The TAX SALES.-The long list
of tax sales is Il bad exhibit for our
parish, but III some cases it is
political opposition that has caus
ed delinquency. Poverty too has
had much to do with it. Many of
our farmers are in distress, and
have been for some time; but We
believe most would pay their taxes
but for the great PRESENT burden.
La times so peculiar a good gov
ernment would not press matters
to the bitter end. 'Tis no small
thing for man to lose his hOme.
We fear too, that many of our
people misunderstood the matter.
The land passes from the debtors
possession as soon as the Tax Col
lector records the seizure by the
State. If any man wishes to save
his property he had better know
all about the matter before it is
too Iate.-[Sparta Times.

by boiling the maize, and then
rubbing it into fine paste on a lava
stand called "metate." When

Official PoIiteneSs.

POliteneSS adorneS the character
of any man. 1t costs nothing to
practice it, and yet, free as il is.
many persons refuse to possess it
1t should be the pleasure of every
one to treat with common courtesy
those who have personal or bu~i
ness relations with them. II
should be exacted from our public
officials, as one of the duties of
official life. A rude official should
be driven from Office. Insulting
language to well-be-haved Stran-
ger who has business with pub
lie official, should be good grounds
for declaring the office vacant. 1t
is a decided pleasure to do bust
ness with a polite official. Sue
cessful or otherwise in what you
desire, you leave the Office with
good opinion Of the man. But to
enter the presence Of some public
officers is like entering the den OF
some wild animal; you are on the
guard continually, and fear that
the harsh words and gathering
frOwn may be followed by an OH
cial CIDER to tear you to pieces.
You gco out as soon as possible,
and nothing bat necessity can in
duce You to return. If you have
collected an honest claim you have
been made TO feel you have plum
dered the Treasury; if you have
protested against some official act,
or submitted objections to certain
decisions, you are in doubt wheth-
er you have performed the duty of
an American citizen or encrolched
upon the rights of some august
monarch.
Public officials should under,
stand that they are the servants
of the people. Every taxpayer
helps pay their salaries, and they
have the right to demand polite
treatment at all times. Too many
officers forget the appointing pow
er. They act as if they were in for
life, and had the right to crack the
whip ever their SubOrdinateS aud
over the beads of all who came IN
contact with them. The practice
should be stopped; the people
should demand courtesy from
their servants, and if they fail to
receive it, should drive the offend
er from Office and put men who
can practice the common civilities
of life The Republic.

E.migration.
From the Mobile Register

From the Mobile Register.
The persistent hdrping Of some
of our public men and papers
about the "bringing in" of emf
grants, seem TO awake no other
echo but that of their own wall
ingS, and should by this time have
taught them that their paper
plans and lamentations will not
increase the population one soil
tary soul in century.
immigration is like water. 1t
seeks its level and spreads, where
most unexpected, over those re-
giGns which, by the great laws of
population, offer them the greatest
attractions, being those principal
ly resulting from similarity of
race, country and climate.
The Register has already elab-
Orately discussed this important
question, and the logic of its reas-
OningS has been demonstrated by
facts, past and present which
nothing so far indicates TO he less
applicable to the future. 1t is
not population we lack, and I'M
less we expect like the Rip Van
Wrinkles of the past-war times, to
see white foreigners quickly step
into the shoes of our former
salyes, we can easily afford to
dispense with them until, at least,
such a time as Onr own people,
the youth of our OvercrOwded
cities shall have mantully accept
ed the situation, and sought in
the settlement of our rich fields
the honorable means of support
which agricultur never refuses to
her devOtees-
We never shall invoke legisIa-
tive aid to import emigrants so
long as we will see our streets,
our wharves, our shores covered
with an idle populations eagerly
watching the slightest OppOrtuDi-
ty to catch a poorly paying, TEN
pOrary employment, whether that
population he white or black, and
we deem it the first duty of the
State and the community, not to
tell thcm-"GO West" but to
help each citizen within his limit
cd means, and the State by libeT-
al endOwmentS, the surplus pOpu-
lation of our cities, towns and
villages, to seek active life and
prosperity on our fertile waste
lands.
