Why are the impeachment proceedings
against Judge Theo. Fonteliep being 80
vigorously prosecuted at this late day,
whom he has been ont Of Office over two
years7 Is it because he has committed
such grievous breaches Of Law and good
morals that public welfare demands he be
made an example of? or because it is con-
sidered necessary to continued Democratic
supremacy in the Republican parish and
district Of Iberia that he should be disfran-
chised? We think decided preponderance
of opinion will incline in the direction sug-
easted by the latter question and that there
will be widespread concurrence in the dec
laration of the Morgan City Free Press
that !" the proceeding is most coyardly."

We see by recent issue of the Donald

ciate editor. The CH1Er is universally
oonoeded to be the best country paper in

sociated With her husband in the editorial
management Of the paper, its readers may

facile and trenchant pen Of Mrs. Bentley
will greatly add to the merits of that spicy
paper. This writer is personally acquainted
with the lady in question, and can truthful
ly say If so much of her time we're not ia
ken up in the raoaulating of the vocal or
Rans Of the little Bentleys, and she could
dss?ote more of il to literary pursuits, she
would soon become one of the shining

Not at Home. "

There is standing discussion of the
morality of the phrase mot at home -
and the opinions ofreally truthful per-
sons are as widely apart upon this mat
ter as the poles.
Many contend, as it is generally
accepted phrase in society, and means
only that the person called upon is not
receiving, is not untruthful, and nc
one is deceived thereby.
Others, again, hold that as ii is moi
the absolute truth its use is productive
of harmful results to the integrity OF
the minds of children aud servants.
The formula used in polite German
society, where calls of ceremony are
made in the forenoon, is, II am very
sorry, but madam has not yet made
her toilet"
This explanation is always accepted
kindly.
Here, however, where morning calls
are the exception, this form cannot be
employed.
The Gordian knot, however, could
be cut in very simple manner with
out wounding either the sense of truth
fulness or the feelings of the caller.
When it is impossible to receive, the
servant should be explicitly told to in
form callers that her mistress sis moi
receiving to-day"
| Never allow a servant to say in re
sponse to the query as to whether the
mistress is at nome, 81 don't know,
but | will see."
Give a servant instructions before
callers arrive, and let the information
be conveyed in a set form of words.
