Friendship.
A FRAGMENT.

What blessed boon is friendship, If
it waters the heart with the holy dew
of love. Fancied friendship may and
often does exist, but it is like the gan-
dy flower, fair to look upon, yet when
we would inhale it's fragrance, there is
none, or tits like the empty basket rich
ly adorned; but the gem which would
have enriched its beauty is found want
ing. This is sunshine friendship. But
give me the dear old heart and hand
that is ever faithful and ready, it is
true friendship-is like the modest vio-
let which from its lowly bed fills the
air with its perfume, and crushed
though it may be, it still retains its old
sweetness. Such is the friend we can
clasp to our heart and feel that we are
not alone; and when adversely has
thrown her gloomy mantle around us
tits sweet to think in that dark hour We
have one friend who will still be more
faithful than when our home was the
abode of joy and prosperity. F. e.

other Radical States, are very relig-
ious and have holy horror of any
thing that does not SAVIOR of cant and
straitlacedness. They, to the number
of 1900, have signed a petition to the
councils asking for an ordinance to pro-
hibit the news boys from calling out
their papers on Sunday morning. This
step in puritanism, no doubt only the
acant courier OF something not yet de-
veloped, has raised the ire of the press
and the more charitable citizens who
see no crime in the boys earning few
dimes to gain bread and butter for
themselves and parents. The boys
have held an indignation meeting and
are getting out counter petition
which is being numerously signed by
those who despise these canting hypo
critics. Such is Radicalism and its al
" Puritanism. IkEbLA'

Judge keiso'

In the midst Of the disaster
which has befallen the Democratic
ticket in the parish we have the
consolation to know that the Hon.
John Kelso has been reelected par
ish Judge by handsome majority.
His success can only be apprecia-
ted by rejecting on the incalcula-
BILE calamity which would have be-
fallen the parish if his competitor
had been elected. Judge Kelso is
one of our own people. A gentle
man by instinct, and scholar by
cultivation, he has brought to
bear on the discharge of his duties
such qualities as are rarely met
with in the incumbents of judicia
offices in these, degenerate days
During the short time he has beer
on the bench he has won the appro
baton of all by the dignity of hi
department, the propriets of hi
conduct, and the general abillt,
with which he has discharged III
duties. His name added grea
strength to the ticket, and his sue
cess is a subject of general congra1
ulatiOn.

nn- Now that the election is over

nmL Now that the election is over
we cannot refrain from expressing
our admiration at the splendid man
ner with which the campaign in the
parish was planned and executed
by the Democratic candidates and
the Democratic p a ty leaders.
Their plans only failed BY the re-
missness and indifference of some
of the Democratic voters, OF whom
we had right to expect better
things. Early in the campaign a
great cutlery was raised against
sold politicians" and deliberate
proposition was made to the Dem
ocrats to turn over their organiza-
ton to set of political babies who
set themselves up as the leaders of
the people. And yet, the result
shows with how much ability, tact
and Judgment the "party hacks "
as the neophytes call them, did
their part OF the work. Though
DISTINGUISHED themselves, they
worked with all the energy OF
men whose own private interests
were at stake. A political leader
requires as much training as the
general of an army. 1t would have
been about as absurd in the Demo
Gratis of Rapides to entrust the lea
dership Of the Democratic masses
to these ambitious children, as il
would have been in General Lee tc
call up a Quarter-master-Sersean'
and bid him lead the Conteder
ate forces against Mcclellan at The
battles around Richmond.

the graves are without shadow OF
protection from hogs, dogs and cattle.
There is a public road through 1t

much damage to some OF the graves.
Such a condition of the place where
every one of us has some relative or

ilized community and is sad common.
tary upon our affection for the depart
ed. The Egyptians, two thousand
years ago, took more care OF the earth
ly remains of their dead, than we are
doing in the broad-light of the Nine
tenth century. If affection for the
dead, does not prompt our action IN
the matter; the reflection, selfish
though it be, that we ourselves shall
find there resting place for our bones,
will. have no doubt, stir up some OF
our citizens to determined and uni
ted effort to improve the cemetery.
As perhaps the most feasible plan by
3 which to proceed, it is suggested that
a meeting be called of all interested
and that an Association be formed

Just before going to press we re-
ceived the New Otleans papers of

by both parties. 1t is probable
that both have elected about an
equal proportion of members of the
Legislature, with the chances OF
the election ofthe city ticket large

dates. The election was perfectly

A Body and Mind Disease.

Such is dyspepsia. The stomach
and the brain are too intimately allied
for the one to suffer without the other,
SO that dyspepsia and dependency are
inseparable. It may be added, too,
that irritation of the stomach is almost
invariably accompanied by irratation
of the temper.
The invigorating and tranquilizing
operation of Hostetter's Bitters is most
powerfully developed in cases OF indl-
restion. The first effect of this agree
able tonic is comforting and encoura-
ging. A mild glow pervades the sys-
ten, the chronic uneasiness in the re-
gion of the stomach is lessened, and
the nervous restlessness which charac-
terizes the disease is abated. This
improvement is not transient. 1t IS
not succeeded by the return of the old
symptoms with superadded force, as IS
ALWAYS the case when unmedicated
stimulants are given for the complaint.
Each dose seems to impart perma-
nent accession of healthful invigora-
ton. But this is not all. The aperl-
ent and anti-bilious properties OF the
preparation are scarcely secondary in
Importance to its tonic virtues. Ii

ton is soon brought within proper llm'

INTERFERENCE In ELECTIONS.

The country awaits with anxiety the
news of the attempt made on Tuesday
by the Radical administration to carry
the election in the city of New York at
the point of the bay onet. AT the ias'
session CT Congress an act was passeu
placing the land and naval forces al
the disposal of the President to be used
as was alleged, in preventing trand ana
violence at the polls. These forces
were recently used so effeetually Ill the
city of Philadelphia as to secure .ne
ascendency of the Radical ticket ne
Democratic city of New York. whose
Is, 900 Democratic majority the hao'-
calls have hitherto failed to reduce by
any peaceful means, forms the next oo-
;ect of attack. For weeks past all the
disnosable forces of the army and navy
haze been concentrating at that point,
and the President announces his deter
mination to carry out the act OF Con-
oress to the letter. These acts have
naturally excited the indignation OF
the people of New York, and steps
were taken under the leadership OF
Governor Hoffman to vindicate the pu-
rity of the ballot-box at all hazards
Hoffman is not the nan to yield tame
ly to unlawful interference, and his
measures, when once taken. will be
sustained by the whole body OF the
Democratic party of New York. The
prospects of a grand riot and much
bloodslled at the polls Tuesday, were
at last accounts, very fair indeed. II
is the policy of the administration to
provoke collision, and then tire tht
I Radical heart with the old cry OF rebel
l lion, resistance to authority, and othe
j such stuff as that. It's object is, o
! course, to apply the Radical theory, a
s announced in the Louisiana cases, ant
q count in the Radical members from
q New York on the ground of intimida
ton. Even VIGOROUSLY fraudulen
and imperfect census has been taken t
: assist them in their objects. ,
Many years ago the appearance OF
" company of U. 5. troops at an elect'o
J. in Virginia was sufficient to arouse til
u indignation of people of all parties
d every section of the country. Nov
