unable," for lack sf means to buy the requisite instruction, and to this extent to give to all a fair foundation for further culture. So noble and righteous a benefaction does not need argument, since it shows for itself, nor does it need to be bolstered up by feeble assumptions. Eor instance, it is of ten' claimed that crime, is the outgrowth of Ignorance, and that the remedy for it is to educate the people. There is a great deal that is incorrect in such an assumption. Crime is most largely to be considered in the light of morals and of the law, and it has but a secondary relation to mental culture.

It has been said that hoodlumism is chiefly, if not wholly, the result of Ignorance and illiteracy, and that education would be the right remedy for it. We think that such an assumption, so far as hoodlumism fn this city is concerned, is not woil founded. We believe, with good reason, that the great majority of the hoodlums in New Orleans will be found to have received. an education in private or public schools. So far from being they are extensively read ih the 'sensational and 'pernicious literature whose heroes iare criminals and outlaws" and which teaches that to live without, reork and in defiance of law furnishes about the only field for heroism and notoriety in this age of laborious digging and delving.

Men and beys of the hoodlum class are far from being illiterate, and it is entirely possible that if they had never been able to read the pestilential literature with which they have debauched their minds they would be actually better off, mor ally and pecuniarily. As we have heretofore shown, the Jioodlum in a city corresponds to the self styled desperado or "bad man" of the frontier settlements, He wants to, pose as a dangerous person "the howler from or "the cayote from Carrion Creek." He may be a tighter, or a coward and braggart, but be is always a worthless loafer. He is a curse to the community in which he is found, and if he is a criminal it is from' sheer wantonness. When such a fellow becomes so troublesome that the frontier people can no longer endure him, they hang him up to the end of a rope or shoot his worth tSS Xaa6 Such," are the characters that are chosen for the heroes of so many of the cheap and poisonous stonea in circulation among American youth, and those young fellows who become tainted with the poison, If they cannot actually go to the frontier to become "bad men," like those 'in. the story books, remain at home and turn hoodlums.

Their object is to live without work, to express at all times their contempt for plain, industrious people, and to despise' and resist the law and its ministers. We insist that Intellectual edncation Is not the remedy for hoodlumism, but work is what is required. A four years' cruise at sea on a whaling ship was formerly the medicine that was administered to turbulent and unruly boys, and with the best effect. It made men of them or killed them. But this remedy is no longer available.

There are few whale sMps in Uis of kerosene oiL and there are no long sailing voyages in this day of steamships. Most of the hoodlums have the making of men in them if they could be made to work under discipline. It would be a good Idea to condemn every hoodlum convicted in the courts to a term of service on board of the naval ships. This is better than sending them to the penitentiary to become confirmed criminals. What these fellows need is compulsory work, not compulsory education.

THE ALGIERS DRY DOCK. Among the bills now before Congress In which this city is interested, one of the most important is that providing an appropriation for the construction of a dry dock at Algiers. This bill passed the Senate last session through the persistent efforts of the late Senator Gibson, and has already, been favorably reported on by the House Committee on Naval Affairs. The bill may, therefore, be considered to occupy a favonble position, and would undoubtedly pass Fhould it come up for consideration. 1 The task of getting the bill before the House for consideration is a dim cult problem, however, and if it be permitted to take its regular course it could jaever hope to receive at tention, because the seven or eight weeks which remain of the term of the present Congress are more than likely to be monopolized toy appropriation bills and other important matters as may be favored with special dates" by the unanimous consent of the House.

To prevent the bill from being, killed through non action this session, it Is proposed by Congressman Meyer, who has charge of it, and the Chairman of the Naval Affairs Committee, who is friendly to its passage, to ask the Committee on Hules to a date in the near future for the calling up of such bills in charge' of the Naval Affairs Committee as that committee may see fit to place before the House for final action, It is hoped that in this way the Algiers dry dock bill can be got before the House, whereas if unanimous consent and depended on, the bill, which carried with it' a considerable, appropriation, would te sure to meet with objections from Mr. Holman, or some other of the ultra economists in the House of Representatives. It is greatly to be desired that the efforts of Kepresentative Meyer and his colleagues of the Naval Affairs Committee may prove successful, as a naval dry" dock here would prove of great advantage to the port of New Orleans, and would open the way for the establishment here ultimately pf a regular navy yard, a convenience which the Government needs on the Gulf Coast. PROPOSED CONTENTION OP LTIMBEB MEN. The Louisiana Builder and Heal Estate Index, special trade paper published in the city and devoted to the building and real estate interests, has completed its first 'olume and has commenced its second year, it is the official organ of the Mechanics, Dealers and Lumbermen's Exchange, and occupies with ability and usefulness an important field of industry.

