Agents Of any kind, wishing TO
meet with success among the Green
hackers Of Wilson township, should
keep their out Of the LEDGER.
Last week j. b. Pool Of that party in
that township, told Mr.. J. f. Jacoby
that if he wished to receive patronage
from lin, Haley 4 Co, he must quit
having his name in the LEpGER.
They would not patronize a man that
patronized Bob White, &c. At last
we are happy. The G~rcenback party
recognizes our power. We don'tsee
how they know what is III the LEDGER,
for they never subscribe for it. But
this shows another fact-that they
can not get along without reading it.
Gentlemen, just talk all you please
the more you talk the better we
thrive. You go around Oh your
knees begging Democrats to patronize
your organ, and in the meantime you
try to do IS all the harm you can.
You just tend to your W paper,
and the Democrats, OF which Dir.
Jacoby is one, will tend to their own
affairs, and we will look out for the
Mexico LEDGER. W. are glad to
learn that you read it and heed what
it says, and are oray sorry that YOU
don't talk more and louder. The
more You kick the LEDGER the soreT
your tee will be, and tue more your
head will ache.

ces, candidates for Congress are
springing up like nettles by the
roadside. Several papers in the
lower part of the State are advo-
eating the election of Hon. John
s. Billicu m ember of the House
from Lafourche. The Honma Cou,'.
Ter says We are informed that
the Hon. J. 3. Billieu, of Lafour-
che, is a candidate for Congress
81 district. Mr.. Billieu has been
an active member of our State
Legislature for several years past,
and his course has always been
patriotic, wise and conducive to
the public good. He is we'll
known throughout the State, and
those hal knew him love and res
pect him for his kind, amiable and
generous disposition. He would
make a good and able congress
man and we fear that he will
prove a powerful rival of the
claims Of Hon. Joseph FL. Acklen.

Words of Wisdom.

-
Hope without an object cannot
live.
Whoever learns to stand alone
must learn to fall alone.
He that can compose himself, is
wiser then he that comroses
books.
Favors Of every kind are doub-
led when they are speedily con-
fcrTed.
1t is something to be good !; but
it is far finer to be good for
something.
