Chambers took us out riding. with
his wife and daughters. some five
or six miles into the country
which was IL good treat, as riding
over the hills brought to mind the
memory OF early days anon. the
hills OF the West.
Baton HOn@e is improving great
~ III appearance. The numerous
old buildings that were to he
seen on every square, Il few years
ago, have been repaired, new
roofs put on, and the skill of the
painter applied thereto.
The State House has been
much improved in appearance,
and although not finished has
mauy beautiful rooms completed.
The Representatives and Sena.
tors Hall are very handsome and
convenient roOmS well suited for
the purposes to which they are
dedicated. The Governors office
and parlors are handsomely fitted
up, large and capacions. The,
Offices of the Treasurer, the Audi

the State Engineer and She Sccre

aud c0mmolions. The State
House and grounds, when proper

Northern Manufacturers have
purchased the machinery and ma
terial OF the cotton mandatory
in the building. This is now sepa
rated from the building in which
the convictS are confined.
The spinning has just begun.
About 70 women arc employed
therein. The Manager says that
he WAS told, before coming South,
that he couid not get women 10
work. in the manutactory, and
that Southern women could not
learn how to handle the spiuGles
and the looms. He finds plenty
OF hands and finds that they learn
as quickly as Northern women,
aud anticipates no trouble in Sc
curing aud learlslng all the labor
that he may find employment for
in Baton Rouge.
No'ooms have yet been put to
work, but they will soon be placed
in position.
The Engine that runs all the
machinery and spindleS is one OF
the COrlisS manufacture and it is
worth a trip to Baton Rouge to
see it work. Running with 1GO

mittees to the men more accustomed to com.

any one thing has been settled by precedent
as absolutely necessary to the transaction of
any business fairly, it is that the vote on ell
important questions should be by counties,
because there being list of admission, it

Yet the temporary chairman declined, uni

ruled as out of order every call for vote by
counties, aud finally indicted the permanent
chairman into office on minority vote, and
IN spite of every demand of tho tellers for
division. The permanent Chairman proceed

manner, ruling every vote in Hoge's favor
and denying all appeal. division or vote by
