u In the folly, no less than Gin
the adversely of our best friends we
often fnd something that does not
displease us.'' Hence we piously
believe that some who read this
article, will even read it through,
this much, if only to crafty them
selves. Meanwhile, we can assure
them that if their assent shall be
gained to the chief and practical
portion of what follows, the subse-
quent matter may not prove uninter-
esting. A large portion OF a mans
success in life depends upon his APP
pearance, and as a considerable por-
ton of his appearance depends
upon his hat and shoes, it certainly
is the duty of every man to wear as
good hat and shoes as he can at:
ford, and common sense dictates to
him to buy where the best can be
had cheapest. B. Lewis, No II

~ The establishment of s. G.
Dreyfus, corner of Spring and Texas
streets, Shreveport, is generally
thronged with purchasers from the
country, taking advantage. of the
superior inducements offered there
in the way of bargains in dry goods.
Mr.. Dryfus, visited the North during
the summer and spent some months
purchasing and having manufac-
tured just such goods as suit this
trade, and brought ON one of the
best selected stocks of staple and
fancy dry goods, notions, ready
made clothing, gents furnishing
goods, shoes and hats ever brought
to this market. There is nothing
in the way of dry goods, from a
bunch of cotton tape, to a bolt of
the finest satin, but that can be had
at this popular establishment. Mr..
Dreyfus' store is fitted up in the most
approved and elegant manner with
everything SO nicely arranged aud
with such system that tits no trouble
whatever to his polite clerks to show
goods. If you want to buy paper

THE PUBLIC PRINTING.

The allegations of the Times and Picaysme,
that the public printing Is now as extrava-
gantly paid for as it was in the days of Radi-
calism, is absolutely untrue. Indeed, the
public printing has never been done for 30
small sum as now. The annual appropria-
tions for the public printing before the war
averaged $42,135.
The expenditures for 1877 and 1873 exceed
this sum by a few thousand dollars, but In
those years there was an unusual amount Of
printing required and done. Now under the
Radical regime, the printing for 1868 to 1874
averaged S245,828 II per annum. It seems to
us that there Is some difference between the
prices paid for public printing now and when
the Republican was the official Journal and
the proprietor of the New Orleans Times was
a high official OF the Radical government and,
If we are not msnformed, a large stakeholder
In the Republican.
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1879-01-29

The only part that France took In the con-
ference that framed the Berlin treaty was to
have two provisions Inserted therein to the
effect that Servia and Roumania should, In
return for the guarantee of their indepen-
dence grant equal rights to their Jewish In
habitants. The treatment of the Jews liv-
Ing In these countries, In Roumania In par
ticular, has been outrageous. They are denied
all the rights Of citizenship, while even Ma
hometans are granted these rights In full.
They are compelled to wear apparel distin-
gushing them from the rest OF the popula-
ton, and are not allowed to own real estate.
Every now and then riotous outbreaks occur,
and number of Jews are slaughtered. The
United States interfered once to prevent these
massacres, and France and other European
countries have repeatedly entered protests
against this barbarism. It is gratifying
therefore, to learn that Servia has honorably
carried out the provisions Of the treaty of
Berlin In reference TO the Jews, and that its
Skuptchina or Parliament has passed law
giving them equal rights with other classes
of the population. There seems to be little
likelihood, however, that Roumania will fol-
low this good example. That power still ad-
heres obstinately to her bigotry, and declines
to do anything whatsoever favorable to the
Israeltes.
