The Registry Law.

The following acquires additional force from
the fact that it is copied from the Coast Journal,
an influential democratic paper, published at
Donaldsonville, parish of Ascension. 1t is so
very seldom that the democratic press is willing
to censure the wonton violations of its party to
constitutional law and order, that we cannot re-
frain, on this occasion, from making a note ont.
The editors of the Coast Journal most certainly
deserve great credit for the frankness and NOR
al courage they have displayed in pening their
remarks. But listen:
Honesty is the best policy. When will the
INSCRIPTIONS be taught to believe it? The re-
gistry law was rendered obligatory by the Con-
had not previously made it ga law to them
selves" Roberts and politicians of that ilk
tried to make the registry law of no avail, by
emasculating it and taking from it its most i'm
portant feature. 1t it surprising that honest
men of all parties should become disguised at
such barefaced evasons, and this attempt to
sanction fraudulent and illegal voting? We
acknowledge that democratic politicians have
much to do with the present excited state Of
feeling in this country. When will they learn
that honesty is ARRAYS the best policy? The
people are sovereign and bound in their capacity
as soverigns, to see that their agents maintain
the majesty of the law. The humblest democrat
is superior to his representative and must punish
him by dismissal from office, should he violate
decency propriety. BY what right then did
some democrats violate hoh by their votes re-
tanning men in the legislature when they had
places in the custom house at the time they
were elected. Was not the Constitution opposed
to their retaining their seats and did not De-
mocratic representatives God save the mark !.
by their votes violate the constitution that they
had taken an oath to maintain. Give us the
registry law say we, and let the Democratic SOW
ereigns elect representatives true to the Con-
stltution.-Coast Journal.

CooL-A fellow named VIM. Willow.
whose reputation is no better than it should
be, constituted himself special guardian Of
the peace and safety of the city of New Or
leans on Tuesday night last, and performed
his part with great faithfulness, thus showing
that some things can be done as we'll as
others. The Evening Delta thus notices his
exploits:
A VIGOROUSLY dangerous and suspicious
character, whose arrest we have had to
record more than once, was seen last hight
by.offcer Dick Howard travelling around on
Philippa street with yellow ribbon tied in
the botton-hole of his coat-the badge of the
Special Police. The officer thought he
would keep an eye on the movements ofthis
fellow, and accordingly followed him up
pretty closely. He performed the part of a
special officer exceedingly well, ordered all
the coffee houses to close up and actually
closed some of them; would give orders to
the regular Waterman, and was particularly
busy in stopping peaceable citizens and
examining them for concealed weapons.
Dick watched him for some time. and when
he though he had gone far enough shut down
upon the lark, took him prisoner, and lodged
him in the watch house. Recorder Sum-
mers yesterday sent him to the Workhouse
for sixty days. A gentleman from BouHgny
has made an affidavit against him for horse
stealing.

BLooDHouNDs IN ENGLAND.-Bloodhou
have been used in England several times
lately to aid in capture of sheep stealers,
under the direction of the police. This
seems dangerous and inhuman course, for
which the crime committed affords but an
inadequate justification. The manner in
which the hounds are used may be gathered
from the following remarks of the Sussex
EnglanD Express in noticing recent cap
ture of sheep stealears by bolice superinten-
dent Altar:
"This is the second capture this active
months. A few weeks ago the same par
ties stole a sheep from Mr. Bettsworth of the
same parish, and Mr. Smith and his blood
hounds were sent for. The latter ran from
the spot where the sheep was killed,
through the most remote valley in the
neighborhood, distance of three miles, eau.
sing great sensation to the guilty gang.
They ultimately arrived at a cottage occu-
pied by a shoemaker, when the gallant
huntsman was accosted by the parayzed in-
mate as to what his business was there. He
was informed of the nature of his visit. The
bloodhounds tried to make entrance to their
prey through the thatch on the roof of the
cottage The door however was opened and
search was made, and part of the sheep
found in the house. The prisoners were
subsequently apprehended and committed
for trial"

