The Steamer Selma.

We recently had the pleasure OF
making trip to New Orleans on
Capt. Picketts boat, the Selma.
The Selma is considered first class
boat in insurance circles, on ac-
count of the great strength of her
timbers and the excellence of her
machinery. She is a new boat, and
was built specially to run between
New Orleans and the Alabama
river, and made unusually strong
on account of the storms that often
occur ON the gulf between those
places. We were caught in a storm
in the Mississippi, on. the way down,
and the Selma resisted it like a
rock. a 80 .' ''-..
Her state-rooms, in the ladies'
cabin especially, are large and well
furnished. The fare is all that an
| epicure could desire. The officers
are gentlemanly and accommodate
ing; and Capt. Pickett is ever
watchful, and as careful for the
comfort and safety of his passen-
gers as he could be for his own
family.
Capt. Pickett owns also another
steamer, the Hamilton, of very light
draft, which he intends to run in
the Bayou Courtableau during the
low water season. Those shipping
by or taking passage with him then,
will not incur the expense o flighter.
age, nor be detained on the ba1
known as the "Little Devil"
The dates Of the departure Of the
Selma, from Washington and New
Orleans, will be found by referring
to the advertisement.

We think we had better be in
favor Of dividing the parish. The
bill will be almost certain to pass;
and we are in favor of success.
Men who succeed in business help
others along. Men who fail in bu-
siness drag others down with them.
Besides, when a man is in favor of
forming a new parish, it is a hope
full sign; it shows he is getting out
of the sloughs of the old fogy De-
mOeracy.

there is any relation between the
