The Boys in Blue.

We are more than glad and re-
ioiced that the lamentations and
frightful prayers of the Radicals of
Rapides to Kellogg, Packard & Co.
have been needed and that United
States troops have been sent here.
We are pleased to bave decent and
respectable witnesses to our conduct,
to our patience, to our endurance of
wrongs heaped on us since 1868, and
to the decent, genteel and resolute
manner, that we intend to shake of
these infamies, these wrongs. Glad,
happy indeed, are our people that
good and faithful witnesses will be
present to youch for US as good, well
behaved and law abiding people.
And above all are we rejoiced to have
them bear witness to our triumph, our
glorious victory on next Monday.
We do not want better witnesses to
such victory than the boys in blue.
DEATH OF OUR OLDEST INHABITANT.-
We are panied to announce the death of
j. M. Sollibellas, Esq, at his residence
In this Parish, on Thursday the 24th
instant.
Mr.. Sollibellas was born in this Par
fish in July, 1856, and was, therefore, at
the time of his death in the s7th year of
his age. He had never resided outside
of the Parish of Rapides. At the time
of his death he was not only the: oldest
native, but the oldest inhabitant, of the
Parish. A few days ago he tottered in
to the Office of the Registrar and regis
tered with the remark that he wanted to
vote once more and aid in saving his be-
loved native State from ruin. Provi-
dence did not vouchsafe him the covet-
ed privilege. If Louisiana had been a
State In lSOS he could have voted for
Mr.. Madison at his first election. This
is the Seventeenth Presidential election
that has taken place since he became
Of age.
Mr.. Sollibellas was plain, self-made
man, who amassed quite handsome
fortune by his industry and economy.
He was kind and generous neighbor,
much respected by those who knew
him best.

nave now forced myself or my opinions

been already placed before it by my
friends. l know that every man must
have his record, and since my name
was forced before the people I am an
xious that my position should also be
known. / have sought no political Of
fee and desire none. Some of INV
friends who were delegates to the Libe-
raj Convention of the 18th inst, will
bear me out in the assertion that they
sought permission to place my name in

that Convention, and that l declined to
allow it to 60 before the Convention for
any Office. l do not know nor do par
ticularly care what would have been the

Influential Radicals will testify that two
months ago, when they proposed to take
me, as they did Judge John Kelso, for
their nominee, without single pledge
or promise of any kind or nature, for
this same Office, that positively and un-
equivocally refused to allow them to
put my name before their Convention
and now am declining the nomination
of the party to which belong. The
only inference l wish drawn from these
facts is that l am not VERY ANXIOUS to
be Parish Judge of Rapides.
Now, Mr.. Editor, without imposing
further on your patience, and having
placed myself where I desire to stand
before the people of Rapides, l thank
you for your kindness, and beg to as
