1t is reported here, that d body Of
forty or fifty of the vigilance from
Eermillion parish, made raid into
Cameron about ten days ago, and sur
rounded the house of one Yokum, at
night, and called on linn to surrender.
1t seems that there were two Yokums,
brothers, IN the house, and two or three
women. The Yokums saw no safety in
surrendering, and being not ready to
die themselves they went to work to
kill as many of their enemies as pos
sible. 1t is said that one of the chief
leaders of the vigilance was certainly
killed, and probably several others,
when the gallant band retreated, leav-
ing the Yokums alone in their glory.
Cameron being q little world off by
itself, news from it comes slowly, and
may not always be reliable. But from
what had already transpired there,
we are prepared to believe any re-
port of violence that comes from it.
The best thing for the legislature to
do at its next session is to abolish
that parish, and return it's component
parts to the parishes from which they
were taken.

Communicated

1t is astonishing how some malicious
persons will impose upon the innocent
credulity Of others and induce them to
say or write things which are absurd
ridiculous and mean on their face.
A most striking example of the kind
appeared in the Opelousas Courier OF
the 21st inst; in that editorial relative
to the election of Mr.. Chas. NJ. Thomp-
son as Constable of the town.
Is it possible that a l1an Of the intel
ligence Of the editor Of that paper could
bemade to ogoulp such a malicious lie,
and have him to publish it to the world.
No, it is not credulity, it is mischief,
ITO think that seven American citizens,
voted for and elected by the free and
Intelligent people of the town of Ope-
lousas, the parish seat of st. Landry,
called the imperial parish Of the State,
could be mean and contemplate enough
toiremove an officer elected by them
selves over year ago, for no other
reason, than that Mr.. John T. Healey,
the removed officer, " Did net give the
" right sort Of testimony before the
e congressional investigating committee
Z" in New Orleans last winter!n
But sir, it is actually splitting on the
face of the people of this community to
tell them that they intrusted the affairs
of the corporation in the hands of such

Last Monday, at Big Cane in this
parish, negro was lynched-hung-by
a mob of his own color, for having Eilled
his wife on account of intidelity. Sheriff
Duson has gone up there to MAKE ar
rests; and probably some of those en-
gagged il the lynching may learn that
such paStime is murder, for which,
when convicted, under Gov. Nichols
administration, he signs a warrant to
hang. Under Kellogg, some attempted
to justify lynching, because he would
not have convicted murderers hung
but it seems now that lynching must
be carried On for the love of the sport.
There is a law against such sport, and
if we are not greatly mistaken, Gov.
Nichols and our parochial authorities
will see it executed.

1t is said that Spain is preparing to
send 100000 troops to Cuba, in October
to replace those who have been killed
and died from disease. Spain would
do better to find another island and
t'olonize it with her surplus population,
ms, +ead OF sending them to Cuba to kill
and b.E killed. A woman was recently
convict. ID by an English jury of pub
fishing nm, immoral book, the object of
which was to show or propose some
plan to prey, snt too many births or too
great an incre ase of population among
the poor. This was immoral and the
woman was puni. shed for it. The plan
of the civilized GO v6rnments OF chris
tendon, for preventing too great an
increase of population is not immoral
and it is certain. After the poor have
struggled and labored and suffered TO
raise their male children, these govern
ments take them as food for powder
1t is immoral and criminal to teach the
poor how not to have more children
than they can support and educate, be-
cause such knowledge might interfere
with the noble and highly moral pastime
of war. The wicked female who made
an illegal and immoral effort to spread
such knowledge-how to prevent too
many births-eviderltly thought that
children had better never be born, than
to be used for the purpose that Spain I
sends her troops annually to Cuba" to
fill the gaps caused by disease and
DEATH among those who have gone
before them.

Flip's done come hOme!n was the
tamlllar and yet admiring manner in
| which tire Young negroes about town
yesterday spread the information that
Second Lieutenant Henry 0. FlipDer
of the tenth cavalry and the first
c0lOred graduate of the United States
Military Academy at West Point, had
arrived His coming has created quite
a sensation in col0red circles and when
he appeared upon the streets last
evening taking drive with his de-
lighted father, he was the cynosure of
all the colOred people and the object of
curiaus glances from the whites. In
t9e lyjlitary academy he has had the
toughest four years experience that
any cadet has ever undergone, but he
had patience, good sense and determina-
ton, and he conquered. Despite the
antagOnism of such blue blooded ahOli-
ton sciOns as Ben. Buffers son,
Blgel0W's son and u host of others, he
held his own and when he was required
to pass the most rigid examination
(concocted with an evident intention to
- freeze him out'') he was found to have
braced himself for the issue, and he
came through with success.
" Dat's him !" said dozen of the
curious darkeys who stood off and
hadn't the honor Of the youths acuuain-
tanee. They seemed to feel lonesome.
:" He's one of de United States Ca
zettes y shouted a young darley, in
reply to query from strange negro
who has moved here since Flipper went
away.
But the young officer was speedily
spirited out Of the crowd and taken
home to his little bed for rest. On
the streets he was greeted by many of
our citizens who knew him and who
have watched his career with interest.
His success was complimented and he
was urged to pursue his course in the
same spirit hereafter Among his
colored friends he was a lion, and they
could not speak their praises in language
strong enough. A darkey would ap-
proach the young man, cautiously feel
of his buttons and clothes and enthu-
remark: Bad man wild de
gub'ment strops on!" These were the
expressions Of admiration that best
suited tho ideas of his delighted ac-
They will give him a re-
ception on Monday nigl5 next, at
which all his friends will be present,

