The trainers Of the new con
stitution did IA wise thing when
thew prescribed that the Coroner
should be a doctor of medicine.
This takes that important office
out of the mire OF politics and
insures the selection Of cOmpe
tent men to discharge its duties.
The functions of Il Coroner are
peculiarly within the province OF
a medical practitioner, and our
only surprise is that it was SO
long given to laymen. The lsno
rance and want OF skill which,
but too often, characterized the
incumbent of the Office, especially
in strong Republican parishes: can
exist no longer, except iii those

cept the office. This is il conces
sion to ii profession which richly
deserves a recognition from the
hands of the law maker. 1t is
not for us to eulogize those who
have devoted their lives to the
"diviue art of healing" Suffer
ing humanity everywhere pre-
claims their praises. 1t was q
graceful act on the part Of il men
Der of another liberal profession

The Legislature.

Up TO the present writing we
know of 30 candidates who have
entered the field for legislative
honors, subject to the choice OF
the people at the primary e'ec
ton to be held on the 18th OF
September. And yet, Ii is more
important to select good and com
petent mel to make our laws
than to fill any other office III the
gift of the people. Under the
new constitution, the Legislature
will be called upon to pass II great
number of laws i'll order TO set
the machinery OF The new govern
ment into motion. AS an Instance
in point, an untried judiciary SyS'
tenn is to be put into operation
| and it will devolve upon the leg
isiative branch Of the govern
ment to tx che duties OF clerks
of court and sherlifs, and to pro
vide for their cOmpensatlons,
whether by salaries or by fee
bills; to fix the number of Justices
of the peace and define their ter
ritorial jurisdiction and to pro
vide for their emoluments; to
arrange the details attending the
mode of bringing up appeals to
the Circuit Courts, an entlrel,
new feature in our organic law
to legislate for the complex jud

parish Of Orleans where stamps
will be used for all legal dOcl

it is obvious that we should S

EUGENE ARAM-BY BULWER.


ordinary man whose name heads
this article, and he had actually
written the greater portion OF it,
when he determined to treat the
subject i'll prose.
The scene is laid in one of the
remote rural districts of England
at a beautiful little hamlet called
Gr3ssdale. The principal mag
nate of the place was named
Squire Lester, d man OF about
tifty-fve or six, of fine culture, |
aud OF more than ordinary attain
ments. A wldower, his whole
affection was lavished on his two
daughters, Madeline and Ellinor,
who appeared every way worthy
of the endearing tenderness OF
their father. While the beauty
of Madeline was Of the imperial
kind, that of Ellinor was of Il
quiet subdued nature. The beau
ty of Madeline dazzled by its
brilliancy, that of EIlillor charm
ell and captivaled 10y its lowell
ness.
The contrast was egnally strik-
ing between the characters OF the
two sisters. The imagination of
the elder had been nurtu:ed from
the earliest dawn of rcason Will!
works of the romantic school, and
her mind had in consequence,
become tinged with enthusiasm
and IA constant vearniag Tor some
thing above the common order
OF human beings. The soul OF
Ellinor, on the other hand, WAS
of a more practical cast oi char
acter, and much better calculated
to win the love of those aruunt
her than the dreamy, Utoplan
seniimentality If her brilliant
. sister.

The Ibcrvllle South supports
Hon. j.. II. AckleD, the present
incumbent, for the Forty-Seventh
Congress. The parish of Terre
bonnie Las instructed her dele
gates to vote for the same gentle
man. and we have no doubt that
the delegates from our parish will
also support Mr.. Acklen. The
people of Lafourche and Ter
rebOnne have reason to be salts
fed with the course of Mr.. Acklen
since he has been in Congress,
for he has secured two appropria
tons of ten thousand dollars each
for the removal of distractions
in bayou Lafourche, and also
an appropriation for preliminary
survey of bayou Terrebonne with
a view of securing the assistance
of the general government tor
the dredging out Of that stream
The people of the whole district
have reason to be satisfied with
the course of their present repre-
sentative, for he has been indies
fatigable i'll attending to their
wants and promoting their local
interests. We have mot heard
of any opposition to Mr.. Acklen
from any quarter and we are sat
isted that he will receive the
nomination by acclamation.

A CRAZED FANATICS HORRIBLE
DEED.-Chas. +. Freeman of Cohasseti
Mass, killed his FIVE year old daughter
on May I'd. He is Second Adventist,
and has been attending revival meetings
About week previous he claimed to
have received wonderful revelations" !"
and has not eaten or slept. He says the
Lord directed him to sacrifice his little
daughter, and declared she will rise in
three days. He sent word to the neigh
bors that he would make his revelation
known and offer an orthodox sacrfce.-
In the afternoon numbers of Second Ad-
ventists assembled at his house, bat the
child had then been killed. The little
one was transfxed with knife, and her
blood poured out upon table, impro-
vised as an altar. Freeman has driven
every one from the house and locked and
barred the doors and windows, and, hav-
ing firearms, threatens death to any one
who nterferes. lie Is alone with the dead
child, and goes through horrible incanta-

result in the resurrection OF the little one

was 10 draw a double barreled shot gun
on the Sheriff and posse who came Ia
levy on some Of his property. When the
men arrived at the gate. he walked TO the
door and pointed the gun at the first man,
aHd told them he would kin the first man
that entered the gate. He then invited
several of them into dinner, saying that

Officers they could not come on his place
When dinner was finished he told them
that they must leave now; he had ex-
tended the hospitslites of his farm, and
he was done with them. Not one of those
twenty-siE men had the pluck to disobey
or disregard what Tom Buford said, thus
showing that he was regarded as dan

A GooD UTAH JURY.-At last Nor
mon has been convicted in Mermondom's S
happy land. M lies, he of the three wives
and vile temper, has been adjudged by a
jury OF twelve of his peers to be guilty of
the crime of polygamy The jry consist
cd solely and entirely of Gentiles, as it
should have consisted. A man guilty of
murder is not 1t TO sit upon jury, with
eleven Of his fellow citizens, to decide
upon the guilt or innocence of any one
suspected of similar crime. Neither is
a man with plurality of ribs fit to Judge
OF the criminality of another in the same
fix. A stern example should be made of
Miles. The Government has dalied with
The question too long. It's laws have been
A. worthless as waste paper. It's Courts
have not punished. because its juries, be
ing controlled by the criminals, W ere not
convicted. Polygamists have laughed at
its enactments, and grown sarcastic over
its puny efforts at punishment. GentiIes
have been delighted with its. bombastic
assertions and disgusted with its milk and
water acts. They have witnessed for
years the sad spectacle of a Territory Of
the United States placing itself in defiance
OF the laws of the nation, recognizing
neither its will nor its wishes. 1t is time
that this were stopped, and if we can only
succeed in getting such jurics around the
Great Salt Lake as Miles was blessed
with, it may yet be said that American
laws are respected and complied with on
American soil.-Sderdmento Bee.
