The Public Road System.
[C5z-z=zs22se5)

[o5===s:a2se5
The public road system, rs 1t exists
in CalcasIsu parish, may be summed
up about as follows: The police jury
appoints an overseer; the oversesT
summons all the hands subject to road
duty, who belong to what he thinks
his section; on an average about one
fourth of those summoned, obey; the
reasons of the ahsentees are patent
some claim other roads, some are
claimed by other overseers and the
result is that the road is lily worked,
or not worked at all, and as sometimes
happens, the overseer isreported to the
authorities and fined for defects which
were not in his power to remedy; the
natural consequence being an onerous
duty which every one desires to shirk,
and a public road ,yslem which Is =
disgrace to the parish, and the Laugh
ing stock Of all who are not crippled
in travelling over them.
In some other portions Of the state
a better STATE Of affairs exist. The pc.
lice Jury selects in each wand certain
number Of citizens (say three who
are termed apportioners, and whose

Catarrh.-Without assuming to write
out a thesis of this universal ailment,
facts warrant our saying that it seems
to us there never was season when IL
was so prevalent as at the present.
The above is preliminary to the fol-
lowing, viz: That Messrs. Hood q Co.,
of Lowell, believe that the best way to
treat Catarrh, and the only way to get
permanent relief, is through the blood.
A constitutional disease requires a con-
stitutional remedy. Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla is a blood purifier and constitu-
tional medicine that can be relied upon,
and has cured numerous eases of Catarrh
i'm its various forms. We think this
claim a reasonable one and gladly give

How Watch Cases are Made.

In buying silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap of most cheap
silver cases is made of composition known
as albata, which is very poor substitute
for silver, as it turns black in short time.
The backs of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order to make the cap
thicker and get in as much as possible of
the cheap metal. Another important point
in asilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. Those of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which is
not a suitable metal for that purpose. In
brief period it warps, bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket. The
Keystone SilverWatch Cases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.

Something Wrong at the Capitol.

The Democratic shout of victory in
Ohio had scarcely died away before DIR.
Rutter of the Central Asylum resigned
the Superintendency of that lnstitu-
ton.
We apprehend no one in the State
will object to the resignation the Doc
tor who knows anything about the
running of the same since he got con-
troll of it. The Democratic party of the
State most seriously object, however, to
any plan of Rutter, or any other Re-
publican combination, to chose a sue
cessor through Foster majority of the
Board of Directors.
Bad rumOrs about the management of
the Central afioat, serious mismanage-
ment more than suspected, and most
trustworthy and efficient man should
fill the vacancy caused by DIR. Rutter's
resignation. No such man in our iudg-
ment can be appointed until after the
organization of the incoming Demo-
cratic Legislature and the Inauguration
of Governor Hoadly.
We confidently predict, that, upon
the consummation of these two events,
and the lodgment of the State Govern
ment safely in Democratic hands, the
public institutions of the State will be
most thoroughly renovated and placed
in the care and keeping of honest and
competent men; and this work we most
earnestly wish may be effectually done
by the incoming Democratic admins
tration. If the Central could be run by
BOYS, to the satisfaction of Gov. Fosters
Administration. for long time during
DIR. Rutter's junketing tour in Europe,
for no otherp purpose than his own pleas
ure, it certainly can be run to the salts
faction of the present outgoing Repub-
lican Administration, from the time DR.
Rutter's resignation takes effect until
Governor Hoadly is inaugurated.
Any reorganization of that institution
by the majority of the present Board
will be looked upon with very grave
suspicion, and we have no doubt such
attempt would soon come to grief.
The Democracy have excellent memo
ries, and will not readily forget the dis
reputable treatment of DR.. Firestone by
this same DR.. Rutter, Gov. Foster Il Co.
simply because he was a Democrat.
The Democracy of the State will nev
er tolerate any trick of DR.. Rutter to pu
his successor into this Grand Centra
Institution, in the person of some weak
kneed Democrat, having no experience
and unknown to merit, through Eos
ter majority Board, with deliberate
view to keep both merit and experienc

LAYS DOWN THE Law.
A colored man, named James A. Carter was nut
on trial before the Police Court to-day on the
charge or assaulting young man, named Stewart
Boss, by horse-whipping him on the Avenue yes
terday afternoon. The young man stated that
while standing at the corner OF 9th street and the
Avenue. yesterday afternoon, viewing the carnival
procession. the defendant was driving a coupe not
In the line OF the procession, but near where the
people were standing. The shafts of the vehicle
quickly and saw the team about to run over a
crowd OF ladies and children. He caught the horse
by the bride to stop it, when the defendant dashed
witness over the head and face with his whip
about forty times, and finally struck him on the
head with the butt of his whip. The young man
showed the court his Derby hat which had the top
smashed In. he stated that at this point a veil
was set up to pull the driver OF the box, when
Lieut.. Arnold put the driver under arrest.
Mr.. Samuel Irving stated that tho team was his
and he was In the Carriage at the time He stated
that the horse was only walking at the time, and
he thought the butt OF the whip was not used The
defendant made statement in which he said he
struck the young man three or four times, but not
until he cursed witness and threatened to pull him
on the box If he drove over him. He also stated
that he was pulled of his box by the young man
and crowd or other persons.
Judge Smell said that some people who ride in
carriages have the idea that they have the right
10 drive over pedestrians II they do this they are
liable 10 actions for assault and also to civil
damages. The court said he thought the young
man had right to temporarily restrain the team
by taking the horse by the bride to save himself
ana others from being run over Some allowance
should be made for the excitement on the Avenue
yesterday, but the defendant would have to pay
fine OF $40.
