affairs was never more clearly shown
than in the light Of present Demo-

Now, if there is any word in the
English language that will describe
the cool impudencc, the etfrontry, the
shameless holiness of such para

confess we are unacquainted with it.

of National affairs for the last fifteen
years good, what in the name of all
that is holy would they call bad man.

proud to say, were never before in

Weather aid Crops.

From all parts of the parish comes
the gratifying intelligence that the
"crops are good" particularly the
corn. Gentlemen TIL rs they have
not had sucl, corn since the war. AL
though in some localities there has
been too much rain, yet the corn IS
very promising and tie stand OF cot
ton reported perfect though grassy
in some places. This could not oe
avoided, whereas We heard one plan
ter remark he chad twenty-seven
separate and distinct showers in four
days" Another said the Bart Able
could have found water sufficient to
float her all ovcrhis field.' Notwith-

crop prospects are tattering, and

The greatest event of the season
will be the exhibition at this place Of
MABIE'S GREAT CIRCUS, on Mon
day JUNE 10Th. This is no one horse
side. show, but a mammoth circus re-
quiring q special train of cars to trav.
81. 1t deviates in attraction from the
usual stereotyped exhibitions. 1t pre-
sents more instructive and moral en-
tertai0ment, more rare specimens of
curious birds and beasts, and more
special and exclusive novelties than
any other exhibition in tile country.
The managers of this exhibition
avoid as much as possible the old and
well.worn rusts 50 generally travelled
by other exhibitions, who visit US
year after year with the same enter
taiument, seldom or ever giving us
novelty, while Mabie's GREAT Lon
DON CIRCUS introduce to the public,
features that are new and unusually
attractive. Most of tie animals in
the Menagerie department are new
to this country, and the most rare and
savage natural history gives account
Of. The performers, are everywhere
| recognized as stars of the first magni'
tude, and the company combine more
talent, skill, daring and dexterity
than any other exhibition.
Remember that great pains will bt
taken to please everybody, old and
young. Comfortable seats furnished
Plenty of fan, music and light.
Two performances will be giver
| MONDAY June 10Th.
We have performing monkeys in
our town but none equal those which
will be seen at the Mammoth Londol
Circus and Mcnagerie.
Let everybody attend the grandes
exhibition of the age.

the State, and particularly in this
parish, as we'll as those where large
negro majorities, and consequent Re-

hue and cry of "mob law, violence

whites. As we approach the time of

The most intense articles against

publicity to nearly all that the most

It is painful for us to announce
the suspension Of that sterling
journal, the Democrat, Of New Or
leans. It was becoming a power
in this State, and our people will
sadly miss its cheering words du-
ring this campaign.
No other paper in the city held
the popularity Of the Democrat
with the masses, for it was Of such
tone and ability as to command
their confidence. We are sorry
to say, that no other journal in
New Orleans represents the mass
es now, save the Bee. This sus
pension, therefore, is serious Loss
