Rochefoucauld has said that woman will par
don any fault that her beauty has created. and il
the lady who recently wore on Canal street re-
markedly lovely chene popln (which we under
stand was purchased from that redoubtable dry
goods merchant. F. r. Justus) will not construe
our rather critical admiration into insolent pre-
sumption, we will promise 10 future to exercise
more control over our visionary organs.
Mr.. J. has just received a splendid stock of the
most fashionable patterns, which be has instructed
his salesman to dispose of at once. so as to afford
spsce for another large invoice soon expected.
His store is always well supplied with every
quality of dry goods, and we would intimate to
our fair friends that No. l62 Canal street is the
very Identical place that they have long been
seeking.

Messrs. L. Bertoli & H.. Hefker have entered in.

Messrs. L. Bertoli & Ii. Heffker have entered in
to copsrtnership for the purpose Of carrying on
produce business. These gentlemen are well
qualified, from long experience, for this psrticu-
lar branch of trade, and their four years ac-
quaiatanceship with "Confed rations /" has.
doubtless, taught them what "good feed Z"
should be. Mr.. Leon Bertoli was for long time
connected with the house of Mizzi & Bertoli, and
we feel assured that the full share of patronage
enjoyed by the old firm will not be withheld from
the new.
So to all produce dealers and th,se desiring
onions, potatoes or beans for family supply, we
commend Messrs. Bertoli & Heffker's establish
ment at IS Old Levee street.

BDrroE VAN BuREN PREss According
to promise in my last letter, i must
chronicle the working and doing of the
carpet bag fellows and the scal.awags, as
detailed in the last evenings report ofmy
/" Jay.bird !" in which he says: The car
petbaggers have been very busy all week
counscling one to another what would be
the best course of policy to adopt to Sc
cure the nomination, for member to the
Rump at Washington, to s. the carpet
bag man Finally Oh Friday morning,
the 7th and just after my bird arrived at
the headquarters, F., the prophet for these
parts, says to s. the aspirant: S. | have
consummated plan that will defeat the
scallawaggers and perfectly satisfy them
that all is right and on the square; and
that was, that, when the Convention met,
they would pass a resolution that each
township should be entitled to three
votes. (Wonderful "idia.") S. was
perfectly delighted thought all safe. So
on Friday evening and Saturday morn
ing, sends runners to all the farms to
warn the nigs' to come in on Saturday,
that he wanted them to represent Pitts
burg township, and three others in which
many RAIDS lived. These four townships
would have secured twelve votes in Con
venton for carpet baggers, while at the
election for RampmaR they would. not
have polled solitary vote.
Early Saturday morning put flea in
the bill of my bird, with directions to put
it, the full depth of the length of his bill,
in the ear of certain scallawag My
bird executed the mission, for he is an
bird. You just bet that the flea
had a wonderful effect. No expression
of preference was agreed upon; Conven-
ton adjourned amid confusion and bad
feelings without any conclusion as to who
was to be next Rumper.
Judge b. arrived at a late hour in the
morning, and he was distributing few
1eas also. They are once out generated
and outnumbered.
What next move will be is difficult to
tell. and it's equally as uncertain when
another move will be made by them
They are so weakened and demoralized
from their late revcrses that it will, evi
IDENTIFY, require great deal Of time and
money to place them on war footing.
S. speaks of applying to the military to
have F. removed from this Diocese as
prophet and some one appointed in his
stead-says that must BE- done or he must
be stoned to death as in olden times.

to which he was educated and for which
he is presumed TO have had a procliyity.
This was in 1924, at Fort Vancouver,

historians tell us rhy Grant dropped out
ofthc army. He is vaguely reported to
have resigned. But army captains do not
resign TO take up wood cutting and the

The love they have for one another.

This is the way Senator FOWLER of

Radicals: ...
FOWLER ON KELLY.--I have only spoken
a few civil words to him. In the begin
ming | detected him as 4 revolutionary
conspirator. For the sake Of those |
love and who love Inc wish to declare |
never called on him, nor had intercourse
with him. He has committed malicious,
deliberate forgery on me in writing Il
speech as mine which never delivered.
FOWLER ON BUTLER--He is a bold
genius that rises above the dusty and
tortuous paths of the common sneak.
He mounts upon strong pinions high up
in the atmosphere of never ending and
uncOntaminated falsehood, and basks in
his native clement He is thorough
bred no trace of truth contaminates his
veins or stains his memory. He seeks to
perfect the false by eliminating ali the
true. He is the immaculate and Protcan
liar of the age, as well as the very "god
Of thieves"
