NO. W
stonewall .BacIEson.

The monument erected 20 the mem.
DRY ot Stonewall jackson, ono of Che
most celebrated and successful of Ire
Confederate Generals, was dedicated
on the 18th on the spot where the
great soldier was nortally wounded.
There were 5000 people present who
were presided over by Fiizhngh Ice,
Of Virginia, and addressed BY Senator
John w. Daniel
We give tho introductory portion
Of Daniels speech, which IS regarded
as one Of the finest bursts Of oratory
ever heard 10 this country
Here in the depth of the wilder
ness on Spotsylyania's soil on The ard
day of May, 1868, in The hour Of VIC
tory and in the fortieth year of bis
age, fell ii battle Thomas Jonathan
jackson, lieutenant-general in the ar
my Of the Confederate States, com.
.manding the Second Corps Of the ATT
my of Northern Virginia. On the 10th
day Of May he diod, aud in tho grave
yard at his old home, at Lexington,
Va, he hes buried. Hther We come
to dedicate upon this spot landmark
stone, and 10 pay respects to bis mem
ory, Sacred is tho soil that soaked
the hero's blood, sad and tender are
the memories this day recalls. But
this is not the place nor the time for
tears, We are gathered together 10
rejoice that human nature can take
TO credit and lift up to example the
life of such manpas jackson; that he
spent hts life amongst us, that he
gave his life to Us that our countrymen
everywhere revere his name, and that
the record Of his life remains as the
glory Of his State, his race, bis ooun-
try, aud as mankind's great heritage
in all generations,
"The world has never known a sub
Inner man than jackson. His life
was dauntless bis energy was ire
pressible; his ambition was ehastened;
his religion was pure his patriotism
was feryent his mind was vigorous;
his heart was charitable, He was val
orous Of his convictions; he was sirik-
ingly modest he was grandiy auaa-
Cious,
"Of his soldiers he was the idol;
of his country he was the hopo; Of war
he was the MASTER HIS genius was
trausoondent, His deeds we're won.
dorful, To serve his God and his
country he lived; serving and loving
them he died His manliness aud his
godIiuess were alike preGmiuont, and
The memory of him will never die.
| shall speak of him to-day as man and
soldier, and to tell the truth plainly
shall be my only object, fer Truth
will be his monument when the stone
upon his grave has mingled with the
dust beneath IT,"

Audible Laughter.


New 1pIk IFess'
Man is The ouly audible laughing
animal in existence. Girls gigglo,
boys te.he, women hah,ha, and men
haw haw. These are the sponLano.
GUS outbursts of jollity, and in trying
to suppress it one cannot be account
able for the consequence, You have
the faculty Of communicating TO your
blind friend the reciprocal pleasure
of life, therefore you have advantage
over the most Intelligent of the brute
creation. No dumb animal has the
faculty Of expressing any emotiou
they may feel save the dog, who
laughs with his tail as his long absent
master returns; it seems as il ha
would never cease TO wiggle.waggle
his tail aud nibble his masters beard
from one car TO the other; be laughs
with his tail, kisses, as it were, with
his teeth, and caresses with his paws,
seeming to be the exact converse of
human nature. BE sure that heaven
and all the cherublms arc better
pleased with mate goodness, roseate
with smiles, than q face as long as
your arm and as solemn as the day Of
Judgment, Give US a bright, smiling
face, indicative Of the efferyescence
Of the within. II helps US to enjoy a
passing hour of blissfnI happiness, A
new delight steals over the heart, aud
we willingly yield to the fleetipg, fam
ciful dream that all Of earth is sarest
bliss.

upon the people Of Shreveport and
Caddo parish the necessity of such
a road and the benefits 10 be derived
by the said road running through Cad,
do parish,
Il agree with Push iu his article
of the 2lst and think he is correct i'll
every sense. There is one thing sure
if the said road is built and this place
is made the terminus as proposed,
this is bound to be the garden spot
of Louisiana, and this place will con
tjnue to boom aud grow to be some
thing.
The people of Lake Charles have to
do something to secure this road, II
seems as If our town papers here have
quieted down like the people waiting
for developments. for one want TO
see this road built, aud want it 10 go
through Shreveport and Caddo parish,
as it is the most direct route from this
place to Kansas City.
The people Of Lake Charles and Of
Caddo should wake up and go to work
for tho proposed railroad. This road
when built will not only benefit the
city Of Shreveport but the entire par
ish of Caddo. and the same can be
