We learn with sincere regret Of the
death of Mr.. John H. stanard, an old cit
izen of Baton Rouge whose acquaintance
we made there nearly two years ago.

He had suffered long and had borne his Attic

was one Of our Oldest citizens and perhaps the
Oldest printer III the town, having done his last
from his earliest childhood IN printing Office
and was recognized by all who knew hin:, as an
honest, true and good man. He leavessa family
of mol piess children to mourn his loss.

L. A. MARTIEET, Secretary.
DIR. Darrall, who is a member Of the
Congressional committee, attempted to
forestall its inevitable recognition of the
regular Republican nominee by forward
ing a mendacious dispatch to Col. Hen
derson announcing that Judge Beattie
had received the nomination from con-
ntion containing majority of the
legal delegates, but the true situation
was so plain that it is MOTTO be wondered
at that the Congressional committee
promptly decided to recognize Senator
Kellogg and ignore Judge Beattie.
The Baton Rouge Capitolian- .adrocate
doubtless Judging from the state of af
fairs which exists in its own city during
the sessions of the General Assembly,
said last week that :" the contest for the
Republican Congressional nomination of
the Third District has transformed Don
aldsonviie into Il pantiemonium, where
free lunclling and drinking have been
apportoned to the delegates and would
be delegates" etc. AS the rival conyen-
tiuus were conducted in an orderly and
respectable manner and passed off with
out so much as a squabble or street Fl ght,
and as the delegates, the candidates and
their friends spent between two and
three thousand dollars here for board,
lodging, hall rent, music, ETC., Donald
senville can stand the pressure, Will! or
without the neighborly sympathy Of the
Cap.-11d.
Mr.. Geo. 3. Loud, formerly citizen of
Louisiana and more recently Deputy
Collector Of Customs at Pensacola, has
resigned that Office and accepted COM
mission AS Justice Of the Peace rendered
him by the Democratic Governor Of Flor
ida. The Pensacola ddrance- Gazette thus
comments:
This paper believes that the appointment was
| majority of the bar of this city. While we do
| not approve as a general thing of Democratic
Governors appointing Radicals we believe that
this was 4 proper exception. MIR. Loud comes
up to the Jeffersonian standard-"he is honest
and capable" He has letter endorsing him
from the leading business houses Of Pensacola,
and nearly every. enc. If not every one of the
Consulates at this port. He should be proud of
| this testimonial; and we wish he would quit the
Republican and join the Democratic party.

THE TWO CONVENTIONS,

The snhjoined telegram, which was
transmitted to the secretary of the Re-
publican Congressional Committee at
Washington by Messrs. Fontelicu and
Martinez, chairman and secretary Of the
regular Republican Congressional con-
vention held at Donaldsonvillo last
week, sets forth in a truthful and con-
else manner the organization and action
of the bona .fide convention and depicts
the farcical character Of the boiling as
sembly that placed Judge Beattie in
nominations:

No long ago. while visiting with 4
friend, who. by the way Is a first class
practical housekeeper, the conversa-
sion turned upon the different plans
pursued in getting breakfast. This
meal-as well as otlers-to be :hor-
oushly enjoyed, and to be beneficial
physically, should not be eaten in a
hurry.
But the majority of people. not only
eat in a hurry. but as soon as the meal
is swallowed-1ct masticatcd-jumr
up from the table. and in less than five
minutes are hard at work; whereas, if
they would allow themselves a few
minutes rest after eating their food
would not only diges, better. but they
would accomplish in the end more
actual work.
Women usually come to the table
too much exhausted with worl..in the
kitchen, the pantry or the dairy, to be
able 10 eat 4 good, comfortable
meal. We frequently hear them say,
81 am too tired to eat" and it is wise
provision of nature that extreme fatigue
is usually accompanied by loss of ap-
petite.
This undue haste, in preparing the
meals, might in great measure be
avoided, il woman would use more
head-work. in pursuing their various
daily labors. As dearly loved friend
once wrote to me. ..you must let your
head save your heels. This good adj
vice. and the ways by which it may be
applied to the housekeeping are innu-
merable.
In the matter of preparing break
fast, the majority of our housekeepers,
leves everything to be done in the
morning: whereas the most of the work
could be done the night before. Es-
pecialy is this necessary in cold wealth.
er. Every woman knows how disa-
greeable it is to grind coffee, peel po-
tatoes, pound steak. mix biscuits, etc,
when the thermometer stands At zero,
and the fire doesn't want to burn; when
every extra poke, or fresh stick only
plunges the fire into mass of half
chared wood, and the woman into fresh
proxysms of despair.
In the first place. see to it, that YOU
have enought dry wood, to fill the
stove twice. Don't depend on the
guide mon" to dry it, but scold him
like sixty if he does not split it small.
Put ii in the oven yourself, during the
day and let it get as dry as finder. Be-
fore retiring, clean the stove out thor
oughly, of all ashes: and SCOT; see that
the air chambers under the oven are
free, and then put in your shavii.gs,
then some coarser kindling. Oh this
YOUR fine dry wood, close the stove
and in the morning match will build
the fire.
The biscuit can be mixed and placed |
in the pan, the potatoes peeled, the
the steak pounded, the teakettle rnsed
and filled with fresh water. All this
being done and the coffee pot all ready
YOU will find that getting breakfast,
even on cold morning IS not such
d,sagreeable job after all.
While the breakfast is cooking, the
cook can comb her hair nicely, sweep
and Out the room in order, and set the
table. If the stove is good one, and
the wood is good, and placed in pro-
perly. the first fire will cook the break
fast.

Political subjects are interesting to a
large number of people; the fate of
Guiteau attracts universal attention

narrowly watched: but the paramount
matter with the whole body of tie peo-
pie Is the crop of the current year. / his
is vital. This affects all business. Every
mans wages are in some degree depen-
dent on the quantity and quality of the
crop. 70 the business man 1t implies
expanded or curtailed operations. To
real estate owners it signifies high or
low prices or no demand at all To
railroad employees it import: full time
and good pay, or the reverse: to share
holders it is to bring dividends or
year without returns, to the party in
power generally victory or defeat: to
all degree of happiness or a period OF
stress and hardship. The interest in all
other questions is indirect and causual.
The concern about the crops IS to the
great mass direct and personal. The
reverses and missfortunes Of others may
be borne with degree OF fortitude:
those which come home to each
individual and every household,
and cannot he shifted to other should

{ OttOn Manufactures at the South

A recent item of general news de-
clares that a new company, with a
million dollars capital, will be organized
about the first of January to build a
new Gotten mill at Augusta, Ga. Over
100000 of stock was subscribed in
New York, Boston and Philadelphia,
and the balance in Augusta. This
makes $1,000, 900 subscribed for cotton
mills IN Augusta within three years.
When the fact is taken into account
that all the Augusta mills have made
07'ey fovteen PER cent. on their capital
within the last year. it is not at all sur
prlslng that the stock of new mills finds
ready market There is abundant
room for many more cotton mills at the
South, which can be made to paw
equally well with those of Augusta, and
Northern capital is certain to seize
upon these rch opportunities.
