where he says he don't want to 60

suppose VIM wants him any more

talking of the name and record, and

more heartily and who stuck to them
more closely through thick and thin,

LOUISIANA DEMOCRAT? Our record

that has nothing to do with the ques-

Our Agents.
Our Fav0rite.

Great chagrin was groaned out,
one day last week, among a few of
our Town folks and traders that the
independent steamer, John !. Moore,
failed to come to advertised time,
and that chagrin was groaned with
o tiger when it was ascertained
that she had fukered and would not
come at all. We are uncharitable
enough to believe, and allow this be
lief to be put in type, that pro bono
publiCo was not much mixed up in
the affections of our groaners, but
that they were thinking alone OF
"poor SELF" and wanted their little
buds brought to Alexandria for next
to nothing, not caring continental
persimmon whether anybody else
starved or prospered, or in fact even
if our. favorite Packet, the Bart.
Able, should dip her colors to
their selfish aims, and the balance Of
the appreciative public be deprived
of decent steamboating.
AS we have preached, time and
again, the public of the Grand Ecore
trade are really fortunate in having
q real steamboat, q side-wheel steam
boat, first-class steamboat in this
trade as a Weekly Packet. Her &C.
commodations and facilities are I'M
surpassed, competent and skillful
officers manage her, and "no rats"
can, under any circumstances, tramp
her decks as officers and crew, and
her charges are legitimate and cheap
as the times can afford it, and spe-
cial pride is always taken to keep
her to the mark of perfection at all
times and under all pressure. We
feel and know that our best mer-
chants, traders, planters and the de-
cent public here accord this to Cap
tain Sinnott and his fine boat, and
are still going to give him the
lions share of the business of this
trade.

SEVERAL days of last week have
been cold, very cold, but it has been
a dry, bracing cold. The few sugar
planters, who had failed to windrow,
have had to stop grinding; their
standing cane was frozen SO hard
that no juice could be obtained from
it. We tested three mornings of
this cold snap with our Thermome-
ter, and the following was the result:
on Saturday morning, at 6 o'clock, it
stood as low down as II, being two
degrees lower than our remembrance
in that line; on Sunday morning, at
the same hour, it marked 10, and on
Monday morning, at the same hour,
it moderated down to AZ.

THE steamer Lotus, the fine, me-

The steamer Lotus, the fine, new
steamboat, recently built for Captain
Dave Dannals and Joe Dodd, and
which was just going down, on her
second trip with full load of cot
ton, was burned to the waters edge
and completely lost, on last Saturday
evening about 2 o'clock. This sad
affair occurred nearly opposite the
little Town of Waterloo, in the Mis-
sissippi, about 155 miles above New
Orleans. The loss of lives is fright
full, no less than 80 persons being
burned and drowned. We learn
these sad particulars from the Off
GERS of the Bart. Able, Monday NOR
ming, who received their information
from Captain Danuals, at Bayou
Sara.

SINCE writing our article on the
School Board, we have received pro-
per and correct information giving
the public the reasons, and as we
now believe, correct reasons, for the
temporary suspension of the Schools.
The Secretary of the Board, Mr.. Ben
Turner, has courteously handed US
the proceedings of their last meet
ing,we cordially give them place in
our columns, and feel satisfied that
the Board, taking all into careful con-
sideration could not have acted 9th
erwise. Indeed, we are frank to con-
TESS that we can but approve their
course, and here assure them that
they will always find the DEMOCRAT
unfolding them in all such actions.
From first to last we have always
been the true and outspoken cham
pion and friend of the educational
wants and rights of our Parish, and
never will throw any obstacle in the
path of our present Board, but will
aid and cheer them on to the right.
Their advertisement, also, will be
found in the present issue; and we
are glad to know, and so inform par
ents here and in Pineville, that good,
secure and complete arrangements
have been perfected to keep Ethe
schools of Professors Waters and
Calvit, and the one of Mrs. Garfield
open and in complete scholastic rou-
tine and teaching. In fact, in these
three most excellent Schools, there
was no recess, but they went along
"happily and merrily'' Monday and
yesterday, and will SO continue. This
action of the Board is highly com
mendable, and we trust that parents
will bear it in mind, and give their
support to the Board now, more sol
idly than ever.

BUT Too TRUE.-In the following
short article, from a late number of
the New Orleans Times, there is
unhappily too much truth, and we
fear our reform rulers, on the whole
| line, are much to blame therefor.
and we, too, hope all hands will
strive, from this time out, to reform
in earnest: "Everlasting political
imbroglios have prevented any mate
rial and reformatory Legislation in
Louisiana for sixteen years. Our
statutes are in hopeless tumble
and the whole machinery for the
administration of justice and for the
conduct of our local governments
is out of repair, disjointed, costly,
cumbersome and in every way a
generation behind the times. The
simplifcation and reform of our
statute law and Of our judicial proce-
dure ought to be occupying the
best minds of the State in view of
the approaching session of the Leg
islature, which is expected to do the
work that has been left undone for
so many years. Let our lawyers try
to reduce the cost and delay of liti-
cation, so that merchants won't find
it cheaper 10 compromise at twenty
five cents on the dollar than to sue
perfectly sound debtor"

The Capitol-Square Walks.

We see that the Committee on the Public
Square and Public Buildings haveindicated
a purpose of moving upon the walks in the
Square. They would certainly do public
good by securing the proper improvement
of those walks. The rough gravel upon
them get loose in dry weather and make
them most uncomfortable, while in winter
they are often obstructed by mud. They
should either be paved with brick OF well
covered with metal, and arched so that they
would be permanently dry and agreeable to
the foot.
For the credit Of the State we hope that
our walks on the Square will be improved,
and make better impression upon the
traveller as to our public order, and at the
same time promote the comfort OF legis-
tors and other citizens. .,...1
