An Autumn Pecan.

Now dawns the era of pumpkin pies,
overcoats and coal bills. The season is
upon us when the chronic buns and
dry goods box loafers sigh and long for
summer days gone by, as the chilly fail
winds whistle thro' their ragged gar
ments and toy with the flags of truce
protruding therefrom, reminding them
that their philanthropic neighbors have
all purchased new padlocks for their
hen coops and coal bins and that their
long political arguments have elected
nary candidate nor purchased any
bread for the toiling wife nor festive
little rascals around the cook stove in
the shanty they term "home." The
lnyriads of frisky piglings that last
year sported in the barnyard sloughs
may now be found in the homes
through the land in any torn from
plain side pork and bacon to bar soap,
factory butter and sugar cured ham.
The season approaches when the oily
and glib-tongued lightning-rod, patent
| right and fraud insurance liars are
abroad In the land ready to fleece the
unsuspecting of what they have saved
during the summer. The joyous lad
who, but a few short months ago, came
out into the sunlight with two lily
white bare feet as fair in complexion
as the face of Mary Anderson, now en-
cases them in pair of cow-hide boots,
two pedals that are not unlike in ap-
pearence to the back of an alligator or
the rind of a Hubbard squash. Though
the coal dealers laugh and chuckie
with fiendish delight, all nature is not
glad, for the ministers of the gospel,
editors of country newspapers and the
fellows who labor for the dear people,
find their expenses increasing at the
approach of winter, and the cash ex-
ceedingly slow to come in, but it is
needless to say that they could all be
made as happy as clans, were the
ministers back salary paid up to date
the editors delinquent subscriptions
liquidated, and the rest of the fellows
paid what is due them.-Ex.

Lines written MS tribute to the
memory of the two fair yonng ladies'
who died within a few days Of each
other, both victims of that fell disease,
consumption.l
BLESSED are the pure in heart, for
they shall see God. st Matthew, v, g.
What words OF consolation to the be-
reaved ones. who are sorrowing for the
fair blossoms that have fadel from
earthly sight. but only fa6lei here. Tor they
will bloom In sweetness AMI purity in a
fairer cline. All, mourning relations
and friends, grieve not. Their brief
lives here were so pure and good. We
can but rejoice that .'they see God 10
sorrow will eer he theirs; no scalding
tears dim the brightness their eyes; no
more sickness, no more pain.
For now, with all the angels, on that
beauteous, shining shore.
Where no sorrows ever linger, and the
gloom of night is Ger.
Just beyond deaths silent river they
are dwelling with the blest.
On the bosom Of the Savior, where the
pure in heart find rest.
They are there among the angels, pure
and spotless ones above,
Gathering sweet and fadeless lilies, in o
home of endless love.
And in that home of glory, they are
waiting for the day,
When all their loved will meet them,
ns'er more from bliss to stray.

purpose intended, and there does
not now seem to be the remotest
possibility of a Town Hall ever be-
ing erected. Covington is now cut
off from the surrounding country.
The big bridge, the most important
in the parish, has been carried
away by the late rise of the Bogue
Falia. That bridge must be re-
built, and at once. Do you not
think-and il you think so, agitate
the question-that it would be ad-
visable to use the Town Hall fund
for bridge building? Let that
money, with whatever amounts that
may be raised, be used to build a
better. longer and higher bridge,
and Covington would doubtless be
far more benefited than by the
erection of a Town Hall.
Pro BoNo PUBLIco.
The stockholders of the Town
Hal! Association will hold a meet.
ing on 18th of April, to decide what
further action shall he taken on the
question of building Town Hall.
If the project is abandoned, the
money already raised could be put
to no better use than in helping to
rebuild the big bridge. This ques-
ton will have to be settled by a
vote of the stockholders, and as
none of them have paid up their
subscriptions to the fund, all sub
scribers will doubtless have AN
equal right to vote on the subject.
CoyiDgton needs public hall, but if
we can not raise enough money to
build one. let us give what we have
on hand toward building a new
bridge. Mr.. Heintz, chairman of
the committee of managers at the
last entertainment, reported bal
ance on hand of $7S 40, which,
added to the amount raised by the
entertainment of the Amateur
Club, sos. makes total of $143 40,
which could be used for bridge
purposes. and we have no doubt the
balance could easily be raised by
sub, cription.

