LAFAYETTE, La, July Ilib.-This
has been a notable day 10 Lafayette.
The oldest inhabifant again stands
aghast al the events of the last few
hours.
An armed body Of men, about $50
whites and thirty or forty blacks, rode
into town this evening and broke open
the pansb Jail.
On Tuesday last, about midday in
the northern part of this parish, near
CareRcTo, a negro woman was found
in ercabin dead. Everything pointed
to her husband as the murderer, 10 fact
he had on several occasions been heard
to say be intended to kill her. Ii ap-
pears thai be used an Ak and a knife
to do his work, after which he locked
the door Of the cabin, leaving within
the dead body of has wife, two small
children, one two years old, the other
an infant, then fed to parts unknown.
Such crimes merit speedy punish
ment, but ''Mob law" is ruinous. A
splendid brick Jail and iron cage was
broken open in daylight, the prisoner
whom tn the Sheriff had arrested was
taken ont and hung at the scene Of
his crime, and another prisoner allow
cd to escape.

Brother Hart was to furnish an &C,
count of the meeting held in Victoria
by Rev. Yergil Maxcy and himself,
5nt.I suppose he concluded ibatI had
better do SO. By invitation Of the
church hero these brethren came and
began a meeting on the 18th Of May
which was abruptly closed at the eE-
piration of two weeks by the severe
illness OF Bro. MaIcy. There were
three accessioBs 10 the church, one of
whom was at the head Of a leading
Baptist family. Had Bros. Maxcy and
Hart been able TO remain a week long
Ur there would probably have been
more visible results. One feature of
the meeting was remarkable. Jews
and Catholics who had never been in
a Protestant church in this town came
regularly 10 the services at night.
The house Is 36x8O, and open from
the front door to the rear end-nnhn-
ished-aBd besides the benches, we
had all the chairs we could borrow
from the furniture stores, and pianks
along the sides and 10 front, and the
house was crowded at every night ser
vice.
On Sunday May 90, al 4 ?. N. a
large congregation OF men and bows
were out to hear a sermon specially
for them.
The last Sunday night Bro. Aaxcy
was unable TO preach. but at the close
Of services he asked that all persons
who were benefited by the meeting
shoDid arise, and nearly the entire
congregation arose 10 their feet con
verified and unconperted.
Bro. Maxcy, though Young IN the
Christian life, and only three years IN
the ministry, has elements Of power
and great usefulness if he will only
improve them properly, and give at.

The Baton Rouge Truth OF the 18th
inst, in luminous editorial, headed
by the above figures, concludes that
the circuit court must go-S232,2 $50
out of a Stale revenue of $500, 600
devoted to the payment Of the judges
and district attorneys.
'But," says the AdDooate"lbis,even,
is moiety of what the actual expense
of our system is to The people" And
agaiB-HAt the start in looking ont
useless and expensive aPpendages, we
mention circuit courts; their dnty has
been performed and their mission end
ed. The record they are at present
making shows that they are Row worse
than worthless. Not only do they
cost exiraVagantIy, bat they are es-
tsblishing a Jurisprudence with as
many casts Of colors as Jacobs coat"
THIS last Objection 10 the circuit
court system is certainly By far the
most serious yet urged. Thai they
are costly, is true-but not more cost
ly than the other branches Of the iu-
dietary department Appeals 70 the
supreme court require expensive iran
scripts, causing heavy costs to litigants
and large fees to lawyers because Of
the travelling expenses to the points
where court is held, the printing of
briefs, etc, while the present method
in opr district courts impose heavy
costs, burdens and loss of time Oh lit
giants aud severe financial burdens on
The parishes for witnesses fees, Jurors,
ETC., and the Justice of the Peace sys-
Len is an ezcrescence from the middle
ages.
The elrcuit courts take large
amount proportionaliy from the State
Golfers direct for Judges salaries but
outside Of that very little expense is
thrown upon the people or htigaDts
in The way Of costs fees and court
charges, while the supreme court is
lighteDed sufficiently Of its laborS to
enable it to attend properly to what
remains.
1t will not do, therefore, to expect
to cure the evil by simply abolisbing
the circuit system. The messing knife
must go deeper and strike at the worm
which gnaws at the root of our judi.
ciaI system.
The various interpretations Of law
by seven different appellate courts Of
last resort Is, howeyer,of itself a most
grievous evil An attorney in form
ing an opinion upon the merit
Of case can not look with All eye
single TO the law OF the land as in-
terPeted by the supreme court. If
the case be not appeaIabIe from
the district court, be must first in
form himself Of the peculiar idea
of the district judge on similar
points or be will be at sea. If the
matter be aPpeaIabIe TO the circnit
court, then his opinion must depend
on the Jurisprudence as established
by the circuit Judges of the particular
district having cognizance of the mat,
ter.
The objection to the different inter
petatiOns of the law by the different
eircuit courts, exists with equal force
to at least thirty district courts. 1t
is not 50 noticeable, however, because
the amount is smaller and the matter
is rarely noticed outside of the liti.
giants and their immediate friends.

ST Landry Democrat.
The decision Of the Supreme Cont
in The cases OF Clinton 3. Andrus and
J. Samuel Perkins against toe Board
Of Police, town of Opelonsas. is Of
great Importance 10 our people. Ii is
an injunction, involving the legality
and eonslituhonality of the twenty-five
mills court house tax, levied 10 assist
in the building Of that structure. The
court merely passed on the question
Of estoppel, ruling that "a taxpayer
who petitions for the passage Of an
ordinance levylng a special tax or who
votes for it Is estOPped by this action.
This settled the matter as far as our
present court house tax is concerned.
Now. as 10 the con8itutio1aaiitu of this
tax, Justice FeDUer, as the organ Of
tbe court, uses the following strong
language
1--WE must not be understood as
making the slightest animation of aD
opinion that tins Tax is illegal or IN
constitutional: the question Of estoppel
proceeds the issues on the merits Of
the case and IN Logical order required
anterior decision having maintained
the estoppeI that ends the case"
The foregoing extract from Judge
FenDer's opinion clearly indicates the
views Of tue supreme court on the
constitutional question it practically
admits that the tax is constitutional
and legal This decision is important
not only as regards our present court
house tax, but it will be a land mark
for the guidance of our municipal au-
thorliies in like matters. We under
stand that the town proposes TO appeal
all the other cases after allowing delIu
quents reasonable time 10 pay with
out further costs.
