The Chains of North Louisiapa,

The Bastrop Republican, of August &c,
concludes an article upon the duty of the
Republican party in the next political cam
psigp, as follows:
The candidates of the Republican party,
the last two elections, have been taken
from New Orleans. By some sort of sue
cessful maneuvering in the conventions, the
New Orleans men have always won the
nominations, and then the votes to carry
their elections had to be found elsewhere
10 North Louisiana. If the candidates had
done for the best we should retain them in
places they had creditably filled d-even pro-
mote them. But they have not done well.
The official misconduct Of several OF them
has brought reproach on the Republican
party and to retain such men in Office is
species of insanity.
1t is fact that the Republicans of North
Louisiana can produce some of the most fit
and capable men in the whole State, and
on this ground, in making choice of Repub-
lican candidates in 1875, we shall certainly
advocate men from our own section, be-
cause, being personally known to the mass
of the Republican voters, they will bring
renewed strength TO the Republican ticket,
and for the further reason that we can fur
nish from this section the truest and best
men to be found in the Republican ranks in
the whole State. They should be nominal
ed because they. are the most capable and
their election will be more certain because
they are more popular. In their official
course, when elected. we will guarantee
there will be no more complaint of official
corruptiOp.

A School.GirI's Pride.

A St. Louis exchange relates an instance
of the pride of child who struggled to keep
up appearances, in a way that was touching
to witness. The hOpelessness of tho en-
deavor was painfully made manifest to her
by the wellmeant action of her teacher;
and the facts are these;
just before the close OF the last session
OF the public schools in this city, an incident
took place which, as an illustration, is more
than touching. At one of the schools
numbers OF the pupils were in the habit OF
bringing a luncheon with them, which at
noon they ate together. Among these who
did not go nome for dinner, the teacher in
particular room roticed little girl who
always sat looking wistfully at her play
mates when they went out with their
luncheon, but who never brought any her.
self. The child was always neatly but very
plainly clad, and one of the closest Of
students in school hours. The odd action
of the child's lasted for some time, when,
one day, the teacher noticed that the little
thing had apparently brought her dinner
The noon hour came, and the children took
their lunch as usual and went out to eat il,
the little girl referred to alone remaining in
the room with her dinner wrapped up in
paper on the desk before her. The teacher
advanced to the child and asked her why
she didn't go out to eat with the rest at
the same time putting out her hand toward
the package on the desk. Quick as thought
the girl clasped her hands over it and .ex-
claimed, sobbing:
Don't touch it, teacher: and don't tell,
please It's only blOcks.
And that was the fact Having no dinner
to bring, and too proud to reveal the pow
erty OF her family, the child had carefully
wrapped up number of small blocks in
the appearance of lunch 1t was nothing,
a mere ridiculous incident in school lite, but
it was sufficient to make wiser and older
hearts than hers sad.

Railroad items.

For some time the Mobile road has been
troubled with the situation of their track
leading to the depot, and, desired it should
be laid near the waters edge. This was at
the depot near the head of St. Joseph street.
The Mississippi Valley Transportation Com
pany have interests there, and had no OBJ
lection. The city refused permission, did
its best to prevent change on Julia street,
and an injunction was obtained from the
Superior District Court.
The road lost no time. 1t had built a
wharf, the change promised Q reduction of
nearly if not quite two cents on St. Louis
freight, there were none to oppose but the
city Administrators, and at eleven o'clock
last night seventy laborers were breaking
ground, placing sleepers and laying a steel
track. By this morning the track has been
laid, eight to ten inches lower than the old
track, twelve to twenty feet nearer tine
river, the engines and rolling stock are on
it, and business can go on without incon-
venience. The planking will be down bet
ter than on the old track, and it will be
seen that the change is an advantage to
every one interested.
the above conclusions are the result of o
visit to the scene of operations where the

from impromptu fires on piles of debris
shining on the work of others, and Mr..