RUFUS CHoATE.-We don't know who wrote
something done for him.
Rufus Choate is a picture to look at, and a
croWder to spout. He is about seven feet six
or six feet seven in his socks; supple as an eel,
and wiry corkscrew. His face is COM
pound of wrinkles, :'yaller janders " and juris-
prudence. He has SMALL keen, piercing black
eyes, and head shaped like mammoth goose
egg, big end up; his hair black and curly, much
resembling a bag of wool in s.admirable dis
order" or brush heap in gale Of wind His
body has no particular shape, and his wit and
legal "dodges" have set many Judge in q
smoker, and so COMPOUNDED jurors as to make it
almost impossible for them to speak plain En-
glish, or tell the truth for the rest of their
natural lives. Rufus is great on twisting him
self up; squirming himself around, and pranc-
ing, jumping and kicking up the dust when
steam's up. His oratory is first rate, and his
arguments ingenious and forcible. lie generally
makes a ''ten strike Judge and jury down at
the end of every sentence. He is great on
fowery expressions and highfalutn ''tibbubs. -
Strangers mostly think he is crazy, and the rest
scarcely understand what he is about. He in
voices his time and elocution four thousand per
cent. over ordinary charges for having ones self
put through a course of law.
Rufus Choate is about fifty years of age, per-
haps over. He is considered the ablest lawyer
in New England, orperhaps in the United States
His handwriting can't be dcciphered without the
aid of a pair of compasses and quadrant. His
autograph somewhat resembles the map of Ohio,
and looks like piece of crayon sketchng done
in the dark with three-pronged fork. He has
been in the Senate, and may be. if he has time
to fish for it, President of the United States

AN EDITOR SODA piece of poetry, pur
porting TO have been written by lady, wa:
published in the ST. Louis Herald few days
since, which proves TO be an acrostic. The
first letters of the lines compose the sen
tence "Some Editors are Asses" 1t seems
that some young gentleman, of poelica
genius, sent a contribution TO the Herald
the receipt of which was acknowledged in a
line or two the editor stating. however, tina,
he was better pleased with first persua
than a second insinuatng that he though,
that the writer was guilty of a plagiarism
In revenge, the same writer wrote the
acrostic, which was published with com.

NEW ORLEANS AND THIBoDAUx.-Thibodau
is now emphatically, to all intents and purposes,
suburb Of New Orleans. On each and every
afternoon, every day in the week, we enjoy the
delectable pleasure Of sitting in our chair Of
state, enjoying the fragrant oders Of delicious
regalia and perusing the columns of the New
Orleans dailies. The railroad has brought US
within four hours Of the, great emporium Of the
South West-the commercial capital Of Louis
lana, and, if the science Of medicine viii permit
che will-be mistress Of the Western World.

AuTuMN-The last golden sands of sum-
mer are sinking in Times glass of the sea-
sons, and Autumn is again at hand. The
spring time of the year seemed to linger but
to light with rosy smiles the face of the re-
joicing earth; and then eer her footprints
of flowers were obliterated, summer with
her gorgeous robes, in fiery splender usurp-
ed her realms. The rivulets and fountains
lost their merry laugh and joyous prattle of
earlier hours, and like the currents of our life,
coursed their channels with less gladness.
The heat and burden Of the year has passed,
and in the calm satisfaction and quiet of adj
vanced age the year is looking complacent-
ly upon the treasures which its husbandmen
have poured out at his feet. The glory of
his life having passde away with youth, we
may look soon for the snowy wreath Of the
cotton field to add the GROWING glory to his
venerable brow; and then how soon the
frosts of winter will chill his life blood, and
then the dead year will be gathered to his
fathers.
There is variety in Autumn that re-
lieves the dull monotomy of summer. The
leaves of the book of nature are rustling in
the breeze, whose pinions have long been
folded. The waves are whispering in kim
der accents now to each other as they grow
cool and calm and collected The harvest
is assuming an importance as the domnions
Of the nigh, increae and her reign is spread
ing out in times empire: and through the
soft haze of Autumn look down the stars in
tenderness and love upon the sadder yet
happier world.

yellow FEVER IN New ORLEANs.-The True
Delta of Thursday morning last, says: 1t is
gratifying to observe that in the charity hospital,
that great barometer of the sanitary condition
of our city, marked decline in the number of
yellow fever cases has taken place in the last
few days. We trust, ere long, to announce its
total disappearance from the city.
