The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-12-07

The Vice President has been misled
by his own sunny temper and his for
tunate political experience. Through
his twenty years. honorable career in
public life he has carefully avoided
wholesale invective, reckless person
alities," and men of all parties esteem
and respect him for it. But other
politicians have pursued the opposite
course and it seems to have agreed
with them. Campaigns have been
fought and won with no better ammu-
milton than slander. Calunny does
pay at the start; and though in the
long run it may iniure the party which
employs it, the retribution sometimes
is SO long in coming that the lesson
loses all its point. Shall we despair
then Of the publication Of politics I
No, for the defeat Of candidate is Of
small account in times like these, if
the principles which he represents are
to go Oh fourishing. There is SO much
common sense and love Of justice in
the American character that we may
trust the people sooner or later to
right whatever has been set wrong.
When the heat of the combat has
passed away, and journals which are
now railing at the Iribune's vio-
lencc have time to look after the nee
essary repairs in their own characters,
the sober second thought may bring
n reaction, and the cause may profit
from the slander thrown at the man
who was its standard bearer.

route were filed and in many places
densely packed by the city popula-
ton, and visitors from neighboring
cities gathered to pay the last tribute
Of respect to the late distinguished
citizen then being borne to the tomb.
The stores on Broadway were, for
The most part, closed. The windows
were crowded with the attaches and
female friends, earnest gazers on the
spectacle. Flags on private and pub
lie buildings and shipping in the har-
Dor, were displayed at half-mast, and
the fronts OF many stores and dwell
ings were heavily draped, where, in
many places, were the last utterances
of Mr.. Greeley: 1t is done" ~" / know
that my kedeemer liveth )" also, We
mourn our loss.n
All in The procession, as well as the
spectators, seemed to feel the solemni-
ty of the occasion, and from the APP
pearance of the hearse until it had
passed the people instinctively lowed
their heads. President Grant was
eagerly sought for, and his presence
always provoked Il suppressed buzz,
as if the people would like to applaud
but felt constrained i'll consequence of
the solemn event which had brought
them together. Arriving at Hamilton
ferry, the remains and many mourners
were conveyed to Brooklyn, where a
detachment Of police and large
throng of citizens received them and
accompanied the procession to Green
wood cemetery.

MORE ABOUT LAURA FA1R.-A dis
patch from San Francisco, dated No
vomber I'D, says: A sensation has
been caused here by the publication
of an alleged plot between Laura ID:
Fair and restaurant waiter named
Frank to poison Judge Dwinelle and
Alex. Campbell, COUNSEL for the peo-
pie. The waiter, Frank, who reveals
the plot says it was formed before
Mrs. Fairs second trial. He states
that the lady tried to induce him to
put poison in a decanter in Dwinelle's
house, or in the milk can at the door,
and this was intended to be done. A
woman went to the latter's house aid
told Mrs. Dwinelle not to leave the
milk can out. The matter was con-
cealed from the public, but has been
Investigated by Chief OF Police Crow
ley, Judge Dwinelle and all the coun-
Sci in the case. Some thought the
waiter insane. He had portrait OF
Dwincllc in his possession. Mrs. Fair
remains in the city. The people ale
much incensed at her proposition to
give public lectures.

INFLUENCE OF A NEwsPAPER.-A
school teacher who has been engaged
Il long time in the profession, and
witnessed the influence of newspapers
on the minds Of. a family of children,
writes rs follows: ~ have found it to
he the universal fact, without excep-
ton, that those scholars of both sexes,
and of all ages, who have access to
newspapers at home, when compared
with those who have not, are better
readers, excelling in pronunciation,
and consequently read more under
standingly. They are better spoilers
and read with more ease and accu-
racy. They obtain a practical knowl-
edge Of geography in almost half the
time it requires others, rs the news
paper has made them familiar with
the location Of the most important
places, nations, their governments
and doings Of the globe. They are
better gralnmarians; for having be-
come familiar with every variety Of
the newspaper, from the common
place advertisement to the finished
and classical Grafton Of the statesman,
they more readily comprehend the
meaning of his text, and consequently
analyze its construction with more ac-
curacy.'

We have seen in one Of the papers
an article upon The power Of Music" !"
in which the writer describes how,
when he would play his flute at the
parlor window, q toad would come
out from under the door step and ap-
pear to drink in the delicious melody
with an air of rapturous exultation.
This must be the man who lived
across the street from us. We have
noticed several times that toad
came cut and set Oh the step when
the man began to play the flute; but
we always thought it was for the pur-
pose of asccrtaining what sort of an
idiot it was making such II horrible
racket in peaceful neighborhood.
Sure enough, day before yesterday,
when playing began, out came the
toad, unable to stand it any longer.
He had another toad with him, and
they went aud got the lid OF an old
blacking-box, and fixed a string to it,
and packed into it their little store
of dead flies and things, and three or
four small toads, aud all their domestic
comforts, and hitched on to that
string and began to move down the
street in search of a new residence.
Yes, animals have an appreciation OF
music, and knowing that fact, we
have often wondered how this toad
stood it so close to that man with the
ute.-Er,

HOW TO GO WEST.

This is an inquiry which every one should
have trulhfully answered before he starts on
his Journey, and little care taken in exami-
nation of routes will in many cases save much
trouble, time and money.
The Burlington Route" has achieved a
splendid reputation in the last two years as
the leading Passenger Route TO the west.
Starting at Burlington it runs direct through
Southern Iowa TO Nebraska and Kansas, with
close connections to California and the Terri
tories; and passengers starting from Lancas-
ter, on their way westward cannot do better
than to take the c. B. & @. and Burlington
Route.
This line has published pamphlet called
"How to go West" which contains much val
liable information; large correct map of the
Great West, which can be obtained free Of
charge by addressing the General Passenger
