upon the bond and the negro was
released from custody, and went with
Mr.. Turnage to work on his farm.
On last Wednesday during the

A notable instance of dogs devo-
ton is thus reported from Caldwell,
Texas, June 2lst
At the burial this evening of the
infant daughter of Cap. Joe Roland, it
was observed that dog that had
been allowed to play with the child
while alive, had followed the remains
to the grave, and while arrangements
we're being made for the interment Of
the baby, the dog hung around the
corpse, moaning most pileously and
otherwise exhibiting its grief, and
when the grave was opened it jumped
iu and refused to come out for coax
ing or scoldinS. At last the dog was
tied with rope and taken from the
ground and secured to a tree to pre-
vent its going into the grave again.
After the burial rites were performed.
and the dog was approached TO lie
turned loose, it was found dead.

Railroads In North Louisiana.

Some tine since, in writing about
the railroad prospects on the other
eide of the river. we suggested that
there was already o charter of road
from Alexandra to the Arkansas line.
running to the west of the conten'-
plated Gould road. and through q coun-
try much in need Of better market ia
cilitics. We have since discovered
that we werc correct in our cODjec-
lures, the charter having been granted
by the Legislature on the 22nd OF
March, 1877. We observe in q recent
number of the Alexandria Democrat
. call for meeting of the corporators
in that town. We learn from other
sources that it is their object to effect
On organization as soon as possible,
and to provide for its speedy construc-
tion, by q connection perhaps with the
Morgan road, whose contemplated
outlet has been preoccupied by the
New Orleans Pacific. The men who
lave charge Of the work are well
known to US, and have the character,
energy aud enterprise to carry throuh
any undertaking in which they may
embark.
At last accounts the engineers were
looking out for the best route for the
Gould extension, and it is understood,
we believe, that the whole force from
the New Orleans Pacific will be set to
work on it as soon as the latter shall
have been completed. The report in
our yesteday's edition in reference to
the sale aud speedy completion of the
road to Monroe is undoubtedly true.
So, it will be seen that our North
Louisiana friends will soon have . sur.
felt Of railroads They ought to feel
happy after having waited 30 long for
them. Having got other people to
build there roads for them, now le,
them do their part by inviting immi
grants aud selling them small farms aI
reasonable rates. If they take up an
idea that the roads will Immediately
create gold mines on their lands. anC
put fabulous prices upon them, then in
deed will the road prove curse instea(
of q blessing. They have q good coun
try, with good people in it. There il
no reason in the world why, with {
little prudence and energy, it. shyul(
