The World asserts that in Sc
duetion, breach of promise,
railway accident, and other
snch emotional suits, juries are
proverbially inclined to favor
the alleged victim. The World
might have truthfully added
that one talented liar is worth
a dozen honest witnesses In a
case before an average jury,
and that the present jury sys-
TEN ought to be abolished
throughout the country before
another case is allowed to come
To trial.

BELLEVUE, La,
Saturday Morning, May 10, 1872.

We do not appreciate the
"learned eloquence" Of the po-
li-ical brawlers of this State
who are SO anxious and loud
mouthed in behalf Of the Ma
tional Democracy making way
for Liberalism, yet clin9ing
with an undying devotion to
State and parochial nominal
tions-or rather, Offices for
themselves and pets We can't
see where the patriotism and
devotion TO country and State
come in. Dear hungry fel-
lows, the dodge is "too thin !"
If, for the good of the country,
the Democracy must die,nation-
ally, and such patriots and
statesmen as Black, Hancock,
Voorhees,, Pendleton, Seymour,
Hendricks, Adams and others,
are required to abandon the
field and renonnce their leader
ship and opportunity for pre-
ferment, it is certainly proper
that the smaller craft should
keep near shore. If we are
too weak to make a National
venture, in the name Of candor,
what chance for success has
poor oppressed Louisiana. with
Warmoth's ballOt-box suffers
on one side, and Grants bayo-
nets on the other. From the
standpoint of principle, there is
nothing that can redeem our
State save tue united and earn
est moral support of a great
and powerful National Demo-
cratic organization. Really.
these wishy-washy leaders of
Democracy floor themselves.
Without a National ticket, a
State ticket here would prove a
farce. The tail, without the head,
could live only till shutdown.
And, in that event, what pow
er and right would these fierce
leaders have to bully and brow
beat the limid into silence and
acquiescence? We can stand
our share of this political ter
rorism natural to our dominant
leaders, when "acting under
ORDERS" but without that au-
thority, we are independent
enough to "rise" to ask for the
warrants" of these petty sar-
geants and corporals-the
would-be tyrants OF the occa-
sion.
In our opinion, there should
be no Democratic nominations
in this State until it has been
decided at Baltimore whether
We have a Democratic party
And VT hope the Louisiana De
mocracy will not be SO unwise
as to attempt to carry this
State without coalition, after
our National organization has
sounded the retreat.

3rd. l am atmuch loss, to
say how, your Department can
most efectualiy promote the
cotton planting interest-cer-
tainly great good can aid viii

pursued-in collecting and
disseminating, through that
department, the ''useful infor-
nation" that you must acquire
from the intelligent planters
Of the South.
4th. Unjust say that, in my
opinion, deterioration is most
manifest from the defective
staple-which is mainly caus-
ed by the planting Of
the immature seed of the
previous year, using The seed
Of the cotton that had rot ma
tured but had been partially
forced to open by the frost.

all the varieties Of cotton, in
this section, are traceable
either directly or Indirectly
to the PettigGlf cotton.
9th. Unfortunately, it is not
a common practice to select
the best bolls for seed. If this
practice obtained gene rally, a
betterstyle and a greater yield
than has ever been Produced,
would be attained. 1t is owing
partly to this practice, that we
have so many varieties OF
cotton, such as the Dickson,
Boyd, Peeler, HWlong, &C.,
&c. | have no doubt, but the
grandest results might be fore
Ell to follow the putting the
lands in the highest state of
cultivation-giving thorough
and perfect cultivation-then
gathering the most perfect
bolls for seed. No Other seed
to be planted, than those rails
ed as above.
9TH. There have been no
other efforts, known to me.

Peeler, Hurlong,' &C., &c, to
improve seed. Know of none

tries. The results, however OF
the efforts above referred to.
have been not only highly sat
isfactory, but gratifying in
the extreme. All Of which is
