Who Is Mrs. WINsLow!--As this ques-
ton is frequently asked, we will simply say
that she is lady who for upwards Of thirty
years has untiringly devoted her time and
talents as female physician and nurse,
principally among children. She has es-
pecialy studied the constitution and wants
of this numerous class, and, as result OF
this effort, and practical knowledge, OBJ
tanned in lifetime spent as nurse and
physician she has compounded Soothing
Syrup, for children teething. 1t operates
like magic-giving rest and health, and
is moreover, sure to regulate the bowels. In
consequence OF this article Mrs. Winslow is
becoming world renowned as a benefactor
of her race; children certainly do rise up
and bless her; especially Is this the case in
this city. Vast quantities of the Soothing
syrup are daily sold and used here. We
think Mrs. Winslow has immortalized her
name by this invaluable article, and we
sincerely believe thousands of children
have been saved from an early grave by its
timely use, and that millions yet unborn
will share its benefits, and unite in calling
her blessed. No mother has discharged
her duty to her suffering little one, in our
opinion, until she has given it the benefit Of
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, Try it,

4 POLITICAL DINNER.
Baltimore Gazette.

The recent attempt to give the alleged
Sherman boom a lift in New York has
been checkmated by dinner given by ex-
Senator Dorsey to Senator Jones, OF Ncva.
da, at Delmoncos on Saturday evening, At
this dinner there was a large gathering of
Republican statesmen and the sentiment
in favor Of Grant appears to have been en-
phatic and uncompromising. Grant has
secured possession of the machine in
New York in spite OF Mr.. Sher
mans manipulation of the custom
house. A significant fact in this connec-
ton was the presence at the dinner of
Senator Blaine who, in spite Of recent de-
mails, is believed to be willing to take sec
ond place on the Grant ticket in certain
contingencies The New York Times
speaking of the banquet, adds with evident
relish that Of the entire number OF guests
mot q single friend TO John Sherman was
found There is, however, one thing to
be said in Mr.. Sherman's favor lie
would make a considerably better presi-
dent thad Gen. Grant

seemed to be the general wish in the party,
in calling the convention to meet at Gin
cinnati on the cath Of July, or at some
date later than that.
In q few days the actual work Of inquiry
into the pension Office by q special commit
tee of the house, will commence. The in
vestgation is Of more importance than
would at first appear. Abouta quarter OF
a million claims tor pensions, some from
every neighborhood in the United States,
are lying in the office entirely unattended
ed to. Ten or twelve thousand per month
are received. In every other bureau OF the
government far better attention than this is
given to business, and very naturally.
Lately the supreme court of the United
States decided that inmates of the SOL
dicrs' Home here, the regular army Soldiers
Home were entitled to their regular pen
sions. Previously the Home had drawn
them and used them. After the decision was
rendered the managers Of the Home, army
officers, pettioned congress for a change
In the law so that the institution might
still reclaim the benefit of the pensions,
stating that without such support the
Home could not be sustained. But it APP
pears that within the past few years the
Home has purchased real estate to the
yalue Of more than quarter Of million
lollars, none of which is any way bene-
icial to the inmates, and an investiga-
ion is proposed and will probably be made

WHEAT BLOCKADE.


A New York special to yesterdays Pho
neer Press throws an entirely new light
upon the problem by representing that the
harbor Is full of idle ships heretofore en-
gagged in the carryingtrade; idle not because
Of lack Of supply, because Of cessation
IN demand from abroad for American grain.
This is an interesting condition Of things,
if only temporary, and startling condition
Of things if permanent. A large, constant
and apparently Unsuitable foreign demand
Tor American grain has so long been an Gle
ment of American prosperity that we should
be puzztcd to know how to do without it,.
A cessation in the foreign demand would
not only dcrange Mr.. Keene's plans--which
is Of the smallest importance-b would
derange the plans OF thousands Of business
interests dependent upon heavy cXporta-
tons; not to speak Of the plans of Mr..
Sherman and other statesmen who have had
the aid Of favorable balance of trade IN
the management of the national finances.

