to the defense i'll all tax suits brought
by the Kellogg officials of Caddo parish.
1t Will also be seen that Il lawyer can,
if he will, make himself, rs well as any
other citizen can, a party in opposition
to political frauds, accomplished though
they be, and can array himself in an
attitude of professional hostility to an
Usurping power.
We commend, most warmly, the de-
cided action OF the Shreveport lawyers
to the lawyers Of Monroe who were
actively engaged last Fall in the sup
port Of the Fusion cause, and especially
to those who wanted to condemn every
one who would not rush frantically to
the support of Horace Greeley and of Il
combination III this State OF all the
political elements opposed TO Grant and
Radicalisn. They led the advance
then, and we now call upon them as
leaders to stand like mon in their
chosen positions.

bilious, step forth to welcome him

Rain has fallen almost necessarily

There Is the best authority for sta
ting that the government Of Spain has
never, since the signing of the recent
protocol, expressed any inclination to
have it modified, and though some
alarm has been created by recent re-.
ports from Havana, there is not the
slightest apprehension expressed by
the executive branch Of the United
States government Of any trouble, and
nothing has occurred to diminish its
confidence In either the honest purpose
Or the ability Of the Spanish govern
ment to execute its engagements.
Whatever may have been suggested
heretofore as to the programme, it can
now be asserted that the Virginius
will be delivered to one of our naval
vessels within the next ten. days at a

Confirmation.

!. sEDrToR HERALD: Those Of our citi-
zens who did not visit the Synagogue
on Sunday last missed seeing one Of
the most solemn and impressive rites
in the Jewish religion. Our young
friend, Meyer Polaski, having attained
the age Of 13 years, is by the Jewish
law entitled to all therights Of an adult
in Israel, and was called to the law,
for the first time. He sang in his clear
young voice, and addressed very at
/ fecting speech to his parents and teach
J -ers. Every one present was In tears,
and Meyer almost broke into sobs
himself but restrained himself by an
effort. Owing to the inclemency Of
the weather, not one OF the invited
guestscould attend, althougha goodly
number were at the house Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Polaski, where they were invited
after the ceremony to partake OF the
good things provided for them. Two
elegant tables laden with every deli
cacy of the season were set for the
guests and the tables fairly groaned
under the poultry, cakes and every
thing one could wish for. At the table
some toasts were drank; and one par
tfcularly, given by Rev. MI. Edleman,
'sfThe unity ofour Christian and Jew
ish friends. AS we extend hearty well
come to our Christian friends here at
5onrfeasts, aud festivities, 30 we will
also hope to welcome them in our
Fathers home in Heaven, whittier we
all are striving to CO." The toast was
ably responded to, in most glowing
words, by his Honor Judge Y. Sepul-
veda, and most warmly applauded by
all present. A few words also by Pro-
fessor Kimball, speaking very highly
OF Meyer IS u youth and scholar; and
long speech by Mr.. Morris on reform,
andcthe present position held by the
Israelites Of the present day. Healths
were drunk to Mr.. and Mrs. p. the
young conformant, also to, the guests
present, and after sitting and SLIPPING
of the elegant wines and champagne
for q couple Of hours, the guests sepa-
rated. In the evening, many came,
who could not come in the day, and
spent very pleasant evening, not
breaking up until late hour. ]. M.

Answer 10 an Article In Sunday Morning
Herald.

f. IA
EDITORS HERALD 81 Perinlt me
through the columns Of your valuable
paper a word in reply to an article pub
fished in Sunday mornings HERALD.
Tt is there stated that refused ad-
mittance to the County Hospital of
one Tomasini, unless he would pay
me the sum Of $40. He says he was
poor. and could not pay the sum re-
quired, and for that reason was refused
admittance, and then appeals to the
public for sympathy, aid, information,
as cloak to injure my reputation.
(By way of parent hesis, permit me to
remark, do n0tAthink he wrote the
article).
The facts are these: Some time since,
said Tomassni came to my office to
consult me for disease from which
he was then suffering. I prescribed
for him. Heleft without SO much %
giving his name or thanking me for
my prescription. The next day he
came again, and SO on the third day.
then called on him for the sum IL $40
for my services, and told him for that
sum would continue his treatment
until he was relieved. He left, ,promis-
ing 10 bring the money the following
day. He came the following day ac-
cording to promise, but brought no
money: pleaded poverty, and said
/ should admit him to the Hospital:
that he had been robbed. of 500
worth of jewelry, 4 but admitted
that he had recovered $50 worth of it.
Seeing him comfortably clad, sporting
watch and chain, and wearing other
decent jewelry, as well as full-grown
six-shooter, i told him I did not deem
him proper subject ofcounty charity,
and that / could not, under the cir
cumstances, admit him; but the $40
had nothing to do with admission in
one way or the other, and he knows
this as well as the individual who
wrote the article for him. The object
on their part was purposely to put in
circulation slander, Influenced, as
was the, 1,ronlpter Of the entire state
ment, by a low jealousy, above which
certain men S0f small calibre cannot
raise themselves l admit all persons
to the hospital whom 1 deem entitled
to the public charity; but many are
refused, such as the class of vagabonds
who are in the habit of seeking hos
pital whenever the weather is inclem-
ent or they are out of job and money,
as we'll as such as prefer playing the
pauper to spending few dollars when
they are out Of employment.
When the man Tomasini was in my
Office last and pleaded poverty, / told
him Iwould cure him without charge
and DR.. Howard would furnish the
medicines; but afterwards upon the
representation Of a friend ofhis, gave
him d card OF admission to the hOspi-
tai and had him under treatment in
the hospital before the lying state
fnent appeared. I'acknowledge I ad-
mitted him with many doubts as to
his claims upon public charity.
These are the facts, and for them /
am iresponsible-n0t to Tomasini, for
he is a mere tool, but to the person
who patched up and put In shape the
vie sIander.. K. ID. WIsE, M. D.

WEATHER - RAIN - Snow. - The
rain which fell here last week wet
plowed ground to depth Of about
eight inches. It ceased raining on the
night Of the .2lst inst, since which
night we have enjoyedE magnificent
weather. Some snow fell on the
mountains In this vicinity. The high
peaks Of the San Francisco are very
white.
The fall Of rain alluded to, while II
has not raised the waters of the creeks,
to any great extent, will go great
way towards keeping them sup until
such time as = larger fall Of rain or
snow-which ought to come soon
will set them booming.
Up to this time, last fall, this section
was visited by no rain storms worth
speaking Of, so we are some gamer,
and farmers may, now, IL they choose,
turn up their lands.
February Of last year gave this Sec
.tion a good soaking. .-[Prescott Miner.
