The Grand Fancy Dress Ball of
The Alexandra Fire Department, ac-
cording to previous notice, comes of
1.-THE Exchange Ball Room, on Tues
day next, the 22d of this month.
Coming as this Ball does, right after
the Lenten season, we think it just
and fittingly appropriate that the
''beauty and gallantry" ofour Town,
Pineyille and surrounding country
should attend, and grace and lend
enchantment and hilarity to the
'sFire Boys" Of our Town. None bnt
the brave and meritorious deserve
the pretty smiles of woman, there.
fore, let their practical and attend
ant charms and graces, carry out
this truism TO the letter of the Ball
Room.

THE LATEST.

The Army Appropriation Bill, as
amended by the Democrats, with the
Test Oath, Supervisors and Soldiers
at the Polls clause tackled on, has
passed the House by vote Of 14S to
1872, purely party test, and, at this
writing, has gone to the Senate for
final enactment there.
Herewith we appesd latest tele-
grams of interest:
WASHINGTON, April 8.-Mr. Bay
ard this morning asked the unani
nous consent of the Senate TO con-
slider, without reference to the Judi.
ciary Committee, and pass the bill
to repeal sections $40 and S2l of the
Revised Statutes, which impose a
test oath upon jurors in the Federal
courts. Mr.. Bayard made an ear
nest appeal for the immediate pass
age of the bill, but E+lmunds, of
Vermont, objected to the repeal of
section S21, and the bill therefore
goes to the Judiciary Committee.
Nothing could more signally Illus,
trate the raucourous hostility Of the
Republican leaders for the South
than this course of Edmnnds. 1t al
so marks their hypocrisy. Mr.. Bay.
ards motion puts the Democratic
party in Congress on stronger ground
than they have heretofore occupied,
the Republicans having pretended
that they were all ready to agree to
this repeal of the test oath as sep
arate bill.
WASHINGTON, April l0.-The Bell
case was disposed of to-day in the
Senate by partisan vote, and
! Mr.. Bell admitted to his seat as pre-
dicted in my dispatch some days
ago. The debate has been very
able. The majority report Of the Com
mittee On Privileges aid EIet lions
has been oyerruled, but the question
is a difficult one, and no one ones
/ lions the integrity and ability of the
Senators who made the majority
report.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE fol.
lowing are the assignments of the
Louisiana members on the House
Committees just made by Speaker
Randall: Mr.. Robertson, chairman
of Committee on Levees and the I'm.
provement of the Mississippi River
Mr.. Gibson on Ways and Means
Mr.. Elan on the Census and Nava
Affairs. Mr.. Ellis on Pacific Rail
road and on Coinage, Weights and
Measures. Mr.. Acklen on Com.
merce and on Mines and Mining
And Mr.. King on Foreign. Affairs
and Expenditures of the State De
partment. These assignments seem
practically to guard the special in
teresis of the State.

always remember with pleasure the
bright and happy home it was their
good fortune to see. Devoted hus-
band, most loving father, kind and un-
selfish friend, most amiable to all, it
was impossible that his home should be
anything but happy.
The last years of his life were embit-
tered by the loss of a loving and we'll
beloved daughter, By his bad health,
and also by business troubles, bnt not
withstanding all his trials, his kind
and genial smile never deserted him.
He leaves to mourn his death, low
ing wife and children, fond sister and
numerous other relatives, besides a
host of friends.
That God has blessed the dear, kind
old man, is the prayer of one whom he
has loved truly, and who has always
loved him dearly.-( Natchitoches Pm
dictator.
In this Town, on the evening of
Saturday, April IL, 1879, MARTHA
S. STEWART, wife of Captain John
F. Graham.
The deceased and lamented good
woman, affectionate and faithful vile
and doting mother, was born in Knox
nbee County, Miss, on the 2Sth day of
December, 1888, and came to Alexan-
dra in the year 1s45, where she has
lived ever since. She was well and
universally beloved and known as one
who had humbly and to the full length
of her means, bestowed her charities
on the poor and sick, and surely when
she received her "crown Of DEATH"
we'll might she claim that her charities
in this world had been done. And
well, faithfully and truthfully did she
act cher humble part here below" rs a
