The Opelousas patriot. [volume] (Opelousas, Parish of St. Landry, La.) 1855-1863, 1856-02-02

One likes always to sec a lawyer whose forte
is to banter and bully witnesses, brought up
with o round turn by some victim of his iii
natured bearing. We heard an instance the
other day which is worth relating. A case
was being tried on Long Island, about the
soundness of a horse, in which a Clergyman not
very conyersant in such matters was a witness.
He was q little confused in giving his evidence,
and a clustering fellow of a lawyer, who ex-
amined him, at last exclaimed, Pray, sir, do
you know the difference between q horse and a
cow?" al acknowledge my ignorance" re-
piled the clergyman. 81 hardly know the
difference between a horse and a COW, or a
bully and a bull ; only that a bull has horns.
and a. bully Blowing in mock respect to the
pettifoggcr,) luckily for mel has none!" "You
can retire, sir" said the lawyer, " I've no fur
ther questions to ask you"

A good deal of discussion took place among
the members in regard to the removal Of the
sugar market from the city to Algiers, Jle
planters from Attakapas generally favor0Ag
Algiers, while those,from the Mississippi river
chung to NewOrl s.. Mr.. Cage made a few
remarks, in which be expressed the hope that
every opportunity would be given the mer-
chants and citizens Of NewOrleans to settle
this difficulty, by furnishing the planters with
a good mart for their sugar. He was followed
by Mr.. Allen, who desired to pour oil upon the
may heretofore have existed between the plan
tiers of Attakapas and those Of the Mississippi
river, and hoped that in future they would act
in unison.
Mr.. Minor offered the following resolution,
which was unanimously adopted
Resolved, That the committee be instructed
to examine the various locations on both sides
of the river, and to select the location that, in
their Judgment, may be most suitable for a
sugar mart, and that the Chairman be in
structed to call a meeting Of this convention,
by giving twenty days >ptice, as soon as the
committee is ready to repdt.
NJ lama then offered the following reso-
luton, which was adopted
Resolved, That the committee etruct-
ed-in the event they select some pdNlUfor the
sugar mart other than the city of NewOrlaA
or Algiers-to apply to the State Legislat
for an act of incorporation Of the Association
Of Planters, to provide for the purchase of the
land and the erection Of suitable buildings.
The convention having no further business
before it, on motion, adjourned sine die.
From the proceedings Of this Convention we
are fully convinced that if the City Council
does not make ample provisions at once on the
sugar wharf for our planters, Algiers will take
all the sugar trade from us.

TranscaucasiAs

This is the term applied to a tract Of country
land, lying between the Black and Caspian
Seas, south OF the Caucasus, and north Of the
mountains Of Armenia, which has been acquired
by Russia, partly from Turkey and partly from
Persia, by conquest. Kutals, one of the cities
of this province, is the point upon which the
present movements OF Omar Pacha are directed
The whole region is enc of great historical in.
terest, and is thus described by the Network
Evening Post:
{" Here is the Colchis of the ancient Greeks,
the land visited by Jason and the Argonauts, in
search o fthe Golden Fleece. On the southern
borders of the country, Mount Ararat, the
landing place Of the ark, rises in solitary
grandeur. Here was the cradle of the Persian
monarchy and the centre of the kingdom
of Mithridates. This was the holy land Of the
Magi, and the birth place of Zoroaster. The
town of Baku, on the Caspian Sea, was the
sanctuary Of the fire worship Of the Pe~rsians, to
whom it was a place no less sacred and holy
than Mecca to the M~ohammcdans, or Jerusalem
to the Christians. The country around Baku
abounds in naphtha rrr'r e, Fl sIne
flames rise spor
r ."t9hs
according to tE,
the most wonderful Avs world,
Hence the Persian fire worship. Hither thou
sands of pilgrims resorted annually to perform
their devotions.
Previous to the discovery of the passage
around the Cape of Good Hope, Transcaucasia
was one of the principal thoroughfares of the
commerce between Europe and Asia. Hitler
was transported the precious stones and costly
stnfFs Of the East, to be exchanged for the COM
modities Of the West. Here the Greeks and
the Romans, and afterwards the Genoese and
the Venetians, made the acquaintance of the
Chinese and the Hindoos. Suchum Kale, the
present basis Of operations of Omar Pacha, was
The emporium of this
The geographical position of this country, and
Its commercial Importance, have made it the
theater Of great national conflicts, both in an
Gent and modern times. Here Pompey and his
leglons met and routed the Parthians /; here the
byzantine Greeks and the Persians struggled
Tor the mastery. Still later, Tamerlane overran
the country with his Asiatic hordes, ex,irpated
the Persian religion, and introduced Islamism
in its stead"
The conquest OF this territory by Russia has
greatly imperiled the Indian possessions of
England, and hence her deep interest in the
present struggle. The Cossack, who pitches
his tent on the shores Of the Caspian, is nearer
to the Capital of the P%unjaub than to St. Pc,
tcrsburg, and the Russian boundary line is only
nine miles distant from the great thoroupbfare
over which British manufactures, to the value
OF Two millions sterling, annually find their way
into Persia.

A WONDERFUL MIRRoR.-Among the
curiosi.ies exhibited in the Paris exposition,
was huge concave mirror, the instrument
OF startling species ofoptical magic. On
standing close to it, it presents nothing but
a magnificectIy monstrous dissection Of
your phisioynomy. On retiring a couple
Of feet, it gives your own face and figure
in true proportion but reversed, the head
downwards. SUIT retire still further, stand
ine at the distance of five or six feet from
the mirror, and behold, you see yourself
not reflection; it does not strike you as a
reflection; but your veritable self, standing
in the middle part, between you and the
mirror. The effect is almost appalling
from the idea that lit suggests something
supernatural; SO startling, N fact, that men
Of the strongest nerves will shrek invol
UNFAIRLY at the first view. If you raise
your cane to thrust your own self, you
will sec it pass clean through the body and
appear on the other side, the figure thrust
ing at you the same instant The artist
who first succeeded in f,shioning a mirror
Of this description, brought it to one of the
French kings; if we recollect Alright, it was
Lous Nv, placed his Majesty on the right
spot babe him draw his sword, and thrust
at the figure he saw. The king did so, but
seeing the point of sword directed to his
own breast. threw down his weapon and
ran away. The practical joke cost the in
ventor the kings patronage and favor. his
Majesty being so much ashamed of his
own cowardlcc that he never would again
look a. either the mirror or is owner.
