now exporting to Great Britain and the
continent large quantities of ready made
furniture, from Kitchen chairs and tables
to the most elegant accessories of the

these objects are turned ont is almost

Is, that the objects are manufactured
solid, and bear much more wear and
tear than articles of IL similar class made
in England. The prices are also much
more reasonable, because skilled labor
is. to great extent. dispensed with,
and cheap machinery is substituted for
manual dexttrity. But it is not only in
the matter ot household furniture that
competition is to be dreaded. The
Americans are now sending us window
sashes, doors, skirting boards, panel
work, wainScots, and all descriptions of

Who Loses the Eight Cents

Seventy or eighty papers have come

Il ninety two cent silver piece. for dol

puzzles lis. If ii carpenter receives
from the government u n'netvtw0 cent

upon his butcher for IL dollar, and the
butcher lriSStS it upon the shoemaker
for Il dollar, and the shoemaker passes
it upon his landlord FOR II dollar, ana
the landlord passes it for IL dollar upon
the State for taxes, and the State pasStS
1t for ii dollar upon I; mason for work
on the new State House, and the mason
passes it for d dollar to a merchant for
il silk dress for his wife, aud the mer-
chant passes it for Il dollar to the GUS
tom hullSt. officer for import duties, aud
the United States Treasury PASSES ii as
ii dollar to IL soldier, and the soldier
PASSES il as Il dollar tn the same car
prnter hereinhefore previously NELL
toned, we are unable to SEE who has
lost the eight cents: Happy thought
perhaps the loss fell on some man who
did not get it Seriously, the sam..
man who lost the 8 cents also loses Is

quarters, that have only 81 cents worth
of silver in them. But, even then the
5 cent nickel puzzles us. In dollars
worth of these there is only 19 cents
worth of metal. Now will some of the
editors who lie awake nights to figure
such things ont please to inform liz
who it is that loses the 81 cents every
time a dollars worth OF nickels il
Who loses cents every time
Il scent piece is paid for a glass of lager

are even IL greater robbery. We have

nature to the bill in Jelerence to the
large majority which it received ia both

that it was void and of no effect When

true canvass and compilation of votes,
and the averment that he uttered and
published the false canvass and COM

lect taxes Tor expenses in criminal pro.
ceedings, under the limitations of ex-
listing laws, on property situated within
the limits of municipal corporations in
the different parishes. See the act in
another column.
We never could see the sense of ex-
empting property from taxation for
criminal prosecution within the towns
of the parishes. 1t is in these incor-
porated towns that the majority of
criminal cases coming before the court
originate and it is nothing bnt fair that
the property owners living in them
should contribute their share of expen-
