SHARP PRACTICE.
FcliCiana Sentinel.

When the steamer j. NJ. White passed
up, on Friday, April 30th, a note ad-
dressed to the postmaster ut Bayou Sara
and signed +. Il. Baker, $50 Poydras
street, New Orleans, wasa left from the
boat at the coal yard above town. 1t
stated, in substance, that the writer, a
passenger OH the White. had seen in the
crowd on the wharf boat ut Bayou Sara,
one Lackmond, who was wanted badly
in New Orleans, on a charge of murder
and robbery and that five hundred dol
lars reward was offered for him. The
note also gave full description of the
man. The communication was turned
over to Mayor Irvine and Mar
shaI Spencer was charged with
the arrest, 1t was not long before he
found his man, answering tho dcscrip-
ton given, and who, upon his arrest,
acknowledged hisnamc to be Lackmond,
but laughed dcrisively at such q charge.
Dackmond was held in custody until the
chief of police could be communicated
with By telegraph. Mayor Irvine tel
eyraphed the particulars as to the cir.
cumstanccs under which Iacklnond was
held Gin durancc vile" and was answer
ed to the effect that that upon invcsti
cation, no person by the name of Baker
resided at No. $50 Poydras street, anl
that there was no charge against Lack
mond in that city.
Lackmond was then released from
custody in all the dignity of injured in
nocence. Since then he has remained
in town, boarding at Mrs. T.. W. White
mans house, until Wednesday, 5tl
inst, when hc disappeared mystcriously
forgetting to settle his board bill, an'
has not been heard Of since.
Evidently, this was "sharp practice
on tho part Of Lackmond. He CANE
here ostcnsibly as music teacher, gold
smith and professor Of tho German Ian
guage. It is surmised, and probabl.
without error, that he wrote and cansc,
to be delivered tho note signed by Baker
in an attempt to bring himself into no
toriety ~ . much injured innocent
His queer departure gives color ia tn
impression.

LINES BY MAJOR RANDOLPH OF
VIRGINIA.

We clip the following FROM Rlch'
mond newspaper of 1876. Randolph'S
mes will never grow Old:
A battalion of United States troops
went through Ricllmond, last Friday on
their way to south Carolina. While
they were marching along the street we
passed the Washington monument anu
could not help thinking of the lines WIZ, ,
ton by Major Randolph at. the time Oh
the placing of the Marshall statue on Its
W. are glad to see you, John Marshall. my o"y'
N fresh from tho chisel Of Rogers!
Go take your stand on the monument there
Along with the other old codgers'
With washington, Jefferson, Henry anu such
Who sinned with great transgression,
T.. ,ho;, old fashioned notions OF Freedom anu
Right,
And their hatred of wrong and oppression!
You came rather late to your pedestal Johh,
For sooner you shonll have been here;
far the volume sou hold is no longer the law
And this is no longer Virginia.
The old Marshalllaw you expounded o. yote'
isnot now all to the purpose;
And the martial law of the new brisaale'
Is stronger than habeas corpns.
So keep YOU the volume shut with care,
For tho DAYS of the law are over
And it need, all your brass to be holding II

And blaze in the FURNISHED eye,

Would ye chide us or pity u.s. Olnsh or "0ep'
Ysmen of the days gone by!
Would Jefferson tear the scroll he hol"s,
That time has proven lie!
And Marshall shut the volume OF law,
And Law it down with sigh
Would Mason roll up the Bill Of Rights, ~
From race unworthy to scan it
And Henry dash down the eloquent sword
And clang it against the granite!
And Washington seated in massy strength
On charger that paws tho air,
Could he see his sons in their deep disgrace,
Would he ride so proudly there
He would get him down from his big brass horse
And cover his face with shame,
Eor the land of his birth is now District one -
Virginia was once the name.
1t is proper to add that the soldiers
were heartily ashamed of the thankless
duty they were forced to perform, by a
dcspotic and dangerous assumption OF
power on the part of the Government.

RATHER EXCITED.

Under the above significant healing
the Patriot-Democra makes the follow
ing wcl-timed remarks:
As will be seen by reference to anoth-
or column, our esteemed cOnfrerc OF the
Alexandria Democrat has become iratc
over the fact that several journals of
tho State, such as are true cxpOncnts of
Democratic principles, have not seen
proper t6'throw up their hats and give
cheers for Gov. Wilt, i'll his administers
ton of our State Government. %
Although the editor of the Alexandria
paper has not mentioned the Patriot
Democrat in his trade, nevertheless we
have word or two to say.
We stand with Gov. Wilt as we did
with the late Legislature. Desiring to
do Justice, we censurcu not until cen
sure was absolutely and more than de-
served.
Although Gov. Wilt was by no
mean, our choice for Governor Of the
State, nevertheless, after lie had rccciv-
cd the nomination, being true Jctfcr-
,onian Democrat, we supported him to
the utmost of our limited ability, hoping,
vet fearing that discord under his add
ministration would become cnSendered
in our ranks. We regarded Gov. Wilt
then, and we regard him now, as poll
tician, in the true sense Of the word ;
aud without accusing him OF trickery,
we must admit we Very much dislike
the mysterious manner in whicll he So
lccted for our State a Supreme Court,
the superior of which could doubtless
readily have been found. An improve
meut at least could have been made, and
y great one. and bravery, honesty and
ability rewarded, and that, by the plac'
inr thereon of tic MANNED and dcTotcd
Nichols. But, no, Gov. Nichols, with
hi, wooden leg and sleeveless arm, was
ignored Strange to say, too, from the
very first moment of the administration
of Gov. Nichols, the very ring whlcl
now so plainly shows its brazeu head il
he control of the public affairs, madt
war, vicious public affairs made war
vicious and unrelenting war upon tt'
hero of SO many battle fields; and To-
what9 10 secure controlof the reisn'
of government.
But we have not as yet abused Gov
Witt, nor do we intend to do so now
We hope the errors he has committed
have been those of the head and not o
the heart. A spark of christian CHART!
occasionally comes over rs, and at sucl
moments we have hope that yount
Governor will learn wisdom and III
proyc as he grows older. 10 do so
however, he must first rid himself OF
class of advisers whose counsel is moth
ing if it is not injurious to Democrae.
and to tho people.
We believe in upholdins principle
more than we do i'll upholding mel
When the late war opened, wc believed
in the cause espouscd by jeff Davis
To-day we believe firmly in the justice
Of the same, and had we the right t.

