BATON ROUGE rs THE CAPITAL

Our heart is filled with most joyful
emotions as we announce the well
come tidings to our long expectant
community, that the Constitution has,
beyond shadow of a doubt, obtained
its ratification by an overwhelming
popular majority. Baton Rouge has
thus regained the Capital, and new
era is dawning before its inhabitants.
Our city will from this moment at
tract the attention of the outside
world to its many natural advantages
aspwell as to the fertile country
around us, which will also feel the
effects of its growth and prosperity.
Our citizens must now look to the
future as they turn their eyes to
wards the changed condition of affairs
and awaken from their letllargy so
that thrift and enterprise may charac-
terize them wherever our community
is mentioned. In exact proportion
to the pu bic spirit that must be
manifested, will the results he reached.
A mountain, figuratively speaking,
has been removed, leaving in its stead
n fertile valley which requires but the
industry of the husbandman to bring
forth its golden harvests.
The little jealousies, the petty
chickering's that unavoidably exist
between residents of an urban town,
should now give way in order that
we may join hands together to further
the general good. Henceforth we
must be up and doing to fulfill the
condition expected Of us by the
State.
The sum of Thirty-five thousand
dollars, is to be raised, which is but
an insignificant amount as compared
to the returns that it will bring to us.
Every cent of it will be spent here in
addition to the large appropriation
that the General Assembly will be
required to make in rebuilding the
Capitol; all of which will find its
way into the hands of our mechanics
and laborers first, and through them,
TO those Of our traders and business
men.
Our citizens must agree with us
that the time for prompt action has
arrived and that the American motto
of "go-head" ought to he the only
one in order for the future.
Apprehending the result that has
been reached through the late cleo
ton, our City Council has post
poned it's regular meeting until Mon
day next, in order 10 lnaugurate tile
necessary steps towards achieving the
ends in view.
We suggest that after they will
have transacted the ordinary bust
ness, they hold conference with the
= committee already appointed for the
purpose, so thatimmediate action may
be taken.

We had followed the Democratic
standard in several campaigns,
through victory and defeat, but al
ways with ranks unbroken and
we'll closed. Thus when our lines
were driven back, it was only to re-
turn towards the enemy shoulder to
shoulder with our trusty companions,
with more determination than ever
until success should crown our efforts.
All! we can well remember that dark
period in our past history when on
election days, when the grey dawn of
morning would unfold to our gaze the
dense masses of the immovable sup
porters of the accursed Radical party
as they stood at the polls with those
hellish ballots, that contained naught
but humiliation and distress to our en-
tire population; when our women
anxiously awaited news and prayed
in their hearts for the safety of their
relatives and the liberation of our un-
fortunate State. '..
And the hour at last came in 1876,
when Nichols and Wiltz were elected
by the Democratic masses of our loyal
citizens. We never will forget the day
theirinauguration, when with thous-
ands OF others we escorted the Gov
ernor's carriage up Camp street, in
New Orleans, to St. Patrick's Hall, to
see the chosen leaders of the people

TEACH GIRLS A TRADE.

Surely girls who are capable of earn
ing an honest living for themselves ought
to and can marry to much better advan-
tage than those who must forever depend

not marry except she marries for love,
and love alone. But your other damsel
of the useless hand-why, she must
marry anyway. Papa may not live
always, and he may not leave her for
tune when he dies. If she cannot have
husband whom she loves and respect
she is obliged, by the pressure of her
own helplessness, to take the best she
can get, or run the risk of having no
one to support her. Horrible thought |!
Any girl of average intellect, over twen-
ty years of age, ought to be ashamed
to confess that she could not, if neces-
sary, do something to provide for her.

In DANGER.-If there ever was mild
and calm teacher, it was Christ; and yet,
when one asked Him, care there few
that be saved % He said, "Strive to
enter in at the strait gate; for many, |
say unto you, will seek to enter in, and
shall not be able" The gate was built
for entering. it was designed expressly
for that purpose, and God desires that
men shall enter, and has made arrange
ments for all to enter; and yet, He saw
reasons that led him to say, calmly and
affectionately. but plainly, "Strive-
agoniSe-to enter in; for many will seek
to enter, and shall not be able"
know not how you feel, but one
word from the lips of Christ is more po-
tent with me than all the reasonings of
philosophy. believe in Him. And, see
ing that there was danger, He was at
least honest when He declared that the
circumstances in which men lived we're
such that we should agonize that is to
say, Put forth every effort-to enter eter-
nal life. When Christ speaks thus, l
know that there is mischief in the air;
l know that there is peril about; know
that there is danger which may we'll ar
rest the attention and call out the utmost
skill and exertion of man. l know that
some have feeling of security; but it
is unwise, it is fatal. No man is in so
much danger as he that thinks there is
no danger.

