Our District Judge.

Gov. Warmoth has appointed Hon. John
n King, Of Opelousas, Judge of the 9th
Judiciil District, in place Of Judge Porter,
deceased; which appointment was unans'
asousIy confirmed. by the Senate.
Col. King needs no Introduction by Us or
any n else, to the people Of this District
and State. He was, on several occasions,
we believe, . member Of the State Legisla-
ture, and Speaker Of the House. Just after
the warshe was elected to Congress. He is
widely knoyn as . ripe scholar, an able
lawyer, and an eloquent speaker.
The appointment b One that should, and
certainly will, give satisfaction to all. In
The name Of the people Of this D strict, we
thank the Governor for making the appoint
nent, and the Senate for confirming the
same.

The I'm 0rne Tax Law Repealed

There is a serious misapprehension in the

Petitions are being sent to Washington Tor

was repealed by limitation on the 3ist Gay
cf December, 1869. The tax now being
assessed is for the year 1852. After it is
paid no other income tax can be collected
or assessed without the enactment of an
entirely new law, which is not likely to be
brought about. The repeal of-the old law
is final and unconditional. 1t takes effect
as soon a. the tax for 1869 is paid. A

According to the announcement in the.
JOURNAL of the 9th inst, the conblned
Married Men and Bachelors Tournament
came off in tie Suburbs Of Opelousas last
Saturday. The Weather vas very dhiavo-
rable. The posts and arms holding The
rings had been so arranged, that the gal
liant Knights had to face a stiff wind, which
kept the rings in continual motion, and a
torrent of dust, during the head long
charge: But we s,aposc the reward for
which so many of them struggled and so
few could win, would have caused them to
face sterner things. !
At eleven o'clock the two associations,
headed by their captains, moved in process
sion from the Courthouse to the spot selec-
ted FIR the contest. The knights wore
no coats, the approaching struggle would
be too desperate for that. The Married
Knights were distinguished by a blue sash,
and rosette of the same color on the hat.
The Bachelors wore the same, but cfa red
color.
The Opelousas Brass Band was in atten-
dance, and enlivened the exercises with
martial music. A large crowd of both
sexes and all ages were present. on foot,
horseback, and in carriages. Hon. j.. j.
Morgan addressed the assembly, in an ap
~propriate speech, by way of introducing
the Knights and stating the purpose for
which they were convened. Speeches were
also made by Hon. E. TsLewis in behalf of
the Married Knights, and by our youthful
friend Laurent Dupr6 in behalf of the
Bachelors. Dr.. Jas. G. Campbell, S. B.
Harmon and J. W. jackson were appointed
Judges. Hon. Claudius Mayo, Proprietor
of the Opelousas Drug Store, Sign of the
Big Mortar, etc, acted as Grand Marshal
in his usual happy style.
The Marshal read she following
RULES GOVERNING THE TOURNAMENT.
l. The Knights are to ride alternately,
the married men commencing.
2. Each Knight to have three rides. and
while not riding to remain in rauks.
8. The captain of each company to select
the rider.
4. The Knight making the best time and
taking the most rings shall be entitled to
the crown. .s. .
