The Small Boy "Ha, Some Fun"

He was naturally cruel. and he told
m acquaintance one day that he had =
new trick TO play on the public-some-
thing entirely new. lie had long
string and brass key tied to the end OF
II, which he said was the instrument: OF
torture. Over the front sidewalk ma
ple tree sent some pretty strong branches.
making q seat hidden BY leaves. Into
this. after dark. the boys climbed.
"Now watt" says the principal. eth
the first victim comes. and don't make q
noise" Pretty soon an ordinarily
dressed woman came along. and just as
she had passed he let drop the key ON
the hard sidewalk. Immediately palling
IL up again. Both now watched dsyel-
opments. The woman came to sudden
stop, began tumbling In her pocket. and
wondered what 1t WAS she could have
dropped. She started on, but had not
gone far before she came back. impslled
by curiosity. and began q careful search
of the walk. Meanwhile ths boys in
the tree had stuffed their fists in their
mouths to keep from soaring the
game, and dared hardly look
below for fear OF laughing out.
A sympathstic sister came along. and
together they picked up stones and
turned over all the chips on the walk.
No money. no key. nothing did they
nnd and so went on to their homes,
perhaps to worry all night. or perhaps
a picsls In the tree turned their look OF
disappointment to n very cheap smile
and a laugh from the same place made
them have awful wicked thoughts about
the boys.
One victim found piece OF tin, and
LAYING the cause OF tho noise to that,
was saved from q great deal OF worry.
But when she picked II up and threw 1t
down several times 10 test the sound. the
boys nearly fell out Of the tree. A man,
when caught, would slap all OF his poek-
cts. glance around little. but itwas
seldom that he was brought TO hard
pan search. When any one saw the
trick after searching half an hour aud
saying all kinds Of little things for the
amusement Of the boys, he simply went
away hurrisdly. There was no remark
10 make, no name to call. To get out OF
sight q. soon a. possible seemed to be
the most desirable. The trick 10 harm
less no ono breaks o leg or loses an eye
IN its process. 1t might be recommended
TO constitutionally tired boys a. a good
way to sweep tho walk. The victims
will throw all the chips and stones into
the street by curiosity power. a.

The great jackson Route has now on
sale excursion tickets to the beautiful
summer resorts Of the Northwest at
very low rates. They will remain on sale till
September 80, and will be good to return till
October 81, They include such well known
Lake, Wisconsin; st. Paul, Minnesota; Grand
Haven and Mackinaw, Michigan, and Niagara
Falls, besides numerous others OF perhaps
equal attractions. There are no more desira-
bic places at which to spend the summer than
these cool and healthfui resorts, situated In
the lovely lake district of Wisconsin, or on
the noble Lake Michigan and Niagara river.
and at many of them are mineral springs
particularly adapted to the cure Of complaints
engendered by Southern climate. All are
easily accessible from large cities, and COM
bine with their associations the benefits OF
rural life.
To reach them the, great jackson Route Is
the shortest, quickest and only direct line.
It is In excellent order, having been practi-
cally rebuilt with steel rails. No one passing
over it can fail to notice the smooth track, alb
sence Of dust, and thoroughly satisfactory
condition Of everything about 1t. Pullman
cars run through to Chicago and Cincinnati
without change, and there Is no change Of
cars from there to nearly, II not quite, all the
points to which excursion tickets are sold.
Books, maps and folders, giving full de-
scriptions of the Northwestern watering
places and the routes and rates thereto can
be had at the Office of the great Jackson Route,
No % Camp street, under City Hotel, where
every one intending to spend the summer
away from this city is invited to call before
deciding to go elsewhere.
The great Jackson route is also without a
superior as line to New York and all the
principal Eastern cities, reaching them with
but one change of cars.

Cyclones would appear to have become
thoroughly acclimated to this country; even
our own State has not altogether escaped
them. The storm reported in West Louis
lana last Wednesday appears to have been a
quite severe affair. The Assumption Chroni-
Gle reports several buildings blown down. The
st. Landry papers report two men killed by
lightning in that parish, and several other
persons, as well as a number of mules and
horses dangerously injured; trees were up
rooted and blown fifty yards; fences blown
away; chimneys knocked down, and some in
jury done to the crops. Several other par
ishes report losses, and the storm, although a
short one, appears to have been fit sequel to
the cyclones that lately caused such havoc
and destruction In the Northwest.

