or not in his views, he must now
retire from the field. As for our
part we believe he has been sincere;
and, ifso, he is pardonable, though
he has lost his authority to teach or
to lead. When the fortunes Of
England were at a very low ebb and
her armies and navies had every
where been beaten, a British squad
ron came upon a French feet, near
the coast, in q severe gale. Not
withstanding the tempest, Hawke,
the commander Of the squadron,
determined at all hazards to engage
the French fleet. The pilot told
him the attack could not be made
without the greatest danger. "You
have done your duty in remon.
strating," answered Hawke; II will
answer for the rest" The result
was a complete victory: If Mr.
Leonard's warning to the people
was sincere, then he has done his
duty in uttering his remonstrance

Joaquin MILLER says in bis new
book: "The most mournful sight to
me is that Of an Englishman driving
in Hyde Park for pleasure. He sits
as if he was bolstered up in bed, and
his physician was feeling his pulse.
He is SO stiff that you might imagine
him chiseled from some sort of very
ugly stone, hat and all You had
almost as we'll expect to sec grena-
dier guardsman lift his bearskin cap
as to see an Engl,shman's hat move
from his head, unless royal person
age appears, while he takes this
mournful round in the great ride OF
the kingdom. The marble head OF
Julius Cesar is about as likely to
fall from the shoulders Of the bust in
the British museum, as is the head
j of an Englishman to turn to tn
, right or to the left as he sits there
holding his hands SO stifly, looking

THE TWO WORKERS.

Two workers in one field
Toiled on from day to day.
Both had the same hard labor,
Both had the same small pay;
With the same blue sky above,
The same green grass below,
One soul was full Of love,
The other full of woe. alal,
One leaped up with the light,
With the soaring Of the lark,
One felt it ever night, II. 81
For his soul vas ever dark;
One heart was hard as stone,
One heart was ever gay; ~
One worked with many a groan,
One whistled all the day.
One had a f1ower-clad cot
Beside merry mill,
Wife and children near the spot
Made it sweeter, fairer still;
One a wretchcd hovel had,
Full of discord, dirt and din,
No wonder he seemed mad,
Wife and children starved within
Still they worked in the same field,
Toiled on from day to day,
Both had the same hard labor,
Both had the same small pay;
But they worked not with one will,
The reason let me tell
Lo, the one drank at the still,
And the other at the we'll.

The Peoples Party.

MIR. A. II. Leonard, OF CaQdO, mas
written a very long letter to the
Shreveport Times, in which he as
sails the Democratic party as an il
liberal, reactionary, impracticable
and proscriptive party, and proposes
the organization ola Peoples party
(which shall absorb the Democratic
and all other Conservative parties,
and draw to its support a large num-
Der of white and black Republicans"
We have read Mr.. Leonard's letter
with great care. He has been our
longtime friend. He has been an
untiring worker in the cause of Lous
isiana, and has devoted much time,
and given much money to the long
struggle against Radicalis'n. There
is no man in the State more entitled
to fair and unprejudicel hearing
and judgment at the hands OF his
fellow citizens than Mr.. Leonard
and there is no man in the State who
, is more disposed to believe him hon
est and right, or whom it can more
deeply grieve to pronounce a judy
ment of condemnation against hin
than the editor Of this paper. 70
months past, however, it has seeme'
to us that this gentleman, honore'
and trusted by the people Of North
west Louisiana, has been drifting il
a dangerous direction, and his lette

a deplorable condition, nor even

troubles. He even admits that Il

The Triumph Of Beauty.

She didn't care a duff SO she said
whether she pleased masculine eyes
or no. But she always looked pref
ty, and got out Of bread baking and
dish washing on every conceivable
pretext, and she wouldn't scrub, nor
get up early in the morning to smile
at her brothers over the coffee pot,
and she always put her hair up in
papers over night, so as to look pref:
ty in the morning, and, oh, my, she
did lots of things that are too dread
full to tell here, to make herself pref
ty. She leased her papa for money,
and got it, too, and locked every
thing she wanted from her brothers
and got all the presents from gentle
men that she could, and then what
do you think; why, she got the only
good. sensible one there was among
them at last. She had her carriage
and everything she wanted, and did
lust as she wss mind to, was petted
and caressed by her husband and hu,
mored by every one, and forgot al
about her poor relations, which was
strange. When her mother died she
cried a little and said: "Well, poor
mother, she had outlived her useful
ness" and sent her father some mon
: ey to pay the funeral expenses, anf
wore black, and considered her dnt!
done. Happy woman!
