The Southern Historical Paper -
This valuable and interesting periodi
cal for May is on our table, and as usual
is full of historical incidents and remi
niscences of the late war from a South
ern stand-point. The most noticeable
features)of this number are "The Descent
of Gen. R. E. Lee from King Robert
Bruce of Scotland;" the Dedication of
the Army of Northern Virginia Associ
ation Tomb, and unveiling of the Jack
son Stature at New Orleans; Description
of the Scene and Monument: Verbat
im report of the Fpeech of President
Davif; Origin af the "Lone Star" and
the coat of arms of Texas. General
JLirby Smith's campaign in Kentucky in
1862. Reminiscences of the A. N. V.
Capture of Winchester and rout of Banks,
We would not be without a copy of this
valuable work and we.think it the duty
of every Southern man who has the abil
ity to do so to become a subscriber; but
especially do we think it obligatory up
on every Library Association or Literary
Society in eaph Southernjcommunity, for
the sake of truth and justice, to become
the repository of this important work.
The cost is a mere trifle, only $3.00 per
annum, and would be a far better invest
ment than trashy novels which last for a
season and are soon worn out and
thrown aside.

The Lease of the Opera House
Mayor Smith and Aldermen Worth
and Chadbovrn, Committee on Public
Buildings, visited the Opera House this
moraiag, together with k Captain E. J.
Pennypacker, the lessee of the same, to
take an inventory of the amount of city
property contained therein, and also to
examine into the condition of said prop
erty preparatory to awarding the build
ing for a term of five years lease to the
highest bidder, whom the committee shall
adjudge the.most reliable and trustworthy
in carrying tut the provisions of the con
tract or the terms cf the lease. The
Committee on the lease from the Board
of Aldermen, wo learn, meet and open
the bids at the City Hall, either ia the
Court Room or the Auditing Commit
tee's Boom, this evening at 8 o'clock
when the award will be made or the con
tract given out as stated above.
City Court.
Mayor Smith had an unusually large
levee this morniBg, the principal at
tendants at which were first, Georgianna
Gause, sable-hued, charged with disor
derly comduct ; $1.00 fine or two days'
imprisonment was the way His Honor
disposed of this case.
Addia Harriss another very dark
brunette, for disorderly conduct, was
made to suffer the penalty of one dollar
fine or take the alternative of lodging
two days at the city's expenses in a cell
Frances Moore and Delia Gardner,
two denizens of Paddy's Hollow, were
arraigned upon the charge of an affray
The former was fined $1.00 and the lat
ter released without damage to her fair(?)
name and character beyond what it has
already suffered.
There was still another case of a per
son whom the charge recorded against is
abusing a police officer while in the dis
charge of his duty. The sentence of the
Court being;only $2.00,fine, and not at all
commensurate with the offence charged,
if proved, we omit any further mention
of the matter, Inasmuch as we were un
able to be present and hear the evidence
at the trial.
' In reference to the last case reported
above we feel satisfied that Mayor
Smith will act up to the full measure of
the responsibilities of his oath and con
scientiously and faithfully discharge the
duties of his office in every instance.
But a policeman should be protected
while on duty from insult or obloquy;
this is the only point we desire to make.
The position of an officer on the city
force is not altogether nnlike that of a
sentinel in the army and for the
eentinel on pest General Lee
always enforced the strictest regard and
respect both by positive orders from
army headquarters and personal exam
ple. He contended it was the highest
duty of a soldier and should command
respect from officers and men alike.
And so it is, though in a less degree
perhaps, with the guardians of the
peace and good order of a city. They
should be respected by all jreod citizens
from love of law and order, and by
others from fear of the penalty attached
to a violation of the law. If a police
man knows that he is sustained by au
thority in the discharge of hia duty, if a
eood officer, he will perform that duty
both fearlessly and honestly, knowiig
that whatever the consequences may be
he will be protected by those who en
trusted him with the authority to act,
provided of course always that the officer
does not exceed that authority and be
come himself a violator of the law.

Excorslon To Morrow.
The excursion down the river on the
steamer Passport for the benefit of St,
Paul's Lutheran Church, to-morrow,
bids fair to be a very successful and en
joyable affair. The young folks will
trip the decks, keeping time with the
music, while the older portion of the ex
cursionists will help them out and show
them how to dance. Thewell-known
ability of the committee is a sufficient
guarantee that nothing will be lacking
to make the day one of rare pleasure.
Mirth and enjoyment will prevail, but
liquor and rude behaviour will not be
tolerated.
