More Red.haDded Work.

From the Franklin Enterprise, of Thurs
day, we copy the following. 1t reminds us
of the Shreveport Times account of the
Munos murder, and doubtless will be found,
if ever investigated, to be fully in keeping
with that cowardly and brutal murder:
The Radicals, grown bold by the long
continued fOrbearance Of our suffering peO-
pie, have melted the more violent among
the negro partisans to incendiarism, murder
and rapjne, and these dupes had gone so
far as to adopt plan of action, select the
victims to their hellish designs, and only
nefarlous schemes into execution. Happily
their plan miscarried by the timely discovery
OF the plot. Unfortunately, however, the
ringleaders took the alarm and de-
camped, with one exception-one Don
Louis, negro who thought himself
safe in New Iberia. He was arrested
yesterday by party of vigilants, and taken
to the woods and hung, and last night
notorious thief, Louis Brown. another negro,
was discovered, captured, and shared the
fate OF the sable Don. While we do not
give cOuntenance to this mode of Justice as
general rule, the venality of our courts
and the evident sympathy of our jail bird
officials with crime of every character,
have rendered it imperative that the people
should take the reins of justice IN their own
hands and forever rid the country of these
scoundrels.
In St. Martin it is even worse than in
Iberia, and the people have been forced to
organize themselves into vigilance COM
mittee for self protection. Judging from
the determined expression of the people it
will hardly be prudent for the Radical Off
Gals OF this parish to return soon, unless
accompanied by force ,ot the "boys in
blue"
Another case is reported in the New
Iberia Sugar Bowl of the thirteenth:
Considerable excitement prevails here
over the troubles in st. Martinsville. Last
Sunday evening a negro, one of the princl-
pal actors in the murderous scheme re-
Gently detected in St. Martin parish, was
arrested near this place by the vigilance
committee, who ordered him to leave the
State within twenty-four hours. This he
failed to do, and last Tuesday morning he
was again caught, handcuffed and taken
back to st. Martinsville, where he will be
delivered into the hands of the vigilance
committee.

Do WE DRESS CORRECTLY OR COMFORT
AnIY.-Women have lately had consider
able to say about their style OF dressing,
and they held a convention where models
of innovations were exposed anu inc Merlus
discussed. Few, male or female, but must
acknowledge that the style OF women's
dresses is not the best, though to most
mems eyes quite charming. II our lady
friends complain of their present modes Of
attire. why should nOt'meD utter word or
two for themselves9 Without doubt our
fashion of clothing is provocative Of
much suffering and misery, directly
and indirectly How we ever came
to adopt such outlandish pieces is
a mystery, and during this abominably
warm weather the Inconvenience is very
noticeable. No sooner does a man enter
his private apartments than he invoiunta
rilv "feels," and with a sense OF relief drops
each sweaty garment on the moor. lie never
thinks it is the "style" which has been
ANNOYING him, for so powerful is the sway
of fashion that his mind can not grasp the
idea that almost any change would be an
improvement would add to his comfort
or at least lessen some sources of
ANNOYANCE. Perhaps he might, when in
a peculiar mood, imagine he sees Adam and
Eve in the Garden OF Eden in full dress OF
modern bellies and beaux, which would in
deed be a cOmical sight.
All men can understand, when the sub
ject is duly considered, that pan,aioons,
coats, shirts, vests aud nearly every piece
worn is clumsy and really not pretty In
form, If ladies are bound to work needed
reformation in this, why should not gentle
menu 1t il difficult to say where or how
change may be perfected, but If the subject
ia agItated, hero equal to the emergency
NAV arise and immortaltze himself.

CoNvIcrs LoosE.-A gang of convicts
working on the levees, n OF far from Manchac,
appears to have lost some of its number.
On Thursday morning last an old colored
man went up on the jackson railroad to
gather roots and herbs, as is his custom and
means of livelihood; he was met by an old
eolored woman who warned him back,
stating that escaped convicts were abroad;
that they had taken everything from her
that she had and had beaten her. The old
man and old woman forthwith retreated.
How is this, messieurs, the lessees OF the
Penitentiary Since you make money out
of these unfortunate wretches, why don't
you take care of them9
