EEDDISG. AND EVERYTHING HAPPY.
From the Kansas City Bulletin Aur7l
a romantic marriage took place at the Garno
EoUse, Nyandotte City, on Saturday last. The
circumstances are these:-A Miss Moshier,
Ev1rg IN Freeport, Stevenson county. Illinois,
Seeaine engaged to young man named Morri-
son, OF the same place. Business being dull
there IN l.65, the time Our story commences, he
concluded TO try his fortunes in California He
ctpaIted, promising to write regularly, and
either come or send for her a. soon as for
tune smiled upon him. Two weary years rolled
d, and she received letters from him,
and rO'hiDg was heard by his or her friends OF his
whereabouts. A report about this time was cir
culatec by young man named Shipman, post
master Of ETeepcrt. that Morrison was married.
Although hardly credited by Miss Moshier, still
bis lOng silence, together with the report or his
marriage made her come 70 the conclusion that
she was forgotten. Shipman now became very
aSSiGi1IS in bis attentions 10 her, and after a
short cOurf-hip, asked her 20 become his wife.
She. srULE " IN the treatment OF her first love-
consented, and they were married, and con-
Guided @ make their home ont West, reno wing

vert or smoothly for a time, but in an IN guard
cd mo II ler husband told her he bad inter
ceFfeC Morrison letters to her, and that he had
written repeatedly, but a. soon a. they came into
LIS hands they were DESTROYED. Instead Of for
elvtH5s-. As he expected. she uPbrailed him for
Dis uerEGy, and in short led him such life
That lie deserted her. After time she COM
mence1 acton for a divorce, which
granted on The grounds OF abandonment
She still remained in Kansas City, doing the
pest she could 70 obtain = livelihood. Morrison,
after waiting two years and hearing nothing
from the object OF his affections, grew restless

TiagC. ou bearing this he Immediately packed
NJ, with the intention OF returning home tn as
certain the truth OF the report On his way
home he determined 10 stop at Kansas City, and

met was his long lost love. Mutual explana-
tons took place, AMI she being free again a
speedy marriage took place before Justice New

after seven years two loving hearts became one.

ought not, to be abated in the least; the
features that effect the safety and purity
OF the ballot after it has been cast, will
be, and ought to be, made as perfect as
human legislation can effect that object
Beyond this the Legislature can not go.
Disorders will occur, and no law can stop
them; frauds will be effected, and no law
has ever yet been invented that could
prevent them. These are evils that are
coterminous with human nature, and the
committee only shows its lack OF
sense or its want of honesty
when it pretends that the measures
which it has devised will insure perfectly
peaceful and honest election throughout
the State We doubt very much whether
it wants one either; for since the Repub-
lican party is in the majority, until it
indorses the Republican programme, the
presumption will arise that it is seeking
success that it does not deserve, and that
its only hcpe Of winning victory is by
terrorizing over the majority with mass
meetings and threats OF violence. And the
best answer we can make to this attempt IS
to declare that the Legislature will not be
frightened from its duty, and that the Re
publican party is competent to meet this
rebellious outbreak whenever the COM
mittee retreats from the field of reason
and enters upon that of force and disorder.

STATE I.rcrNsEs..

We publish. letter in another column
from a prominent Republican, upon the
subject of unequal impositions tor
licenses. We agree in the main with the
writer, but are aware that his argument
should be addressed to a constitutional
convention rather than the General AS
sembly. The constitution imperatively
requires uniformity in the license law,
that is to say, the price of the privilege to
pursue any trade, profession Or calling
must be the same to all persons, regard
less of the amount of business done. The
Supreme Court has passed upon this ques-
ton, and set aside law because it estab-
lished different prices for persons pursuing
the same vocation. The policy OF i'm
posing tax on a man by way Of license
for doing any kind of work or carrying on
any business that is not deemed immoral
is, in our judgment, respugnant to the
usages Of a free people, or to what should
be such usages; but if license law be in
sisted upon, then it must conform to the
constitution, or it can not be enforced.
AS our correspondent intimates, perhaps
it would be advisable to have 10 license
law under such circumstances.

PREPARING TO ATTEND TIE MASS
MEETING.

