FROM LAFOURCHB PARISH.

-,
The RepubIIeans United = Delegates In
I'm National Plafform.
From our Regular Correspondent
At regular meeting of the parish execu.
April IL, for the purpose of electing dele
gates to the Republican State convention,
the following named gentlemen were unani-
mously elected to represent LafOurche par
ish as her accredited delegates: William
Murren Oscar Crosier and John T. Hart
man.
And whereas, there existed another com
mittee styling itself the State Committee, >
therefore, the committee elected three dele
gates to attend the Packard convention (so
called)A as follOws: A, j. Brooks, Nelson
Taylor, Edward Long.
The following il the substance of the reso-
buttons which were adopted:
WHEREAS, The Republican party of Lou
isiana Is essentially aunt for the great ma
tlOnal Republican party, but has been mis-
represented by factionists, boilers and I'M
blushing liars; and
Whereas, The parish of Lafourche take
NO stock in divisions, new parties, third
parties, refOrmers or rebels; and
Whereas, The Republican administration
of Louisiana is far superior in respect to
CUuCdt1Oudl oOVAutoSOS, ClNA AlSuucS POoCO
and liberty to other States, late slavehOld-
ing and -.-....., 3.
Whereas, The Republican party of La
fourche can not afford to be divided, to
allow the Democracy the opportunity of
breaking up and destroying the schools; and
Whereas, The Democrats can not safely
be trusted with political power; therefore
ResOlued, That the Republican party of
Latourche parish will not be divided by
any party or faction.
Resolred, That the so-called Reformers
are Democratic allies, and that their agents,
d. H. Reese and - Kerr, of this parish,
be and are hereby denounced IS enemies of
Republican principles, and a. unworthy the
Res0lced, That the delegates selected to
attend the two conventions do so with a
view to harmOnizlng the party of the Re-
publicans of Louisiana, and for that pur-
pose they am authorized and instructed to
confer with members of other parishes and
return and report success to this committee.
Resolved, That we, as Republicans, know
ing NO safety outside the Republican party,
will abide by the decision Of the national
Republican party soon to assemble at Phila-
Resolred, That the Louisiana delegation
to the national convention be instructed to
use every endeavor to have the civil rights
bill plank of the national platform.
The entire meeting was harmonious, and
the party represented tall parts of the
parish. We have no use for Democratic
reformers in Lafeurche, and not q particle
of sympathy with the ambitious sore
headed tactionists who would sell their
party to tho Democracy and destroy the
unity of the party Of liberty.

A capital Joke. and all the more

A capital joke, and all the more palat-
able because it is true and can be vouched
for, took place few Sundays since at one of
the prominent Fourth street churches. 1t
seems that worthy deacon had been very
industrious in selling new church boook,
costing seventy-fve cents. At the service in
question: the minister, just before dismiss
ing the congregation, rose and said. "All
you who have children to baptize, will please
present them next Sabbath" The deacon
who, by the way, was little deaf, and hav-
ing an eye to selling the books, and suppos-
ing his pastor was referring to them, i'm
mcdiately jumped up and shouted. "All you
who haven't any, can get as many as you
want by calling on me, at serenty3fre cents
each. The preacher looked cross-eyed at
the brothers, the brothers looked at the
clergyman, the audience punched the audi
ence in the side, the bubble grew larger until
it burst into a loud gufaw. There was 10
benediction that morning worth speaking
of. The deacon, after he had found out his
mistake, changed his pew from the front of
the church to the third from the rear; and
though he connot hear the sermon, he is
with the thought that the young
ladies can't snicker at him.

MURDER IN a STREET CAR AT UTICA

A telegram from Utica Wednesday af.
ter noon to the Associated Press gives the
following account of the shooting of two
men, one fatally, in a street car in that
city
"Milton H. Thompson, of this city was
this afternoon shot throught the nose and
cheek, and Ii. Hall, coal dealer of
Odgesnburg, was shot in the head aud in
stantly killed by a woman giving the
name of McCarty, from Albano. The
woman McCarty got on street car some
where near the head of Genesee Street.
Thompson and Hall, who was relative.
got on the Car at Thompson's residence.
Some words passed between Mrs. Nc
Carly and Thompson, when the woman
drew revolver and shot at Thompson.
The ball passed through his face and
struck Hall in the heart. The latter
sprung from his seat and fell dead on the
bottom Of the car. Thompson wound is
not considered dangerous. The woman
is under arrest"
The Albany journal of Wednesday
evening makes the following explanations:
"This Mrs McCarty is the female ply
sician' of this city known as Mrs. Bur.
leigh, some of whose professional work
has given her considerable notericty with
IN a few months past. 1t seems that she
travels about under different names-gen
orally under Burleigh, but sometimes
Seymour, and as in Utica, McCarty.-
The police have telegraphed after her
general character, but have no other par
ticulars Of the shooting than has been
given above 1t seems there was a cause
for the quarrel with the man Thompson.
whom Mrs Burleish attempted to kill
Some three years ago he cntced her into
a stateroom on one Of our steamboats,
The result she claims was daughter,
now living, and she began to black mail
Thompson. Among other valuables she
obtaiued from him was house in Howard |
street. Having then refused to continue
his neiactons, she informed his family |
of what had transpired. Upon this
Thompson foreclosed the mortgage on the
Howard street house, and on last Monday
the woman became houseess She AT
once proceeded to Utica, and this murder
IS the result. The man she intended to

man was killed"
