CHURCH OF THE EPIPHANY.
Rev. Or. Parot Alludes to His Elevation 10

The Church of the Epiphany was dcnscly
crowded yesterday morning at the IL o'clock
antecommunion service. The rector, DR..
Paret, blshop.elect, ofioated for the first time
in three weeks
Notice was given that tho vestry had unani-
mously called DR.. Carroll Brewster, of Christ
Church, Detroit, as rector to MI the vacancy TO
be caused by the elevation of DR.. Paret to the
episcopatc. Also that q special collection
would be taken next sunday, by request OF the
yestry, to cancel the 81 500 remaining oil the
10000 debt that has been quietly paid OIL
during Dr. Parets rectorship.
The rector In his advent address very appro-
priately and foelingly referred to the approach
ing separation between himself and his parish,
and OF the fact that the call to the episcopate
came TO him in room where he had been
kept for twenty days In total darkness, Civ ing
him time for meditation that otherwise he
could not have found, lie spoke of the sad
ness the thought of the severance from this
parish caused him, and that after thirty-two
| year work as a rector with all the intimate
| relations between pastor and hock Drought
about in that capacity the reflection thai ne
| could not In his new office hope for such close
| indiyidualties must be one of deep regret.
| Much feeling was manifested In the congrc.
| CATION during the rector's remarks DR.. Paret
referred TO his probable successor, who Is ex
pected to preach at the Epiphany next sunday,
| In the warmest terms of eulogy, and predicted
that DR.. Brewster would be found all that

THE BANNER LEVEE PARISH.


We claim that so far as leyee work and
the preparations being made to withstand
the future floods of the Mississippi river
are concerned, Ascension is the banner
parish of the State From one end of the
parish to the other, ON both hunks Of the
river. and along Bayou Lafourche. our.
planters ane raising Their leYees at least a
foot above the high water mark Of 1884,
and long before the spring rise evil have
an unbroken line of high and solid en-
banknents to protect our parish from in
nnlation.
On Thursday Capt. NJ. W. barton, Parish
Surveyor, completed the task of surveying
the levees and setting stakes to indicate the
level to which the low levees should be
raised on the left bank of the river. and
the property holders ON that side followed
the example of those on the right bank in
going vigorously to work topping the low
embankments and strengthening them by
the addition of earth to the front or roar
slope, according as may have been deemed
desirable by the surveyor. This new earth
will have ample time to settle and become
hardened and grass grown ere it is called
upon to resist any pressure Of water.
Our Police Jury and riparian property
holders deserve great credit for the public
spirit and energy they have shown in pro-
viding timely safeguards against the an
nually recurring danger OF. overflow.

RESUMPTION OF Travel AND TRArrIe on


RESUMPTION OF TRAyEL AND TRAFFIe ON
THE Z. & Pit is with no little satisfaction
that we make the authoritative announce
mont Of the resumption of business to-mor-
| row, the 10th inst, on that portion of the
Texas and Pacific railroad extending from
Gou!dsboro to West Baton Rouge Junction,
over which no passenger or freight trains
have been running since the breaking Of the
Davis leyee, IL St, Charles parish, last
March, and the consequent sublnersion of
the track in that vicinity, followed closely
by similar submersion in the Atchafalaya
swamps. A substantial trestlework has
been constructed across the channel cut
out by the mighty volume of water that
poured through the Davis break and every
thing will be in readiness by tomorrow to
send trains over. The road-bed has been
raised about two feet nearly all along the
line from GouIdshoro to tbs Atclafalaya,
and in much better condition than hereto
fore. There will be two passenger trains
and Il freight train each way every day, and
head of our local columnss-yaries but little
from that in force before the occurrence of
the Davis crevasse. The through or Texas
train will leave New Orleans at 1916 p. H.,
passing Donaldsonville at A:1G and going
East will pass here at 1888 a. NJ, reaching
New Orleans at 1850. The Baton Rouge
or local train, which stops at all way sta
tions is to leave the city at $40 A. NJ; pass
ing Donaldsonyille at 11:31; returning, it
passes here at 40 and reaches the city at
GAO P. II. The latter train will not be put
on until Monday next, the 18th inst, but
the Texas train will commence running to-
morrow. Passengers leaving for the city
by the morning train will be landed in New
Orleans in three hours and twelve min
utes, and it is proposed to reduce this time
to two hours in the near future. The post
Offices on the right bank of the river be-
tween New Orleans and Baton Rouge are to
be supplied with mail matter by the Texas
and Pacific road, and those on the left bank
by the Mississippi Valley, Ell arrangement
that will undoubtedly give much satisfac-
ton, particularly to The people of the left
bank. We hear that the steamer Clipper
will n,t suspend her daily trips between
our town and Burnside station, connecting
with the Mississippi Valley trains, and we
hope she will continue to carry mails in
order that Donaidsonville may maintain
rapid communication with the post-offices
along the line of the Valley railway A
change of schedule also goes into effect on
the latter road tomorrow, and there will
be but one daily passenger train EACH way
instead Of two.

If the School Board is not under the immedi-
ate control of the Police Jury, but 10 an inde-
pendent body. capable Of managing its own af-
fairs and clothed with the proper authority SO
to do. Why should it not through its own troas-

into public education. rather than suffer same
to be transformed into hardware or dry goods

with other public monies alleged to have lately
