paled slowly as the clouds too faded, and there
came over all the earth the hush Of day that
was done, while the spires OF the city grew
phantom-like against the dim skies and the
never ceasing refrain of the waters crept into
our hearts waking thoughts that were tender

town Of San Antonio, where the spirit Of the

evenings where in moonlight and starlight

JOHN YOUENEs.

The sudden death of this we'll known and
highly esteemed citizen has been widely fell
in this community, with whom he had be-
come identified by long career of useful
ness, and among whom he leaves not single
enemy. Capt. Youenes was native of Hol-
land, but came quite young to New Orleans,
where he has lived for the last forty or fifty
public trusts to the satisfaction of the entire
community.
Connected with the city government for
long period as Chief of Police, the ability, dis
erection and strict integrity with which he
filled the delicate and responsible duties of
that position have never been surpassed, and
even in times Of great political excitement
not breath Of censure was ever uttered
against him by friend or foe.
Since the war Capt. Youenes has filled the
office of fire warden to the great benefit of
the insurance companies and of the commu-
nifty at large, all of whom had unbounded
confidence in his capacity and untiring vigi
lance. An exemplary husband and father,
his kindness of heart mad endeared him to
overy one who came in contact with him in |
private life, and in mourning for his untimely
loss his friends and relatives have the conso-
iahon of knowing that he leaves an honored
memory and name without reproach.
Captain Youenes's funeral, which takes
place this afternoon, will doubtless be attend
cd by an imposing delegation of the Fire De-
partment, as well as by the elite of the old
population, of whom he was one of the most
representatives.

OUR JURY SYSTEM.

One of the most outrageous specimens OF the
bad legislation with which this State is cursed
is the oppressive manner in which those o.
our fellow-citzens who have the misfortune
to be impaneled as jurymen are treated.
Here is a man who after being Intercepted
by the lawyers and the judge, is accepted as
proper person to decide on criminal case.
He is at once locked up and shut out from
the intercourse of mankind, as though he
were himself the prosecuted party. Immured
in dingy and uncomfortable room, he must
wait till the full number of twelve jurors is
obtained - an operation often requiring
several days and may be kept for weeks in
that state of semi-penal servitude until he and
his fellow sufferers can agree upon verdict
In the meanwhile, he becomes stranger to
his own family and if he be laboring man,
depending on his daily wages for the support
of his wife and children the result is virtual
starvation for his family. He may be a man
engaged in business requiring his daily
supervision, but even if his being prevented
from SO doing were it only for one hour every
day, is calculated to entail grievous loss upon
him, and perhaps to put it beyond his power
to comply with his business engagements,
the law absolutely forbds the judge to grant |
him the necessary indulgence.
In case lately tried before one of our
courts, a laboring man who lives in the Sixth
District was kept for thirty days on the jury.
He not only lost the money he could have
earned during that period, and without which
the maintenance of his family became well
nigh impossible, but was put to daily ex-
penditure Of twenty cents for car hire.
gentleman engaged in a very important
branch Of business, requiring his constant at
tention, is now detained as a juror in the
Carney case, waiting for a full jury to be OBJ .
tained-a feat which appears to be extremely
difficult, owing to the absurd rule which re- {
quires that no one who has read or heard of I
case is qualified to act as juror unless he is |
able to swear that he formed no opinion S
whatever upon its merits at the time. i
The result of this rule is that men who can s
not read and are stone-deaf, are about the {
only parties qualified to sit in judgment of /
most criminal cases. t.
This is altogether wrong, and change in b
he law regulating trial by jury is urgently
by the intolerable hardships which L
IRE the inevitable sequence OF the present o
system. O
Whenever an era of reform is inaugurated o
n Louisiana, we hope this matter will be at IL
ended to by intelligent legislators. As mat Ct
er of course there is no help for it under the 81
present chaotic and illegal state of things b
allied the Kellogg Government, the only OBJ
ect of the parties who now play at the game T.

$ possible from the earnings of the people Sc

A CHILD's RIGHT TO CHILD
HOOD. A right that should be sa-
credIy guaranteed to children is
their childhood. Whatever else is
denied them, that should be ins ur-
ed. They can be children but once,
and they should have the full, free
opportunity Of growing and playing
in the trecst possible way while
childhood lasts. No greater wrong
can be inflicted OH children than
the too frequent robbiug them of
the mirth. the freedom, the joy, the
aimless hiIarity and etfervesccnce
that belong to the child time of
life. But the robbery is perpetrat-
ed by the very poor who compel
their children to work or beg, and
the rich and fashionable who make
dolls of them, and drag them about
for exhibition. "A great many peO-
pie seem to imagine that children
were made on purpose to wear pref
ty clothes and look beautiful and
behave like miniature men and
women, when this is just what they
were not made for and ought not
to be required to do. Religious
people often do violence to their
children's natures by trying to
make saints of them, when it is the
worst use a healthy child can pos.
sibly be put to. Windfalls are not
fruit. 1t is sheer folly TO try to
push May forward into October, or
bring October into May. The re-
Iigion of childhood is love of par.
ents, and trustful, joyous, expan-
sive life, and opennesS of heart and
mind to the best influences Of the
world. a jo, Gus, healthy childhood
full of nature and frolic, and the
unconscious learning OF life's initial
secrets and alphabetic lessons, is
the best possible preparation for
the cares and labors of mature
years. The memory of happy
childhood is one of the richest pos.
sessions one can have to carry
through life.-INe Golden A ge.

LITTLE BROWN HANDS.

They drove home the cows from the pasture,
Up through the long shady lane.
Where the quails whistle LOUD In the wheat
field
That ia yellow with ripcning grain.
They find in the thick waving grasses,
Where the scarlet Tipped strawberry grows
They 8 eather the earliest snOwdrops
Aud the first crimson bud of the rose.
They toss the hay in the meadow,
They gather the elder bloom white,
They fnd where the dusky grapes purple
In the sOft-tinted OctObsr light.
They know where the apples han. rpcst,
And are sweeter than Italy's wihes;
They know where.the fruit hangs the thicKest
On the long thorny, blackberry vines.
They gather the delicate seaweeds,
Avd build tiny castles of sand
They pick up the beautiful sea shells
Fairy barks they have drltted to land.
Where the orioles hammock nest swings,
And at night time are folded in slumbcr
BY d song that II fond mother sings.
Those who toll bravely are the strongest;
The humble and poor become great;
And from the brown handed children
Shall grow mighty rulers of state.
The pen of the author and statesman,
The noble and wise Of the land,
The sword and chisel and palette.
Shall be held in the little brown hand.
