SHREVEPORT:

THE PRINTER.-The following beautiful tribute to
the followers of the " stick and rule, s from the pen
of B. B. Taylor, of the Chicago Journal
The printer is the adjutan OF thought anu ths eA-
Mains the mystery of the wonderful word that can
tindIe hone as DO song can that word . ~e with
a bandip.hand warmth in it-lor the author and the
printer are engineers together. Engineers indeed
When the Corscan bombarded Cadz, at a distance OF
FIVE miles it was deemed the very triumph OF engl-
neering But what is the range Of this, whereby they
lombard the ages yet to be?
There at the case he stands, and marsfais INTO
line the forces armed with TRUTH clothed with MINOR
tai English And what be nober THAI the
equipment of thought in sterling Saxon with spear
or shield therein and that commissioned when we are
dead, to move gradually to the latest syllable OF
recorded time" This is to win victory from deatb'
for this has no dying init.
The printer is called aborer and the office he per-
forms is toll Oh it is not work, but sublime life
he il performing when he thus fires the engine that
il to y worded truth in grander curve than missile eer
before described fDgng it into the bosom OF an age
He throws off his coat, indeed, but we wonder the
rather that he does put his shoes from oil his ieet
for the place wherein he stands is holy ground.
A little song was uttered somewhere long ago; 1t
wandered through the twilight, fecbe7 than star; II
died upon the ear But the printer takes it up where
it was living there in silence like wounded bird, and
he sends it from the ark that had preserved it, and it
flies on into the future with the olive branch OF peace,
and around the world with melody like the dawnng OF
a spring morning.

PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATIC by 5000 MAJoRlTY-
The Harrisburg pa Patriot, of the 18th inst, says
that /" the Democratic majority in the State, on the
popular vote will not be short of 5000" Thus OF the
four great States which voted Tuesday, the 18th
October, Indiana and Pennsylvania went Democratic,
and Ohio and Iowa Republican. Pennsylvania has
twentysx electoral and Indiana thirteen; total
Lhirty.nine. Ohio has twenty-one and Iowa eight !;
total twenty-nine If there had been President
elected majority of ten votes for the Democracy in
the four States would have been recorded Thus for
this year. the Democracy have succeeded in the follow
ing Northern States Connecticut, Oregon, Indiana,
aud PENNSYLVANIA. There is little doubt that we shall
add to the list in November, New York and New Jer-
sey California is reliably Democratic. OF the border
States we have carried Kentucky, and shall carry Mis-
souri, Delaware and Maryland. North Carolina and
Tennessee, in the South, we have swept by an inn
mense majority. In 1872 the whole South, with the
possible exceptions of Florida and South Carolina,
where the negro votes two to to the white will
be Democratic. This Southern electoral vote, added
TO our Democratic States at the North, will elect
Democratic President. These facts to inspire the
Democrats and Conservatives of Alabama on the Sth
of November They show that it is no sham battle we
are fighting and no hopeless struggle we are making.
Victory beckons us on, and can count the ballots
by which it is to be reached Every good mans vote
is nail in the coffin of the Jacobn devil.

TIE MEMPHIS AND Ell PAso RAfLgoAD.-A lengthy
confidential letter has been shown to u.s. from which
we learn that the Receiver appointed in the suit lately
instituted, has returned from France bringing half
million in gold and ten large, fine locomotives.
A full organization of the company will take place
on the 25h of this month, and there is hope that
very prominent gentleman in New York, of high inan-
cia reputation will be induced to take the Presidency
and if he does there will be difficulty about the work
going rapidly forward.
The charges made against the management in the
late suit instituted, transcript Of which we copied
from the Civilian entirely parte, and it is said
in a great degree untrue. And Mr.. Swenson, whose
name was used in the petition, had never the al
legations othe petition though he had authorized bis
name be used, under incorrect representations made
10 him.
These are the statements in the letter referred to
which were confidential. The correctness of the state
ments will soon be verified, and repeat them, no
by request but because unfavorable impression ha
probably grown ont of the representations which w
copied from the Civilian which paper Of con
sdered them proper matter for public information a
we did. We hope that the road will soon be in pro
gress and as our readers know from previous state
menta, we are inclined to believe that it will

How TO KILL TowN-H you wish to kill a town,
put up no more buildings than you wish to occupy
yourself. If you should have empty building and
any should wish to rent it. ask about three times
its value. Look at every with scowl.
Turn cold shoulder to every business man, or me-
chanc who seeks home among you. Go abroad for
your rather than purchase from your own mer-
chants and manufactures at the same prices. Refuse
10 advertise that persons distance will know
that any business is being done in your place. A
prompt and close observance of these rules will ruin
any town in two years.

The mistake that the Germans made in not surren-
derng at Sedan instead Of insisting upon the surren-
der of the French is thus set forth by enlightened
Eastern newspaper:
1.-THE poor devils crouching in the woods
around Paris badly cowed. At Scissors, the slaugh-
ter too was dreadful that the Duke of Mecklenburg
Schwerin wept and wruLg his hands," From the ac-
counts given by the World of the earlier portion of
the campaign we felt satisfied that the affair would
end pretty much as the World describes t--that is,
in the imprisonment of the whole Prussan army around
Paris with angry peasants rising around them, the
great guns of the fortresses playing on them Garbad
and Bazae cutting off their retreat to the Rhine and
the National Guard cutting off everything else, and
the Crown Prince wasting away with hunger in Yer
salIes They now see how much better it would have
been for them to have surrendered at Sedan as the
French would then have let them 60"
