Nosotros amamos 4 este hermoso

preferirfamos verlo hundido en- opro-
fundo del mar, a que perdiese un dia
ell catoicismo que entonces nos qul
sieron arrebatar: primero que existlr,
es vivir para una vida sin fin, y fuera
del catolicismo no hay salvacion, nj
para los pueb'os nj para los individuos;
por ESQ creimos no tener patria GUAM

deshonor de sus hijos, y la masonerfa
es la negacion de las glorias patrlas,

Por ESQ tambien es que detestamos
la polftica reyolucionaria, que quiso con
sus partidos traer la ruina q nuestra
patrla, porque los partidos, en- ella ne
cesarios, son los que dan esperanzas q
los masones; esta TERRA de leales,
sin partidos, es del dEico modo que
puede estar siempre unida su buena
madre. No Sc ilusionen los buenoS: el
bien tiene enemigos en- todo ell mundo;
en- Puerto Rico no pueden faltar con-
trarios a las glorias espanolas. Por ESQ
nosotros 10 que mas estimamos para
este pats es su religiosidad: las cos :
tumbres cat6licas sou las que salvan de
todas sus crisis 4 los pueblos cristianos:
los hijos de este pals, gratos al cielo
por sus benefcios, son los que le trae.
ran la primera felicidad que es la vir-
tud; sin virtud no hay dicha en- la tie
IRA para nadie, los corazones gratos
guardian todas las virtudes mas bellas
de nuestra religion.
lOjal3 que ell agradecimiento sea
hoy ell afecto de los mobiles hiios de
esta AntiIIa. Sin el dos de febrero,.
lqui6n sabe 10 que serfamos hoy! De-
mos gracias 4 este gobierno por los be-
neficios que entonces nos dispense,
porque puede que un dia, 81 no 10 ha

nuestro pecho.
El gobierno de aquel dia levant6

Solo nos guia ell noble agradecimien-

es ell todo para los pueblos
que quieren ser felices y solvarse: la

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

How TO MlfEA CoALlFIRs. - As the
season for fires has arrived, and many
are using coal for fuel, we give the
following from the Bankers Jour
nal: "There is as much art in max
ing a coal fire as there is in any of the
other arts of housekeeping. Ia this
season Ere should be made in the
CRATE that will last all day, giving a
moderate heat and ventilation for the
house. To DO this, first clear the CRATE,
then fill it about half full of coal, then
make wood fire. putting on few
sticks of wood. which will burn slowly,
gradually iguiting the coal. The wood
ashes on top OF the coal will prevent its
rapid consumption, and a fire thus
constructed, burning slowly, with a
moderate heat, will last all day. 1t is
always good economy to put one or
two sticks of wood on coal fire in a
CRATE, as the ashes will prevent the
coal from burning out fast and throw
more largely the heat into the room.

mill and mine. Reports also state

indebted. attached the bullion. The
teamster who hauled it TO- town has a

TAxEs.-Several packages of coin
from taxpayers in different parts of the
county arrived at the Treasurer's Office
yesterday by express. The coin was
intended for the payment of taxes. but
it came day too late and the addition

now added to the taxes of delinquents.
1t seems AS if there ought to be a pro-

taxes without additional cost.

TRY IT.-Chances for fortunes slip by
every day often unknown to US, but when
we see the chance and do not avail our
selves, then the negligence is almost Grim
inal. The golden drawing of the Louisiana
State Lottery Company, which takes place
in the latter part of this month, offers in
ducements which, if let slip, might never
offer again, and we would advise all to take
a chance. Lotteries have been objected to
on moral grounds, but with one fairly con-
Quoted there can be no more objection than
in risking ones money in the regular course
of business. There will be no scaling of
prizes, and the drawing will positively
come off as advertise d, 80 those who do not
wish to lose this chance to become rich had
better come forward and at once secure a
ticket All business is risk. A lottery is
nothing mOre-nothing less. Every one
investing in the golden draw wing can calcu-
late his chances. They are one in six for a
gold prize certain, and afford the oppor-
tunity of winning a splendid fortune. Who
would be rich, themselves must strike the
blow.
