Mayor of Baton Rouge and able editor

When heavy rains follow long spell,

Tuesday morning last, a colored wo-

building at Mr.. Bartoli's residence, on
North street, was called to get up at
about the hour of four o'clock. Not
responding to the call, the door Of the

The contractor for carrying the mails

Burglars entered the counting

Burglars entered the counting
room Of the American office in
Nashville last Friday night. 1t
made christians out of them. When
they saw the poverty lying around
loose their consciences smote them
black and blue. The American
pretended they carried off a few
second hand postage stamps, and
that there was a fifty dollar bill
in a safe about two blocks down the
street which they dared not touch.
This Is in keeping with its rose
colored way of dealing with things,
however, and we dare say they
took the stamps solely to have
them reclaimed and disinfected and
then return them for use. The
American is doing a good work for
the world and none of its exploits
or endeavors have exceeded this
one in bringing men to realize that
all is indeed vanity. We congrat-
ulate-but we cannot tell which
side to congratulate.

Safe at Long Branch.

President Garfield was removed
to Long Branch Tuesday. The
train started at $3.50, A. NJ. and
reached it's destination at 1:2O
The president bore the fatigue he
roically-in fact, seemed to enjoy
it. His pulse on STARTING was 1I6
and at the end of the journey was
lO2. He waved his hand to the
people as he left the White House
l. an express wagon. He was
placed in a car prepared specially
for the purpose and was hurried
out of the miasmatic poisons that
hover around the capital to the
fresh breezes and invigorating sur
ronndings OF Long Branch. at the
rate Of mile minute. His ply
slclans were greatly pleased with
the results and highest hopes were
entertained for while, but later Ia
the evening his pulse ran up to ia
ard then fell back to lis. There
was an air Of foreboding observable
about the cottage and it is feared
that the result may be disastrous.
The doctors say he could not have
lived long at the White House and
that they do not expect him to raj
ly for day or two. He was un
doubleday very low yesterday.

IN MEMORIAM.

At o'clock, A, NJ, Aug. 10, 1881, the
happy household of Bro. w. g. Spence,
of Lawrenceburg was made sad by the
death OF little Mary, the youngest and
only girl OF five children, aged l year,
5 months and a days
The affliction of the family is great,
but we rejoice that they mourn not as
those having no hope, for when they
kneeled around the cold and lifeless
body OF little Mary, and father and
mother prayed that they all might meet
their loved one in Heaven, they real
lied by faith that God had not suffered
her to perish as do the flowers OF the
field, plucked by ruthless hands from
the parent stems, and cast away; but
mad reached down from heaven, and
with His own hand plucked up the little
rosebud and placed it in the rOse-gar-
den above, where, watered by showers
of Divine grace, she will live and bloom
forever. May the prayer OF the afflicted
parents, which is ours also, be heard
and answered. G.. >. GABARD.

TWENTY PERFORMING
ELEPHANTS.

Their Wonderful Exhibition OF
! Intelligence. What They Can
Do, and How They Do 1t
Thousand blocking to See
Them.
On Thursday, Sept. 20, Forepaugh will
exhibit here with his unpar alleled es-
tablishment. OF the wonder moving
scenes presented by his twenty trained
elephants, recent exchange remarks
"Volumes have been written on the
sagacity of the elephant, and from time
immemorial among the favorite stories
chosen to entertain the infant mind,
varied and interesting anecdotes of
these pOnderous beasts. Even those of
more mature years delight in reading
the exploits of elephant hunting, and
the thrilling adventures of Asiatic
tourists are never more graphically
portrayed nor surrounded with greater
interest than when enlivened by haz-
ardOus encounters and hair breath es-
capes from enraged specimens the ell
ephantic genus. No animal when
reused is more i'm placable or more diff
cult to avert from the object of its fury.
In view of these facts Mr.. Forepaugh,
whose sterling show exhibited here
last night, is entitled to unbounded
credit for the enterprise exhibited in
collecting twenty or these huge beasts
and reducing them to such subjugation
as TO make possible this exhibition i'm a
series OF tricks and evolutions that sur
pas any anecdotes written or related OF
elephantine sagacity, and tax the cred
ulity of those who do not witness their
performance for themselves. This is
the largest and most perfectly trained
herd of elephants ever under the con
troll OF one man, and the interest Of the
performance is wonderfully enhanced
by the extreme youth of their trainer,
MIR. Adam Forepaugh, jr., who is only
eighteen years of age, has this excep-
tioaal number of mountainous beasts
subject to his slightest will and manip-
ulates them with as much GOODNESS and
ease as though they were so many do
nestle animals and incapable OF taking
a sudden freak OF independence that
might result in a horrible death, not
only to himself, but to all who came in
their path. The performances of these
clumsy looking masses of flesh and
bones battles description and almost
challenge belief. They dance, go
military evolutions. give aero
batic exhibitions, perform on the tight
rope, and do a variety and mum Der of
tricks too numerous for par
Perhaps the most mar
velous of all their performances is the
grand elephantine pantomime which
was prepared expressly for them, and in
the course of which the sagacious
beasts give evidence OF their suscepti- !
bility to passions more than human in |
its vivid reality. They portray emo |
tional feelings of love, jealousy, hatred,
fear, anger, pride, mirth, grief, sar-
casm, contempt, and the like, in a man
ner so realistic as to almost carry con-
vtction of the truth OF the transmigrato- |
~ theories. Their performance last |
night was received with unbounded |
plaudits, and every man woman and |
child in the vast audience heaved |
sigh of regret as they were finally |
from the ring in stately order"
