BY A LADY FRIEND.

Dear friend, twas sad to see thee 60,
And many an eye did burn;
But, oh tits sweet to feel and know
That some day you'll return.
While far away from us you roam
Upon the broad and briny deep,
Do not forget your friends at home,
AS thoughts of you they'll ever keep.
Fragrant flowers will bud and bloom,
Starry nights will como and go,
Little birds will find their doom,
Winter winds will wildly blow.
Thus will three years glide away
Weary years to hearts that beat,
When on bright and happy day,
flood permits, your friends you'll meet
Should your cross be not the lightest,
Bear it firmly to the end.
Should your path be not the brightest,
Call on God guide to send;
Though all earthly friends forsake thee,
He will follow to the grave.
am sure he will never leave thee
One that is so true and brave.

Rene Aunte is the name of Gre
ole Frenchman who had his prelimi-
nary trial last Saturday, under the
henious charge of wife murder and
abortion, caused by violent blow
from bis hand. Aunte was placed
under the small bond of $3.50 for his
appearance at district court. While
this man may not be guilty of muir
der, his examination showed him to
belong to that class of british and
cowardly men who vent their con-
temptible spite on their wives.

It has been habit for our jailors
to take prisoners out occasionally to
get the benefit of days labor from
them. A few days ago one of them
made off and succeeded in making a
distance of nearly three miles before
he was overhanled. This is running
a useless and unwarranted risk, and
should not be allowed. If any one
wishes to use q prisoner he should
give bond for his safe keeping.

Mr.. Grant has the cabin and pilot
house of the little boat he is building
for Cane river about completed, and
by the time he gets his machinery
from the city the boat will be ready
for trial trip as soon as the engines
can be put in place. Everything is
snug and substantial, and the craft
looks as trim as duck. The under
taking of building boat at this
point was ridiculed at first, and Mr..
Grant deserves great credit for his
pluck and perseverance, in a worthy
and difficult undertaking.

Jim Garrett is the name of negro
preacher, who stole corn from Steve

pairs well with about nine ont Of ten
of all the rascally WHISKY guzzlers
and thieving hypocrites who set up
among their colored brethen in this
parish as preachers. 1t is high time
the negroes who respect themselves
should turn in on these scoundrels
