We have been positively inform
ed that Mr.. Frank Hoffman, would
sell or rent, cat exceedingly low
rates, his livery and feed stable.
The Cause for which Mr.. Hoff
mann wishes to retire from the llv
cry stable business is attributed to
the bad condition OF his health.
This is an excellent opportunity
for n who has money to invest
it in and obtain from it profitable
interest. The stable is situated on
jackson street, in the business por
ton of town, and as it is well known
here that Mr.. Hoffman, has made
himself a handsome income with
his stable, we e no reason why his
successor, ifhe be equally energet
ic, should not reap the same bene
fits.

A WELCOME ENTERPRISE Cap
tain Victor Sanders will commence

daux aud Grand Isle, the fine little
Steamer Sallie B:
He will arrive at Thibodaux ev
cry Monday and Thursday night,
with IA supply of fish and crabs for
the Thibodaux Market. On Fri
days the boat will remain at this
wharf all day. This will afford a
fine opportunity for our people to
obtain a weekly supply OF fish fol-
their tables.
Capt. Sanders should be encoa'
aged, as he desires to continue this
trade all the year round.
Look ont on Tuesday morning rol
your mess of fish.

The attention of sugar planters
is directed to the advertisement, III
another column, of MIR. john 5.
Mcdonald, patentee for the United
States, Cuba and England, of the
Automatic Hydraulic Pressure
Regulator, an apparatus for the ex
traction of the juice from the su-
gar cane.
Mr.. Mcdonald claims that this
machine is superior to all others
in every respect, as it saves times
labor, expense and worry to the
planter.
1t was awarded the gold medal
at the recent Exposition, in New
Orleans, and therefore must be
capable of performing all that Is
claimed for it, and we have nc
doubt but that, should the planters
see proper to test its competency, il
will be found a very desirable
machine.

The New Director of the Mint.

The numerous friends of Mr.. Ga
briel Montegut will be pleased to
learn thai he has been appointed
Superintendent of the New Orleans
Mint.
For tue last ten years Mr.. Monte
gut has been the acknowledged
leader of the Terrebonne democra
CIV. Not only had he to contend
with overwhelming numbers OF re
publicans in his parish, bit also
with IA set of Local so called demo
Gratis of the Reform type who were
at all times ready to coalesce
with Republicans, to sign bonds to
quality colored republican officials
and who setting up independent
judgments above party nomlna
tons secretly voted for Beattie
against Wilt in 1879, for Steven
sou against McEuery in April 1884,
and very naturally and openly vo
ted for the Bia,ne and Logan cleo
tors in November 1884.
With such odds against him MIR.
Mcntegut all the while maEfully
stood by his c%olors, and right no
bly, did he marshal his little spar
tan band Of democrats, eleven hun
dred strong, at each recurring cleo
ton. His faith in the Democracy
never tagged. his devotion to par
ty never wavered, aud to-day his
consistency receives a we'll merited
reward.
Mr.. Montegut has the proud salts
faction OF knowing that he did not
apply for Office, but that his immt
diate friends were the first to sin
ole him out as a suitable person
whose party services deserved a re
ward, aud he mist moreover be
proud to know that his appointment
was asked by every member of the
congressional delegation by thu
State administration and by every
prominent democrat in the thlr(
congressional district.
He is honest, he is capable, he Is
a chivalrous scion of the good ole
creole stock.
The appointment of such gentle
man to federal Office in LOulSlan;
will invariably meet with toe hea
ty approval OF every democrat II
the State.

CLAY o. BADEAUX.

Never has the rider on the pale
horse made such frequent visits to
ThibOdaux.
On Wednesday last, July s,
1885, his victim was Clay O. Ba
deanA, a young man, who, Il few
weeks ago was the picture of 70
bust health and manly strength,
with apparent prospect of long
years OF usefulness before him.
He was young MAI beloved
and esteemed by every II who
knew him, whose ways were those
Of dignity and gentleneSs, whose
life was living exemplitication OF
an honorable man, and a true chris
tian.
UnasSliming and kind ; genial
in conversation. attentive to his
daily duties, he passed through the
busy marts OF man, in peace with
all, attracting friends wherever he
went by the merit that virtue ever
receives, and leaving along his path
way only pleasant memories.
Called away III his youth renders
the atiliction more severe upon the
venerable parents, brothers, sister
and friends, who lament to-day the
loss of one whose love and friend
ship they had hoped to enjoy
for many years to come.
Their sorrow is not that of those
who have no hope orthe Christians
faith points them to a happy meet
ing in the hereafter and will sus
tain them in the great sorrow
which au all.wise God has seen
good 10 place upon them.
Gu Thursday the remains of the
deceased were placed away to res
in the quiet shadows of st. Joseph.

RESURRECTION of the dead.

The venerable bnilding Oh the
corner of Maiu and Green SITS. has
finally yielded to The progressive
desires o. man, and been RACED to
the earth to give place to bnild
ings more suitable to the wants OF
the day.
There is little worthy Of notice
in it at this time except its antiQui
ty, and the "reminiscences connect
ed with its history.
The building was erected nearly
three fonrthS OF II century ago.
Tradition says it WAS first occu
pied by Mr.. Donnaud whom some
of the elder citizens of the town re
member.
Mr.. Donnaud occupied it for
a residence and a jewelers. store
III which he repaired clocks, watch
es, jewelry, SC. for the primitive
settlers OF this district of country.
Mr.. Donnand may have built the
building. and there is but little
doubt that It was the Oldest build
ing i'll ThibodauX.
Tradition also says that the first
white child born in Thibodaux was
born in this building.
Previous to the war it was used
principally as Il dwelling in which
numerous families, resided at vari
Gus times.
Since the war it has been used
for IA grocery and provision store.
When it was fist built, one, Oh ell
te,iug had to go up two or three
steps. but of late, he who entered
had to take a step down ward.
This proves %indisputably tina,
Thibodaux is Il rising town.
1t is remarkable also, us being
the place where a distinguished a
derman of Thibodaux, once mistool
"a cabbage head tor his own hea,
and carried it Oft, only to find hi
error when brought before tn
courts to explain the mystery.
This venerable building has man.

Mr.. L. V. Rivierc, the owner {
