PERSONAL MENTION.

Miss Loula Walters, who has beeu
spending some time with Miss Mamie
Blackshear, in prairie Plaisance, reached
town yesterday.
DR.. Fred. J. Mayer, who is at present
located at Scott Station, was In town
during the week. Fred is an lntelll-
gent, worthy young man, and we Wish
him much success in the profession OF
his choice.
Mr.. Edmund Quirk. and wife, OF Tar
land station, were visitors to our town
last week. Mr.. Drew Boudreaux, the
gentlemanly telegraph operator OF that
place. was also visitor. They lett for
home BY Sunday evenings train.
Miss Mollie Stokes, of Bellevue. mas
been spending sometime in town. AS
she returned home the first OF the week,
we expect that some OF the boys who
we're about to leave on account OF hel
absence, have unpacked their baggage

the final decision in England, palsied be
the Irish tongue that ever denounces
any, even the reddest form of resistance
to England. This statement OF Hart
ington is declaration Of war. Eng
land has granted home rule to over
thirty colonies and provinces, and it
she refuses it to Ireland, the Irish
would be justified in laying every Eng
lish city to ashes. Redpath's weekly is
the true spirit of life as it were that is
making the power and force of Dyna-
mite felt, and will continue until
England looses her murderous grasp on
the Irish. So, Mr.. Terrence Mcclure"
of the Parish of St. Landry, vent your
spite to your hearts content. Dyna-
mite is civilizer, and the only hope
for Ireland. 1t is being used and will
continue to be used while there is a
man left to apply it, all the same. To
you, and all puritans, whether you like
It or not, keep on with your puritanical
| lore. Its just to our liking. We wilA
/ try to greet you every time from aDyn--'
amite standpoint. We have some good
things laid back that will just fit puril-
tan ranters and followers OF Cromwell.

Lecture.

Orr Methodist people are making
annie preparations for protracted
meeting to commence here next wed
nesday atsP. NJ. Rev. Mr.. Black OF
Natehez, Miss, the theologian, scholar
and orator, will deliver his celebrated
lecture on "Glimpses of Glory" seats
free, and the public cordially invited to
attend, and all denominations OF Chrls-
tians are invited by the pastor, Rev.
Mr.. Hough, to cooperate in the meet
ing. Mr.. Black will remain several days.
The Nachez Democrat, pays this glow
mo tr;bute to Mr.. Blacks lecture:
aThe lecture of Rev. w. c. Black, on
Tuesday evening last, was an intellect
nal treat to the large audience when
listened to it. Whilst the subject was
a Scientific one and the lecture treated
in q scientific manner, the address was
eminently a popular one. AM, one VINO
can look up at the starry skies and
U whosa mind can comprehend the idea
~ mAs snace. could easily have under
stood every portion OF the lecture. The
raIa tions Of all parts of the heavenly
craation to each other were closely, but
most eloauently described, and there
we're few in the audience even OF those
who were familiar with his subject, as
trnnomy, who did not realize that the
lecturer had indeed given them
aGiimses of Glory" which are toarare.y
contemplated. As a popular sclentlfic
lecture alone Mr.. Blacks discourse Is
worthy Of repetition in every commune
| ty in the State" .ee
aBnt not alone for his scientific infor-
nation. but for its philosophical de-
auctions was this able and eloquent
/ effort Of the distinguished lecturer inter-
esting. reasoning from effect to cause
he logically deduced a personal thelsm
a. onposed to the theories Of the athe-
ists or the agnostics. Rarely has i
/ been that we have heard more earnest,
ness combined with a more forcibly and u,
we'll sustained train OF reasoning, To
i those who have not the opportunity OF
4 hearing this fine address we can only
sav they missed rich and instructive
4 lecture: II MI. Black repeats it here OF
elsewhere we would say to our readers
that both in science, and phlloso,-
nhy they will by attending, hear such
lint is deeply entertaining which viii
interest the simplest intellect as we'll az
/ the most intelligent mind"

FARM LIFE.
BY AGRICOLA

We would quickly lay our "auilP' away
To go out on farm,
If to us s'yes" girl would say
And hang on to our arm.
The Cochin chickens we could raise,
Would bring the highest price,
And all the country give us praise
For growing crops of rice.
We'd rise up early in the morn
Straight to the field then go;-
I'd run the plow, she'd drop the corn
And play the live scarecroW.
And when the harvest had begun,
'Twould simply "be SIM"
To see the contemplating fun
With lively lick begin.
All. what winter we would spend,
When all this work was over:
With goobbers, taters, without end,
We then would 'liye in clover"
Orr Iabors here would shortly end,
And near Courtableau's water
The balance OF our life we'd spend
'Mongst Washington's fai01daughters:

Picnic.

On Saturday of last week it was our
pleasure to be among the number OF
gay young people who answered to the
invitation extended by Misses Mamie
Rlackshear and Loula Walters to at
ten picnic given at Woodwork
Springs, Ave miles from this place and
near the town of Washington. From
the fact that an opportunity is seldom
presented wherein we may absent our
selves from duty's post, we were some
time in advance of many who put IN an
appearance, and were consequently
well enough acquainted when the Ia
dies arrived to act as guide to the fern
and wild flower district. The gay ad-
dition from Washington's handsome
Young men and pretty women served
to make the whole pleasing success
We had jolly time swinging, drink
ing spring water and promenading I'M
til dinner was announced, where spark
ling wit and humor ruled the hour
IA Mrs. Patton Blackshear, and Misses b
and w. superintendent at the table, we
Of course felt staunchly prepared for
participation in games OF croque1

coaxing to make us go to the next one
