No Negotiations with the Enemy.

Before this time next year we shall
be in the heat of Presidential contest.
Tie Republicans will use their best en-
deavors in the interim to distract and
divide the Democratic party and to
strengthen themselves in this State by
retaining or capturing patronage.
Their object is to carry New York III
1891, without which the election OF
their President is hopeless.
Every Republican paper reioices over
the factional action of the Democratic
State Committee. The Roosevelt reso-
luton was in the direct interest of the
Republican party.
Following this act of folly come ru-
mors of negotiations between the County
Democracy and the Republicans to run
combination local ticket this year,
under the fraudulent name of .tciti-
zens'" ticket, in order to ''beat Tam
many"
ANY Democratic organization which
trades and bargains with the Republic
ans in the coming election will be strik-
ing a direct blow at the success of the
Democratic party, and will be working
for the continuation of the Republicans
in power
With united Democratic party in the
State representing all Democratic or
ganizations victory is assured. With a
Democratic party in this city united on
| candidates, or even with three tickets
| in the field, all tao local offices will be
filed by Democrats.
No bargain can be made by any DEM
ocratic faction with the Republicans
without giving the latter the lions share
of the spoils' and thus strengthening
them for the Presidential fight of next
! year.-N Y. ltOrld

In the investigation at New York into

THE REPUBLICANS MUST 60

AN ACROSTIc.
Too long the Nation SITS IN Judgment dumb,
Holding with callous hand the unequal scales;
Each wind stfrS scandals, and the seasons
come
Rotten with shameless bargainings and sales.
Enthralled, the workers murmur and rebel
Pride dies unshriyen in raupered soul
Useless their toll beneath the fatal spe /;
Ballots for bread! while railroads RUE the
poll.
Like carrion, goryed on flesh yet quick and
warm,
In surfeit fearless, and in greed grown bold,
Combined monopoiists mete out Reform,
And buy light Judges at their weight in gold.
No tax on wealth that labor docs not pay:
Proto ction fosters wcakne IS, robs the strong;
And lands that were the peoples bear to-day
Rich harvest to the workers of their wrong.
The Navy fingers in its dotage-Foes
Yield scornful tribute of :. assisted hordes;
Men yet unwedned; suspect" kind that
grows
Under the shelter of House Of lords.
Shall honest government give way for fraud
Till Fraud Triumphant, putting shame to
route,
Gives us Caesar for our empire bcoad?
gf=will the people turn the rascals out?

The Customs Collector at Philadelphia
has apprised shipmasters that France has
declared the Gulf of Tonquin under sur.
veillanee, and that any attempt to land
arms Or Munitions at Anaii would be
treated as blockade running, the vessels
confiscated and the crews treated as pris-
oners of war. There are signs that media
tion of England will eventually be invoked
in the Franco-C Chinese imbroglio, but no ap-
peal for American mediation is deemed
probable. The Chinese army is concen-
trated ut Pekin and only awaits news of
the arrival of French retnfureer,ehts at

The most valuable bristlcs used in
brush-making are white, and the breed
of hogs that produces them is every
year growing scarcer. The best bristles
come from Kamtschatka; the next
in grade from Russia and Germany.
They sometimes reach a length of near
ly ten inches, and cost as high as $3.50
a pound. Nothing yet in use wholly
takes the place of bristles.

The watermelon looms up with al
most kingly pride. The very prevalent
idea that 1t is an unwholesome fruit has
been dissipated. Physicians not only
eat it freely, but prescribe it to their
patients. Eaten freely, it is an almost
certain cure for dysentery and diarrhea.
Its effects upon the kidneys arc whole
some, and as an allayer of thirst it is
better than ice water.--Philddeloh

st. Tammany parish is located
twenty-five miles north of New Or

IMMIGRANTS,
with small amount of capital and
a fair supply of industry and perse-
verance, cannot possibly do better
than locate in our parish. The eli
mate is as fine as any in the world.
The winters are generally mild, and
snow rarely falls. Spring opens
early in February, with blossom
Oh the peach and ounce trees, and
vegetation comes rapidly forward.
The heat of summer is moderate,
and the unfailing breezes of the
evening refresh man and beast after
the labors of the day.
THE SOIL
is very productive, and admirably
adapted for raising sugar cane, cot
ton, oats, corn. rice, peanuts, etc.
The vine is indigenous, and yearly
bears large harvests of delicious
fruit. Oranges. pears, peach, plums,
ounces, figs and pecans thrive well

WATER POWER.
There is an abundance, of water

the attention of manufacturers. We |
have no doubt a small factory, such |
as already abound in Alabama and

would prove a paying investment.
FIRE CLAY
is found in abundance, as well as
CLAWS suitable for pottery ware of
