MIRAGE.
Ei,RhHd Goose.

E6bRaEad Goose.
Sad would the salt waves be,
And cold the singing sea.
And dark the CULTS that echo 10 the seven
stringed Tyre,
Ifthings were what they seem.
IN life had no fair dream, -,
No Mirage MADE to tip the dull Sea line with
fire.
But on the shores Of time
Hearing toe breakers chime,
Falling by night and day along our human
sand,
The poet sits and sees,
horne on the morning breeze,
The phantom islands noat aturlonS rom Tue
land.
Content to know them there,
Hung in the shining air,
He trims no foolish sail to win the hopeless
coast.
His vision Il enough
To feed his soul with love,
And he W no craps too much may even him
self be lost

n BAToN ROUGE, Nov. 26. The people
of this parish are astonisiied at the
statements made in the Times Demo
.crat concerning the meeting in the
Fourth Ward. The facts are simply
these, as can be clearly substantiated,
that, everything considered swollen
creeks, bad roads and weather, the larg-
est country meeting held in this parish
assembled in the Fourth Ward on Sat
surday last. The resolutions we're car
ried without a dissenting voice. Query :
II they were McEneryites, how could
this have happened y
Gen. Thomas and Col. Robertson an
nounced in their speeches that any
charges made by them they were ready
to snbstantiate. There was no attempt
made to answer the charges except III q
desultory way, but q good deal Of irrele-
want talk was indulged in, which, al
though distasteful to the audience. was
listened to with patience. If there were
more than a half dozen McEnery men
on the ground they concealed their SEN
timents, there being the utmost anti
administration unanimity, and Nichols
and Ogden were cheered frequently

SHREVEPORT, Nov. 26.-Tfe primary
election for delegates to the State and
Parisl, Conventions took place in this
city to day; also, mass meetings in the
otiier wards of the parish for the same
purpose. The voting was quite spirited,
and the McEnery men In this ward par
eieularly active, consolidating their en-
tire strength on five delegates, while the
anti-hIcEnery people had three tickets
in the field, which resulted in the defeat
of our majority vote by electing three
dcEnery men, one Ogden man and one
Moneilrt, man-W. H. Wise, for Ogden; !;
Dr. j. G. Egan, john 5. Young, A.. d.

was G83, out tof which tlehighest MeEn-
ery men received 800 votes. The 9th
4t.rs, following behind. leaving 1868 votes
majority for the anti-M emery people,
which, being divided between several
tickets, resulted IN our losing our major
Ity vote. a decided feeling had been
worked up by Hebrew population
being informed that during an epidemic
Ia New Orleans / Cen. Ogden had the
distribution Of charities subscribed for
the benefit OF sufferers, and that he re-
fused to their people there any aid from
the funds sent there by the charitable
world. This caused an almost nnani-
NOUS vote on their part for the McEn-
cry delegates; although the only repre-
sentative of their race on the ticket,
Capt. Simon Levy, Jr., was defeated
80 they have furnished the vote for the
McEnery people, and yet their race
leader here was defeated.
The sporting fraternity voted with
them, alleging that Gen. Ogden was OPP
posed to gambling and lotteries and III
favor of Sunday law, and that Mcifn-
cry was not.
The news from other wards is to the
effect that they will be solid against the
administration. Bad management with
in our ranks caused our votes rather q
majority for McEnery; this will give
Gen. Ogden 9 out OF IS delegates from
this parish.
The Jewish people being aroused here
at the last hour against Gen. Ogden Oh
the false charge of discriminating
against them in distributing public
charity, will be followed elsewhere Will

Natchitocles parish sends greeting to
the Democracy Of the state with nine
as,ti-ring votes. She has repudiated the
Iottery and its advocates and declared
for honest government and an untIam-
naeled executive. Let the world know
thst her sons refuse to barter their po-
fitical opinions. The mother of parish
.as was the first to revolt against radical
xyranny in 1874 aud will now lead the
van in movement to crush the odious
monopoly that has laid it's foul hand
ssnon our fair state. That hydra headed
monster Mahonism, that 30 lately raised
Sfs standard here, has been stamped ont
nv the spirit Of unity and harmony in
fRa Democratic ranks. The battle has
heen long and desperate, but the victory
ss complete and glorious. The parish
ennyention will be heard from next Sat
-rday. Enough is known of primaries

cy of Claibopnne parish in Convention
assembled, do hereby declare our con-
tinued allegiance and adherence to

decided majority OF 378 votes, by MI.
John X. Skipwith, the defeated McEn-.
cry candidate for delegate at large:
4 CLINTON, La, Nov. MIR. w. IL.
Pipes, Chairman Nichols Delegation !:
Dear Sir--Please take notice that we
intend to contest the seats OF your dele
CATION to the State Convention, upon
the grounds of fraud and Intimidation
and irregularity of the election. Very
respectfully,
5s5 j. TX. SKIPWITII,
Chairman. McEnery delegation.
There is no foundation whatever IN
fact for the vague and indefinite allega-
tion OF intimidation and fraud contain
ed in the notice. There never was a
fairer or more peaceable election held
in this parish, and We have cast about
in vain for single instance OF fraud or
intimidation.
The contest is not looked upon as Sc
rious, but considered a very unwise
move on the political chess board by the
friends Of the administration, showing
too plainly their little game of capturins
the Convention, and is calculated to do
Gov. McEnery more harm than good,
