The following from the New Orleans
Times Of the ninth, indicates that the Repub-
lican party Of the South occupies higher
opinion in the estimation Of the Southern
people than the Southern Democratic press
would have us believe, and also shows that
the epithet 'scallawag," so freely applied to
all Southern men who prefer the welfare of
the country and the hopes Of the future to a
sullen cherishing of the passions Of the past
is losing its terrOrs:
I'm making our comments on the Demo
cratic recruits who have joined the Crescent
City Republican Club, we had no idea that
they were so respectable IN numbers and
character. The LIST. as published in the
REPUBLICAN, shows quite an array Of old
citizens, and we can not withhold the ex-
preston of our surprise to find that they
have thus gone over to the common enemy.
Our previous allusion to this detection was
made under the impression that its personnel
was composed Of the rag, tag, and bobtail
of the Democratic party. whereas we find
that in the list figures some OF the shining
lights of the days gone by

Chattanooga acknowledgements OF the
Sons of Louisiana.

Sons Of Louisiana.
The excursion of the Sons of Louisiana
over the Chattanooga Railroad, on Sunday
last, was largely attended. the number OF
excursionists being much greater than OF
the former similar occasion. The train OF
cars provided was much longer than that
used for the previous excursion, and this
train, long rs ii was, was well filled by
Jolly groups on pleasure bent, on all the
trips made from New Orleans to the present
terminus of the road AS the train moved
off its motion was accompanied by the
music Of Frank Fortunes band.
After a pleasant ride of fifteen miles.
passing through a country in partial state
of development, but which, to the slightest
observation, will obviously be.made, by the
Chattanooga Railroad passing through it, to
blossom like the rose, the train arrived at
Jeannetous plantation, where every prepare
ton had been made to pass the day pleas
antly, one of the principal means and ap-
planes being a large platform erected to
| accommodate the numerous dancers who
footed joyously all day long to the music Of
the excellent band under the direction OF
Mr.. Carl Babe. Dancing was not, of course,
, the only enjoyment. There was plenty OF
all that was good to cat and drink there
| where shade trees to stroll or recline I'M
| der, so that all different tastes were
| gratitied. The day passed Oh amidst hilar-
| ity, each succeeding train bringing a fresh
accession of pleasure seekers, and few re-
| turning until the frightening shades gave
| warning of the close of day. Then there
| was a scramble for the returning train, alto
| gether unnecessary, however for there was
| comfortable room for all. About three
! o'clock there was considerable sprinkling
OF rain, but this, instead of spelling the fun,
! appeared to increase the relish with which
| the company. especially the young peoole.
| enjoyed themselves.
This excursion, ike the preceding. was
arranged by the Society of the Sons of
| Louisiana for the benefit of their tomb
| fund. The arrangements were carried out
under the supervision of Mr.. +. j. Lewis,
| president OF the society. and Messrs. Dean.
vice president, l.. j. Courtere, secretary,
| and j. F. Barthclemy, treasurer. together
with other gentlemen. The arrangements
for the comfort of passengers We're com
| plete, and reflect great credit on the cour-
teous gentlemen who had them in charge.
| There is reason to believe that, as these
excursions are becoming more popular on
each succeeding occasion, they will be a
! permanent. institution. AMI the arrange
ments for them will be continually i'm
! proved and extended.

and he was sent here with funds by the
silent owner, to purchase cold poisons; but
he proves to be poor purchaser, as he spent
the cash for little ct ceteras not OF COM
mercial character, and fingered long. Mr..
Texas, in Waco, grew nervous at the great
delay, and telegraphed superintendent Bad
ger to arrest Cincinnatus. If Texas doesn't
hold the store in his own name, what right
has he to cause the arrest of the man who
can show documents to prove that he is the
proprietor! As the case now stands, Cap
tain Badger thinks he can not hold the ac-
cused more than century. When Cincin-
nati and Texas meet in Waco, the papers
there will perhaps gather an item or two.

Fruit PEELISGs.-Thcre is not one OF the
minor immoralities more culpable than or
so dangerous as the pernicious habit, ex-
tensively INDUCED in. of strewing the side
walks with the Feelings of fruit consumed in
walking the streets. We saw Yesterday. an
elderly gentleman. in descending the Gus
tomhousc steps slip and fail, in consequence
of treadirfg on an apple rind. 1t was for
tunate that the accident occurred SO near
the bottom Of the steps, else fatal injury
might have been the consequence. There
is an effective ordinance to protect people
from evil minded dogs; why not protect
them from curse provoking orange peel
There is an ordinance showing q tender re-
gard for the welI-being OF liUtle birds, why
not an ordinance to protect the otherwise
helpless peralnbulator from the possibly
fatal fruit rind! Were the police to have
some stringent authority TO act on this
grievance, much mischief might be pre-
vented.

A New IDEA IN TEMPERANCE. In a
temperance lecture recently given by Rev.
D. ". Vandevere. of Kingston, New York,
he remarked that no druggist parts with {.
deadly poison without "a physicians pre-
scription, and he would have some such
principle prevail in the traffic of liquor.
He would have license put i'll the hands
of the buyer, not those of the seller, he
would have an arrangement that no man
should sell liquor to any one who does not
have such a license, and no young man
should have license to buy q glass of rum
until he should be twenty-one.

Hodge came together in a very promiscuous
way, and with force One or both Of them
had about thirty dollars and pipe, which
articles unaccountly changed hands, when
assault and battery was added TO larceny.
Each made affidavits, and when before Re
oorder Hughton, Hodge was at the prison

stand, then they changed places, both claim
ing to be the injured party. To wind the
matter into a roll they were sent to the
Criminal Court for trial, one for larceny
and one for assault and battery. When the
caees are before juries there will be some
muddy evidence and confused jurors, unless
District Attorney Gutenberg succeeds in
finding bottom.

it quite thriving institution, and saw
those valuable washing machines being
turned out by whOlesale-but still not yet
fast enough to supply the demand. The
Grand Prairie, it is claimed by the prOprie-
tors, is by ali odds the best machine for
washing yet introduced, as it will wash the
dirtiest and smallest garments with the
same facility that other machines does the

furniture. does its work absolutely perfect,
and is fast replacing all others. We advise
