The Western papers are discussing with some
animation Mr.. Warwick King maker) Waiter
sons between-driDks phantasy of Grant ss q
Cesar. The idea is universally pooh pool, but
some Of the papers are inclined to think that he
may be reelected. The Springfield (nl.) Regis
ter, dc noeratic paper, says "Gen. Grant may
be elected third time, but no other candidate
ever will be-" The ST. Louis Democrat (rep.)
suspects " that the President has at present no
idea OF being reelected, and If the people should
have an idea OF rejecting him they will do 1t ?,
but adds that his reelection would not give any
support to the dream of empire, or indicate
that the American people were in the least de-
gree disposed to abandon the power or electing
their rulers altogether.

BUILDING Association Securities and

The last legislature or Pennsylvania passed
bill giving building associations the power to
advance money on any security 1t may think
desirable, such ss personal property, notes, Sc
The old building assoc alton law in that state
prohibited the loaning of money except upon
real estate security. The fol owing is the pro-
vision OF the new Law bearing upon the point:
Clause !. They shall have the power and fran
chise OF loaning or advancing 20 the stockhold-
ers thereof, the moneys accumulated from time
70 time, and the power and right to secure the
repayment ofsuch moneys, and the performance
or the other conditions upon which the loans are

curfty, as well as the power and right to purchase
or erect houses, and TO sell, convey lease mort
gage the same at their pleasure, to their stock
holders or others, for the benefit Of their stock
holders, in such manner; also that the premiums
taken by the SAID associations for the preference
or priority Of snch loans, shall not be deemed
usurfous, and 30, also, that in case of non-pay-
ment OF instruments or interest by borrowing
stockholders for six months, payment Of prin-
cipal, premium and interest, without deducting
the premium paid or interest thereon, may be
enforced by preceding on their securities, &C.
cording TO law.

made to stockholders from ranking as usury,
and also authorizes the sale of securities In case

IL has always been easy for the peace philan-
tfopists TO chow the absurdity and cruelty Of
war, and the desirability of settling al contro-
yersies among nations by an international con-
gIess, and we remember the prediction some
years ago by the smiable president Of the
American Peace Society, that, in the growing
light of civilization and intelligence, no great
war would ever be possible again. But he had
hardly settled down in this comfortable belief
when the Russian war broke out, followed by
the series Of bloody wars that involved all
Europe in carnage, and which was compile
mented on this side of the ocean by the greatest
civil war in history. Still the good people who
favor q general substitution or arbitr alton for
war rs q means Of settling international dis
putes are hopeful, and they take no little COM
fort from the success of the Alabama expert
ment, as also from the fact that the psrliam ents
Of some European countries have passed resolu-
tons looking toward general disarmament; and

A STATESMAN AND A P1cKPoKET.-
One day Edward Fox went with his
brother, Charles James Fox, to wit
ness the first balloon ascent made in
England. There was a great crowd,
and Fox detected a pickpocket at
tempting to relieve him Of his watch.
"My Friend" said he, "you have
chosen an occupation which will be
your ruin at last" The thief burst
into tears, and exclaimed: ooh, Mr..
Fox, forgive me, and let me go. I
have been driven to this by necessl.
ty alone; my wife and children are
starving" Fox compassionately
gave him a guinea, and he went away
with blessings on his lips: Soon af-
ter, Fox, wishing to know what time
it was, found his watch missing
"Good God" he exclaimed, nv

REVEREND FATHER J. b. DUFFY.
The Reverend Father J. B. Duffy,
C. SIS. r., of St. Alphonsus Church,
died at o'clock on Tuesday morn
ing at Chattawa, whittier he had gone
with the hope of improving his fail
ing health. Father Duffy was born
in Ireland A. D. 1926, and was, at
the time of his death, in his 49th
year. His parents emigrated to this
country when he was yet an infant,
and settled in Philadelphia. He was
there educated, and was. ordained
priest little more than twenty-five
years ago. In 1851 he came to New
Orleans, and has since that time pre-
sided over the spiritual welfare Of
St. Alphonsus parishioners, to whom,
as we'll as others he came in contact
with, he became endeared. Th e
twenty,tifth anniversary Of his ordi-
nation was celebrated on the 14th of
July last, when the immense number
of people that attended was ample
proof of the veneration and love he
commanded among us. His life has
been pure, unselfish and holy one,
his whole soul being given to the
amelioration Of our spiritual welfare.
Father Duffy has long suffered
from III at incurable scourge, con-
sumption, and it was with hope of
improving his health by rest from
his labors for a short time, that he
went to Chattawa. Whilst there he
met with painful accident, breaking
his ankle, which undoubtedly has
tened his death. His loss will be
keenly felt, not only by his congrega-
ton, but by thousands in the city,
to whom his name had become an
other word for chest of friends and
advisers - N. o. Times. aeF

