Editor Democrat Night before last two
travellers who claimed their names to be re-
spectively one DR. Hargis, resident of
Claiborne parish, and the other Dunlap, Of
Arkansas, called at my house, in Bossier
parish, and asked permission to stay all
night. / at first refused, but on their insist
ing finally consented. That night put them
in the same room, and on the following
morning DIR. Hargis claimed to have lost
three hundred dollars in currency and Dun
lar fifty five dollars in gold
do not know of certainty that either
of their statements are true. / did not see
either in the possession of any money except
that which DR.. Hargis had next morning,
which was one hundred and thirty-five dol
lsrs and which bore the appearance of being
the remainder of what had originally been
a $500 package, Judging from the wrapper
and the mark on it and one $50 bill besides
1t may have been trick by which they
expected to make their bill, as they both
stated that they had been travelling together
in Texas for several weeks. They came to
my home together and left in company.
If either lost any money I feel satisfied
that the man calling himself Dunlap got it.
This circumstance being so singular and
unusual, l thought 1T hut proper to give it
publicity, so that the public might be warn
ed against similar occurrences, and if posi-
bic, assist the injured person in the recovery
of his money and bring tie offender to jus
tice.
BY giving this communication a place in
your valuable paper you will greatly oblige
Your most obedient servt,
JAS A. EDWARDS.

The CODE OF HoNoR.-Weare
often amused and entertained by
listening to a recital of the early
history of Attakapas, by some Of
our old and respected eitizeus,
and are struck by the almost uni
versal habit, many years ago, of
settling the most trivial differen-
ces By the pistol. This certainly
bespoke brave people, although
we believe, as a rule, that all diff
culties can be settled as satisfac-
torily and honorably without
bloodshed as with it. mall quar-
rels, one or both parties must be
in the wrong, and if, upon mature
reflection, the guilty party discov-
ers his mistake, we hold that it is
more brave to acknowledge it,
than it is to fight duel to main
tain a false position We do not
think people less brave now than
when duels more frequent, and
we believe it the duty of all good
citizens to encourage bloodless
settlements of even the most ag-
gravated difficulties instead of
gratifying a morbid taste for strife.
To show the degree of improve
ment that time has wrought, we
will state that we have it from
good authority, that in the parish
OF st. Martin alone, in one gear,
(about 1866 sixty flee duels were
fought, and one man fought three
duets IN one day. New Iberia
