The Story Of the Noses.
ONE OF N. LABoULAYE's NEW FAIRY sToRr

At DEWITT, in the neighborhood Of
Prague, there once lived a rich and
whimsical old farmer, who had a
beautiful daughter. The students OF
Prague, of whom there were at that
time twenty-five thousand, often
walked in the direction of DEWITT,
and more than one of them offered to
follow the pillow in hope of becoming
the son.in law of the farmer. The
first condition that the cunning peas
ant set on each new servant, was
this: 81 engage YOU" he would say.
"for a year, that is, till the cuckoo
sings the return of spring; but if,
from now till then, you say once that
you are not satisfied, | will cut off
the end of your nose. I give you
the same right upon me-" he added.
laughing. And he did as he said.
Prague was full of students with the
end of their noses glued on, which
did not prevent an ugly scar, and,
still less, bad jokes. TO return from
the farm disfigured and ridiculed,
was well calculated to cool the
warmest passion.
A young nan by the name of
Coranda, somewhat ungainly in man.
ner, but cool, adroit and cunning,
which az" not bad aids in making
ones fortune, took it in his head to
try the adventure The farmer re-
ceived him with his usual good ma
ture, aud the bargain made, sent him
to the field to work. AT breakfast
time the other servants were called,
but good care was taken to forget
Coranda. At dinner it was the same.
Coranda gave himself no trouble
about it. He went to the house, and
while the farmers wife was feeding
the chickens, unlocked an enormous
ham from the kitchen rafters, took
huge loaf from the cupboard, and
went back to the fields to dine and
take a. nap.
Are you satisfied ?" cried out the
farmer, when he returned at night.
perfectly satisfied" said Coranda;
ID have dined better than you have"
AT that instant the farmers wife
came rushing in, crying that her ham
was gone. Coranda laughed and the
farmer turned pale.
"A ham is only a ham," answered
his master. Such a triae does not
trouble me-" But after that time he
took good care not to leave the stu
dent fasting.
Sunday came. The farmer and
his wife seated themselves in the
wagon to 60 to church, saying to
Coranda, sit is your business to cook
the dinner. Cut up the piece of
meat you see yonder, with onions,

men tit to govern the South. Hestand, Of
Louisiana, favored the military plan, say
ing the States were in the hands Of rebels
He asked how can Republican govern
ments be formed unless the rebel govern
ments are put out Of the way. He hoped
the Association would not oppose Con

Association to counsel with and not dictate
to Congress. Hamilton opposed the bill,
after which the Association adjourned.

THREE STEAMBOATS, SUNK

THREE STEAMBOATS, SUNK
Starlight, billiard and Nauigator-
All running IN the Red Rioer trade
From the officers of the steamer Lady
Grace, arrived on Thursday, from
Shreveport, we learn that the steamer
Starlight, Capt. Hays, hence for
Shreveport, in going over the falls
above Alexandria, struck against the
rocks, knocking a hole in her side
below the water line, and nearly filled
with water. She was got off and
taken to Alexandria. Her cargo was
being taken out, and after stopping
the leak, would return to this city for
repairs.
The steamer billiard, Capt. Car
Isle, plying on the lakes above
Shreveport, struck stump on the
31st of January, in Soda lake, tear
ing nearly half of her bottom out.
She was running the bayou route in
the lake, owing to the low stage OF
water, when she met with the acct
dent. The billiard had on board
about $50 bales of cotton. The
steamer Caroline had been dis
patched to the lake to take off her
cotton. We understand that no at
tempt will be made to raise the boat.
The cotton will be saved. We
could not learn if there was any in
surance on the boat. sf
A dispatch to Geo, L. Kouns &
Bros, received late on Wednesday
evening, states that the steamer Nav
igator, Capt. j. N. Kouns, struck a
snag on Wednesday morning, 9th
inst, about thirty miles below Shrese.
port and sank to her boiler deck.
She had on board over 700 bales of
cotton and large quantity of beef
in tierces and other freight; also,
quite a number of passengers. The
and their baggage were
all saved, as the water only came up
to the cabin floor. Full particulars
will be given in few days.-New

