PIONEER FIRE Gothic members of
this organization very properly decided,
on Saturday evening last. to send their
engine to New Orleans for repair. Ac-
cordingly it left on the Ouachita Belle,
and was followed by DR.. McCrindell, on
Tuesday, who was commissioned to see
that the best arrangements are made to
put the engiue in thorough repair and
working order. This done. we feel con-
WINGED that she will render effici emit
service in time of need. We under
stand that the boys are determined that
she shall not return until she is as good
as new ard in condition to make q credi-
table fight with the fire king. When the
two engines come back won't there be
2eal Of squirting though ito say moth
ing of The gassing. All right.-honest and
friendly rivalry is good stimulant.
While on the subject of fire engi, es, we
will just express the sense OF gratitude
which the community feels towards
Capt. Brown Of the Allen, and Capt. Lii
bano of the Ouachita Belle, respectively,
for carrying down tho engine Of Bayou
Sara No. and Pioneer No. l, free Of
charge. Of course these noble gentle
men will restore the engines to us at
thecsame rate Of freight.

A FALSE IMPRESSION.

Parties who claim to have the right to
make the medicine discovered by Dr. A.
Q. Simmons are attempting to sustain a.
warning reputation ~ attacking the Or.
ginal and Genuine preparation. In 1856
DR.. Simmons gave the original receipt
and right to make his Liver Medicine %
his son-in-law j. H. Thepford, now living
near Chattanooga, Tenn. We make the
original and only genuine Dr.. A: Q. Sim
m ons' Liver Medicine from this receipt.
Every genuine package of tho medi-
cine is enclosed in u yellow wrapper,
on which is likeness of DR.. A: Q. Sim
mons, which we have registered in tho
Patent Office as our trade mark. line
medicine is for sale by Dr. Mumford and
DR.. Brooks, with whom we have left
some trial packages to be given away

A GREAT CONVENIENCE for the citn
zens OF St. Francisville may he attained
in the establishment of an iron letter box
at n central point, in which persons who
have letters for the mail may deposit
them and thus save a trip to the post of:
fee. We suggest that the postmaster
forwards q petition, properly signed, to
the post Office department., requesting
that such Il box be placed at the corner
of Royal and Prosperity streets, at the
SENTINEL building, in this city. The
point designated is at least mile from
the post Office and is tho most central po-
sition that could he selected ;-convcni-
nit to the prin itimg Office, lawyers Offices,
court house, parish offices, etc. etc. Post
master Stephens who has always shown
q disposition to further tho convenience
of tho public will doubtless oblige the
citizens of the upper city by giving this
suggestion the requisite approval and
forwarding the necessary documents to
Washington at once. Once established,
this box would save many ladies and
gentlemen Il long and sometimes disa-
greeable tramp. Let's have it.

OUR FERHY.-After the boat recently
completed by Mr.. B. +. White for Il
ferry boat at this point, and in which it
was contemplated to use horse power, was
launched, it was fonnd that she would
be one of the best adapted boats to Use
in connection with steam tug, that has
ever been built on the river. OF consc-
u,lence Mr.. White has determined to
purchase Il good tug which, together
with tho boat he has built under
his own supervision, will furnish US with
a. good facilities i'll tho way of ferry
as our wants demand.
In connection With the subject it is
worthy of note that Mr.. Eugene Oubre
has established ali excellent ferry across
the Grand Levee crevasse, so that trav-
elers to Western Louisiana and Texas
will find no difficulty on account of the
opening in the levee a. that point.
Speaking OF this tue Pointe Coupe
Pelican says:
His boats are safe, convenient and of
capacity to meet all the wants of the
travelling public. Emigrants to West
ern Louisiana and to Texas will now
find this the safest and most convenient
route.
We see no reason why Bayou Sara
should not DO the most popular point for
| crossing to persons travelling to the
points mentioned tas it used to be in the
past) as soon us Mr.. White gets his ferry
| in operation.

THE DEMOCRACY.
lDallas lTex.) Hernldl.

The democratic press of the West are
discussing the future prospects Of the
party, and seem we'll satisfied with the
situation. Complete success is within
tho grasp of the people, through the pres
ent democratic organization. The mis-.
rule of the republican party for the past
twelve years has been SO apparent that
the elements of opposition will necessa-
rily demand o surrender Of that power
which they have 80 long abused. The
people from sad experience, have learned
that every financial measure which has
been enacted by the old partyJTlas been
conceived in the interests of the money
power. Federal legislation has been a
series of enactments which have had for
their object the enhancement Of the pur-
chasing power Of money, andssnecessarily
a corresponding depreciation in its rep
resentatives-property and labor. These
snactments have yielded their legiti
mate fruits, and to-day the prostration Of
business and enforced idleness all over
the country is felt to IN alarming ex-
tent. feeling of unrest, Of dissatisfac-
ton has permeated the laboring, the
manufacturing and industrial interests
of the whole land, and the people are
The platforms of Ohio and Indiana, pro-
posed and adopted by the democracy OF
those States suggest snc! means.

THIRD-CLAss MAIL MATTER,
The New Plan of Registering.

WxsAiNGroN, Der, 19. The new plan
of registering third-class mail matter,
wbichhss been in operation three weeks,
has proved to be great success, and re-
ports from all directions show that its al
vantsges are appreciated by the public.
The retail merchants OF the larger cities
are using it to extend their trade through
the mails, which is cheaper and quite as
rapid ia delivery as the express comps
MES. The New York, merchants report
that their mail trade, now that the sys,
tenn of registration is adopted, will in
crease radidly, and they are sending out
thousands of catalogues end samples to
the smaller towns, where the advantages
OF prices and variety. in ladies' goods
particularIs,. are not offered. The same
is true OF merchants in Western, cities.
Heretofore the trade by samples through
the express companies has been large
but the charges for carriage were SO
high, that there was no economy in Q
small purchase Now lady's silk dress
can he sent through the mail, registered,
for 5cents, and the merchants, on'even
small ,pprchases, can afford to- prepay
postage, and thps' acastotner IN 1 village
can have equal advantages in trade with
people who live in cities. From the re.
port already received the income of the
Postefice Department will be Increased
by this new system
