I'D Mr. L. e. SaN

many years a re of this place, u
parted with hisnfly for New Orleans
on Tuesday of last week, where he will
reside in future. We dislike to lose such
a citizen as Mr.. SALES, as he is of that en-
terprising, go-ahead spirit, which is SO
essential to the growth and prosperity of
country towns, and, considering his
means, has done much toward building
up and improving our growing little city,
as the property OF the corner of Lafayette
and Vermilion streets will prove.
Surrendered HimseG.-For several days
past we have heard rumors that Adrien
Breaux, who killed John P. Duffy OIL
Christmas eve., intended to surrender to
the authorities and stand his trial. The
report proves to have been correct, as hc
this wednesday, evening came to town
in company with friends and relatives.
and delivered himself into the hands of
the Sheriff. Having surrendered he was
taken to the Office of Mr.. E. Z. Mouton
his counsel, who succeeded in having his
bond fixed at $4,000, which was imme-
diately furnished, and he was admitted
to bail without preliminary examination.
His trial will come up at the next term of
the District Court.
Grand B0U.-The delay in receiving a
supply of ink and paper, enables to say q
word about the ball at Hebert's new bull.
ding on the night of the 8th inst, This
is the first ball that has taken place since
the erection of the Hall, andit was feared
that there would not be a general turn
out. The fears were %groundless, as the
hall was filed to overlooking with the
elite of the town, and country, and nothing
ever passed off more pleasantly. The
Hyperian Brass Band was there, and
made some good music. Musicians with
stringed instruments, from St. Martins
vile, were also in attendance. One of
the best features about the rules and
regulations of this ball room, is that no
one is allowed to enter with D
about him. We understand that the pro-
prietor is well satisfied with the result G.
his first attempt, and wiz give another
ball soon. We wish him success.