A large number of merchants OF New York
have petitioned the House Committee on
Ways and Means to lay an import tax on tea,
on the singular ground that such a duty
would increase the quality OF the tea drank
In this country. The Chinese 80 these petit
TONERS say, are taking advantage OF the fact
that there is no duty on tea In this country,
to import inferior articles, which command
the same prices as better brands. AS a mat
ter of fact, they say we got far better teas In
the days when this article paid heavy duty
thereon than we do now, when it is brought
here duty free.
Tea, they continue, is really an article OF
luxury In this country; coffee an article OF
necessity. 1t is mostly the reverse in Eng
land, and consequently tax on tea will only
affect the richer classes and, therefore, be
easily borne.
This duty may have the effect of developing
tea culture in this country, in which enter
prise our Department of Agriculture seems
so earnestly engaged just now, and which, it
is said. really promises to prove success in
the Carolinas and Georgia.
There is little likelihood however, that the
Committee on Ways and Means will be able
to do anything In this matter this year, the
tariff bill having already been effectually
killed, but the merchants interested In It an
nounce that they will bring the question be-
fore the next Congress also for consideration
and action

We refer those Senators who opposed the
Brazilian mail subsidy on the ground that
100000 should not be paid for mail service
which is had now for $4,000, to the statistics
Of our Japan trade as proof Of what can be
accomplished by the judieious subsidizing OF
our foreign commerce. In 1859 cur commerce
with Japan amounted to just 1926. Now il
amounts to $16,0O0,OOO annually, which i'm
mense results are Immediately attributable to
the Pacific mail line Of steamships. From
January, 1867, to June 80, 1876, the govern
ment had paid to this line for mail
transportation $4,5OO,OOO, and had re-
ceived In increased customs $5,976, 526,
showing an increase of receipts over and above
the subsidy Of $1,476,526. The excess OF re-
ceipts resulting on customs from the estab-
Iishment of direct trade with Brazil would be
even larger than this In proportion to the
amount Of the subsidy. The $4,000 expended
annually for mail service goes to foreign ships
and the Substituting Of foreign lines and is a
dead expense, while in few years the subsidy
to one of our own lines will place the balance
largely on the side Of the government.

There seems to be little doubts 1t good
or bad sign THAT Republican candidates
are the first in the field In quite number OF
parishes. In the river parishes host of Re
publican Office seekers are already out, and
not few have had their names and the offices
they are running for inserted In the news
papers. In Avoyelles, so the Marksville
BuIletm says, Republican or quasi Repub-
lican candidates are out in force, and already
quarreling over fat offices, while Democratic
candidates are altogether unknown. What Is
the significance of this, it is hard to say; it
is greatly to be feared, however, that 1t
means more thorough Republican organiza-
ton in the coming campaign than most of us
have looked forward to.

The United States will in very short time
fall heir to over one hundred million acres Of
land, an area as large as all the New England
and Middle States. This is land granted by
Congress to certain railroad and telegraph
lines, but have not been earned under these
grants. Many Of these have been withdrawn
and withheld from settlement for more than
twenty years, thus retarding the development
of large sections Of country. The House Com
mittee has just decided to report in favor OF
FORGETTING all these non-earned grants and to
open these lands to public settlement; and
there seems to be no reason to doubt that the
House viii almost unanimously adopt this

The split in the Democratic ranks in st
Landry-a difference that gave the Republi-
cans three members of the Legislature from
this, the strongest Democratic constituency
in the State-is fully healed. The two wings
of the st. Landry Democracy have come to-
gether and agreed to terms that must bring
about complete unity of action in the coming
campaign. 1t is difficult to see where any diff.
ference OF opinion can break out now to MARI
the promising outlook in st. Landry. That
parish in 1876, gave Democratic vote more
than 1900 larger than any other parish in the
State. With a united front, such as its
Democracy now presents, it will undoubted'
ly do even better in November next.

Congress seems to still favor special COM
lnittees. The Senate has just agreed on two
more OF these to investigate and report on
subjects Of great interest. It was resolved
few days ago to appoint Joint special COM
mittee on the army to sit during the recess Of
Congress and report measures looking to the
complete reorganization Of our army. Last
Friday the Senate agreed on special Indian
committee to investigate and report upon the
Indian question; the policy that ought to be
pursued In dealing with the Indians and the
advantages or disadvantages of transferring
the control and care of the Indians from the
Internal Department to the army.

tion. Since then, however, Austria and Rus
STA have signified their desire to join In any
conference that would settle this awkward
question, which has puzzled not only this
country, but the whole world. Italy, tits also
said, Is anxious to be- represented, and will
probably formally decide TO join in the con
ference.
Earnest efforts are now being made to per-
suade England, France and Germany to send
representatives. These powers have the
question now under consideration and will
give determinate answers in a very short
time.
The probabilities point to respectable con.
gress that will settle the awkward silver
question, that has more than once already
disturbed the finances, harmony and politics
Of this country.

Virginia philology especially Of the tide

that he is curious about. He would ask about
them, but he knows too, too well that every
Virginia family has its own traditions and
that family pride requires that they should
differ from all others, and the result is fine
assortment of explanations from which the
individual in pursuit of information is driven
to the disagreeable necessity of selecting the
one that suits him best. The same luck has
attended our queries about the ancient and
respectable family of Darbys, and for this
very reason we regret to say to our CORE
spondent, "Wearifoot." whose version we
