Lay of the Last Minstrel.

Protection is the forte of monopoly men,
The animus OF certain minds,
And Tariff for Revenue Only moves some to
take up pen,
To trace out worthy lines,
But for my part I cannot see the ken
Which animated Butler Ben,
When he deprived our kin
OF the spoons which he thought so thin,
But since myrmidons around his martial steps
Gathered the contlscated spOils OF war Tor Ben,
He sees tit to number his "epS"
In the march of Protection men.
He and Kelly met their Waterloo at Chicago,
And bolted after Macedonian effort
To tack their banner to the Democratic cargo.
But Ben still winds his lays,
Unmindful OF what the Southern people says
Of the infamous deeds he wrought,
When silver spoons i'll n. O. he sought.
And now to gain the peoples confidence,
He strives to make believe his love for labor
in2men 'simmence.
But i'll beti& Q the day
on which he leaves his frozen bay,
To take his seat in the house OF Washington
But Butler Ben for confscated goods.
You had better relegate 10 the woods
For if you trust him with the Presidential boat
Sure, for sure, the nation meier will float.
But since there comes one small voice from
Mass. Bay,
Incline your ear and listen what 1t has to say,
In soothing accents the B-exclalms, down
with .Plumed knights from Maine.'
For immaculate B. must rule IN spite OF CleYe-
land, SANITY John or Blame"

Dear DEMOCRAT
The Camp Meeting at Belle Cheney
Springs occupied most of the public
attention about here last week, break
ing up on the evening of the nth inst.
having been quite successful in awak-
ening sinners to repentance. In front
and on the gallery of Capt. Sam. Haas
store, there was d political gathering of
sixty or seventy voters last evening to
listen to Congressman Lewis, who de-
livered an interesting speech giving an
Washington. Mr.. Lewis remarks were
we'll received by the meeting and the
indications are strongly i'll favor of his
having delegates from Chicot who de-
sire his denomination for Congress by
the convention that meets next month.
For nearly twenty-tOuI years the Re-
publican party have been III power in
tile government, commencing with the
good Lincoln, as their first president,
and ending pray Gnt, with the pres
ent incumbent, H..u President Hayes
declared, III d MESSAGE 10 the United
States Son"ts, racket capacity and in
tegrlty uane proper collector of
customs lys the Post New York. In
1860 al Inc Inauguration of Lincoln
there were not far from $4,000 govern
ment officials, men vino held office and
were paid salaries by The National
Government, which governmental force
has now increased to vast horde num-
bering near 10000 most Of whom, like
the filthy frogs Of Egypt, are constantly
crawling up into the bread trOughs of
the people and devouring their sub
stance. How truthful and applicable to
the taking proclivities of the Republic
can party is the text: "My house shall
be called house of prayer, but we have
turned it into den of thieves

AS the result of legislative action, our
judicial district is to be provided with
another judge, although one judge for
the last fifty years has not only been
sufficient to perform the judicial func-
tions Of the district, but until the change
in the constitution the parish of Terre-
bonne also constituted q part Of the
district, and even then there was no
complaint that the course of justice was
delayed for the want of another judge.
If there were any good ground for the
change we should be the last one to OBJ
ject but under the circumstances we
look on it as taking from the State
Treasury the sum of three thousand
dollars per annum which should be used
| for other purposes. Our State is In
| debt, and IL is siIiheuit to make both
erds meet. Increased assessments have
been recommended to force the tax
payers to take from their scant earnings
a little more money to meet the obliga-
| tons of the State. Yet, in the face of
all this mounting about economy d new
| Office is created with fat salaTy.--As-
sumption Pioneer.
1t was very easy matter to get bill
through the legislature providing for a
constitutional amendment to unjustly
| tax the people $4,000 per annum fol
fifteen years; and to provide useless
| offices at the peoples expense. But the
Legislature refused to pass bills to dc
away with the lottery company which
is controlling the politics of the State
or to restore to the people the privilege
of electirg their police juries or to re.
store to the State the penitentiary labor
which is formed out for a mere song
and hired by the State at high price
The legislature ought to be abolished.

A New Require menG i'm Modern
Farming.
American Agriculturist.

American AErlcultur1st.
A good farmer always needed skill,
but in the changed conditions OF mod
ern farming different kind OF skill is
needed from that required by our IA
theirs and grandfathers. This is more
largely the case West than East but
true in both. Formerly it was mostly
manual skill in the use of simple imple-
ments, such as the sickle, the scythe
and the common walking plough. Now
the farmer needs to know how to adjust
run, and care for machinery. Machines
properly handled cali for little manual
exDertness to run them. But to man
age the present implements requires a
degree of mechanical skill that large
proportion of our farmers do not pos
sase, To comprehend the full extent
of this change, compare the modern
tbreshing machine with the old-fash-
toned fail, or the self binding harvest
err with the old sickle, or its successor,
the grain-cradle. Every careful obser-
YER must recognize the fact that the
lack of skill in using and caring for his
machinery, is one of the most potent
sources of loss to the farmer. We have
known one man to use mower for ten
wears, without eXpendlnR over thirty
! doIlSrs in repairs-Or three dollars an
nually-while his neighbOr, in cutting
smaller quantity of grass used up
three equally good machines in the
same time. Compare the expenses of
| this one item First farmer expended
one hundred aud thirty dollars, plus,
say seventy dollars for interest-or two
hundred in all-for ten years. This is
just twenty dollars per annum quite
an item, will say for moving tools alone
but still much cheaper than moving
| with the scythe. The other wore out
three machines, three hundred dollars,
to which add repairs, say same as the
other, thirty dollars, and interest on
one hundred dollars. for ten years, sew
enty dollars on one hundred dollars
(the second machine, for six years. for
/ ty-two dollars. and on another one
hundred dollars (the third machine
for three yeals,) twenty one dollars and
you have grand total of four hundred
and sixty-three doflars-or forty -siz
dollars and thirty cents per annum-aL
j annual expense of more than twice al
, much as the other. The same calcula'
tions concerning the harvester, the sui
ky plough, the hay-rake, aud othel