will be invited to be present.

AN ITALIAN TRAGBDY.-Five years
ago young actress made the acquain-
tanee, in Italy, of a Prince of an old
Florentine Family. The young pair
became much attached to each other,
and when the Prince went to Paris he
passed much of his time in the w0man's
company. About six months ago the
Princes father died, after urging his
son to relinquish the society of the ae-
tress. The young man complied, and
Informed her that he could see her IN
future, but rarely. She was distressed,
but, finding him mistaken in his resolu-
ton appeared to acquiesce. A month
ago he returned to Paris, and she sent
a request that he would dine and pass
an evening with her. He accepted,
and, after dining, they drove to the
Bois de Boulogne. 0n1returning she
dropped her fan from the carriage, and
he alighted to recover it. AS he did
she fired two shots from revolver at
herself, one of which took effect in her
breast. She handed her lover, as he
stood in horror at her head, sealed
package, which he placed hastily in his
pocket, and then he turned his atten-
tlon to her. She was taken to his resi-
denGe, and at last accounts was in 4
high fever and unconscious. The pack
age was handed to the Commissary Of
the Police, and found to contain a let
ter expressing the impossibIlity of liv-
ing without his affection, and her de-
termination to die.

There seems to be general strike y
already begun and brewing, among the
railway employees in Maryland, Penn
sylvania, West Virginia and Ohio, caused
by some new regulation of doubling
the number of cars tooa train, which
would enable the railro! q companies to
dispense with the seryil es of half the
employees. The governors of some Of
the States, and the President, have is
sued proclamations against the strikers,
and militia and federal troops have
been ordered out against them. The
strikers blockade the railroads and stop
the cars from trimming. Fifteen hun-
dred cars loaded with freight, haye been
reported st6pped at Pittsburg, on ac-
count of the strike. A regiment of
troops was stoned and fired into, on the
Goth inst, in Baltimore, and several
persons wounded and killed.
Since writing the above we have had
further accounts of the strikes and riots
up North.
minersand whatare called work
ing men, including discontented la
borers OF all classes, have joined tile
railway strikers. Twenty-Five men
were killed in the fight at Baltimore,
on Friday of last week. The Governor
of Maryland made a requisition on the
president for troops.
m, militia fred On the strikers, at
pittsb,, vgh, last Saturday seven men
killad an. terrible excitement with the
citv II tIe i Nds of the rioters.
An Pittsbnr, sl, last Sunday, more
blood was shed, r6silroad buildings and
cars burned, and the soldiers besleged
iii the houses wheIe til 81 bad tahen re-
fuge, by the rioters. Th ey. sile miiitsla,
were finally driven from tie cry ana
all the railway buildings, cars eoataln7
ing freight, machinery, etc, were pli-
laged and burned. " When the last
building was fred, the whole territory |
between Seventh avenue and Millville
station, a distance of three miles, was q /
mass of fames.n In one building were
housed one hundred and twenty five first
class locomotives, which were destroyed
and this was a trihe In the aggregate
loss. The ears londed with freight were
plundered by the mobr-men, women
and children; and very few Of the railway
strikers were engaged in it. The latter
struck for higher or q non-reduction of
wages, and the former struck for the
plunder. Two thousand cars were
burned, belonging to the Pennsylvania
railroad, and damage done to the amount
OF $f0OOO,000 Forty or fifty persons
were killed at Pittsburgh, probably not
including fifteen wounded soldiers left
in the cellar OF a burning building from
which their organization bad been
driren--they were burned up. On Mon
day partial order was restored in Pitts
burgh, the strikers assisting the muni-
cipal authorities and citizens against
the thieves and plnnderers.
The dispatches state the government
III firm, and determined to have peace
at any cost, and there will hereafter be I,
no tenderness shown rioters. nor hesi-
tation in shedding blood, If necessary,
to accomplish tho purpbse.

Southern States are outside Of the
