Piles which, if carried out in Govern

and welfare of the largest number
of the gOverned-that ascertaining,
the individual should act in concert
with that organization which is the
exponent of the principles which he
believes is for the good of our CON-
mon country. There are but two

ton, and known as the Radical par
ty. The other-out Of power, and
of course not subject to such charges,
and known as the Democratic par,
(which is at open issue with the
party in power, which is believed
by the majority of our people to be
totally corrupt. No abstract prin-
ciples of Government seem to be
advocated and pressed upon public
attention by either party.
The simple question now before
the people Of Louisiana is, how to
get rid of the dishonest, incapable
officials, representing the Radical
party. The only solution of that
question is to combine all the best
elements of the State in an organ
cation for their overthrow. The
Liberalized, Conservative Democra
cy furnish the organization, and
there can be no other through
which we can effect our object
Then it becomes the imperative
duty OF every good citizen to place
himself upon the Democratic plat
form, and exert his utmost influence
for the overthrow of the present
corrupt government. No side issues
must be made; NO compromises
with the enemy; no divisions in oul
own ranks; all minor differences
among ourselves must be reconciled
land the man or men who attempt
to divide US, should be looked upol
as public enemies.
We would fain keep out all bitter
ness, from the campaign soon t.
! open, but it has become a settle,
purpose among our people to throy
overheard the present corrupt AM
imbeci!e State Government, an,
those who stand in the way of it
achievement must take the cOnst
quences. Our people have nothin
, to fear from those arrayed in ope
}, warfare against US, but some pr
) Tossing friends may assume th
traitors garb-attempt to create d
visions among us, and thus defea
our purpose. If any such the1
; should be, who have any polite;
!. aspirations in the future, woe b
unto them. But we hope and trut
our people will suffer nothing to d
vide them, and thus weaken the
! efforts, but keep arrayed in a soil

The LOUISIANA PREss.-We re-
publish in this issue commendatory
notices Of the Banner, by our breth-
rem in different portions OF the State.
We do not know that We especially
deserve them on the score of merit,
but We feel that such kindly notices
have the effect Of making US renew
our exertions in making the Banner
such a paper as its friends would
desire to see it; and in dealing with
the various subjects of the day we
try to be as dignified as it is posi-
sible for so small a paper to be. On
the subject of politics we have but
one text: Democratic principles and
the Democratic party-on which we
expect to enlarge until the close Of
the polls in November, 1876. Hop
ing then to record the verdict of the
American people in favor of the
party and it's principles-hoping to
have the press continue to cheer us
on our way, we make our best bow
to one and all; may they all live
and prosper, at least until the gen.
eral jubilee over the redemption OF
our beloved State.

sCAB IN SHEEP.

1t is clearly ascertained by scientific men
that scab in sheep, like the itch in the hui
man being is connected with andpropagated
by certain minute insects belonging to the
class of acaria, which inhabit pimples or
pustules. But the question naturally arises,
How came it first into existence? This
problem is very difficult of solution, and
puzzles the most eminent Psychologists.
But as I have already said,, L have never
known it to break out spontaneously among
a lot of sheep properly managed, during
thirty years experienc as a shepherd in pas
toral districts. Various and conflicting
opinions exist as to what extent the disease
is infectious. Some affirm that it requires
sheep to come in contact with the disease
before it Can be communicated, while others
maintain that the disease is %propagated by
the mere travelling on the road, such as a
public drove road, from large markets OF
fairs. /, however, do not think the disease
is so catching. as the latter advocates affirm,
For example, | acted as shepherd for six
teen years, on various farms, where the
drove road from Falkirk to the Souty pass
through the sheep pasture, and every year
some of the lots of sheep were more or less
affected with scah, and during all that
period not a single sheep of which L had
charge caught the disease.
The cure of scab lies in the destruction of
the insect, but the important question is,
What is the best composition or infusion
for that purpose !? The remedies that are
commonly applied are numerous, but the
most e%ffectual, with the least danger of injur-
ing the animal, that | have ever seen applied,
is common spirits of tar; and, if properly
applied, will penetrate and destroy the in-I
sect concealed in the pustules, Or buried be-
meath the skin. The quantity applied may
vary according to the condition and age of
the sheep, but for hill, or ordinary breed
ing stock, one bottle of spirits of tar,
mixed With twelve times the quantity of wa
ter, Is suifisient for twelve sheep, or one
common Wias glass of the tar, mixed with
Twelve Times thssmount of water, Is suffi-
Gent for one. Ifnsxing for a hundred, six
gallons With six pounds of common SODA
ought to be warmed to aboiling pitch then

, THE ARABS ADVICE IN CHOOSING a,
HoRsE.-In choosing a horse never take one:
that has a narrow chest and Perpendicular
shoulders, or the withers fat and protrudings.
or the curb prominent or the vessicous,
SMALL; or if he hasa SPAWN, above all when
it is in the neighborhood of the lower veins ;.
OF an exostosis when it is near the tendons;.
or when his back is long and concave Or
when he cannot see in the night. Never
buy a horse With small shoulders, narrow
%nostri1s, long ears or short, stiff neck. Es-~
TEEN little a horse who switches his tail
while running, rests on his toes, or strikes
his front feet with his hind ones-an amber
will never do for a chief; and leave for the
pack a deaf horse for by the sight, hearing
and smell a horse can save his masters life.
The best trait in a horse is obedience; q,
good horse has this quality Joined to firm
ness.

FARMERS often raise poor stock which willa
not begin to pay its cost, simply because at.
the start they save a dollar or two by using
an inferior male animal. itisa well estab--
ished fact that pure bloods transmit their
characteristics to their offspring with much
more certainty than natives, which being
generally a combination of many strains Of
blood are liable to. giyerus progeny of alla
imaginable characteristics. But it does not
follow that we cannot improve upon our
nativestock by carefully selecting the breed.
