A distressing accident, resulting in
the death of Mr.. Gustave Blanchard,
a resident Of the Smoke Bend neigh
borhood, occurred at the sugar-house
on Mr.. john S. Wallis plantation, be-
low town, last Saturday night, where
he was employed for the rolling sea-
son. Mr.. Blanchard was passing be-
tween two stiles filled with boiling
juice when his foot slipped and he
fell into one, and was Of course fear-
fully scalded from head to foot. Mr..
Robt. Comstock succeeded in drag
ging the unfortunate man from the
kettle, burning a hand severely in
the attempt, but it was evident all
hope of the victims recovery was
vain. He fingered about four hours
in mortal agony, when death ensued,
and left a hideous mass of parboiled
flesh, too revolving to look upon. Mr.
Blanchard leaves wife and eight
children, of whom he was the sole
support.

We doubt if Mr.. Solomon Barmon
knew that his name was being used
as candidate for the Police Jury until
receiving intelligence of his election.
Like another Cincinnatus, he has
been called from the plow to serve
the people in a position of honor and
trust, and though the station is not
one of lofty grade, yet will he devote
himself as conscientiously to the per-
nance Of its duties as if it were the
Presidency of the United States. The
position sought the man in this in
stance, and the same may be said in
the case of Mr.. L. y. Arceneau, of
Smoke Bend, also elected a member
of the Police Jury, who never dreamed
of seeking a nomination or becoming
d candidate. Messrs. Barmon and
Arceneau are gentlemen who will do
honor to themselves and the party
which supported them in the capacity
of parish legislators.

A couple of candidates of the Dunn

A couple of candidates of the Dunn
faction who were defeated in the cleo
ton here, are engaged in the silly
business of obtaining signatures to a
petition, by which they perhaps hope
to set aside the popular verdict and
scramble into the positions they covet.
We say perhaps hope, for we scarcely
think they are SO credulous as to be-
lieve their scheme will prove success
full. We have not seen this petition,
nor have we taken the trouble to as
certain even the tenor of its contents,
but we presume it alleges intimida-

The st. Joseph Brass Band was out
on serenading tour last Saturday
night, and the boys seemed to enjoy
themselves immensely. They visited
the residences of Hon. Pierre Landry,
Squire Wilkinson, H. o. Maher, Esq,
and the editor of the CHIEF, and met
with cordial receptions. Mr.. Maher
was absent from home Saturday eve
ming, and when he learned upon his
return of the compliment that had
been paid him by the band, he in
dited tho following note, which has
been handed US for publication:
DoSALDsoNvILLE, November 8th 1874.
Frederick Fobb, Esq, President St. Joseph
Brass Band:
DEAR SIR-On my return from the sugar
house last night learned that your Band
had been around and had honorcd me with
a serenade. l am sorry that l was absent
| and did not know OF your intended visit, as
l would have been happy to show my high
appreciation of the honor conferred by
your excellent band to SO humble an indi-
vidual as myself. Hoping that you will
continue to receive the good wishes and
praise Of the public in the future as i'll the
past, and that in Il short time l will be able
to show my appreciation of the merits of
the St. Joseph Band in substantial manner
am, respectfully, your obdt. servant.

NOTICES OF THE PRESS.

The everincreasing 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 educators as well as enter
tanners Of the public mind for its vast pop
ularity has been won by no appeal to stupid
prejudices or depraved dtastes.-Boston Globe.
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 ,justifs.ble
complacency. 1t also entities them to q
great claim upon the public gratitude Tho

The Rev. Archbishop N. Pcrche ar
rived in Donaldsonyille by Thursdays
train, and was escorted to the resi-
dence Of Rev. Father Cuppens by a
procession of Catholic citizens, led

There was very light fall Of rain
Thursday, scarcely sufficient to lay
the dust. The sky continued threat
tening until yesterday evening, but
failed to yield up-or down-its
promised dampness, and at sunset
the clouds all cleared away and left a
canopy above us that contained no
indication of rain. The wind veered
to the North Thursday night, and the
atmosphere has been quite cool
since.
