among the multitude isthe correct
one must remain questia for time
and perhaps eternity-t, decide.

AN INsTANcE.-One day last week
q trio Of colored boys who I'VE il, tire
suburbs Of Donaldsonville qmrseled
about some trivial matter and passing
from words to blows pummled each
others couutenances after tls maD1er
of irate youth the world over, The
worst consequences Of the fstic en-
counter were a black eye or ,wo and
. single bloody nose, but the majesty
of the law had been infringel upon
nevertheless, and two Of tls boys
were arraigned before a magistrate to-
.answer for their misconduct AMI were
demanded to Jail. The motherpf one
Of the youths was very anxions to get
her son released and applied to one
Of our leading merchants for aid. This
gentleman at once expressed his will
ingness to sign an appearances bond
and subsequently agreed to pay costs
if, as was suggested, the matter could
be dropped entirely. The bill of costs
was handed in, and it footed up no
less than $50 so! Now we do not
even insinnate that any official charged
one cent more for his services than the
law ALLOW ed him, but we merely cite
the case to demonstrate to the tax
payers Of the community what fear
full thing these "costs in criminal
prosecutions have been-yes, thanks
to the Police Jury, we can say have
been," for they are, to q great extent,
thing Of the past, as our Constables,
Justices of the Peace, Sheriff and
Clerk Of the Court are hencefortll to
receive fixed salaries for their services
in cases of q criminal nature. We
incline to the belief that hereafter
when very small boys indulge in little
fracasses common to youthful exper-
fence, they will be handed over to the
tender elcies of the maternal parent
much more frequently than has been
the case in time past, and thus will
they cease to become burdens upon
the community every time they tap a
playmate on the nose in childish
quarrel or throw a smaller companion
down and take his marbles away.
There has been entirely too much
petty litigation and prosecution in
our Justice Courts, and under the
new order of things we hope to see Il
radical reformation.

REINFORCEMENT.

Cutting Down the Parish Expenses
Good Work BY the New Police Jury.
Recognizing the necessity Of rednc-
ing the expenses Of the parish govern
lnent in order to bring them within
the limit Of the tax Of l43 mills, the
new Police Jury has gone to work in
the right way to accomplish that OBJ
ject.
At the meeting of this body held at
the Court House last Monday, the
Parish Attorney, Mr.. Fred. Duffel,
was called upon to advise the MEM
bers Of the most appropriate legisla-
ton to meet the exigencies Of the
hour, and the result proves that that
gentleman was equal to the emergency
and had well digested plan for at
fording the public purse strings relief
from the strain to which they have
for years been subjected to maintain
the rarochial government. In &C.
cordance with the suggestions of Mr..
Dutfel and another person whom
modesty forbids MS to name, the Police
Jury adopted resolutions effecting the
following objects: Reducing the sal
airy of the Parish Treasurer from 500
to 600 per year; reducing the salary
of the official printer from $3.50 to
$500; reducing the salary of the Jail
Physician from $24O to $50; giving
the Clerk Of Court, Sheriff, Justices
If the Peace and Constables fixed sal
aries in full compensation for services
in matters of a criminal nature, to-
wit: the Clerk, 5000 per year; the
Sheriff, $500; the Justices and Con-
stables Of the fourth ward, 5000 each !:
the Justices and Constables of other
wards, $75 each.
Compared with the appropriations
Of last year to cover the above items,
a reduction If $3.50 has been effected !;
but when it is considered that nearly
all said appropriations were made
quate to meet the bills drawn against
them, the saving appers very much
greater. The expenses of criminal
prosecutions especially have always
been largely in excess of appropria-
lions and the cdetailment of this item
is the most important feature Of the
system of retrenchment which seems
now to have been inaugurated in good
faith aud GU second basis.
There is of course complaint from
parties whose emoluments are SER
iously diminished by the action of the
Police Jury, but they in common with
other citizens must appreciate the alb
solute necessity for q curtailment of
expenditures. The new Jury will
have the Endorsement of the entire
people of Ascension SO long as their

A Metallic Burial Case Contrasting the

Last Saturday evening Mr.. Hypolite

containing the body Of 8 child. Draw
ing the coffin from the water, Mr..
Rodrigue made known his strange
discovery, aud the Coroner was soon
upon the spot attended by crowd Of
curious spectators. The coffin was
crossed to tl.e.lower side Of the Bayou
in a skiff, when the corpse was viewed
by the Coroner and Others through All

been broken. From the statements
Of persons who saw the body We judge
it to he that Of child about ten years

body was in a good state Of preserva,
