The party that must needs depend on
force to secure success is unfit to govern in
this or any other country, and as the rep

cause the English refuselto pay homage to
Grant, private citizen of the United

has been replaced with stylish and
substantial residences and stores. The
two story buildings Of Messrs. Jean

below and residences upstairs; the

Of Mr.. Jean Gouaux and the fancy
little cafe of Felix Gan,lin, with neat
banquets along the entire front Of tho
square, are not only decided improve

>noninces Of the Republican State
Convention, their standing, respect

political element is not entirely ex-
tinct. Though we have no doubt the
Democrats will carry the State cleo
tion, we feel confident t!.at their vic
tory will not he achieved without re-
sorting to the extreme measures of
political tactics. The Republican
party was slnmbcring, but it is not
dead ! 1t has been corrupted by u
hand Of spoliators, narcotized by
wicked men whose support the colored
men were compelled after mature ex-
perience tn refuse. But it would not
be a wonder if all the colorel voters
rally again nuder their former colors
and with unbroken ranks sustain the
ticket whicI, has been put in the field
1t also affords us the opportunity Of

Republicanism means plun.ltr. When

Stabbed by a Woman.
Strange ARRAY on the Streets of Winns-
borough, La.
Franklin SIM

Saturday evening, at about half
past 6 o'clock, quite IL sensation was
created by scene which was enacted
on one of our streets. Mr. II. Block,
an old and we'll known citizen, whilst
on his way from his place of business
to his boarding house was attacked
by Miss Annie Alverson and stabbed
in four different places. The cause
Ut this rash act is Que of the hidden
Mysteries which time aud the search
ing processes of the law alone can
bring t" light. 1t seems that there
had never been an alteration of any
kind between the parties, and even
their acquaintance with each other
was limited. The young lady came
to onr town well recommended about
two years ago, aud her manners and
conversation show that she has had
the advantage of education and first
class association. Her wrongs, either
real or imaginary, must have been
great or she could never have so far
transcribed the bounds of her proper
sphere rs to have committed the hor-

fatal to the life IF a human being.
Madame Rumor" has it that Cupid
has bl fought about this nnaccountable
affair, she cnntrivins that Mr.. Block
had interfered to estrange one WHOM,
she had considered her best friend !;
bnt we do not vOuch for the truth Of
this supposition. We can only say
that at this stage Of life Mr.. Block
would present rather Il queer appear
nnce playing the role Of All intermedler
between lovers. Some excitement
had, previous to this occurrence, been
caused by the threats of this young
lady, but it was Thought by mauy
that they were caused by momentary
passion and would never be carried
into execution. She made no attempt
to escape after the crime was com /.
mitted, was arrested by the Sheriff,
aud in default Of giving bond was
sent to Jail, where she is still CON
tined. The wounds inflicted proved
not t" he fatal, and'it is Thought that
Mr.. Block will be up ready Tor bust
ness in a few days.

Cult, passed over our town. AS it is
an uncommon thing to see these birds,

low attracted considerable attention.
When it got out near the river it
folded its wings and dropped to the
ground as If it had been shot Some
co!ored boys, who were playing near,
rushed up and captared it, His bird
ship was examined and no wounds of
any kind found about it. appeared
quite lively, and We are at loss to
account for its sudden descent. The

to the lake being nearly dry. On ar
irving upon the scene !. sight prescn-

abont 200 feet long by some 81 or 40
feet wide, 1.-THE remains Of u lake COW

were congregatetl thousands of fish,
Of all sizes, and several kinds, in the
midst of which, were plainly to be
seen humber Of gar, some being OF
great size. Usually gar prey upon tho
smaller fish, but in the presence. Of
common danger they seemed to be
careless oftheir proximity. Nor did the
fish seem to fear their deadly enc
mics, but f1oundered around them iu
the muddy water in shoals. Con
ceiving it to be a good time to de-
stroy the gar, pistols and guns were
procured, aud about !. dozen of the
vpracious creatures slain. One1.,was
killed which measured in length 6
feet u inches and 80 inches in girtl,.
The lake has never been known to
be dry, but if dry weather continues
few days more, not drop of water
will be left in it, and all the fish must
die. Already many are dead and it is
feared that should they all perish it
may give rise to sickness. Mr.. Aaron

A Generous Emperor.

The Emperor Francis Joseph Of
Austria is a generous host. He gave
dinner the other day to Prince Nix
ita of Montenegro, and when it was
over escorted his guests out into the
park surrounding the palace. As they
stood there smoking, beautiful Ian
dau dawn by an equally beautiful
pair of horses swept up the avenue.
The Prince observed that the bnrnees
aud panel bore the arms of Monte
negro, wllereupon tl.@ Emperor turned
and informed his guest that the car
riage and horses were intended as 4
surprise to him, and begged him to
accept them as u souvenir Of Ills visit
to Vienna. With sparkling eyes the
Prince thanked his host. The dinner
which this episode succeeded WAS a
picturesque one the service was OF
solid gold, the center pieces being
well known antique works of art.
Prince Nikita wore gorgeous Monte
negrin dress, and WAS quite formid
able from the snail arsenal Of knives,
daggers and chased pistols stuck in
his belt. The meal itself barely lasted

Yellow Fever in Louisiana.
Thibadoux Sentinel Oct %

This disease still fingers in Ber-
wick's Bay, Morgan. City, Bayou
BHnf and along the Atchafalaya
river and Bayou Tcche as far as CEN
treville, but from the best information
obtained here, the fatality is not
great. Mr.. j. s. Perkins, who resides
near Raceland, after losing three per-
sous in his family removed with the
other members of his family to AS
sumption. There is still sickness in
some parts Of the bayou near Raceland
but not considered yellow fever, aud
no deaths occurring. At Lafourche
Crossing the telegraph operator has
been very low with the yellow fever,
but there are no other cases there.
In the B:ulee Texana in Assump-
ton the plague continues. There
have been some few deaths lately but
our information from that settlemet
is limited.
There has been a case Of yellow
fever in the Malbrough neighborhoud
in the rear Of Tlibodanx, which is
convalescent. In Thibodaux there is
no sickness of any kind.
