may think, futurity will consider the poetic
rather than the professional aspect of Mr.
Forman's effort. When an Indifferent law
yer dies he ceases to be dangerous, and is
therefore briskly forgotten, but when
a great poet bequeaths to the human race
so rich legacy as Mr.. Forman here has
done, he is remembered and admired and
deified in s9cula s9cnlorum. And that ia
what we predict for Mr.. FOrmsn. In the
good time coming, when tax resisters aud
rascality shall be unknown, and when Mr..
Foiman and his fellow patriots shall have
departed to a purer aud more congenial
world, this Louisiana Had will have found
place among sublime and memorable
things, and its author sit enthroned in
history among the crowned and sceptred
masters of the art. We are sure of this
we speak in fit Of prophecy. We are go
sure of il that we could advise Mr.. Booth
to beat his Tyre into hat-stretcher, and
the soaring band of doctors to recall their
souls to ipecac

Grand Openlng.

Yesterday the elegant parlors of Mrs. F.
r. Hsrdon, No. 90 Chartres street, presented
a brilliant scene, the occasion being the
grand opening of fall and winter millinery
at this ever popular emporium of fashions.
The day was all that could be desired, and
the ladies took advantage of the bright
weather to visit in crowds, embracing the
representatives of the wealth and refine
ment of our city, the spacious rooms of Mrs.
Hardon, where the latest and most attrac-
tive styles of hats, bonnets, feathers, rib
bons, ETC., were displayed. The hats, we
notice, are decked with wealth of birds
and feathers, of every shade and variety.
Among the many sty les the Rembrandt,
Lucia, Louvre and Inverness are, we think,
destined to be most popular. The various
patterns exhibited yesterday may be seen
for several days to come, and We advise our
fair friends to give Mrs. Hsrdon call.

! CELEBRATING WAsHGEGToN's BIRTH
lDAY.-To keep forever fresh in our
hearts a true love for the memory Q
Geo. Washington, is noble and al
most sublime. Among the residents
of Huntington is gentleman known
far and wide for his great love of the
To- s. Constitution and the memory
Of Geo. Washington and on the re-
currence of each 22nd of February
our hero celebrates the day IN be-
coming manner, business becoming q
secondary consideration. This year he
concluded that he would celebrate
the day at Guyandotte and to that eff
feet made known his views to the
! Mayor and select Council of that an
cient, picturesque and weather-beaten
place. The authorities gave him a
cordial invitation to carry into execu-
ton his desires and appointed com
mittee to meet him at the depot at
Guyan. Last Monday morning MIR.
b. supplied his overcoat with a small
American flag, copy of the Declare
ton of Independence and a few bunch
es of Chinese fire crackers. The flag
he was to carry through the streets
of Guyan; the Declaration he was
to read in font of the Capitol (now
removed to Guyam; and the tre'
crackers he intended to distribute to
the Young Guyaners. Thus equip
ned. he reached the depot in this city
at halt past ten o'clock on Monday
morning, and finding that the ex'
press train had gone, he seated him
self in a Caboose attached to a freight
train standing on side track, fully
believing that the train would shortly
start for Guyandotte. While IN the
Caboose the tram was backed down
70 the Elevator and then drawn back
10 the Depot, during which time Mr.
b. was absorbed over his speech
which he intended hurting at the
Guyandotte reception committee 'na'
he lost sight of the fact that the = "a
boose had halted in front of the ONCE
of Gen. Breslin. Awaking from ms

FATAL ACCIDENT.-DEATH on
THE RML.-The first fatal accident
that has ever happened at this place,
took place near the Railroad offices
ON Tuesday afternoon, about FIVE
o'clock.
The victim was David Kennedy, a
native of Ireland, quite advanced in
wears, but vigorous, industrious
man. There were two engines
about passing him, on different tracks,
one backing and the other going for
forward. Kennedy was looking par
ticularly at the one going forward,
and inadvertently stepped on the
track right before the tender of the
engine that was backing. The en-
rineer could not see him, and the
tender struck him, knocking him
down, and running over his leg length
wise. from the ankle to the hip, crush
inc and mangling it terribly. He
lived but a few minutes after the
occurrence. DR.. Burlington was call
cd 10 see him, but it was impossible
to do anything for him. 1t was
thought the shock to his system was
the immediate cause of his death,
but it would have been impossible to
save his life, as the whole leg and
thigh were crushed, and amputatiOn
could not have been performed above
the injured parts.
Mr.. Kennedy was employed to
take care of the passenger cars at the
depot. He was very industriou;
and careful man, trusted and popular
amongst all the oflcerS ana eniP'oSe'
of the company.
He leaves wife and six children,
three of whom are almost helPles:
from disease.
His funeral takes place to day a
! II o'clock.
Mr.. Kennedy formerly lived a
Covington, Ky.
A subscription for the rellef o.
INr. Kennedy's family was started Oh
Tuesday evening, and up to -" ednes
day evening over $3.50 had been re
ceived. The paper is with l.; Mr.. Jen
