COINCIDENCE.

We are panied to learn of the death Of our
friend c. Mccullough, of Ouachita parish,
La, on the 10th Of January. AS we get
it, lie went in the town of NJ onroe on bust
ness with one L. D. McLain, and it appears
that some misunderstanding got UP be-
shot him through the head, he died instant
~: Mccullough was born in the State of
Alabama, January 2Sth, 1926, age So years,
months. Is days: By request of his wife
and relatives, will give short sketch of
his past life. After coming to manhood he
removed to Caldwell parish. La, about the
year 1850. Remained there two years, when
he settled in Jackson parish, La. near the
little village Bonner, where the writer OF
this lived near him eighteen years, and
know whereof I speak. He was an oblig-
ing neighbor and friend, and strictly hon
est in his business; a kind and affectionate
husband, indulgent father. He leaves Il wife
and five children to mourn his loss. The
funeral service took place at his late resi-
dence in Cotton Port, January nth, by G.
II. Mason.
We tender our sincere Coincidence to the
bereaved wife and children. May the good
Lord give them grace to bear them up i'll
this bereavement and may those Affections
work for their exceeding glory. J. W. c.

At noon yesterday tho river guage
marked IS feet 8 inches, being rise
Of only one inch in the "a hours pre-
ccding, or q rise of Is inches during
The seven days before. We notice no
Mississippi overflow water in the
Ouachita; but it has reached the swamp
in rear of town and is troubling the
small farmers on Bristlc Ridge, 9 miles
southeast of here. An early decline,
barring rains, may be looked for.
The Signal Service report ofTuesday,
sent to Mr.. w. G. Kennedy, showed q
fall in the Mississippi all the way from
st. Louis to Nicksburg. At the latter
place a rise Of one inch was reported,
the guagc marking As feet one inch.
The Tennessee, Ohio, Cumberland and
Arkansas rivers arc all falling, with
the upper Missouri reported rising on
Wednesday.
The overflow in tho swamp cast of
Monroe is steadily rising. but, with
fair weather, we look for decline
within q few days. Thc town of Ray
vile is largely under water, but the
flood is not so disastrous as that of last
year.

output of NOllman's mill, which is
kept running daily in Cottopport saw-

City Steam mill, the river is floating
down quantity, a late arrival being

A trip hence to Delta is not just now

is: The hand car leaves Monroe at

Fourche swamp, distant miles.
There a transfer is made to skiffs, and
over the waters muddy, the passenger
is rowed miles to Crew Lake, where
he again mounts the open hand car,
his legs hanging down near the water,
aud he rolls along S miles to Rayville.
At that point, he doubles down in Il

arrives at Tallulah. Here he is thrown

ed, is progressing with the prospect Of
an early completion-a piece of graft

are being accumulated rapidly for the

A fatal accident occurred on Section
81 Of the ", S. & p. railroad Saturday
last. The facts, as given by the Wen

Hutchhins we will add that this is the
first accident that has occurred on his

Don CamerOn's Mithered Wife il.

Washington special: saw Mrs. Don
Cameron st Barnum's circus the other
day. She was there with two or three
children. She has lost the brightness
and the fresh color of 3 once handsome
face. She was plainly dressed, and look
ed comfortable In the absence Of her
husband. A short time after her arriv
al the tive sons of Mr.. Blaine came in.
Their seats. by accident, were by
the side of Mrs. Cameron. The sight
of his wife IN the neighborhood even
of young man Of his own age would
have given the senator fit. The poor
lady is paying dearly for making an
ambitious marriage. She was the
daughter of Judge Sherman, of Cleve-
land, and poor. She was brought out
here at the house of her rich uncle,
John Sherman, who thought it good
plan to unite the families of Cameron
and Sherman, with 81 view TO the polit-
ical advantages that would Ie-
suit therefrom. The young lady was
married to one who is nearly thirty
years her senior, a rude, coarse man
with no genial traits, no capacity for IN
teIectual amusement or social enjoy
ment. Joined to this, the senator soon
developed q savage jealousy that would
have driven any ordinary woman to
revolt and an open scandal. Never
has Mrs. Cameron given her husband
the slightest reason for his insanity.
She is popular, well liked by all
and her suGerings from her
uncongenial marriage are town
talk. One winter the senator
did not permit her to go out at all, nor
to receive any one. Whenever they
have gore out since the wife has been
made to suffer from some scene. The
moment the surly senator has seen any
too much attention being paid 10 his
wife that would be his signal to take
her and march her out of the house
without excuse or apology to any one
The senator's only relaxation is card
playing. He can be kept good-natured
for time, if there are not too many
around, with the game Of casino
With men he is fond of playing poker
He is q bad player, however, and al
most always loses. The family is of
for Europe this week. 1t is to bt
hoped the trip will sweeten the SOU
humor Of the undiplomatic son of the
diplomatic Simon Cameron.

L Green COuntryman.

Years ago, into s. wholesale grocery
in Boston walked q tall, muscular lock-
ing, raw-b0ned man, evidently fresh
conner from some back town in Maine or
New Hampshire. Accosting the first
person he met. who happened to be
the merchant himself, he asked.
"You don't want to hire q man IN
your store, DO you?"
"Do!" said the man, f'I rather guess I
can turn my hand to almost anything
What do you want done?'
"Well, if was to hire q man, it
would be one that could lift well--a
strong. wiry fellow; one fer Instance,
that could shoulder q sack of coffee
like. that yonder and carry it across the
store and lay it down"
"There, now captain" said the coun-
tryman, "that's just me. What will you
give q man that will suit your"
81 tell you," said the merchant, ''iI
you will. shoulder that sack of coffee,
and carry it across the store twice and
never lay it down, I will hire you for q
year at 81 90 per month"
''Done," said the stranger; and by
this time every clerk in the store had
gathered around and were ready to ioir
N the laugh against the man, who walk.
ing to the sack threw it across his shoul.
der with a perfect ease, as it was not
extremely heavy, and walked with il
twice across the S; ore, went quietly to a
large hook fastened In the wall, and
hanging the sack upon it, turned to the
merchant and said:
"There, now, in may hang there until
doomsday; | shan't lay it down. What
shall | go about, mister? Just give me
plenty to do and $100 month and it's
all right"
The clerks broke into laugh, but it
was cut of the other side Of their
mouths; and the merchant, discounted,
yet satisfied, kept to his agreement, and
today the green countryman is the
senior partner in the FIRM and worth
Ealf a million dollars.

She Found Washington's RegimentaIs.
From the Hartford Post

Rebeccs Hamilton, colo~ed, died in
New York on Sunday evening last. Had
she lived until December next it is
claimed that she would have been 115
years ofage, having been born in the
town of Lyme, Conn, in the year 1868.
When she was little girl her folks re-
moved to lebanon, Conn, and she re-
membered having there seen General
Washington pass through the town at
the head of his troops, and often told
wildly of how he went prancing by on
his pony" as she called it. Some
time after that General Wa shington's
clothes were stolen and reward was
offered for their recovery. The little
girl, while passing the woods not far
from home. espied something red in
the hollow stump of tree. Being
afraid of it she ran home and told her
mother, who upon going to the spot
pulled out with stick the missing
regimentals. Her father took them TO
General Washington, who wss then at
Norwich, and received the reward.
