at the Martindale House.
Hon. I. FL. Hatch, of New Or
leans, make Il visit this week to st.
Taminany. Mr.. Hatch has con
siderable landed interest in this
parish, and he IS So well pleased
with its pure air and water that he
proposes when his years begin to
decline, to come here and live the
remainder of his days.
In this parish the watermelon
crop lisa bountiful one, and they
are broash lat into town about every
day. Prices yet rule a little too
high for our bank account, and we
are waiting for the time when a
forty pound melon can be had for
nickei--and then we will indulge
sur appetite to. a moderate extent.
An editor should be temperate in
all things
Farmers should plant fruit trees.
There is no difficulty, in this eli

should be kept clear of weeds, and |
a fertilizer of some sort applied.
The most important matter is the
selection of the proper varieties.

Supposed Friend, OF Newspapers.

Some supposed friends of newspaper
have peculiar ideas as to what kind of
items paper really requires. Not long
since gentleman came into the Galveston
Ne'os sanctum ard said Look here!
You miss heap of live items. I'm ON
the streets all day; I'll come up every
once in while and post you"
IAN right, fetch ON your item; but,
remember, we want news "
Next day he came up, beaming all over.
"rve got live item for you. You know
that Internal bow.legged gorilla of a
brother-in law of mine, who was in bust
ness here with me2'
Il believe | remember such person,
said the editor, YEARLY.
well, I've just got news from
Nebraska, where he il living that he is
going to run for the Legislature. Now,
Just give him blast. Lift him out of his
boots. Don't spare him on my account"
Next day he came up again. my little
item was crowded out, brought you some
news" and he hands in an item about his
cat, as follows:
"A Remarkable Animal. The family
cat of onr worthy and distinguished
fellow towusman Smith, who keeps the
boss grocery store of Ward No. ID (beer
always on tap, yesterday became the
mother of five singularly. marked kittens
This is not the first time this unheard Of
event has taken place. We understand
Mr.. Smith is being fsvorably spoken oil
as a candidate for Alderman"
The editor groans in his spirit as Ii
lights cigar with the effort. 1t is not Ions
before he hears that Smith is going arount
saying that he has made the paper what il
is, but it is not independent enough for I
place like Galveston.
Many readers will say this sketch il
overdrawn, but thousands of editors al
over the country will lift up their RICH
hands to testify that they are PERSONAL,
acquainted with the guilty party.
