is Demorest's Monthly, replete

with the advent of May, for,
like the seasons, sports and
amusements change; neverthe-
less there are spare and stormy
times for indoor recreation, for
which there is nothing better
than the perusal of some good
periodical. The one to fill this
want is Demorest's Young

its treasures are extraordinary.

We are of the opinion that
DividSon having placed himself
without the pale of the Demo.
cratic party, by associating and
fraternizing with Warmoth and
his clique, should not have IN.
peared as a delegate and an
pearing, should have been ne

We think that if the parish
of Livingston desired to hs
represented in a Democratic.
Convention they should have
sent a Democrat to that body.
That, as stated by Mr.. Seaman.

had inculted themselves bv
sending such a delegate as

should not insult itself by ac-
cepting him.

Col. John Forsyth, of the
Mobile Register, attributes the
decentralization of the Democ-
racy to the fact that it is "afraid

So it appears in this case, with
our late Convention. We are
of those who propose to "prac-
tice what we preach" We ask
for square, open-feld fight,
or an unequivocal back down.
If our party is composed of
soldiers, let us meet orr enc

deserters, it is time our self
constituted generals should ac-
knowledge that they are only
bragartS and deceiverS, and do
not intend an honorable politi-
cal warfare. We are tired of
this double-dealing running
with-the-hare-and- holding with
rebounds policy. We have
"no AK to grind" and are will
ing to 60 under with our party,
provided it uncompromisingly
contends for its glorious princi-
pies, but we are sick of that err

the school house at that place,
at eleven o'clock of
the 1st instant. Found most |
Of the folks, young and old
already assembled. Prepared
my tablets and sharpened my
pencil for business. Mr.. Girls
would had laid down his die
tatorship for the occasion, and
only officiated as one Of the
masters Of ceremonies.
Proceedings began by a mis-
crafty abortive attempt on the
part of G. to get a speech out
of q sorrel haired man. This
man had light enough in his
countenance, but was as re-
served as Minerals glorious
bird. Doubtless he was reserv-
ing his efflulgence to illumi-
nate your columns. After this
failure we amused ourselves
for ten minutes or so in greet
ing neighbors and acquain-
tances, learning new faces and
chit chat. The day was clear
ana cool, good humor was
painted on every face, and
everything portended a joyful
time. AT length Col. Snide1
was mildly coerced into the
delivery of a speech that prov
ed short and good. Indeed
sbortness itself is a very good
quality in a speech for such al
occasion, as nothing mars fur
SO much as long sermonizlng
He made a few appropriate re
marks and concluded by some
stirring patriotic sentiments
: that called forth hearty ap
plause. Following the speech
came a song by the school girl:
with piano accompaniment
Then followed a neat speed
from Miss Skipworth to Miss
Glass, the May Queen elect
