Then followed some pray yers in Latin, and the
blessing 0: the habit and veil. A lighted

Taxes, &c. His bond is said to DO
worthless, from the fact that the par.
tvs sureties are not worth the amount
expressed, and the bond, by reason Of
neglect, has not been recorded. So
the tax payers and citizens Of Natchi'
toches, are left in the suds. Red
mond left for parts unknown last
week, and although his absence was
noted within day or two after, en-.
quiries as to where he was, were qui-
eted by the assurance that he had
gone fishing. No steps have been
taken for his apprehension, although
he is now known to have absconded.
This is another telling argument
against the Radical rulers here, as
this man was a particular pet Of
Blunt, Myers, Boullt and Lewis, tho
grand thieving quartctte and mana
gers in general Of all the villainies
perpetrated on our people.

New Orleans to confer with his friends,

as "Deputy Parish Neasurcr," IN Of
fetal position We venture to say, I'M.
heard Of by even the compilers Of the
Code. The law does not provide for
Deputy Treasures, no more than it
docs for Deputy Judges, and Deputy
Presidents of the Police Jury, and
the law emphatically says, "the Hea-
surer shall certify to the correctness Of
the statement under Oath." The ques.
ton naturally arises, has w. H.
Boullt's oath any legal significance at
all, and We venture to assert, it has
not. He can swear to any thing for
another man, as PROXY oaths are in no
manner regarded as binding in law.
