Arkansas ladies' journal. (Little Rock, Ark.) 1884-1886, 1885-05-23

THE novel method below adopted by
Judge Gayarre is certainly an odd and
frank method to say the least.
Mr.. Charles Gayarre is a unique speci
men of the ofice-seeking genus. He has
sent his application to President Clevo-
land for the naval office of New Orleans
through the press. His letter stating his
qualifications bears abundant traces of an
original and independent mind. He re-
counts the various local Offices he has
filled with credit to himself and the State,
and in referring to his undertaking De
mocracy, says he has for fifty years voted
the Democratic ticket, although, at times,
with great conscientious scruples in there
by supporting some corrupt and VIGOROUSLY
incompetent candidates in every respect"
No one can doubt his Democracy after
that. But he does Mt claim office on the
ground of his partisan fidelity. He rests
his application con more elevated ground
that of bis being one of the well.known
representatives of the literature of the
South who should be entitled proportion
atey to as much recognition as the repre-
sentatiyes of the literature of the North,
on whom official patronage has always
been systematically and property bestowed
without distinction of party" As the
author of an excellent history of Louisiana,
Judge Gayarre we pronounce to be en-
titled to the naval office at New Orleans.

carried the piece through successfully. At
the close both were called before the cur

The Good Old Times.

above the age Of fifty years but who looked
back with fond recolIections to some past
period of his life in which everything was
immensely better than it is now. This
delightful era, in which everything bore
the color of the rose, and which had not
yet begun to be overcast with the gray
autumn days, in an enchanted land, hal
cyon period, familiarity known to them as
the good old times.
Then, the grass was greener, and the
flowers brighter, and men were better, and
women fairer, and the world generally was
many notches above its present degree of
excellence. As far as the present is con-
cerned, it is nothing. The world has
sadly refrigerated since those good old
times. Life has grown colder; its paths
have become narrower, friends are fewer,
old associations have gone, the new that
spring up are vastly inferior; as modern
poet has it:
Age looks on life as down o colonnade,
Where stand the years in shouldered rows ar
rayed;
From which sweet hints of buried time ascend
And things look largest at the farther end"
Yes, the world is always signing for
those good old times. It would give a
great deal if it eoald only recall them and
live them over again. In point of fact
they were not though to be such extremely
good times while they were in existence.
shouldn't wonder if they were really
thought to be hard times, and tough times,
or troublous times, as long as they were
on; but the moment they got away, and
the old order changed, yielding place to
new, people woke up to the fact that after
all they were not such hard times, or tough
times as they used to be thought on the
contrary, what good times they were and
oh, if we just could have them back, to
have chance to show our appreciation of
them, which we didn't do as long as they
were around. This enigma in the human
mind is thus Enthusiastically commented
on in that greatest Of elcgies in memoriam
by Lord Alfred Baron Tennyson D'Eyn-
court:
on, is it that the haze and grief
Makes former gladness seem so great;
The lowness of the present tale
That lets the past in this relief
;" Or that the past will always win
A glory from its being far;
And orb into the perfect star
We saw not while we moved therein.
However it may be, from whatever it
may DrOcnp1 tho foot c4orJ
