with accurate work. The distribution of
parties as regards fields of operations
will be deferred to the Mississippi River
Commission, as they have been designa-
ted to take special. charge of the improve.

Saturday last q difficulty occurred at the
| store of Mr.. John Brooks. in this parish,
by the name of Jogo Scott, 10 which the
latter was shot and killed. The circuin-
stances Of the unfor tuna ate affair, as re-
vealed at the preliminary examination
had before his Honor, Judge w. F. Ker-
nan, on Monday last, are as follows: The
| negro Jogo Scott, was in the store at the
time when Mr.. Thompson entered. Jogo
had in his hard a very large, heavy
! stick, an unusual thing for him to carry.
On entering tho store, Mr.. Thompson
spoke politely to all present, Jogo includ-
ed. In the act of passing Jogo to go to
| the end Of the counter where NJ. Brooks
| was standing, Mr.. Thompson had to pass
the negro. In doing so, he said to him
| 10, what are you going to do with that
stick, Let me see it, The stick was
instantly raised above Mr. Thompson's
head in threatening attitude. At this
critical juncture Mr.. Thompson took
hold, either Of the stick or the negroes
arm, and said to him; Put down that
stick Upon this 10 had resort to his
'hip pocket in which he had snugly hid
away a small, new pistol, but which no
tirely from its hiding place by the catch
ing of the hammer in tho lining of his
rocket. At the moment the negro had
| the weapon half way out of his pocket,
Mr.. Thompson, after crying out to hin
to put down that pistol drew his own
pistol and fired, the ball missing the ne
gro. During this time, both parties had
hold of the stick. The negro finally sue
ceeding in disengaging the pistol from
his pocket, and just as it came ont, bring
| ing the lining with it, NJ. Thompson
fired the second shot, which took effect,
and 10 fell to the floor cornse. Mr..
Thompson voluntarily surrendered him.

TaE CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATION.

The denomination of Hon. 3.
w. Robertson, at Baton Rouge,
on the 9thinst., is result which
will be acceptably appreciated
by a vast majority of the Dem
ocracy and of the whole people
ofthe 9th CongressionalDi District.
AS much so, will it be to the en-
tire party throughout the State.
His eminent services during the
terms in which he has repre-
sented us in the Congress have
met a just response at the hands
of his immediate constituency,
and have made him among the
foremost in the confidence ofthe
people ofthe entire State. While
vigilantly attending to the wants
of his own district, those great
measures OF general public in
terest which involve so much of
the prosperity, not only of our
State, but of this whole section
of country, have received his in
defatigable laborsand able sup
port.
The nomination is an addi-
tional elementof strength to the
democracy of the district in the
approaching presidential con-
test, even though it's voice is
not questioned, for it is hardly
possible that any we'll informed
observer harbors any doubt as
to the vote of the district in
November next, but it may not
be tout of order" to suggest that
an overweening confidence is
often, of itself, dangerous ele-
ment of weakness, fruitful many
times ofinaction and consequent
OefeaC. Leu us not not then tall
into this fatal error. Personal
inactivity, the result of afeeling
of perfect security, is oft times
thenursery of failure and defeat.
Let every Democrat remember
this and act as though the Sue
cess of our glorious cause hung
upon his volition. Let one and
all not only go to the polls to
cast their own ballots, but go to
work earnestly and energetical-
ly to bring forward those who
are vascillating, that their voices
may be cast in unfolding the
laws under the constitution.
