SHAKESPEARE DOES REPEAT.

The old expression, shakespeare
never repeats" must go. The fol-
lowing communication effectually
settles the question, and our CORE
spondent proves that the great
author did repeat, at least in one
instance:
ANTE CRY, La, Dec. 16, 1879.
EDITOR ST. TAMMANY FARMER:
There has been an expression 60
ing the rounds of the press for
a number Of years. that ''Shaks-
peare never repeats" | saw the
same expression in last weeks issue
of your paper.
By referring to Act III, Scene III,
of Gas You Like It." You will find
the following:
..And then from hour to hour, we rot
and rot.
Ind thereby hangs a tale!"
Again, in Act ~, Scene l, of
Tanning the Shrew," you will find
the following:
'Out of their saddles into the dirt;
Ind thereby hangs a taIe,'
So, you see, Mr. S. did repeat.
Yours, etc, J. W. A.

Coon ADVICE. = The Augusta
Chronicle says: ct will be well for
Southern planters to keep their
heads clear, notwithstanding the
boom in the cotton market. There
is no reason to believe that present
prices will be realized next winter.
Ii cotton is raised the coming year,
to the exclusion of provisions, the
crop will sell for six or seven cents
a pound, and the planter will be
bankrupted.

Mr.. Charles Parnell, member of
the English Parliament, and leader
of the Home Rule party in Ireland,
where he has recently been taking
an active part in the Irish land agi-
tation. will sail from Liverpool for
New York to-day. When young
man, Mr.. Parnell refused to study
law, because he was not sure of be-
coming a celebrated lawyer. He
took no particular interest in Irish
politics, and it was the execution Of
the Manchester rescuers that sent
him to Parliament as Home
Ruler. His mother and three sis
tiers live at Bordentown, New Jersey.
Extensive preparations are being
made in New York, by the various
Irish Associations, to give him a
grand reception.

WHO SHALL BE OUR NEXT
SPEAKER :?

We have hardly gone through
the excessive hardships of our re-
cent triumphant election, than we
are Immediately anxious to know
who will be our next speaker?
As far as we can learn, the name
Of Hon. John S. Billiu, of La
fourche:s is highly mentioned in
connection with that most i'm
portant and responsible position.
No one is more competent or
worthy to fill that high ofice-no
one would perform the arduous
duties of Speaker with more i'm
partiality or distinction than Hon.
John S. Billiu. Since the we'll
known Legislature of 1876, he has
been standing member from his
parish. HI. has just been success
fully reelected for the fourth time,
showing thereby the trust reposed
III him by the citizens of Lafourche
Everyone remembers the import
ant and difficult part he played in
the programme which elected Hon.
L. A. Wilt as Speaker in 1875
He was charged with ithe leading
character, and the dignifed cool
ness with which he performed his
duty will long be remembered by
all his friends, who had placed him
forward as Speaker of our last
Legislature, when he declined, in
favor of Hon. John G. Moncure.
Although other names, equally as
honorable. may be brought forward
sin connection with the Speakership,
we feel confident that the friends
of Mr.. Billiu, throughout the State,
will sincerely indorse him as our
next Speaker.

ENCHANTING IN THE CHER
SONESUS.

Now that DR.. Schliemann and
Mr.. Layard have exhausted the an
tiouities of Greece and Assyria. ex-
plorers are turning their attention
to the Chersonesus. Several dis
coveries have been made of late, and
many interesting articles have been
added to the collection at the Her
mitage in st. Petersburg. In the
tomb of a woman who died some
1000 years ago, were found the box
of vermillion and the stencil with
which she used to exc out her natn-
raj charms. The director OF the
museum at Kertch has been fortu-
nate enough to unearth the tomb
of some high-born damsel dating
from the third century before Christ.
It contains an enormous collection
of valuable and interesting iewelry.
Among other things found was a
gold collar, ornamented with "A lions
head at each end; a gold crown, an
inch wide, the outer part formed of
rings linked together, and orna-
mented with fine stones in the CEN
ter; swan with Cupid on its wings;
u pearl collar with clasps, and gold
EARRINGS, with two pomegranates
of oval form. and u small piece OF
malachite in the center. Numer-
ous other discoveries have been
made, and the present incursion OF
sayantsthreatens to clear all that
the Huns and Cossacks of the mid
d.e ages have left OF antiquity.
