says, speaking of letter to the New

says that "old maids are scarcely

says The presumes not, nor young

IHE COAST JOURNAL.--IhiS Is thu
name Of . new weekly paper JUS
issued at Donaldson. It is published
in French and English. We notice
that its advent was celebrated, al
Princes Hotel. This is proper. The
appearance Of a new paper is an ad.
vent, and should be heralded as such
The Coast Journal credits US with the
following:
''Nous lisons dams lie Comet de
Baton Rouge, que Mr.. Mitchell de
Natchez vendu d la Nlle-Orleans
plusieurs bales de sa recolte de cotton
au prix enorme de II cents la liyre
De devait-etre du cotton sans pareil. "
Now we never said anything of the
sort. 1t is a common practice for our
charitable brethren Of the press, to
shove offupon us every doubtful fish
story that it invented. We have sins
enough Of our own to account for, and
do not desire credit for anybody elscs.
It is for this reason that we can never
collect our thoughts to write heavy
leader upon any heavy subject. Our
naturally even equanimity Of temper
is rufled every morning by looking
into exchanges to find ourselves abused
for thugs we never said, and for do
ing things we never did, and of which
we are as innocent as the unborn
lamb"
The Coast Journal is neat paper
and will do well, if it will do better.

SEn,oUs AFFAIR.-On Sunday
evening, party was assembled at the
house Of Mr.. Louis Wolff in Spanish
Town, where they were drinking and
making merry, quarreling and fight
ing by turns. In one Of the ARRAYS a
man by the name Of Fink, drew small
pocfet knife and stabbed at man by
the name Of Mulick from the Ordin-
ance Department. Mulick was seri-
1.sIy if not dangerously wounded and
was taken to the Hospital, and Fink
C. nmtted to await the result Of the
Wounds inflicted by him. This is al
most invariably the result, when par
ties mix together Unfortunately,
from sociability in the first instance,
and then from drinking, loosecont roll
Of themselves.
The man from the ordinance is we
learn, a quiet, inofensive fellow, and
we do not think it was the intention
Of Fink to injure him seriously. The
enlisted men in that Department do
not often get into difficulty, as they
are generally quiet and peaceable-
having little to do with broils and
ARRAYS Of this character.
THE LATE JOHN GEDeE.-It is
with feelings ofdeep regret, we notice
the death Of this amiable gentleman,
in the Bulletin Of the 14th inst. He
died in New Orleans on Thursday
evening last. Mr. GEDeE was Past
Grand Master Of the NJ. W. Grand
(Masonic) Lodge Of Louisiana, over
which be presided with justice and
moQeratlOn.
The bretberen throughout the State
will be panied to learn the intelligence
Of the death of their M. w. Past
Grand Master; cut down as he has !
