A Serious Accident,

Chaa. Mix Record: A very serious
accident occurred near Darlington on
the 18th inst. to bright intelligent
little boy twelve years OF age, son of
Mr.. James Daffer, who was on wagon
loaded with grain, in company with his
father and brother, when suddenly they
heard scream, and. looking around
caught sig ht OF the httle fellow falling
between the front and hind wheels
His brother, who was driving down q
decline, could not bring the horses to a
dead stand, and the wheel passed over
the lower part of the head, severing the
left ear almost from the body, and in.
tlcting two large scalp wounds. The
little boy was taken to the hotel and DR..
Halght was quickly in attendance. who,
after careful examination, pronounced
no bones broken. He sewed the wounds
putting several stitches in the ear. The
little fellows patience under the trying
circumstances was quite surprising.

Harmony EGeigms in Rapides
Parish.
Special to The Tines-Democrat

ALEX ANDRIA, Dec. 28.-The prelimi-
nary trial of Mr.. George Marsh, for the
killing of Richard Reinach on the 10th
instant, resulted last night in his being
admitted to bail by Hon. w. f. Black
man, judge of the District Court.
Political asperities among quondam
factions in Rapides, engendered by the
bitterness of the campaign, have been
gradually wearing away since the Baton
Rouge nominations. The central exec
utlve committee, appointed by the anti
administration element on the 10th in
slant, of which Mr.. James Jettries is.
chairman and Mr.. John A. Williams
secretary, is composed OF prominent
and loyal Democrats. While the mem
bers OF this committee, as individuals.
opposed the nomination of Gov. Mem
cry, they will, as committee, undoubt-
eddy, do all in their power to conduct
the campaign solely in the interest OF
harmony in the Democratic party OF
Rapldes, and with view to uniting all
elements in support of the State. ticket
the committee, OF which Hon. Lewis,
IeXada is chairman, will abdicate, so to-
speak, and cooperate as true Democrats,
IN their individual capacity, and thus
insure party unity. Tie wisest opinion.
of Gov. McEnery's friends is, that the
action OF the committee on credentials
lln admitting the anti-administration
delegation to seats in the convention
virtually recognized the authority Of
Mr.. Jettries' executive committee, and
that such action is a species of judg-
| ment. The outlook, therefore, promises.
speedy reconciliation of all party dis
cord, and q united Democracy in Ra-
pldes. NO tOOthOld will be allowed for
NfT tn
nothing will be left undone by Gov. Nc
Enery's friends to promote peace in the
party ranks.
When the mass-meeting was held in
Rapides, to elect delegates to the State
convention, the friends of Gov. Mem
cry, being in the minority, bolted and
elected delegates anyhow. The COM
mittee on credentials at the State con-
vention first decided to admit the boil
ters' delegates; but, before reporting,
reversed their decision and admitted
the proper delegates. We suppose they
became ashamed of their previous ac-
ton, or ascertained that such unjust ac-
ton was not necessary to secure the
nomination Of Gov. McEnery. 1t is all
very nice to talk about harmony now,
after the prize has been secured by those
who failed to practice harmony when it
was virtue. There never was such q
lack of harmony in the Democratic par
ty in the State, as during tile campaign
previous to the Baton Rouge nomina-
lions, and all caused by the rule or ruin
policy Of certain men to be kept in office
and Of others to hold their grip on the
State government.
St. Landry democrat. (Opelousas, La.) 1878-1894, 1884-01-05

The salary of the Archbishop of
Paris has. just been cut down from
$4,000 to $4,000. The Archbishop of
Canterbury has $4,000 and two palaces.
But the latter is married man and his
expenses are of course greater.-[States.
Christ had no salary at all. But be-
cause the Archbishop of Paris can get
to heaven on $4,000 a year, that is no
proof that the trip will not cost the
Archbishop of Canterbury $4,000.
One man can get along comfortably on
what another wastes. But if there is
any religious significance in the, affair
of Lazarus and Dives, and the com
parison of the rich man going to heaven
and the loaded camel going through
the eye Of a needle, we are Of the OPT
Mon that all these. pompous and high
salaried church officials will have a
hard road to travel in getting to
heaven. The meekness, humility and
poverty which characterized the foun-
der of Christianity, seem to be want
ing in bis representatives Of to-day.
St. Landry democrat. (Opelousas, La.) 1878-1894, 1884-01-05

Some pitiful traits of human charac-
ter were developed in New York just
before thanksgiving. 1t is we'll known
that the inmates OF the jails and peni-
tentiaries on BlackWell's Island were al
ways treated to q thanksgiving dinner
and on the preceding day, therefore,
there is invariably an urgent crowd of
tramps and Migrants of the station
house anxious to be sent up to the Is
land for Just one day, in order to share
the anticipated feast. This year the
pressure was even more clamorous and
persistent than heretofore, and in
many cases men and women had COM
mitted some petty offense purpOsely to
make their committal absolutely sure
Exchange.
These "pitiful traits of human charac-
ter" are the peculiar development Of a
high state of civilization. Under no.
other condition could they occur. They
are unknown to a sparse population,
and high civilization does not exist
where the population is sparse. The.
more civilization, the more crime. An
absence of civilization does not mean
savagery; some of the most molten
sive and harmless people in the world,
know nothing about civilization, and
the greatest crimes Of the present age.
are committed by the most civilized ma.
tions.
