When we first heard Of the
forming of a brass band by the
Younger men Of our town, We
we're elated and looked upon it as
a step in the right direction, bat
unfortunately it meets with OBJ
iections and fa%ult6aders are
found, who would almost make it
out a nuisance, a shocking dis
turbance of their nightly rest and
slumbers, shocking to their nerves
and a quasi disturbance Of the
public peace. We are sorry such
antipathy and tender feelings are
cited, over a thing which is con
sidered as an improvement, a thing
much to be desired 10 all'civilizcd
communities, and always com
mended. by appreciative and pro-
%gressive minds. The Juveniles are
very sorry that their efforts al
music lave been shocking and
harsh grating to the nerves o.
some, but they cannot help it and
will continue in their efforts, until
their music will no longer be 9
nuisance lin the minds Of some,
and be beyond the reach of theil
criticism.

THE LEVEE

person may perhaps be permitted
to say something about LeVees :
and the Great Levce Governor OF
Louisiana, without being dragged
into the dirty pool OF politics, and
accused of attempting to inlure
the chances of the Great Levee
Governor. All people who read
the papers, and have reasonably
good memories, recollect that all
last summer and fall, the "7ines-
Uemoerot' the chief hornblower,
for the "Lerec' faithfully promised
that foundations should be no
more in the lowlands Of Louisiana.
The Great Levee' was prepared
to manacle that ancient father OF
waters, and see that he be kept alta
respectable distance. This was at.
the time when the Great Levee"
was illegally and unJustly spend
ling the proceeds of the sales of
the swamp lands Of Vermilion and
Cameron parishes, in building the
,E"Possum Fork" levee in the State
of Arkansas, to protect the good
people of Chicot City. The in
|justice and illegality Of this act,
was excused on the plea that
thenceforth, North Louisiana was
to be fully reclaimed from the
floods Of the Mississippi. When
) this promise was made the father
Of many waters, was not present
and his ratification was not OBJ
tanned. But that did not matter
much with the "Great Leuee" as he
knew that in the course OF things,
the old fellow would not put in
his appearance and plead that he
was not a party to the promise,
until after the State Conven-
ton met providing it met early
enough and that a great deal OF
good bunkum could be made out
of the bare promise, by the
"Great Levec," without the ratifi.
, cation Of the "Tuther Of Waters.
: 1t mattered not however that all
this time, there was a gap of four
or five miles extent, at Mathews
9 bend, about 60 miles below the
6 Opossum Fork levee, which would
easily let in as much water, a.
, 0possum Fork could keep out
o most people did not know this
and the Great Levee" was not
the one to tell them Of it. Sc
much for the promise Of the
"Great Levee" made in the absence
of the "Father of much Waters
Now for the performance. Wher
the Father" made his annual Wis
it to Louisiana, he came right
along as was usual with him. HI
WHOLLY disregarded the promise:
of the Great Levee" just as hi
e had a hundred times before dis
regarded the promises Of othel
l great personages. He paid BIZ
usual visit to all portions of thu
e State he was in the habit Of visit
ing, just as if the Great Ievec'
. did not exist, and was not securely
e%nthroned at Baton Rouge. AL
this is but a thrice told tale ant
l. more than that it has been told
hundred times, and everytime, a

WASHINGTON CITY, May l2.-During the
discussion of the Indian question in the SEN
ate Senator Dawes related the following:
One Holferino is cowboy. Black Wolf
is a big injun. Holferino made a bet with
his friend that he could put a rifle bull
le! through the Indians hat without
t1uching MS head. He made a slight mis-
raie, however, and put the bullet through the
head instead Of the hat. The Indians felt out
IA ,eI 10y this, and in the excitement grow
ing out Of the incident they burned house be-
longing to the cowboys. The house-burners
were tried and sentenced to five years impris-
onment But the man who shot the Indian
is still untried and unpunished. The Indians,
Mr. Dawes added, naturally felt that justice
hal not been done them, and he wanted the
secretary of the interior to report if any steps
have been taken to punish the cowboy for his
bad craftsmanship.
