Tho Third Term.
lBossier Banner. Louisiana.

tBossier Banner. louisiana
"The increasing opinion in favor of
u "third term " is very marked. There
Is no more advocacy of the renolnna-
ton Of Grant, perhaps, than has been
heard previously; but the number OF
those, both inside and outside govern
ment circles, who believe such an event
next year to be inevitable is rapidly
growing. A leading Republican from
Pennsylvania, who Is here, expresses
the opinion that unless the party
unitedly declare against third term
within the next thirty days, the renom-
ination OF Grant cannot be prevented;
but of course such IL declaration will
not be made. There is a very slowly
aggregating sentiment making Grant
the party candidate again next year.
The opinions of Grant himself do not
change in any quarter, nor Is there
evidence Of any increase OF his pop
ularity; but the exigencies Of the party
are forcing q recognition Of the third
term idea on Republicans who have
hitherto secuted 1t as at once absurd
and impossible. Boston Herald.
"But the exigencies Of the party are
forcing recognition OF the third term
idea." This Is the only cry. Exigen-
cies of the party" not OF the nation,
demand Grant for third term. None
of his supporters claims that the exigen-
cics of the nation demand any man for
a third term, much less President
Grant. Why this everlasting cxalta-
ton of party above country. LIS it
because there is closet OF skeletons
which the party is afraid may be
brought forth and exhibited to the
disgust Of honest people ? 1t looks
very like it. Are there no men in the
Republican party the equals Of Grant ?
Where is Morton, Butler, Blaine,
Jewell, Waite and Carpenter, each and
all his intellectual and executive peers?
III these will not do, the Democratic
party might consent to the nomination
of Charles Francis Adams, Gov. Tilden
or Gov. Hendricks, the equals oil any
man or men in the nation. Dry up this
croaking of the exigencies OF the party,
and tell MS of the necessity OF d strict
construction OF the Constitution and
the laws and the speedy and sure
punishment of government swindlerS
and defaulters, high or low. The people
will then believe that an honest effort
will be made to correct the abuses that
have crept into the administration OF
national affairs and may give the same
support to the dominant party that it
has in the past. The members OF both
parties must insist upon strict con-
struction and honest execution OF the
laws IL they expect to long maintain our
present form OF government.

A BOY 20 MONTHS OLD KILLED BY

Yesterday about o'clock, car No. al
OF tho Chippewa and Annunciation
street line ran over n little boy named
Christian Kern, 30 months old, at the
corner of Annunciatioh and Second
streets, killing him instantly, the hind
wheel passing over his skull. The child
was picked up by a colored boy and con-
veyed to the residence Of its parents,
No. 517 Annunciation streets.
The neighbors living in the vicinity,
and who saw the accident, attach no
blame to the driver.
Our reporter visited the driver, John
Coppersmith, at the Sixth Precinct, and
received the following statement:
The little fellow was playing in tho
street near the track when my car was
passing, and in attempting to catch on
the side Of the car stumbled, his head
falling ON the track between the wheels
on my left hand side, and the hind
wheel passing over and crushing his
skull before / knew he was even near
my car. / Immediately surrendered to
Officer Powell, who brought me to this
station.

NAKED FOR FoRrY YEARs.-Incred-
ible as the following may appear, SAYS
the Carleton Place Herald, it is an au.
tbentic fact to which hundreds can
bear testimony:
Abont forty years ago q young man
named Wilson, residing near the town Of
Perth, conceived the lunatic idea Of lead.
ing hermit's life. The youth had from
his early age showed symptoms Of de.
rangement, and this proceeding on bis
part was not considered strange by his
friends. The chosen place of his her.
mitage was about three quarters of q
mile from his parental homestead, in
the recess of dense bush, where he
erected small hovel, and furnished it
with an old log canoe, which he used
to sleep in. Divesting himself Of all
clothing be has ever since remained
perfectly nude, with the exception Of
q tattered remnant Of . shirt, which his
fancy leads him to retain. In this
nude state for fo,ty years he has lived,
walked in the depth Of winter through
the snow, and vet he has never been
known to have received . frost bite.
When he requires drink he walks de-
liberately into the river, it mattering
not to him what season of the year it
NAV be, and wades out till the water
reaches his waist, and then he stoops
and auenches bis thirst. His food is
brought to him bv his friends and when
given to him is eaten with the vora.
ciousness of all animal, which he now
resembles more than man, bis body
being as heavily coated with hair as
that Of a COW. He never shows n
dangerous disposition and chatters in
monosvllables. When people cross bis
path he invariably begs for tobacco.
for which he has an evident rartiality,
and in cbattering tones will utter "lac-
ca" until his request is granted. His
hair is long. gray, and unkempt. fall
