one hundred and nine pounds. This
delicate creature is ON deposit at Peffer-
korn's saloon.
Our friend Emanuel Phillips has sue
cumbed, for awhile, to hard times and
credit. Having bought considerably on
a credit, and sold still more on a credit,
and being unable to collect what was
due him, he had to surrender the goods
ON hand to satisfy his creditors, while
ne is left with uncolleeted claims. We
hope, and believe, that he will soon be
able to reopen his store under more
favorable auspieesI.,

AS the Supreme Judges entered the
Court room, all the attorneys rose, and
re,aained standing until the Judges had
taken their seats on the bench. 1t is
said this ID the first instance at Opelou-
sas Of this mark of respect for the
highest court in the State, and it is
gratifying to know ID was eminently
deserved.
There were but eighteen new, and
seven old, cases on the docket, but
for the first time in many years, the
Judges have manifested none OF that im-
patience to hurry through business, and
get away from town, which character
lied the late Supreme Court.
A formal reception WIS rendered the
Supreme Judges by the members of the
