SETTING young man ahoat with money lett

der the aims of one who cannot swim; ten
chances to one he will lose his bladder and go
to the bottom. Teach him to swim and ne
will not need b!adders. Give your child
sound education. See to it that his morals are
pure, his mind cultivated, and his whole nature
made subscrvient to the laws which govern
man, and you have given him what will be OF
more value than the wealth of the Indies Gu
have given him start which 10 misfortune
can deprive him Of. The earlier you teach MN IN

WANTED TO KNOW.

Several gentlemen, who take an interest
in local matters, wish to know why il was
deemed necessary for that small Demo
cratic colored club, which paraded Thurs
day evening, to have large escort Of
white men? Will any one say that there
was the least likelihood of the club being
attacked? If the answer is affirmative,
then inform US who the suspected parties
were. Certainly no members Of the Re.
publican party would offer violence; they
are not aggressive in that direction. The
fact that members of white political clubs
escorted their colored friends as body
guard would indicate that somebody
feared m attack. Altogether OF singly.
the sight was the ccnsummation OF our
dearest wishes. something which Repub.
licans have toiled for since the year 1862.
Our party has at last witnessed the fruition
Of their hopes, and finally beheld one OF
its most cherished theories consummated.
A party which has SO long and so per-
sistently fought Republicans because they
believed in giving colored citizens the
dearest rights OF freemen has at last,
right here in Louisiana S hotbed Of Democ"
racy, fully and practically adopted one OF
the foundation planks Of our platform.
At last Mohammed has gone to the noun.
tain, and now one portion of our great
principles is an accomplished fact. Demo.
Gratis have stolen our political thunder.
and glory in il. To that extent. at least
in this section, our task is finished, and 1t
seems as if the Democracy has come over
60 our side of the house. Lincoln, and
Greeley. and Sumner. how glorious sou
would have felt at the sight we beheld
Thursday night in New Orleans.

TERREBONEE.

Terrebonne is the political Bethlehem
of Louisiana. Out of her is TO come o
doctrine that will regenerate Democracy
and enable it TO arise in a resurrection to
Office. But this Terrebonne doctrine is
not popular, or of general adoption by
those for whose salvation it is proclaimed.
Il is upon the lips of the Democratic
seekers for official Immortality, but it is
very far away, pushed back and concealed
in the heart of TIE White Lacquer, as
thing every way unclean and inadmis-
sible. What is this new political dispen-
sation published from Terrebonnea That
there shall be no distinction OF
persons and that all candidates
shall be saved or damned for Office, &C.
ccrding to tue strictness with which they
obey the tenets Of this dispensation.
There is to be no political distinction
on account of color, says Terrebonne,
and all the Democratic people cry "amen,
and they add, "Good for Terrebonne J"
"Bully for Terrebonre! '-Three cheers
for Terrebonne' with tiger accompani-
ment for the Radicals. The Picay,me pats
the White League tiger with one hand
into temporary quiet, with the suggestion
of fresh blood; with the other hand it
swings its much battered castor with a
"lIip-hip hurrah for Terrebonne!
