The Bankruptcy Law.

1t is pretty certain that the Senate
will not pass the bill for the repeal OF
the Bankrupt law, although some OF
the leading lawyers there were in favor
of repeating it. The following amend
,nent to the present law introduced by
Senator Wright, of Iowa ia probably
all that will he accomplished this win
ter, and even this may not pass: On
all proceedings in acknowledgements
ed subsequently, to the first day OF Jam
uary, 1873, no discharge shall be grant,
ed to a debtor whose assets shall not be
equal to so per cent. OF the claims
proved against his estate upon which
lie shall be liable as the principal debt
or, unless the assent in writing of a
ma iority in number and value OF his
creditors TO whom he shall have become
liable as a principal debtor, and vino
shall have proved their claims, be filed
in the case at or before the time OF
hearing the application for discharge,
provided that the provisions OF this act
shall not apply to those debts from
which the bankrupt seeks q discharge
which were contracted prior 70 the Isl
of January, 1878.

The Press Convention.


The convention ofeditors and publish
ers, held at Baton Rouge on the 4th
inst, seems to have proved satisfactory
to all concerned. Though but seventeen
papers were represented, the members
were of the right sort, and the business
for which it had been convened was
transacted quite as speedily as it could
have been with the presence of a much
larger number.
In the temporary organization w. L.
Annis, of the Baton Rouge Gazette
Comet, was chosen chairman, and W. H.
Tunnard, of the Red River News, seCre-
tary, and they were reelected upOnper-
manent organization. After the appoint
ment of a committee Oh business an ad-
iOurnment until next day took place.
Saturday evening the committee re-
ported resolutions fixing a tariff of rates
to be charged advertising agents, which
the members all and saTerally agreed to
adhere to; declaring a square to be 81
ems OF type; protesting against the re-
peal of the postage law in so far as it re-
lates to the free transmission OfeXchange
papers, and asking our congressman to
unite in an effort to restore the former
provisions of hat law at the nextsession
of Congress. These resolutions were
unanimously adopted. A~resOlution was
also adopted providing for the OrganiZa-
ton of a permanent "Press Association
OF Louisiana" Immediately after the adj
iOurnment of the convention, and that
body then dissolved.
The Press Association was at once
formed, Harry Hyams, of the West Ba-
ton Rouge Sugar Planter, being chosen
president; J. Henri Burch, of the Baton
Rouge Grand Era, first vice-president;
SonNI1nl T 81 n11,np4 Of &ho G1Inf0o d. fYInt
Democrat, second vice-president; W. G..
Annis, of the Baton Rouge Gazette
Comet, corresponding secretary; E. L.
Weber, of the Bayou Sara Dunn Leader,
recording secretary, and j. w. Jackson,
OF the OpelOusas Journal, treasurer. The
Association then adjourned tOre-assem-
BILE on the 23d of October, 1873.
Saturday evening the association at
tended a splendid banquet at the Harvey
House, given by the municipal author
tiles and citizens of Baton Rouge.
The affair was a most pleasant one. The
doctrine of unificatiOn was carried into
practical effect, and the oldest and
best citizens of 0atOn Rouge ate,
drank and ~speechitied beside J. Henri
Burch and a number of other COlored
men who were invited guests. The
usual amount of roast turkey and cham
payne was disposed of, while nearly
every person present al called upon
for a speech or toast, corresponding in
happy spirit, and all expressing sat
isfaction that the day of race OF color
distinction had passed away. Auniver-
sal sentiment in favor of restoring the
State capitol to the city of Baton Rouge
pervaded the assembly, and all the nu-
merous references on the subject were
hailed with much applause.

The Career ef ? Greae REemedy.-Twenty
summers have elapsed since it was briefly an
nounced that a new vegetable tonic and altera-
tive, bearing the name of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, had been added to the list of preventive
and restorative medicines. The modest adver.
tisement whieR ipyited attention to the prepar-
alton stated that it had been used with great
success in private practice as a cure for dyspep-
sla, bilious complaints, constipation and inter-
mallffent fever. It was soon discovered that the
article possessed extraordinary properties. The
people, OF every elass, testedf It's mefts as a tonic,
stimulant, corrective and restOratiEe, and found
that Its effects more than filled their hopes and
expectations. From that time to the presentits
course has been upward and onward, and it
stands to-day at the head of all medicines of it's
class, American or imported, in the magnitude
OF It's sales ana its reputation as a safe, agree
able and potent jnFigorant ana restorative. For
languor and debility, lack of appetite and gas
trio disturbances so common during the summer
nloIthR It is absolutely infa1ible. Indigestion,
bilious disorders constipation, nervousness, pc
riodlcal feyers, and aIf the ordinary complaints
generated by a Initiated and humid atmosphere,
vanish under its renoEating and regulating in
flence. This is Its record, ayouehed by volumes
OF intelligent testimony, extending over a pc
Rod of a fifth OF a century, and compEehendipg
the names Of thousands of wen known citizens
belonging toeveEy class and calling. In Europe
it is thought agTeat thing to obtain the patron
age Of royalty for o patent medicine but
HostetteT's Bitters has been spontaneously APP
proved by millieus Of independent soveEeagns,
and its patent consists IN their endorsement.

DEAD-HEAD J0URNALIsM.-GeoFge T,
RoWell g. Co. have an article in the last
number of their Reporter on the subject
of that large class of gentlemen who al
ways want to appear in print WITHOUT
paying the laboTer his hire. We extract:
IF a man buys a new buggy, or if his
COW can bawl three times without wink
ing, the local is expected to proclaim it
with a grand flourish. If he starts a
tWo-penny business, his first thought is
to bride the local with a five cent cigar
to write up O five dollar puff. Indeed,
he thinks it a mission of the local to
make his fortune fOrhim by free blow
ing.' He will take the local to one side,
and point out the superior qualities Of a
rat TERROR dog, and coolly ask him to
: give him a hoist He don't care any
thing about it, only Spriggins has a dog
which he thinks is buster, and some of
'em wanted his put in just to take the
eonceit out of s~ppiggins.' Everybody
wants to be put in they are the GREAT
yourself inside this new suit of clothes,
or throw yourself outside this oyster
stew, or stuff this watch down into your
pocket Oh, no, of course not; that
would cost something, The shoe is on
the other foot, you sex, The local Is
supposed to know everything about
other peoples business, and is expected
to show up all the actors in every family
broil in town. If the vile tongue of
scandal finds a victim, people wonder
why he don't run about with his note
book and gather up the yituperative
bits of SANDER for his paper. lie he steps
into a billiard hall he is requested to
make a note of the astonishing fact that
Bill Thompkins has made a run Of
eleven points, When the minstrel
tToup arrives in town, She agent imme-
diately rushes into the printing Office,
and, calling for the local, he slips three
orfour tickets.in his hand, and whispers;
: Draw us q big house. Put tin strongn
and patting him patronisingly on the
shoulder, the agent admits the inferior
Ity of the tr0Hp. but we + not to F3et
on 1t is no sin for the local to lie. To
please the lecturer the local is forced
to sit two mortal hours to hear him
through an insipid discourse SO that he
can write him up And so it goes.
All are anxious TO appear fayorably in
print, but few are willing to pay for it!
The locals time is worth nothing, but
to botller his head writing nufffs for am
bilious persons. IT don't cost him any
thing toliye. He never eats, or drinks,
or travels, and money is OF no pse to
him. Pit II in. PUTT in
