The HAppIEsr SEASON OF LIFE.-A
venerable man of eighty having been
asked, Which is the happiest season
of life? thus answered the question !:
When Spring comes, and under the
influence of the gentle warmth of the
atmosphere, the buds commence to
show themselves and turn into flowers,
I think in myself, Oh, what beautiful
season is Spring! Then when Summer
comes and covers the trees with foliage,
where the birds are SO happy singing
their pretty songs, | say to myself
Oh, Summer is a fine thing! Then
when Autumn arrives, and l see the
same trees laden with the finest and
most tempting fruits, cry out, Oh.
how magnificent is Autumn! And,
finally, when the rude and hard Winter
makes its appearance. and there are
neither leaves nor fruits on the trees.
then. through the naked branches l
look upward and perceive better than
l could ever do before, the splendid
stars that glitter in the sky,-Fron' the

on the Presidency.

WASHINGTON, March 1S, 1876.
Dear Sir Il have your letter re-
questing for publication the views ex-
pressed by me in a recent conversation
with respect to the pending Presidential
contest. The sum Of them was that
we ought to continue the contest as We
began in 1872. when we agreed to fore
90 all other issues save that of reform
in the administration Of the Govern
ment. The adversary then struggled
and still strives, with the help Of the
Hon. Ben. Hill. to keep alive the issues
Of the war for the purpose of prolong-
ing abuses which, however great, 90
unchecked while sectional strife holds
the public mind We did not carry the
elections in 1872, because we were not
fully successful in making the issue Of
reform. But We made such begin
ming that the victory Of our adversaries
has proved barren one. We so far
succeeded that show Of investigation
bad to be made. The Credit Mobilier
fraud, which. though we'll known before
to all public men, could not command
public attention. now absorbs it. Spoil
alton was checked. Jay Cooke & Co. q,
who had largely advanced the money to
carry the elections, could not be reim-
bursed by Congressional Endorsement of
the Northern Pacific Railroad bonds,
and therefore failed. The so-called in
vestigating committees, organized not
to convict, were experts in finding out
how not to do it. and the Departments
helped them assiduously; but the In
dependent Press did the work so effect
ually that large Democratic majority
was returned to the present House Of
Representatives. Unfortunately this

Curran's Ingenuity.

A farmer attending fair with hun

caution of depositing the money in the
hands of the proprietor Of the public
house at which he stopped. Having
occasion for it shortly afterwards. be
resorted to mine host for payment. But
the landlord, too deep for the country
man, wondered what he meant, and was
quite sure no such sum had ever been
lodged in his hands by the astonished
rustic. After Intellectual appeals to the
recollection. and finally to the honor of
Bardolph, the farmer applied to Curran,
for advice.
"Have patience, my friend" said the
counsel; "speak to the landlord civilly
tell him you have left your money
with some other person. Take friend
with you, and lodge with him another
hundred in the presence Of your friend.
and come to me-"
He did so, and returned to his legal
friend.
"And now I can't see how 1 am 60
ing to be any better off for this, if 1

But how is that to be done ?"
"Go ask him for it when he is alone, F"
said the counsel.
"Aye, sir. asking won't do I am
afraid without my witness. at any rate. "
"Never mind take my advice" said
the counsel; "do as bid you. and re-
turn to me-"
The farmer returned with bis hun
dred glad to find that safely in bis
possession.

don't see that I am much better off,"

take your friend along With you,
and ask the landlord for tho hundred

him."
We need not add that the willy land
lord found he had been taken off his
guard. while our honest friend returned
to thank his counsel exultingly with
both hundred in his pocket.

down by the Democrats, who held for
State rights, and said Congress had
no right to interfere with what be-
longed to Louisiana. At that time
the levees did not extend above Bed
river. The judge reminded the
meeting that now the magnitude of the
work renders it impossible for the State to
build the levees, and even if we had our
levees built We could not keep them in
repair. Running through so many States,
through the grandest agricultural sections
of our country, the care of the
great river which sweeps past our
homes becomes work of national
importance, to the end that safe and
uniform levee system may be secured.
In the opinion of Judge Ray, the value Of
property along the course of the river
would increase over slCO, 600, 900, and
taxation would materially diminish if we
could obtain a proper levee system.
The benefit would come home to farmers,
merchants and laborers.
The committee, in accordance with the
resolution, will be announced Wednesday
evening, when the next regular meeting
will be held. It is expected that General
L. Sewell will then address the Southern
Republicans on affairs of public impor-
lance.

THE PROPOSED RAILROAD TAX

With delinquent tax list which foots
up more than four million dollars, it is
now proposed to lay an additional tax on
city property to aid in the construction of
the Texas and Pacific railroad. This is
not only unwise as q measure to promote
the success Of the great enterprise, but
improper, because it will saddle an addi-
tional burden upon shoulders which are
now scarce able to stand up under the
load A general tax upon all city prop
arty to buy road for the convenience
perhaps Of all, and the profit of a
very limited number Of the communi-
ty, is such q forcible diversion of
private means as to justify the most
earnest protests. In rare cases, perhaps,
