THE SURROUNDING COUNTRY
BUILDING ACTIVITY.

During the past season there was erected q
brick court house; three brick business BLOCKS
and over 800 wooden buildings, involving an
expenditure of over 81 100000.
The first industry established in Pierre was
Brick Making, of which there was manu1ac-
tured last season over 100000 of superior o,l
eeonnIeied TO manufacture more than l0,00O,-
600 the coming season. There is great demand
here for iron work, and q foundry and ma
chine shop which could make cast pieces ioi
buildings, breaking plows for the farmers, and
do repair work on implements and steam
boats, would do q very profitable business.

China for War.

LONDON, Aug. S1.-The Pail Mall Gazette
says: "There is not the slightest foundation
to the report that China wishes to
come to an agreement with France.
The Chinese consider the Foo Chow
affair as an act of treachery on the Ear Of
Admiral Courbet, who took the advantage
accorded to war-ships to enter Chinese ports
The barbarity of continuing the fire hours
after the Chinese vessels had ceased is the
cause of intense excitement against the Eu-
ropeansn

Scnrrilous Attack on the
Queen-The Chinese.

NEW YORK, Aug S1.-A special cablegram
to The Sun from London says: The hatred
of England, which has always been latent in
France, has now become rampant, and every
movement ON the part of the English govern
ment furnishes the text for TRADE in one
of the Paris papers. All the prepare
tions for the autumn expedition III
Egypt are, in the minds of the French
editorial writers, only added proofs OF the
proyerbial perfidy Of Albion. They say Glad
stone only waited until the termination Of the
Egyptian conference and the rising of parlia-
ment to put in operation plan which he has
long contemplated, and which means
no less than the absorption by England,
not only of the fertile Soudan, but
| all Egypt One paper says Disraeh
| earned his earlship and the gratitude of the
queen by making her empress of India"
and now Gladstone is TREMENDOUSLY following
| in the greater mans footsteps. "He is try
ing" the writer says ito capture Egypt,
and cares nothing for any loss of life, treas
ure or honor that may be involved, if only
he can add this other bauble to the diadem
of his aged mistress"
The most scurrilous article that has yet ap-
peared is published in La France, paper
| which has a circulation entirely among Re-
| publicanS, and is supposed to reflect in some
| degree the views of President Grevy. This
article calls the queen of England an old
Jewess, and apologies to Hebrews for the
use of the term 1t says she is almost con-
tinually drunk ON gin OF cherry brandy, and
her indispositions, which are described In
carefully chosen phrases, are only the result
of vulgar old woman's overindulgences.
The article then passes to the consideration OF
the character of the prince of Wales, and
says if he should ever succeed to the throne it
will only be choice of evils for the English
people; "for if Queen Victoria is selfish
glutton, it is also notorious that Prince
Albert Edward Is a selfish coward"
The Repubique Francois says: "The
mission of Lord Northbrook and Gen.
Wolseley to Egypt is a challenge to Europe
and public assumption that England has ex-
elusive power in Egypt. Has England con-
sidered her strength" the paper asks, "before
taking so grave steps 1t is to be noted that
Egypt formed the substance Of the recent
conference at Varzin between Bismarck and
Baron de Courcelesl, the French ambassador
to Germany"

One would have supposed that
when the nominations at Baton
Rouge were made known, the enc
mics Of the Administration would
have ceased thier abuse.
The Picayune however, in head
ing a column, let's off the following:
The announcement of the nomi
nations made by the Convention at
Baton Rouge has been received
here with profound dissatisfaction,
and will be SO received by the bet
ter part of the Democratic party
throughout the State. The result
may be briefly summed up as the
triumph of all the evil influences at
work in Louisiana politics. Monop
oily, ring-rule and demagoguism
have achieved a victory through
the arbitrary use of party machin
cry, and the corrupt employment
Of money and patronage.
This was quite compliment: to
a large majority of the voters in
the ranks of the Democracy of
Louisiana.
The masses Of L~Ouisianians &C
cording to the Picayune are all
"monopolists, ring rulers and Dem
agogues.
1t also adds:
The most appropriate commenta
nv upon this conclusion was furnish
ed by the failure of the supporters
of Gov. McEnery to secure the pas
sage of q resolution making his
nomination unanimous.
II the Picayune had added that
the failure to make the nomination
of McEnery unanimous only showed
the want of respect to the will of
the majority which had always
heretofore been shown BY nsinori
ties the sentence would have been
complete. ssI gaEdsseen3 :

Each character was well acted
and all the performers were Ell
titled to and received the praise
and concentrations Of the audience.
After the curtain dropped on the
last scene, Misses Lou and Ellen
Pugh with male friends appeared
upon the stage and brought down
the house with a comic song.
So delighted were the hearers that
they were recalled aud sang q sec
ond piece. As this was not down
on the programme this rich treat
was not anticipated by the au
dience.
The second evening was given
"The Sleeping Prince S." in which
about so children appeared iu a Sc
ries of very beautiful and splendid
rableaus.
The supper tables and punch and
egg uogg bowls were well patron
lied and the yonng people closed
each performance with a dance in
which the wit and beauty OF La
fourche, Assumption, Terrebonne
and New Orleans were we'll repre-
scented.
