This evening an impressive scene

perhaps fifty, and marched around
the casket two or three times, the

On the 10th uIt. Miss LIZZIE l.

On the 10th ult. Miss Lizzie l.
Wlse, a niece of the great aero
naut. made an ascension in a
balloon from Grand Avenue
park, St. Louis, making voy-
age of about sixteen miles be-
fore landing. In her description
of the event she states that be-
fore she could land the balloon
night had overtaken her, and
u Is: "Now came the most try
ing of all my balloon experience.
/ could not see thing on earth,
and the Amazon made fearful
'plunges through the woods,
crashing and cracking the limbs
of the trees as it went along.
All Of sudden I was lifted up
several hundred feet above the
tree tops, but only to plunge
down more suddenly between
the tall trees, where the balloon
became hedged in, and I partly
made up my mind to. have a
nights lodging in the tree tops.
In another moment heard hu-
man voices, and l called out for
help, to which came the pleasant
response of, Where are YOU?
I cried aloud, up here in the
tree top. Help me down, if you
pleaxe. :" How shall [ help
you.t answered good Mr.. Chas.
Sheva. I.threw him a rope, and
he pulled as hard as he could,
but could not get the balloon low
enough for me to step down and
out. My car was now partly
bottom up, and I could plainly
see Mr.. Sheva below, when he
babe me slide down in his arms,
at the same time saying, i am
big and strong l slid down
head foremost into Mr.. Sheva's
arms, and thus reached the earth
unharmed."

HATE NOT.-Hate not. 1t is
not worth your while. Your
life is not long enough to make
it pay to cherish ill-wlll or hard
thoughts. What if this man has
cheated You, or that man has
played you false2 What if your
friend has forsaken you in time
Of need; or that one, having won
your utmost confidence, your
warmest love, has concluded that
he prefers to consider and treat
you as a stranger? Let it all
pass. What difference will it
make to you in a few years,
when you go to the undiscover-
ed country? A few more smiles,
a few more pleasures, much pain,
a little longer hurrying and wor-
rying through the world, some
hasty greetings, abrupt farewells,
and our play will be "played
out" the injured will be laid
away, and, ere long, forgotten.
Is it worthy to hate each other?

Phillips on Grant.

Wendell Phillips, during a lec-
tureA delivered at Newton Gen.
tre, Mass, on the 18th ult., gave
= shArp blow at Gen. Grant for
his attacks upon Charles Sum-
ner. He charged the ex-Presi-
dent with being intoxicated
at the time Charles Sumner
had his first interview with him
relative to the St. Domingo
treaty. Mr.. Phillips SAID that
Sumner received the manuscript
of the'treaty from the hands of
General Grant, who drove up
to Senator Summers door when
he was sitting at dinner. Sum-
ner said to the President:
II will look at the bill; fruits
/ shall have the pleasure Of sup
porting the administration"
They were simply words of cour-
tesy. When he went home and ex-
amined the instrument he found the
dark treachery to the black race.
The next day he saw General Grant
and took back the courteous assent.
He pointed out the objections to the
treaty, and urged q reconsideration
by the administration. Grant lis
tened in sullen silence. A gentle
man was present who had been in
Washington for forty years, and as
he came away with Sumner he re-
marked:
Whats the matter with the Pres
ident? Do you think he under
stands you ?"
II should think he might" said
Sumner.
mo. he DOESN'T" was the rejoin-
der; che is in no state to understand
anything
If-Grant never heard that Sumner
took back that courteous pledge in
the chamber of the White House, it
was because his brain refused to
perform its Office. He is no judge
Of the veracity of the Senator from
Massachusetts.
OF the Motley quarrel, Mr.. Phil
lips said, the records in the State
Department in black and white.
show that the administration stoop-
ed to falsehood, and that Sumner
said to Secretary Fish:
"Sir, you are tool of the Presi-
dent for base purposes, and this re-
moval is out of spite.

The most enthusiastic advo-
Gates Of ballooning would have
hesltated to declare that subma-
rine surveys were within the
province of the @ronaut. Such,
however, is the case since M.
Duruout and his companion, 60
ing up in a balloon on the 25th
of last August, at Cherbourg,
and being at an altitude of 5000
feet. were amazed to see beneath
them, with startling distinctness,
every rock, fissure, and depres-
sion at the bottom of the sea.
And yet the sea, opposite Cape
Levy, where the mrlal voyagers
obtained this bird's-eye view,
has an average depth of 200 feet.
So limpid did that water appear
that the under-currents were
perceptible, while nothing would
have been easier than to sketch
tho bottom of the sea. Cham

A TERRIBLE FATE.-In Indi:

A TERRIBLE FATE.-In India,
lepers are occasionally buried
alive. When a poor leper is past
all hope of living more than a
few days or weeks, his nearest
relations arrange, with his ap-
proval, for his Immediate inter-
ment. Self-destruction by burial
is called samadh, and is regarded
as so highly meritorious that the
disease is sure to die out in the
family of the victim. So lately
as 1875 a leper named Oomah,
living and lingering at Serohi,
entreated his wife to put an end
to his misery. A Bunnia, or
tradesman, was accordingly en-
gagged to make the necessary ar
rangements, which simply con-
sisted in hiring a couple Of labor
ers to dig a hole into which they
thrust Oomah, consenting to his
own death. The curbar, coerced
by the British Government, at
length took cognizance of this
incident, and fined the widow
one hundred rupees. The Bun
MIA was sentenced to three years
imprisgnment and the grave
diggers each to two years, but
it is very unlikely that they will
undergo half that punishment.

We dislike for papers TO be always danning

have suffered great many to get in arrears
RETAINING from requiring payment in advance,
ui.,il three.f ourhs Of our -u5srribers are in

they neglect to pay the printer. We will

lecting the same.
To those who owe for last year we make
this proposition: Pay us 90 and we will
give you credit for two years. This is not a
reward for delinquency, for we make the adj
dtionaI proposition to let new subscribers
have the paper for 81 so a year Invariably in

become easy, and save us the mor,icaiion oil

The Grand Jury of the last term of the
district court, composed of citizens Of all por
tons of the parish, having, in its report, asked
the police jury to make an appropriation for
the construction Of fire-proof Offices for he
c.0r, and recorder, it appears to us hat ii is
not only the privilege but duty Of the rewlY
elected members to make some move in the
matter; to at least inquire into the cost Of the
work and the probable ability and desire Of
the parish as to whether the much needed
and long delayed work shall be done or rot.
The papers filed in those offices, belonging to
the parish and individual citizens thereof, are
Of great value and importance beth TO the

should by all means be kept in ire-proof

cant Compared with the loss that would resblt
from their destruction by fire.

and recorders offices IN it, and sell the builds
