st. Thomas.

Thursday at 3 p. m. the colored
people of Chicago were honored
by the dedication of St. Thomas
Episcopal Church, situated on
Dearborn street, near sThirtieth.
The structure is a very handsome
chapel, with a seating capacity OF
nearly 800. 1t is we'll built and
tastily finished. The colored COM
munlcants of the church, led by
their very efficient pastor, the Rev
James Thompson, have made great
efforts to secure a church, and
with good success. The generous
communicates of the white church,
es have been lavish in their gifts
and untiring in their labors in this
cause. BY these worthy people
the possession of this present
splendid edifce is made possible.
The dedicatory sermon was
preached by DR.. Crummell, of
W ashington, D. c.. The sermon
was a finished production and drew
words Of praise from every side.
The dedicatory services were pre-
sided over by Bishop McLaren,
who was assisted by large num-
Der of the city Episcopal clergy.
The music for the.occasion was fur
nshed by a quartette choir. A de-
tailed account of the church and its
work will be given next week.

Read and Be Wise.

Histories make men wise, wrote
Lord Bacon years ago, and the
truth of what he wrote has often
been verified. In these days when
political parties are changing their
front on all the important questions,
every American citizen who de-
slres to be well informed should
aCquaint himself with all the facts of
a political nature which are con-
nected with the several parties.
Within the next two years all
such information will be of service.
The country appears to be on the
very eve of complete revolution
in political sentiment, and every
citizen shonld prepare himself to
think and act intelligently. The
only book which contains about all
there is of importance on the sub
lect is C0oper's Amertcan Politics.
1t is book of 1858 pages, and it
is complete political library in a
most convenient form, arranged so
as to be a ready reference, COM
piled from official data, and
abounding with facts which every |
citizen should know. 1t is non
partisan, and contains within its
limits record of all the political
parties since the formation Of our |
government. 1t is published by
Charles Brodix, Lakeside build
ing, Chicago, and in arrangement,
finish and appearance would make
a valuable addition to any library.

A Presentation.

In these days OF conflict between
capital and labor, it is gratifying
to be able to catch from the drift
OF daily occurrences in this city.
one incident tending to show kind
ly feeling existing between en-
ployers and employed. The Incl
dent referred to was the presenta-
tion, last Monday evening, of a
handsome oil portrait of Louis the
Sixteenth, executed by a French
artist, to MIR. Warren F. Leland
proprietor of the Leland House
by the walters employed at that
popular caravansary. The place
was the ordinary of the hotel,
which was filled with the lady and
gentlemen guests Of the house and
the persons making the present.
Hon. Emery A. Storrs made the
speech in his usually eloquent man
ner, and Mr.. Leland responded
feelingly, with his hearty thanks.
Many OF the men have been in the
employ of the Lelands for a num-
Der of years and speak highly of
the uniform good treatment and
consideration always received from
them. The names OF the donors
were:

St. Landry democrat., 1882-12-30

Many young girls are unfit for active
life, and thousands of mothers drag ont
a miserable existence on account of a
peculiar female weakness which they
absolutely refuse to cure. They are
full OF aches and pains, are poor, weak
frail creatures, irregular each month
with pale faces, glazing eyes, shattered
nerves and almost worn out constitu-
tions. A powerful combination has
been prepared by the medical profess
sion, TOR the cure of these serions fe-
male complaints, and its action is pro-
nounced wonderful. 1t is known as

St. Landry democrat., 1882-12-30

Hon. e. T. Lewis name will be placed
in nomination at the Baton Rouge Con-
vention, for Congress. 1t is unnecessa-
Iy to speak Of him to the people of this
parish, among whom he was born and
raised. He has the ability, knowledge
and, qualifications to fit him for CON-
gresham, to represent this district. j;
and, though we have, at times of heated
party strife and internal dissensi0n,
differed from him and his political
friends, we most heartily support him
for the position he.now aspires to. Mr..
Lewis, has rendered valuable service to
the Democracy here, and without any
recognition or reward whatever, as will
be admitted by everyone acquainted
with his past career. Indeed, the COR
dial support he is receiving from all the
leading men of our. parish without ref
ference to past antagonisms, is fat
ering proof of the esteem in which he
is held here.
Hon. Henry i. Garland, whose name
has heretofore been prominently men.
toned for the place, and who received
the support of the st. Landry delega-
ton in the last convention, is one of
Mr.. Lewis most earnest supporters.
He has been spoken of in the most Hat
tering terms by the New Orleans Times
Democrat, Item and States, and vii
prove q formidable, and we believe,
a successful candidate for the nomina-
ton.

THE CONVENTION.

The Parish Democratic Convention
that assemblies to-day, is charged with
the important duty of selecting dele
gates to the Congressional Convention
at Baton Rouge to nominate candi-
date to succeed the lamented Heron.
1t will also elect an Executive Commit
tee to serve until the next Convention,
the present committee being .fatnctas
o0icio, by rule of party usage, as soon
as the convention meets and is organ
SEED.
There is a strong and universal feeling
here, that the district convention ought
to select the candidate from ST. Landry.
For many years back, the Democracy
of our parish has exercised com mand-
ing influence by its vote in the State
and Con gressional elections, butstrange
to say, we have never had proper rep
Jesentation accorded to us in our nom-
mating conventions. At the very last
election for Congress, Major Heron re-
ceived q larger majority here than any
one -of the twelve parishes of the dis
trict, though owing to the small vote
cast, our majority was less than usual.
1t seems to us that the fidelity of the
st. Landry Democrats and their oft-re-
.peated and valuable services to the
party of the district and State, ought to
secure from this time on, some ade-
.auate, recognition. Especially have we
the right to ask this from our fellow
democrats Of the district when it is
considered that we have never had a
place in the State government, except
that Of Secretary of State, twenty years
ago, and that we have had but one
congressman since the State was adj
united into the Union, and that 40 years
ago. We believe that il these consid-
4erations are pressed upon the Baton
.Ronge convention, in a conciliatory but
firm manner. we will stand most ex-
cellent ch ance,of securing the nomina-
ton.
In order, however, to avail ourselves
to the best adEangtage OF the onportu-
nifty presented, we must have .harmo-
nious convention, and delegation Sc
1ected solely with the view of .harmo-
nions, united and determined work to
secure the prize for st. Landry.
Let the delegates assembled to-day
conduct their. proceedings in that spirit,
and with that aim and we may reason
ably expect to secure the nomination.
