FRANK STANwooD, Captain 3d. Cavalry, U. $. A.

CAPTAIN GEORGE HoGE, of the Twelfth Infantry, was recently retired from the army because of incapacity for active service, and the order de- clares "said incapacity does not re- suit from long and faithful service, nor from wounds or injury received in the line of duty, nor from sickness or exposure therein, nor from any incl dent of service"
 Possibly whisky incapacitated Hoge, and if so, he should not have gone out of the army without some company.

Thou should'st never read the copy

knock thee down.
Never inquire thou of the editor for
the news, for behold it is his business
at the appointed time to give it to thee
without asking.

Writing for Newspapers.

Some people estimate the ability of
a newspaper and the talent of its edi-
tor by the quantity of original mat
ter which it contains The Literary
Journal truthfully says: 1t is COM
paratively an easy task for 9 frothy
writer to pour out daily coldms OF
words-wOrds upon any and all sub
iects. His ideas may flow in one weak,
washy, everlasting flood, and his com
mand of language may enable him to
string them together like punches OF
onioiis, and yet his paper may be Q
meagre and poor concern. Indeed,
the mere writing part of editing pa
per is but small portion of the work.
The cafe, the time employed in select
ing, is far more important, and the
fact of good editor is better shown
by his selections than anything else ;
and that we all know is halt the bat
tie. But, as we have said, an editor
ought TO be estimated and his labOrs
understood and appreciated by the
general conduct of his paper-its tone
its temper--its uniform. consistent
course-its aims-its IIanliness-its
dlgnity-its propriety. To preserve
these as they should be preserved is
enough to occcny fully the time and
attention of any man. If to this be
added the general supervision or the
newspaper establishment, which most
editors have to encounter, the wonder
is how they can find lime to write al
all.

The New Lieut.. Governor.

Under this caption the st: James
Seatinet, Under the editorship of MIR.
Geo. Il. Bovee, treats of the new Lieu
tenant Governor. He does this in
style and manner in such perfect ac-
cord we presume with his real senti-
ments that we would hate to garble
his article, and therefore offer it in its
entirely to our readers Il Louisidnian.
p. B. s. Pinchback, the new Lieut..
Governor of the State of Louisiana, Is
so well known to most of our readers,
that any comments upon him that we
may make will seem almost entirely
unnecessary. of his early history we
know nothing. He was elected to the
State Senate on the regular Republi-
can ticket i'm 1865; and since that time
has been a prominent and influential
member of that body. He is ready
debater, an easy aud graceful speaker,
courteous and gentlemaply in his. man
ners, perhaps little vain but always
pleasing and agreeable, manly and in
dependent.
He is well versed in parliamentary
tactics, and will as President OF the
Senate, preside over the deliberations
of that body with dignity and Impair
tiality adding new laurels to those al
ready won; rejecting credit upon the
Senate and the Republican party, OF
which he is one of the ablest represen-
tatives. We have never been num-
bered among the admirers of Senator,
Pinchback, nor do we believe that We
have ever been looked upon as bis en-
envy. We belong to one branch of the
Republican party, while the Lieut..
Governor is closely allied with the
other, and is undoubtedly the ablest
representative of his race among them.
We welcome for q second time a
cOlored man as the second highest
officer of the State; hoping, trusting
and believing that the "vacant chair
so ably filed by his predecessor will
never be disgraced by him who has
been chosen by the yoive OF the Sen
ate as its future occupant. Elected
by men belonging to his own party
dlOuc tuOfouSu S,oiuS iNpuShooi
himself; fearless and OutspOken sup
porter of General Grant for the next
President, we firmly believe that he
can do more, to unite the discOrdant
elements of our party, than it is the
power of any ether man in the Senate
to accomplish. Much will depend
however, upon the course he pursues
If conciliatOry, and disposed to look
to the future welfare of the party and
State, we predict for him, brilliant
future. If revengeful and inclined Il
distrust good men who have differed
from him, as to the best policy to bt
pursued to advance the interest of tl'
party and people, his success will et
doubtful and his usefulness greatly i'm
paired.
One thing we feel assured of Lieu
tenant Governor Pinchback will neve
be the willing tool of any policician, o
set of politicians. Although the choic'
of the Governor for the position h
now holds, he has too much manheOs
to be used as plant instrument, ant
we hope his Excellency will not ex
pect from dim SO great sacrifice
his individuality.

One day when came home fatigued,
Ind fSlt inclined to grumble,
because my life was one of tell,
because my lot was humble,
l said to Kate, my darling wife,
In wsam my whole life's bliss is,
What have you got for dinner, Kate!'
"Vhy. bread and cheese and kisses"
Though warm and tired my heart leaped up
As those plain words she uttered,
WHY should envy those whose bread
Than mines more thickly butteredf
/ said, "we1l have dessert at once
.What's that ~ she asked. "why, this is,
kissed her. All, what sweeter meal
Than bread and cheese and kisses.
Iruzed at her with pure delight;
She nodded and smiled gai!y;
said, "My love, on such meal
I'd dine with pleasure daily,
When but think of you, dear girl,
pity those fine misses,
Who turn their noses up and pout
At bread and cheese and kisses.
And when look on your dear form,
And on your face SO homely,
And when look on your dear eyes,
And on your dress so comeiy;
And when hold you in my arms,
laugh Mt Fortunes misses,
Pm blest in you, content with you,,
On bread and cheese and kisses"
