In the vicinity OF Brandywlne June
ton, Chester county, there is a farm OF
200 acres which has been in the family
Of the present owner for nearly 200
years. He has in his possession the

Penn.
Mrs. John Wilson of Newlin town
ship, Chester county, has among her
floral collection cactus that has been
in her possession for over thirty years.
At present it is blooming with one hun
dred aud seventeen flowers, while last
year its floral display numbered over one
hundred.
The Lascaster county boys are receiv-

boys say it pays better than picking
huckleberrIes.
Owing TO the ravages of the army
worm. the farmers of Chester county
have begun earlier than usual to harvest
their crops. The grass crop will be
lipht, owing to he drought, but nearly
up TO the average.

The BungIing Defense Of Car
field.

From the New York Herald, Ind.
A bull in a china shop is a faint
image of the part Governor Foster
has played, unless General Gar
fields pamphlet, addressed to the
simple-minded farmers of his dis
lrict, can pass the ordeal Of intelli-
gent public criticism. 1t seems that
the pamphlet did not satisfy even
the limited Republican audience to
which it was addressed. In spite OF
it General Garfield lost nearly six
thousand five hundred votes in the
election which followed its publica-
ton. We never heard of this
pamphlet until Governor Foster
took the bold risk Of advertising it.
He (Garfeld) is on the defensive in
any event until these grave charges
are disposed of. If he can refute
them, let him do it once for all. If
he declines to make any defense the
natural presumption will be that he
has no defense which would help
him. The case against him has a
terribly ugly look as presented by
his adversarieS; the recent apollo
gies of his friends are as damaging
as the original accusations; unless
he comes to the rescue he is beaten
out of sight before the campaign is
fairly opened.

NEW YORK, June II, 1880.
GoI. YIN. Mac Williams, Bait. Nd:
DEAR SIR: Yours of the 11lh instant
is at hand, and in reply thereto permit
me to say that the statement copied and
published in the Baltimore Sun has no
foundation in fact. l have made no
comproui,e with Mr.. Tilden, nor with
any one else On his account. l am OPP
posing Mr.. Tilden on principle, and
shall continue to oppose him politically
until the Democratic National Conven-
ion makes their choice of the nominees,
and should .they choose Mr.. Tilden,
will not support him. l have made
his statement time and again, and there
should be no misunderstanding of my
position. Our people do not intend to
propose any candidate. 1t would be
unwise and injudicious for us to do so.
The choice of the convention will be
our choice, except In the single instance
of Tilden. He and his friends have
tried to destroy our organization, and
for no other cause except that we would
not favor him. We can't afford to
support any man who will carry his
preiudices so far. Yours truly,
JOHN KELLY.

At the secoDd session of the Demo-
cratic joint caucus, Wednesday eve-
ming, Gen. Randall Lee Gibson re-
ceived the nomination for United
States Senator, the vote standing
thus: Gibson, SIS; McEnery, 80 !;

On Thursday the selection of the
caucus was formally ratified at a joint
session Of the two houses of the Gen
.eral Assembly, Gen. Gibson receiviag
every one Of the l22 votes cast. His
speech of acceptance was eloquent,
graceful and patriotic, worthy Of the
man and the occasion. ..z....
The CHIEF congratulates the mem
bers of the General Assembly npop
their wise choice of Senator. Gen.
Gibson already has national reputa-
ton rs an able and pure minded gem
tleman and statesman, and he will win
fresh laurels for himself and render
great service to Louisiana in. the ex-
allied position to which he has been
promoted. His term as Senator will
begin March 4, 1888, and continue six
years.

The contest for the parochial print.

The contest for the parochial pri1t-
ing Of Sabine was lively one. The
S0uthrOn offered to do the work at a
discount of fifty per cent. from legal
rates F.; the Inde1 proposed not only to
perform the work gratis, but rendered
bonus of thirty cents for the privi-
lege. It is needless to add that the
Inder carried of the "prize," but the
manner Of its acquisition does the
paper no credit. Legitimate opposi-
ton may be the life of trade, but such
cut throat business as this, is neither
profitable or praiseworthy. We think
a newspaper does quite enough graz
tuitous service in the Ordinary course,
without going out of its way to solicit
dead head patronage. 1t is useless to
plead public spirit in extenuation of
such step as the Index has done !;
the motive is apparent, and no one
would be so foolish as to think such
a bid would have been made it the
lnder was the only paper in Sabine.

and Labor Plentiful-No Kansas
Fever-Nanagement of the
burnside Places for the
Year 188O-Personal.
ASCENSION, Jan. Is, 1880.
The season has been quite favorable up
70 the present date, and the planting of
cane for the now crop is progressing sat
isfactorily. Every thing promises well.
The fall plant and rattoons are in excel
lent condition, and good stand of both
is looked for.
Labor is more plentiful in this section
than was ever known at this season Of
the year. The darkies-men, women and
children-are all working with a vim,
and manifest no interest in Kansas.
Sensible people, for to find better coun-
try than Louisiana you must go UPWARD,
not westward.
The new lcvee at Riverton is now COM
pletely finished.
In the beginning Of a new year it may
be interesting to some of your readers to
learn by whom tho Burnside places"
in the fifth ward, are to be managed in
1880. As in the past, the Orange Grove
will continue under the charge of that
experienced planter, E. w. Lawless, as
sisted by D. H. Tucker. The Conway
will also remain unchanged, with c. w.
Ray, manager, and J. NJ. Breaux assist
ant. The boss place, Clark, retains the
boss manager, James X. Tucker; w. E.
Bateman assistant. Messrs. Jonn w.
Tucker and Sam. j. B0ote-associated
together for the past two years as mana
ger and assistant of the d naldson place
have each been the recipient Of pro-
motion. Tucker is now M anager of the
Riverton, aud Boote replaces him as
manager of the Donaldson. The promo
ton in each case was eminently de-
served. Mr.. George Chastant is the
able assistant of the Riverton.

The selections above noted have
given general satisfaction, as al the
new Judges are men Of recognized
