SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT.

The entertainment consisting OF
Charades aud short plays, given at
the Exchange Hall, by Mrs. Gray
sons school children, on the even
inc of last Friday was a very enjoy
able affair. The Alexandria Brass
Band, under the able leadership OF
Professor Petzsch, was present, and
their most excellent music added
greatly to the eclat of the occasion.
The little girls of Mrs. Ora, sons

Young gentlemen of Mr.. Pardee's

Editor Alexandria Democrat:
DEAR SIR-The substantial people
of Natchez, Miss. and Concordia Par
ish, La, are agitating the subject of
railroad from Vidalia to some point on
Red River. The road is already par.
italy constructed, and by united ef-
fnrt on the part Of the citizens of the
Red River valley and its Eastern trib
uta,ies, the road cans before the next
cotton moving season, be completed to
your doors. The people of Concordia
will donate $4,000 acres of land and
subscribe for stock, paying for it in
labor. material and provisions; Cata-
houla is awake and promises valuable
aid; Natclez will take big block OF
the stock; and it is hoped that Rapides,
deriving advantages of incalculable
value, will actively co operate in the
movement. A committee was appoin.
ted, at a meeting Oh Saturday last, tc
confer with your citizens, and notice
will be sent you when they may bt
expected at Alexandria.
This road, on its completion. sl'oult
make Alexandria the centre Of trade
and the one great city of the Red Rive
valley. By combination of fortunat
circumstances the managers Of the en-
terpli,e are confident that they Cal
put freight at your door at a pric
that is now paid for the same article
In New Orleans. You can order direc
from St. Louis or Cincinnati, and re
ceive goods from five to seven day
sooner than by the present lines {
, transportation. The road from Nal
chez to Jackson will saon be completed
and you will have direct line to a
: Eastern cities. With daily ma
, your post-office will have facilities
reaching all mel chants and planters
the valley more expeditiously than
possible from New Orleans. VIII

TIE REASON WHY.

The Shreveport Standard merci
Iessly exposes the defects OF the
Of 1879. Even the
Court Of Appeals, that soft bed mace
with such tender care for the repose
of twelve judges at $4,000 a year
each, is pronounced to bo "sinecNFes
created for the purpose OF giving
soft rluces to members of the Con
yention." How can the StanaaF@
have the hor,li,ooi to say such
naughty things when it is web
known that the ten country circuit
,indocs have not a whole days work
in every parish, or in each circuit
have not nearly as many cases as
would suffice for weeks work.
The Standard says:
Even the debt ordinance, on the
adoption of which the subllmty OF the
genius of the convention was expan-
Ied. and which WAS deemed so sacred
AZ to be beyond the pale of criticism.
turns out the bungling piece OF frann
we charged it ro be. and as in danger
of being nnlifed entirely by dec's.
ion of the Supreme Court. In short II
would be difficult to find anywhere a
worse niece of botchwoIk than this
constitution which was held forth as
the perfection of wisdom and o.
craftsmanship.
But for.all that the Standard does
not want another Convention, an'
the reason why is, that the mex
might be as bad as the last, and 81
it locks 20 the Supreme Co.rt t.
drive a coach and six through tn

e enough for that objection. 1t is to