It shows signs of prosperity, and the ficayune is glad, to hear that it is winning success and popularity. It is conducted by a company of which Colonel TV. HVC Kobihson Is President, H. Wellmann is Vice President, and S. G.

De lisle is Secretary and Treasurer. It is under the editorial direction of Messrs. VV. V. Curtis and C.

Kanlett. Prominent in the issue for Jan. 7, among other interesting matters is an editorial article suggesting" an association of the Louisiana manufacturers and exporters of yellow pine lumber with those of the Gulf States to the east of us. The producers of this sort of lumber in Florida and Alabama have organized a combination for the advancement of trade interests, and it is held that the organization should include all the millmen and lumber handlers from the Sabine Kiver to the east coast of Florida, and not only these, but those of Texas as welL There is to be in this city on fhe 13th of February a meeting of the Association of Cypress Lumbermen, and it is being urgejd that there is time enough to get the yellow pine men here, too. The suggestion seems to be eminently proper and timaly, and the Picayune willingly, offers encouragement and friendly offices in aid of the project.

tSuch a convention as is proposed would, without doubt, redound to the benefit of all concerned in it v' STATE AUTHORITI TERSUS CITT y' y.M ARROGANCE. 'V Whatever" may be tba "outcome of the mistrial in the case of the Statu against Superintendent of Police Caster, fact seems to have been pret ty plainly i determined judicially" that the police force of the city Is under State control in respect to the enforcement of the criminal statutes cf the State. This principle was uneqaivocal ly declared from the bench, and there is good reason to believe that it is sound In law as well as necessary to the administration of the State statutes concerning crimes in the. city. Certainly the Mayor is authoritative in his control over the police in respect to city ordinances, and the'Mayor has power to pardon persons who have been convicted under city regulations; but when a statute of the State comes up for consideration the Mayor has' no power to oppose and obstruct its execution.

4f he has no power to suspend or modify the enforcement of a State law, plainly he has no power to authorize the'poliee to do so. Then the Chief of Police cannot excuse his own laches and neglect in the premises by pleading orders from the Mayor. Such, in effect, is the ruling of the judges of the Criminal District Court sitting en banc, and it nhould be' considered authoritative iu the future. Chief Gaster must now realize that, in accepting the Mayor, as superior or paramount in dictating his conduct in regard to a criminal statute of the State of he has come dangerously near to serious punishment through sentence of the State Criminal Court The Mayor, too, should realize that by assuming a power superior to that of the State in enforcing State lawa he has come dangerously near to precipitating upon a too obedient servant criminal punishment and an igno tniniouS fate. But the end of this case has not yet come.

There may yet more of it than the city authorities will relish. The State is sovereign and the city is subject. It is like bearding a lion for the city to assume naperior airs in the premises. THE CRISIS. Several weeks have now elapsed since the Panama Canal scandal precipitated trouble in French politics, and the dangers of the uituation, instead of diminishing, have gradually increased, until there can now be doubt but that republicanism in France is ace to face with a grave crisis.

The fact that there has as yet been no violent outbreak is no proof that the gravity of the aituation has been overdrawn; but, on the contrary, the apparent good order is an evidence that those who are conspiring against the Government are feeling their way slowly, and are not 'willing to risk the chance of success by the premature explosion of the 'attempt they are evidently preparing. In the meantime the French Government, instead of proceeding vigorously and confidently, is stumbling along In the dark, to be confronted almost daily with fresh revelations besmirching the reputations of prominent supporters. These carefully timed exposures serve to keep alive the popular ferment and are gradually undermining confidence in republican institutions. The masses of the French people are apparently unwilling to disassociate, the republic inself from jtho corrupt personality of the men who have been shaping its destinies. The present purpose, therefore, of the French reactionaries is not to cause an immediate revolution, but to gradually cut away the mainstays of the republic by destroying popular confidence in the men at the head of affairs, so that when the conspiracy is ripe and circumstances are favorable the final blow can be struck with better chances of its being The general elections in France are now but a few weeks off, and the Monarchists) are very evidently preparing to make a suprame effort to then regain possession cf the Government.

