Communicated.

Landolph PendI eton. of Assumption.
NApoLEoNv1LLE, La, Sept. g, 1885.
Our old friend, the president Of the sixth
ward Republican club, arrived here from
New Orleans on Wednesday, the 23rd inst,
from his employment in the U. s. Mint CIV
en- him for his faithfulness to the Repub-
licap party. He reports a good many re-
moyals since the change in the Federal adj
ministratiQp, himself among the number,
not for any neglect of duty Oh his part, but
simply because he happened to be one of
those who are classed as Republican lead
ers. Mr.. Pendleton does not take his dis
charge hard, but with greater determine
ton to stand firm to his party principles.
On last Sunday, the 9th inst, he called to-
gether meeting of his constituents and
after delivering al able address proceeded
to organize his forces for the coming Con-
gressional election of 1888, which, though
many months off, is nevertheless being pre-
pared for by the far-seeing politician, He
is cordially greeted by his people and they
promise to stand by him with greater firm
ness in the future.

Splendid blankets for sugar-house use,

Mr.. and Mrs. 9. T. Sawyer, with their in
FAINT son, and Mr.. r. p. Allain and his
charming daughters, Misses Lie and Ida,
left Donaldsonville Wednesday, on the AL
ice Leblanc, en- route to New Orleans, where
they will reside henceforth. The little
steamer being unprovided with facilities
for the entertainment of SO many lady
passengers, Capt. Leblanc and Clerk Alba
their staterooms to the ladies,
who were charmed by the courtesies ex-
tended them throughout the trip. The
many friends of the two families viewed
their departure with sincere regret, and
while the CHIEF participates in this feeling
to the last degree, we hope the change will
result to their advantage and that they will
find naught but happiness and prosperity
in their new homes.

tivered by Dr.. J. B. Walker of New Orleans
at Hook and Ladder Hall, last Monday
evening, for the benefit Of the Methodist
Church, was quite we'll attended and proved
source of much interest and amusement
for all who heard it. The subject, "Mar-
fiage and marriages" was handled in an
attractive manner by tho learned divine
and the discourse was enlivened in great
measure by amusing anecdotes of the Doc
tors own experience, related in a manner
particularly pleasing to the whole audience
committee Of ladies, headed by Mrs. J..
Palmer and Mrs. J. B. Quimby, had pre-
pared bopntifal supply of light refresh
ments, including cake, ice cream, coffee,
etc, and when the lecture was over the au-
dience repaired to the supper room adioin-
ing the hall and did full justice to the
spread. The neat little sum of forty dol
lars was realized from the entertainment
and the ladies are highly pleased with the
result. DR.. Walker left for New Orleans
Tuesday morning, by the 8 o'clock train,
Intending to hasten on from.there to Ocean

That Road Controversy.

Whatever may be the differences of opin-

is no disputing the fact that the road to take
when you want to find the best goods at the
lowest prices leads direct to Cheap Tony's,
corner of Mississippi street and Railroad
Avenue, Donaldsonville. He defies compe-
tition in every line and particularly in hats,
of which he has heavy stock, comprising
all the latest New York and Western styles.

The skating rink assembly rsday
evening was we'll patronized, quite large
number of ladies and gentlemen being in
atten dance. We are informed that On &C
count of the departure of several members
of the band. whose work during the ap-
preaching grinding season necessitates
their presence in other localities, next
Thursdays entertainment will be the last
one for some time. It is to be regretted
that some means can not be devised by
which the skating assemblies could be con-
tinued through the winter, as the weather
is just becoming pleasant for such exercise.
Won't some energetic person find some
way by which the rink could be kept open
and thus afford our pleasure loving young
folks the opportunity of enjoying this
agreeable exercise in its proper season?

SUGAR SQUlBs.-The first sugar planter
in this parish to begin grinding is Mr.. Alex
Marchand of the left bank, who started his
mill on Thursday and has made thirty six
barrels of syrup of fair quality. portion
of the product has already been shipped to
New Orleans and the balance will go down
to- morrow. The juice is said to weigh 107.
Grinding will begin next Monday, the 5th
inst, on Mr.. Soaring Taylor's St. Emma
plantation, this parish, and on Kock Bros
Belle Alliance place, Assumption. There
are large cane crops ON both places, Belle
Alliance having 1850 acres to grind. We
are informed that test made on the latter
place last week showed the weight Of the
juice to be 108 degrees.
On the 18th inst, number of sugar-mills
in Ascension will get under way, including
those of Messrs. Mccall Bros, Evan Hall
Place: D. F. Kenner, Tureaud and Bowdon

While the cane is at present quite green,
it will rapidly ripen under the influence of
the favorable weather now prevailing, and

sidered tlattering.

Intellect and Manners.


There is less danger that the intelligent
country boy or girl, with a taste for books
and some opportunities for study and
reading-there is less danger that such an
one will not be fitted to meet the college
bred youth on equal intellectual grounds
than there is that they will feel themselves
at a disadvantage in the subtler ways
which may be somewhat nebulously
designa ed as manners. For it is manner
more than learning that pre-determines
social grades and castles. Give boy
address and accomplishments, says
Emerson land you give him the mastery
of palaces and fortunes wherever he goes
He has not the trouble of earning or owning
them; they solicit him to enter and
possess.
And again: There are certain manners
which are learned in good society of that
force that if a person have them he or she
must be considered, and is everywhere
welcome though without beauty or
wealth or genius. Now there is no
reason why this subtle. all-pervading
power of manner should not be just as
much part of the country as of the city
