The Shreveport Times says that
honest government has been wisely
made the slogan Of the Presidential
campaign, and says There must be a
rigid examination into every depart
ment, and every dollar paid in and
every dollar paid out accounted for.
II must not be expected that all the
rottenness that has existed and which
still peryades these departments will
be exposed. Much Of it will be Gov
cred not u 1.-THE Of it will be brought
to light; but enough Of it will be
found 10 shock the American people
and to warn them for a century
against corruption. Nor is it TO be
anticipated that any money will be
reclaimed. The good that will arise
from it will be traced in future adj
mipistrations, in which honesty will
be the rule and roguery the exception.
Under Democratic rnle there will be
no more Credit Mobilier' schemes

Editor Lake Charles Echo:
Dear Sir ourcry d heard. The
old saying, That no news was good
news is true in regard to US, in
5enniags and vicinity. Everything is
lovely, all are ii good health, hope
fnl and hard At work and Just this
nionsent particularly happy, to hear
the thunder rolling above us, pro
| phelic of (n1acli needed rain. The
pastweell brought us ono ort two slight
showers, mot enough to penetrated the
soil that lwasr refreshing, and laid tho
dust. We have been quite comforta-
bic without a fire, 90 in the shade is
pretty warm, bnttthe delightful Calf
breeze finds Us day and night, and.
makes US comfortable indeed. Tread
Of suntfrolSes At the North; I have yet
to hear Of a case here. Jennings is
growing and improving, new build
ings are being erected, yards fenced
IN, and gardens cultivated. North
aerneFs have scoHe to INSTRUMENTATION
that this soil is better than some East
erIi parishes had Representative them,
and have seen here as good corn as
seen in Iowa.
There is no doubt in my mind, in
regard to the productiYeness of this
prairie, everything can be raised here
that we can raise at the North, and it
is equally true, that many things can
be raised here that cannot be raised
North. Cultivation, stirring, and work
ing the soil, is more essential than
manures, but both work we'll. This
week ] saw a patch Of ground from
which was dug and sold fifty barrels
of tine Irish potatoes, at $3.50 per
barrel, this spring, and itnow has a
splendid looking crop Of sweet pota-
toes; after this is of, comes the Ruta
Baga; the patch contains less than
half an acre.
Schools are being opened. This
week past, seven of the different set
Elements around in this vicinity have
secured teachers, from our colony,) |
and where it was necessary, united in
putting up a suitable house for the
purpose. The school continues open
at Jennings, taught by Miss Patterson.
Our Sabbath school is well attended.
Also, Thursday and Sabbath evening
prayer meetings. i
We have been here about eight
during that time we have
seen no street fights or drunkenness;
we know liqnor is drank, but / will (
SAY for our Jennings, land it is part
Of .CaIeasieu) that from what ! can
earn and have seen Of other railroad
owns, we will take the palm for a 4
good, quiet, peaeeable and industrious 1
We look for n large emf
ration from the North and Westtthis {

Hoping l have not wearied your pa y

Tits the old cheat, the weather.worn

Il seems as though reign of dis
honesty, caused BY a greed for money,
has struck the country, and there &
no telling where and when It viii
step In almost every paper We pick

purpose Of pulling the wool over the
eyes Of the nnsophistieated who does
not happen to be familiar with'the.
''ways that are dark and tricks that

Of to-day is so familiar with.
Now comes the intelligence of the
failure Of the banking house of A.
Carriere d Sons, Of New Orleans, who
went into liquidation last month on
the death Of the seniormember of the
firm. The schedule Of assets and
liabilities of this firm, as published in
the New Orleans papers, discloses the
mostreekless use Of other peoples
money that we have ever read Of,
with, perhaps, the exception of the
Grant a. Ward steal and the Marine
Bank job. Their liabilities are ST.
o70,l5T.46 over and above their as.
sets, which shows conclusively that
this firm had become insolyent many
months ago and should have diseon-
tinued business long before they did.
But no, like the gambler who ywagers
his all and then bets what ever he
can borrow, they continue duping the
nnsuspecting, regardless of the pain
and suffering that their duplicity will
entail upon others
Again comes the still more bewild-
ering news of the failure of Green's
Bank at jackson, one Of the oldest
institutions of the kind in the State |
of Mississippi, with the same old story
of 'couldn't realize on collaterals,"
which entails very heavy losses on a |
great many poor, hard working people
of that city and State, who can III
afford the loss. +
The president, Mr.. Joshua Green,
in a card, assures The creditors Of this

The Real Ruler of Men.

The pen is the only scepter
which is never broken. The only
real master is he who controls the
thoughts of men. The maker of
words is master of the thinker who
only uses them. In this domain he
has no rival. He stands at the
fountainhead of thought, science,
civilization. He is controller of all
minds-to him all who talk, think,
write or print, pay ceasless and in
voluntary tribute. In this sense,
Noah Webster is the all-shaping,
all-controlling mind of this hemis-
phere. He grew up with his coun-
try, and largely by his Spelling
Book and Dictionaries, he nodded
the intellectual character Of her
people. Not q man has sprung
from her soil, on whom he has not
laid his all-forming hand. His
principles of language have tinged
every sentence that is now, or will
ever be uttered by an American
tongue. His genius has presided
over the language of the whole
nation. It is universal, omnipotent,
omnipresent. No man can breathe
the air of the continent and escape
it. The scepter which the great
photographer Yields so unquestion-
ably, was most worthily won. 1t
was not inherited, it was achieved.
1t cost life-struggle for an honest,
brave, unfaltering heart-a clear,
serene intellect. No propitious acct
dent favored his progress. The vic
tory was won after a steady trial
of sixty year,"

More Valuable than ever.

We direct our readers attention
elsewhere to the advantage, import
ance, and direct profit, of supply
ing themselves this year with the
AMERICAN AGRICULTURIsT, New
York, } the cheapest as well as the
most valuable journal in the coun-
try. Every number contains one
hundred columns of original reading
matter, by the leading writers of the
country, upon all topics connected
with the Farm, Garden, and House
hold, and nearly one hundred en-
cravings made especially for the
AMERICAN AGRICUDTURIsT. The
paper, now in its 43d year, is un-
questionably more valuable than
ever before. Each number brings
fresh evidence that no time or
money is considered where the in
terest of the paper is at stake. Its
(" House Plans and Improvements"
profusely illustrated, are worth more
than any costly architectural works.
Its persistent and fearless exposure
of humbugs and swindling schemes,
is of great value to the whole eoun-
try particularly the farming COM
In short it has something
good and valuable for everybody.
