Historical 1e iniscencos,
THE FAlsEl. Ar.An
OR, THE INDIAN AND HIS YENIsoN.s

Twas q cold stormy night ii the
Fall Of 1878, and Miner Spicer and
his wife had drawn their seats IN
front Of the blazing fire which roared
in the large open fireplace Of their
cabin, and were talking Of absent
friends. Together with his brother
Amos, Mr.. Spicer had removed from
New London, Conn, to the neigh.
borhood Of Akron, Ohio, in 1911,
and erected his log cabin in the midst
Of the forest, which was fast being
thinned out before the strong arm
of the new settler, and giving place
to green fields and pasture lands.
The hoarse moaning Of the wind, as
tsighed through the boughs Of the
trees, and the heavy pattering Of
the rain on the roof, served to height
en- the comfort and increase the en-.
joyment Of their chimney corner;
and it is not to be wondered at,
when we consider the subject Of con-
versation, that they should sit long
after the usual period for retiring in
cosy chat, nor dreamed of the pass.
ing hours. A sudden stop to their
colloquy was caused by the sound of
horses hoofs approaching the door,
and III a moment after, a shout from
without intimated that some one
desired to attract the attention of the
inmates of the house. Mr.. Sniner
arose, opened the door, and passed
out into the night. He could re-.
cognize the outline Of q man on
horseback, but the darkness, which
shrouded all objects in gloom, pre-.
vented him from distinguishing the
features or anything whereby he
might guess at the character of his
visitor. To his question of ssWho's
there?" volley of sounds was ut
tered by the strangers unintelli-
gible to Spicer as so much Greek or
Arabic. He was somewhat angered
at such an attempt to answer bis
simple question, and told the other
that he must speak English, or he
would unhorse him. Bv this time
his eyes had become accustomed to
the darkness, and he was able to
make out the stranger to be an
Indian, mounted on a small sized,
rough and wiry looking pony, who,
besides his master, bore on his back
the carcass Of a deer Rv sions and

The Fever.

Since the 29th of July the City OF
New Orleans has been exceedingly
healthy, all cases of the yellow fever
having disappeared. But our latest
dates received by the Silver City, on
Monday night, report that it has re-
appeared there in sporadic FORM
DR.. Herrick, Secretary Of the Board
of Health, has telegraphed North
that there are two sporadic cases OF
yellow fever in the City, both on
Constance street, near Washington
One of these cases, a little boy, died
on Friday, and the other has been
removed to Dumaine street, Third
District. However, it is the almost
unanimous opinion of physicians in
the City that the atmospheric condi.
tions do not exist which would rem,
der the fever spreading possibility.
Four cases of yellow fever are repor'
ted as having broken out in starks.

GEN. +. N. OGDEN.

In casting about for Governors in
the next election, there is one whose
name would reflect honor and credit
on our fair State, and who, if hon
ored with the position, would give
quiet, peace and order TO our long
distressed and disturbed people.
speak of Gen. F. N. Ogden, who
in our days of trouble and oppres
sion was the beloved leader of that
gallant band, who caused Kellogg
and his followers to hold and not fur
ther "ruin" whilst they "ruled' our
oppressed people, and bringing forth
from the renowned Sheridan, in his
famed Bandiiti order, "Pm not
afraid" 1t was Ogden and his COM
rades, who were the prop and stay of
our people in giving us our Nichols
Government against Packard and the
Returning Board. 1t was Ogden and
his comrades who took possession Of
the Supreme Court, and placing our
honored Chief Justice Manning and
his associates in their seats--and
lastly it is to Ogden and his COM
rades, whether Ogden is Governor
or not) to whom we will again look
in case of trouble, to tide us over
our difficulties. Gen. Ogden in all
his public acts, has been guided only
by patriotism to his State and love
for his people. He has never sought
political prcfcrment, but when his
'lulics to his State and people were
needed, he retired to the pIiva e
walks of life, beloved and hoLore
by all who remember the l4th OF
September, and love freedom and
honor. Let the office seek the man.
and in honoring Gen. Ogden as Gov
ernor Of Louisiana, no nobler and
purer son, Or just and sagacious ruler
could be found in our State, or one
who would more strictly guard her
interest or protect her honor. c.

