The question involves the agricultural

can say, gentlemen you are new com
ers to Baton Rouge, you have no right
to be classed with the ''ancient inhabi-

within the last quarter century. when

there are as many boats, but they do

But then, tell Us, why It is, the man

WHAT BECOMES or MULES =
There is ,exed question in reference
to vessels. that seems to have puzzled
all the newspaper editors and az 1t
has become last, in "the press of other
matters, We propose another. The
question has been ',vhnt becomes Of
all the vessels The question rs,
"What becomes Of all the mules 2"
Mules form the staple product, of
Kentucky and Tennessee, and there
is not season that does not bring
down droves. Now, what becomes of
them ! Do they actually wear out !
DO they become weak and decrepid
with old age, and lay down and die !
IF so. what becomes of the hide and
tallow ? Come, philosophers and polit-
ical economists, take up the question
and let us know what becomes Of
mules.
