Our Candidates.
| From the Bee.l

We Learn, with deep regret, that while Gen.
Decl0uet was canvassing the Lafourche district,
he received a letter from home, conveying the
melancholy intelligence OF the death Of a ia
vori1e child. This distressing information COM
PEELED him Immediately to retrace his steps to-
wards the parish of st. Martins, where, it is
not improbablv he may remain some time. We
sympajhise deeply with General Declouet, and
trust his friends in those portions of the State
which he may be precluded from visiting, by
this unexpected calamity, will exert themselves
to secure him that energetic and enthusiastic
support which his presence and address to the
people would have infallibiy obtained.
In the interim, Gen. Declouet's associates
on the ticket, Kenner and Bordelon, are indetatl-
gably engaged in a thorough canvass of the state.
The former, after re-visiting his old stamping
ground in Latourche and the adjacent parishes,
has proceeded to the piney woods of the Flo
rida district, and will visit Livingston, st: He
lena, Washington, st. Tammany. From thence
he will repair to Ouachita, and will show the
gallant Wings of that section what manner Of
man he is. Louis Bordelon has been so journing
some time among the sugar planters along the
coast, but is now on his way to the Fourth Con-
gressional District, and will shortly be among
his staunch friends, of st. Landry and Avoy-
elles. His name on the ticket is q tower of
strength; he will not only beat his competitor
out Of sight, but will materially promote the
triumph Of all our candidates. Mr.. Bordelon's
popularity is universal and well merited.
From every part Of the state our advices are
cheering. One may see in the subdued tone
and gloomy looks of Locofocoism, the f~aintness
Gifts hopes. The idea that Gen. Walker was
going to walk over the course has long since
been abandoned, He has an opponent who,
though young, has proved himself of superior
mettle. Let our friends of the country hold
fast unto their integrity and all will be WE'LL
We will not boast Of whar the city will do; but
this much the Wings of Orleans can promise
an ardent, jealous and united support of the
whole ticket. The Wings are rapidly organi-
zing; the Fillmore Rangers-that invincible
host, the Macedonian phalanx Of Whiggery-
are in the field; the Kenner Rangers; the Declou-
ct Guards and other spirited and gallant ~assecia-
tons are marshalled for the contest. Every
honorable effort will be made to exceed the
brilliant majority of November, and at all events
the Crescent City will send Declouet, kenner,
and Bordelon into the interior with a vote that
will carry joy and exultation to the hearts of
their friends, and fill with Consideration the bo-
SONS of their enemies. Let the Wings through
out the state initiate our example, and the knell
of Locofocoism in Louisiana will be rung.

THRIFT OF THE YANKEE. The Tuscaloosa
Monitor gives the following good humored, pun
gent and lnimtabe sketch:
A mountain of granite appears rather toug&
subject to zeal with, yet Yankee will burrow
iuto its bowels and lol the granite becomes gold
in the vault of the Commonwealth Bank in Bos-
ton pond OF ice presents a cherries and
chllly prospect to the eye, but the Yankee, moth
ing daunted, will heave up its crystal masses,
and straightway the ice glitters in diamonds upon
the bosom OF his rosy. checked spouse. Wher-
ever the Yankee layeth down his band, gold
sPrlngeth. Into what soil soever he thrusleth
MS spade, gold spouteth thereiorm. In the dim
twlhght by his chimney corner, he sltteth medi-
tating, and thoughts chase one another through
MS brain, which thoughts are gold. Various
they are, it may be in form and seeming. One
IS Dut gTidron, another baby jumper, and a
thlrd steam engine, but he writeth them all
down In the patent office at Washington, and
men Putteth them in his pocket in good golden
eagles from the mint at Philadelphia.
But your genuine Yankee coneth not merely
MS own sagacous conceits the foles, the fears
ana the errors OF others moreover all gold TO
MN. lie iabricateth mermaids and sea serpents
and Iocketh up in his iron chest heaps OF golden
cFedulty. tie manutactureth pill OF chalk ana
wheaton bread, which he warranteth to cure
asthma, hydrocephalus, epilepsy and yellow ie-
Yer'and presently buildeth him great house on
the banks of the Hudson, When sudden delr-
lum seizing all the world, prompting them to en-
igrate in floods no where, he quietly mustereth
his fleets OF transport for that destination, or
buildeth railroad in that direction, re gardess
oil what is at the other end, and putteth the pas.
sage money in his pocket. He erecteth to him.
sell no castles in the air, but he diligently aid
eth his neighbor to do the same, and out Of the
proceeds grow up to him presently castles upon
the earth. Such is the modern Midas-the Mi
das without the long ears-the cool, acute, sa-
gscious, calculating Yankee.
