The Final Winding Up.

Those defeated politicians who mourn
over departed hopes and weep for bur-
led expectations, may find consolation
in the fact that the date for the end of
earthly affairs has been definitely fixed.
Lenardo Arentino, an Italian prophet,
makes the announcement that the dis
solution will begin on the 18th of Nov
ember, and last fifteen days. The fol-
lowing blood-freezing programme has
beer arranged for the occasion: First
day-The sea will overflow. Second
day-The water will penetrate the SOIL
Third day-Death of fresh water fish.
Fourth day-Death of sea animals.
Fifth day-Death of the birds. Sixth
day-Fall of .houses and buildings.
Seventh day-Fall of the rocks. Eight
day-Earthquake. Nineth day-Fall
OF the mountains. Tenth day-Men
become dumb. Eleventh day-The
Graves will open. Twelfth day-Rain
Of stars. Thirteenth day Death of all
mankind. Fourteenth day-Destruc-
ton of the heavens and earth by fire.
Fifteenth day--General resurrection and
last judgment.
These prophets do not agree entirely
concerning this great event. Here is
one Hurst, residing in Georgia, who has
fixed. up a different programme. He
says the first step in the dissolution will
be taken next year, when the moon
will turn to blood and the sun cease to
shine; but the denoument, when the
earth will burn, will not occur until
1882. AS patriotic citizens, we should
pin our faith to the American seer, and
turn our backs upon the macaroni-eat-
ing italian.

Rain Storm, Pursued By the Mob

LONDON, Oct. 24.-The Marquis of
Borne attempted to address meeting
Of the electors at Brentford to-day, in
the interest ofthe Liberals, hut ne had
hardly begun speaking when the crowd,
whose sympathies were strongly with
the Conservatives, begmto assail him
with rotten eggs and subject him to all
sorts of indignities. Some ofthe more
daring of the mob clambered onto the
platform and hustled the Marquis i'm a
lively manner, ending by smashing his
hat. The demonstration was SO threat
ening that the Marquis sought safety
in flight, and so precipitate was his de-
parture, that, notwithstanding the fact
that q heavy rain-storm prevailed at
the time he did not wait for his carriage.
but ran all the way to the railway sta
tion, bowling mob pursuing him the
meanwhile, and pelting him with all
sorts of missiles. Arriving at the
station he approximately caught a train
for London, or he might have received
more serious injury. His political op-
ponents next turned their attention to
his supporters, many of whom were
severely handled. They then took pos
session of the platform, and passed re-
solutions denunciatory of the Liberals,
and condemned, in strong terms, the
policy of that party. Brentford is in
the heart ola strong Conservative dis
trict.

Prof. HorsfOrd's Baking Powder. DR..
f. c. Goodrich, Aurusta, Ga, saws:

Il regard Horsford's Baking Powder as
healthful and nutritious, being composed of
phosphate acid and bi-carbonate of Soda
The excellence of this combination is so
universally commended by physicians and
chemists that my endorsement is simply
supertuous. would say, however, tn at acid
phosphate is now regarded even more i'm
portant as a constituent of food than as a
remedial agent. Bread made from unbolted
or Graham flour is more healthful than that
made from refined -four simply because the
latter has been deprived of the nutritious
phosphates. Horsford's Baking Powder
restores to the -four the phosphates removed
In the bolting process, and increases the food
properties of the bread by that amount.
Acid phosphate aids digestion. and nourishes
and invigorates the brain and nervus system,
and Fros. Horsford's method of supplying it
with our daily bread is certainly wonderful
triumph of scientific genius" mo

Lincoln Didn't Want JEFF Davis
[Ex-Secretary L. T. Usher.

1t was apparent to all who bore inti-
mate relations with Mr.. Lincoln, that
foreseeing the termination of the wal
by the submission of the insurgents,
his mind was seriously affected in con-
temptation of the new responsibilities
which would devolve upon him. His
speech grew more grave and his aspect
more serious. A short time before the
capitulati0n of Gen. Lee, Gen. Grant
had told him that the war must neces-
sarily soon come to an end, and wanted
to know of him whether he should try
to capture Jeff Davis, or let him escape
from the country if he would. He said.
"About that, told him the story of an
Irshman who had taken the pledge of
Father Mathew. He became terribly
thirsty and applied to a bartender for a
lemonade, and while it was being pre-
pared he whispered to him, and
couldn't we put a little brandy in it
unbeknown to meself?' I told Grant if
he could let Jeff Davis escape all unbe-
known to himself, to let him 60. l
didn't want him."

Democrats and Republicans.
[San Francisco News letter.


"How can ] tell Democrat from a
Republican, papa" asked little Billy
recently "My SON." answered the
parent, "if you see man with new
clothes and plug hat on, picking his
teeth in front of a first class hotel, who
last year struck yourffond father for
four bits for meal you are gazing on a
Democrat. If you observe man in the
faded shadow Of diagonal double
breasted coat, meandering turbidly into
a free lunch anda drink for Is cents
saloon, that man is a Republican. He
is putting in four years at hard labor-a
thing to which he is totally unaccus-
toned, and he doesn't expect to tap
Uncle Sans money chest any more un-
til 1888, when he will rush frantically
into the fight on the principal of affec-
ton for his country" "And these mild
hammered, quiet looking men, who look
so contented?" "These, my child, are
Republicans who swear that they voted
and worked for Cleveland and have
not been kicked out SO far"

insist on resignation. 1t is most
probable that they will be induced to
remain in Office just long enough to
round of the incomplete work of
legislation, and then announce q
dissolution.
1t is peculiarly unfortunate that
the government should have suffered
defeat at the present time, when
within sight of land, respecting the
settlement of external difficulties, in
which the country has been involved.
It is q consolation, however, to reflect
that her Majesty's present advisers
will retain control of affairs until she
has opened q new Parliament. There
is very little doubt but that, on the
ensuing appeal to the country, the
Liberals will be returned to power
with increased strength. The Adult
lamite Wings. who have precipitated
a dissolution, will find, doubtless,
that grateful country will not fail
to relegate them to political seclu-
sion in which they will find ample
time to mediate upon the compare
tive merits of reaction and progress.

j. Brown, convicted in Grant parish
Nov. 20, 1882. He was tried here by
change Of venue from Rapides parish,
and sentenced for ten years. which
was considered a light punishment
for murder. The special published
in the Picayune says the application
for his pardon is signed by a great
many citizens of Grant and Rapides
parishes. Several citizens of Grant,
who claim to have made inquiry in
the matter, say it is mistake about
the application being signed in this
parish, and they dislike to be put in
the attitude of soliciting the gov
ernor's clemency for criminals. The
prevailing sentiment in Grant is that
the pardoning power is too frequent

he wonld not have reached that num-

so it was neglected, and the FOOLS

reason we do not know; still the
word fools cap will remain for this

Cap, as name for size of paper,
has become attached to our fat cap,

nothing to do with foolscap, except
the similarity in name and size. The
