LeprOsy in Lafourclle.

Mr.. ]. NJ. Bollinger, a citizen Of Lock
port, Lafourcle parish, La, writes to the
New York Snna as follows
I find in your issue Of Oct. 81, = para
graph in regard to leprosy in this parish.
It is true the disease exists here to some
extent, but the statement that an at
tempted investigation was forcibiy re-
sisted is erroneous. On the contrary, the
unfortunate victims of this frightful NAL
aday desire a thorough examination, in
hopes of finding, if not cure, at least
some alienation Of their sufferings.
Dr. Jones, the eminent physician Of
New Orleans, and President Of the State
Board of Health, has already made a
partial examination, and suppose this
is the one reported to have been forcibly
resisted. In a letter to the Picayune, after
his return to New Orleans, DR.. Jones
states that he was surprised at the friend
illness Of his reception by these afflicted
pCOIICj anu tAClA W uCSS W W CA-
amined.
It is impossible to determine precisely
how this terrible disease was introduced
here. 1t is so rarely found amcng Cau-
casians that the majority of even the
we'll informed regard it as Asiatic, and
even purely Monsolian. That it exists in
this part Of Louisiana, and among people
of nnmixcd Caucasian decent is never
theless beyond doubt It was probably
implanted here by some rowing vagabond
Of Laftte's gang who had contracted it
in China or the Sandwich Islands.
Leprosy is not regarded as infectious,
and as it is not easily communicated even
by contact, its existence here excites no
alarm. It seems to extend itself only by
Inheritance, and as the children of lep-
rous parentage seldom reach maturity it
spreads very slowly.

THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

The ENCLISH LANGUAGE.
A pretty deer is deartO mo, --.
A hare with downy hair;
love hart with all my heart,
But barely bear d bear.
Ills plain that no one takes plane
To pare pair OF pears;
A rake, though, often takes rake
To tear away the tares.
All rays raise thyme, times RACES all;
And, through the whole, hole wears.
A writ, in writing fright" may writo
It wright" and still be wrong
For write" and "rite" arc neither "right, +"
And don't to write belong.
Beer often brings Il bier to maa,
Coughing coffin brings.
And too much ale will mako us ALL
As we'll as other things.
The person lies who says he lies
When he is but reclining:
And, when consumptive folks decline,
They all decline declining.
A quail don't quail before a storm
A bough will bow before it;
We can not reign the rain at all
No earthly powers reign DER it.
The dyer dyes awhile then dies;
To dye he's always trying,
Until upon his dying bed
He thinks no uUre Of dyeing.
A son OF Mars mars many sun;
All deys must have their days,
And every knight should pray zach night
To him who weighs his ways.
'Tis meet that man should mete out meat
To feed misfortune's sou;
The fair should fare on love alone,
Else one can not be won.
A lass, alas is something false;
OF faults a maid is made;
Her waist is but u barren waste
Though stayed, she is not staid.
fhesprings spring forth III spring, and shoots
Shoot forward one and all;
Though summer kills the flowers, it leaves
The leaves to fall in fall
l would a story here commence,
But you might find it stale;
So let's suppose that you have reached
The tail end of our tale.

LIFE

Strange that we unthinking mortals
Seorn the presents humble face,
Eagerly await the morrow
Clothing it with fairest grace;
Placing hopes of starry brightness
In the futures vau1ted do,nes,
Little recking in our blindness
That tomorrow never comes
Realizing not the present
Is the most that We can own.
Till its many joys and pleasures
Like swift-wingcd bird have flown
Looking forward tofthe future
Looking back toward the past
Dimly wondering why life's blessings
Always are too sweet to last.
Never note tho golden sunlight
Till its bright beams fade away,
And the twilights sombre finger
Writes the close of beauteous day;
All unmindful Of the Summer,
And the roses perfumed breath,
Tilt the icy hand Of Winter
Dooms tho dainty buds to death.
Live not in the past or future,
Joys of yoro are cold and dead,
Joys to come can bring no pleasure
Once our happy youth has fed
And our weary hands are folded
Still and quiet meath the sod;
Let US pluck the presents blossoms,
Leaving all tho rest to God.

If New Orleans brokers expect to
handle the sugar product of this region,
they will have to hold out greater induce

the better market, and is growing in

they did not intend to ship to New Or

Paper from Bagasse.

An Important Proposition to Capitalists
and Sugar Planters.
Mr. Theophile Harang, Sr., an intelli-
gent and successful sugar planter Of La
fourchc parish, has issued the following
important circular:
BANANA GROVE PLANTATION,
October 90, 1880.
To Capitalists and Sugar Planters:
GenAcmen-The destruction of the bagasse
throughout the State, involves an annual
loss, to the planting interest, of several mil
lions Of dollars, which could be easily saved.
We offer to put up, by subscription, an
apparatus for the immediate conversion of
the bagasse into tibrous material rendering,
at the same time, all the refuse matter avail
able for Immediate fertilizing purposes.
The above apparatus could be attached to
every sugar house. and economically worked
by the planter. 1t could save all the ba-
gasse from the largest plantations, as it
comes from the mill.
We are the patentee for the process of tho
transformation of the bagasse, cane leaves
and sorghum refuse into fiber. and our pat
ent, which was issued in 1877, ID yet valid
for eight Or nine years.
We offer one-half interest in our patent
and IN our apparatus 10 the planters or cap
italists wishing to form a stock company,
with a cash capital Of $l5,000-there being
three hundred shares of $50 each.
The apparatus will work from - to 90
tons of material daily, at a cost of not more
than $40, and will probably more than pay
for itself in one year.
Parties wishing to subscribe are requested
to address the undersigned, stating amount
of shares taken. No funds asked. at present

His drulnsticks and his wings were fried
His feathers by q dealer dried,
And, very shortly after, dyed.
Soul lie had none, admitting that,
How comes it! There upon her hat
His plumes-l mortal cllicken's-rise
A glorious bird of paradise.
