a Reply TO The Bulletin.
LoeTowN. IA. Nav 20 lsS6.

LoaTowN, La. May 20. 1856.
Editor telegraph
You will confer favor upon me and
many Of your subscribers by granting me
small space in your columns to notice an
unmerited and unjust attack on Capt, A.
A. Lacy, the present representative of our
parish, published in the Monroe Bulletin
of the 10Th inst.
In the first place would like to know in
what way has sMr. Lacy failed in the dis
charge of said duties, or rendered himself
so Objectionable as to warrant such treat
ment at the hands ofthe Official Journal of
our parish.
The bill that Mr.. Lacy proposed to intro
duce was fully discussed in Joint legisla-
tive caucus. prior to it's Offering in the
House, and was sustained by an immense
majority. The reasons for the necessity of
such bill have been fully explained more
than once by the ablest and staunchest
Democrats in the State; and it has been
clearly demonstrated that those parishes
for whose benefit the present system was
adopted have prospered and their financial
interests have steadily improved. The
editor of the Bulletin knows this withont
being reminded of the fact, and we are
constrained to the belief that had anv
other representative proposed such a bill
there would have been no criticism on his
part.
Why this antipathy TO our member Ia
it because Of his earnest and constant
efforts with the Democratic party in the re-
demption of our State in the dark davs Of
radicalism, when he freely and willing
risked his all for the good of his party and
people? Or is it because of an ever present
and painful reminder of his devotion to
'he Lost Cause" debarring him of the
pleasure at times of visiting and associa-
tlng with his friends and constituency, as
1t is his desire to do?
AS for Mr.. Lacy's nomination being a
surprise, there were certainly but very few
who did not know who would fill the diff
erent places on the Democratic ticket long
before the nomination. If his nomination
was such surprise as to call fourth such
severe criticism at this time from the Bull
letin, have no doubt that in the event of
second, which is not at all unlikely, the
Bulletin would give him the benefit of the
entire paper, in which case Mr.Lacy would
need no further efforts in his behalf.
In conclusion would remind the young
editor of the Bulletin that there are many
things for him to learn yet, and one in par
ticular is, that he should be more circum-
spect in impugning the motives, and ma
hgning a g9od citizen and Democrats
name. -

A Cunning Puss.

"Purr, purr, purr!" Pussy sat on
the kitchen window-sill with her eyes
half shut, and purred, and purred. She
looked very sleepy indeed; but she was
more sly than sleepy. She was an
Angora cat, and very handsome. She
had long, silky white fur, and fringed
ears, and bushy tail like squirrel.
She often curled it over her back, just
as squirrel would.
Pussy was in the kitchen a great
deal, and she saw the cook make GUS
tards, and puddings, and cake. She
wanted some. She meant to have
some. She noticed that, whenever a
certain bell was rung, the cook left the
kitchen and stayed out for several
minutes. The bell-cord was within
her reach if she stood up on her hind
feet. 1t was not where the cook would
see it. Pussy slyly pulled the cord
with her fofe-paws, and rang the bell.
The cook went to see what was wanted;
and pussy devoured custard in great
haste.
Sly Pussy! When the cook back she
lay in corner, and seemed fast asleep.
She played this trick over and over
again. But after while some one hid
and watched while the cook was out
and saw Pussy ring the bell.-Ow Lit

TRUST AND WORK.

