Since coming here, three years ago,
Granville Morris had established him
self as a man of honor among all class
es and it is the universal hope that he
may yet get from under his present
financial embarrassment. He is honest,
energetic and deserving, and had his
debtors been as willing as he to pay
every dollar he owes, he would not now
be in need of any mans sympathy.

THE OUTGOING COUNCIL.

On last Tuesday the old town coun-
ell turned over the reins of govern
ment to their successors. recently cho-
sen by the people. The proceedings
attending such a transfer Of authority
were quiet and transformations, such
Is beft 4onr form of government.
: The outgoing council was elected
two years ago, despite some opposi-
ton. Naturally there were those who
had opposed the nominations who pre-
dicted that the then new council, COM
posed of yonng men mostly, would
proxe Il miserable abortion. Those
who had been instrumental i'll bring
ing about the election of these young
men, conscious of the wisdom OF their
move and possessing an abiding faith
in their men, said nothing and awaited
the course OF events to Justify them in
their action.
And now taking a retrospect of the
| admin tration of municipal affairs of
| the last Two years, the impartial mind
is bound to admit that they have not
! trusted in vain. The town has not
been bankrupted, as had been doleful-
~ predicted its have not
been squandered nor maladministered
but, the contrary, we have many sub
stantial improvements to show for
their expenditure in the shape of-plank
walks and brick pavements, to say
nothing of the past indebtedness paid.
The taxes have been well collected ;
the market and wharf well husbanded;
the police Of the town as we'll regula-
ted as that Of any previous administra-
ton.
OF course, this undoubted success in
the administration of our municipal af-
fairs is due to the untiring energy and
commendable zeal of our cx-mayor and
his efficient trustees /; but the share
contributed by their faithful corps Of
ministerial officers - constable and
clcrk-should not he lost sight Of. They
too deserve we'll of the public.

that period the country was thinly
settled, and was infested with To-
ries and desperadoes-too many Of
them, apparently, for the local an

Colonel Charles Lynch, a distin-
guished officer of the revolutionary
army, undertook t. rid his country
of the outlaws. Heo organized a
force, arrested the outlaws, and,
having satisfied himself and CON-
rades OF the guilt Of the accused,
executed them. without reference
to the constituted authorities.

Speaking of Archbishop Jannssens'
episcopal visit to Lafayette, the Id
r~ertiser says:
"Archbishop Janssens has made
Il most favorable impression upon our
people Though Of an earnest and
thoughtful cast of c%ountenance, upon
the approach OF civility he has ever a
ready and gracious response which
shows the true geniality of his nature.
Though his every word and action is
tinctured with his devotion to the
Church, there lis no acerbity in his con
duct. He has the happy faculty of be-
ing social and condescending without
compromising the dignity of his high
Office, and Of moulding his CONVERSE
ton to meet the peculiar moods Of his
varied auditors. He has particularly
honored Lafayette BY making this his
first point of visitation in the State
outside of New Orleans, and We be-
ieve his coming has been productive
Of much good to the Church."
