Nous ayons d6ja parl6 du role,
tres important, cr0yons-nous,
que nos campagnes doivent jouer
dams la grande Exposition qui
s'appr6te d la Nouvelle- Orleans.
lie %gouvernenr de La Louisiana

les paroisses, un chaleureux APP
pei. Les journaux des diferen-
ties localities ont pris la parole 4
leur tour, ct lis engagent vive-
ment les Localities don't Ills sont
les organes, a s'entendre pour
d6ployer leurs resources, ct mon
trer au monde ce quest notre
Fiat ct ce quill produit.
Tout celia est tres bien, ct Pom
ne saurait assez encourager IN
pareil movement.
Mais nous sommes, tout d'a-
bord, arr8t6s par une objection
Que yoici : Nous entendons dire
antourde nous, r6peter jusqu'an
milieu de nos campagnes: que
p6uyent bien exposer nos pafois-
sess Apr6s leur sucre, lenr cotton,
leur mails. leur riz, qui sont a
peu pres de meme qualit6, dams
les differentes regions de la Lou
isiane, que i6ur reste-t-iI a faire

Ide yos ben6fces? Nous avons
notre sucre de cannes, que Pom
menace, pour faire les affalres
ldes rafineries de la Nouvelie-
Angleterre n'avez-vous pas vo-
ire sucre de sorgho, quepon sap
Iprete a victimeR aussi, dams 10
meme but? On vous salt forts,
Icela est vrai, ct Pom fait certai-
mes ayances a votre sorgho, sur
IIequel, dit-on, les rafineurs du
INord wont baserleurs operations.
Rappelez-vous Pexperience des
chemins de fer, ct mefiez-yous
des raffineries du Nord-Est. 81
ces deux examples ne suffisent
pas peur vous 6clairer, nous
vous plaignons.
"Inutile, du reste, d'insister
sur ce sujet; nous savons que la
double leeon a etc suffsante, de
quel cote sont yos sympathies,
a qui vous accordez, cordiale-
ment, votre appui. Vos int6-
rets, bien entendus, bien legi-
times, nous respondent de votre
conduite, etnous ne doutons pas
qu'au moment de la lutte, nous
ne marchions ensemble d Fen

fendre une senle ct meme cause"
Quand nous songeons que M.

temps, que lie sucre de cannes

d'existenee, ct que ses jours
etaient complies NJ. Frye est du
Maine, of course; ct d'od pour
RAFT venir Phomme qui s'amusait
a faire une 81 gracieuse pr6dic-
tion?
Nous lie croyons loin de comp
te, pourtant, ct l'alliance de
|POuest ct du Sud lui prepare,
sans null doute. de eruelles de-
ceptions.
Apres tout, nous ne yoyons
pas de quel droit la NouVelle-
Angleterre pr6tendrait exploit
ter, d ellie seule, toute rUnion,
CONNIE pAngleterre exploite lie
Vieux Monde. Que Europe Sc
laisse faire, nous nous c%ontente-
rons de la plaindre, n'ayant au-
trement, rien q voir; les Etats-

que n'hesiteront pas q faire dun

En- attendant, lie monde a les
yeux fixes sur nous il nous in

Par son testament, notre Vez
nerable Archeveque a constitute
la Corporation dePEglise Catho-
lique Romano de &c Diocese sd
I6gataire universelle. La Cor
poration desire accepter ce legs
purement ct supplement, c'est-
a-dire sans condition mails ellie
doit, en- meme temps, ouvrir les
yeux sur les consequences de
son acceptation.
Presque tous les biens-fonds
on immeubles de PEglise Oatho-
lique, Ell Louisiana, sont an nom
de fen pArchey6que. L'accep-
tation du legs universal fait par
lui obligerait par consequent la
Corporation a payer toutes les
dettes contractees par lui, soft

sident de la Corporation, SOFT
CONNIE individu, pesdant lie
cours de son administration epls-
copale.
Or, ces dettes s'elevent aujour-
d'hui a quatre cent mile pias-
tres; une Motto de cette somme
enorme est due en- Europe, ct
l'autre Motto aux Etats- Unis.
Plusienrs des complies ct billets

personnelles de notre feu Archie

ne dot etre faite entire les diver
SEES reelamations. Les dettes
personnelles de Mgr. Perche sont
la consequence dune charlie
sans bornes, qui donnait meme

La Corporation de ee Diocese

sources 6teindre la dette. Pour
cette euxre, qui interesse rhon-
neur de l'Eglise ct lie bien de Ia

du Clerge ct des Fideles de cet
Etat ct de rUnion entiere.

Thousands Hastened to their
Graves!

Relying on testimonials written In vivid
glowing language of some miraculous cures
made by some largely pulled up doctor or
patent medicine has fastened thousands to
their graves ; believing in their almost in
sane faith that the same miracle will be
performed on them, and that these testimo-
mails make the cures, while the so called
medicine is all the time fastening them to
their graves. We have avoided publishing
testimonials, as they do not make the cures,
although we have
THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS
of them, of the most wonderful cures, vol
unfairly sent us. 1t is our medicine, Hop
Bittcrs that makes the cures. 1t has never
failed and never can. We will give refer
ence to any one for any disease similar to
their own If desired or will refer to any
neighbor, as there is not q neighborhood In
the known world but can show its cures
by Hop Bitters.
LOSING JOKE.
A prominent physician Of Pittsburg said to a
lady patient who was complaining OF her continued
Ill health and OF his inability TO cure her, jokngy
said 'Try Hop Btters !" The lady took It In
earnest and used the Bltters from which she OBJ
doctor ior his joke, but he is not so well pleased
with 1t, as 1t cost him good patient
FEES OF DOCTORS
The fee of doctors is an item that very
many persons are interested in. We be-
iieve the schedule for visits is SO co. which
would tax a man confined to his bed for
year, and in need of daily visit, over
81, 600 year for medical attendance alone!
And one single bottle of Hop Btters taken
in time would save the 81 900 and all the
years sickness.
A LADY's WISH.
"Oh, how do wish my skin was as clear and
soft as yours" said lady TO her friend ''You can
easily make II So" answered the friend. ''How ?"
inquired the first lady ''By usi Hop Btters
that makes pure, rich blood and blooming health.
IL did for me as you observe"
GIVEN UP BY THE DOCTORS
us it possible that Mr.. Godfrey is up
and at work, and cured by so simple a
remedy ?"
Z II assure you 1t is true that he is entirely
cured, and with nothing but Hop Btters,
and only ten days ago the doctors gave
him up and said he must die, from Kidney
and Liver trouble" !"
