WE HAVE already commented on the
hasty and inconsiderate way in which
the House the other day passed TO en-
grossment bill Jas it should be called)
to facilitate and promote the frequency
OF divorce. 1t is perhaps too much to
expect that fifty-two men will have in
their corporate capacity what each one
may possess as an individual, namely,
common sense. Certainly in good deal
of the discussion in the Legislature late
ly, this quality has been conspicuous
chiefly by its absence. When the House
has been sitting for considerably more
than two months, and the greater part OF
its work yet remains to be done, it would
seem q misappropriation OF valuable
time mot to use a harsher phrase) to
spend day discussing the height OF 3
fence, or the possession OF fish killed in
a certain way. 1t is just as foolish mot
to use harsher phrase again to slur
over legislation of the most vital impor-
lance with ten minutes debate. When
two wrongs make right, that will be
proper way to make up for lost time. At
present it only throws the former sin of
difusiveness into stronger light.

ALEXANDRIA
COMPRESS AND WAREHOUSE
COMPANY

The undersigned respectfully calls to
the attention of the producers and
buyers of cotton, the superior facili-
ties offered by this company for the
storage and handling of cotton, which
are as fellows:
A large, commodious and finely con-
structed compress building, connected
with covered yards, all constructed and
arranged in such manner rs to secure
the greatest degree Of safety possible,
thereby enabling the company to obtain
the lowest rates of Insurance.
Large cisterns, and an elevated tank
constantly kept full Of water, supplied
from well by means of steam pumps,
and fully supply Of hose enabling
them to reach every part Of their prop
erty in case Of fire.
Competent and reliable watcha,en
are in charge at all hours of Doth day
and night.
The advantages Of transportation to
and from the compress and warehouse
will he readily appreciated when the
fact is known that the tracks of both
the Texas and Pacific and the South
ern Pacific pass in close proximity to
their platforms, and that the Red River
tmd Coast Line Packets have made AL
exandria one of their terminal points,
having established large and commo-
dious wharves and warehouses just
above the limits of the City of Alex
andria; said wharves, warehouse and
landings being connected with the
tracks of the T.. g. p. R. r. thereby
avoiding entirely the necessity of dray-
age to and from the steamboat landing
and the compress aud warehouse.
The charges for storage, handling
and COMPRISING Of cotton by this COM
pany, will be as reasonable as those of
the most favored markets of the coun-
try.
The desire and intention of the gen.
tlenian connected with the above en-
terprise is tn make the City of Alex
dria such market for Gotten as her
geographical location and her most ia
vorable facilities, such as are offered
by the River and Railways above mem
toned, entitle her to enjoy.
To this end bank to he known as
the Rapiles Bank of Alexandria has
been organized, with sufficient capi-
tai already subscribed, will commence
operations on September LIST, next.
This bank will be prepared to make
liberal advances on all cotton stored
with the above named Compress and
Warehouse Company. 1t will more
over furnish unsurpassed facilities for
the accommodation of Buyers of Cot
ton either for Domestic Spinners or for
foreign account. The gentlemen con-
nected with the Bank are all WE'LL
known citizens of Rapidss Parish and
of the City of New Orleas. At the
proper time the official announcement
Of their officers aud organization will
be made public. 1t is well-kn0wp
fact that planters and merchants who
tried both the New Orleans and Alex
andria Market last season realized
from 81 50 to 50 90 more per bale on
their cotton sold in the Alexandria
market.
Any further information that may
be desired can be obtained, and will
he furnished. by addressing the ander-
signed at Alexapdria.

Trust, Corner, Boomerang!


We doubt if there ever was q
case of intended injury that re-
bounded 80 much to real benefit as
the jute combine or corner has been
to the cotton planters of the South.
1t awakened the latent spirit of re-
sistance that lay dormant in them,
which has resulted in the inaugu-
ration of new manufacturing in
tertest in our midst, that will not
only give employment to hundreds
of operatives, but creates an addi-
tional market for our staple right
here at home, thereby materially
aiding in keeping up the price of
cotton. It has secured an increase
in the Liverpool tare of the entire
weight of the cotton cloth used for
covering, thereby enabling buyers
to increase their bids in this mar
ket nearly / of cent per pound.
It has resulted in the Secretary of
the Treasury deciding that second
hand jute bagging, that is in a
condition fit to be used again as a
covering for cotton, can be brought
back into the United States free OF
duty, thus insuring cheap baggine
and striking the last death dealing
blow to the "bagging trust" II
has opened the eyes of the world
to the fact that the farmers OF
America are intelligently and
unitedly combined to protect their
own interest, and given warning to
spectators that all corners and
trusts will be fought with terrible
earnestness and certain success.
And above all, it has given our
farmers a knowledge of their
strength and increased their self
respect

Started by a Pepper Corner.

Corners in various articles OF merchan-
disc and especially in food, from wheat
and pork to prunes. are characteristic of
the business methods of the present day.
But they are not modern invention. The
famous East India company, according to
a document recently published, had its
origin in Dutch corner in pepper. Ger
tain merchants in Amsterdam, who had
begun to trade in the eastern seas about
1895, had by the end of the century so
well established themselves that they
raised the price Of pepper in London from
three shillin,S to eight shillings a pound.
The London merchants thereupon held q
meeting and resolved to form an associa-
ton TO trade directly with India. Queen
Elizabeth at the same time sent al envoy
to the Great Mogul TO secure privileges for
the company, and in 1000 the first British
East India company was incorporated by
royal charter under the title of the Gov
ernor and Company of Merchants of Lon
don trading to the East Indies. In due
time this company established a greater
monopoly than the Dutch had ever
dreamed of, and the British empire in In
dia may be said to have been started by
the Dutch pepper corner.-Philadelphia
