The "Spoils Of 06ice."--It is presumed that
this journal has handled considerable Of the
"spoils" coming from a wing Sheriff, but if our
columns are examined at present, and for more
than a year past, it will be found that our sup
portcomes from some other source than judi.
eial advertisements. The truth is, all the pa
t~ronage-the entire patronage-whieh the She
riff of this Parish can control, is Jailor's adver-
tisements, averaging not one hundred dollars a
year, as our books will show, and the printing
annually ofl2oo blanks, worth eight Or ten dol
lars. He did control a little more than this
but the Police Jury in its wisdom took it from
him. So much for the spells of office" 1t
must be q God send to him who enjoys them
We say this much for the information of the
public.

We wish him and his partners every success

Louisiana Democracy.-The Democracy, says
the Bulletin, of this State appearto be in a bad
way. They certainly are, if we take for grant
ed what they say of each other. They are not
only quarrelling, but some of them positively
and unequiyocally charge the rankest and vii
est corruption upon their fellows WINCH, if facts,
ought to forever disgrace the individuals so
charged, and lead to an absolute withdrawal of
the confidence ofthe people.
In an article highly eulogistic of Col. T. C.
Porter, the Clinton State Paper, of the Dist
one of the ablest and strong est of the Demo
cratic journals Of Louisiana--says:
"Amid the desolating simeon ofpolitical cor
ruption which has recently swept over the De-
mocracy in this State, in the way of local fed
eral appointments, and the fitting sequel of the
late senatorial fraud, which has chilled the
heart, sickened and paralyzed the energies, and
debased the character of the Democratic party
of Louisiana, there is one green spot which has
escaped the poisonous and destroying blast;
one honored name that stands out prominently
and cheeringly, affording some relief to the dark
and dismal back ground of the political picture
which has been presented, during the last six
weeks, before the astonished gaze of the Be-
mocracy of Louisiana"

The Gardner Eial-This important trial
is near its end. The prisoner, DR.. Gardiner,
stands accused of making a false oath by which
he obtained a large claim of money from Gov
eminent for mines which he said he possessed
in Mexico, and Of which he was deprived by
that Government. The prosecuting Attorney
had not yet concluded his argument by any in.
formation received at the time of our writing,
What has been published is overwhelming
against the prisoner. The trial is creating con-
adorable excitement. -,

A Few Facts for Mrs. Stowe.-Among the ne
gros who sailed from Norfolk a few days since,
for Liberia, were 10 belonging to the estate of
the late DR.. VIM. s. Andres, a very estima-
bic and intelligent gentleman of Bladen coun-
ty, who died some four or five years ago.
There are some facts connected with this
circums stance as honorable to human nature as
they are Inconsistent with the inventions of
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, in her noueL We
learned them from one in nc way connected
with the parties, and take a liberty which they
may not approve of, in mentioning them here.
Dir. Andres by his will left his 81 slaves free
TO 90 to Liberia, if they should decide to do so
within one year after his death. They did not
so decide, and therefore became the joint prop
erty of a sister of the deceased and of Robert
E. Troy, Esq, a brother-in-law. During the
year, every facility was afforded to the negros
to obtain information on which to base their
decision. But these facilities were not confn-
ed to the year limited by the will. They were
continued mp to the present year. A few
months ago, Mr.. Troy invited March Hooper,
an intelligent negro formerly Of this place, (who
had been to Liberia and came back an enthus-
iastic advocate for the emigration of his friends)
to visit his plantation and tell these people all
he knew of the Colony. The result was that
10 out of the 81 finally resolved to go: and &C.
cordingly Mr.. Toy took them to Norfolk, not
only giving them their freedom, but giving them
also the amount Of their earnings since the
death OF DR.. Andres. Two refused to emigrate
prefcrring to remain slaves here, to being free
elsewhere. Who shall say that they have not
decided wisely.-FaycNeriNe Cbserrer.

