The New Orleans Observer thinks
that the citizens of New Orleans
lost golden opportunity to make
political capital for themselves,
during the recent memorial SER
vices in that CITY, by not placing
the colored delegations in the GEN.
ter of the procession. and then an
nouncing the fact to the world, as
an evidence of their wisdom and
great political good sense" The
fact probably is that the citizens OF
New Orleans were too much over
come by feelings Of genuine sorrow
to think for an instant of stopping
to perform an act SO disreputable
as that of transforming a funeral
procession into a political machine.
The same cannot be said, however,

Have you seen him? He stands
in the room with bis back to the
stove and tells how hs could run
a newspaper; how he could be as
Independent rs a hog on ice and
call things by their right names;
how he would expose corruption in
high places; how he would write
good common sense-noce of your
frivolous, try-to-be.funny stuff; how
be would print a paper tina.
would have some life about it.
some variety. and not so much
sameness. Thsn he eriticises other
peoples methods of conducting
newspapers, and just wishes some
one would give him a chance to
show his journalistic ability. The
way to cure one of these chaps
is to get him to agree to write a
sensible article every day for a week.
Before the week is out he is sure to
be pumped dry, and viii cape worse
for an idea than a chicken ever did
with the pip.-Erchan9e.

Broom-corn is likely at DO distant
day to resoiutionlze the breadstuff
supply Of the world. A process has
been discovered by which the finest
and most delicious -four can be
made from the seed to the extent
of one-half its weight. and leave the
other half valuable food for max
ing beef and milk. The average
yield per acre is three hundred
bushels, and in many instances five
hundred bushels. or thirty thousand
pounds have been secured. Nor
does it exhaust the soil, like corn.
from the fact that it feeds from the
deepest soil, and assimilates its
food from q cruder state. 1t be-
longs to the same genus as the
sweet cane, commonly known rs
the sorghum. which as on article of
food is growing rapidly in public es-
TEEN. and from the seed of which q
most nutritious -four can be OBJ
tanned.

since they laid aside their mourn
full aabiliHents, in trying to create
political capital out of the fact that
they were assigned to position in

respect or sorrow for the dead
President.

TRAGEpY.-One day this week two
of our citizens rode ont to the
Tchefuncta in sulkey, on hunt
ing expedition. They hitched the
horse to a tree near the river, and
entered the swamp. The horse
probably grew tired of the situa-
ton, for he soon broke loose and
started for home. He was caught
on the road by passer-by and
brought to town. A coat and hand
kerchief were found in the buggy,
both of which were spotted with
fresh blood. These silent but CORY
witnesses plainly told that terri,
BILE tragedy had taken place, and
that at least one life Lad doubtless

the unfortunate occurrence, and he
soon returned With the live bodies

elated over the fact that they were
not compelled to walk home, after
their long tramp through the woods.