LETTER FROM VERNON PARISH.
VERNON PAR, LA.,l
August 10. {

EDITOR DEMOCRAT
AS was predicted by many, the
new Constitution fails to give that
relief and satisfaction to the people
of this section, as was foresbadowed
by those who rejected everything but
a Constitutional Convention. 1t pro-
vides for the interest Of the "dear
people" in many respects-in the adj
ministration ofthe State government
by reducing State taxes, officers and
salaries, and then compels the poor
Parishes to make an annual debt of
from $500 to $1,000, which they can
not pay. For instance, the Parish
of Vernon has never held but one
Jury term of Court in any one year
since its creation, and two years Of
said time there was no term of the
District Court held or asked for
there being no reason for one. There
are no good reasons to assign for for
cling upon the Parish two Jury terms
annually, and every voter in this Pa
IRISH, and every Attorney and Judge
who have attended business here,
must be fully satisfied and know that
one Jury term is sufficient to trans
act all the business, and besides it is
all the people can pay for, without
raising the Parish tax above 10 mills
on the dollar, and yet the new Con-
stitution which was to relieve the
people, the poor farmer and tax
payer, says they must have two Jury
terms annually.
The Parish tax is now 10 mills on
the dollar, and it is all necessary and
used to defray the actual and neces-
sary expenditures annually of the
Parish government.
Notwithstanding there has never
been but one Jury term a year since
the creation of the Parish, and two
years of that time none, and the Pa
IRISH tax has never been less than 10
mills on the dollar, and the Parish
now having an outstanding debt that
the 10 mills cannot reach, the new
Constitution says we must have two
Jury terms of the District Court
This is one of the Objectionable fea
lures. The least that / can say, it
places the voter in very awkward
situation. He must vote for the new
Constitution in order to relieve him
self of State tax, and incur an annu
al Parish tax which cannot be paid,
and thereby the decentralization and
destruction of the Parish govern
ment, or vote against it. Which
will he do2 You who have an inter,
est and pride for self protection and
for the reduction of useless Parish
expenditures. You, who feel with
warm emotions, from patriotic
heart, for the rights, the welfare and
promotion of your own Parish gov
eminent, please answer. We arc
called on to cast vote to give the
, State partial relief and bankrupt the
Parish. -
The above are the views Of many
of the people of Vernon, and ask
that you give it place in your val.
liable paper.

DEMOCRATS AS CIVIL SER
VICE REFORMERS.

Since the Democrats came out at
st. Louis in 1876 as reformers, with
the greatest fraud Of the age at the
head of their ticket, their small cal
ibre stump-speakers and feeble
minded newspaper editors, voicing
the utterances of their stronger and
more pretentious leaders, have been
perpetually agitating the question
Of civil service reform. We do not
intend to make this text for dis
course on Democratic hypocrisy, for
it would be as preposterous as to
talk to man who has the power Of
vision about the sun shining. But
we will take occasion this one time
more to call attention to the viola
ton of the very principle in civil
service reform, upon which they
have made such an outcry agains'
Republicans. We mean the par
taken in political matters by Office
holders. -

bolted, nominated Governor Robin

son for reelection, was controlled
largely by State officials, who look
ed to the Governor for their daily
pap. M
What is claimed as the regular
Democratic organization in that
State is only a vast machine, opera
ted by Samuel ]. Tilden. He runs
the engine which propels the party
machinery, and Robinson is only a
part of the general machinery. The
most important parts of the ma
chinery is made up Of State Office,
holders, and it was the fact that
they might lose their official heads
if Governor Robinson goes out
that made them so tenacious
and unyielding in demanding his
nomination. Talk about machine
politicians. Tilden will tolerate
none other. He does his work at
midnight, in bis closet, with none
present except lackey who dances
attendance upon him and does bis
bidding without asking questions
He is a tyrant and trusts no man
who has manhood enough to rebel
against his edicts. His word with
those to whom he looks for aid in
developing his Machiavellian
schemes is seThus saith the Lord, F"
and must be SO accepted. And yet
his supporters have the impudence
to talk about civil service reform.

WEDNESDAY. SEPT. IL, 1879.

Col. A. s. CoLYAR has recently
returned from New York, where he
is reported to have held an inter-
view with cestain holders of Tens
nessee bonds. He has been inter-
viewed by an american reporter,
and gives it as his opinion that suit
will be brought against the State at
an early day. He says that emf
nent lawyers hold that the third
section of the Funding Bill Of 1873
was in the nature Of q contract with
the bondholders, and being such, it
could not be repealed by the subse-
quent Legislature, as the Constitu,
ton forbids the Legislature to pass
laws impairing contracts. 1t is also
claimed that so much Of the Fund.-
ing Bill as provides for q
forty cents tax was Of the same
nature, and that the State was
bound to collect that rate Of
taxes and to apply the receipts,
first to the settlement Of the in
terest on the bonds. Col. Colyar re-
CARDS the situation as one of gravity,
and thinks the bondholders ara do
termined to enforce their rights in
the courts. IF they can do it, no
one can blame them for it. The
State has manifested no disposition
to compromise on a fair basis, and
if We have to pay the entire debt,
We will have only ourselves to
blame. sA2-<
