TWO GOVERNMENTS.

Louisiana, like South Carolina, is
afflicted with two governments. Yes
terday Packard, the favorite of the Re-
tuning Board, and Nichols, the choice
of the people, were each inaugurated
iiNew Orleans as Governor of Lonis-
lana. The dispatches say that Pack
ards Inauguration was quietly per
formed in the presence of few, while
large and enthusiastic crowd wit
messed the inauguration of Nichols. 1t
was simply repetition of what trans
pired in Sonth Carolina month ago,
WI 81 Chamberlain, the bayonet Gov
ernor. was secretly sworn into Office by
probate judge on whom, an unconsti-
tutional body calling itself a Legisla-
tuie, by the passage of a bill, conferred
that power, as the Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court refused to administer
the oath to man not legally elected to
the Office; while Hampton, on the other
hand, was publicly inaugurated in the
presence of rejoicing multitude by
the Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court. e
In each of these States. there are
now two men claiming to be Governor
and two bodies claiming 10 be the law
fnl Legislature. Ii each one govern.
nlent is recognized by the citizers the
taxpayers who maintain it, while the
other is recognized by the Federal
Government. which supports it with
troors. In these States We have
striking illustration of the effect OF
partisan legislation which confers des-
potic powers on Canvassing Boards and
enables. th5m to count in whom they
please and disfranchise thousands of
voters upon the slightest prettxt, BY
a process similar to that now in vogue
in Louisiana, the Legislature of Nevada
can create Returning Board with
power to perpetnate itself forever and
throw out at will the votes of whole
counties. With this board, composed
Of INSCRIPTIONS partisans who are not
responsible to the courts for any of
their acts, the people of the State
might go through the farce of holding
elections, but none save those in favor
with the board would ever be declared
elected, no matter what their mnjorities
might be. A governments based on
such principles may be considered re-
publican in Louisiana, but it is doubt
fnlif it wonld be held as sneh by any
impartial court in the United States.

The Drum and Fife.

Drums and fifes are probably the most
ancient, saws Chambers Journal. as they
are certainly the most familiar. II all our
musical pardphernalia and they have
been through many ages associated with
scenes Of warlikc interest and display
Whatever he their origin. there Is a charm
which j. alien 10 all other instruments,
and which makes the music they produce
more applicable o. military purposes
than any other. II would bc difficult. if
not wholly impossible. 10 describe the
cause Of this, but It is certain that on
the line Of march men find it easier to
keep step to the lively tones OF the fife
and the brisk roll Of the drum than to
follow a brass band, which cannot be dis
tinctly heard further than about half the
length OF battalion. 1t is a singular
thing, however, that it is only the Eng
llsh speaking people who make this kind
OF music national, for the French and
othercontinental armies generally march
to the sound of the drum and bugle,
when their brass bands are not playing.
But this kind of music has never found
favor with our British regiments, though
many attempts have been made to intro
duce it. 1t has foreign ring about it
which makes it unpleasant to English
ears, and it is very monotonous char
acter, there being no more than five notes
OF the common bugle, consequently the
few tunes that can be played upon it
have a sameness about them which is ex-
ceedingly wearisome to the ear. But
this does not prevent its being used oc-
casionally, as change to the music of
the trombone or the fife. The chief glory
of the drum lies in the crispness of its
sound and the beauty of its appoint
ments, though of late years the instru.
ment has been sadly used by being cut
down to a mere skeleton, composed prin.
cipally of bolts and screws, with scarce
ly any body to it at all. The handsom-
est specimens of the drum which have
been familiar to us from childhood and
to preceding generations are those borne
by the drummers of the Guards, which
are beautifully emblazoned with the
royal coat of arms and the names of the
battles in which each regiment has been
engaged ; and the bearers take a pride
IN keeping the plain brass brilliant,
while the emblazoned portion is always
we'll polished with beeswax.

No piece Of iron in any shape can restore a

ligeRt surgery and mechanical appliances to ex-
pand or contract neither will turning out alone
be permanent benefit for expansion-so says
DR.. Dunbar, and he is endorsed by the highest
authority East as well as on this coast, where he
has introduced his system. HIS shoe relieves
the wall of the foot from contraction below the
clinches, as the nails are driven diagonally from
the inside beyel of the shoe. and not dividing
and cramping the wall as with the old. As the
DR.. proposes to take pupils and give instruction,
it would be well for our Ranchmen and Black
smiths to make a note Of this when they visit
San Francisco. He is also prepared to sell State
and County rights with his Patent Anti-Con-

Odd Chinese Customs.

The Chinese have some odd customs
In connection with death. When a per-
son is dying they hasten to dress him in
his best clothes, that he may meet bet
ter reception in the next world. He
must be removed from the koBo (brick
bed lest his spirit should enter therein
and haunt it. When a man is dead he is
supposed to be compelled to cross over
a deep abyss, walking upon a very slen-
der thread. This is exceedingly danger
GUS, and he is liable to be precipitated
into fearful flames. In Shanghai mem
Der of the Episcopal Church died. His
wife was heather. Some of the assist
ants, in dressing him, wished to put on
a pair of boots with leather soles. mo, Z"
said the wife, " they are so slick, he
would fall off the bndge."
When the funeral is near at hand, a
tent of mating is erected at the street
door of the house in which lies the dead
body. This tent is furnished with
benches and table or two, and is for
the convenience of the hired musicians.
For two or three days and nights, the
music ~ goes on at intervals, to foreign
ears making day wearisome, and night
hideous with the din. To the natives
it is a real festival, even more Jolly in
appearance than a wedding. Friends
and relatives come dressed in white.
Even little boys are clothed in this way.
They generally look particularly happy
on such occasions. The firing of pop
crackers adds to the solemnity of the
scenel The day OF the funeral is the
gayest of all. The coffin is placed on a
bier covered with cloth, which really
looks quite handsome. A number of rag
amufins, picked up anywhere, wearing
the shabbiest of old clothes, and the
most 'comical of clowns hats, have been
hired to carry the red banners, which
add to the magnifcence of the occasion.
When all is ready to start to the grave
some pieces Of mating are spread out
on the street. The ladies in the family,
dressed in white, some of the younger
ones with their faces painted and look
ing quite pretty, come out and throw
themselves on the mating, with their
faces to the ground, and weep most Bit
terly. They seem to think it is delight
full. They hardly ever get outside of
their own door, and now to be taking q
prominent part in such festivities is
really charming. The young ladies look
as coquetish as any Fifth avenue belle,
and evidently enjoy the admiration they
excite. When the funeral moves away
the ladies retire, no doubt very sorry
that the fun is over.-Riad Words.
