This shows the importance of using

PLANTER.-Col. McGinnis, the pro-
prietor of the Excelsior Stable, under
the modest name of Planter, has ad-
vertised pure blood nag, whose ped
igree is faultless and traces back to
the best Of the olden time. Plan
ter's second and third dam we have
seen run in the good old days and
know they were considered good
ones, his sire it has been our good
fortune to see perform more than
once on the famed Metarie, and then
grand old Lexington, the sire Of his
first dam we believe we have seen
him run few times, as we'll as our
Lecomte, in whose veins commingled
the blood of Imported Glencoe and
Boston, as we'll as in Planter. But
enough, for we could write all day of
the racers of old, for the old frenzy
strikes right in us whenever that sub
ject is preached, so we must demand
attention to what we intended at the
start, the advertisement of Colonel
McGinnis.

In less than twenty-four hours
after the safe arrival here of three
Representative rads," we CHANGED to
hear two ignorant and gulhble ne
groes, who have long enough been
the dupes of the three mentioned, in
earnest and loud conversation over
the fact that the Republican Senate
would adjourn before the Rebel
House," because eve can't get our
rights any more now, and we fall
back Us we were before freedom
These are the exact words we heard,
and they plainly trace back to that
same old source, and have the same
old cant ring. No sooner back with
us, protected and unmolested, than
the same old poison is scattered
round, and as usual, to our detri-
ment. Surely our people do not in
tend to have it rubbed in and not
bulge; it is time for stop, decided
stop, to this infamy. Where are the
agony pliers? To the front, to the
front, now or never.

HOME DOTS,

We can't report the weather, the
past week, as coming up to the $3.50
order, for really it has been, take it
all in all, unpleasant, unreasonable
and almost unprecedented, even worse
than March resting in the lap of
April, Or old Boreas kicking up be-
fore and kicking up behind-the cot
ton of the Parish has suffered much
by this spell, and will have to be well
nursed and cut out to turn out ia
vorable stand-all our planters com
plain much on this line, but boast,
and justly too, of their fine stands of
corn-so we have a bad cotton start
oftsetby perfection in the corn line
the roads so-called, are yet awful, al
most impossible, so mu(h so indeed,
that one can't get out of the Corpora
ton to take drive with horse and
buggy-too big risk that, which
would only end in a job for old shad-
burne, q coffin from the brothers
Kelly and funeral cards at the Dem
ocrat Ofice-the river has gone up
about foot, is yet on rise, slight
rise, with full II feet bank in our
front-the last news from Shreve
port has her on stand-we may as
well come to full stop with the sad
announcement of dull and hard times,
no money in reach, and all hands
with a raging appetite, waiting for
the advent of dewberries.

THE EXTRA SESSION.

The Extra Session of the the Lou
isiana Legislature, called together in
accordance of the Wheeler Adjust
ment, adjourned sine die on Saturday
at - NJ. In our last we posted our
readers as to it's four days proceed
ings, of which we then had an &C
count of, and now will finish with its
adjournment. Taken all together we
are pleased to know that our party
has materially advanced and has now
a permanent foothold with and in the
Legislature, and if time and other
means, over which we had no control
prevented the passing of reform
measures, we have at least paved our
way safely and permanently for the
future, the regular session in Decem-
Der next. The Radicals, who control
the Senate would not of course con-
cur or take any steps to repeal the
many obnoxious laws under which
we have long 'groaned, but ever went
so far to talk against time and de-
feated the impeachment and suspen-
sion of the Christian Auditor, Gin
ton, and thus blocked efectually all
measures of good which were sought
to be made laws by the Conserva-
tives. A good bill, however, was
passed, which helps poor New Or
leans 100000 annually, and Captain
Jeffries, our worthy Representative,
as Chairman of the Committee OF
Ways and Means, forced a bill on
them, only giving $1,000 to the Sen
ate and $4,000 to the House as con-
tingent fund, which perfectly smash.
es into atoms the Dig steallnSs OF the
Radicals in those items. A harder
blow to the robbers could not be con.
ceived, and thus fully $4,000 is
saved and enough fairly allowed or
the contingent items. Ben. Bloom
field can't get this time $4,000 fol
$500 worth of his pens, ink, paper
and snoddy stationery.
A Bill has passed, which must
help the taxpayers considerably, but
which we only gather in hurry from
Captain Jeffries, which removes ali
penalties for 1873 and permits the
tax to be paid in State warrants.
