wiling to forfeit one hundred dollars,
if the contrary can be proven.
But, we have gone too far with this
article-tarther than We intended, and
must bring it to close. And in doing
so, we think it will be admitted by all
unprejudiced minds, that we have fully
sustained the charge we made against
the ruling majority Of the Police Jury
for the last three years If they gave
their political friend five hundred dollars
to do the printing, under the impression
that we had previously obtained that sum,
it was very generous, but it was inexcu-
sable ignorance. Knowing that the
amount we received for printing, was
before their eyes, if the members of said
majority chose to look at it, we must con
clude that they were aware of the amount
that had been previously paid. In def
ance of this-in defiance of an offer to
do the printing for three hundred dollars,
and in defiance Of the statement of one of
the members Of the Police Jury, who said
he was printer, and that three hundred
dollars would amply pay for the work,
they boldly, in defiance of right, and re
gardess of wrong, gave the printing to
their favorite for the sum of five hundred
dollars! Not word would have been
said if they had voted him three hundred,
instead of FIVE hundred dollars: but the
latter sum was necessary to keep their
organ in tune; and it was Indignantly re.
tusing to act the generous part of dividing
the printing, which was done when we
had it--when we did not receive two
hundred dollars per annum, and when
the Wings (the abused Wings y were 10
power
We are, therefore, fully justified by all
that has been shown above. (and we defy
it to be controverted,) in saying that the
sruling majority of the Police Jury for
the last three years, stand fully committed
before the people and taxpayers of this
parish, upon the charge of 'exorbitant
extravaganza and barefaced favoritism,'
regardless both of their economical ad-
ministration of our parochial affairs, and
of the solemn obligations which they take
as members of the Police Jury and CON
sequently deserve, in the language of the
writer in the Gazette, the 'scorn and
contempt of every man in the commu-
nifty
Here we take leave of the subject, and
respectfully leave it to the serious con
sideration of the people of this parish,
defying the writer in the Gazette, or any
body else, to detect single error or IN
truth in the above statement.

A Strange Visitor.--We find the following
in the Posen Gazette:
A curious adventure has taken place in a
district close at hand. The family of peasant
who inhabits solitary house in the fields were
celebrating the birth of a child. The happy fa-
ther in the excess of his joy, confded to the
midwife the secret of his having saved up the
sum Of eighty dollars for the baptsmal feast :.
A few days before the feast, figure made It's
appearance, wrapped up in a bulls hide with
horns on ifs head, and, announcing itself as tho
devil, demanded of the parents their newborn
child, The father and mother groaned with
distress, upon which the stranger consented to
receive, instead of the child, a sum of eighty
dollars, which were counted out to him. He
then inquired where they kept their provisions:
they referred him TO the loft While he was
unlocking their sausages and pieces Of bacon,
a sportsman Of the neighborhood happened to
look in, when he found the parents kneelinga at
their prayers. The peasant informed him that
terrible parsonage was in the house. The
sportsman instantly mounted the staircase, cry
ing out, "Who goes there p A deep base
voice replied, "The devilr The sportsman
raised his gun to take aim, but at the noise the
stranger called out, "For heavens sake, don't
fire; am N. ~" It was the midwife's husband,
and he Is at this moment in prison.

1t will be seen that, for the last two
years above, ending June l, 1853, there
was an extraordinary amount of printing,
owing to the fact of the change of the
State Constitution, which caused num-
Der of elections to take place, ETC., des-
cription of work which, in all probability,
our neighbor will never have to perform;
and we are willing to wager hundred
dollars that there was a greater amount
of printing done by US, for the parish, in
the two last years, Ito be left to any two
competent printers } than the Gazette has
done for the parish FOR THE LAST THREE
YEARS Will the writer of the aforesaid
article alluded to, take our banter? The
printing of fifty copies of folio post Levee
Laws, leach line numbered similar to the
Legislative style,) and that of two hun
dred pamphlets, in French and English,
is work entirely apart from the usual
parish printing, (Which merely consists
in publishing the Proceedings, the Ordi-
nances, Treasurer's Ferry Advertise
ments, Road and Leyee Inspectors
Notices, Advertisements of Election,
HandbiIls of same, Commissioners
Blanks and oaths,) which the Gazette
in all probability will never have to per-
form; and it will be seen that, including
the price for this first mentioned job,
included in the first year, the sum total
did not then amount to S3O0l
The aggregate of the three years
printing for the parish, as done by us,
and unusually large, for the reason allu-
ded to, amounts to the sum of $ll61 so.
The amount which the Gazette has re-
cei7ed for three years, since June 1, 1858,
is $500, being 1888 so MORE than we
received for the three years previous.
And the work which we did for the parish
the last year being more in all probability
than was done by the Gazette IN THE
WHOLE THREE YEARS. Certainly more
than was done by that Office in the two
succeeding years.
The reader having gone thus far into
the history Of this matter, we trust he will
accompany US little farther and see it
through
We will now show to the public what
we received for the printing, from the
time We commenced publishing a paper
here, in 1848, to June /, 1850.
When we purchased the Iberyillian
from Judge DUTToN, we purchased also
his existing contract with the Police
Jury for 5000, for such description of
printing as mentioned in said contract
We commenced the Sentinel in August
10, 1e4s. The following are the sums
we received from August 10, l848, to
June l. 1850:
