when the condition Of nativity was pend
ing Mr.. Eustis voted to strike it out.
Even the journal from which we have
quoted is distinguished example of the
loss which Louisiana would have sus-
tanned by excluding New Englanders from
the high trust of conducting the public
press. With the high boast Of South
ern home institution of forty years stand
ing, would not stranger be astonished
to learn that the Picayune has never had
native Southern editor, save under the
transient term required to bring it to the
sheriff's hammer in 1874? Yet it is true
that with that short and disastrous ex-
ception the Picayune has been conducted
since its foundation under the editorial
direction of men born and reared all the
way from Vermont down to Connecticut.
1t is to the judicious direction of such
men that this home institution was en-
abled to survive all other English jour-
mails, and even the war itself Every one
appreciated the prudent, temperate and
respectable tone of the PicGyune, and
every one regretted the loss Of the saga
cious journalist who had been for so
many years at its head. ..
To foment such prejudices for the sake
of political popularity is in itself an error.
It affects the interests of society in seri.
Gus degree, as has been unhappily the
experience of Louisiana. The Demo-
cratic politicians experience no such diff
Guilty as suggested by Mr.. Eustis, and
maintain" with enthusiasm candidate
from Connecticut.
The effect, however, of this intolerance
has been to divide the country as before
the war. They have entertained the
futile expectation of uniting the whole
South without arraying the whole North.
In an age Of free speech and instantane-
Gus publication, it has been impossible
to effect this sectionalism on one side
without a similar aggrayation on the
other. Let the Rhetts and McEnerys
lead up with the stars and bars flying and
the fife and drums playing 'ln Dixie's
land I'll take my stand, and as if by
electricity they will see the grand old flag
with its armament of diamond stars, and
without bar across its ever broadening
folds given to tie wind, while the national
anthem will resound from ocean to ocean
and reverberate from the most remote
islands of the habitable globe.
The prejudice of race and section has
done infinite injury to the Southern
people, and unless it be discarded will
band against them condemnation that
must operate continually against every
effort to improve their condition.

THE LAST SHOT.

Near Dilworth Corner, at the time
of the Revolution, there stood quiet
cottage somewhat retired from the
road, under the shade of a stout ches-
nut tree. 1t was quiet cottage, nest
ling away there in the corner of the
road, dear home in the wilderness,
with sloping roof, walls of dark gray
stone, aud a easement hidden among
vines and flowers.
Here, at the time of the Revolution,
there dwelt a young blacksmith, his
young wife and her babe. What cared
the blacksmith, working away in that
shadowy nook of the forest, for war
What cared he for the peril of the
times. so long as his strong arm, ring
ing that hammer on the anvil, might
gain bread for his wife and child?
All, he cared little for war, he took
little note of the panic that shook the
valley, when, some few mornings before
the battle of Brandy wine, while shoe
ing the horse of Tory refugee, he
overheard plot for the surprise and
capture of Washington. The Ameri-
can leader was to be luredint the tolls
of the Tories his person once in the
British camp, the English general
might send the Traitor Washington"
home to be tried in London.
Now our blacksmith working away
there in that dim nook of the forest,
without caring for battle or war, had
still a sneaking kindness for this Mis-
ter Washington whose name rang on
the lips of all men. So one night, bid
ding his young wife hasty good by,
lrrs No hnh n hnN
her bosom, smiling as it slept, he hur-
RED away to the American camp, and
told his story TO Washington.
1t was morning when he came back.
1t was In the dimness of the autumnal
morning, that the blacksmith was plod-
ding his way along the forest road.
Some few PAGES ahead there was an
aged oak, standing out into the road
grim old veteran of the forest, that
had stood the shock of three hundred
years. Right beyond that oak was the
blacksmith : home.
With the thought warming his heart.
he hurried on. He hurried on, think
ing of the calm young face and mild
blue eyes of that wife. who the night
before had stood in the cottage door
waving him out of sight with a heck
oDed good -by-thinking of the babv
that Law smiling as it slept upon her
hosom' he hurried on-he turned the
ben5 of the wOOd-he looked upon his
home.
Where the night before he had left
peaceful cottage, smiling under a
green chestnut tree in the light of the
Setting sun, now was only 9, heap of
SIset and smoking embers, and a burnt
and blasted tree. ,,..L.,,;.,
n mon that wreck of his hearthstone
lng he stood with folded arms aud
moodv brow; but in a moment a
smile broke over his. face. a. -.
He saw it all. In the nlgn1 MS

by consent of the directors in the two
adjoining districts.
In answer to Messrs. John Rollins
and 0. B. Wright, citizens of Alexan-
dria, DeKalb county, Col. Trousdale
thus sums up in a nutshell the laws
with regard to vacancies in district
directorships:
l. County superintendent should
appoint where there IS failure to hold
an election, and his appointee holds
for the whole term of three years. In
case of vacancies caused by death, re-
moval or resignation, the remaining
directors appoint, and their appointee
will hold the remaining term of the
director whose vacancy has been filled.
2. No election for director is valid
except the one held at the time pre-
scribed by law, the first Monday in
August.
