BAroNEr RULE IN New JERsEY.-The
Trenton State Gazette gives the following neat
little caricature Of the prevailing style Of
Democratic editorials on Louisiana .
It wont do for the Democrats of New Jer-
sey to talk about bayonet rule in Louisiana
any more after the display of military in and
about Taylor Opera House at the Governors
inauguration yesterday. The soldiers with
fixed bayonets strictly guarded every avenue
OK approach to the hall SO rigidly, in fact,
that even members and officers of the Legis-
lature could scarcely pass the glittering and
memorable array of steel. Bayonets bristled
oil over the hall, and guaided every door and
passage way, so that one attempting to pass
in any direction found himself confronted and
stopped by soldiers with crossed bayonets.
The members of the Legislature the Cover
nor elect, the dignitares of the State, all had
to pass through this martial array. Only
those having passes could have access to the
Legislature in session in the Opera House, so
that the people of sovereign State were de-
barred by fixed bayonets and resolute soldiers
from having any intercourse with their repre-
sentatives. So far as the people of this
sovereign State could know tho Republican
minority inside the hall might have been
usurping the functions Of the majority, and
inaugurating Mr. Halsey Governor Of the
State. We really trust that the Democratic
press of the State will rebuke in fitting terms
OF indignation this outrageous assault upon
the privileges of sovereign State this bayonet
rule, this work of the tyrant and the despot.
Let indignation meetings be called at once.
Let the tocsin Of liberty be sounded, and An
drew Jackson Smith cry 8" What Ho |" from
Freedoms embattled towers.

Blistering an Editor in his Sleep.

During our late Editorial Convention a
gentleman was taken quite sick at the
Yorboro' House, in Raleigh, and sent IN
post-haste after Dr.. The doctor was
soon on hand, and pronounced his disease
acute Inflammation of the stomach and
bowels, and said nothing would givemoie
certain and speedy relief than blister.
The office boy, Wiley, was hastily dis
patched'for the panacea, with directions
to hurry up and get it, and be very quiet
and gentle in putting it over the stomach
and bowels of the gentleman in room, No.
40. In less than twenty minutes the boy
returned and went to 4S, where he found
our editorial friend quietly sleeping and
dreaming of the many calls he had made
during theday, and the lots of good things
he had eaten and drank in going the
rounds AS gently as if he was handling
a babe, Wiley softly spread the blister
over the abdomen of our soundly sleep
ing, innocent friend. All well so far.
Next morning, between nine and ten
o'clock, Mr. came down to breakfast,
and taking aside mine host he quietly in
quired, "Was sick last night, or what
was to pay?" II don't know" said Black
nall. Dr. was here about nine
o'clock to see some one." "Well, it must
have been me, and he has played the dick
ems with one of his Internal blisters. He
put one on me as big as towel, and let
it stay until nine o'clock this morning.
must have been awful sick, out of my
head, or much excited in some way, as |
hardly recollect seeing the doctor. The
remedy was forty times worse than the
disease, and has blistered so deep that it
will take all the summer to get WE'LL"
Here the conversation ended. Pretty
soon Die calls to see his patient, and
finding him no better, and no blister hav-
ing been applied, he comes down to the
Office much provoked, and inquired sharp
ly, "Why was not the blister put on the
gentleman in room No 4S, as directedl'
"Why, Doctor" said the host, 81 gave
Wiley the prescription myself and the
money to pay for it, and more than that
have seen Mr-(the editor Of who
roomed last night in 48. and take my
word for it, he is the best blstered man
ever saw" At this the doctor hurriedly
took from his pocket his memorandum,
and exclaimed, "Good heavens! it should
have been in room No. SO instead OF 4S.'
Just at this stage of the game up walked
Mr., who was introduced to DR..
They quickly retired to one corner of the
room, and with many apologies, with bows
and smiles, the doctor said, ga large hop
and mush poultice put on to-day with
linen rag creased with mutton suet, will
give you relief"
Dogs take your poultices and greasy
rags! l want something to bring the
skin back on my stomach just as you
found it; and there will be trouble if it
isn't done"
Exit DR. amid loud cursings of doc
tors, blisters, and hotel-keepers.-Raleigh

HOUSEHOLD.
Conversation.

Among home amusements the best is
the good old habit of conversation, the
talking over the events of the day, in
bright and quick play of wit and fancy,
the story which brings the laugh, and the
speaking the good and kind and true
things, which all have in their hearts. 1t
is not so much by dwelling upon what
members of the family have in common,
as bringing each to the other something
interesting and amusing, that home life
is to be made cheerful and joyous. Each
one must do his part to make converse
ton congenial and happy. We are too
ready to converse with newspapers and
books, to seek some companion at the
store, hotel, or clubroom, and to forget
that home is anything more than place
to sleep and eat in. The revival of con-
versation, the entertainment of one an
other, as roomful of people will enter
tain themselves, is one secret of happy
home. Wherever it is wanting, disease
has struck into the root of the tree; there
is want which is felt with increasing
force as time goes on. Conversation in
many cases is just what prevents many
people from relapsing into utter selfish
ness at their firesides. This conversation
should not simply occupy husband and
wife, and other older members of the
family, but extend itself to the children.
Parents should be careful to talk with
them, to enter into their life, to share
their tri1es, to assist in their studies, to
meet them in the thoughts and feelings of
their childhood. tits great step in edu
cation, when around the evening lamp are
gathered the different members of a large
family, sharing their occupations with one
another, the older assisting the younger,
each one contributing to the entertain
ment of the other, and all feeling that
the evening has passed only too rapidly
away. This is the truest and best amuse
ment. 1t is the health education of great
and noble characters. There is the free
dom, the breadth, the joyousness of natu-
raj life. The time spent thus by parents,
in the higher entertainment of their chill
dren, bears harvest of eternal blessings,
and these winter evenings furnish just the
time.-Churchmdn.
