The market day, held last Saturday,
was one of the best patronized of any
yet held. Between twenty-five and
thirty head of horses were disposed of,
together with large lot of cattle, forty
eight sheep, ands considerable other
property, all of which brought good fig
ures. No action was taken in regard to
auctioneers, the committee having de-
cided to wait until after the conclusion
Of the town meeting, on Tuesday.

The thirtieth wedding anniversary of
Mr.. and Mrs. F. B. Phelps was quite
pleasantly celebrated at the Phelps
residence, Friday evening. The affair
was entirely impromptu, arranged by
the children as a surprise, and was a
decided success. When the descent
was made it was found that houseful,
of relatives and friends had assembled
to wish the respected couple joy for the
present and added happiness for the
future, and to assist personally in the
first by an evening of jollity and good
cheer, enjoyed equally by ALL

SPECIAL LOCAL NOTICES.
The Fairlamb Cream Can.


That is what we desire to say few
words about. There having been de-
sire expressed among our patrons to
own their cans instead of renting them
as formerly, we have decided to sell the
cans to all who wish them this year.
Our charge for them will be what they
cost us in Chicago, we pas ing for
freight and packing which is about
$1,000 per 100. We make this liberal
offer because we intend our patrons
shall have the best cream raising can
ever made. We need say bnt few
words regarding the can. it has stood
every test, and stands at the head to-day
1t will raise more cream from a given
amount Of milk than any can in exist
ance, and the increase in production
alone, will pay for the can the first sea
son. Send in your orders as rapidly as
possible SO we may know how many
cans to order, and state whether you
want full size OF u gallons or ! size 5
gallons. We recommend full size.
Yours truly,

In the Capitolian, Aduocate of
the 18th, we have noticed an ar
ticle headed ITO the Vermilion
Bay" 1t suggest and advocates
the connecting Abbeville and the
Vermilion country with Baton
Rouge a distance Of only 70 miles
the nearest point on the Mississip-
pi-as the Capitolian says Yer
million would thereby have an
easier and much more expeditions
debouche for its manifold pro-
duces which will no doubt increase
in variety and every respect and
the western such as -four, bacon, &c.
will have reached the town of Alb.
beville before the craft that bore
them to Baton Rouge shall have
reached New Orleans. 1t would
take but Is miles Of track to link
Abbeville with the Louisiana
Central at Vermilionville and ten
mile more would open the fish and
oyster trade Of that country,
which would be immense with a
proper outlet. a committee will
most probably be appointed Of
willing and energetic citizens of
the City Of Baton Rouge to visit
Vermilionville and Abbeville,
with the view of organizing to
complete this project which would
be profitable to all interested.
We do hope that the plan will re-
ceive due encouragement from our
people it is certainly worth their
serious consideration.

FRANCIS T. NICHOLS.

April 1884 is fast approaching
and then the voice Of the people
will be heard as to who will be
the ne1: Governor Of Louisiana.
Complaints are many from all
sides concerning the present con,
dition OF the couNtry and the cry
is throughout the whole State for
a man with a strong arm and a
stout heart, whose love Of country
will rise above all personal con-
sideratiop, whose patriotism will
ignore all organizations within the
strong and sufficient organization
Of the party, a man who will es-
chew anything like sectarianism,
and work untiringly towards res
toring Louisiana to her pristine
wealth and glory and have in view
nought but the public welfare, re.
gardless Of all other consideration
whose motto once in the chair will
be "salus populi suprema lex"
OF all the names suggested we
must give u unqualified prefer.
ence to that of F. r. Nichols ; in
all the positions Of life, in all the
responsible and trying duties he
has been called upon to perform.
he has shown himself worthy and
we'll qualified, has been tried in the
field in the councils Of the people,
in the executive chair and never
has he been found wanting in the
bold and fearless discharge Of
honest duty. He has been tried,
and can safely be tried again and
we sincerely hope that he will not
be deaf to the wishes and wants
Of the people.

TO THE VERMILION Bay!

The construction Of the Lou
isiana Central railway in the near
future, between Baton Rouge and
Vermilionville, a distance of only
So miles, will lay open to enter
prise one of the finest fields in the
South, by a simple extension of
the line to cover a distance of not
over IS miles through the pros
porous town of Abbeville, to a
point on the beautiful Vermilion
bayou, made accessible to the fish
ermen whose crafts would soon,
in hundreds, carry on a remunera-
tive trade in oysters and the finest
Of salt water FISH,. with which a.
bound the Vermilion, Cote Blan-
che and other neighboring bays,
comparatively untouched as yet,
owing to their present remoteness
from market.
Fifteen miles Of track will link
Abbeville with the Louisiana Cen
trail at Vermi',onville ; ten miles
more will strike near enough to
the Vermilion Bay to open the
oyster and fish trade referred to.
Just think Of it. In three hours
fish and oysters, fresh from the
sea, could be hauled over the sew
e~nty-seven miles Of railroad to
Baton Rouge. In four hours more
to Vicksburg /; and in twelve moro
