THE ANGEL OF THE FLOW
Frs.
TSaected. I

Selected.
The angel of the flowers one day
Beneath rose-tree sleeping lay
That spirit to whose charge is given
To battle young buds in dews from
Heaven.
Awaking from his slight repose,
The angel whispered to the rose:
"Oh. fondest object of my care,
Still fairsst found where all is fair,
For the sweet shade thou hast given me,
Ask what thou wilt, tbs g.anted thee"
Then said the rose, with deepened glow:
''On me another grace bestow."
The angel paused in silent thought
"What grace was there that flower had
not?"
Twas but q moment-o'er the rose
A veil of moss the angel throws,
And, robed in natures simplest weed,
Could there. a flower that rose exceed?

The Mexican reciprocity treaty
was adopted by the Senate last
Wednesday, by vote of Al to 20.
In reference to this treaty the Daily
States says: Involving as it does a
question of revenue to the govern
ment, it will require legislation on
the part of the House before it can
practically go into effect. As only
a majority, however, is required. to
pass the necessary laws, it. is not
probable there will be much delay,
since the friends of the measure are
numerous, active and influential,
and will lose no time in securing its
early operation. 1t will be years,
however, before its sugar feature
will affect the. interests of Louisi-
ana; its beneficial effects, however,
upon our co mmerce with Mexico,
will be felt within brief period af-
ter its enforceme nt.

a well-known and popular citizen,

has decided, for tie sake of har-
mony and unity, and the welfare of
the party, to withdraw from the
contest. This action, on his part,
is patriotic and highly commenda-

Sheriff Cook is the choice of a large

THE TEMPERANCE QUESTION

The voters of the parish will be
called upon to decide, at the cleo
ton in April next. whether the sale
of intoxicating liquor shall be con-
tinued, or prohibited. All voters
residing outside of incorporated
towns will have a right to vote on
the question, and it is for them to
say whether its sale shall be longer
permitted or not. The subject has
been agitatsd for some time past,
and it is believed this question will
have the effect of bringing out an

GOOD ADVICE.

The Monroe Bulletin, in an able
leader upon the benefits to be OBJ
tanned from the Worlds Exposition,
gives its readers the following good
advice. which is applicable to every
parish:
Let the people discuss this mat
ter, hold me, tings, talk it over,
send delegates to the place selected,
to enter into n thorough organiza-
ton. Let the Police Juries con-
slider it, and lend the financial and
official aid of the parishes to make
it success. No half-bearted nor
luke-warm interest must be allow
ed to chill the enthusiasm of those
who are willing to give their time
and talents to SO great a cause.
Every town in the valley. and every
neighborhood in every parish. every
corporation and commercial firm,
and every land owner. should con-
tribute money and influence to the
common purpose. This is practical
patriotism, and would be ofinfinite-
ly more value to the country than
all the spoutings and cadenced
measures of all the politicians who
ever sawed the air in vain attempt.
to talk US into prosperity. We need
more people to cultivate our waste
lands, to build factories. to build
railroads, to found new towns, to
fill up the empty places. To get
them we must show them that we
have a desirable countrv-and we
can't do that without money!"
