A case of seductionSor "bas-
tardy" was tried during the ses-
sion Of the County Court, last
week, W. R. Reed and Miss
Johnson being the parties
principally interested. A jndg-
ment for five dollars, and one
dollar per month for seven years,
was rendered against Reed--the
monthly assessment being for
the maintenance Of the child.
Just how the jury calculated
that a child could be reared at
tile expense Of only one dollar
per month, was a mystery TO
bystanders, until a wag suggest
ed that it was to be fed on cotton
seed and molasses.
Mr.. Joseph Dawson, Of Scott
township, this county, recently
butcheted a hog, Of the Berk-
shire stock, which weighed 644
pounds. net NJ =. ~, Dawson,
residing in the same neighbor-
hood, butchered five hogs, that
were twenty months old, and
weighed in the aggregate 1884
pounds, three of them averaging
800 pounds each. From this
and other reports we have pub
lished, it will be seen that Sharp
county can produce hogs and
corn, as well as cotton. --
2ItMessrs. G. w. P. Oliver and
IT. A. Wiles, of this county, have
recently obtained a patent for
a new plan Of constructing plank
fence, which they have invented.
This is the second model for
fence that has been patented
during the past year by parties
residingin this county, and both
give evidence of mechanical
genius. What this country is
now in need of is men possessed
of q will and muscle to build
these fences, clear away the
timber between them, and cult.
vate the land.

after dark. His son, who accom-

unsuccessful attempts to arouse
the ole man, went away and lett
him. Some tiD3e after night the
son returned, and found his
father dead the cold night air
and wintry Winds had finished

mehted, end the old man was

The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1878-02-16

The CHIEF has lost a patron
through the paragraph published in
our last issue relative to the bayou
ferry. One of the young men who in
herited a share in the legislative grant,
and who is engaged in business which
has heretofore been represented in the
advertising department OF our paper,
addressed us note ordering the dis
continuance of his advertisement, the
animus of the action being disclosed
by his designation of himself rs zone
of the parties enriehing from the fer
ry." As we replied to this gentleman,
so we say to all others, that the course
of our paper upon matters affecting
the public interests, as we view them,
can never be affected one jot or little
by the bestowal or withdrawal of pa
tronage. The CHIEF would be indeed
false to every principle OF true
journalism, if an advertisement. or
the good will of an individual
could deter it fIom calling for the
abrogation of an outrageous law
which diverts each year several thou
sand dollars of public revenue from
the legitimate purpose of tightening
taxation, from the burden of which
the people are earnestly seeking re-
lief. We recognize no personal con-
sideration in the matter, and while we
regret that any one should take diff
ferent view and make it IL cause of
unpleasant feeling, we can not allow
the displeasure of individuals to intiu-
ence our treatment of legitimate sub
jects of public discussion.

Madison Wells furnished bail and
has left the Orleans parish prison, but
Anderson retains his quarters there
pending the result of il motion for a
new trial filed by his attorneys. The
conviction of Anderson has caused
much excitement aud Indignation in
Administration circles at Washington,
aud y majority of the Cabinet are
said to have urged the President to
take some action in the matter but it
is difficult tosee in what way he can
interfere tothe Advantage of the pris-
oner, further than to invoke the exec
utive clemency of Coy. Nichols,
which it is said he viii do. We incline
tothe belief that the Governor regards
The prosecution of the Returning
Board violatiye of the spirit, if not the
letter, of the agreement embodied in
the resolutions adopted by the Odd
Fellows Hall Legislature just prior to
the breaking mp of the Packard gov
ernnentlast spring. 1t remains to be
seen, in case Anderson is refused a
new trial, whether Gen. Nichols has
the nerve to meet the tempest of de
lmnciation which the Last Dilclers
viii raise about his gubernatorial head
ifhe E|ares to exercise the executive
prerngatiya If pardan in Mr.. Aaacr-
sens behalf.

THE FERRY CHARTER..

A grapevine Telegram from the
capital brings us information OF the
passage by the Senate, to day, OF the
bill repeating the act of 1870 granting
ferry privileges to Marx schonberg
and VIM. MurreH. This bill had been
previously fixed as the special order
of the day, and being called up BY
Senator Landry, it was, on his motion,
put through its several readings and
finally passed. 1t now goes to the
House for concurrence, and there is
every reason to anticipate favorable
action on the part of that body, even
if the two Representatives from this
parish oppose the measure, as 1t IS
rumored they will do. This reports
based principally upon the fact that
one of these parties moved to table
resolution providing for a committee
to investigate the subject OF the ferry
charter. The resolution was adopted,
notwithstanding, and this leads us to
hope that the repeating bill will pass.
We warn Messrs. Hill and Fobb
that opposition to this measure will
be opposition to the public interest,
and will inevitably subject them to
the suspicion of yielding to improper
influences.
The revenues of the bayou ferry
belong of right to the municipal and
parochial governments, and the act
diverting them to the pockets of prl-
vate individuals was one of the fea,
lures of an era of special and corrupt
legislation now happily passed away
We are gratified to note the posi-
ton of Senator Landry upon the ferry
question, and can assure him that i
will be appreciated by the people
His proposition to form a committee
to investigate a subject SO plain ant
notorious in all it's details was calcu
lated to create misapprehension il
the minds of his friends and the pub
lie, a4d he is to be, congratulated 70
relinquishing the project.

nuPILldTY OF DIAZ

Mr.. Foster, our Minister to Mexico,
is in Washington, and in contraven-
ton of general expectation, he does
not urge the immediate recognition of
Diaz as President of our sister Repub-
lie. On the contrary, he recommends
continued delay in the matter until
such time as Diaz gives indubitable
evidence of his intention to cooper
ate with our government in good faith
for the suppression of border raids
and outrages. His efforts in that di-
rection, so far, are pronounced BY
Mr.. Foster as mere pretenses intended
to deceive the United States authori-
ties. The mutteiings of revolution
are heard ever aud anon, and a presi-
Dental election looms up in the not
distant future, wherefore the polite
Diaz plays his cards to keep the favor
of his border States, which he could
not do were he to wage serious wal
upon their cattle thieves and plug
uglies.
Mr.. Fosters opportunities for OBJ
serving the inuer workings of the
Mexican dynasty entitle his opinions
to great weight, and it is more than
probable that our government will
follow his suggestions IN dealing with
the question OF recognition.
