HymeEeal.

1t is with pleasure we chronicle the
marriage Of Mr.. James Darlington, Of
Ascension Parish, and Miss Sarah
Williams, of this city. Mr.. Darlington
was few years ago a resident of this
Parish, and was acting in the capacity
of assistant manager to Mr.. VIM. Nc
Call, on the Willow Glen place, own
ed by Mr.. VIM. Harris Miss Sarah
has always been a favorite of her sex,
being the possessor of many charms
and traits, besides being just the young
lady to make any man happy in this
world. Friend jim has most certainly
drawn a golden prize in the lottery of
life, and will find Miss Sarah a help
mate to both encourage and cheer him
onward, We congratulate the young
couple on their new departure, and
hope and trust that they will ever and
always enjoy the blessings and felici-
ties of life. The bride was the recip-
lent of many costly gifts from her nu-
merous friends, who will regret. to see
her leave our midst to take up her res
idence in one of the Coast Parishes,
where her husband is now engaged in
business. The happy twain leave this
day on the palatial packet Jesse K.
Bell, which steamer, by the way, has
heretofore borne from our midst many
of the loveliest daughters of Rapides
For the kind remembrance of the
DEMOCRAT we return thanks. May
the youthful couple who have thus en-.
tered the marriage state have their
fullest anticipations experienced ant
may no danger or trials beset them
Such an union must "make a life of un
alloyed delight and cover every grie
with flowers and sunshine"

UNDER date of December Sth,
1888, quite number Of the friends of
Mr.. J. H. Meeker requested that gen.
tleman to allow the use of his name as
a candidate for the Legislature at the
next election, subject to the nomina-
ton Of the Democratic Convention.
After some delay and hesitancy Mr.
Meeker replied as follows, which will
no doubt be final: 81 have hesitated
some time in answering your invitation
to allow my name to 60 before the
Convention as candidate for the Leg
islature. have considered the matter
in every light, and l know there are
many gentlemen more worthy and cap
able of representing our Parish, and to
whom it would be less personal sac
rifice than to myself. Grateful for the
unsolicited compliment conferred upon
me, by so many worthy citizens, res
pectfully decline to allow my name to
60 before the Convention as candi-
date"
The usual moving of families,
occasioned by the coming of the New
Year has already started: Thus far
we chronicle: Mrs. Calvit has moved
into the Garner house on the corner Of
Second and Fish; Mrs. Garner has
gone into the corner store or dwelling
on Beanregard; Mrs. Goodwin has
left the Clements place and moved in
to the McManus brick house on Wash
ington Street, lately occupied by Mrs.
Calvit; Mrs. Crawford has moved from
the Cluney house and gone into the
two story brick dwelling of L. V.
Marye near the Morgan Depot; Mr..
Russell G. Rogers has moved from the
corner of 3rd and DeSoto to the Bern
ard Mayer residence on Second Street;
Mires Rosenthal has moved from Mrs.
Forbes to the Ashley house on John
ston, formerly owned by Robt. P. Hun
ter; Moses Rosenthal goes to the Jonas
We'll residence from the Chantz prop
erty on the corner of Fourth and MUIR
ray.
-JoHN R. Smart, one of the repre-
sentative men of Vernon Parish, and
by the way staunch Democrat of the
old school of politicians, has written
to Mr.. Robt. P. Hunter, who is a can
didate for the Legislature, at the COM
ing election. Mr.. Smart in wishing
Mr.. Hunters success in the present
campaign, says: "that if the Lcgisla-
ture is composed of such men as your
self, that our noble old State, would
not again be disgraced," etc. Mr..
Hunter ought and no doubt does feel
proud at having such flattering words
bestowed Con him, particularly as it
comes from one who would have for
Louisiana and Rapides a just govern
ment under which our people could
live Happy. We are of opinion that
Mr.. Hunters election is almost a Ger
tainty, being assured that he has as
his supporters the respectable and well
thinking people of our Parish. We
hope and trust so any how, for besides
being worthy gentleman, Mr.. Hun
ter is inst the man that we like to see
official 'honors thrust upon.

ST. Louis, April "a, 1884.

DIT. LOUIS, Aprll Il, loOf.
ED. FREE PREss.-We are having q
faint CLEAN of sunshine this morning
after one week of uninterrupted rain,
sleet and and snow. The weather for
the past month has been awful, and
much damage to crops will be the re
suit in Missouri. At Kansas City
the snow was two inches deep yes
terday.
The criminal court this morning
gave decision overriding the mo-
ton for q new trial in the case Of
Otto L. Dierberger convicted of the
murder of an Englishman named
Harne in q market street car ON
the evening Of the oath of May last.
Dierberger is handsome young Ger
man of respectable and wealthy
parents. Too much beer betrayed
him into deadly conflict with fellow
man, and now his plea of self defense
will not avail him, and his doom
seems dark indeed, Notwithstanding
the efforts of his numerous and well
paid counsel. Fred. j. Dietricks,
another fast and dissipated young
man was held in the sum of
$4,000 by Judge Noonan to answer
the charge of embezzling $4,000 in
the IIaclede Bank while acting as tel
Ter of that institution. The police
department in it's report say (among
many other startling facts), that 81
men committed suicide in st. Louis
during the year ending April LIST. 81,
and that Al were Germans. Then
comes the report of those who have
murdered others, it runs up into the
the hundreds-hard to believe, but
undeniably true. The cause is in
nearly every case whiskoy and beer
The saloons, however go on increas-
ing in number under the connivance
and protection of the city govern
ment, which seems to be II kind of
silent partner in the traffic of desola-
ting homes and filling jails and in
sane asylums. One hundred and
twenty divorce suits were brought at
one term of our circuit court, nearly
all the plaintiffs being women and
the cause of complaint drunkenness.

After One Week Of Woe Bride Returns
TO Her Fathers House.

Just one week ago last Sunday the
Statesman babe "Good speed" to n
couple Just starting out upon the
great sea of life together; but at
the time it little thought it would so
soon be called upon to chronicle the
washing ashore of one of the voy-
ayers. Perhaps the step was prema-
ture and i'll advised, the twain having
been acquainted but a few days, yet
the fact still remains that an honest,
trusting woman's heart risked oil
upon the man of its choice, and is
now drinking the wormwood and gall
as its reward.
The Miss Neal Ramey of ten days
ago is now the broken-hearted wife
of IN unworthy man. MIR. Tooke
and his bride left this beautiful city
of ours on Sunday, April 20, reach
ing San Antonio in the evening.
For three days all moved smoothly
and happily, but Thursday the old
habit-the old temptation-overcame
the man. and proved more than he
could resist. The weeping wife
demonstrated, gently. but firmly. She
plead that she had left father, mother,
kindred, friends-all who loved her
for him, and that she had right to
expect some just return.
The husband promised much, but
the night OF the recent shooting affray
at the Vaudeville, there, found him
prominent among the actors in the
affair. Then the police court became
his scene of action. Finding that
her husband had abandoned himself
to drink and a dissolute life, the weep
ing woman has made her way back
to her fathers house and her friends,
to live throughout the balance OF her
days with shadow in her eyes and q
sorrow in her heart. And day of
retribution may yet come to him who
is responsible for all this womans
woes.-Austin Statesman.
The above is another impressive
warning to silly women who marry in
haste to repent at leisure, and especi-
ally drinking or sporting men.