A Calf with Two Heads and
Two NeckS.

! Several days ago some person from
st. Martin, brought to Prof. Simon
Richard, of this place, calf with two
necks and two heads, to be stuffed.
The calf was well developed in all its
parts. The heads and necks were each
about the usual size, in fact, full size.
The body was strongly huilt, and about
IL third larger than full sized calves.
The two necks were entirely distinct
and separate, as much so as two fingers
on the same hand, or as much so as its
fore or hind legs. The heads are exactly
alike, and person seeing only one of
them would imagine that it was the
single head of an ordinary calf. The
skeleton still had flesh on it, when we
saw it, and we could not tell whether
there were two back bones joining at
the root of the tail, or whether it was a
double one joined together as the bar
rels of double gun ; but it was one or
the other. 1t had but one set of intes-
tines, but two hearts, joined together.
1t could evidently have subsisted by
feeding with either mouth. Its we'll
developed pairs of heads and necks
were not too heavy for, and do not look
out of proportion to its large and strong
looking body. Air blown through the
wind pipe of one neck inflated only it's
appropriate lung. This wonderful calf
started into this world tail foremost,
alive and kicking, but the two heads
refused to follow and they were forced
into measures by several sturdy men
pulling on a rope, which caused the
death OF the calf. IF the mothers life
had been sacrificed and the calf saved,
there is no reason why it should not
have lived and grown to maturity like
any other calf. Prof. Richard has
stuffed it and will exhibit it at his next
show, when lent is over AS it stands
in his museum, it looks almost life like,
and it is truly a wonderful curiosity.
1t is worth making long journey to
see. 1t is no monster, no double headed
misshapen animal, but large, fine
looking, perfectly developed calf, with
two separate and distinct and perfect
necks and heads.

erty is worth no more than it will brin g
at auction for cash--what the owner
asks for it, or will take for it, is no
criterion of its market value. We have
heard of persons who would not take
fifty thousand dollars fer dog, but this
did not make the dog worth that much.
A man may own property which suits
him, and refuse two or three times its
real value for it. He owns home,
where he is comfortable and contented,
ard wisely declines to part with it for
money, even for two or three times its
market value in money the latter he
could easily spend, and then be leftpenni-
less and homeless. But this would not
justify the assessment of his home at
what he asks or at what he would take for
it. There has been no general increase in
the value of real property in this town
and parish during our time; on the
contrary, the tendency has been steadily
downward. A man may huy a lot in
Opelousas, and put good improvements
Oh 1t at the least possible cost, and then
offer it for sale, and he will be unable
to sell it for more than II half or two
thirds of what it cost. TO assess such
property therefore at what it cost, would
be unjust. Assessments ought to be
equalized. Property of the same rela-
tive value should be assessed alike.
But to increase the assessment of prop
erty, SO that the taxpayers will have to
pay as much or more under the new
constitution, with sir mill tax, than
they did under the old, with the rate of
taxation much higher, is not in keeping
with the spirit of the new constitution,
and is Il violation of the pledges which
have been made to the people.

According to the State census of 1875,
there were in Louisiana 1S9-359 persons
entitled to vote. Of course there were
other males over twenty -one years old
not entitled to vote. The law Is, we
believe, that all males over twenty-one
years of age shall pay poll tax Of one
dollar. Now the State reasurer's re-
port for 1870, shows that during the
year only $42,548.46 for poll tax were
paid into the trearury, and this included
collections from one to ten years back
Only those who pay tax on property
pay a poll tax. This tax is neither
uniform nor equal, except on the tax
payers who pay their taxes. 1t is0a
sham and fraud, and ought to be
abolished, or collected from all. For
the year 1879, less than $4,000 for poll
tax were collected in this parish, and
yet there must be about 1000 males in
it over 81 years of age. IF our law
makers would provide remedy to
collect this tax. there would not be so
much necessity for the increase in the
assessment of the property of those who
pay all the taxes, poll tax included.
