Where my hosom friend shall he,
Not where nollyhoCkS are haunting,
But where yioles scent the lea.
Not where gaudy parrots chatter,
But whtre larks aud linnets sing;
Not with dahllas of the Autumn,
But the lilies of the Spring.
Ever birds of plainest pumage
Scatter sweetest music round
Ever flowers of richest odor
Grow the nearest to the ground.
l will tell thce-I will tel thee
Where my bosom friend shah be:
Not where naughty riches gather
Needy knaveS TO bend the knee
Not where Pride looks down on Merit,
Or where Beauty dwellS with Scoru.
But where Wealth is linked with Goodness,
And the best are noblost born.
For The humbleSt are the wiseSt,
And the Meek are glory-crowned,
And the sweetest scented flow 'rets
Grow the nearest 10 the ground.

At daintieS he may not refuse.
Thus luciouS fruits of springs are here,
And sayory odors I'LL the air;

With shortcake on the bill Of fare.

Al prices fair beyond his means,
His sweetheart eyes with vague unrest,
And suffers pain mid festive scenes.

CoUsHATrA, October 25.--In the face of
the most sanguine prospects for the De-
mocratic party of this parish at the ensu-
ing election, and with victory well nigh
assured to them, the door to the recistra-
ton room was broken last night and the
registration books purloined to defeat an
election. All the elective offices Of this
parish are now filed by the Republicans,
It is thought that they will hold over il
the election is defeated.
There is nothing left now but to
reopen registration, enroll as many
Democrats as offer themselves and
close the doors in the face of Repub-
licans for want of time.

WHLr rHEY ARE pLEpaEp 10.

We learn that the Democratic
nominees for the Legislature are
pledged to the following policy:
1. To take care that the rate of
taxation and assessment shall not be
in any manner reduced by law.
9. To make no reduction in the
fees Of the Sheriff.
? 8. To let the present city charter
remain undisturbed.
4. To maintain the high salaries
and perquisites to the overpaid State
officials, such as tax collectors, as
SCISSORS, clerks of courts, assistant at
torneys, etc.
No man could be placed upon the
ticket unless he was believed to be
sound on these points.

WASHINGTON, October 25.-Ata Cabinet
meeting this afternoon the appointments
by the Secretary Of War as members OF
the Ead's Jetty Commission, of Generals
Barnard, Wright, Tower, McComb and
Merrill were confirmed.
The Attorney General read large mum =
Der of kilograms received by him from
South Carolina and Texas. These tele-
grams stated that Republican meetings are
being broken up in those States by armed
Democrats and the rights Of suffrage
otherwise interfered with.
These kilograms also state that when
the Democrats break up q meeting and
Federal authorities get warrants for offend
ing parties that no attempt whatever is
made to resist arrest. On the other hand
they quietly submit to it, Before their
arrests can be effected, however, they have
broken up the next meeting. twas repre-
sented that the Federal authorities are un-
able to fully protect Republicans in the
exercise of their rights, making arrests
being IS far as they can go.
The Cabinet was of the opinion, it is
understood, that with the posse comitdtus
clause in the army bill nothing could be
done while judicial processes of courts
are not resisted, as it is acknowledged
they are not.
The instructions Of the Attorney Gen
eral to the district attorneys have beer
repeated, and they are urged to be Wig
liant and to act promptly aud vigorously

National enthusiasm is the great nurs-
cry of genius.
Drunkenness turns man out of him.
self, and leaves beast in the room.
Crows are never the winter for wash
ing themselves.
Contempt will sooner kill an injury
than revenge.
Compliments cost nothing, yet many
pay dearly for them.
Nature never says that which reason
will contradict.
Fire and sword are but slow engines
of destruction when compared with the
b lbbler.
Men look at the faults of others with a
telescope-at their own with the same
instrument reversed, or not at all.
Harsh words and harsh requirements
have many time alienated a child 8
feelings and crushed out all love of
home.
The greatest luxury of riches is that
they enable you to escape SO much good
advice. The rich are always advising
the poor; but the poor seldom venture
to return the compliment.
An instance decides the life of man
and his whole fate; for after heightened
thought the resolve is only the act of a
moment; it is the man of sense that
seizes on the right thing to be done; it
is ever dangerous to linger in your selec-
tion of this and that, and so by your
hesitation get confused.
