A STRONG SToRY.-A wild friend of ours, Selma
Tom,) told us the other day the following tough
story,
Tom says he got acquainted with a very COM
panionable fellow from one Of the mountain coun-
ties, who happened to be in Selma on business.
This was in August last. Mountain Sprout was a
member of the church, but being long way from
home, and having never experienced iced cock
tail before, he took on as much as he could wag
with Tom aiding and abettng. In due time,
Sprout went home, but runors Of his rotations
followed him and the church brought him " to taw,
for drunkenness. Sprout, on trial, admitted that
he had, while in Selma, got little "foxy." but
then he told his brethren, the "big Jumps Of ice
they had at the BAR were SO very iIavitltsy, he
couldn't help drinking" >.
Thereupon an old brother got up and Errd That
for his part, if the young brother had only got
drunk under the circumstances of being away from
home, and falling into bad company, he should
have been in favor of forgiving him. on his making
proper Acknowledgements. "But brethren" he
wound up, this matter is worse than drinking.
It's downright lying! Did YOU hear what brother
Sprout said about ice, and 1t august! I'm for
jerking him out for lying!" And out he went.
Tom told us another story good deal worse
than that so much worse, that we won't publish

BALANCING THE AcoouNrs-THE KILLED AND
WouNDED.-The final combined assault, says an
exchange cost the French army no less than 1851
men, killed, wounded and missing; the British
loss on the same day was 2457, so that the total
loss of the allied armies amounts to not less than
10000 men on this dreadful occasion. But if
to this number of victims be added the large
losses sustained by both armies at Balaklava, at
lnkermann at the attack of the 18th of June,
and at the battle of the Tchernaya, besides the
constant drain of men by sorties and in the
trenches which exceed latterly 100 men day,
we conceive that the losses sustained by the be-
seiged forces under fire cannot be less than 80,
900 men, and probably surpass that number; to
these must be added the still more unhappy VIC
Tins of disease and privations, who were at one
time, swept away more rapidly than by the sword
of the enemy. We are, probably far below the
truth in estimating these losses at 20,00Ofor the
allies, which would raise their total loss to So
600, and only assuming the Russians not to have
lost more than the allies have, though it is likely
that they have lost two men for every one of the
allies, it may be said that no less than 100, 900
beings have been slain, struck down by disease,
or wounded in the attack and defense of Sebas-
topol

TO THE POLLS! TO THE POLISH!

This is the last issue of the Minerva, prior to the
election! Voters of Lafourche, we expect you to do
your duty! We are conscious that we have done
ours! Nothing has ever been spared as far as
our humble talents would permit to put the issue
of Monday before you in its true light: AMERI-
CANS ALONE TO RULE AMERICA. Thisis the
only true principle involved in the contest. Our
opponents the Antics, have appealed to your
religious prejudices in order to have you vote
against us.
Naturalized citizens, you should bear in mind
that Messrs E. G. Robiehaux, L. s. Allan, J. A.
Robichaux, v D. Terrebonne, and c. 0. Dantin,
belonged to the American Party, and we have the
right to believe, abandoned it from motives OF in
terest. May we not justly infer that they have
stopped to gain your support. Their religious
scruples pretext is too himsy and absurd to merit
our serious notice. The members of the American
Party are unwavering, and as true in the advocacy
of their principles, is the needle to the pole.
They display no false colors and say to you: here
you may enjoy peaceful homes, raise families, edu-
cate your children, and participate in all the bless
ings of our free Institutions except that OF the fra
ming of our laws which we contend of right de-
wolves solely on those who are natives of the SOIL
Who are most entitled to your confidence; those
who boldly avow their principles, Or those who es
say to keep them in the dark? The names of our
candidates, and the principles which they advocate
appear in our first column. They are all high-mnd
ed, honorable, true, and noble AMERICANS, who
would scorn to sacrifice principles for the sake Of
Office; the last to abandon the CONSTITUTION
and the UNION!

Mr. A. BEATTY AND THE "VACHERY LANDs"-
We have authority to say that NJ ssrs. Ledet,
SEWN, and the Forets deny in toto the assertions
made in the card Of Mr.. Beatty-whch appeared
in our last issue-to-wt that they were offered
the lands at the cost price paid by Messrs Beatty,
Bush and others; but, that Mr. Bush offered them
their lands back at $3.50 per acre. Now Mr..
Beatty says he does not believe the settlers on the
Florain claim have C. the color of title" unless
they bring to. their aid some subsequent act of
Congress. This being the case, we may with pro-
priety ask, why are all those engaged in the spec
ulation exerting themselves so increasingly to
secure Mr.. Beatty's election? Do they not expect
to obtain some "aid and comfort" from him in
the Senate?
