River News.

The river remains pretty much in
the same condition we left it in last
week. What it will do during the
next seven days depends on the
weather. but there is plenty of the
aqueous fluid for the larger class OF
stern-wheeiers, and will be no doubt
throughout this month even without
our daily dews.
To be, or not to be, is question no
longer, in the Ouachita, at least. We
now have two B's-the Rosa b. and
the Little Bob b. but they are not
even distantly related, though both
claiming descent from old Busy Il.
The 'sdashing'' Rosa Il. sailed into
port af 1880 last Friday, proceeded to
Ouachita City, and left on her return
to the Crescent City at am. Saturday,
with 200 bales cotton, $50 of which she
received here.
The Pagan arrived ut 1890 Saturday
with big trip, discharging here a
II eavy freight, the largest of the
season, and left on her return with Il

The d. Stein returned from the Bar

made the voyage, and returned the
same day to that stream with rather a

Though the proceedings Of tho several
ward meetings have not all been
brought in, enough has been asccrtained
to satisfy us that as between Judge T.
A. Garrett and DR.. Helmick decided
majority of delegates have been chosen
tive from this parish, and we presume
that Judge Garrett, though a number
ofthc delegates are unrestricted, will
be nominated o-morrow. There were
animated contests, it appears, both in
tho Island and at Logtown, but it is to
be hoped that no permanent discord
will ems ue.

District Court.

Judge Richardson opened the Fall
term of the District Court on Monday,
and proceeded in his accustomed i'm
pressivc manner TO organize for bus
iness.
The Grand Jurors drawn from the
first weeks panel were called and
sworn, and properly charged by His
Honor, and are now, with the assist
ance of District Attorney Hudson, en-
curing into the violations and alleged
violations of law in this parish. There
are no important cases requiring in
vestigation, we learn, and hardly the
usual number of minor ofTenses have
been reported for action. Hence, the
District Attorney thinks the Jury will
complete its sittings with the cur
rent week. We give the names of the
Jurors, all s:good and true men, of
whom genial Major Frank G. Jones,

Grand Masonic Ball and Supper.

The Masonic fraternity is making
preparations which are to eliminate in
a supper and ball on a grand scale in
this city soon after the 1st proNimo,
the receipts of which will go toward
building the new Masonic hall on
Grand street. The plans are quite COM
prchensivc, and, when perfected in all
their details, promise an entertain
mcnt of unusual brilliancy and attrac-
ton, embracing as they do the enter
tainmcnt of Il larger number of quests
than were ever assembled in this city
and variety of attractions hitherto
not even attempted here on similar
occasions. To make the affair, as con-
templated, a grand success, the origina-
tors confidently rely upon the Jealous
support of the Fraternity in all the
parishes surrounding, and of the Grand
Lodge itself. We are strongly of the
opinion that the reliance is wcll-found-
ed, and that the TELEGRAPH viii have
the pleasure of chronicling Il social
event early next month of greater in
terest and cclat than any like event
occurring in Monroe since the war.
We should not fail to add that the
ladies are heartily enlisted in the under
taking, but there is, presumably, room
plenty for all who have aid to extend.
