The Westminster correspondent of the
Atlanta Consultation, writing from that
olace under date of the 10th inst, says:
Henry Howell, painter from Anderson,
S. c., who has been practicing his calling
here for the past few months, was taken
early last night with a.sudden and severe
fit of insanity. On going into the room
for the night, he was heard to fall down
on the floor and utter a cry as If some
thing were wrong. Persons who entered
the room in response to his cry, soon dis
covered his wild condition, and on re-
ring from the room closed the door,
whereupon the maniac forced himself
through glass window, smashing it to
pieces and falling to the ground outside.
A number of men having congregated he
was finally secured, after an extraordi-
nary exhibition of almost superhuman
strength. Yesterday evening Howell
had personal encounter with a fellow
painter and the excitement resulting from
This, together with an inherited tendency
to insanity, is believed to have brought
on the attack last night. He is resting

The Shreveport Times, of the s1st

Cruelty to Convicts'' i'll Louisiana, as
follows:
"The State should repeal its convict
lease, and remove this troublesome
question from the realm ct discussion.
1t stnks in the nostrils of the people.
1t is out of accord with wise, conserva-
tive principles OF government, IL is a
blot upon the civilization of the State.
1t is fixed pillar of shame, looking
down upon every good man in Louis
lana.
Let us abolish it, and receive the
plaudts of all people ia all the States
who care as much for mercy as they dc
for money"
And we join with the Times in re-
questing the Legislature to abolish the
convict lease system. Let the State
work its own convicts and save the
money that is now made by contrac.
tors. 1t is nothing but natural for con
tractors to work prisoners under then

How Italians Cure the Earache
London Society.

A remedy, one unequaled indeed for
earrache, is that in use among he sail
ors aud bathers is that at Niaresgio
and Leghorn, and indeed all along the
coast OF that part OF Italy. A piece of
linen is spread with melted beeswax-
the purer the better-and then rolled
tightly into a cornucopia shape, the
small end of which is introduced into
the patients ear as he lies down. The
cornucopia should not be less than
three, four. or even five inches long.
Flannel cloths are then laid over the
head and face, the cornucopia is set
alight, and burns slowly as long as the
patient can bear it, until burned quite
near the face. when it is removed from
the ear. This proceeding gives almost
instant relief, and if the pain happens
to have been caused by the presence OF
any foreign substance in the ear it will
come away with the cornupia.

tenths OF the people of this city.
They are approved by ali who desire

They are approved by the sound
Democrats who wish to uphold the
prestige and power of the Democratic
party, aud who know that party cannot
long survive the practices in elections
which have become so notorious III New

They are approved by the iaw-abid

such outrages upon the elective fran
chise as have been resorted to here to
foist the Ring nominees into power
cannot and will not be tolerated, and Il
persistence in the same will bring on
an armed and organized resistance to
usurpation.
They are approved by all who do not

Southwest Louisiana.
TilneS-DenOcrat.

For the past three years, ever since
the first colony of Western farmers
settled in Southwest Louisiana, inqul-
ries have been pouring in from all por-
tons Of the country about that region,
its soil, its crops, etc. The letters pub
lished by the Times-D Democrat have
increased this feeling of interest, and
there is probably no portion OF the
Union being more inquired after.
The Department of Agriculture, the
State Bureau of immigration, the
State Immigration Agent have each
published large pamphlets on Louisiana,
dwelling, IN particular, on the South
west portion Of the State, which seems
to be attracting the most attention
from immigrants. Harper's thu Centu-
nv and the Southern Bivouac are all
publishing articles on Louisiana agri-
culture. Indeed, people everywhere
seem to have never been more enthu-
siastic or interested in this State than
lust now, as the numerous books ana
publications about it show.
During the past few months scores OF
persons have passed through this city
for Calcasieu, st. Landry, Lafayette
and Nermillion, for the purpose OF in
speeding these parishes, some with the
intention of settling there themselves,
others making the Investigations Tor
colonies that will move to Louisiana II
the report is favorable. OF letters,
scarcely day passes but We receive
half dozen or more, making inquiries
about the State.
Never did an immigration movement
begin under more suspicious crcum-
stances; and, if properly cultiyated-for
the land is all that is claimed for it,
cheap, fertile and salubrious-the
present movement will fill the nnoccu-
pied portions of the State with popu-
lation of the most desirable imml-
grants, thrifty, energetic farmers.

1t seems that the Governor, in his
recent message to the legislature,
recommends the abolition OF grand iu-
ries. The grand jury of the parish of
Orleans replied in substance "that il
some grand juries were indiscreet that
is no argument against the system to
abolish the Office, because of the short
comings or even abuses of those hold
ing positions would soon break up our
government, and it is in the same line
as farming out the duties of State and
city officials" Between the Governor
and the Legislature, the people have
been robbed Of the right to elect their
Police Juries, and now he wants the
Grand Jury system taken away from
them. II the State government be al
lowed to continue these depredations
upon the rights of the people, it will
become as despotic as the government
of Russia.
