The Patrons of Husbandry.

It looks to us as though the gentlemen in
whose hands has been placed the business
of organizing oranges of the Patrons Of
Husbandry in this State are doing all they
can to make the organization farce and
the whole matter ridiculous. A grange was
organized in this city early this month, and
constitutional offices were filed by two
doctors, two newspaper men, druggist, a
cotton broker and preacher. And now
comes the report Of the organization of a
grange in Franklin, in St. Mary parish.
where three lawyers appear as officers.
We have heretofore said good words of
the Changers. The farmers movement we
always believed to BE- good thing. pro-
vided il did not fall into the hands Of men
who. always unlucky in their former politi'
cal combinations, would attempt to use this
organization as political machine for their
own advancement. Such. Judging by the
class of men Who are now "sprinkling hay
seed in their hair seems TO be the case in
Louisiana. Quite breeze was created not
long ago by the organization OF grange in
Boston. composed Of merchants. Perhaps
the officers Of the grand body had better
look after the integrity Of their orsaniza-
ton in our State.

LAFAYETTE Fire lnsur ahce Company

The fourth annual statement Of the La.
fayette Fire Insurance Company Of New
Orleans is published this morning.
The exhibit Of the business done during
the year 1873 is a very satisfactory one,
and the company shown to be on sound
financial basis and prosperous.
More than SCI 900 have been received for
premiums on fire risks. and 81 900 paid for
losses. All losses have been paid. The
assets OF the company are over $500, 900. in
vested in first class securities and stock
notes.
The success Of the company is chiefly due
to the excellence Of its board of directors.
which is composed Of able and energetic
business men. and the ability and zeal OF
the officers.
The board Of directors for the year 1874
was chosen ON the twelfth instant. and
nearly all the former members reelected.
Messrs. Kasper Auch. president; Robert
jackson, vice president; Louis Mathis, Sec
rotary, and John Purcell. inspector. were
also reelected at the same time.
