How much more intelligent and fasci-
mating the majority Of young ladies
would be were they to give d little more
attention to newspaperreading Wedo
not mean the flash papers of the day
which are filed with matter which, if it
does no harm, can certainly do no good,
but to newspapers-those which make
US familiar with present character than
a fair acquaintance with passing events.
Every young lady should have an intel
ligent opinion ON the moral, political
and religious subjects OF the times, and
the best, and the only way to find this,
is to read good newspapers diligently.

New Orleans, Opelousas and Great West
ern Railroad.

ern hallfOad.
The Planters Banner says of the pro-
posed extension of this road:
Judge Boyce is in the city attending to
the interests of the railroad to be built be-
tween Berwick's Bay and Washington a
distance of one hundred miles.
The judge will stir up as much interest
as possible in the city to forward the enter
prise. and then see what can be done in the
parishes. He simply requests the police
jury of each parish to order an election
that the taxpayers of the parish may vote
for or against the papers; if for it, the ap-
measure fails. This relieves the police
jurors of all personal responsibility in the
matter, since, if the tax is sustained, it is
by the vote of those who pay the tax.
The parish bonds are to be payable in
twenty years. and the parish will be bene-
flied by the railroad twenty times the
amount of the bonds in that time.
A railroad that will enable the people of
Washington and OpelOusas to reach New
Orleans in eight hours will add many thou
sands to the population of these parishes in
few years, and millions to the value OF
the real estate
Mr.. Morgan has literally subscribed, as
stock, the road bed, which cost the old
company $3.50, 900 to build, and he put this,
and all the franchises of the road west of
Berwick's bay, in as stock at $270,0 900.
As soon as the cross ties are laid down,
and the bridges and culverts built, money
can be obtained to complete the road and
put it in running order, by first mortgage
bonds laid upon the road.
This great work once completed would
Justify the parishes in donating to the road
what is merely asked as loan for twenty
years
We trust the police jurors will permit
the taxpayers to vote on the proposition of
Judge Boyce, president of the company.
