FOumd I'm Jail,

On Wednesday last an advertise
ment was inserted in the REPUBLICAN
for q Newfoundland dog, belonging
to James Brown, who lives on the
Spring road short distance from this
city, that had wandered away from
home. He was traced to this city, and
then lost sight of, Yesterday, Mr.. B. 9.
ceived word from Sheriff Clark, that
the dog was in Jail, having entered the
Jail and taken possession Of a cell Of his
own free will, where he appeared to be
perfectly contented. Mr.. Clark says
this is the second time the dog has been
in Jail and it seems rs though he has a
preference for the cells of a jail to the
free access of the farm.

He missed the .RepuDlrcnn. ,

A lady residing in our city has son
located In one of the cities of the faI
west, to whom she has been in the hab.
1t of sending the Daily REPUBLICAN.
For some time back she neglected to
have the paper served at her residence
and her son for the same time did not
receive letter or the paper, he accord
ingly wrote to his mother that if she
had neglected to write there was no rear-
son why she should not send him the
REPUBLICAN as he greatly missed it..
1t was as good to him as a letter, for it
kept him posted in what was going on
at home.

A Terrible NuIsance.

Those who have to come to Whining.

frequently complain grievously of a nui
sance dropped along the highway from
open night soil carts. Every night,
night carts are used contrary to law
and the city ordinances, and some OF
them are SO rickety and open that it is
impossible for them to hold the night

Another COIOred Cadet for West
PO1AG.

A special despatch from Washing
ton says;
Another colored young man will
sooD present himself as a candidate for
admission to the United States Mill
tary Academy. His name Is Lemuel
W, Livingston, and he resi- les in MSdi-
son county, Florida.
1t appears that before Colonel Bis.
bee, Of the Second Florida District,
was admitted to the seat which be.
longed to him, Judge Finley, the sit
ting member from that District, nomi-
mated a white youth to .he Academy,
and he was found deficient on exami-
nation.
Colonel Bisbee, upon being req ested
to fill the vacancy, decided to have a
competitive examination. Colonel
Bisbee then appointed board for that
purpose.
Two were Republicans, two were
Liberals and one was q Democrat.
Three or four white and one colured
young man presented himself for tx
animation. 1t was the unanimous iudg-
ment of the board that Livingston, tho
colored youth, had passed the best ex-
animation. Nevertheless, three mem-
bers, a majority, recommended that
one Of the white competitors, who had
not passed SO good an examina ion,
should receive the appointment. Colo
mel Bisbee refused to adopt this recon-
mendation, and so on August 28: next,
Livingat0n the colored youth, will
presen himself st West Point.
He received his education in the pub
lic schools and the Stanton Institute,
and is said to be very Intelligent
young man. .4 .r.....

OUR neRc>iAnTS.

The merchauts Of Claiborne parish have
Aet.d nobly dsring the recent crisis over
which we have jn-s passed. Il was y fact
we'll known to all at the very beginning u
the present year, that . large number Of
our planters both white aud black, would
not be- able to make = crop without some
assistance. And none undrrstsod the sit
nation better than the merchants all over
the parish; for they soon resolved to stand
by their customers, though in CASE OF An-
other failure they mnst have known that
they, too, would have been placed in a
similar situation. 50 in every portion Of
the parish the plauter- we're able To make
terms with some one Of orr mer-
chants aud did. The merchants CON-
piled with their contracts by furnishing
supplies necessary for each farmer and th.
farmers were thereby enabled TO cultivate
their lands The merchants Who thus no.
bly, fought back the wave of hard times
eople. There WAS a larg. humber of our
citizens who would have suffered for the
want Of tue actual ncc-sssrirs of life had il
not been fer the manly aud generous man
nrr in which the merchants Of Claiborne
parish contributed to the wants OF the peo-
pie.
Now that the merchants have played
well their part, 1t behooyes the people TO
renum.rate then, by simply paying what
is due them. Our merchant are to he long
and faverably remembered for such noble
acis-acts 10y which the naked have been
clothed and The hungry fed. Wetru-t that
no such stringent circumstances will ev-r
agau surround our people, but in case the,
do, We also trust they may be 50 fortunate
rs to find similar relief.

IL seems to MS that our merchants are
letting too much cotton pass through our
town for Miudrn and Shreveport. We See
cotton day after day from the northern
aud eastern portions Of Claiborne parish
passing through Homer to b. sold to The
merchants of Mimd-n or Shreveport Our
mercheats are certainly able to do better
than this. II they would buy this cotton
It would be but an Easy matter Ia sell all
the goods these farmers want to them. 1t
IL In business that naturally aud of right
belongs to Homer aud Homer merchants
should avail themselves Of the oppnrtu-
nlty To secure this trade. If the farm, Z
desires I" have the hauling of his cotton
70 Shreveport, buy il from him and then
hire him to hanl il 10 Shreveport for YOU.
II there be nothing made by you IN the
transaction, you will have added to the
business Importance Of your towns con-
slderatIon of no minor importance.
II our-mrTchants would exert them.
selves il seems 10 MS that Homer could
handle three. fourihs Of the cotton grown
in Clsiborne parish and orr town would
GO down on the commercial reports AS
bug town that handled fifteen to
eighteen thousand bales of cotton instead
Of seven or eight thousand, as heretofore
Any ono can see the beneficial effect of
such q state of things.
The business Importance of Homer
would increase in the same proportion.
Men the world over have a natural de
sire to trade at the largest towns, aud
towns that do the largest business. Then
why not have the business of Homer
swelled to the largest 6gurss-igures that
naturally belong to in Merchants, think
OF this and see ii yon are not acting con
trary to your own interest.
