When Mr.. Tom" Hughes was in Amer
lea he met at dinner in Chicago a gentle
man of much taste in elocution. The lat
ter, says the Republic of Washington, was
praising the dramatic quality of Bret
Harte's writings, when some one asked if
.he had read q Mfggles." It had just ap-
peared in the Overland, and Mr.. Hughes
had not seen it. After dessert some one
requested the editors friend to read the
STORY, and he did so with consummate art.
When he turned to Mr.. Hughes for his ap-
proval, at the conclusion of the last line,
that gentleman was busy with his handker-
chief and did not find voice to speak a
word of praise. On the following Christ
mas the American received full set Of

COP. LIVER on IN DISEASE. The fish
from which the oil thus named is obtained
is said by the British Pharmacopeia to be
Gadus moJrhud, Lin. but in the United
States Pharmacopeia it is said, with
stricter accuracy, to be derived from that
fish and other species of Gadus." The
following are the species of fish from which
the oil is obtained The Goldfish, the pol
lock, the coal-fsh, the turbot, the ling and
the dorse. The chemical substances which
cod-liver oil is found TO contain are mar
garlic, stearic and cetylic acids, all of which
are white solids; oleic acid and volatile
acids, which are liquids; glycerine and
hillary matters, and graduine. These are
shown in the relative proportions in which
they exist in the OIL Besides these bodies,
cod-liver oil contains minute quantities of
iodine, bromine and phosphorus. To each
of these its medicinal properties have been
referred, but the minute quantities con-
tanned in the oil, the difference of opinion
among authorities, and the fact that other
animal oils are found to produce similar
effects, are regarded as proving sufficiently
that cod-liver oil is useful chiefly as an
easily digested fat.

That Daily Mail |!

We dislike to complain ofvanyth'h
in the outset, but our people havs Been
so imposed upon by the proposed new
mail line that we feel it to be our duty
as a public journalist to call attention
to the matter. The mail contract with
the Bayou Sara packets expired on the
10th inst, since which time our mails
have been accumulating at Donaldson
vile, the terminus connecting the new
Red River mail line with New Orleans.
The boats that were to have made this
connection, had not up to Thursday put
in appearance, and our people thereby
deprived of their postal convenienccs
altogether.
Had such thing as this have occur
red in the North or Welt, the people al
the aggrieved points W lnld have raised
such furore as to have set the whole
country in blaze of ID iFdignation. But
10, here in the South it does not matter
with the Radical authorities at Wash
ington. Our complaints are ridiculef
and our Indignation responded to will

Since the above was put in type, ont

Shot and Killed.

Last Saturday night, while uesro
ball or dance was being held on the Per-
kins place, some two miles from this
city, bloody and fatal difficulty occur
red. As is the custom among the more
pretentious young bloods of the colored
race, good deal Of bad whisky llad
found its way beneath their VESTS, at an
early hour, but though noisy and bolst-
erous, nothing of serious nature oc-
Cured until near the hour OF three
o'clock, when an alteration took place
between Stephen Brown and Robert
Nelson. by the interference Of friends,
this was stopped, after Brown had given
Nelson a sharp blow After the separa-
ton, Brown left the room, and went out
into yard, where he met Henry johnson,
friend and sympathizer, who volunta-
rily loaned him q pistol; whereupon
Brown retraced his steps towards the
ball room, at the door of which he met
John Royal, a colored youth OF about 10
wears, whom he accosted with, lana
what have you got to do wild it." Before
any reply could he given, he levcled his
pistol and fired, the ball entering Royals
left eye, and ranging upward, spent It's
force in cracking the back of the skull.
Royal fell backward and expired with
out word. Coroner l.. Jadot was no.
tilted and repaired to the scene and held
the customary inquest, the verdict ofthe
Jury embracing the above circumstances
The facts are Indicative of q cold and de-
liberate murder, poor Royal, falling
the innocent victim to the bloodthirsty
rage of one of his race. Crime is becom-
ing too frequent among the colored race
in this State for liberation, and the full
punishment of the law should be meted
out to every violator. As rule innocent
parties, who are law-abid ing in the full
acceptation of the term, fall beneath the
crime-staincd hands of doubly-dyed vii
lains, and the thing should be stopped
at once and forever. Else mob venge
ance will rise in most willful disregard
of law and pollute the sanctity and over
whelmn the force of civil liberty.
On Wednesday night last, after severa
days Of vigilant search, Capt Bate
captured the murderer. He had eludet
the officers and avoided arrest up t.
, that day, and had, with the assistance
, of friends, nearly accomplished his es
! cape to Kansas or some other Radica
recess for cOncealment. For this pur
nose he dressed himself in woman
clothes, aud was making his way to til
landing. But Sheriff Bates had an ink
ling of what was about to happen, an
was on the look out. At 4 at late hO'l
. he observed his man dressed according t
plan, swinging his arms at furior
rate. The disguise was too thin, and tn
G Sheriff stepped up behind and tappe
L him on the shoulder with the remark
u "And who are you ~
y The murderer answered without thinl
. ing:
wL0uis Jones ~
Then he realized that his weak hcn
:, had gone back on him, that Louis Jonf
" never wore women's clothes, and !
quietly accompanied Sheriff Bates
the parish Jail, to answer to the char!
. of killing John Royal.
