Louisiana among tie strongest
Democratic States ii the South.
Her recent release from bondage,
however, and the.peculiar circum-
stances attending it and tie char
acter of the voters through whose
fundamentally it was effected
does not warrant such a conclu-
sion. Radicalism under the reign
of Kellogg the Thief Usurper had
become such a curse upon the
prosperity of the country that her
people as a whole, regardless OF
minor political beliefs, rose to put
a common evil. Composed
as they we're of tariff and anti
tariff men, regulators and anti
regulators, limited and universal
sulragists, Wings, Liberals, con-
-servatives; Greenbackers, and the
omniun gaherium which completed
the makeup Of the party in 1876,
they could not, properly speaking,
be considereds as Democrts. Now
that the common end for which
they labored has been attained, is
it reasonable to suppose that
hey will cast their ballots for a
party which only partially repre-
sents their ideas ? We think not.
The Natchitoches Vindicatoa

fare of the party and after acarefnI

news spread through the street like

The reputation and popularity OF

at home, and the result is that a
large assembly OF ladies compris.

At the appointed time a large

their way out to the ball grounds
to witness the game. some on
horseback, others in vehicles, aud

SAN Francisco, Feb. 1S.-About 3
o'clock this afternoon the ferry steamer
Ell Captain and Alameda, plying between
this city and Oakland Point. collided in
mid passage A dense fog prevailed and
the boats were close to each other before
they could be seen. The bow of the FL
Captain struck the Alameda on the port
quarter shattering her guard and rail, but
doing her no serious damage. The port
bow of the FL Captain was crushed in and
she filled and sank rapidly, The greatest
terror and confusion prevailed. Some of
the passengers jumped on board the
Alameda. Others sprang into the water. In
a few moments the steamers drifted apart
and lost sight of each other 10 the fog. The
FL Captitan sank to the hurricane deck
and drifted rapidly towards North Point
in the strong ebb tide. The Harbor
Commissioners tug Gov. Irwin, which
was in the vicinity, piloted by the cries and
screaming of whistles. steamed at once to
the rescue and picked up those struggling
in the water. 1t is impossible az present
to statet the loss of life, if any. Many are
of the opinion that all were saved, but
others say some must have been lost

Every moment of delay makes your case more
hopeless, and much depends on the judiCious
choice OF remedy. The amount of testimony in
favor of DR.. Schenck's Pulmonic IS yrup, as a cure
for Consumption, far exceeds all that can be
brought to support the pretentions Of any other
medicine. see DR.. Schenck's Almanac, containing
the certificates of many persons of the highest
respectability, who have been restored to health,
after being pronounced incurable by physicians Of
acknowledged ability. sChenck's Pulmonic Syrup
alone has cured many, as these evidences will
show; but the cure is often promoted by the en-
Dloyment of two other remedies which Dr.schenck
provides for the purpose. These additional RENE
dies are Schencks Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills. BY the timely use of these medicines, ac-
cording to directions, DR.. Schenck certifes that
most any case of Consumption may be cured.