JUDGE BOSSIER'S ELIGI-
BILITY.

Cocington, La, March 81, 1884.
EDITOR ST. TAMMANY FARMER:
Having heard it rumored that a
report was circulated concerning
Judge J. S. Boosters in.ligibility to
Office, on the ground of his being "A
mon resident" of the parish, !
hereby assert that he has never left
the parish. except for a few weeks
at time. His domicile, home,
mother, family. all are here, resi-
dents Of the parish for the past
thirty or thirty-five years. All their
property interests are conferred here.
Judge Bossier registers and votes
here, and has never ceased to do
so. He signs himself "of st. Tam
many parish" in all documents. II
sued, it would be in our courts. II
any ones interest can be perfectly
identified with the parish it is his,
for those he holds most dear are
here. and he has never given up
his home in this parish. He of
course works in New Orleans. some
thirty-five miles away. Tie incest
law-splitting could not transform
that into disqualification for hold
ing Office. When our country was
overrun with carpet-baggers, men
greedy for office and gain. whose
only object was to remain long
enough to amass a fortune, the
Legislature did pass laws to defend
the State against their filling Offices
to which our own citizens only
were entitled. The constitutional
convention enacted "that none but
citizens Of this State shall be APP
pointed to any Office of trust, profit
or honor in this State" Some of
our most eminent lawyers, Judges,
Senators aud members of the
Legislature concur in indorsing the
eligibility of Judge j. S. Bossier to
the office of representative from this
parish, as I hope and believe his
many friends here will by their
votes. The fact OF his employment
being away. from home is of neces-
sity, not choice. Does the sailor.
engaged in long voyages, become
disqualified for Office? Our mer-
chants, absent tor years, do they
on their return find themselves dis
franchised? Do ministers to for
eign courts lose all hope of filling
Office? 1t is to make our govern
ment robber Of liberties, because
a mau is absent a few weeks at
time to disfranchise him from the
privileges of citizenship. Ameri-
can law is not 80 framed. It is the
finest code in the world, being ab-
stracted from all the best ever
made-a perfect guarantee Of jus
tice. 1t could not. does not. dis
qualify man from holding office
whose home is in our parish-who
is one of ns. A FRIEND.

SL1DELL As SUMNER RESORT -
Mr.. Barnard Brown. general pas
senger and freight agent of the
New Orleans and Northeastern
road, has informed the Times Demo-
Graf that the owners Of the ground
at Slidell had given the railroad
company notice to remove all the
logs, as they intend at an early day
to erect q hotel building and open
Sliaeil as resort for excursionists
during the summer. 1t is UNDER
stood that Bayou Bonfouca, which
is very pretty stream and full Of
choice fish, will be improved and
rendered still more attractive.
Bath houses will be built on the
banks Of the bayou, and summer
houses and dancing pavillioEs
erected at convenient points Oh the
grounds. The officials of the road
state tina: they will be able to de-
velop quite a large excursion bust
ness this summer, as points on the
road offer more attraction than they
at first supposed.

Senator B. F. Jonas has sent us
circular letter for publication, but
its length precludes it from our
columns. We quote as follows:
"The hope of the people of Lou
isiana, as of the people of this
country, is in the Democratic par
ty. We have tried the Republican
party in our State, and in the gov
eminent of the Nation. We have
rid ourselves of its baneful infiu-
ence at home. Let MS maintain our
organization. and continue the good
fight until it is driven from the high
places of the Nation.
at would be q labor of love, as
we'll as matter of personal inter-
est, to take part in the proposed
canvass. but the people have as
signed me to other duties, which l
cannot neglect, and in attending to
which I can serve them better than
on the stump. In the Presidential
campaign I hope and expect to
take an active part in tie canvass
of our State, and must defer until
then my visit TO the parishes"