Immigration from Ireland.-The Galway pa
pers, one and all, continue to report the increas.
d"fight of the population" Batches of en-
%igrants, often amounting TO over 100, leave
daily by railway for the seaports. Labor is
rapidly becoming scarce, and the paucity of the
people is strikingly~ exemplifed in the deminish-
ed numbers who attend the Saturdays markets.
Letters, enclosing remittance from America, are
pouring into the country, so that it would be
idle to expect any check to the great clearance
system now in progress, and which seems like
ly to last until tbs Celtic race..shall have wholly
passed away from the mother country. Vast
numbers, too, are going to England, where, it
is supposed, in consequence of the immigration
to Australia, they will readily obtain employ
ment as laborers and servants. Private &C
counts from Westmeath and the Kings county
are of a precisely similar tendency. In the last
especially the effects of the exodus are severely
felt in the scarcity of hands to complete the
spring work, and the high rate of wages which
the small farmers are compelled to give in or
der to induce the laborers to forego for a seas
son at least, their intention of following their
friends and relatives to their adopted homes in
the new world. In some districts villages have
boen wholly abandoned by the peasantry, and
ever in the neighborhood of large towns the
traces Of a diminished population are clearly
visible to the most casual observer. On each
Sunday evening when heretofore the lanes and
roads were alive with people amusing them
selves according to the customs OF the country,
including the "dance at the crossroads" stran-
ger might now, but for the occasional meeting
with an odd straggler or 1.-TWO, pursue his jour-
ney in perfect solitude. In the week just clos
ed, ll4S emigrants took shipping at the ports
respectively of New Coss and Waterford, and a
letter from Cahireiveen, in the county o fKerry,
dated Wednesday evening, says that the town
on that day resembled ga second fair, so far as
crowds of human beings" consisting of the IA
theirs, mothers, sisters, and other relatives of
over 100 young men and women, from l6 to
Is years of age starting for America.

The Nems From Merico.-Quite exciting
intelligence from Vera Cruz will be found in
another place. 1t appears that an order from
the supreme Government of Mexico had been
received, Incorporating the National Guard of
the city with the regular line soldiers. This in
censed the redoutable Nationals hugely. They
forthwith got up a pronunciamento, so fashion,
able in Mexico, and generally very harmless,
and, on the 18th, commenced operations in good
earnest. The fight continued three full days,
and vacant streets were cannopaded valiantly,
much to the fright of the innocent citizens in
cellars. Fierce bayonet charges were made at
safe distances (from the ports to the streets,
we presume, was the intervalO and glittering
sabres flashed f~uriously in the sunlight, half a
mile or so distant from each other! Strange
to say, some forty or fifty were actually killed
"a thing almost unheard of in Mexican revo.
lutions-when the Nationals caved in, peace
smiled upon the city, and business once more
resumed its accustomed sway. We trust we
shall not hear of another pronuncian1ento for 4
month, at least. The Mexicans have nc
right to alarm ali mankind, and the rest o fcrea.
ton, simply for their own amusement. 1t is
true that the Mississippi river yet runs down
stream, but there's no telling the effect of
another revolution! A revulsion of its flow
would be productive of the most disastrous
consequences.-BuUctin.

Parish Improvements.

