Landry. GREETING:
GENTS. -
We wish to present to your Hon. Body
the present necessities of Comp. g. 9Th Reg.
La. Vol, and to pray You Hon. Body to take
some notice of and make an appropriation for
he hour of need which will, soon be UPON dis.
Our regimental uniform will probably not be
completed until thes 18th Of Oct. They have
been ordered but owing to the large body of
soldiers and the. scarcity Of facilities for the
prep ralions Of clothing, it win be impossible
for the Government to prepare the necessary
apparel in time to meet the necessities Of the
approaching winter. The 'Tensas Rifles, from
the Parish Of TIensas and sabipe.and Union
Rifles from the Parishes Of Sabine and Union
have already been supplied with clothing by
their respective parishes; and the patriotism Of
the sons Of st. Landry will certainly bear d
favorable comparison with that ofany other
parish Of the State, when they become aware
Of the necessities Of her volunteers. The re.
quisite clothing will be two hundred under
shirts. two hundred pairs Of drawers, (~aaniel,1
twoh hundred pairs Of socks, one hundred 1an.
mel bands, eight inches in width, one hundred
overshirts and any other conveDisncea which
you can con yeniently send. Should there be
any obstacle in the way of the passage Of 4 bin
to that effect by your Hon. Body, if one Of
your number has patriotism enough land We
hope and think that each has) 10 present our
condition to the ladies Of st. Landry, we are
satisfied that they will with cheerfalnesus and
alacrity supply the requisite articles.
We would not under any circumstances
other than the present ask your intercession il
our behalf. 1t is impossible for several Of our
company to purchase the clothing necessary
for the approaching winter, and many of them
have neither relatives nor friends TO whom they
could apply; and furthermore il each Of ns
possessed untold wealth, we could get nothing
here IS military regulations Iprohibit us from
passing the chains of sentinels.

Asks@ Idncoln's prociansations and messages

that the constitution and Union are to be pre.
served at all hazards. The newspaper. oracles

or restoring the constitution aud Union, The

all have occasional references to the sacred
ness of the constitution and the indiyisbility
Of the Union.

bids. Every one Of them is obliged to admit
that the constitution is broken and set aside.

This is parallel process that. by which
Medea is tabled to have persuaded the daugh-
ters Of Pelias that they could restore their
aged father to youth. They cut him into
pieces and boiled him il a cauldron, in the
promise that he wo1ld reissue in full vigor.
Medea's counsel was given to obtain revenge
upon Pelias, They who hated the old consti,
'ul'on' because its letters protected the rights
OF The South, have DAD Meaea's success in per-
shading the people Of The North to cut il in
pieces IN the hope that it will emerge from

daughters of Pelias, they will find they have
their kindred, at The suggestion of

Of a eomptonise-not q word said about q

through the instrumentality Of powder and

This language means, if it has any meaning
intended to be understood by the masses Of
The people, that the war must be carried en-
until the object for which the Government
called armed men into the field il accomplished
That object is, according to The Presidents
first proclamation calling for troops, to dis
perse bands Of armed men couspiring against
the Government. by resisting the execution Of
the Federal laws. :u
But there are men among ns talking ~fereely
about eonauering a peace, who would not be
satisfied if every Confederate regiment and
company was disbanded, aud the laws of the
bnlot1 were executed in every Southern State
With as little impeachment as they were q year
ago. Some individuals aud Journals talk as
though they were actuatad by u spirit Of dead

subjngation and determination.
The efforts of these Northern fire eaters are
directed increasingly and theoretically to in
tame the minds ofthe people with the same
n,alicious and revengeful feelings against those
who differ from them in opinion. There is to
ne with them no federation of any views re-
spectine the war;, slavery or any other poiiti-
topic but their own. For this end there is
TO pc but one political party in the country,
and oil who do not swear fealty to it and its
leaders are to be branded as secessioaists and
traitors, This is what is meant by many in
.helr csamo about conquering a peace. They
would not only deprive Southern men Of their
rights, but rob Northern men
OF that personal freedom without which a man
is a serf and o slave.

Died of eongesiive fever, on Wednesday
morning at 3 O'Clock, at the residence of her
father in Grad Coteau, Miss HARRIET Lou
IsA DUNBAR, aged 20 years, 4 months, and Ii
days. Requieseat ia pace.
It is with feelings Of profound regret that
we undertake this feeble tribute Of respect to
the memory Of one, whom bnt TO know, was TO
admire aud love. Gentle, kind, and affection
ate, poor Harriet won The esteem Of oil who
bad the happiness of her acquaintance, In
her several relations of daughter, sister, and
friend, she WIS assnredly q pearl beyond price,
and utterly surprising the power Of words to
it would be difficult indeed to ind her equal,
Or to point to one whose uaspotted purity Of
fife,-almost rivaling the angeiic--conld better
serve as a model for christian young ladies.
The Almighty disposer Of events alone, knows
the full measure Of her merit and in His ado
rable presence she ia now. we confidently trust,
enjoying her unspeakable reward the RECON-
pense Of her inyiolahle fidelity to bis laws.
Her bereaved and affected parent has our
heartfelt sympathy. He indeed has suffered a
loss iucalculab!e;-a loss whoee adequate com
peflsation mnst be sought for. in the world be-
yond the tomb.
The writer of this had the happiness of en-.
joying the friendship Of the departed; ard al
who knew her viii agree that our little tribute
by no means exaggerates her worth. i
After a short illness of six days, which she
bore with resignation, she expired calmly and
d%evoutly on the morning of Wednesday 18th.
In dropping a tear to her memory, let US
breathe an ardent prayer for her soul's happy
repose.
Sad, silent, and sacred the tears that now fl o
Ger the tomb OF poor Harriet, who slumbers be.

She loved all mankind, now in bliss let her dwell,
