SOCIAL EQUALITY.-Candidates are
the most social fellows in the world.
If they were not, they would not put
themselves where some Of them did, at
the coIored Baptist fair, last Thursday
night. The house was so crowded, that
no one could sit, down, and standing,
each individual had four others in the
closest juxtapositiOn, touching front
and rear and each side. The weather
was not. cool either, judging from our
own sensations and the painting done
by the others. We are small and thin
and were lightly clad, and did not suffer
much but we really pitied the fat ones,
especially the fat candidates, for they
had work to do.
Being a newspaper man, we felt al
liberty to push about and see and hear
all we could. We saw cur Independent
candidate for clerk there with his best
smiles on if District Attorney Huds-
| peth was there we did not see him, but
heard that he was no candidate fol-
District Judge was there !; our white
Democratic candidate for State Sena-
tor and our colored Republican candi-
date for the same office, seemed to be
on the best of terms. Tom Anderson
our Independent candidate for the same
office, was not there !; but somehow o
other, when the blasted black niggers
were talked to about voting for the
other two, they would " hurrah for An.
derson !" And a bystander tells us thai
when our Democratic candidate fol
Sheriff asked a lot of them to fill III
and drink to some candidate, they die
fill up, and one old niger said, til
glasses with him, boys; tip glasses viii
him and they did tip glasses, but thu
'cussed' niggers drank " Here's Il
Mr.. Egbert Hayes, the next Sheriff o
st. Landry!"
This was a big crowd, and an Ander
son and Hayes one to boot, though the.
were not there to eleetioneer. Niger

corning the magnificent assortment of
goods said to have been received. We
were met by the polite and courteous
proprietor who showed us through his
large establishment.
The building, which is the largest in
town, contains four large apartments.
In the first we saw, ranged upon the
shelves, every imaginable description of
dry goods; from calico at ten cents to
silks ut ten dollars Il yard. Every spe-
cies of dry goods for ladies wear, from
a Dolly Warden hat to a Dolly Warden
gaiter, met Il eyes at every turn. Ar
ticleS of luxury. articles of every day
necessity, and in fact everything that
the heart could wish or the body require
was there before us. The second de
partmentiSde vOtedtO groceries, in which
barrels of flour, sugar, pork, whiskcy,

space in the room.
We then mounted the large and hand

The origin Of the term foolscap -
has doubtless puzzled many writer's who
use the paper known by that name, and
yet, as in many similar cases, it took its
name from a very simple circumstance.
Charles ], of England, granted nu-
merous monopolies for the support of
the Government. Among others was
the manufacture of paper. The water
mark of the finest sort was the royal
arms of England. The consumption OF
this article was great, and large for
tunes were made by those who pur-
chased the exclusive right to vend it.
This, among monopolies, was set
aside by the Parliament that brought
Charles / to the scatfpld ; and by way
of showing their contempt for the
king they ordered the royal arms to be
taken from the paper, and. a fool with
his cap and bells to be substituted. II
is now 200 years since the fOOlscap was
taken from the paper, but still the pa
per of the size which the Rump Parfia-
ment ordered for their journals bear
the name of the water-mark placed
there as an indignity to Charles.

The old Democracy is evidently not
pleased with the Fusion ticket. For
them there are homogeneous elements
on it, and they don't see what Access
siOns of strength or popularity they ac-
quire 10y sacrificing the time-hOnored
doctrines of Democracy. Its quite true
that there would be infinitely more
honor " in the breach than in the OBJ
servance " of these exclusive ideas, but
they don't see it in that light and we
wouldn't be much surprised at the sac
rifce of the very little leaven of Libe-
ralism which Messrs. Sheridan and
Armstead represented !; but we would
be sorry to sec it, because it would be
an indication of a return to the old lines
of their party, and be the signal for a
return also to party antagonisms, and
resentments, which really the Liberal
idea, propositions, and policy set out to
annihilate. But the idea is in advance
of the bulk of the Democratic party, and
they only adopt a theory and a name
for the purpose of securing an ascen-
dency they could not otherwise obtain.
But this stopping to conquer wont

