B6y- We call attention 10 the advertise
ment of the Dolbcar Commercial College,
which will be found in to days paper
This institution, founded in 1882, and char
tered by the Legislature of Louisiana, has
now attained to the front rank Of Colleges
for instructing young men in Commercial
knowledge. This it has acquired by its
own merits and thoroughly practical plan
Of education. II is claimed that IL is the
oldest Commercial College in the United
States. If proper attention is given by the
student, he is qualified before graduating
to keep any set of books, no matter what
the business may be, and do the correspon.
dence of any house. We refer the reader
to the advertisement, for particulars and
terms.

Cons UP AND REoIsrER.-Thc Board is
still in ssion at this place. 1t is mis-
taken idea with some, that they can regis
ter when they vote; the Board requested us
to correct this impression. When registra-
ton closes here, which may be in few
days, the door is closed and no more names
can be placed upon the list. Another i'm
preston (which we are requested by the
Board to correct) is that oil who register
will be required to sit on the juries. This
is not the case; many persons can register,
who cannot take the Jury oath.

The expedition numbered little the rise
Of hundred men. After n fatiguing march
they reached the my sterious ground about
the 10Th Of June. The place where the
company have been prospecting is near
Eagle Springs. about 200 miles west Of

about 20 miles this side OF the Rio Grande.
Upon their arrival the company imm ediate-

precaution 10 employ several experienced
Mineralogists and my informant thinks the
investigations for gold have been thorough.
The search Was continued for thirty days
without any success and the men tired and
disheartened, are, for the mostpari, on their
way home. When my informant left, there
still fingered about thirty, more resOlute
