% A gentlemn who had care
fully trained up his servant in the
way he should go, so that when his
wife was present he might not de.
part from it, sent him with box
ticket for the theater to a young
lady. The servant returned when
the gentleman and his wife were
at dinner. He had, of course, been
told, in giving answers to certain
kind Of questions, to substitute the
masculine for the feminine pronoun
in speaking of the lady.
"Did you see him ?" said the
gentleman, giving him the cue.
"Yes sir" replied the servant "he
said he'd go with great deal OF
pleasure, and that he'd wait for you,

sa~ The Baton Rouge Gazette
says "more mad dogs about" We
suggest to our Red Stick friends to
kill off all their dogs, and thus get
rid of hydrophobia NatcAitoches
Times.
The killing off process has been
attempted time and again, but the
blood Of the slain seems to act like
seed sown for the production of fresh
dog crops. Exhaust the present
supply and 10 !! a new batch at once
springs forth to fill its place. It
really seems as though all the dogs
in the country were brought to this
devoted city to be INDUCED in the
luxury of "pizen sassengers" at four
bits head, with an occasional mad
dog bite thrown in for 1agniape, or
to give a quid pro quo for the treat
afforded them by the corporation.

CATTLE PLAGUE.-We regret to
learn that the disease known as the
charbon has made its appearance
among the live stock at the Plains
in this parish. A good many of the
farmers, Messrs. D. Shaffet, J A.
McHugh, Mccartney, Troth, Mrs.
Netterville and others have suffered
from the loss of mules, cows and
other stock. The disease is very
sudden in its attacks and runs its
course very quickly.
Already this unlocked for evil has
been sad blow to the interests of
those who have been visited by it,
and there is no telling how much
farther it may yet spread, unless
some check be given to its progress
soon.

: Mr. Pendleton,s PIan :,

The Evansville Courier seeks TO
direct attention from the damaging
point made 10 our editorial article on
" PENDLEToE's Finaneiering," BY
charging that our exposition Of his
scheme was that made by Brick "
PoMERoY; and proceeds in its usual
lucid style to expound " Pendleton-
ianism." Our presentation of PEN
DLETON's Greenback theory was not
copied from the La Crosse Democrat,
(Which has so much wider circulation
in the First District than the Courier.
but from the Chicago Times, the most
able organ of the party in the West,
and next TO PoMERoY's the largest in
circulation. In its. issue of Deem
Der 1st, 1867, before it had experience
ed the peculiar influence of PENDLE-
TON Greenbacks, and when it was in
a condition to comprehend thescheme
more impartialiy, it told its read
ers what it meant. 1t will bear a sec
ond publication for the special benefit
of the Democracy. Ia its issue Of
December l, 1867, on this subject, the
following language was used:
" The first group contains the Gin
scheme.) The grand feature Of this
scheme IS what is called payment of
the national debt In greenbacks. It
contemplates a new issue of green
backs equal in amount to the bonds
which'it is proposed to redeem Over
twelve hundred millions of fVe-twen-
ty bonds will become redeemable be-
fore 1872. Five hundred millions are
redeemable now. The way to pay
them, according to this plan, is to set
the printing presses in motion. So
long as the rags and lampblack hold
out we will have 40 trouble in paying
the bonds at maturity When all
have been Thus pGid, we shall have
added to our paper money the tri-
fling imitation of about 81 800 900 900.
making, all told, a circulating medium
of g 300 900, 900. Then we shall
have what are called good times,
splendid times. Wheat and green
backs viii be exchanged bushel for

sold for two barrels of legal tenders.
Collectors of Government revenue

lofty and capacious recepticles on
them, like those used ia handling
charcoal, and will gather in the pub !
lie taxes with pitchforks. To levy
FIVE dollars in gold will require one
horse wagon load Of orpenh hacks
But the Government bonds will be
paid The only question will be
how to pay the Government green |
backs. This is something the plan
does not contemplate. Specie pay
ments under it viii be reached

Illinois Republican Candidate for
Governor.