SAD M1sHAP.-While Mr.. VIM.
Garig, was riding down Third street,
a few afternoons since in his buggy,
in company with friend, the horse
took freight near the corner Of Florida
street, and ran with fearful rjpidity
upsetting the buggy. The animal
pursued his course for a short dis,
tance, turning down Convention street,
in the direction of Lafayette, when
he was brought to a halt, but not
until after he had broken his right
hind leg near the ankle. The occu-
pants Of the buggy fortunately escaped
without injury, as did also, the vehicle
itself. The injury sustained by the
horse was SO great as to disable him
entirely, and it was deemed advisable
to put an end to his sufferings by
shooting him through the head.

CANDIDATES.

The Office Of City Treasurer being
an "ofice Of emoluments," naturally
brings out a number of aspirauts
that Of Selectman being one Of "work
and no pay" and very often attended
with more curses than thanks, is less
sought for by those best fitted for it,
and therefore it is, that we often find
the honors attending it more thrust
upon the recipient by his friends
than voluntarily assumed by himself
To find one clad with the duties and
responsibilities Of a position like this,
after having served an ordeal Of one
term, willing to accept for second,
is of rare occurrence. And yet the
office has to be filled, and some one
has to run for it, and it is right and
proper that the best Of men should be
selected and insisted upon for it, even
at the risk of sacrificing their indi-
vidual pleasure and popularity.
The community cannot well get
along without a local government
and it behooves every member of it
to see that that government is well
and fitly composed. Men having
the interests and welfare of their
constituents at heart, and endowed
with q high rectitude of purpose to
fulfill their official duties with an eye
single and impartial to the general
good, are the men for Selectmen, and
such we believe are Messrs. McVay,
Arbour, Gallagher, Wolff, and Dun
dass, whose names have been sub
mitted and are elsewhere mentioned
in connection with the approaching
municipal canvass. In the event Of
their election, which we presume to
be a foregone conclusion, we would
bespeak for them at the hands of the
community all that reasonable indul-
gence and allowance which con-
scientious "city father" has the right
of claiming from his children, but
which, as often happens, is either too
grudgIngly accorded or entirely de-
MED him and which tends to make
the office of Selectman frequently
anything but a bed of roses to its
possessor.
For the triune office of City
Treasurer, Collector and Assessor,
there are three new candidates run
ming against the present and old in
cumbent-Henry L. Wolfe, Esq,
whose ability, fidelity and efficiency
no one pretends TO question. and
against whose eligibility. the argu
ment Of rotation in Office" is the
most potential one that is brought to
bear. He seems to regard the oppo-
sition with the most imperturbable
sang Jroid, believing doubtless, that
the more candidates for the office the
better his own chance for reelection.
The candidates, take them as
whole, are capable and deserving,
and if there were only enough of the
"loaves and fishes" to go round, we
do not believe our citizens could 60
amiss in the bestowal of Offices upon
them all.

SEVERE AND VIOLENT WEATHER.
On the night of the sth inst, VIC
lent gale blew up from the North
west, continuing for the whole night
and the next day, and bringing with
it cold and freezing weather-the Sc
verest felt this winter. At our pres
ent writing, the weather is more
notwithstanding calm and tolerably
clear, with occasional CLEANS of sun
shine.
We see from some of our ex-
changes, that a terrible tornado Wis
tied certain belts of country along
the Ouachita as well as along the
Mississippi, about seventy-fve miles
above Vicksburg. Trees were up
rooted or wrenched FROM their trunks,
buildings and fences on plantations
were Frustrated, and, more deplora-
BILE than all, several valuable lives
were lost. The residence of Mrs. E..
r. Nelson was levelled by the storm,
and she, together with two of her
children, were buried under the fall
en- timber. The children were found
lifeless and Mrs. Nelson lived only
half an hour after being rescued.
