PrBLJcASs OF ALL SHADES or OPINION
In and about this city yesterday afternoon
and evening the one subject Of discussion
among politicians of both parties and all fac
tions, and among great numbers of citizens,
whose only active participation in politics is
the casting of votes ut elections, was the res
ignation of the New-York Senators. The al
most universal belief was that they had re-
signed with the expectation of reelection, and
in the hope of restoring their influence in the
Senate and the party. Talks with many Re-
publicans of all shades of opinion are reported
herewith. The great majority of Republicans
in the city disapproves the course of the Sena-
tors. Very many express deep regret, because
they think that the division In the party has
been made much worse. The prospect of the
reelection of the two Senators was earnestly
discussed. the prevalent expectation being that
they wolld be successful because of the num-
Der Of Conkling Republicans in the Assembly.
Senator Platt arrived in the city late last
evening.

The question OF licensing or not
licensing the sale of intoxicating
liquors is now being discussed and
voted upon in some of the parishes.
Passing laws or ordinances abolish
ing licenses for such n purpose, will
simply cut of that source of public
revenue; for, to use the common
saying. there are many ways to kill
a dog besides oking him to death
with soft butter, and when a man
is dying for a drink, he will hav.
it, license or no license. Once an
old lady had a grocery. where the
tale of liquor was forbidden by law.
and she had wooden pig made and
painted red; she charged five or ten
cents for seeing this curious pig.
but she always gave drink of
whisky for lagniappe. Some small
dealers now sell bit of candy, and
give drink of whisky, or some
tobacco for lagniappe. Laws will
not stop whisky drinking; the re-
form must be in the drinkrr himself
A jury of Whisky drinkers will not
convict the man who let them have
the whisky. especially when it was
siuva to them.-H. Landry Demo-

A CHILD WITH A DOGS HEAD.

There is a singular freak of nature
near Greensburg, which has never
been made public. There is fam
lily residing near there which has a
child that was born in human form,
with the exception that the child
had a dogs head on its body. 1t is
now in its twelfth year, hale and
hearty, but barks like dog. The
family served, at the time of its
birth, death warrant on the doc
tor attending and q neighbor woman
who had been called in for the oc-
casion stated that they would be
killed if they ever revealed the mis-
fortune. There are FIVE other chill
dren in the family. who are all per-
feet and Intelligent. How this fact
reached the ear of the writer is that
party who was on his way to
Colorado revealed it to him just
before departing. He said he visit
ed the house one day on business,
but found the parents out and the
children were to small to explain
intelligently their whereabouts. In
looking about the house to see
whether they were in any of the
rooms, he opened the door of the
room in which the monstrosity was
confined; after taking good look
at it he was about to close the door
when the parents came in at another
door. The father Immediately drew
his revolver ON the man, and there
made him promise never to reveal
the fact, or then and there meet his
death. He answered in the affirma-
tive, and there learned that Vile
the mother was en- cients, and few
months before the birth of the child,
she had visited a neighboring fam
lily who had large ferocious dog,
which attacked her. The family
says that no one living has seen the
child but the doctor and the female
attendant upon its birth, and them
selves. The matter has made their
life a torture, and while they. have
prayed daily for its death, it con.
tinues to remain hearty. 1t barks
occasionally and raises quite
furore in the room, but to prevent
the public from suspectihg anything
they constantly keep several dogs
about the place. The family are
well-to-do and own quite a valu'
able farm.-Cdpitolian.

We hope the meeting at the
Courthouse next Wednesday even
ing will be well attended. The OBJ
ject is one in which we are all in
tereste d. A bridge across the Bogue
Falia, at Covington. is public ne
cessity, alike beneficial to all classes
of our citizens. Merchants, farmers,
wagoners, and in fact oil who have
occasion to cross the river, either
for business or pleasure, must ac-
knowledge that the loss of the "big
bridge" was indeed 4 public calam-
ity, and we should all willingly as
sist in rebuilding it, as soon as pos
sible. If our citizens will all mite
and take an interests il the matter,
we have no doubt the bridge can
be replaced at an early day. All
should contribute their mite"
toward the accomplishment of this
object. We, for one, although very
seldam using the bridge, and then
only while taking little stroll in
that vicinity for pleasure, are will
ing to practice what We preach.
and if it is decided, at the meeting
on Wednesday next, to have the
bridge rebuilt, you cal put us
down for five dollars, as a starter.
Now let every one contribute as
literally. according to his means
land very few have less of the
"Deedful" than we have, and the
funds necessary TO build q good
substantial bridge. can be raised in
very short time.

On last Saturday u darkey at n.
L. Huwer's store bet dollar that
he could burst dry goods box nm
inch thick with his head. He bntted
against it "goat" fashion, and broke
the box into pieces. He then
wagered that no man in the crowd
could knock him down with an
inch plank by striking him on the
head. A six foot aarkey picked up
plank and came down with all
his might upon the boys head, and
the plank shivered to pieces with
ont moving the festive butter. He
then, for treat for the crowd, al
lowed another man TO break a brick
over his head which was done. We
claim for this darkey the champion

Contemplating by machinery has
long been q dream of the Southern
planters. The risk of planting re-
wolves about TIE picking season.
The hollis open irregularly, but
ttey must be plucked when they
are at a certain stage of ripeness, or
be lost in whole or part. S. r. Cock
Grill, ce-President of the Missis-
sippi Valley Planters Association
believes lie has arrived at a solu-
ton Of the problem. He says that
it is fact that the hollis will con-
tinue to ripen and open in due time
if the plant is cut by the roots and
stacked; there is no difficulty in sep
arating the cotton from the boil by
machinery, if the stalks can be
gathered and fed at one time. The
apparatus foi this process has been
invented and works we'll. But every.
thing depends on the trnth of Mr..
Cockerilrs assertion that cotton in
its last stages will ripen in the stack.
