The weekly Thibodaux sentinel and journal of the 8th Senatorial District. [volume] (Thibodaux, Lna. [i.e. La.]) 1875-1898, 1883-06-23

Editor Times :-Seeiug al article in your
paper last week from Arnold Parker, l was
impressed with the earnestness with which
he appeals to you to continue to enlighten
the world in regard to the means by which
he was 50 miraculously cured Of rheup,a
tism aud hip,joint lameness by using Ken
dall's SPAWN Cure. The article to which
he alludes by DR.. Bates, impressed me so
fayorably with the real merits of this re-
medy that I tried it also for several blem-
ishes on my. horses and found it the most
perfect cure I ever tried for spavihs and
other blemishes. as it completely removes
the enlargement in every instance, by con
tinuing its use for several days after the
lameness has subsidized. The perfect sue
cess I have always had with Kendall's Spa
vim Cure led me to use it on my own per-
son, and for all the family, with the very
best results as family lininent. While
several Of the cures made by it have been
almost miraculous, none have been more
satisfactory than several cures which 1
made with it of foot rot and also sore teats
as we'll as warts on teats of cows.
I consider it q sure cure for sore teats or
foot rot in either ows or sheep. With the
satisfaction this remedy has always given
in every instance, l cannot refrain asking
with my friend Parker that you continue
to make known to the world this the great
est discovery of the nineteenth century.
Yours Truly,
JAMES A. CAMPBELL,
Herkimer, N. Y, Sept. 10, 1881.
The above letter, with one published
last week, encourages us in our efforts to
make our paper n of the most valuable
Journals in the country and to all our pa
irons, and we o ask others of our read
ers who have been alike benefited by the
letter published n year ago from DR..
Bates, that they send us for publication,
statements which they may wish to make
for the benefit Of others.-Ed.

of::Lafourche, was unanimously cleo
ted Chairman aud w. 81. Goodale
OF St. Mary was elected, Secretary
of the Convention.
Tue Governor then presented to
the Convention a message, which
was read.
He said that the attention of the
Convention was called to,
First. The Inauguration Of q
plan to prevent the cutting of LIE
wees, and the use of them rs high
ways.
Second: Maintaining aud repair
ing of Levees.
Third. Improvement of naviga
ton.
The message was rep!ete with
facts and arguments bearing upon
those points.
A communication from the Board
of State Engineers was read, expla
nat0ry. of the work that should be
done.
The drainage Of more than 1900
600 square miles had to find it's
way into the Gulf below the mouth
of the Arkansas, either by the riv
! or, or over land.
Levees could be built sufficiently
strong to confine the water to the
bed of the stream, and force it into
the Gulf without damage to the ad
jacent lands.
The Levee system now existing
comprises 700 miles on the Mississ
ippi river, and on interior streams
3O5, miles making 1925 miles of LIE
wees.
The most important work to be
done was closing breaches between
the Arkansas'river and Vicksburgb,
which would require 1,11O,27O Gu
bic yards of new leyees.
These works would cost about
5000 10000 whilst the Levee taxes
are only about, annually, $780,
OOO,O
Much other useful and statisti
cal infOl nation was contained in
the communication.
Letters from Gen. Wright, Chief

for 1880 side and the heavyweight
championship, Mr.. Smith stated that il
was impossible for Slade to fight Paddy
Ryan at present, ~ the Maori was en-.
gagged TO travel with the sullivan CON-
bination for the next two months, but
that after the tour was completed, he
(Smith) would match S,ade to fight
any man in the world. Sullivan, when
questioned in regard to Paddy Ryan's
despatch to Richard X. Fox, In which
the sx-champion authorized Richard
X. Fox to back him against either
Slade or Sullivan, said that he would
never fight with bare knuckles again,
but would fight Ryan or any other man
In the world with gloves, for 5000 or
SIC, 600 a side, and that he would bet
the Police Gazette folks all the money
they wanted to invest that he could
whip Ryan in four rounds.
A reporter called on Richard X. Fox,
at the Police Gazette Office, yesterday.
Mr.. Fox said, AL. Smith and John l..
Sullivan boast.d at Cincinnati that
Slade could whip Paddy Ryan, and
that they would back him to do it. At
first l supposed it was only bluff, hut
when read the statements of the Wes
tern papers telegraphed to Ryan at
Ogden, Utah. informing him of the fact,
agreeing to back him for any amount.
In reply received despatch from
Ryan, in which he stated he would
fight either Slade or Sullivan, the lat

that accepted his offer to back Slade,

he can knock Ryan out II four rounds.
The champion fails TO specify by what
rules. Ifhe means London prize ring

fought him nine rounds at Mississippi
