Peru's Way Of Dealing with towards.
New YORK, June 16-A letter dated Lima,
Peru, May 22d, says: A decree has been is
sued, which, in view of the ignomi NOUS con-
duct of Gen. Prado during the campaign
against Chill, and his shameful desertion and
fight, deprives him of the rights of citizen
of Peru, and condemns him to public military
degradation. Another decree degrades the
officers in Iquique at the time the Chilians
landed there, because. instead of retiring to
the interior and joining the Peruvian army
there, they accepted passports from foreign
Consus and embarked as persons who had not
borne arms. Another decree brands Colonies
Manuel Velarde, Manuel Aprado and Manuel
e. NJ. Ortez, as towards at the battle of San

deprives them os all personal rights which

Il LIKE Jefferson's way of inaugu.
ration. 1t suits our system. He rode
alone on horseback to the capitol. tied
his horse to rail fence, entered, and
was duly sworn, then rode to the exec
utiye mansion and took possession.
He inaugarated himself simply by ia
king the oath of Office. There is no
other legal Inauguration in our system.
It does not provide that one President
should inaugnrate another. There
might be danger in that, and it was
studiously left out of the charter.

OF snubbing is not sufficiently under
stood and practiced by the average
American gentleman or lady. Con-
sidering the credit our people have
for boldness and push, they yield
to the familiar touch and speech
of the low manners around them too
tamsly. Every gentlemen not only
owes it to himself to preserve his
place and secure the courtesy that is
his by right, but he owes it to socie-
tv that every aggressive, bad-man-

We understand that petitions will
soon be put in active circulation
throughout various portions of our
parish, for signature by our citizens
asking the legislature to impose a tax
upon dogs the proceeds of said tax
to be devoted to public school purposes
in the respective parishes. This is a
good move in the right direction, and
should be recognized Immediately by
our legislators. No man, white or
colored, could object to the passage
Of such benefcent law; as all would
receive their money back through
their children. We need much
larger school fund, and it should be
provided for without delay. Another
good feature about this tax on dogs,
is, that we would get rid of large
number of worthless ours, whose only
merits are to destroy the pigs, goats,
and sheep OF. the country. Hundreds
of dollars would besavedt to the parish
in this way, and our public school
fund would be materaially increased.
By all means, we say, give us a tax
on dogs.-Opelousas Courier.

Nothing presents a sadder COM

families, both in town and country,
but more especially the latter, that
subscribe to no paper of any kind.
Hundreds and thousands of families
are thus growing up utterly ignorant
Of what is transpiring in the world
around them--ignorant of the mighty
events Of the day. But who can tell
the vast amount of injury that is be-
ing inflicted on the risinggeneration-
those who are to take out place in the
busy world at no future day-growing
up without any knowledge of the
present or the past; this ignorance,
too, being imbued into them by the
sanction of those who should, and
doubtless do, know better, did they
only think of the injurious effects of
their insane course. Let the head of
every family think of this, and place
in the hands of those for whom he is
responsible the means of acquiring
some knowledge Of the moving
panoramn in which we act our different
parts.-GoOd Words.
