But from all indications, the
Peoples Party" wiU s,peep stakes
in the coming contest, and there.
BY, even if it were in my power,
save me from putting myself to
any unnecessary trouble about the
matter. The record that the Re.
publican party has made since its
four years Of power in tue State,
has not lef5 a very favorable i'm.
preston upon the minds Of NAM
who supported its principles at
the beginning Of its career, The
little transaction Of Wick,iEe, the
ex-Auditor of Public Accounts, in

tirely escaped the memory OF.
the people Of Louisiana, and

some hope ahead, and the people

EDTfoR HERALD: As the warm
weather has begun and very likely
to continue for some time, with.
almost a certainty Of It's returning
year after year, | would propose to
establish a swimming bath with o.
fresh running stream through 10 Of
about 20 feet square, from 2 TOT
feet deep, on a slant, with dressing
rooms, and private single baths
on the plan Of the Brooklyn swim
ming baths, ass w!J
I intended to have erected this
commodity, but cannot il it Is
much required. AS much depends
on the community, my not being
acquainted with these SOdskiay
principles, would submit this to
you for publication, and take the
opinion Of the several parties with
whom you may converse on the
subject. M 400
l have q spot selected which
would not only be convenient as 10
central location, but private aud
quiet, and | can put a fresh water
stream through II which will run
oil the year round.
proposed to charge for adiniS-
sion rs cents per single ticket, and
81 50per dozen, giving the ticket
holder the privilege of using the pri-
vate or swimming bath. Then l
thought Of having subscribers, but
Think that the first plan Is best, a.
I would wish 1t to be expressedly
understood, that l would reserve
10 myself the right Of refusing ad-
mission any one without q ticket,
and sell tickets to parties respecta-
bic, tickets not transferable out OF
the family It was purchased for,
without my approval This
would adopt to secure a respecta.
bic place then / proposed to have
certain hours for ladies and other
hours for gentlemen, to enable the
respectable community to enjoy
one Of the greatest blessings in life,
which l found requisite both for
comfort as we'll as health.
All the Northern cities have this
luxury, and why should not the In
habitants Of Vicksburg have the
same. AS much as | an inclined
to carry It out, / am just as disin.
clihed to wRsh away my money in
washing the community at large,
but as 1t would cost nearly $500.
| would wish to have your candid
opinion on the subject previous to
starting to work.
| am yours obediently.

That great and good man, Sen
ator Revels mot Washington
has been lecturing at the North,
not being required in his seat in
the Senate. OF his lectures the
New York Standard Republican J
says:
1t seems unaccountable that
Senator Revels should ask people
who are disposed to hear his lee
lures to listen to a rhetorical es'
say on "The Tendency of the
Age" or a long disquisition on
"The Press" about which he can
say but little that is of interest oil
value to his people. The condi.
ton of the colored race, theil
wants, their capabilities, and theil
prospects, should rather engage
his attention. He should be moi
only the champion, but the leader
of his people, teaching them Q
higher civilization, q purer NOR
ality. and q Hrmer faith in theil
destiny. Unless he can do Thu
be viii fail Is q statesman, and I'll
short Of his mission.

REMARKABLE PRESERVATION

REMARKABLE PRESERVATION
The San Francisco Bulletin says:
1.-THE remains Of all the Masons
who were buried at Yerba Buena
Cemetery, have been removed to
the Masonic burying ground. The
coffin of ]. Silsbee the actor, was
opened, and to the establishment
of all present, the body was found
to be in q remarkable state of
preservation. His former friends
say the face looked as natural as
though he had been dead but
twenty-four hours. Even the
clothg remained free from soil or
mold. The intermcnt took place
fifteen years ago. 1t is possible
that the sandy soil of the GENE.
terry has something to do with
this sin result.

THR TRANSIT OF YRNUs. "A rare
and important event In the astrO.
nOmical world Is to take place In
December, IS74-the transit of We.
nus across the suns disc. The
English astronomers, even at this
early day, are making preparations
for the observation Of the transit,
as II will take much time to select
remote stations, provide the neces-
sary instrument, and organize the
various parties. The object Of all
expensive and troublesome labor
Is to ascertain the sums distance
from the earth and the transit Of
Venus, which does not occur once
In a century, furnishes the best
known opportunity offnding out
that distance. The established
suppOsition that the sun is $1,000,
600 miles away from the earth has
been recalculated to be 4,000y0OO
miles too much, and the correct.
ness Of the latter theory will be de.
termined BY the transit. The best
points for the observation Of this
event vii be In the Marqneaai
IslandA tho mouth Of the AMOR
River BOMBAY, India MelbOnrne,
Australia, Turkey and Egypt.
