PASSAGE OF THE NEW CHARTER.

On Thursday, the last day of the
session of the General Assembly, the
new charter bill for the city of Dom
aldson was called up in the House of
Representative by Hon. P. Landry,
and after undergoing the several COLI
stitutional readings, was adopted by
an unanimous vote. Having pre-
viously passed the Senate, the bill
is now ready to receive the approval
of the. Governor, and under the Op-
Grafton of the last section will become
q law ON the first Monday of May
next.
Believing, as we do, that the sys-
tenn of municipal government provi-
ded by the bill in question will, under
efficient and honest administration,
prove of great benefit to our little
city and its inhabitants, we have ear
nestly advocated the measure, lending
our personal and editorial aid to its
perfection, consequently we feel graf
fled that the General Assembly has,
SO far as in that body lies, enacted
the charter bin into a law. That Gov.
Kellogg will give it his approval ad-
mits of little doubt, and when the
term of service of the present town
officers expires, We may look for their
places to be filed by officials appoint
ed by the Governor in accordance
with the provisions of the act of in
corporation passed last Thursday.
The duty will now deyolve upon
our Senator and Representatives to
select the best available men for the
city offices, as the appointments will
doubtless be made upon their recon-
incubation. We feel confident they
will exercise sound judgment in their
selections, and that our citizens may
rest assured the coming municipal
officials will he honest and capable
men.

SOME OPINIoNs.-tlThe old saw OF
Many men of many minds is APPLY
illustrated by the following extracts
the first taken from the St. James
Sentinel, the second from the st. John
Pioneer, the former q thorough going
Republican newspaper, the latter a
sorehead nonentity, devoted to the
dissemination of quack nostrums,
dead-head advertisements aud the
virtues of American homeless sardines.
The Sentinel says:
That sprightly and wi,ie-awake home news
paper, the Donaldsonyiale CHIEF, has been
appointed the official journal of Ascension
parish. Bentley deserves considerable credit
inr publishing so good 81 paper as the CHIEF.
While at the same time he attends to the du-
ties of Tax Collector for his parish.
And Bentley feels as proud as a
peacock, of course. Who wouldn't !?
Now cometh the Sorehead Pioneer
aforementioned and lgrowleth tlusly :.
We see from glance at the Donaldson
wife CHEF, that the public printing has
o been taken from the Ascension Leader (a
Republic paperl and given to that sheet.
Strange, but true.
The delicate insinuation that the
CHIEF is not a Republic paper
{" Republican is doubtless meant by
the homeless sardine of the Pioaeer)
will not alarm our political friends Or
induce the Republican Printing Board
to reconsider their action. MANY
men of many mirds," you know,
" Boney."
Among lot of French gibberish
that we have not time or inclination
to translate, the st. John MesckdeeJe
says that virtue has received its re-
ward and the CHIEFhas been appoint
ed official journal of Ascension par
ish.' The rest of the article is doubt |
less intended to illustrate the satirical |
spirit of the portion we have quoted,
and we say this iii order that our
readers who have any curiosity on
he subject may procure copy of the
HeschGeebe and read it for themselves.

LEGISLATIVE NOTES

| The session of the General Assem-
bly, which expired by constitutional
limitation day before yesterday, was
prolific of much good to Louisiana,
and the Republican party of the State
has reason to congratulate itself for
the exemplary conduct of its Repre-
sentatiyes in the law making branch
of the government. Conspicuous
among the acts of the Assembly just
closed stands I" the funding BILL" the
necessary and admirable financial
measure whereby the sweeping reduc-
ton of taxation from 2l1 to I44 mills
upon the dollar was rendered prac-
ticable, and whereby the State debt
will be reduced ten millions of dol
lars if the details of the bill are car
RED into successful operation. Other
eminently judicious measures have
been enacted into law, and will ap-
pear in detail in future issues of the
CHIEF, which, by virtue of contract
with the Board of Printing Commits
sioners, is an official medium for the
publication of State laws.
During the last three weeks of the
session Speaker Lowell was too i'll to
occupy the chair of the House. and
Hon. j. 5. Mathews of Tensas was
generally called upon to perform that
duty, which he did in very credit
able manner.
A large number of bills were passed
during the last days of the session. and
it will be impossible for US to note
them until they appear in the official
Journal of the Assembly. We hope
40 bad measures have crept in, in the
hurry and confusion of the closing
iours. to tarnish the fair general rec |
'rd of the session.
The only measure intended to ben
'fitthis immediate section which failed
# passage, was the bill incorporating

The eyerincreasiRg circulation of this ex-
cellent monthly proves its continued adap-
tation to popular desires and needs. In
deed, when we think into how many homes
it penetrates every month"; we must consider
it as one OF the edncatoss as well as enter
tanners of the public mind, for its vast pop
ularity has been won ny no appeal to stupid
prejudices or depraved tastes.-Boston Gtobe.
The character which this magazine pos
sesses for variety, enterprise, artistic wealth.
and literary culture that it has kept pace
with, if it has not led the times, should cause
its conductors to regard it with justifiable
eonplacency. It also entities them to a
great claim upon the public gratitude. The
MAGAZINE has done good and not evil all the
days of its life.-Brookiya Eagle,

THE BAYOU LAF0UROHE RAIL
WAY BILL PASSED.

The bill introduced in the upper
house of the General Assembly au-
thorizing the construction of a rail-
road from Donaldsonyille to Lafourche
Crossing and beyond, passed the lower
House Thursday, and will become a
law with the Governors approval.
1t is safe to say that the work pro-
posed to be done under this enact
ment will be of greater and more per-
manent benefit to our town and sec
ton than any scheme of similar nature
ever conceived, and all interested in
the welfare of this community, as well
as that of the people residing along
the bayou between here and the Gulf,
will unite with us in expressing the
hope that the new road may be begun
ut the earliest practicable moment
and pushed rapidly forward to COM
pletion. So palpable are the advan-
tages which would result from the
construction of the proposed road,
we have yet to hear of the first oppo-
nent of the scheme or the first MUIR
muir of doubt regarding its wisdom
and feasibility.
As soon as practicable we shall pub
lish the full text of the Bayou La
fourche Railway bill and comment
thereon at greater length.
