Be, and would not be, if the true voice OF the
people found expression in our national iegis-
lative utterancee.
That the rich lowlands of Louisiana are ca
pable Of producing all the sugar required for
consumption in this country is beyond all
question. As yet their capacity in that di.
rsction has been tested only in the slightest
degree: The high standard Of Louisiana su-
Gar and molasses is universally admitted, and
# the productive resources Of the delta were
brought into complete requisition there would
be little necessity Of obtaining sugars from
abroad.
If the war in Cuba be continued few years
longer her sugar crop must be greatly re-
duced. In view of the contingencies which
may then arise it would be we'll for the far
seeing capitalists of the West and North to
invest in Louisiana sugar lands, now that they

Cuba and Louisiana.

The Washington Chronicle intimates that
Cuba's conflict is Louisiana's opportunity. In
1873, according to the official estimates, Cuba
imported into the United States sugar amount
ing to s54,O6l, 372, and molasses amounting
to 81, 400, go, making Q total of SCI, 482, O32
Against this large total our importations into
Cuba amounted TO only SIS, 231, O39. But
there were other importations from Cuba be-
side saccharine sweets, which swell the total
of Cuban importations into this country to
ST., 469, 1876.
Considering these figures in all their COM
mercial suggestiveness, the trade they repre-
sent NAV well be called one-sided. Our con-
temporary therefore inquiries if the product
of sugar, syrups and molasses cannot be so
increased in Louisiana that this sixty-one
million dollars paid to Cuba for those articles
could 90 to that State instead of going
abroad? This is an interesting and highly
important question. There is not the slight.
est approach to reciprocity in our existing
commercial relations with Cuba.
Our trade is fettered in order that the i'm
perisl government of Spain may obtain
through it the means of keeping the native
inhabitants of the beautiful island in bond
age. In other words, the United States are
indirectly assisting to subdue Q people in
whose favor their highest political symPa

Nip was newsboy, small and thin
Six wears old he was at most
peach-bloom cheek and dimpled chin
Never had much been his TO boast;
4 ragged bundle Of bones and skin,
lie looked no child, but a childish ghost
From carly morn TN the day grew dim
lie cried his " news " thro' the crowded street
Summer or winter alike TO him,
Treading the stones with his naked feet
4 few more rags when the frost was grim,
And q hungrier stomach-and less TO eat.
Poor little Nip, one New Years night,
Famished and footsore, cold and spent,
Curlod himself up as best he might
ON his wisp Of straw, and 10 sleep he went
When, lo as he lay there still and white,
wonderful vision TO Nip was sent
Ills rags were gone, and over his form
Fragrant waters there seemed to How
Then he was wrapped In n raiment warm,
And his senses stepped In a genial glow.
While q myriad Of angels seemed to swarm,
Singing and fluttering 10 and fro
And one that looked like u child, at least,
Took his hand twixt her tiny two,
And whispered Come 10 the New Years Feast,
We have spread for you and for such a. YOU
South. and North and West, and East
They are clothed and fed and made anew"
Then what banquet did Mn behold
Lying all white on bis wisp Of straw
Daintics and dishes a thousand-iold
More than waking, you ever saw,
In plattcrs Of silver and cups OF gold
An for Nip of the hungry mawl
All right royalty Nip was fed
Then. with his hand 'twixt her tiny two,
3" Come hithcr softly the chidhost said
One more JOY there is still for you;
Come and rest on dreamless bed
Come. and Our Father shall make you new
Balm for his suderngs manifold
Sunk In q sweet and dreamless rest,
Gone the hunger and pain and cold
Nip, in his vision rapt and blest
That New Years morning, at six years old,
Slept serene ON the Fathers breast
