temptations Of a Reporters Life.

Another temptation of the news
paper profession is the great allure
ment thot surrounds them. Every
occupation and profession has temp
tations peculiar to itself, end tho
newspaper profession is not an ex-
ception. The great draft, as you
know, is on the nervous forces, and
the brain is racked. The laundering
political speech must read well for
the sake of the party, and so the re-
porter or the editor has to make it
read well, although every sentence
was a catastrophe to the English
language. The reporter must hear
all that an inaudible speaker, who
thinks it is vulgar to speak out, says;
and it must be right the next morn
ing or the next night in the papers,
though the night before the whole
audience sat with its hands before
its ears, in vain trying to catch it.
This man must go through killing
night work. He must gointo heated
assemblages and into unventilated
audience-room that are enough to
take the life out of him. He must
visit court-rooms which are almost
always disgusting with rum and to
bacco. He must expose himself at
the fire. He must write in f9tid
alleyways. Added to all that, he
must have hasty mastication and ir
regular habits. To bear up under
this tremendous nervous strain they
are tempted to artificial stimulus,
and how many thousand have gone
down under the pressure God only
knows.-Dr. Talmage.

EDITORS COURIER /:

Very hot weather has prevailed dur
ing the past two weeks, with one or two
showers, hardly enough to lay the dust.
What was left of crops by the June
floods is to- day i'll IA fairls good condi,
ton. On the Black Lake Plantation,
we find some very good corn. Cotton
will make fully thirds of crop,
even that that was OverfiOwed. Some
of it will pan out nearly a bale to the
acre. Those living in the Black Lake
neighborhood are hopeful, and look to
the future to bring renewed and better
returns in crops and all farm products.
A free ferry has been established OH
the Cocodrie, for the accommodation of
those travelling from Bayon Beuf to
Chicot; and let me say this ferry is
quite convenience to large section
of country. Mr.. Dossman has reftted
his mill since the overflow, and is now
turning out lumber with rush. We
note also that teams are almost daily
passing hauling lumber out from the
saw mill situated some miles further
/ back in the pine districts.
/ Mr.. Geo S. Singleton. the go-ahead
proprietor of Black Lake Plantation, is
having brick kiln of 100, 900 put up
and burned, for plantation use. This
enterprising gentleman has already in
the last twelve months had no less than
twelve neat cottages built for the ten
ants and lease holders on his lnrge
estate.
He has at considerable expense puI
up neat church building for the ac-
eommodation of the colored people on
| the place, to be used as we'll for schoo
and divine service.