We have noticed a part of the
record of the Democratic candidate
for Governor Of Illinois. 1t is in
marked contrast with that of his
Republican competitor, General JOHN
NJ. PALMER. General PALMER was
born on Eagle Creek, Scott County,
Kentucky, and IS now fifty years of
age. His father, native Of Virginia,
moved from Kentucky to Illinois II
1921. General PALMER, IN his young
days, worked at the cooper trade,
taught school, studied law, Joined the
Democratic party. with which he
acted until 1854, in the meantime
having been a member of the State
Senate, and filed the Office of Probate
Judge for his county for several
years. He could not indorse the
Kansas-Nebraska iniquity In 1861
he was a member Of the Peace Con-
vention, and soon after volunteered
and was elected Colonel Of the Four
teenth Illinois Regiment. He rose to
be a Major-General, and continued in
the service until the close of the war.
The Chicago Journal says General
PALMER was popular in the army,
is popular among all classes Of citi-
zens, and with GRANT and LOGAN
and the State ticket nominated at
Peoria the other day, he viii carry

City Railroad director.

The City Council, at its meeting on
Thursday night last, selected as its
representative on the Board of Direc-
tors Of the Evansville, Henderson &
Nashville Railroad Company, a mem
Der of its own body, Mr.. JOHN A.
REITz, Councilman from the Sixth
Ward. The selection has impressed
many of our leading citizens as quite
Inappropriate and unfortunate for the
Road, which should be kept as free
as possible from political association,
if it is desirable to possess the conf
dence Of taxpayers generally. The
names of one or two other gentlemen
had been prominently mentioned by
leading Democrats, and before the late
Railroad election roas held, Mayor
WALKER and others, who it was
thought were authorized to speak for
the Council, gave assurance that
another choice should be made, going
so far as to express a decided prefer
ence.
We have been from the beginning
the sincere and unwavering friends of
the Road, and have in opposition to
the decided convictions of some in
whose judgment we could usually
rely, advocated the change in the
subscription which has recently
been made. We have now no de-
sire to place any obstruction in the
way Of the continued prosperity
of the enterprise; but We cannot
refrain from expressing the opinion
that it would have been better for
Mayor WALKER and the men who
are controlling city affairs to have
carried out his original choice. There
is a manifest improperly in the Couu-
Gil eleeting one Of its ot0n members to
such a position, and especially the one
who is its controlling spirit, and who

The Final Vnfe.


The Senate of the United States
will conxena to-day as=the- Court of
impeachment for the purpose of
taking the final vote. 1t Is, however,
extremely doubtful whether any
definite action viii be had, espe-
cially as it is hardly probable that all
the members will be able to be pres
ent, on account of the sickness of two
or three Senators. The whole coun-
try is most intensely excited upon the
subject, and it is very desirable that
as early decision as possible be
reached.
The prospects for the conviction
and removal of the man, who has
not only disgraced the Presidential
chair, but brought reproacb upon the
Nation, are not very promising. The
cause Of this failure, if such it shaD
prove to be, we think is chiefly to be
attributed to SALMON P. CHASE
From the very beginning of the trial
&c its close, his rulings, his conduct,
his associations, his temper, have all
indicated that his heart was not with
his party and the country, which was
suffering so greatly from the misrule
of the assassin's President. It was
expected that he would act the part
of the impartial judge, and therefore
could not manifest any personal par
tisan feeling; bat so far from that, be
has identified himself with the Pres
idential party in the Senate to so
great degree, that he has
forever forfeited the confidence
of his most devoted friends.
He has never forgiven the party for
his merited rejection in the Republi-
can National Convention of 1864. He
would in that campaign have thrown
bis influence against Mr.. LINCOLN, if
he had not known that it would have
been his political suicide. His appoint
ment to the Office Of Chief Justice
was against the better judgment of
the President. In 1868 it was early
made apparent that he would again
be bitterly disappointed in his ambi-
tious desire for the Presidency. He
has shown that he is willing to at
tempt the destruction Of the party to
crafty his own personal spleen.
Next to the influence OF the Chief
Justice is the antipathy of certain
Senators to Mr.. WADE, /
who happens to be the President of |
the Senate, and by virtue of his Office |
the next in the line of Presidential /
If the viii of the peo-
pie is to be defeated in this important
trial, and justice fails to be meeted
out to the arch-criminal, it will be
mainly from the causes above alluded
to. We hope that our worst fears
may not be realized, and righteous
verdict be given, so that the depressed
South and the whole country may re-
joice. But whatever may be the re-
suit, the Republican party will neither
be destroyed or dismayed. Tt has
passed through darker hours than the
pres ent. and come out into the glori-
Gus sunshine of victory. And so it
will be again. It is not in the power
Of ANDREW JOHNSON, nor the rebel
Democracy, nor few recreant leaders
to defeat Its great mission.