Do Not Seek the Dross Of Earth More.
and Love It Better, Than the Gold Of
Heaven. us
Do your work, but do it in quietness
and confidence; do your duty, but do
it without this corroding anxiety; and
He who even in the desert spreads His
table for the birds, He who clothes the
flowers in the embroideries Of beauty,
will feed and clothe You. That trust
which unconsciously Gods humber
creatures show, that do ye show re-
flectingly and consciously. Trust in
God for these lower things, because He
gives, and will give, and has given, to
you, higher things than these. Do not
degrade and drag down your life in
the mire by the spirit of mean, selfish,
grudging, untrustfpl accumulation. II
you seek first the Kingdom of God, sll
these other things. or things transcend
emily better than these, shall be added
unto you. There is nothing wrong in
your trade and your merchandise, and
your daily work to earn your own liv-
ing; that is altogether right; SO f.r
from being a rival business to these,
the seeking of the Kingdom of Heaven
is Divine law which should regulate,
Divine temper which should pervade
and transtigure them. Only for the
sake of your own souls, for the sake OF
all that makes life worth living. for the
sake alike ofyour temporal and eternal
happiness, do not seek the dross Of
earth more, and love it better, than the
gold of Heaven. Let conscience and
faith into every necessary act of your
daily life. Learn to discriminate tho
transcendent. Learn to feel habitually
that the life, the true life, the spiritual
life, is more than food, and the body
than raiment. Let justice, goodness,
purity. be your aim, not the selfish
scramble of scheming competition, not
the brutal appetenceso of sensual desire.
Do not let your daily necessities blunt
the edge Of your ideal aspirations, do
not sink into groveling appetites or
money-making machines. Man lives,
indeed, by bread, but he does not live
by bread alone. e.-Archdeaco,s Farrar.

Where Prince Bismarck Receives HI
Loftiest Inspirations.

Where Prince Bismarck Receives His
Loftiest Inspirations.
Bismarck loves the country, though
most of his life has been passed in
cities. "What l like best" he once
said, sis to be in well-greased top
boots, far away from civilization" 1t
is said that once, while at school in
Berlin, and walking in the suburbs, he
came across plow. His homesickness,
expressed itself in tears. In one of his
earlier letters he wrote: II am quite
homesick for country, woodside and
laziness, with the indispensable addi-
ton of loving wives and trim, well
behaved children" Phrenologists say
that one of the largest organs on Bis
marck's massive head Is that which IN
dicates his love of children.
The German statesman Is never so
happy, say his friends, as when he is
gazing at beautiful landscape, or
walking about his farm.
"Bclieve me-" his wife once said, with
natural exaggeration, "a turnip inter-
ests him more than all your politics.
His friends point to Lenbach's por-
UTalt Oh DlSuldTck, winch uduSS III uHc
National Gallery at Berlin, as the one
in which his features assume their no
blest expression. 1--WE were engaged
in conversation" said Bismarck, de-
scribing how that expression was
caught by the artist, land happened
to look upwards at a passing flight Of
birds. Suddenly Lenbach exclaimed:
Hold hard! that will do, capitaliy,
keep quite STILL and forthwith made
| the sketch" s ,.r.l-l. tl.f
The Chancellor, when at Varzin, his
country estate, banishes the cares oi
state and becomes farmer and forester.
In ''well-greased boots" with staff in
hand, he wanders about the woods and
fields, noting nature and his farmers.
He takes lessons in practical political
economy from his tenants, and ques-
tions his laborers. The result is that
he is an evenly-balanced statesman,
and talks in Parliament about farming
and forestry with such good sense and
knowledge as to command the respect
of practical men, Yoath's Companion.

tells us that 'whatever our life has
been, tits something better not to be-"
1t is He who has shown
"That in Q boundiess universe
IL boundloss better. boundless worse"
the former even more than the latter.
Il IL the Christ of Easter rather than
of Gethsemane and Calvary that is the
hope of the world, shedding light upon

Whatever crazy sorrow saith,
No life that breathes with human breath
Has evertruly loneed for death.
",Tis life whereof our nerves are scant,
life, not death, for which we pant;
More life. and fuller that want"
If Easter day does not answer these
questionings, and satisfy these aspira-
tions-if "Christ be not risen"-then
truly is our faith vain and the splendor
of to-day's ritual and the glory of to-
days music are but mockcries, and the
dust of the noble enthusiast Of Galilee
is only the last proof needed that mans
life is vain shadow, which no sum
shine can illumine. But that better
voice of our own nature which cries
mon onnis MORTAR" II shall not all
die," is more in unison with the Easter
anthems and the voices Of the spring,
both in the kingdom Of grace and Of
nature, than with the materialism that
would make the soul Of Shakespeare
annihilated by an attack of indigestion.
