STEAMBOATS, WANTED.

Under the above heading we find
the following article in that sterling
and influential journal, the Scientific
american, of New York city:
"On the northern shore of that
beautiful body of water just back OF
New Orleans known as Lake Pont-
chartrain lies the parish OF st.
Tammany. 1t is noted among the
parishes of Louisiana for its health
fulness, much Of the land being
fully . hundred feet above the level
Of the Lake. The country is gent
ly undulating and contains num-
Der of mineral springs, some Of
which, such as those ut Abita, have
become noted places Of resort. The
present steamers. running Mt The
rate of only. eight miles an hour,
have refused to carry the mails
daily to Covington, a distance Of
IS miles from New Orleans, fol-
$4,000 per annum. 1t is believed
that good. swift service. would
build up this section into a charm
Ing suburb of New Orleans"
1t is gratifying to know that our
beautiful and healthy country has
attracted the attention of such q
we'll known and widely circulated
paper as the Scientific american.
1t is perhaps in error about the
speed Of the steamers, rs we think
they make from ten to twelve miles
an hour. There is no more charm
ing and delightful country, or
beautiful scenery, mirror-like rivers
and sparkling springs, and balmy
breezes, to be found anywhere in
the world than here in "Old st.
Tammany." and when our natural
advantages and attractions, either
for farming, fruit raising. vineyards,
live stock, or for pleasure, are
more widely known and appreci-
ated. not only by the citizens OF
New Orleans and the South, by the
country at large. there will be work
for twenty steamers instead Of two,
and our parish will become as pros
porous financially as it is naturally
beautiful.

The lberville South saws:

The Police Jurors throughout
the State have managed the local
affairs of their respective parishes
with wisdom aud economy; most
of them are out of debt and some
have surplus in the treasury. To
illustrate our point, We will take
our own parish. 1berville. In 1879.
when Gov. Nichols appointed the
first Police Jury. under the new
constitution, our parish was terri
bly, involved by Radical misrule-
about $40, 900. we believe. Three
successive juries have been mp
pointed, including the present one,
and to-day her parish paper is
worth dollar for dollar. No sane
man can say that such would have
een the case had the old system OF
ei4 ling Police Jurors prevailed.
Nohe would have been bankrupt

In no instance have We seen q
charge made against the compe-
tency aud honesty of Gov. Mem

A Blow TERRIBLY AVENGED
The town of Marlboro was lately
the scene of great excitement. The
people employed in the various
mills had struck for an advance of
wages, and their request having
been refused, had quit work in a
body. One of the leading employ
srs, Albert Trowbridge, had replied
to their appeals with scorn aud in
suit, and with his riding whip had
brutally scared the face of one of
the workmen, Dan Selby, who had
stopped him in the street to reason
with the man of wealth. The COW
arcly blow maddened the man and
he determined upon revenge. That
night MIR. Trowbridge AID Dan
Selby came face to face again-this
time in the fourth story of the de-
serted mill--and their meeting, ut
that lonely hour. meant death to one
or both. A fierce fight succeeded
angry words, and the mill cwner
was forced to the window, when,
each cliuging to the other with the
madness of iiercest hate, both crash
ed through tue slender easement.
On the narrow ledge outside, pro-
tected by slight railing, full forty
feet above the river below. they
struggled for the mastery. The
pressure against the rotten railing
causes it to snap in pieces, and
both men, still clutcLing each other
in deathly grasps, were hurled
headlong to their fate. The nu-
merous exciting events which pre-
coded and followed this single Incl
dent of the Great Strike are wildly
narrated in the powerful story en-
titled "FoR LIVING WAGES; OR
LENA DUDLEY's PERIL" just begun
in No. % of the N,,u York Weekly.
Every news agent sells the Ne,r
York Weekly or it will be sent direct

JUDGE NOT.
BY AMANDA n. CLARK.

Beware how you judge friend or neigh
Dor.
And think all the truth you discern.
Appearance is often deceitfnl.
And the real not easy to learn.
Judge not, though an evil seems glaring.
You may understand but part.
And the anguish you cause by dark
Islander,
Stings the depths Of an innocent
heart.
Even should there be facts you can
gathe'.
Then turn your gaze quickly within.
And see if your own errlng nature
Walks not meath the shadow of sin.
For where shall we look for perfection
Seek it not in the nature of man?
Then leave all to the eye of the Father.
Who alone with true justice can scan.
The soul that seems proudest and cold
!, est
May stand on the brink Of despair,
For the water of bitterness ever
Is found in the ohalice of Care.
How often. instead Of stern censure,
Should we kindness and pity bestow.
Did We know of the close hidden trouble
And tears of wild anguish that flow.
Obi Judge not. whatever the seeming,
Lest We crush poor, weak. fainting
heart,
And strike with injustice still deeper
Dread sorrows most torturinR dart.
Like the hiss of venomous serpent
Does the voice of the Sian derer rise.
And the sound of his trumpet of dark
Is scorned by the noble AMI wise.
AS the song of an angel from Heaven
Does the sweet notes of Charity fall.
Oh! let us be gentle and tender.
For God is the Judge OF US all.
