A Note OF Wrning.

The Board of Alderman, of
Natchez, Miss, at a recent meeting
passed the following resolution
UNANIMOUSLY:
Resolved, that Il committee of
three members of this board be
appointed to correspond with tho
incorporators of the Louisiana,
Arkansaw and Fort Scott Railroad
(now spoken of as the North and
South Rallrcad) Company, with
view of securing the passage
through the city of Natchez, of
the railroad now being built from
Fort Scott, Kansas, TO Alexan-
drIa.
The Ndtchtz Banner sees the great
benefit of such a road, and asks
the business men of Natchez To
advise with the committee and
strive to secure the road. Natchez
has much more wealth than Alex
andrla and can offer more induce
ments than we can. Let us there
fore be up and doing and do what
we are going to do quickly, or We
may get badly left.-1o,ca Talk.

future of Alexandria is assured.
1t is only Il question of time when
a railroad will be built through
the Northwestern part OF Louisiana
opening up the iron deposits and
vast pineries in Wlnn, Claiborne,
Blenville and other parishes i'm
this State. This road would not
be a trnnk line but would seek
a terminus in this directionto con-
meet with roads running to New
Orleans. If the Louisiana, Ar
kansaw and Fort Scott road, which
Is prjectcd to Monroe and Colum-
bia is prevailed upon ta come to
Alexandria, there is no doubt but
what this Northwestern road will
terminate Mt Alexandra.
Another road that would como
here by securing the L., A. and
+. S. Il. r. Is the Natchcz, Red
River and and Texas Railroad,
now completed to Trinity river.
1t will never be built to Alexandria
unless the former road is put
through.
The Texas and Pacific road has
cut off the trade of Alexandria
and our only hope is to become
railroad center. This all of our
citizens admit, and we are conf
dent that they will not throw away
this hope by refusing to support
the railroad tax.
The town of Pincvllle would
come in for Its share of prosperity
provided Alexandria should have
an upward boom. We have seen
but very few towns situated oppo-
site each other on river, but
what the prosperity of one was
divided exualIy with the other.

An Efficient Road Law.

legislator who can and will Franc
Il road law that will give the people
good roads An efficient system
is the Eldorado of legislation: it
is ever searched for, but never
found. Men have brought States
out of the deps ofh financial de-
preston who recoil in selt-contess-
ed defeat when brought face to face
with the dread necessity of a really
effective. road system.
What Is the trouble in this case !?
Why is it that otherknotiy prob
lens of legislation are solved, but
this remains is far from solution
as the cause of the spots on the
sun?
one great difficulty lies in the
fact that the office of road over
seer is thankless one, enjoying
none of the "pabulum otficli," but
revelllng in the curses and male
dictions of the masses who see in
road duty only check upon their
freedom as American citizens.
No man likes to work for nothing !;
PATRIOTISM, it is true, Is of fine
appearance on paper; it loses its
brllliancy and lustrc when the
spade and shovel are In sight. The
fact that the labor required is not
voluntarily offered, legally rcqulr-
ed, makes road working offensive
to the bulk of the people, and road
oversecrs do not like to incur the
ill-will of their neighbors by strict
IL enforcing the law.
Another difficulty is found in the
dislnclInatIon of every good citi-
zen to report to the grand juries
dereliction of duty on the part of
oyerseers. Such action is usually
regarded more as an exhibition
of personal ill-will to the official
than as the performance of duty
to the people.
And eyeu i'm the rare instances
when such derelictions of duty are
reported, the grand juries, upon
which, perhaps road oyerseer or
two may be found, fail to indict
the lax official: Or, If they afraid
to risk his popularity with the road
overseers and friends, permit the
indictment to quietly slumber un-
til it is lost IN an everlasting sleep.
Thus 1T will be seen that there
are difficulties lnnumerable in the
way of IN etiicIcnt system of road
law. These difficulties might be
removed, If men would have the
pluck to do their full duty acit +
zens, but rs the millennium has
not come, and there are no signs
on the moon of its early arrival,
it is too much to expect of weak
| humanity.
A few men in each parish who
| would rther be right than be pop
| uIar might cause revolution IN
the carrying out of our present
road law; and If that could be re-
inforccd by n set of public officials
who would rather be right they be
reelected, the problem would be
readily solved.
As the matter stands to-day
there is no fountain head of rc-
sponsibllity there arc too many
avenues of official escape from the
duties imposed.
We would be pleased to have
this matter fully discussed IN oul

Considering the Vetoes.

WASHINGTON, July G.-The house
committee on invalid pensions considered
the presidential veto messages at its meet
ing to-day. Representative Conger called
up the bill for the relief of John Luce,
whose claim is based on injuries received
from being thrown forward on the pommel
of his saddle, but after discussion it was
decided that the bill did not embody a
case strong enough to pass over the veto
and it was dropped. Probably all the
vetoed pension bills which originated in
the enate with one exception will be
reported from the committee on pensions
with recommendations that they do pass,
the presidents veto Notwithstanding. One
exception will be covered by the new bill,
the bill vetoed being defective in conse.
quence of a clerical error. The case OF
Harriet Welsh is one in respect to which
the president said: Though this widow
admits that prior TO her marriage with
the deceased soldier, she had married
another man whom she could only say she
believed to be dead" The senate com
mittee says in its report: mo question
IS raised in evidence as to legality of the
marriage which seems to have resulted. -

The liver is the largest sccreting organ
in the human body, and the bile which it
secretes is more liable to vitlation and
instruction from its proper channels
than any other of the animal fluids,
Luckily for the bilious, however, there
is an unfailing source OF relief from liver
complaint, namely, Hosietter's Stomach
Bittcrs, a medicine which for over a
quarter of a century has been achieving
thorough cures of the above mentioned
ailments, fever and ague, dyspepsia, bowel
complaints, rheumatic and kidney atfec-
ton, and disorders involving loss Of ner-
vous vigor. 1t is, moreover, a proven
tive of malarial disease, and affords pro

in districts of country where that dire
scourge is prevalent. As Il remedy

a means OF terrifying a debilitated system,
it is thoroughly to be depended II.

tention to the fact that the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill carried an
appropriation of $3.50. 900 for contingent
expenses of co~nsulates as against 800, 900
made in the bill of last year.
Mr.. Cannon offered an amendment APP
propriating $37, COS to meet DEFICIENCIES in
the salaries of minister and charges
d'affaires. Agreed to.
On motion of Mr.. Belmont Of New
York, the appropriation to supply de-
ficiences in the contingent expenses of
consulates for the year 1886 was increased
from 500, COO to $4,000; and for the
years 1884 and 1885 from 81, 900 to S37.-
las. Amendments were also adopted
appropriating various small sums to meet
special DEFICIENCIES in the consular service.
The committee then rose and reported the
bill to the house. The first vote was
taken on the amendment for the payment

ship companies for the transportation of
marines to Aspinwall in 1885. 1t was
agreed to-yeas lis. nays 90.
