GEoRoIA's CREDIT. The New York
Tribune says that Georgia is repu-
dlator. Our advice to all the States is
70 repudiate as Georgia has done. The
old Empire State Of the solid South
has more credit than she knows what
to do with, and even the Wall street
people were clamorous to get hold Of
her baby bonds. If all rumors are true,
-anr esteemed contemporary, the Tri-
bune, would do well to become re-
pudiator if thereby it's credit could be
enhanced as the credit of Georgia has
been. We submit this suggestion to
the serious consideration Of our es-
teemed contemporary. Atlanta Con-
stitution.

To LocATE.--Last spring we noticed
a visit to Lake Charles by G. A. Four
net, Esq, Of St Martinsyille, attorney
at law, and stated that Mr.. Fournet
would probably locate here permanently
for the practice Of his profession. We
see, by the Attakapas Sentinel, that
Mr.. Feurnet. In response to an invita-
ton 70 address the St Martin parish
democratic mass meeting at Breaux'
Bridge on the esth ult, addressed the
meeting in an eloquent speech, il the
course of which he alluded to his in
tended departure for Lake Charles
Mr.. Fournet was Parish Judge of st.
Martin for two terma lie will prob
ably locate here, to practice law, within
the next few weeks

DlssAr1srrEp.--All the ST. Landry

the convention couldn't nominate an

From CALcAsIEu Pass Tha,

FROM CALcAsIEU PAss.-There has
Ocen much sickness, of a very fatal
.ype'. = calcasieu Pass during the las,
lew weeks. There were six deaths in
the families Of Mr.. Landy, carpenter,
and Of Mr.. Frank Gonzales, the mer-
chant who 80 generously contributed
e the relief of his fellow sufferers from
the August cyclone. 1t will be re-
membered that the cyclone carried a
tidal wave across that portion of the
HnIf coast, filling all wells with salt
water, and drowning hundreds Of cat
tie, hogs and other animals. These
animals, with huge masses Of yepcta-
ton, we're heaped up in drifts BY the
waves, and their subsequent decompo-
sition developed q malarial atmosphere
which, with impure drinking water,
caused fatal disease among the people.
We are gratifed to learn that late rains
have furnished our neighbors at the
Pass with abundance Of pure water to
drink, and shat general health Is res
fored. Among the eight deaths report
ed was that Of Leopold Mudd, Esq,
Parish Recorder Of Cameron parish.

ORGANIZAITONA AT THE CENTRE

ORGANIZATION AT THE CENTRE.
We trust that whether the new Demo-
cratic U. S. Senate and House is organized
early or late, the Democrats in it will take
lesson from the Republicans in the Sc
lection of their officers. The positions in
their gift should be filled by thoroughly
reputable men from the States, men ac-
quainted intimately with the people of
the States from which they come and who
have been prominent in the political cam
paigns. They should be men with knowl-
edge, capacity and energy for the duties
they have to perform and for political Or
ganization as well, like the Republican
officers of the Senate and the late Repub-
