ENTERPRIsE.-A New Jersey COM

London and Liverpool markets with
American beef at the present rate of
$4,000 per trip, each shipment to

struction specially designed for car
rying this freight and this amount

success and satisfactory to the con-
tracing parties on both sides Of the

o'clock the Fire Department move,
with all their family furniture, to
their new building on Third Street,
back of the Town Hall. The family
furniture consists of the fine Engine
and Hose-carriage Of Pacific Fire

Hook and Ladder Company, and all
the useful sundries Of these two
efficient and complete companies.
They will move to their new home
in full uniform, and our fellow

give che fire-boys free and friendly
chat, and we have no doubt they
will be heartily welcomed all around.

THE PINEyILLE WARD MEETING.

At a meeting of the citizens of
Pineville Ward, held on the 26th day
of August, who on account Of the tur-
bulence at Breedlove's Warehouse,
withdrew therefrom for the sake OF
peace and order, and met at Turner's
Hall for the purpose of electing dele
egates to the Parish Democratic
Conservative Convention. Mr.. G.
w. Bolton was called to the chair,
and after stating the object of the
meeting, was made permanent chair
man, and A. Jarreau Secretary.
On motion a Committee of three
was appointed by tho Chair to draft
resolutions. The following were ap
pointed: B. Turner, L. G. Hunter and
A. A. Goodwin, to which committee,
on motion, the Chairman was added.
After a recess of a few minutes, the
following resolutions were reported,
and unanimously adopted and signed
by all voters present.
RESOLUTIONS = SIGNATURES:
Resolved, That we regret the ne
cessity which compelled us to leave
the meeting held at Breedlove's
Warehouse, and we did so because of
the manifest injustice displayed by a
turbulent faction which took from
US the right to be heard in our polit-
ical affairs. That we condemn as
grossly unjust, when upon question
Of how the vote should be taken, the
said faction permitted to be counted
in their favor, men and minors not
entitled to vote at the Ward meet
ing, and when upon our calling the
attention of the Chair to the fact, and
asked reconsideration Of the vote,
the clamorous faction would not al
low the chairman to put the motion.
Resolved, That for the sake ofhar-
mony, we respectfully request the
Parish Democratic Convention to ad-
nit our delegates as being the true
representatives of the people Of this
Ward.

The Fact.

ored clergyman of Ohio, is getting
disguised with Radicalism, and gets
off the following as relief to that
disgust. Read it, colored men Of
Rapides:
"The Republican party never in.
tended to emancipate the slaves; and
hundreds ofDemocrats fought grand.
" beside Republicans to save the
Union, not the slaves. And if the
Rebel States had taken the benefit oil

proclamation and laid down their
arms, slavery would have been in ex'
istence to-day. I quote from Mr.
Lincoln's letter to A. G. Hodges
April 4, 1854: ~ claim not to have
controlled events; but confess plainly
that events have controlled me-"
"The Republican party has made
the negro voter the 'hewer Of wood
and drawer of water He has been

unholy altar of their ambition fol

Thar remarkable young man,
who answers to the name Of Henry
G. Warmoth, has written letter,
on DIT, to some one in New Orleans,
hauling down his colors as regular
Radical candidate for Congress.
There must be something in this,
for we know that the best political
thermometer in the State, Efangham
Lawrence, has declared for Tilden
and Nichols. We think that's the
milk in Warmoth's cocoa-nut.

from this State will interest you,
I write:
In the FIRST place the canvass is

thusiastic and determined, and the
old war spirit is thoroughly aroused;
and if it not were for one thing We
could rest, certain Of victory in Octo.
ber. THERE'S an Independent party
in this State, confined, it is true, to q
few counties, but formidable, and it
will defeat Gen. Harrison. There is
but one way to overcome this move
ment. The leaders of the Indepen-
dents are poor, needy and in debt
They must be lectured. Let docu-
ments be placed in their hands that
they may be convinced Of their folly.
A bloody shirt campaign with money
and Indiana is safe; a financial cam
paign and no money and we are
beaten. -
The National Committee has done
nothing for Indiana. Alone they are
fighting their battles, and brayely,
but unless the National Committee
wakes up and does it's duty to you,
to the party and the country, defeat
is certain in October. never in all
my life felt 80 certain that / was do

my desire for success, my dear sir,
is my only excuse for writing you.
