in this manner:
We are confident that the fate of Georgia
and South Carolina is not reserved for this
state, and we give as q reason that our
leader is beloved by the entire party of the
State. His character has endeared him to
all ranks, and with our forces united, under
the leadership of Henry Clay Warmoth,
we nave no tears OF the State relapsing into
and Georgia.
If we had been so unfortunate "a to have
had the division Messrs. Casey, Lowell and
Packard worked so assiduously to procure.
we might indeed have felt ourselves on the
high road to political ruin. But as we have
conquered these domestic traitors, we NAV
as confidently expect . complete Republican
victory in 1872 under Henry CLAW Warmotb
as we may and must believe that history
repeats itself.

Our readers will remember that about
three years ago a batch of prisoners,
among whom one Homer Moreau, broke
our Jail and made their exist. Now, on
Thursday last, at about two o'clock in the
morning, Mr.. c. c. Dusson, the indefatiga-
BILE deputy of Sheriff Hayes, was knocking
at the door of certain house in Prairie
Ronde, in this parish, and by and by the
Moreau as his prisoner. The gentleman
was produced, and is now in Jail, where it
is probable he will remain until the next
session of the district court. Moreau is ac-
cused of larceny. 1t appears that he had
been living in the parish of Natchitoches,
where he succeeded in getting married into
respectable family, and that he had
brought his wife to.a visit to his own fam.
lily. And that's where he made the mistake.

Gentlemen:-It affords me great pleasure to
testify to the virtues of the Magnum Bonum
Fertilizer, as tested this spring at my country
residence, Nestlewood.
I tried it upon old grass, new. sod, flowers,
vegetables, &C., and in all cases with the most
marked success.
sowed lawn grass seed where the subsoil
was of hard clay, with only one inch of top
soil, and that poor, and gave it dressing Of
Magnum Bonum on April 10, 1870. By the
10th of May, the grass was two inches high,
and very thick and green. then sowed ground
plaster on it, and since have cut two crops, each
about eight inches high, and competent judges
declare it the most remarkable stand of grass,
for its age, they ever saw. can therefore say
that for grass lands, vegetables, &C., your Mag
mum Bonum surpasses any Fertilizer have ever
seen. Very truly, yours,
w. CoURTENAY.