The attention of the members of the Re
publican parish committee is called to the
notice of. meeting of that body, to take
place tonight in the Senate Chamber.
The committee will be asked to consider
important business. We learn that per-
mission will be asked for in behalf of the
ward clubs to assemble in mass meeting at
Lafayette square on Saturday night, for
the purpose Of taking part i'll the proceed
ings of the meeting already called by the
Committee of Fitty-one. We hope the
parish committee will authorize this call.
1t is expected that a report will be read to
the people by the committee. embracing
matters Of special Importance to all the
voters and It is proper that they should
be present to hear 1t. and have a voice in
either approving or rejecting it. And as
the people have been called upon to as
semble, We hope there will be a general
response to the call

THE STATE HOUSE

There was 4 running debate yesterday IN
which Senators Blackman. Campbell
Pinchback. Ingraham and others took part.
The discussions were rather more than ami
mated at times; they frequently burned
with passion that is cut of place in the
Senate Chamber. Senator Blackman is re-
ported to have indnlged in threatening
language toward somebody, if the people
OF this State ditfnot get fair election ne xt
fall. He/was speaking Of the present cleo
ton law, and WAS endcovoring to show the
necessity for its repeal or modification. He
seemed to have forgotten that the present
election law was enacted to help protect
and secure to the people of Louisiana, with
out distinction OF race, color, or previous
condition, the civil and political rights con-
ferred upon them by the government of the
United States.
In 1868 the Republican people Of this
State were denied these rights by that por-
ton of the people Of Louisiana known as
Democrats. The State had gone Repub-
lican by very large majority few months
before the Presidential election in 1868, but
in that election the. State went Democratic
because there was no law to protect Repub-
licans in the exercise of their rights a the
ballot box. The bad conduct of the Demo
cratic party in denying a fair expression Of
the people of this State in the Presidential
election Of 1868 caused the necessity for the

NEARLY TWO-THIRDS OF THEM NOT
VOTERS,

We have been at some pains to examine
the records to ascertain how many of the
celebrated Committee of Fifty-one are
voters. We were prepared to find that at
least one-half of them belonged to that
class of respectable citizens who habitlally
shirk their duties at the polls, but did not
expect to find thirty-three OF them in 50
small a body as that Of our self-styled
Legislature. But such is the case. Out
of the tifty-one we can find only eighteen
on the registration books. The following
gentlemen are duly registered, and, as We
hope, attend to the duty Of voting ut every
election:
George A. Fosdick, J. E. Austin. J. Bowl
ing. j. A. Blatfer. X! Clague, Charles Gin
ton, Edward Conery, Charles Z. Fenner.

MAKING FAIRGROUNDS OF THE STREETS.

While We, IN common with the whole
community, deeply deplore such an acci-
dent as happened to the little girl on
TcLoupitoulas street, we fully agree with
the Tines that the parents or guardians
are more to be blamed than the drivers of
cars and other vehicles. L is not at all
times possible to stop team in season to
avoid a collision, even by careful drivers,
and the surest way to prevent fatal acct
dents to children is to take care that they
do not make Fairgrounds Of the public
streets. The following remarks Of the
Times are judicious and timely:
We think the grand inquest of the parish
are altogether too sensational in thor re-
port concerning the death of little Mary
Burke, aged two years and three months.
killed by street railroad car. A child OF
that age has no business to be playing on "A
railway track. and those having charge of
such children are -nuch more responsible
for the murder of the innocents than the
drivers of cars and carriages. whose wheels
may crush them. Little Mary Burke, or
little Mary anybody else is not usually per-
mitted to wander about upon the streets:
if she is thus permitted, and fatal accl
dent ensues, her parents or guardians are
parties to be censured and punished No
driver OF car will wilfully drive over a
child. and no driver has a right to expect
that an infant, of the tender age Of Mary
Burke, would be found wandering about
without guide or nurse. Let the RESPONSE
biity for such honicides be placed on the
proper shoulders.

They found out how to do one thing in
Paris. during the siege, and that was to
make artificial milk. The following is the
recipe: Dissolve one and half ounces Of
sugar in a quart of water; add an ounce OF
dry albumen and from fifteen to thirty
grains of soda, and then make an emulsion
of the whole with from one and halt to
two ounces of olive oil. Gelatine may De
substituted for albumen. Slaughterhouse
fat was used in Paris for the olive Oil. IL
is said that one firm in Paris made daily
$4,000 gallons of this sweet mixture. IL is
not probable that our milkmep will try the
experiment the stuff would be found ont

Davidson fountain in Cincinnati, before the
last fall of SCOT, writes home: The water,
falling in thousand globes on every side
. of the fountain, was as pearls dropped from
angelic fingers, and the splashing in the
basin sounded like the silvery notes OF
distant school girls at play. The figures,
as they stood there, almost nude, with

chin, looked like frozen corpses, stark still

The report of the Committee OF Fifty
one, just published, states the expendi-
ture for printing during the year 1871 to
have amounted to S16,929 OF, which is
deemed suggestive of extravagance. We
find by the Controllers report of 1867, that
for the six months ending June 80 OF that
year, the city paid for printing sl7,397 10.
Thus in half the time nearly one thousand
dollars more was paid for the same item.
We might regard this indicative of extrava-
cance, but for the fact that the Times was
then the city printer, while now it Is the
REPUBLICAN. There is difference in the
proprietorship of the OK.