Union, the man that we would seIec

A MAD MAN IN WARD FIVE.
AND FIRES AT ANOTHER-EXCtTE-
( MENr lIIGH--HE Is FINALLY
CAPTURED
Sparta Times.)

tSpaTka lMSs) .
Considerable excitement prcyallcdfor
a while last Tuesday in the ncighbor.
hood of Saline .Clnwch, ward five. One
TsM Woods, ~ beneficiary Of this parish,
living in that neighborhood, has been in
the habit for several years of having fits.
So violent are the attacks ut times the
neighbors are called in to assist in man
aging him. Such was the case lat
Tuesday, in fact his condition was worse
then than ever before. He became per-
fcctly frantic and unmanagab1e. In
deed, 80 dangerous was he that ono OF
his neighbors, Mr. Taylor Row, who had
zone to his house to wait OH him, had to
flee for his life. He Grow then went il,
hot haste to others Of his ncighbors and
informed them of the terrible state OF
affairs at Woods and demanded assist
ancc. On Mr.. Rows return he discOv-
cred Woods track leading Oft i'll the
direction of his (Row's) house. In the
meantime, however, and while Mr.. Row
was Oft after help, Mrs. Row discovered
Woods coming. Knowing the condition
of Woods, she gathered her little ones
and fled to an old ncgro's, jim Lewis by
name, for protection. She was perfectly
PROSTATE on arriving there, but suc-
cecded in making the old negro under
stand that something unusual was the
matter. Lewis Immediately started for
Mr.. Rows. On arriving he found Woods
seated on the gallery witha gun i'll hand.
No sooner had Woods discovered Lewis
than he raised his gnn and fired both
barrels upon him, intitcting dangerous
and probably mortal wounds. He int
mcdiatelyscloadcd Ills gun, and by this
time Mr.. Row, who, finding that Woods
had gone in the direction of his house,
hurried home. Arriving there, he found
the mad man in his house, rumaying
about and threatening to set fire to the
premises. When he saw Mr.. Row, llc
rushed for his gun, rcmarking, ''dam
you, IN kill you, too" Mr.. Il. put spurs
to his mule, but none too soon, for Woods
fred upon him as he ran off, the shot
passing Just above him. by this time
the whole community was wild with
excitement, s'shOuldcrel arms and
rushed to the scene of action. Woods
still had possession Of Rows house and
threatened to burn it down. Before he
could carry out his threats, some of the
neighbors dccoycd him Oft to the field
where they finally succeeded in over
powcring him. He was brought to town
the next day and delivered to the proper
authorities. As soon as the necessary
arran -emcnts can be made, the Sheriff
will carry the unfortunate man to the
asylum.
We sympatizc with Mr.. Woods and
family in their misfortune, and it is to
be hoped that tho treatment lie will re-
ceivc at Jackson will restore him to his
wOntcd health.
The people who participated i'll his
arrest are to be congratulated fol
their composure and presence of mind
during so trying time. Realizing the
fact that Woods was entirely unscOn'
scious of what he was doing the citizens
rcsortcd to no violent means for his cap.

GOOD JOHN sRoucHAm.
Calmly and peacefully went away
fA,x.. xst,-- rod <oylo,.-, do

Calmly and peacefully went away
One Of earth's good fellows two days ago;
A man who was nodded OF finest clay
While so many are red brick -mud.-or dough
A man with rea-blood- throbbing heart,
Who felt for his brothers in joy or pain,
And Who knew no nobler Office for art,
Than calming Pulse or soctniriy brain.
Good good John BrSugham Let the record stand
Though many a stain from his earthly kin
May have married his life or soied his hand
Though he knew the strength of human sin
What was it the Master said !" To her
Be much forgiven, for her loving much =
Who knows but for him that thought will stir,
And the same warm heart win the healing touch
No man cried Help y and he passed by,
No man plead sGive - without response
Ay, even when, judged with impartial eye,
His own were often the kFeuer wants.
No land, or people, beyond his ken
Lay pleading for that which his hand withheld
He was facite pTiHceps of great soulcd men
All, when has sadder death been kneliedl
Within his c0ffin-sueh sctnty space
What characters crowd, to share his rest
We have looked our last on many face
That the poet-actor's being expressed
Shall we name them !? No on the mimic stage,
They will move no more, since he is gone;
And The pathos and Hiirth OF many page
With the same sad touch must be Withdrawn.
And yet, why mourn him? His life has been
Full lived, 10 beyond the seventy years.
1t is time to change the worn earthly scene
To another, and brighter, in other spheres.
So we lay him down, Ia the peace of heaven,
With fervent PRAYER for the soul new born
Yet prayer no warmer than he has given
To all mankind, from his natal morn.