If they can improve the exist ing popular discontent so as to elect a large number of deputies, their, chances of successfully overthrowing the republic would be greatly increased. Besides, without the active support of the army, the only hope of success Is in a popular convulsion which might place a large number of royalists in the of Deputies. It is 'more than probable, therefore, that the Panama Canal exposures will bo kept up until the eve of the elections. Druggists Profits." Some time ago there was a movement Inaugurated. In Parts to establish drug stores where drugs could be had at a small advance over the cost price.

This did not suit the established druggists, and" their opposition has several times gone as far as rioting in some of the new establishments. This state of affairs has brought out some very Interesting statements as to the profits made by the old time druggists. With them, it appears, fixed prices" are unknown, and the profits may vary between 60 per cent and several thousands per cent, according to the kind of goods sold, or the presumed social position, or the purchaser. Antipy rine costs at wholesale 120 francs per kilogramme, while the retail price varies from 800 francs up to 4000 francs; bicarbonate of soda costs 40 centimes, and is sold for 2 francs, 8 francs and more; bromide of potassium Is 5 francs to the dealer, and 16 francs at least to the public; sulphuric ether Is also 16 francs to the public, although it costs only 2 francs 23 centimes; sulphate of quinine is 60 francs or thereabouts, but by the time the public get It Is 700 francs. Prescriptions yield, of course, even more profit Ko charge less than a franc and a half is made, even if the bottle contains nothing but distilled water.

Of course such extortion is unknown on this side of the Atlantic, though It Is a very costly thing to be sick, even here. The Gold Bullet Mines. It Is related that some years ago Burgeon Brayton, of the army, was captured by the Tonto Apaches and held for some time a prisoner in a secluded camp among the Tonto mountains of Western Arizona. By his "skill in treating the sickness among them, he won their regard and gratitude, and they took him Into a deep ravine among the hills, where was a small, running stream, and allowed him to work the auriferous gravel, which he found there, for gold. It was so rich that he soon filled his pockets with large nuggets.

He knew that several bullets taken from the bodies of soldiers wounded in encounters with these Indians, and preserved In the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, were made of gold, and concluded that they had showed him the mine where they procured the metal, i Soon afterward he made his escape, and succeeded In reaching Fort Turn a. iie has led several expeditions since In search of this fabulous mine, but strange to say, he has never been able to find it Old miners now think that It Is somewhere in the neighborhood of the newly discovered San nan diggings, and say that when discovered It will undoubtedly prove the richest mine that was ever known. A Laudable Enterprise. The St Louis Republic is a great newspaper, worthy of the support of that city. One of its latest enterprises la to load up several wagons with coal, and send them around to distribute it free to the suffering poor who are not able, to buy for themselves.

Of course the paper does not assume the whole expense of the enterprise, but asks contributions for that end from those who are able to give, but it puts up very liberal subscription to start the business and assumes the labor and responsibility of the distribution. It la a. worthy charity, and no doubt will be liberally supported. New so called remedies spring trn' every day like ronsbroome; but the people stall cling to Dr, Bull's Conga Syrup. II Alt RI ED.

Our ear dimmed eyes in vain ws strain to see, your cheery face; The old home now Is lonely, and this world seems dark and drear All things are ch toged around us, since we lost you, mother, dear. We know the grim reaper, death, spares neither young or' old. Yet when we pressed ear.

fare wen kiss on mother's II pa, so cold. We could not help but feel it was a rather cit.el fate That hearts that lire and lore should thus be forced to separate. But we'll meet again, dear mother, on God's eternal shore. And by His goodness and His mercy we will live forever more; There will be no mors sad partings no death can enter there, For all is love and joy and peace and freMom from all care. THB FAMILY.