No good citizen can be otherwise than pleas
ed to witness the spirit of enterprise which is
animatng the breasts of our population. This
fact is evidenced by the elacrity and enthusiasm
which have characterized the feelings of all in
reference to the proposed Leree Road to con-
meet with orr town the rich and prospecting sec
ton of the parish which lies between Plaque
mine and the Point Coupee line. Indeed, a
person living in town, and who seldom leaves
it for recreation can have no idea of the enjoy
ment which the country affords. 1t is there that
the mind feels relieved and its energies expan-
ded. The hospitality and cordially which are
every where offered, amidst the green fields and
waving forests, excites a description of stimu-
lus no where else to be obtained, and we defy
a person to visit a section where these feelings
will be more enhanced than the delightful re,
gion Of Crosse Tete and the Marangouin. Had
we the power to select a home where we could
be situated to enjoy life in its peace and beau
ty, that home would be in the above section.-
And we cannot see how any one, who has a
knowledge Of this district of country, could be
opposed to a sufficient appropriation by the
Parish-rich and out of debt as ours is-to
make q suitable road, that travel might be un-
interrupted the year round between Plaquemine
and this beautiful region.
But we feel assured that the time has arrived
when all penufious and short sighted objections
have passed, and that public improvements in
the Parish will have commenced in noble and
liberal spirit, by the parochial authorities dona.
ting the proper amount to commence and finish
forthwith the Levee Road. We have convers-
ed with a score Of tax payers upon the subject,
and we find them all, without an exception, en-
Enthusiastically in favor of the road being finish
ed Immediately and by the Parish.
The Police Jury meets next Monday, and it
is expected that the committee appointed at the
Public Meeting upon this subject, will be pres
ent and afford every information to the mem
bers upon this important work. If the Police
Jury but look to the existing and increasing
between Plsquemine and Crosse
Tete, to the pecuniary advantages which the
road itself will give to the Treasury, and to the
deep and self-preserving interests which it will
be to the parish, no hesitation can exist among
the members relative to giving at once the ne
cessary appropriation.

Leree Road and 4h Of July Celebration and
Fish Frv at the Portage on Crosse Tste.-We
understand, and we are pleased to hear it, that
IL is proposed by our citizens to join with the
citizens of Crosse Tete, and have a grand" lie.
wee Road and 4th of July Celebration and Fish
Fry" Nothing could more induce to the har-
mony and good feeling between the citizens
of Plaquemine and those of that rich and flour
ishing section of our parish, than a union of this
description, when mutual interests could be
discussed, in conjunction with paying a proper
respect to this glorious Anniversary, Original
ting on 4th of July '76, and spreading its hal
lowed associations into the breasts of those
who live in far distant regions.
The Portage is a beautiful spot for such ce~
LIBERATION, and the streams in the vicinity
abound in delightful fish, which can be caught
in abundance. On a late visit to Grosse Tete
a 4th of July banquet was warmly urged by
several prominent gentlemen in that patriotic
neighborhood, one of whom said he had a fine
pig fattening in contemplation Of said event,
and we take the liberty of saying on the part
ofthe citizens there, that they will join in hand
and soul with this movement. A boat would be
in readiness to convey the citizens of Plaque
mine to the Portage, and return in the after
moor, as we understand.

A Wonderful Character.-It is reported that
there new lives an old man down in the swamp
of little Pee Dee, who never owned but one
pair of shoes in his life, and he says they were
so id hot he never were them but once
He never cultivated the soil; nevertheless he
has accumulated a considerable sum O fmoney,
which be deposits in hollow trees in the most
unfrequented swamps. He affects extreme pow
erty, and when applied to for the loan of money,
declares he has none; but if the security and
premium offered pleases him, and promises to
repay in specie, he will appoint a day when he
will try to get a little, which ne ~neyer fails to
do. He has made his fortune by the sale of
fish, the finest of which he knows exactly where
to fish for, and honey which he raises in large
quantities, having his bees hived in swafnps
for miles around. No music is so charming to
his ears as the booing of the bullfrogs, and the
believing of the alligators; for these sang his
lullaby when in his cradle, and have been har-
bingers of his bravest days, from his boyhood
to the present day. He never uses any other
weapon to kill snakes with, than his heels, and
there never was but one known to attempt to
bite him, and that one broke off his teeth with.
out penetrating the skin of the heel. He has
never taken any doctors stuff, nor let them
come near enough to feelhis pulse or to look
at his tongue; and he is now seventy years Of
age. Strange as it may seem that such a char.
acter should find a mate of similar tastes and
%fancies, yet such is the case, only that she is a
little more like him than he is like himself
Has any Of our contemporaries as singular a
character in the neighborhood If so, let's
hear about Eim.-Cher0w Gazette.
