newspaper circles. Within few
weeks several infants have been born
to achieve distinction or be extin-
guished in the arena of journalism.
The Artisan, the Hammer Germany,
the Orleanian, the Sunday Delta are
the healthiest looking Of the lot, but
it will require considerable doctoring
to carry them through their teething
this dreadful hot and dull season. But
the end is not yet. If current rumors
are to be credited we may have one
more-a new daily champion of the
Democratic party, under the control
of the State executive committee to
labor for 1876. No existing daily APP
pears satisfactory to these gentlemen !:
they want new organ to play with
more life the same old tunes. This
is not flattering to the Picayune and
Bulletin, or their past party service,
but the proposition meets with ap-
prevail, and it is asserted that certain
money-bags have united themselves
and mea business.
The Sunday Delta, Mr.. E. L. Jewell,
editor and proprietor, announces that
it will be published weekly until o.
tober, and thereafter daily. This
seems to be a move of that brilliant
journalist to secure the campaign
work and the organ. But the "white
horse :" chevalier does not inspire the
White League party with its former
confidence, and he can not obtain the
vantage without struggle. The
Delta is lively and spicy, however,
and is the strongest of the new babes.
On Tuesday, the case of Auditor
Clinton in the Superior District Court,
was postponed to the 10Th instant.
Attorney General Field will be as
sisted in this case by II. H. Mari, j.
@. A. Fellows and j. B. Cotton. Au-
ditor Clinton will be represented by
7. j. Semmes, Albert VOORHEES, and
Charles. S. Rice. This respectable
array is an assurance to the public,
that it is notintended to whitewash
Mr.. Clinton, or to indulge in q mock
trial, as some Of his opponents assert,
but to press the matter vigorously
and thoroughly.
The amateur dramatic clubs prevent
Il void of amusement at the theatres.
The evangelical churches placed Rev.
DR.. Palmer OH the boards of the
Academy last Sunday evening, and
he acquitted himself with usual credit.
This season the actors have been we'll
chosen, and the union meetings ia
vorable to the cause they advocated.
The Intercourse between different
branches of the Protestant faith has
created new friendships, and awakened
many sleeping souls to life-duty.
The Clerks Association will have
display Of fireworks OH the fourth of
July, and there may probably be
river excursion but no united re-
spectful observance Of the day has yet
been proposed. independence day
promises to share the fate of decora-
ton day in the eyes Of Confederate
Democracy.
Senator Blackburn will see to it
that a spark of patriotic fire be kim
died in North Louisiana, and will
speak to the people of Homer Oh July
Bird, on the past and present condition
of the country. So link with Hahn
vile the name of Homer and increase
the list of loyal towns, and touch your
hat for Blackburn.
There are encouraging reports of
school work in the States. North
Louisiana has Division@Superinten-
dent, James Brewster, who travels
over his division frequently, and pub
fishes Journal Of Education to create
a public opinion for his support. Su-
perintendcnt Loud of the third is
spoken Of as diligent worker. What
a pity that the press is so silent on
interesting educational topics; else
they would record more of the pro-
gross of public schools, and criticize
more carefully the conduct of school
officials. Our school work needs crit
icism as we'll as praise, administered
with friendly and judicious spirit.
