TIE UNITED STATES AND
MEXTn0

Senior Mata, accredited by Presi-
dent Diaz as Mexican Minister to the
United States, is about to return
home, having been denied recogni-
ton by our government. This denial
has not been peremptory, but has
found expression in the systematic
ignoring of Senior Mata's pretensions
and a studied avoidance Of the sub
ject in official circles. Discouraged
by this peculiar treatment, which he
has experienced during term of
four months, the representative of
the Diaz government has decided to
withdraw to his own country. We
confess that the policy of the admin
itsration relative to Mexican affairs
is to us profound mystery. Why
recognition should be refused the es-
tablished and unquestioned govern
ment of our neighboring Republic,
after its ability to enforce it's authori-
ty, and its disposition to cooperate
in the suppression of border raids
have been demonstrated beyond
cavil, is question to which we
should like to have a satisfactory an
swer.

The Duke de Montpensier, whose
daughter the young King Alfonso is
soon to marry, Is very unpopular in
Spain; and to obviate the i'll feeling
that might otherwise be caused among
the people by the marriage, it has
been arranged that the Duke will
quit Spain Immediately after the nup
tials are celebrated. There's a model
father-in-law! It isn't every man
who would consent so amiabiy Co be-
ing made football of, to be kicked
around to suit the convenience of his
daughters husband. But, of course,
it isn't every man who has the oppor-
tunIty of marrying his daughter to a
crowned head.

Worms and storms have damaged
the cotton crop of Vermilion parish
fifty per cent. Intelligence from the
other cotton growing parishes is
scarcely more cheering, and the an
ticipation of a profitable yield which
was INDUCED early in the season has
been wofully disappointed. Those
planters who depended upon cotton
to reward their years labor, to the
exclusion of corn and potatoes, will
have hard row to hoe.

We stand at lifes west windows,
And think the years that have gone;
Remembering the coming sunset,
We too must remember the morn;
But the sun will set, the day Will close,
And an end will come TO all our woes.
As we watch from the western easements,
Reviewing our happy youth,
We mourn for its vanished promise
OfhonOr ambition and truth;
But the hopes will fail and pride decay,
When we think how soon we must away.
We stand at life's west windows,
And turn not sadly away,
To watch on our chiidren's faces
The noontide of sparkling day.
But our sun must set, our lips grow dumb,
And to look from our windows our children
come.
Still looking from life's west windows,
And we know we would not again
Look forth from the eastern lattice,
And live over all lies pain;
Though life's sunrise be brilliant its sunset Is
sweet,
Since IL brings long-for rest to our weary
feet