REMARKABLE.--A marked feature
and speciality of the recent conflict
in New Orleans, must be remembered
by our colored folks here in Rapides.
The contest was purely and solely
between the white citizens and the
carpet baggers, the latter of whom
are the worst enemies Of the black
race, and not single colored man
was engaged in the conflict, t h s
giving US striking proofs of all we
have said and written on this sub
ject. We begin to believe the negro
Of Rapides will soon open his eyes
and look this matter in it's true and
most sensible light, will jump back
to our side of the ditch, shake hands
with his real friends, and bury the
carpet-bagger in the ditch at that
Time and experience will show we
are right.

State Fair.

Luther Homes, Secretary and Trea-
surer Of the Mechanics and Agri-
cultural Fair Grounds Association.
New Orleans, sends greeting as fol-
lows: =
At the meeting of the Directors of
the Mechanics and Agricultural Fair
Association of Louisiana, held on the
evening of September 2, 1874, it was
decided that the Louisiana State
Fair should take place on the Fair
Grounds, city of New Orleans, begin
ming on the 4th of February, 1875,
and ending on the 18th, of said
month. Besides the large premiums
to be awarded at this Fair and the
privalege granted to exhibitors to
sell their exhibited articles while the
Fair is in existence, there will be a
lottery attached to it, the highest
prize to be $4,000. Another impor
tant feature attending the Fair and
Carnival will be the order of King
Rex. That will inspire the officers
of railroads throughout the United
States to transport passengers to and
from the city of New Orleans during
the Fair and Carnival week at re-
duced rates.

THE MEET1NG.-A meeting of the Citi-
zens of the Parish, was held in the Town
Hall, on Saturday, to endorse the action
of New Orleans in their late affair for
the redemption of Louisiana. Though
the news had no time to spread, still
the meeting was largely attended by the
very best and most respectable of our
people, from nearly every section Of the
Parish. Governor Moore presided, and
most able, moderate and eloquent
speeches were made by j. G. White,
w. F. Blackman and Judge Ryan,
Rapides is always ready to be right on
the record and faced the music on this
occasion, and we are prouder of her
now than ever. She is for the right
and hence cannot be wrong, when she
echoes the voice of her down trodden
DeODle.

A Riot that Happened Thirty-Three
Years Ago.
BUT NO FEDERAL TROOPS WERE CALLED
FOR.

Our old friend Harper, of the Ray.
mond Gazette, has been shown a copy
of the Raymond Times, dated Sep
TENDER It: 1s41, or nearly thirty
three years ago. Among other items
of interest found recorded in the col
umns Of the Times, the following is
quite suggestive just now. The Ga.
zette says:
"The paper contains an account Of
a riot at Cincinnati between the
whites and blacks. Some 300 whites
assembled and drove all the negroes
of the city from the streets, compel
ling them to leave the town or take
refuge in hiding places. A cannon
was brought out by the whites, and
fred down the streets in the negro
part of the town, killing and wound.
ing many negroes. The Phflahthro.
pist printing office, which sided with
the negroes, was entirely destroyed,
and the editor and his family required
to leave the city. The negro church
was also destroyed
This, it should be remembered, oc-
Cured in the goodly city of Cincin-
natl, where there were then, and are
now, about forty white people to ev-
cry negro that can be found in the
place. Though the white people
"drove all the negroes of the city
from the streets, compelling them to
leave town or take refuge in hiding
places" though they brought out a
cannon and 'sfired down the streets,
killing and wounding many negroes;
though the ''Philanphropist printing
office was entirely destroyed, and the
editor and his family required to
leave the city, because he s'sided
with the negroes" and though ''the
negro church was also destroyed"
we do not read that the Mayor of
Cincinnati or the Governor Of Ohio
made an appeal to the President of
the United States for troops, that
they proposed to declare martial law,
or that Ohio was threatened with the
obliteration Of State lines and State
government Vicksburg Herald.
