DANTE's BEArRIoE.-Th woman who
owed her immortality to the love of the
great Italian poet came of Florentine
family, and was named Beatrice Portinari.
She was only nine years old when Dante
first saw her, and had on red dress with
her ornaments suited to her age. AL
though SO young, she made a deep and
lasting impression on the mind of the
gifted boy. Nine years later he met her
again. This time she was dressed all in
white, and was accompanied by two
elderly ladies. She glanced at the poet,
Who, trembling and amazed, stood aside.
She bowed courteously to him, and from
that timo became his great inspiration.
She died at the early age of twenty four.
Dante feared from the first that she was
too pure and lovely for this earth, and,
while loving her he constantly watched
for her removal to brighter and better
world. Her influence over him was never
lost, but her soul always lowered around
the poet, drawing him to higher sphere
Of glory.

"and to make your election sure thing,

taxed in the hands Of holders, and
that ultimately the three or four

ggThe Clinton East Feliciana) Demo
crat, suggests that at an early day rep
resentatives from each parish East Fell
ciana and East Baton Rouge, meet and
ascertain what can be effected by joint
action toward the building of q railroad
between Baton Rouge and Clinton. We
earnestly hope that the suggestion will
meet with the favorable consideration it
deserves from every one directly or re-
motely interested In the success of SO de-
sirable q project.
The stockholders of the Clinton and
Port Hudson Railroad have it in their
power to give material impetus to the
movement and at the same time to pro-
mote their interests thereby. We hope
they will not be 10th in doing all in their
power to help forward the scheme.
If our East Feliciana neighbors will send
delegates to meet and confer with their
friends at Baton Rouge on this all-impor
tant subject, we doubt not, particularly
if seconded in their aims by the Clinton
and Port Hudson Railroad Company, that
they will be met in spirit Of hearty Co
operation on the part of our plan ters,
tradesmen and business men generally.
Let them come on as soon as practicable
and help to give shape and progress to "a
consummation devoutly to be wished"
