Ben Jackson, a trifing ebony
loafer of this town, was arrested
last Monday accused of feloniously
taking possession of q sample
trunk of shoes belonging to q
New Orleans drummer, and was
put in the lookup. Tuesday, Ben
said that if he were uncaged he
could find the missing trunk, where
upon he was led forth and at once
piloted the officers to the spot where
the trunk was ''lying in wait.
Ben swears he did not carry the
trunk off, but intimates that ne
knows who did. He was released

cussed this abtruse question last
Tuesday night us a citizen ever
iustifable in disobeying a law which
he considers immoral?" We lis
tened at the arguments adduced by
each side for two hours, and after
they had finished we knew nothing
more than when they began. The
analytical and metaphysical yaga-
ries of ethical logicians blunted our
capacity for comprehension to such
an extent that when the President
| rendered his decision we were ut
terly oblivious as to its import. We
are are satisfied, however, it was :
wise one.

We had very pleasant ride, last
Sunday evening, in company with
Mr.. Tom Dalton, behind his mag
nifcent saddle and harness horse.
We know of no horse in the coun-
try more valuable than this one.
He is handsome, strong, and very
fast. In fact, he trots faster than
any horse we we're ever behind.
Mr.. Dalton speaks Of taking his
horse to the Monticello Fair in DC
tober, and, if he does, no doubt he
will come away with well-earned
laurels. Thank you, Mr.. D. fo1
the pleasant ride.

intelligent planters OF the PARISH
about the crop prospects. Inc re-
ports are not at all favorable. Men
Of good judgment and close ooser-

size. almost barren. In some por-
tons of the parish planters cons

the crop is not opening satisfacto-
