We deeply regret to learn Of the
resignation of Judge Conrad Debail.
Jon, of this the twenty.ffth judicial
district. During the past FIVE years
he has dischared the arduous duties
of his high Office with zeal IAN ability
and a conscientiousness which have
won for him the confidence and es-
TEEN of the public, and the remem.
brance of which we hope will here.
after be as gratifying to him as it
has been to his friends. The reasons
which have prompted the Judge to
lay down the ermine in the prime Of
life and in the morning of a judicial
career full of promise, we know not.
In retiring he carries with him the
sincere regrets of our people, and
their best wishes for his success.
He has made for himself a record
which not every judge can equal.
We hope the Governor may in the
exercise OF his appointment select q
worthy successor.

Taking a just pride in our public
roads we have always endeavored to
give due credit to the overseers who
have kept up their work in good
style. In this connection we desire
to favorably mention Mr.. Homer
Decuir, of Mouton's Cove, 7th ward.
He is one Of the most active, ener-
getic overseers in the parish, and the
excellent work he has done on the
Grand Marais levee and road testi-
4ics 10 his Intelligence and faithful
performance Of duty.
