IS matter Of profit to the canal com
psny. Probably it would require but
three locks. the construction of which
would not require an e1horbitant sum,
to render the canal navigable.
II Last Thursday afternoon, says
the Yreka Journal, Eddie, second son Of
G. McNulty. aged II years. met with q
terrible accident, which at the time was
supposed woald prove fatal. though he
is not out of danger yet. 1t seems that
he WAS close to the plow, while James
Beveridge was plowing. when ono Of
the horses stepped upon a pitchford
lying on the ground. throwing it with
great force against the boys head. One
prong penetrated the forehead above
the eye. smother in the left cheek below
the ego, another under the chm, while
the fourth did not touch his body. He
was attended BY DR.. Ream. and it is
believed that he will recover. Although
he suffered greatly at first. he il nov
getting almost remarkably well .undsr
the circumstances.
. A plan has been proposed Tor clearing
and improving the Olympia fair sreusds
similar to that adopted last year for the
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-02-13

.The action of the caucus" he said, Tin.
dicsted that the time had come to lower the
Democratic banner, and he wished to re.
tire" 1t was precisely this sort of argument
which drove the majority of the Southern
States into the rebellion. When a conserva.
tive mot the partisan) protested against
the ordinance of secession, he was answer
ed in the same strain. McEnery's patriotic
logic, dictated by personal motives, seems
to have been effective with the timid
Louisianians. They rescinded their former
vote, and to further intimidate them and
make them obedient to hid wishes, there
was a grand mass meeting of White
Leaguers, the impetuous, ardent young
fanatics we have described. on Saturday
night, in New Orleans. to denounce all COM
promise and declare the purpose Of the free
people of Louisiana to perish-if need be-
in the last ditch.
All this would be very ridiculous if it
were not very painful. Between its foolish
young men and shrewd politicians of ma
turer years, there seems to be no peace for
Louisiana but that which springs from the
firm exercise of stern auth0rIty.-PAiladel
