Vile, Q short run over the lake, foxes are
abundant and the land high, and in every
way exactly suited to the requirements of
good hunting field. Late of an afternoon, in
. short stroll through the woods, these scam
pering reynards can be seen on every hand,
Is if inviting chase, and at times they be-
come so bold that sundry hen roosts have
been pillaged and aged matronly fowls sacri-
fced. Let the lovers of horn and hounds
look to it.
That ingenious and popular painter, W.
e. Uniacke, has just finished very original
and suggestive design for the State Of LOUISE |
ana. 1t represents a man Of aldermanic pro-
portions standing upon what appears to be |
half globe, his nasal organ large and rosy,
and his lower extremeties slim and altogether
weak. He has q hanging cloak hung round
his shoulders and drawn across his breast |
In his left hand he holds sword and pair |
of scales with one side very high up and the
other pulled down by the weight Of purse
of gold; his right hand turned behind his
back, apparently having just received purse.
Across his left eye is drawn the traditional
bandage which is generally made to cover
both eyes, and around him are seen flying |
several hungry looking birds of prey.
The intention OF Uniacke is to show the
vigilance Of Justice. which, blind elsewhere,
mas yet one eye open in New Orleans for the |
express purpose Of seeing how the wind
blows and what's o'clock. The purse in the
hand does not contain bride, but is en- |
blematic of the lavish charity for which the |
city and State fathers are SO justly famous.
The wild fowls flying arour !, are symbolical of
the ravens which feed those good officials |
who work without any regular salary.
Their motto is: Let us assist the tax
payers and carry out one Of Gods laws, the
Tenth Commandment, Thou shalt not covet
thy neighbors goods" etc.
