THE NEGRO EXODUS.

New Orleans. April 1o.-A responsible
man who has just arrived from East Carroll
reports that the laborers of the parish are
completely demoralized and that i $500 able
bodied negroes left there three days ago for
Kansas. At 8 p. N. on the ID inst, when
the legally-elected police jury was in session
at Lake Providence, the parish seat, eight
bulldosers, with cooked revolvers, entered
the court house and, holding a pistol at the
head of every member Of the jury, compelled
him to sign a resignation. A majority Of
these officers are negroes. and the Times
correspondents informant states that the
colored men of the parish at once called a
mass meeting and, deciding that the elective
franchise afforded absolutely no security
determined to abandon the parish with theil
families. The 1900 who haye already left
are said to be the advance guard, who, a.
soon as they have secured labor, will senc
for the old men, women and children. Til,
Times correspondents informant says tina
within three months there will not be
negro left in East Carroll.

PLEASANT PRAIRIE.
Our snow is wasting away.

Our show is wasting away.
Mr. d. W. Curtis, Sec. of the Wis
consin Dairymen's Association. visited
the Dairy farm of z. G. Simmons on
Friday last.
l.. ID. Stewart and family have left
Pleasant Prairie, the country of snow
and ice, and gone to the land of sum-
mers, (Somers.)
MI. and Mrs. Chas. Bruce, of Fox
river, were visiting friends here Sat
urday and Sunday. They are always
welcome.
The gallant Pleasant Prairieans ever
on the alert to furnish something new
and attractive, have secured the servi-
ces Of Mr.. Henry Nashburn and Sis
ter, OF Ills, as singers at their new
dime reading to be held Saturday eve
ming, Feb. LIST at the church near Lu-
cas- corners. Mr.. w. possesses a me-
lodlous tenor voice and his sister o
rich alto, which, together with the su
perlor Bass of Mr.. Newell Hunt and
good soprano voices, will render the
musical department unusually pleas
ing 1t is intended that this shall be
one of the best readings of the season.
A number Of rumors have been afioat
concerning a young man, who attend
ed a party at the Lucas House and the
next day was seen with a bandage over
his eye. The facts, as nearly as could
be learned, are as follows:
A select dancing party came out
from your city to Lucas Hall, the eve
ming of the DIST inst. During the eve
ming, a party of Pleasant Prairie
roughs, John and James Rooney and
James Tobin, came to the hotel and
wanted to go up stairs and dance. Mr.,
Lucas refused them permission. When
the party broke up and started for Ke-
nosha, the aforementioned gentlemen
GU hitched UP their horses, drove I'D
behind and by some of the cutters,
tearing off a portion of one Of them.
After getting ahead, they would stop
in places where the other teams could
not pass. At this. Mr.. John Gallaghan.
Clerk of the Circuit Court, who was
one OF the dancing party, got out and
demonstrated with the parties, when
one OF them, James Rooney, struck
him across the forehead with the butt
end of his whip, infiicting a painful
and somewhat dangerous wound. At
this date, Rooney has not been arrest
ed. although a warrant has been is
sued. Mr.. Gallaghan is recovering ran
idly, and is now able to resume the du-
ties Of his office.
A large number of the Pleasant
Prairians went out to Mr.. r. w. Wal
dos on Friday evening last, to attend
the Oyster Sociable. Judging from
the evident good spirits of the parties
Oh returning, pleasant time must
have been experienced

The Hartford herald., 1879-09-10

DEAR SIR: In declining a proposal
which / trust you will believe 1 appre-
eiate as the highest compliment you
could possibly have paid me, / beg to
assure you, in all sincerity, that upon
review of my own dement's il is my be
lief that my refusal of your offer of
marriage is the best and most unselfish
return i can make you. Believe me,
dear sir, yours sincerely.
PINK DOMINO.
My DEAR EDWIN: There is nothing
i'm the world / value more than your
friendship. You suggest to me the
adoption of a course by which should
most certainly lose it. How crueli
how unkindI But the strength of my
regard makes me invulnerable to marry
you, and such hope always to remain.
Ever your sincere friend,
ANGELINA
DEAR SIR You ehanced to state ae-
cidentally in a recent conversation that
your digestion was not good. This be-
ing the case, / feel it would be unwise
for me to accept the proposal you have
just made, tor amiability of temper and
chronic dyspepsia, as know too well
from my dear fathers case, are utterly
incompatible one with the other. A
man with bad digestion can, alas,
never make a good husband. Yours,
sympathetieally, SARAHAcToN.

Presidential Possibilities

Republicans have begun i'm great Sc
robustness to figure upon the outcome OF
the Presidential election of 1880. OF
course many of them indulge i'm the be-
lief that there is no uncertainty about
the matter, and that any man nOmi-
mated by that party will win the race.
But when the knowing ones sit down
to calmly count the vote it begins to
look dubious to them, then as they pro-
gress visions of defeat trouble them, and
then a sort of conviction takes possess
sion of them that do what they will,
the Democrats may win, the whole
proceeding ending in the drowning
man clutching at "a straw. BY a judi
cious use of arithmetic everybody can
figure out majority for his party and
his pet candidate before the election.
Republicans of "a sanguine tempera-
ment will have no difficulty i'm rolling
up a stately column of Electoral votes
by counting all the doubtful Northern
and a few of the closer Southern States
for their side; and Democrats whose
confidence is equal to their hunger for
Office, can easily satisfy themselves that
their party must win by counting the
vote of the solid South, and all the
doubtful Northern States for their tick
ct.
The total number of votes i'm the next
Electoral College will be the same as in
the last, namely, 1863. They are distrib-
uted as follows:
