mands the careful scrutiny of every

1t will he only just however to
allow the accused parties time to
reply to the accusations, and we
would calmly suggest that tho prop
er way to reply to said charges is
not by calling the members of the
committee liars and villains.
The charges are explicit, made
by proper authority and must be
met and disproved BY facts, not 9th
erwise.
In the meantime admitting all
the payments to have been lust,
was it not Il scise Legislature that
gave s2G,G412 81 to collect a less
amount Of Delinquent taxes?
If the members of the Legislature
Of 1880 passed an act to authorize
such payments, then they had bet
ter retire to private life.
The report Of the committee is
candid, plain, and explicit. The
charges are made in such language.
that, if wrong, their error can be
shown.
Let the accused have ali opportu
nifty to refute and disprove them by
plain and explicit facts.
If the acts Of the Board are iusti
fed by law, let the law be pro
duced. Nothing else will answer.

1t is believed that a fine result
will be had by this entertainment.
We are also desired to request

The Police Jury of the Parish

son, jackson street, Thibodaux, Monday May
IA, 1883 at Z o'clock u. n. Miss Elvie Ann
VOrhis, after . protraoted lllness.
The deceased was a native of
this Parish and for many years a
resident of Thibodaux.
Her life is q record of w0manly
virtues that leaves only pleasant
memories to her relatives and
friends.
Calmly and p~eaceably' her spirit
has passed away to its eternal
home.
For many years the deceased was
a member Of the Presbyterian
Church in this town, and her life
has been a living exemplification
of the Christian Faith in which she
placed her hopes Of everlasting
Life. On Tuesday her remains
were placed at rest in st. Johns
Cemetery, and as the sun descend
ed calmly into the Western horizon
all that was mortal of the departed
sister and friend was hidden forev
er from the sight of man.

Our SCHOOLS.

r.
Justillan recommends to all pa
rents the timely education of their
children ; advising them to train
them up in learning, good manners
and virtuous exercises; since we
commonly retain those things in
age which We entertained in youth.
On Canal street, within q few
steps of the Guion Academy, of
which / wrote last week, is . mod
est little house, shut in by the sur
rounding trees, which presents .
perfect picture of quiet comfort.
Acting upon Justilian's advice, it
is here that many of the Catholic
citizens of Thibodaux send their
young children, for the
ST. vALERY SCHOOL
is a school they all know and love,
"a school where the little folks are
Strained up in learning, good man
ners, and virtu0us exercises" The
object Of this primary school is to
prepare children for their first com
munion and for the higher schools.
1t has been in successful operation,
under the management of the pres
ent teachers, Miss Odille Naquin
and Miss Emelina Naqnin, for over
fifteen years, having done incalcu
liable good during this time.
There are at present thirty schol
ars in attendance, half Of whom
are boys and half girls, who are
taught French and English, while
no effort is spared to teach them
true .politeness. The first class is
composed of Josephine Dantin,
Berthe Folse, Emily Guillot and
Joseph Belteau, who are ali dill
gent and quiet scholars.

Among the many improve
ments that have lately been made
in Thibodaux that Of the entire re
novation and repair of the Metho
dist Church on jackson street,
stands conspicuous. For several
years it has had the appearance of
decay so plainly marked upon it
that its falling into ruins seemed
to be its destiny in a short time.
The Rev. Mr.. p. Calvin, the Min
lister in charge, has, however, in a
few months, and in a very quiet
manner, SO wonderfully changed it's
appearance, that'not only do the
members of that church, but the
citizens of Thibodaux owe their
thanks to this gentleman for the
handsome improvements, his ener
gy and personal labor has effected.

I'm an article in relation to the
decision of the Supreme Court of
this state, refusing to exempt pro-
perry donated by MI. Tulane to the
city Of New Orleans for education
al purposes the Uerrile South says .
While we are, opposed to every species of le
gal su0terfuge by which private or corporate
Interests may escape their due share Of the
puDllc burden. we can see NO impolicy in ex
emptlng property of which the whole revenue
70 secured to the support Of an institution of
learning beyond the slightest risk of diversion
to less sacred uses.
Does the Iberverville South
''see no improperly" in exempting
property in the city Of New Orleans
from taxation which loss of taxes
must be made up by the country
tax payer whilst the country will
derive no benefit from exemption Z
If Mr.. Tulane will donate fifty
thousand dollars worth Of property
to the Parish of Lafourche for
school purposes, the Parish Of La
fourche will pay all taxes on said
property, for all time to come, and
b thankful for the opportunity.
