and with me the fact remains that these
very instrumentalities have wrought for
me, (who call myself intelligent and cd

this I will briefly circumstantialiEe my

heavy cry-and in a few moments later
John Briggs lay at Polly's feet, dead
At least so il seemed to Polly: then
/ the sun went down and night came in a
moment, and there lay Polly in a swoon
on the dead mans breast But John
was not dead, or even much hurt, only
chilled to oinsensibilisy, and consciousness
! returned before any one had recovered
presence Of mind to remove Polly fro m
her resting place on his bosom.
Good gracious Pollys tainted r.
cried Susy Brown; run quick, some
body, and fetch some water"
The girls had rallied by this time and
crowded round Polly like bees round a
crocus bed in spring, and she was in dan
ger OF being killed with kindness, when
Simeon Brown rushed up with his cap
full Of icy water and dashed IL slap in
Polly's face. That walked her up in a
hurry-she gasped, opened her eyes, and
seeing the group OF frightened faces
about her asked: What's the matter p
Poor Polly she knew Immediately what
the matter was-she had made a fool Of
herself-and now everybody would know
that she was in love with John-with
Alice Browns loverl-oh, dear and TO
mend matters Polly began to cry.
Bat where is John Polly cannot see
him anywhere. Pollys senses had not
come back fully, it seemed. for she did
not know that she was repOsing quite
comfortably in Johns arm. Don't cry.

to take Polly home now, and you'd beat
be spry If you mean TO keep Christmas

gathered Polly up and carried her oil.
| suppose that Polly's mistake was rec
tilted on the way home, for there was a
wedding at Uncle Silas Briggs on Christ
mas Eve, on which occasion Aunt Debby
was heard to deliver herself after the
following characteristic manner:
You never kin tell till afterwards

OUR PARISH TICKET.

Bossier has now her ticket in
the field-nominated with a una
nimity that argues much for its
success. OF course some are
disappointed; which will always
be the case, as all aspirants can
not be nominated, and the
friends of the defeated candl-
dates will naturally feel a little
sore.
The ticket is a good one, and
starts into the canvass with
the endorsement of the De-
mocracy of Bossier, and it
now behooves every man to put
his shoulder to the wheel and
give the Parish, State and Ma
tional ticket, a strong, warm,
earnest and persistent support.
With proper effort, well directed,
even Radical-ridden Bossier can
be redeemed and disenthralled,
and in futherance of that end,
let US make "a long pull, a
strong pull, and a pull altogeth
err" and when the battle is
fought and the victory won, We
will send up a shout that will
wake the echoes on our lakes
and bayous, and throughout oul
borders, in sweet music to ou1
ears.
