II We have read somewhere
it don't matter whereof a profes
sor of a college who was accus.
toned to demand of students an
excuse whenever they were dilato.
tory at their recitatiOns. The ex-
cuse given, he invariably added,
''very well, but don't let it happen
again." One morning a married
student happened to be behind
time, and was promptly interro-
gated as to the cause. Slightly
embarrassed, he replied, "The
truth is, sir, I had an addition to
my family this morning, and it
was not convenient to be here
sooner" every well,n replied the
professor, in his. quick, nervous
manner, every WE'LL. but don't let
1t happen again N "a.
For the past week or two, the
Banner 5i' has been rather neglected
by us. Like the embarrassed stu
dent, we have a like apology to
offer our readers for newspaporial
shortcomings. The narrative does
not inform us of the reply, if any,
made by the student TO the exact
ing professor. Most assuredly We
shall make no such rash promise
to our readers.

E In the election farce past,
Bossier parish has often been ac.
cused of not doing her duty. In
fact, every parish in the State,
with the exception of Iberville,
arrogated to itself, through its
press, the "holier than thou" prin,
ciple. Even Jackson parish, with
a registered white majority, gave
only about $50 democratic gain,
and forthwith Wanted itself "the
white mans parish !"
At the time we said nothing.
Yet, we think our friends of the
press had little justice, not to say
charity, in their composition.
We had a registered negro ma
jority Of 1920 votes to contend
with. That majority was reduced
to 2l3. 1873, outof 563, registered
white men did not vote. Only 2
men calling themselves white, (?)
voted the scallawag ticket. We
elected a democratic District Clerk.
Recorder, Assessor and Coroner.
And yet Bossier did nothing
yea, nothing-say our. uncharita-
bic friends. fty.. -sislls .s.'. .
|. But let the past go. We have
to deal with the future. The ball
is in motion, and we will bet our
stamps on old Bossier giving Sey-
mour and Blair a handsome ma
jority. AS the one we have is
getting rather hole-y, we would
like to wear a good hat on it. No
objection toa brick in it, provided
the brick is furnished.

AZ There is no mistake of the
tact, the bad teachings of radical
emissaries has wrought a wonder
ful evil influence upon the minds
OF their deluded victims-the ne
groes. In other sections, we fire.
quently read of outrages, horrible
to contemplate, perpetrated upon
the persons of refined white ladies.
by the most brutal of fends.-
Were we disposed to do so, we
could fill our paper with details Of
these most horrible outrages. The
heart grows sick, revolving at the
savage fiendishnes it fain would
not believe true, were it not unde-
niable. t'''tN % i''' .
In view of these facts, we think
lt but proper that every lady of
the land should accustom herself
to the familiar use of firearms.
There is no harm in it. Proper
protection is not always on hand
in many ofthese dire emergencies.

o The Herald & Eagle, pub

want of patronage. The editor
states that parties who were able
to pay would send North for their
job work and newspapers, leaving
hls paper dependent upon those
who were unable to pay. So long
as our people persist in stich 3

New Orleans, July 23.-The bill
appropriating special funds in the
State treasury to defray the ex

by Gov. Warmoth, was yesterday
passed by both houses over the
veto. Resolution calling upon the
Commander of the Army for mill
tary, was adopted by both houses.
House passed resolution to ap-
point a committee to frame a new
charter for the city of New Or |
leans. Printing bill, as finally |
passed yesterday, gives the Gov |
ernor, Lieutenant Governor and |
Speaker of the House entire con |
troll of State, municipal and paro- |

powers them to establish one
Republican paper in each parish |

in opposition to. the bill, offered to
do the work defined for the official |
Journal of the State at half the I

q bonus of fifty thousand dollars

Senator 2 Oindexter, (colored) Rad |
