Mr.. Sentinel: AS the plan which you suggested
to raise funds for the Washington Monument, has
proved SO successful wherever practised, | would
be pleased to see it again adopted at the polls in
this State, particularly as it is a Gubernatorial
election. A renewed impulse might thus be gi-
ven to the patriotism of the other States of the
Union, and induce them likewise to place boxes
at the polls for this noble object, when each of
their executive officers is to be elected. Were
no doubt whatever that the Monument Associa-
ton, at an early day, would be enabled to notify
the public that sufficient funds had been received
TO complete the noble work for which they were
A VOTER.

A Noble Eramp7e.-The other day, having
need of help from a drayman, we called an
Irishman to our assistance. He performed his
duty with great promptness, and his language
and demeanor generally were such as to COM
mand our admiration. Having paid him for his
trouble, the following conversation ensued:-
How long have you been in this cityf' we in
quired. "Twelve months Tomorrow, sir" he
politely replied. ''Pray, what was your occu-
patton in the old country?" For moment the
man colored and dropped his head, but in an
instant after, raising himself with the dignity of
a man, he boldly replied: q was a physician in
Dublin" Somewhat surprised, we asked how
it was that he was now driving a dray. His re-
ply in substance was that he brought his family
direct from Dublin to Chicago; that when he
arrived here his funds were so much exhausted
that he was unable to maintain the appearance
of his profession; besides, he found the city full
of young physicians waiting till the city grew.
Having no mechanical trade, he purchased a
horse and dray, and at once began to earn a
livelihood for himself and family. We cal this
a noble specimen of a man. How much more
independent and happy that man had spentthe
year than if he had been idle and complaining
of fortune all that time.-C Chicago Tribue.

The Canvass.

In our peculiar sphere we labored so inces-
sanity previous to the late Presidential election,
with apparently to So little purpose, that we
are but little inclined to renew similar exer-
tons during the short space of time to elapse
before the State election comes off. We might
say considerable, and with justice, in favor of
the claims pf BoRDELoN for Governor, and a
great deal which would be construed as unjust
against those of HEBERT for the same office,
were we to follow the example of some of our
contemporaries. But we are of opinion that
such labor would not aid our cause the least
particle, while it would be occupying space
which we could appropriate to a more useful
purpose. 1t is expected everywhere, that the
latter of these gentlemen will have an over
whelming majority in his own parish. He
may and he may not. 1t is a question yet to be
decided, whether he will run here as well for
Governor as he did for a seat in the Conyen-
ton. We, however, anticipate for him a hand
some majority as the Democratic nominee for
the Executive Office, we would be most agree
ably disappointed were it otherwise. BoRDE-
LON is personally known and highly appreciated
in this parish, and he has polled a fine vote on
previous occasions. Is it necessary that we
should remind his old friends of his faithful
services, and plead to them not to forsake him
now?
OurLegislative ticket is composed of gen.
tlemen of ability, who are zealously canvassing
the district and parish; they are. however, only
beginners in the science of politics and cleo
ti~oneering-and casting aside the vancouver
ings Of experienced politicians, even were they
capable of practising them, they can only offer
to the people their past career in life, as q qua.
rantee that they will faithfully perform their
duties if elected.
The Democrats, we understand, claim one
hundred and fifty ma jority in the parish-c!aim-
ed by men who appear to have made it their
study to ascertain the fact. 1t is true they have
recorded large majorities of late, but we have
reason to believe that this strength will be
greatly weakened in the approaching contest.
But whatever superiority of force the Demo
Gratis may claim, the Wings of lberyille (f we
have an idea of their spirit) admit no minority
except when proved after the polls are closed
and the votes counted, What animates us
is the fact that there appears to be unusual ac-
tivity and good feeling among the Wings, and
that our nominees are most assiduous and I'M
in visiting the people and explaining the
policy by which they will be guided, if elected.
We ask of the independent voters of the
and district, a calm and dispassionate
of the candidates before them. We
have placed before them names which fear no
nor comparison.

