is certainly a grand feature-the hum of
machinery, the scene of mechanical activity,
and the regular order Ia which every part
of this grand department is conducted, at
tracts people from every part of the build
ing and exerts thrilling interest in its
varied characteristics. Machinery is here
from all parts of the United States, emEfac-
ing the latest Improvements and most use
full inventions which are exhibited now for
the first time. This grand array of mech
anical skill, active in its practical principle,
is a study well worthy the attention of
every manufacturer, machinist and capital
list in the South. Among the machinery
on exhibition we notice large entry from
Macon, Ga. Finley & Sons of that CITY,
have on exhibition one of their celebrated
ECLIPSE COTTON AND HAY PRESSES.
They claim that this press will pack twice
as fast as any other press manufactured for
Semi-weekly Louisianian., 1872-01-25

p% Mr.. Writ Skies and Miss
Olive Logan, two well known cele-
brities of our time were recently
married in New York. Their nup-
tials were distinguished by q pecu-
liarity that we will permit the New
York Weekly to tell and to compli-
ment in its own way. It says:
"Their wedding ceremony called
together large number of friends,
artists, literary men and women of
celebrity, and fashionable people.
These were invited after the ceremony
to table covered with delicacies, but
as the papers which published an ac-
count OF the occasion, state, "No
WINES Oh LdQUoRs WERE SERVED"
Again 1 say all honor to this noble
couple for that glorious example, that
brave and independent defiance of the
old custom of making a table groan
with vinous beverages, and the guests
grOan with a headache thereafter. A
marriage thus opening, with genius
linked in hand as it is in heart, cannot
but be happy"

@r Carter says he can't fight the
United States government. He
would do it short hand if he ina
gined he could make a point, or
break one. Having gone back on
his faith, his party, his cause, his
friend. To go back is the only role
he fills with grace and determine
ton:
The horrible outrages on the
peoples rights generated by the
collection of sham representatives,
sprung from the registration laws
as maggots breed in carrion, can
easily be conceived by any intelli-
gent person.
In language like this Carriers own
paper goes back on Carter. To be
called ga sham Representative" is
really too bad. We always knew
that when a man was down, his
friends turned upon him. But We
did not look for it in this quarter.
Never.

THE FAGS PLATFORM.

Suppose combatant declares his
intention of shooting his opponent
on sight, sallies out, meets him, sees
that he is well prepared, and then
backs out. Can this combatant,
then, pitch into his opponent and
damn him for defending his life?
Yet this is the platform Of the Fags.
They proclaim their intention of
subverting the State Government
by an armed mob and assemble to
make short work of it. But 10 |!
the State is well defended, and they
slide of. Then they vilify the
members of the Administration for
doing what they should in duty
bound. This is funny. What is
expected from a government which
they warned, that the whole town
is to shut up shops and go for it in
sections should quietly sit down
and let them do it ? What is a
Government, if it is not able to de-
fend itself when assailed ? Suppose
the Nation, when the rebels declar-
ed war. should have remained
listless, and thus invited the insur-
rectionists to take seats and be COM
Portable ? Would our own Nation
be worthy of respect ? The Fdgs
would have the State, when they
say that "not one stone of the
State House will be left upon an
other" to quietly,draw off and say
certainly gentlemen-tear it down
your heads level-destroy-|
smash up the State Government !"
The most ridiculous of assumptions
this is, That an Administration with
Executive and both branches of the
Legislature in working order shall
consent to be knocked into pi to
suit set of demagogues whose
only pretext lies in a minority.
This is the way things look.
