n bss been noticed that the English peo-
ple and authorities have ceased 70 feel any
interest In providing for additional Inter-
national Exhibitions Of industrial art IN
their own country. and the London
Times" speaks Of them . having become
mere business advertising contrivances. -
in fact they really are. The same thing
may Be said Of all public comparisons
and they are so generally recognized =
shows Of things that are for sale some
where, that IL requires q vast outlay Of
money TO render them attractive n over
some their Advertising character. 1t is
only 10 their influence upon the progress
Of manufactures that these displays are
really Of value. Thus, the first Worlds
Fair In London convinced the English thai
they we're ~lamentsbly inferior in the arts
Of design, and they applied themselves to
the correction Of this defect with 80 much
energy. that at the next Exhibition their
designs were found superior to the French.
In al the European shows the American
displays were ingenious and useful but
meagre in extent, and especially in works
Of design and ornament. There was there
fore . real need for : grand effort, such -

finish Of our art products. That having
been fully and most effectuallv done, 1t 10
mot conceivable that any additional laurels
can BE- gained by doing the same thing
over again : few years afterward. OF
course there will bea very large display,
no matter how frequent these shows may
be. Being important to business men,
there are establishments that, as . rule,
exhibit everywhere. But the device having

visitors from there at the Centennial be-
yond the interested parties. In the same
way, the more frequent these displays be-
come here the less attractive will they be
10 the domestic visitors.

IF it takes two Aogsheads to make a
pipe, would rather not furnish any more
fellows with free tobacco.
1t is said that pile of wood eight feet
long and four feet wide contains Il cord,
but it would take rope, in my opinion, to
hold it firmly.
Entertainments and excavations are es-
timated by the cubic yard, but they don't
generally fall according to estimation.
Three scruples make a dram, but we
know men that make no scruples to a

1t takes three feet to make pace, but
we have long legged clerk here, that
can keep mp pretty good pace with two
1t takes $40 to make an eagle, but if
we lose one il would make us GU oWl.
1t is said that ten mills make a cent, but
we know plenty of mills in our parish
that d0n't make a cent.

hours to make Il day, would advise every
one to work by the month.

tsThe following relative to the selec-
tion of officers for the next Congress is
from Washington dispatch: Randall
and Blackburn are confident, but Carlisle,
of Kentucky, or McMahon, of Ohio, have
earnest support for the Speakership.
Should the Speakership so North, the
of Kentucky, and Caldwell, of Alabama.
Should it go South, Stenger, of Pennsyl-
vania, in consideration of his abandoning
his chances for the Secretaryship of the
Senate, is the probable Clerk. Col. Polk,
OF Missouri, is making vigorous fight
Tor the Doorkeepership, but Gen. + ield
will probably retain the place. Col
Thomason will continue Sergeant-at-

THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS,

Washington correspondent has this
to say Ut the attitude of the President
against the coming Congress! The three
bones of contention ut the extra session
of Congress will be, of course, the repeal
of the supervisors of election law, the re-
peal of Jurors test oath law and tho re-
peal of the section of the Revered Statu-
ties authorizing the use of troops at polls.
In the consideration of at least one of
these measures the Democratic party in
the Forty-sixth Congress and the Prcsi-
dent has made no secret to some gentle
men of his opinions in regard to these
three measures. The jurors test oath
laws and the law authorizing the use OF
troops at the polls he regards as rem
nants of "wor" Legislation. The first are
no" almost dead-letter. lie would not
oppose Congress in bill repeating the
statute that authorizes the presence of
troops at the polls. OF the proposed re-
peal of the supervisors Ia " no takes a
different view. He looks on the law as a
safeguard to the purity of the ballot.
He does not consider the presence of SUI
pervisors of electors necessary only in
New York, but rs equally so in every
State in the United States. Thinking rs
he does, it is evident that a direct conflict
between him and Congress is inevitable.
There will be no money to carry on the
executive, judicial and Legislative branch
es OF the government, which means
among others things, that members of
Congress will have to go without their
salaries. All but sixty members of the
next House will be new men, who will
not look agreeably at the prospect of no
money. Several leading Democrats are
doubtful it they can keep the next House
together to the bitter end on the repea!
of the supervisors law.

THE DUTY OF DELEGATES.

Vii "eouay ueAI lue peO-
pie Of this Parish will be CALI
ed upon to select a Delegate
to represent this Parish in the
Constitutional Convention that
assemblies in New Orleans on
the 2lst day Of April next.
In West Feliciana, two candi-
dates are out for this office.
both claiming to be the nomi>
nee Of the Democratic
party. 1t is altogether a Sec
ondary consideration as to
what wing of the party either
of these men belong to. The
question for the voter to con-
slider previous to casting his
ballot, is not entirely a par
ty one but equally, if not of
greater importance. After the
induction of negro supremacy
in Louisiana it is a notorious
fact that many millions OF dol
lars of worthless bonds were
issued and are now out
standing, for which the State
never received one cents
worth of good. It would be
as unjust for our impoverish-
ed people to he forced to
settlement Of this iniquitous
debt, as it would be iniquitous
for them 10 repudiate the hon
est obligations of the State.
Then, we sayit is very impor-
tant that the people know
the minds Of the aspirants ON
this important subject before
rushing to the polls and cast
ing their ballot.
Another important question
that should he settled in the
mind OF every voter, is as to
the status Of candidates on the
Capital question. At the last
election 1t was decided by the
almost unanimous vote of the
country Parishes that Baton
Rouge is the best place for
the seat Of Government. 1t
will be the unqualified prov>
ince Of every country delegate
to not only vote but work for
clause i'll the new Constitu-
ton re-establishig Baton
Rouge as the seat of our
State Government. This du-
ty will be very plain when
they take into consideration
the fact that there was no
warrant of law for the remo-
val Of the Government to New
Orleans. It was done by
a military administration. re-
CARELESS Of the choice of the
people; without any form OF
legality, and on the ascendant
cy ofthe radical party to power,
no change was desired by the
thieves, as New Orleans was
much the better base for
working their corrupt schemes
and the pillage OF the State
Treasury.
We say, then, to the suf-
fragan, be he black, or be he
white think we'll before you
cast your vote, and REMEM-
Der THE DEMOCRATIC party is
PLEDGED TO THESE AND MANY
MORE CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS:
AND REMEMBER JUDGE THOMAS
BUTLER is the Democratic
Candidate from West Felician a
for the position as delegate.
All lovers of liberty anG
prosperity should cast their
ballot for the distinguished
nominee of the Democratic
party.