CompZimentary-As editors are a species o.
public property, which is often dealt with ina
rough and reckless manner, but which they
must expect, no matter how pure and perfect
are their actions and exertions, (and we have
had our share,) it is really pleasant occasionally
to experience a change of scene, by reading
kindly eulogistic words Of us, whether they
are deserving or not. We shroud what mo-
desty an editor is presumed to possess, while
we give to our patrons the following, respect
ing our suggestion of the "Dime Contribution
which we take fiom the Southron, a handsome
Democratic journal, published at Holmesyille
Miss,
"iEonor to ,chom Honor is due."-Some of
our exchanges have been specializing, since the
election, in reference to the orig in of the bril-
liant idea of placing extra boxes OF The election
polls, with the inscription, "One Dime to the
Memory of Washington," and by which means
large amounts have been collected towards the
erection of the Monument to the Father of his
Country. The New Orleans "Crescent' says
it is at last discovered to be Mr.. w. P. Brad
burn, the modest and unassuming, but no less
vigorous and talented, editor Of the Plaquemine
(La.) Sentinel. He it is who is entitledt to the ho-
nor of having first suggested this happy mode of
raising funds from every voter as a contribution
towards the Washington National Monument.
Friend "Brad." allow US to say in our usual sin
cerity with you in days gone by, that you have
thus originated and simpliied an idea beyond
the Hottest conception of our "wise Legisla-
tors" who would now be proud to wear the
horors that are yours by this one act, but of
which you seem so careless.
We bow to the Partially which influenced the
feelings of our friend Of other days, long past.
For ourself personally we care but little for
the suggestion which we were happy enough to
make, SO that it is successfully carried out, and
that glorious structure, which should be the
pride of every American bosom, be immediate
ly completed we have only the ambition which
seeks peace and contentment, and wish no ephe-
neral honors but, for the reputation of our
town and parish-forsth the honor of those here
who first started, and on three successive occa-
sions successfully tested the practicability of
our plan, which has given such positive evil
dence of leading to great results-we have
cause to be anxious thathistory should be right.
and that Iberviile--Louisiana-should have TIE
distinguished honor of placing the cap-stone
upon the noblest monument in the World!!

Hon Is live know of MANY honest

Hon. Is live know of many honest
wings who are opposed to the 'negro basis
We know Of some leading wings in taror Of it.
The leading whig journals are silent as the grare
on this point. Now, the new Constitution is a
whig Constitution, and it is not fair to infer that
the Wings as a party are decidedly IN taucr of
the negro basis! Ifthey are opposed TO it why,
in the name of all that ishonest do they not say
so?1 Let the people beware. Be not deceived.
we beseech you. The democrats have said en-
phatically that they are o2posedto the negro ba-
SIS, and are pledged to do all in their power to
have it erpuaged. On the other hand, the posi-
ton of the wings as q party, on this point, is,
to say the least, doubtful. To the people-to
the honest men of both parties, we appeal and
ask them for the sake of the presentand future
welfare of the State not to 60 it blind, when
the beacon light of principle, iIlumes the path.
.-Baton Rouge Adrocate.
We are very happy that the Advocate has
given us an occasion to speak upon this sub
ject. The Wings of this Parish are not only
opposed TO the "negro basis" but they are also
opposed TO the election of Judges for ten years;
and further, they are opposed to Mr.. TALBOT,
the Democratic nominee for this Senatorial
District, aeho voted for this rery negro basis!-
for which the Democrats seem to have such a
holy horror-and he will not return to the Ca
pitol if the Wings can prevent it. .

The 81. Charles Hotel.-This magnificent
building is rapidly reaching its completion. Yes
terday the satisfied "engineer laid the last stone,"
and he looked upon his work with pride. Since
our walk over the hotel, to-day, however, we
perceive that a portion of the brick work on the
south corner of the portico has had to be re.
moved. in consequence Of the frailty of the
stone flags, which supported the projecting ma
son work, having given way, or showed signs
of giving way, but which we are not Informed.
Despite tho difficulties and embarrasments
which seem to nave beset the architect and
builder, in the progress of the work, the st.
Charles now stands a stately monument of taste
and skill.
The apartments, in. the upper stories, have
been entirely furnished and carpeted, so that
they might be safely and conveniently occupied;
and in a few weeks we may expect to see the
hotel opened to visitors and occupants.
When completed, the new St. Charles will
present all the poetry and romance of the old
st. Charles, in its outward appearance,-whilst
its interior arrangements for com fort and pleas.
ure are far superior.
The ~lessees, Messrs. Hall & Hildreth, are
gentlemen experienced in hotel keeping, and
in no hands could such a hotel be placed with
greater reliance. They have already showed
much OF their taste, in the selection Of the fur
nlture and appointments. We anticipate that
under their management, the St. Charles will
be superior to any other hotel in the United
States.--Deh0. 4
