THE ALCIBIADEANS In ARMS

Watching for the Mctropolitans-Provis
Joining the Mob With Government
Rations-The Army Disbands and Re.
assemblies.
From a reliable gentleman just arrived
from the Teche country, we learn that on
Saturday last General Alcibiades DeBlanc
occupied st. Martinsville with from thou
sand to twelve hundred men, and couriers
were stationed all along the roads as far as
Lake Charles. The reason for this demon
stration was the rumor that the steamer
Minnie Avery was on her way up the bayou
with two hundred Metropolitans. This
proved to be a canard, and the army was
permitted to disband. This part of the
story is best told by the Iberia Progress, OF
the twenty ninth:
We are reliably informed that the two or
three hundred armed men who have been
encamped in St. Martinsville, awaiting the
arrival of the Metropolitans, did on the
evening of the twenty fifth instant break up
camp in row among themselves. and go to
their respective homes, many OF them re-
marking ''that it was the last time they
would be called out on any such On fool
| ishness" We are also informed that the
provisions distributed to the rioters was
| that furnished to the st. Martinsville people
| for the use of the overfowed OF that parish,
| and that parties (overtowed) applying for
| the same, as usual, were informed that the
| supply had given out, as the relief commit
| tee had supplied the soldiers with the same.
| Now for the sake of even our political
| opponents, we hope this statement may
| prove false, for as they are Louisianians,
we should be sorry indeed that the people
of the North, East and West should know
that We had people of any kind mean
and low spirited enough to put their noble
charities to any such ungrateful use. We
in Iberia, congratulate ourselves in having
one of the most peaceable and law abiding
communities in this State; and we boldly
assert, without fear of contradiction, that
| under no circumstances whatever will our
| supplies furnished to relieve the overtiOwed
be diverted from their proper course OF
| distribution.
| A dispatch received last night indicated
that the cry, 1.-THE peelers are coming "
was again resounding through the swamps
and bruslcs of the Attakapas, and mounted
men were scurrying hither and thither
rallying the warlike Acadians to meet and
wrestle the bue-coated aggressors, who
report said, were marching overla nd, ane
| were close upon them.
This was the condition of affairs at sun
set yesterday. We shall await furthe
news from this warlike neighborhood will
a great deal of solicitude.

The Aquatic Monthly.

Apropos of boating matters, that stan
dard nautical review, the aquatic Monthly,
is entitled to notice at the present time
The aquatic Monthly is the acknowledged
standard in boating matters; it is conducted
in spirit of fairness, and its pages are
filed with the latest intelligence concerning
regattas, and some very interesting reading
matter. It is now in its fourth volume,
and its typographical makeup is equal to
any first class monthly. The members OF
the New Orleans boat clubs who take in
terest in aquatics will find the aquatic
Monthlq valuable source of information.

RESIGNATION Of Louisiana Naval Cadet.

Master James M. Vance, who was ap-
pointed to the Naval Academy by the Hon.
George L. Smith, of the fourth congress
ional district of this State, has forwarded
bis resignation to the Secretary of the
Navy, assigning as a reason therefor the
failure of his eyesight. We sincerely regret
the necessity for this resignation. In this
connection it would be well to state that
Mr. Smith has been the only Congressman
from this State who has deemed it advisable
to appoint colored youths to our military
and naval institutions. His constituents
will no doubt remember this fact in the
coming election. Leonidas Levise, OF
Shreveport, has been appointed to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of Vance.

Catholic Total Abstinence Society.

The fourth annual convention of the gen.
eral union of this association will be held
in Chicago on the seventh day of October
next. At meeting of the Catholic Total
Abstinence State Union held last Wednes-
day, Messrs D. H. Buckley, Il. r. Giifney
and P A. Finney were elected delegates to
the convention. A better selection could
not have been made. Mr.. Buckley is a
young gentleman we'll and favorably known
in the community. He may be regarded as
one of the pioneers of the temperance cause
in this city. Messrs. Finney and Giffney
are also young men of high social position
in the community. 1t is gratifying to know
that a cause so noble and good will be so
titly represented.

THAT FIFTY YARD RAcE.-This long
looked for pedestrian contest will come on
to-day. Both parties have signed articles
of agreement and the committee stano
ready with the purse of $25. The contest
will be between Mr.. Thomas E. Graham, OF
this city and Mr.. Thomas Hoggarth, OF
Baton Rouge. The former gentleman Is
we'll known as the best hundred yards run
ner that has ever contested public match
in this State. Mr.. Graham is twenty-fOur
wears Of age and weighs 10 pounds. The
challenge Of Mr.: Hoggarth takes him at
short notice, but he is unwilling that that
Gentleman should leave the city without
race. Mr.. Graham has, during his career,
won sixteen matches. overcoming therein
tbirtv.seven competitors. The best time
ever made in hundred yard race in this
state is recorded at ten and quarter
seconds. and was made by Mr.. Graham,

levee would need to be in an important
section, under the control of responsible
men, especially planters whose all is at
stake, whereas, as things now are, it will
be in a deserted section from the fact of all
dwellings being washed away land de-
strOyed, and even the poorer and most
wretched abandoning the spot. To Ger.
tain extent to these causes can the last
crevasse be attributed.

AN EXCURSION TO MOBILE.-A small
poster on our table states that on the first
Monday in September an excursion train
will leave for Mobile and return the follow
ing day, the round trip costing only 81.
Why anybody should wish to go to Mobile
is a conundrum. Most sensible people, 80
far as pleasure is concerned would rather
pay g and not go. However. it is possible
that the managers Of this affair may sue
coed in making the trip somewhat out of
the ordinary. Surely SO far as the railroad
is concerned passengers may depend that
they will be well cared for.

LOUISIANA MONEY SPENT IN MISSISSIPPI.
During the present season considerable
sums of money changed hands at the sew
eral coast watering places in Mississippi,
most Of which went from Louisiana. In
deed, without New Orleaus patronage Pas
cagoula, Ocean Springs, Biloxi, Mississippi
City, Pass Christian, Bay ST. Louis and
other like places would fare but poorly if
our people did not frequent them and spend
their money freely. This season Biloxi has
been the favorite town, and without citizens
of this city our ancient neighhor would not
have tlourished as it has. SO familiar are
New Orleans folk with these resorts that
they never think they are away from home;
These are things for clearinghouse and
hotel keepers along the coast to Keep, In
their patrons are not gudgeons to bite at
anything offered and pay large prices for
Indifferent accommodations.

BLACK HILLS GOLD MINEs.-Captan
Thomas Flanagan, in charge Of the first
police precinct, formerly of the United
States army, and served several years in
the far West, having read the glowing
statements about great gobs of gold being
found in the Black Hills country, thinks
that the entire statement should be taken
with many large grains of salt. His prac-
teal experience in that section is not
golden, and he advises wealth seekers to
wait day or two before they become
miners.
