BY roason Of the state of chronic in
creGulity in which many men pass their
lives they miss half the good Of this
world. They seem to think that doubt
ami unhelief are proofs OF wisdom, and
through fear Of being deceived reject
Iults1l that is true and good. To such
minds the statement that DR.. PIerce's
Golden Medical Discovery is a real and
proven cure for all diseases caused by
torpid liver, bad or scrolulous humors
carries With it its wi condemnation.
They'do not believe il, apparently, be-
cause we say SO and yet what more,
or less, than this can we doP We know
the facts, and if we did not make pub.
lie the great value of this remedy few
would profit by it. We try to do our
duty iii the matter and i remains for
the doubter who needs help to over
come his prejudice and give it a tria!.

There are few papers in the State
that are trying to make the,people
believe that Gov. Nichols is already
involved in a perfect net work of
b!undcrs. from which nothing but a
constitutional convention will ex.
tricate him and the State. Your
work vii! come to nought, gentle
men. The people were fooled once
by such means, but they will not be
acknowledgement Democrat.
The number of such pagers is
limited. We know Of no one who
wants Il constitutional convention
but such as are dissatisfied with the
"divvy." They want another shake"
in hopes that their combination will
come out Of the box, Louisiana will
want no change for at least four
years to come, and then she wants
no constitutional convection, but
merely the usual expression of Dem.
ocratic ehoice.-B. R.. Advocate.

We have been shown a freight
bill of the Morgan La. & I. K. R,
for The transportation of a small
calf weighing less than l25 pounds,
from New Orleans to St. Martins
vile. According to the bill, by
some strange process OF arithmetic,
this calf, less than one year old, is
made to weigh 206o pounds, and On
that weigh freight is charged at the
rate of 80 cents per 100 pounds,
making $3.50. Mr.. Gau,hier, the
owner of this calf, had the attention
of the officers of the company cal
led to this unreasonable charge,
expecting to obtain redress, but to
nc avail. l. it not time that the
merchants and planters of this par.
ish should know that we have
water communication with the out
side world, and that our boats charge
much less than the railroad company
on all freight? Would it no, be to
their interest TO patronize these
boats and keep up a competition
between the boats and the railroad
company.-Reveille.

The late storm which prevailed
for several days Throughout the
greater portion Of the lower part Of
Louisiana, caused a great deal Of
damage to the country, destroying
property to the amounts Of millions
of dollars. The rice, sugar cane
and cotton was beaten down, and in
many places will prove a total loss.
Several. church houses, sugar houses
aud private residences were com.
pletely destroyed. and the inmates
driven to the exposure Of the fierce
wind and rain. Steamboats, and
) sail vessels were driven ashore, and
some Of them sunk. Trees were up.
rooted and public parks converted
into almost irreparable wrecks. The
railroad trains in some places were
delayed in consequence Of washouts,
and communication with the outside
world inpcded for o time. Several
Elves arc reported loss, but. we are
pleased to state, that not near as
smauy as was at one tine supposed to

ftior Of Our State through which this
hurricane passed, and no doubt will
