4 GIRL OF THE PERIOD.

She met me at the parlor door
The darling whom hoped to win
cried, My sweet ethereal love"
She answered, smiling, That's too thin
\ lovely Venus statuette
Was standing on a corner bracket;
! said, What such charms to thlne
She blushed, and answered, Cheese the racket
20, dearest maid to win thy love
My body in the dust I'd humble;
Canst understand such love as mineg
She whispered, bashfuly, II tumble J"
yielding glance from her dark eyes
Gave TO my passion full excuse;
snatched her TO my heart, and heard,
You're just to cute for any use y
pressed upon her willing lips
A kiss that nearly drove me crazy; @#4a
And, as the osculation ceased,
She murmured, gently, That's just daisy"
But "O," she cried, II hear my pa!

Just one more kiss, my dear and then
You'd better ship the tra-la-loo ~ III AL

The Variation of the Pulse.

Within the limits of health there may be
considerable variation in the frequency of
the pulse, the number of pulses per minute
differing with age, sex, stature, muscular ac-
ton, mental action, the state Of the digestive
process, and the time of day. The average
frequency per minute is approximately indi-
Gated by the following table given by Car

In inllammatory or acute diseases the pulse
may rise to 120 or even $50 in the adult, and
become so frequent in the child that it can
not be counted Muscular exertion, mental
excitement, digestion, alcoholic drink, and
elevation above the sea level accelerate the
pulse. and as a general rule it is more fre

rest, diet, cold or blood-letting. The pulse

less frequent in the tall than in the short
person, the variation being about four beats
for each six inches in height.

WHERE Is THE CAPITAL?

Our esteemed contemporary of the
Baton Rouge CAPIToLIAN, who has
all along been a most earnest and
persistent advocate of the policy Of
calling an extra session of the gener-
al assembly and has implored the
governor with tears in his eyes, as it
we're, to take prompt action in the
premises in order to rid the body
polite of the many evils with which
it was afflicted, now that the execu-
tive has acceded to his request, is
much disguised because the extra
session was not called to meet in Ba-
ton Rouge instead of New Orleans.
He quotes the articles Of the consti-
tuition bearing upon the subject and
theoretically declares that no action
had by the Legislature sitting at New
Orleans will be legal. Nor are we SO
sure that he is not correct in this
view.
Aside from the question of the le-
gality of the acts of the legislature
assembled at any other place than
the state capital as designated by the
organic law, we extend to our con-
temporary and to the boarding house
and saloon keepers of Baton Rouge
our profound sympathy at the pros
pect that they may be deprived OF
Che rich harvest which the assemblage
in their midst of so eminent a body
of solons would undoubtedly bring
thcm.--Shreveport Standard.
The New Orleans papers and the
Governor have settled the question
While the Constitution designates
Baton Rouge they have located the

we must certainly agree with them and
believe that Governor McEnery has COM
mitted grave error in calling the ex-
ira session to meetin that city. Baton
Rouge paid thirty-fve thousand dollars
as an investment, expecting to realize
certain profits from the additional BUSH
ness that would naturally accrue from
the establishment Of the seat Of gov
eminent there. TKs meeting Of the
extra session Of the Assembly in New
Orleans deprives her Of q Part Of
this expected profit, and therefore to
a certain extent, she is damaged !;
a suit against the State to recover
these damages may be the next in order.
It would be rather humiliating to have
the law that may be enacted ia New Or
leans sci aside by the Supreme Court
and also pay Baton Rouge because the
session was not legal. The subject is
worthy Of serious consideration. and we
hope the Governor will reconsider his
proclamation and convene the Assembly
at the seat Of government, then there
will be no question as to the legality Of
It's acts.

ExPEDIENCY VS.. LEGALITY.


The circumstances we have made
regarding the violation Of the Con.
stitution, by Governor McEnery, il
converting the extra session Of thu
Assembly at New Orleans, has at.
tracted the attention of patriotic
citizen, a jurist of the highest stand.
ing and recognized ability,-an ex'
Justice of our State Supreme Court
who, under the signature of NoRTH
LOUISIANA, has favored us with hit
views on the subject in question.
The communication under thai
nom de plume appears in this issue
1t needs no commentator at Oul
hands. Our readers, especially those
belonging to the legal profession
will find the subject thoroughly dis.
sected in technical terms and in 9
manner evidencing the familiarity
that the writer has with all that APP.
pertains to constitutional law.
1t must have beer noticed that our
New Orleans contemporaries have
avoided any comments on the sub.
.iect, from a legal standpoint.
The plea of expediency, alone,
has thus far been advanced by them
in support OF what we believe is al
illegal act
1t would seem as though the mat
ter regarded only the boarding house
and saloon keepers of New Orleans
and Baton Rouge.
Wehaye been unwilling to allow the
real issue to be SO ignobly covered.
We do not mean to be sentimental
when we call the Attention of the peo-
pie of the State, and of the Demo
cratic party especially, to the fact
that q serious inroad in the letter and
spirit of the Constitution has been
made by Governor McEnery.
There alone do we rest the issue.
IF the people of the State are will
ling to have the organic law tram
pied under foot and to abide the
evil consequences which must neces-
sarily follow, solely to afford first
class hotel, club and bar-room
accommodations to our States
men and Legislators, then we must
bow to their wishes. :
II such be the case we can but de-
ride that public opinion which be-
lieves that we have reached a period
when our public men are so much in
need of the Establishments Of a me-
tropolis, that the plain accommoda-
tons Of a city of over seven thousand
inhabitants are insufficient to supply
their necessities.
In it's edition of last Saturday, the
Democrat, great powerin Louisiana,
has treated the subject with a super
ciliousness that must strike with APP
prehension all who prefer constitu-
tional to personal government.
SO far onr influential contemporary
has not deigned to notice the ques-
ti0n, otherwise than by intimating
that the journals of the Capital and
the parishes had departed from the
dictates of reason by protesting
against an act which other men, be-
sides their editors, were openly con-
demning.
We ask Of the Democrat, and our
other New Orleans contemporaries,
whose duty it is to guide and instruct
the people, to come down to the full
fillment of their mission, by present
ing legal arguments instead of simple
excuses which can easily be over
come.
