There is q movement Oh foot, we are
told, to extend the limits of the cor
poration some distance further west. 1t
may be advisable to extend the same
far enough to take in the railroad de-
pot and grounds; but further than this
would be against the interests of the
mass of the taxpayers of Opelousas.
The corporation as it now stands is far
from crowded, and the taxpayers have
enough to do to pay current expenses.
To take in more vacant land, and open
and keep up streets through it, and
build the necessary bridges, would
greatly increase the burden of the tax
payers, without being OF any advantage
to them, that we can see pecuniarily or
otherwise. Let those who own the
the land they desire to be incorporated
with Opelousas, first lay it off into
squares corresponding with those Of the
town, put the streets through it in good
condition-same as those of the town,
and put improvements and tenants
on these squares or lots, SO as to give
them corresponding taxable value with
those Of the town; after doing these
things it would not be immodest for them
to ask for incorporation. But if our
taxpayers know their own interests, they
will strenuously oppose extending the
corporation by wholesale over vacant
land, the taxes upon which would not
pay for keeping up its streets.
St. Landry democrat., 1880-10-16

Some year or so ago a negro named
John Haines, residing OH the Atwood or
Groves Plantation near Opelousas, left
and went to the parish of Iberia. At
the same time mule disappeared fro m
said plantation. Shortly afterwards he
returned with a horse. 1t was soon dis
covered that he had snapped the mule
to a man there, and received fifty dol
lars to boot. But before he could he
arrested, he escaped to Texas, but Wis
tied Iberia before coming here. While
there he fixed matters up with the man
whom he had swindled out of the horse
and fifty dollars by paying him enough
to satisfy him and prevent his being Il
witness against him for stealing the
mule-he was simply to fail to identify
Haines us the man who had snapped
him the mule. He then came here, sur
rendered himself, proclaimed his inno-
cence and asked for trial or examina-
ton. The failure of the only witness in
the case to identify him would no doubt
have caused his release for mule steal
ing; but Sheriff Duson had just received
letter from Wiley Thompson, a mer-
chant at Forest, Cherokee county, Texas,
telling him to look out for this John
Haines, who sailed under several other
names in Texas. Haines had been his
servant, and had just stolen from him
his trunk containing about $500 in
money, and left on the railroad for
Louisiana, and as he had been writing
to several dusky damsels at Opelousas,
he thought he would come here. And
sure enough he did and by going to the
parish of Iberia Immediately, Sheriff Du-
son recovered little of the money. If
dispatch had been sent to Sheriff Du-
son Immediately, he would have arrested
Haines when he reached Nermillion-
vile, and recovered nearly all the mon
ey, as he had expended only necessary
travelling expenses when he arrived at
that place. But as soon as he got
among his old cronies and sweethearts
in Iberia parish and this, he showered
the money among them with a liberal
hand. Haines is now in Jail here, wait
ing for the sheriff of Cherokee county,
| Texas.

Public Schools.


What has become of our public
schools? We have school officials,
State and parochial, all the time,
but no schools. What is the use of
having an organization that accom-
plishes nothing? The public school
system in this State is delusion and a
snare. AS public schools are provided
for by the constitution and laws of the
State, and the people taxed to support
them, they are led to believe that their
children can be educated at public
schools. But the sessions Of these
schools are so irregular and desultory,
and Of such short duration, that no one
can derive much benefit from attending
them. They are in session just long
enough to drive away all competent
teachers not employed in them, and to
break up all good private schools; and
when they are not in session, everybody
is waiting on the uncertainty of their
opening again. They furnish children
no regular schooling, and teachers no
regular employment; and they break up
private schools and drive away the
teachers. Unless public schools are in
session regularly for eight or ten mon tbs
in the year, we had better not have
them at all. Without them people know
what to do-patronize and encourage
private schools. Under our present
public school system, their children
cannot be educated and there will be
very few good private schools while
this public school nuisance, and we
might say incubus on education, re-
mains. We have apubiic school system
without the means to carry it into effect;
and unless the means is furnished, the
system had better be abolished entirely
State Superintendent Lusher, in his re-
Fort for for 1879, says the aggregate
annual apportionment cannot exceed
forty-tive cents per child" (all between
and 21.) Now no child can he edu-
Gated for forty five cents year, or du,
, ring ten months of the year at four and
half cents month. The very idea
is ridiculous. Abolish the system and
stop the expense, and let the people de-
pend entirely on private schools. This
they will surely have to do, if they
educate their children.
