A Contrast. Hon. E. John Ell.
lis, the "silver-tongued orator OF
Louisiana" has purch lsed, for the
sum Of $50. 900. the historic prop.
erty in Washington City, known as
the Carroll place. which for many
years disputed with the Van Ness
mansion the claim of being the
finest house on the banks of the
Potomac. It is in the old Grecian
style. two stories high. and sur.
rounded by fine old trees. Mr..
Ellis will improve the place. and
make it again, as it once was. one
of the most attractive spots in
Washington. The house in which
Mr.. Ellis was born, here in Coving.
ton. nearly 45 years ago. is still
in good repair. and is owned and
occupied by Mr.. Reiling ms dwell
ling and shoe shop. We imagine
that in many respects there is q
slight difference in the appearance
of the two mansions.

ator "a rather serious reflection
upon his honesty-we concluded TO
investigate the matter. and give the
facts to the public. For this pur-
pose we interviewed the operator
at Covington. and received from
him the following statement:
On Monday morning. the 18th
inst, message was handed to me
by Capt. H. Michaelis, proprietor
OF Long Branch Hotel, with in
structions that if I could not get it
off by. 10 A. NJ, not to send it. On
account of the rainfall, it was i'm
possible to get the message through
to Slidell by the time specified, aud
consequently it was not forwarded.
This message was not paid for.
The principal trouble is with The
Slidell Office, as the box there docs
not work well. In fact all the boxes
on the line (being those of the Ma
tional Improved Telephone Co.,
arc far inferior to the ones first
used by the company, and it is with
great difficulty that mes sages can
be transmitted at all. It is only
through the courtesy of the oper-
ator at Bayou Lacombe that a mes
sage can be sent from here to Sill
dell, as he receives aud forwards it.

Chronic CotaFfh.

c. w. Mellier, Of 4o6 South Fourth
street, st. Louis, is twenty years Of age,
and has been q sufferer from chronic
catarrh, which had become quite often
sive. When he came to DR.. Hartman, two
months ago, he was told it would take six
months to cure him. But he has pro-
gressed beyond all expectations, and
nearly all signs of the disease have dis
not breathe out of the nose, and now he
has perfect control of the nasal organ.
PERuNA did the business.
James Dunn, of 1870 Gay street, St.
Louis, has suffered from catarrh since
1870. The gentleman told the reporter
the following straightforward story of
his case. I" took the disease in Mem
phis. It commenced in my head and
. extended to my throat, and a bad cough
followed. went to number Of ply
sicians, and they told me my trouble was
liver disease, and one said it was palpita-
ton Of the heart that caused the cough.
For the last year have been practically
worthless. | could not ascend fight Of
stairs without suffering from shortness of
breath and fast beating Of the heart, and
my appetite was very defective. After
eating often coughed SO hard that
would throw up everything in my stom-
ach. could not walk any distance with
out painting. Five weeks ago I went
under the care Of DR.. Hartman. and now
my cough has disappeared and feel like
q new man." PERUNA was his treat
ment.
Next came George Sauerbaum, residing
at 1920 Carr street, st. Louis, who is an
old patient Of DR.. Hartman. He stated
that he had suffered most intensely from
chronic catarrh of the head and lungs, but
Is now almost cured, his lungs being en-
tirely well and his head greatly improved.
The gratitude Of this gentleman was
almost boundless, and he expressed it to
the reporter in the strongest terms, say
ing PERUNA will cure any disease"

fectiye!y employed than sprig oi

clans.
As for the Climbs, / can say for
them that not single spront of
the genus clan has a foothold in
their principles. The "Rosebuds, +"
I am sure, would blush for the
mere assertion. and SO hang their
native sign to shrw where honor
and modesty reign. And the
"Magnolias" must emerge from
any sncb imputatinn with ermine
rs spotless as the flower and bright
rs the green of the tree from which
their namc is taken.
Yet it is for the Climbs themselves
to come forward and set the exam
pie suggested by the eloquent and
friendly "E. D. L." Let them meet
in the intercourse of a friendly ri
valry, and give joint rs well rs
separate entertainments. And to
the large and very influential body
referred to as the "nameless." I
suggest that they come forth from
their modest retirement and take
the name of the "Moss Rose Club, ,"
aud that the whole floral tribe be
then united, under the sign OF the
acacia, and so let Friendship reign,
both within and beyond the boun-
daries of Covington.

EDITOR ST.. TAMxANY FARMER:
Covington is beautiful place
and a charming spot in which t.
reside. Nature has done much to
make il attractive. The wholesome
IMMIGRATION of its air and waters
is matter of universal acknowl.
edgement. And who can contsm.
plate the loneliness of its land
scape views without feelings Of ad.
miration and pleasure
But do all the people who ought
to he especially interested in Gov
ington's welfare cooperate with
Nature rs well rs they might, in
the effort to make the town o Gen.
ter OF health and pleasure?
The friendly stranger notes the
mastering of many of the resident
population into clans with social
antagonisms, which tend to sicken
the corporate body aud mar the
face which should, unconsciously,
be its cwn advertisement OF innate
beallh aud beauty.
What is the remedy required?
Is it Mind? There is no brig lit.
or in the lnnd-none more CHEEKY
in the world than that Of Coving-
tor.
Is it Heart? There is none more
kind, none more full of generous
feeling. than the heart of this place.
Is it Chivalry? No; for the
Knights of the Crusaders them
selves might well have recruited
their ranks from valor like that of
st. Tammany.
Is it Beauty? Beauty! why.
bless you. no; for Covington has
its sweet women and maiden tLrong
as gracious and lovely and good as
the best and fairest the sun can
shine upon in the worldly round.
What, then, is the remedy best
suited to tho case?
l beg to prescribe:
Reflection, one scrrple.
Common sense, one grain.
Good will, two drachms,
Milk of human kindness. three
ounces.
Mix. Dose, all in one draught,
before breakfast.
The Medical Faculty will, no
doubt, recognize the importance OF
this prescription, especially when
its wonderful efficacy shall be seen
il the healing hereby guaranteed.
A remarkable opening in the visual
organ will at once be experienced.
It vii! be seen that dislikes pro-
coed from MISUNDERSTANDING; that
warm heart may sometimes lie
for time benumbed under cover
OF cold exterior, and that better
acquaintance reveals beauties of
character never thought to exist
l think there are many. strangers
and citizens, who are glad with me
that "E. D. L." came SO pleasantly
to the front i'll the FARMER last
week. He must he right gallant
fellow and happy man. As q
friend, too, he points out fault.
