'and In nothing has he done a better service than In the bnlldlng.of a new poor bouse, J which will hereafter be known as the "Conn > ty home." ^ The structure Is of brick which brlok were ^ put In the walls by the convicts, under the j direction and supervision of Mr. Luther t Williams and Mr. Andrew Woodhurst. Io t the building are 150,000 brlok, the cost of lay- 8 "^ilng of whlob, outside the oonvlct labor was 1 | only *90. t l . The woodwork was done by oonvlcts In & charge of Mr. Shroeder. ' | ' The plan of the building Is good and all the * | work has been well done. g I ' Tho hntidinsr is ISO feet long, and 38 feet ? ^rl wide, a hallway running through. I I . six rooms are for white people and ten I rooms are lor colored people. Tbe partitions I are of brio*. A wall midway of the building ''separates white and colored tenants. The p ' ' , same roof oovers all, bat the division of tbe | building Into two separate and dlBtlnot parts I makes the whole as practloally two build|; - lags. 5 Preparations are made for laying of the I floors on tar and sand. Floors well laid In I this way are more desirable In many ways I .than when laid on wood olose to the ground. I Tbe room Is warmer, the floor Is more sab J ffttanUfel, and the Adoring will last longer than If pnt down on joists near the groand.

' Of all the legislation tbat has been proposal" ' *edi tbat of keeping bloodhounds for ibe purpose of banting human belngB ,1s most objectionable, If not the most loathsome. It Is objectionable for several reasons : First?Tbe hantlag of a human being by brutes certainly has no tendency to the elevation" of anybody. Seoond?The hunting of a man. by a yelping brate Is offensive, td the better human ^ Instincts, even if it does not lower tbe .public ' ^elf-respect. ?;.' ' .Third?The keeping of dogs has never done *macb In the wav of captaring escaping criminals or In apprehending fugitives from justice. , ,<lfi times of slavery "nigger dogs" were omatlmes kept with which to capture runWay slaves. Shall we now revive the most afojpetlpypble methods of slavery? GEO WEES TOLD TO "STAND PAT," 'President Jordan VTarus Against Devices to Bay Cotton. PV.' *' - Resident Harvle Jordan gave oat an Intereating statement yesterday addressed tp the spot'holders of cotton advising them cot to .. sell, bat to stand pat and,demand the fail price. The statement follows : * -To Spot Holders of Cotton: "Information Is being received at the head ' quarters of the association, Indicating that ( i the same plans are now being pursued by oertaln cotton buyers who are short on their oontracts, that were tried last spring when , i the balanoe of the unsold portion of the crop , was being held for higher ngurea" 1 am already In possession of letters from certain i r Arms addressed to spot holders who have on . hand from 00 to 100 or more bales of oolton In which the following proposition Is made: | j " We are willing th take your ootton at present market prices and advance yoa ten cents , per pound, with the further agreement that . you can demand settlement at any time t>e- j tween now and first of May, taking advantage of any rise In the market that may occur. ( This will relieve you of storage, Insurance . and heavy Interests on borrowed money. If you are willing to trade please let us know by , return mall." The gentlemen who are Bend* } lng out these enticing episues are evidently , abort on their spot dell veer lea for January pud February. They evidently cannot gel ? what tbey want In the open market. Tbey can easily badge against these transactions, It makes no difference which way the market goes. I am also informed that soma of the . mills are also trying to borrow ootton in (heir neighborhoods on pretty much the ' same kind of proposition. Spot holders are warned against these in . genlous devices. If the spot ootton passes In- , % so the hand* of the buyers and mills the , . strength of the market will be wiped out. , There Is but one sure policy for the spot ' . ; holders to pursue in the present fight tbey : are in, and that is to bold their ootton firmly * " in their own possession until the people wbo l need and must bave it oome into the market and offer satisfactory prices. We know now that the crop is short, and that the balance S Of the unsold portion of this crop must bring , .. higher prices to offset the depressed markets , we baa to suffer in September and Ooiober. _ My Advice is not to listen at any proposals for . . partial trades or propositions to borrow. "Stand pat and demand the full price. We ! \ are sure to win if we firmly bold the small , . balanoe of the nnsold crop for 15 cents." . t r a * t Officers and Salaries of Cotton ' ? t * AOBWiailVU. g New Orleans, Jan. 15.?The execu- d "* tive board of the Southern Cotton asso- a ciaion held its annnual business meet- 1 lug today with almost a full board ? . sitting.
