Female Editors.

Our neighbor, the Morehouse Clar-
ion, deals with this subject in face
tious style. or at least attempts to, and
says that the editors of the Claiborne
Guardian and RICuLAND BEACON
write like luna,ics on the subject"
We may appear to the editor of the
Clarion to write like a lunatic, when
we assert that women are not intel
lectually inferior to men-many Others
of our sex are just that egotistical and
presumptions-but we see nothing
insane 10 the assertion, for we know
of a great many ladies who are the
superiors of both the editors Of the
Clarion and Beacon. and we are not
too proud or selfimportant to admit
it.
The Clarion makes the mistake Of
saving We marvel why ladies do no,
become editors" We have never
marveled why something is not fact
which is, for there are many very able
female editors. In reply to the Guar
dams inquiry, We gave some of the
reasons why. incur opinion, there were
no more lady journalists. We do MOI
know whether this blunder on tht
part of the Clarion is an evidence o
insanity or something less dangerou:
and startling. The Clarion's reason
"why there are no femalo journalists
does not apply to US, for we have n'
babies to be nursed, though it may t

improved by his swapping duties witt

The Grant Boom.

We. presume that Gen. Grants
nomination by the Republican party
NAV now be considered an almost all
solu,e certainly, and the Democratic
press and orators will have great
deal TO say about Imperialism. There
may be very good reason for very
grave apprehension OF Grant attempt
ing to establish himself upon an im-
perial throne, but we feel, some how
or another, very little fear cf his sue
cess; for we think that if he had or
has such designs, he had not the sa-
gaci,y to improve his opportunity,
which is now gone.
But there are other results very
likely to follow his election, that are to
be greatly feared. He can, and
doubtless will surround himself with
! the same men who made his former
! administration noted for rascality o.
every description, for the Belknaps
and whisky: ring. men and rascalIi,y
Indian agents are not all dead. He
can and perhaps will override the civi
authority with the military, if he gets
a Congress- to back him. and will show
the same reckless disregard Of the Con
stnution, as in former years, when i
! conflicts with the policy and schemes
Of his party. And these are the rea
sons why his election should be feared
and defeated and we think they arr
sufficient to arouse to action all lover.
of liberty, whether there are an.
grounds for apprehending the dange
Of Imperialism or not.
1t is enough to believe, from his pas
history, that he will not allow the dis
honesty Of his appoin'ees to outweigh
their party fealtv and loyalty to Grant
aud that be will not scruple to set asid
the Constitution and override th
governments If States in order t
place their reins in the hands Of hi
personal and political friends.

Wife Murder.

New Orleans has a case of wife muir

the skull. She fingered for several
days, and at one time, seemed to be
recovering, but finally died. Las

verdict that death resulted from the

individual and private interests do not
favor this project, for my plantation

ter down BGuf River in 1876; but |
am in for the greatest good of the
whole country.
One argument against shutting of
the overflow, and which will be used
by some, and which is detrimental to
nv individual interest, is that it would
seriously injure the navigation of the
two Rivers Macon and Boeuf; but
! that could in some measure be Obvia-
ted, at least as TO Boeuf, by closing
the mouth of Lafourche lake, near
Point Jefferson, thereby turning much
of the rain water down Boeuf River,

of Morehouse and all from Monroe
down to the lower line of Caldwell
would be glad to gee done, TO say
nothing of Richland. This would not
be to our interest unless Oposssum