FODDER CoRN.-ln planning out the
work of the season, every farmer who
keeps dairy will find it advantageous
to set aside piece of good land for fod-
der corn. A large amount of excellent
fodder can be raised with but little labor,
and the crop is ready for cutting at a
time when the grass in the pastures
begins to fail. Most people SOW soiling
corn to thickly. 1t is frequently sown
broadcast and the growth is comparative
ly small, besides being of inferior value.
Others SOW in drills; but many of the
best farmers now plant their corn for
fodder in hills. The hills are made nearer
together than ordinary corn is planted,
and the crop is harvested when the ears
are we'll developed, but before the ripen-
ing process has commenced. o. M. Tink-
ham of Pomfret, uses Stowell's evergreen
sweet corn for fodder, and sows in drills
at the rate of one and half bushels to

apart. He cuts it twenty. -four hours be-
fore using. so that it can become thor

A superstitious old japanese woman
holds probably the most remarkable
promissory note on record. She was
afflicted with gangrene of her left leg,
and after trying all known remedies in
vain, the doctor was compelled to ampu-
tate it, and put it in alchol to take away
for examination. The old woman raised
a loud outcry at this, saying that if the
leg was taken away she could not use it
in heaven when she died, but would be
compelled to hobble about to all eternity.
The physician to allay her superstitious
fears, drew up promissory note binding
himself to take good care of the member
during her life, and at her death to re-
store it in ample time to afford her its
use in the world to come.

No, my son, cheek is not better than Wis
dom: it is not better than honest modesty,
it is not better than anything. Don't lister
to the siren who tells you to blow your OWL
horn or it will never be footed upon. The
world is not to be deceived by cheek, and
it does search for merit, and when it finds
it. merit is rewarded. Does General Grant
90 around blowing his own horn? Did ht
ever crowd himself in and elbow his way
ahead, like man with dead d-head ticket,
nlunpine for the best seats at the circus!
Cheek never deceives the world, son. Ii
appears to do SO to the cheeky man, but hs
il the one who is deceived, Did you know
one cheeky man in all your acquaintance
who is not reviled for his cheek the mo
ment his back is turned? Is not the world
continually drawing distinctions between
cheek and merit? Almost everybody hates
the cheekym man, my son. Society tires of the
brassy glare of his face, the hollow tinkling
of his cymbaline tongue, the noisy assump-
ton of his forwardness. The triumphs OF
cheek are only apparent. He bores his way
along through the world, and frequently
better people give way for him. But so
they give way, my boy, for man with
paint pot in each hand Not because they
respect the man with the paint pots, partic-
ularly, but because they want to take care
of their clothes. Avoid cheek, my son.
You can sell goods without cheek; and your
customers won't run and hide in the cellar
when they see you coming. -Hawkeye.

"a I &
the profitable employment Ut the con
viets. 1t has beeii suggested that the
State purchase Ii farm, or "a number OF
farms, and work the convicts on its
own account. This again, involves II
large expenditure of money, as well
an experiment. 1t might pay-and pos
sibly it might not. 1t would be an
experiment at any rate, and one that
will involve very considerable out
lay of money in the purchase of farms,
the building of houses and fences, the
employment of managers, stocking
the farms with mules, horses, farming
utensils, etc., etc. Whether this would
be wise at any time, and especially
whether the people are now prepared
to submit to such an increase OF tax
alton as might be necessary, are very
proper and very grave questions to be
considered.
There is one thing certain the
present system is not only selfsupport-
ing, but actually yields net income
of fseveralthousand dollars to the State,
and it may be just possible, that for
the present we had as well let well
enough alone. But, as stated in the
outset, we are not advocating any system.
Our object is to get the question start
ed, so that our people, and especially
the representatives of the people in
the next Legislature, may be led to
mature and proper thought on the
subject.
