Houston is well laid out, is she? We will
see who Is laid out next" and he began blow

markedly cold and distant toward her.

The MEN WHO SUCCEED.-The
great difference among men of all
callings, is energy of character or
the want of it. Given the same
amount of learning and integrity,
and the same opportunities, and en-
ergy will make one man conquerer.
The want of it will see the other q
failure. Dead-beats are all men with
ont force. They had as good chance
as any of their companions. Others
went ahead and carried off the prizes,
while they were lying by the way
side dispirited and respondent. It
takes nerve, vim, perseverance,, pa
tient continuance in well-doing, to
win great prize. And the young
man who goes into business without
this pluck and force is not apt to
be successful.

Two Sides.

Poets have sung the delights of
the farmers life in strains so enehant.
ing that one might wonder why all
the world has not forsaken every
other pursuit and taken itself to the
tilling of the soil. But the farmer
himself in the unshaded cotton field
or plodding in the clayey furrow at
the tail of his pillow, with free
holders right sticking to each boot,
or bending with aching back be-
tween the corn-rows, or breasting the
winter storms in the performance of
imperative duties, looks at his life
from different point of view. To
him this life appears as full of toll
and care and evil chances as that of
any other toiler. And true it is the
life of an ordinary farmer is hard,
with too little to soften it-too much
of work. too little of play. But as
true as what the poet sang so long
ago, "Thrice happy are the husband
men if they could but see their
blessings" for they have indepen.
dence more than any others who by
the sweat of their brow earn their
own bread, and the pure air of
heaven to breathe, and the blessed
privilege of daily communion with
nature.

A great deal of time would be
saved in Court trials, if the jury law
was amended doing away with
unnecessary disqualifications. Any
man with sound sense is qualified for
a juror. He may form an opinion on
newspaper statesments or hearsay
But that is not evidence, and he
should not be disqualified. He can.
not reasonably form an opinion as to
guilt or innocence of the accused,
until he hears the evidence. And
on the evidence adduced he must
base his decision. No matter what
q mans opinion is before trial if he
is honest, that opinion will be based
alone on the evidence; and it cannot
be formed until he hears the eyi.

The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1882-05-04

Underlying all formulated law,
whether of judicial precedents or
written statutes, there is a system OF
minor laws which have their author.
ity and sanction only in the forum
of conscience. Courts of equity dc
not enforce them. Governments dc
not punish their infraction. Their
observance or disregard is left by
society altogether to the free will OF
the individual. Yet human happi.
ness depends to great degree upon
obedience to them.
The moral nature which is sym
metrically constituted recognizes the
binding force of duty as matter OF
intrinsic obligation. 1t does not
ask merely what the law of the State
prohibits or commands. It feels that
there are cases which no legislation
can be made to reach; that there is
many a bitter wrong for which no
remedy can be devised; that the
heart of a fellow-man may be torn
and tortured until he is driven to
desperation without any physical
assault or injury to bring the act
within the purview of the criminal
code. Scorn, neglect, GOODNESS, the
privation of sympathy and kindly
consideration are fearful weapons
against q sensitive spirit; yet how
often and how cruelty are their
wounds inflicted.
The State gives protection to the
person and property only of the cit
izen. It guards his good name as
one of his possessions, and as such
solely. Beyond this it does not 90.
It looks alone at the outward, the
tangible, the explicit and substan-
tial. 1t does not attempt to regu-
ulate or enforce those amenities of
social intercourse which are life's
sweetest charm. It does not compel
courtesy and politeness, nor punish
rudeness, sights and incivility. The
whole, infnited domain the feelings,
all that pertains to the heart, ont of
which are the issues oflife, it leaves
unguarded from intrusion. It does
not protect the sensibilities, suscep-
tible as they are of the most exquis-
ite suffering. Nor should it do SO.
These matters belong to the province
Of morals, and conscience is their
only censor.

ANOTHER COLoNY.-Gen. Long.
street, of Georgia, is actively engag.
ed in negotiations for the introduc.
ton Of immigrants into the North
ern part of that State. Through his
agency, colony of Swiss, Holland
ers and Germans numbering forty
five heads of families, has been es-
tablished. He has negotiated the
purchase for them of $500 acres of
land. These lands were purchased
at an average of S4.75 per acre, and
the money paid on delivery of the
title deeds.
Thus it is, that Gen. Longstreet is
devoting his time, talents and money
to the material interests of his State,
which is of far more Importance
in all respects than the howlings of
a thousand political demagogues.
