Is WILLIE GONE?
BY THE REV. T. W. CONWAY,


Superintendent OF Education Of the State O
Louisiana.
Is Willie gone-gone to the land above
Gone where all is good-where all is love!
Yes yes; on Angel wings, away
To the land of love, the land of dsy.
No night, no cloud, no " scarlet fever
there,
Nor sin, nor pain, nor death itself is where
Our Willie's gone-G land so rich, so good,
That saints are fed on ARgeFs food.
Is Willie gone-gone so far away
That we no more will hear him say:
Papa, ten cents for cake, and RI loUe you
I'll love Mama, Georgia, and Grand
too.''
Yes, gone where others, sweet and dear,
Said" Come, Willie, please come up here
Wen wait for Papa, Mama, ana Georgia
too,
And, while waiting. sing-we'lI sing " it'll

The hot solar rays that Tipen the harvests
generate many distressing diseases IL the
liver be at all predisposed to irregularities,
this is the season in which bilious attacks
may be anticipated. A weak stomach. too.
Is weakest in the summer months, and the
loss of vitality through the pores by ex-
cessive Precipitation is so great, that a
wholesome tonic, combining also the pro-
perties of q diffusive stimulant and gentle
exilarant, Is in many cases necessary 10
health, and under no circumstances should
be dispensed with by the sickly and debili-
tated. OF all the preparations intended
thus to refresh, sustain, and fortify the hu-
man frame, there Is none that will compare
with Hostetter's Celebrated stomach Bit
tiers. They have been weighed In the bal
ance of ca perience and not found wanting;
have been recommended from the first as a
great medicinal specific, not rs a beverage
and in spite of interested opposition from
innumerable quarters, stand, after a twenty
years trials, at the head of all proprietary
medicines intended tor the prevention anu
cure of all ordinary complaints Of the stom-
ach, the liver, the bowels and the nerves.
In the unhealthy districts bordering the
great rivers of the South and West, Hostel
ter's Bitters may be classed as the standard
one for every species of intermittent or re-
mittent fever. The people who inhabit
those districts, place the most implicit con-
fidence in the PREPARATIONS confidence
that is increased every year by the results
of its operation.
AS bitters, so called, of the most perni-
cions character, are springing up like fungi
on every side, the public is hereby fore
warned against the dram shop frauds. Ask
for Hostetter's Bitters, see that the label,
ETC., are correct, and remember that the gem
bottles only.

Jones VS.. NIusgrove.

In the Jackson Clarion charging that
handsome '-adorner'' of radical State money,
Musgrove by name, with '.gOing back" on
the scolored brother" 1t seems that Jones
and others of his color were visitors at the
Ice Factory, when 1t was thrown open for
public visitors. Musgrove was present in
the capacity of stockholder or some other,
and informed the darkies that the treat was
not exactly for the colored voters, only the
whites were 10 be admitted. The Pilot
refused Jones card. hence the Clarion pub
lished It. Amer awhile we guess, the negro
will discover the truth of Greeley's remark,
that these carpet-baggers use the negro
only 20 prey on. They want his vote, that
Is all.

The LehnnonI.nw school.

This school has reduced its course from
hfteen months to ten months. This has
been done without leaving out any of the
Important studies embraced in the old course
By this means there Is a saving of five
months time as well as the board and other
expenses of that time. In ten months a
young man can be thoroughly prepared for
the Bar, with not only diploma and license,
out familiarity with the rules of practice.
Many of the graduates of this Institution
are now Judges, Chancellors and Congress
men. The next session opens the first Mon
day in September. Address Judge Green,

CENTENARY CoLLEGE.-Rev. G. q.
Andrews the worthy pastor of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Charch South, in this city,
has been unanimously elected by the Board
of Trustees President of Centenary College,
jackson, La. While his acceptance, of
which we are not advised, would doubtless
prove greatly to his benefit, when viewed in
apecuniary sense, we do not think it would
meet with the appreciation of his congrega-
ton at this place.

From the Ce.traI Star

When Radical editors assert that the Dem
ocratic party made the laws of 1865, they
assert what Is not so. In fact they Iie-un-
der a mistake. Men of all parties assisted
in making those laws Governor Alcorn be-
ing as deep in the mud as any one else was

now Big Mingos in the Republican party.
There was necessity for the law at the
time. in the opinion Of those who voted for
it. The same Legislature that passed the
law repealed it as soon a. the supposed ne
cessity ceased to exist. When will Radical
editors cease to do evil and Learn to do

cents.
This is an entire new book By This cele-
brated author, and will prove to be very
popular, and must have large sale, for
George Sands style is noble, and beauti-
fully rich and pure. She has an exuberant
Imagination, and with it a very chaste style
of expression. She never indalges In decla-
nation, and yet her sentences are exquis-
itely melodious and full. She leaves you AT
the end of one of her brief, rich, melan-
choly sentences, with plenty of food for
future cogitation. No one can express the
charm of them; they seem like the sound of
country bells falling sweetly and sadly upon
the ear.

We objected when the news came to us
that the Governors influence was being ex-
erted against the Northern men of the party
especially, as if they were undeserving and
had done nothing to make the party what it
was-strong and compact.
To which the Leader replies:

contrary you know he has hOnOred them
