Editor ST. LANDRY DEMOCRAT:

Nothing that | eau hear OF has hap
pened since my last; not even enough
for half stick full OF matter. l will
try and scribble something and not say
anything about the waste-basket," for
that is stereotyped expression OF coun-
try correspondents when they can't
think of anything else to say, and at the
same time, knowing they can't, write a
sentence worthy of being published in
an almanac, let it be funny or au.tunny.
Now l know can write for l have al
ready seen some of the Outbursts Of my
mighty brain copied in the primers and
blue back spelling books now in use by
the Feejee islanders, Hottentots, &c.
So YOU see fear not the waste basket.
Yesterday being Sunday | put ON my
plug hat and with walking cane in
hand | strolled down the avenue to see
what could find on the wing. The
first thing my eyes gazed upon were
two young gallants in a buggy going to
see their "Cuty's." One had white
flower pinqed to his coat about the
size of a full grown artichoke, and the
other, oh, my! what a loving little
moustache he did have. And it those
two young gents did not win two hearts
before they departed for home l would
advise them to emigrate to Omaha"
The next place dropped in at was our
esteemed friends residence DIR. j. f.
Hawkins. 1t being the Doctors office
day found about fifty people gathered
there from different parts OF the parish.
The place looked to me like a hospital
there being so many patients to be
treated at once, but by dark every one
was attended to. Miss Hattie Haas
left for Opelousas last week to attend
part for New Orleans the latter part OF
her studies. 1t is with sad heart that
we part witlrMiss Belle as she is the
life OF Chicot amongst the young peo-
pie. But we trust ere long she will re-
turn to our midst crowned with the
honor she is struggling for. Last week
| took trip out to Bayou Beuf, and
after stopping few hours at Holmes
vile with Messrs. j. W. Muse & Co.,
and taking two glasses of Adams ale, /
wended my way to that famous place
Tiger Bend where l was kindly re-
ceived by Capt. A. NJ. Haas and John
O'Shane, Esq, and two as clever gentle
men as ever / did meet. The Belle
Cheney camp meeting is still in opera.
ton, at least meant to say that prepa-
rations are still going on and If the
weather permits a large crowd will
surely attend. Well, dear editor, as
said in the beginning, items are scarce
What do you think !? we have not had

When the special session of the
Tinted States Senate met the other
dav the Democrats were in the majority,
and elected Senator Bayard president ;
but after several new members were
admitted the Republicans We're in the
majority, and they turned Bayard out,
and elected Senator Davis president,
who is an independent with uncertain
leanings.

Gov. Wilt, whose death from con-
sumption has been long expected, died
at his residence in New Orleans last
Saturday night at half past twelve
O'Clock, and was buried at three o'clock
Monday afternoon aged rty-eight
wears. Few men have received SO many
political honors, and died so young.
Probably no other man has ever been
Mayor Of New Orleans, Speaker of the
House of Representatives, Lieutenant
Governor, and Governor, at any rate by
direct election to each Of these offices.
The whole State mourns for him.

Mourning Rules.

When President Garfield died many
papers turned their column rules, in
other words we're put in mourning. 1t
may be harsh way to disturb the
tender sentiment that prevails towards
the dead President, but many of these
same column rules that went into
mourning for him, about year ago
contained many statements not credi
table to "DeGolier Garfield" And
we have seen it stated by a Southern
paper that the South did not mourn
for the dead President elected by a
corrupt party, but for the upright and
honest man who happened to be Presi-
dent; therefore it was not the man who
was abused as "DeGolier Garfield"
but the candidate of the Republican
party. This reasoning leads us to the
conclusion that the Office holder who is
guilty Of rascalities is not responsible
for them, but that his political party
is-a conclusion that few will accept.
If newspapers would be sure they are
right before they abuse men of opposite
politics, turning their column rules
afterwards would not appear so ridicu-
ious' !. alMosS any DelhoclaIlc papei
