question We extract the following. our
limited space precluding the possibility of
publishing the whole piece. After discuss
ing the blunders and betrayals of confidence
from which the road has suffered, the Press
asks why the line which, started out with
such brilliant prospects and with such aid
is not carried out to its completion. The
original intention was to extend the road
to conn ection with the Northern Pacific,
"and in the near future, with the absorp-
ton Of the Milwaukee and Northern road
to have extended its lines from Green Bay,
to Shawano." The reason why no work is
being done, and why the corporation has
lost its many chances for future success.

4 GRACEFUL ADxIssIoN.-0ur last
issue contained little squib headed
''Ctoquet vs.. Prayer" We had quito for
gotten tie subject matter until we learned
that the Rev. Jos. DeForest, of st. james,
bad commented upon it from the Chancel
Oh Sunday morning last.
4 fter announcing tho usual Friday eve-
ming service, he casually reverted to the
squib, saying, SHAT he did not write it or
authorize it's Production" and intimating
that in case he had, it would have been
differently worded. As he has thus gener-
ously admitted that he does not write our
locals, we ,eturn the unusual courtesy
by assuring our readers that We never, no
nerer, have written any of bis sermons; and
in case he has been guilty of stumbling in
regard to ritualism ''or any other ism.
we solemnly aver that We have never au-
thorized such departure. Our chrrchman-
ship (what there is OF it) is truly loyal, and
we emphatically deny all participation in
any and all irregularities in theology.
Why he assumed it to be his church of
which we were speaking; how he controls
the plural of church; or why he chose to
feel it hi. affair is more than we at present
khew. The last however, may have come
from sensitive conscience; which if so, is
above all praise. Our only fear was that
our remarks might be thought irreyerent,
but " hen We find that clergyman feels il
obligatory upon him to deny its authorship
from the chancel, We feel assured. The
only sensible conclusion arrived at in this
rather remarkable blunder, was the purity
of our motive, which was duly acknowl-
edged on bis rebound to the subject 1T ,oas
just as he kindly expressed it, "done from
the best of motives" and we feel grateful
that this our greatest merit rs appreciated.

Murder.

A most foul and unprovoked murder is
supposed to have been committed on Bayou
Rapides, near the Archinard place, some
ten days since. A negro woman, Isabella,
wife Of Steve Smith, a negro man we'll and
long known here, from some cause have
been on bad terms for some time, though
man and wife for thirty years. On Thurs
day, the eleventh instant, the woman Isa-
bella was missed, and for several days there
after strong suspicious of foul treatment
were rife among the negroes in the neighbor-
hood, and all were Outspoken against Steve.
her husband, as the author and cause of
her sudden and mysterious disappearance
Early in the day last Friday morning
the mystery and murder were unveiled by
the finding Of the body of Isabella in the
bayou, near the old blacksmith shop on the
Clarke place. The coroner was sent for,
and an inquest at once held, and the finding
thereof justified the just suspicion of the
negroes. A large cash in her head, given
with heavy instrument of iron, plainly
indicated that she had been killed, and then
thrown in the bayou. The verdict of the
jury was in keeping with these facts, charg-
ing Steve as the murderer, and negro
woman as accessory to the same. The
woman has been arrested and lodged ip jail
Steve is still at large, having left for parts
unknown the night previous TO the finding
of the body of the murdered woman-Aler-

Therefore, when the butcher rubs his hands
and asks what she will have she promptly

"Well, suppose pound would be enough

"You have veal, suppose9'
"Oh, yes. madam. Here's splendid bit
of veal-as good piece as ever saw"
"Yes, that does look like nice veal," she
says, lifting it up.
