The ministrations and sympathies of our
people have been so completely monopoli-
zed by the 'sufferings of the sick and the
Institution of the poor, that there has been
hut little time to bewail the dead. Yet we
believe we may pause in the midst of the
solemn scenes that surround us, that we
may snatch moment from the busy carni-
val Of misery to express the deep regret of
this community lat the death of Rev.
Father Pierre. This pious priest, kindly
and most excellent man, was seized of the
fever Saturday evening, and died Tuesday
evening. From the beginning of the cpl
demic to the moment he Fas stricken
down, he was constantly Engaged in visit
ing the sick and dying. In these holy
ministrations he knew no .sects and no Or
ders of society, but was found at the bed
side.of jew and Gentle, rich and poor.
Those who trusted in the religion of Christ
and walked in its light, and those whose
souls were darkened by crime the lady
and the courtesan, the good and the bad,
when suffering with the scourge and smit-
ten with death, fonnd Father Pierre beside
them, smoothing their pillows with wo-
manly tenderness, and corsoling them
with words of hope.
We believe that the voices of this peo-
pic, regardless of sect or race, will join In
one common expression of regret at the
aoss of the good priest, and that amongst
- il is the universal opinion that the
Christian religion has lost worthy minis
ter, poor humanity a true friend and
Shreveport valued and useful citizen.
When the sad era, in the midst of which
". now are, shall have passed away, and
we have more leisure to devote to the mer
ITS of the dead, and more time to indulge
onr sympathics and tears, We trust that
some worthirr pen than our own will do
the life of Father Pierre that high Justice
IL 80 richly nlerits.--[ Shreveport Times.

The Right view.

When we End Democratic papers taking
the couecyyiew Of the present limited IL
nancial troubles in this country, we are
pleased e. give them credit for IL. The
following rensible article is taken from the
st. Louis Rspublican "a Democratic paper),
of October a. - -,
What ground exists for alarmi Why
should people tremble because some specu-
lstors' bubbles have bursti This country
has Immense resources which transient
.bloekades of commerce can not affect. The
most cautiousestimates of the present years
cotton production place the yieldfet 3,00O-
900 bales, which; at q very moderate price,
is equivalent to SIS, 900 900 i'm bullion. Here,
then, VIE have an article that must be sold,
but only to those who are compelled to
buy. The surplus of the, wheat crop, which
will be required to meet the transatlantic
900 bushels, worth in. Europe at least $780,
5000 in specie. Besides these great sta
pie productions, which can be sent abroad,
and which consumers in Europe must have,
there Is an immetse exportable balance of
corn, oats, rye, petroleum, hog products, to-
bacco, etc.
Now. if the extravagant tastes Of the
people could be curbed just for one year, 70
as to talxe some two hundred million dol
lars worth less silks, sstins, ribbons, jew
elry, and other articles of luxury, the trade
balance could easily. lie turned in favor of
this country, and instead ofa stringency
we might yet live TO Gee plethora of mon
ey. The figures given above chow how inn
possible is permane, t financial disorder.
The vast recuperative powers of this coun-
try would very soon effect complete fnan-
cial and commercial revolution as regards
the methods of intercourse, if that were ne
cessary, to relieve the people. All changes
in the course of tl1ngs are attended by
moreor less violence in social order. We
are just passing through change, politi-
cal, social and financial, and, as a necessa-
~ consequence, there is some friction. But

pie will calm themselves and take a reason