THE CRISP TRoUPE-This popular
Troupe gave their last exhibition in our
town Mast Saturday night, and ON Sun
day morning took their departure to fill
engagements to play in the towns of
Vermillion, New Iberia and Franklin,
They, each and every member of the
Troupe, left behind them, in our little
town, many warm friends, and hosts of
admirers. 1t is but seldom our little
town is awakened from the lethargy
which reigns in our midst, to welcome
such an awakeninga as was caused by the
appearance OF Capt. Crisp and his corps
of actors. We have been revealing for
a week in their charming understanding
performances. Politics has been for

pOmene and ITALIA, and TerpsichOre,
have reigned supreme. 1t was with re-

them depart. Regret to see depart from
us those whose every object seems to

ergy to promote the prosperity of, not
only our religious institutions but every
other in our little town needing assist

courtly Manager that his aid was needed

which he could give to render such as

when there no longer remained the

of paste-board called a "ticket." II is
the only satisfaction we had in seeing
them depart.

To the Editor of the Opelousas Jour
malt was reported to the Republican
Parish committee Of st. Landry that a
meeting of the Republicans of Mallet
Woods in st. Landry parish, would take
place on Thursday, 10th Sept, 1872. 1t
was decided amongst the leading Re
publicans that this meeting should be
addressed by all parties-it was freely
circulated in this vicinity. A party COM

Sis. L. D. Estilettc, A. Lastrapes and
c. c. DusOn, regular Democratic nomi-
nees, and Mr.. H. Hays, independet can-
didate for Recorder, were present. On
consultation, it was decided to invite
Mr.. Z. d. Estilette to address the meet
ing i'll French the invitation he kindly
accepted, and made a speech that the
Republicans of st. Landry will always
be pleased to listen to, making Il strong
appeal against prejudice; and his adj
vice was that the people should be al
lowed to vote without fear or mOlesta-
ton, saying that the paramount duty at
present, was to redeem the State from
the hands OF corrupt Legislators, follow
ed 10y Mr.. D. P. G.. Hill, in his usual elO-

terms, the election Of Grant and Wilson,

We understand that at o caucus held
here not long since, by the unterritied,
they decided to sacrifice Nh. Yves

and that this colored man was informed
of the fact, or, may be, he took part in
the caucus care informed also, that,
subsequent TO this caucus, this same col

of his colored friends, lethistongue slip

"old .D'Avy for Recorder Coming
events cast their shadows before" and
these two circumstances taken together
may help to explain, to some extent, the
action of the convention last Saturday,
in regard to the Recorders Office. Not
that the mass of the members of the
convention knew anything ahoutit; but.
MS the Coaaier said of Warmoth, when
the principal wire-workers there pulled
on them everything moved. We can
generally see into what has happen
cd, unless we are behind the scenes and
help pull the wires, better than we can
into things that have not happened; and
the 0peloNsas complexion OF the ticket
would make it clear to any mind, except
one far dulIer than Peter Spyk's. as tt
where the wiTe-working was done.

The Bourbon Democrats of this parish
do not act in accordance with the senti-
ments expressed in Col. McEnery's La
fayette Square speech. They reject
fusion with the Liberals in the parish,
and seem determined to keep all the
offices in their own family or let the
Custom House Republicans have them.
This is q game the Liberals can play at
too. unless the want of large political
families stands in the way.

lie Mr.. Isaac II. LittelI has refused to
accept the nomination of the Bourbons,
that leaves their ticket without a single
representative north Of Opelousas. This
will put the whole of the northern part
of the parish against the ticket, which,
with the divisions, OBJECTIONS and oppo-
sitionin the southern part, fully justifies

party in this parish is not more than
eight hundred strong.
