AT the next meeting OF the police
iury. on the nth Of January, an inspec-
tor Of public roads viii be elected at a
salary of Eve hundred dollars per an
mum. So, an office that was abolished
a few years ago, as useless one, is TO
be restored. If the police jury could
devise some plan to have the roads
worked, the inspection of them might
he dispensed with. If the district attor-
new and tile road overseers cannot en-
force the road law, how can an inspector
do it; or if he is TO be appointed to watch
the others, who is going to watch him
A dozen inspectors with q salary OF
$1,000 each will not arork the public
roads, nor cause it to be done; the
difficulty is, that the road law, like some
other laws, is not enforced. But tue
question viii be, between this and the
next meeting of the police jury, who i
to be tile inspectors This will disturb

CIVILIZATION AND CHRISTIANITY
The Beaumont, (Tezas,) Enterprise has
the following:
The stranger within our town who
takes sick and dies, stands. IL very
tiimsy chance of decent burial. Last
Sunday stranger died at his boarding
house, and the question arose, who
will bury him Z" Mr.. Z. G. Ogden was
interviewed on the subject and he set
about effecting arrangements. He first
went to the justice of the peace, who
said he couldn't help. The, commits
sioners' Court could pay only $40 in
county scrip (worth $50 and other par
ties said it was no business Of theirs.
Mr.. Ogden tbereupon generously un-
dertook the business at his own cost,
and the undertaken, Mr.. H. c. Mcclure
furnishing the coffin for merely the
cost Of the lumber, the body was buried
in. No preacher to say q prayer; no
crowd of citizens to show respect to the
dead clay of man. No, he was stranger,
and-he had no money.
St. Landry democrat., 1880-12-18

The Police jury has appointed a COM
mittee of seven, to report at next meet
ing, whether the road and bridges be-
tween here and Washington, shall he
kept up by the parish, or made a toll
affair. Judging by the past, the par
ish will not keep them up and accord
ing to the toll rates that used to prevail,
it will he better for everybody to go 10y
the railroad. We see therefore no very
encouraging prospects for good road
between here and Washington.
