heretofore delegated TO the government Of rho
United States of America that her citizens are alb
solved from all allegiance 10 said government, and
that she is in full possession and exercise Of all
those rights Of sovereignty which appertain to .
free and independent state. WedO further declare
and ordain that all rights acquired and vested
under the constitution Of the United States, OF
any act of congress- treaty, or under any law Of
this state, and not incompatible with this ordin
ance. shall remain In force and have the same
effect as if this ordinance had not been passed
The first design, under the words. "Ordi-
nance of Secession" consists Of "Lone Star
flag" on the right, its ste6 inclined and its
folds rolling gracefully away. In tho field is
the single large star, while thirteen stripes
alternate dark and light In the body Of
the banner. At the base Of the Gag its staff
joins another bearing palmetto fag,"
floating away in the opposite direction
This flag has three broad stripes and in the
field large star, surrounded by seven smaller
five-pointed representatives of the orbs Of
night. Where the stats touch, a handsomely
drawn wreath encircles the junction.
To the right of the word ''constitution" il
an agricultural design, displaying sugar cane
Implements, pillow, harrow, wheelbarrow,
shovels, grain cradles, forks, etc., with the
heads and straw of grain peeping over the
top Of the design. To the left is q military
display, with cannon and shot, stand Of arms
and colors, drum, powder horn, and swords
The colors on this design are composed of the
'Lone Star flag" the palmetto flag" and
the state flag with pelican drawn thereon,
representing the pelican state"
This whole design is very pretty, indeed,
besides being suggestive of the determination
of the Louisiana citizens to defend their with
drawal from the union of states. The last
design, spreading between the words "of
America" and ''is hereby dissolved" consists
of representations Of casks containing mo-
lasses. bales Of cotton, barrels of sugar, ETC.,
showing the products which made the state
an influential and powerful ally in tho new
confederation.
This handsome relic hangs in the Wisconsin
executive Office through the enterprise Of
Maj. Guy c. Pierce, Of Klbourn, an employee
in the Office Of the state board of supervision.
He captured the document together with
other effects of Governor Moore, chief maeis-
trate of Louisiana during the war. It was
taken from under drawer to desk in Gov
ernor Moore's Office when the advance guards
of the Federals-among whom was Maj
Pierce-took possession Of the capitol build
ing.
The Fourth Wisconsin regiment formed tho
advance of the line on tho entrance of the
Yankees into Baton Roage, and Maj Pierce
was one Of the first placed in charge Of the
state house. Governor Hoard, of Wisconsin,
was member of the band in the Fourth Wis
consin at the time Of the entrance into the
city, and remembers some Of the circum-
stances connected with the occupation Of the
Louisiana capitalization Wis., Cor. Chi

Louis XVI.

Louis XVI had not tho imposing presence
of the two kings, his predecessors, though
there was nothing ignoble in his person. 1t
was rather in manner than appearance that
he lacked distinction, for he was tAN and well
proportional The strictuess Of his morals
commanded respect and his private virtues
admiration, but he possessed neither the bril-
liant qualities which attract, nor the grace of
manner which wins people, nor the frmness
which inspires confidence. These attributes,
so necessary for governing a nation, more
especially the French nation, in him were en-
tirely wanting; there was, therefore, the ne
cessity for keeping his subjects at respectful
distance, from which it would be impossible
TO distinguish the imperfections of the wearer
of the crown through the halo that surrounded
it. But by strange fatality the etiquette
and ceremony of court, which appear so
trivial to superficial minds, but which are so
essential to the preservation Of kingly au-
tbority, were never so necessary as under ths
reign Of the monarch who abolished tnem.-

Causes Of Lcprosy.

Causes Of Leprosy.
Now that leprosy is being so much dis
cussed in various parts Of tho world it may
not be uninteresting to cite few Of tho chief
causes set down In the old Hindoo medical
works ~ inducing leprosg: First, sleeping In
the day time; second, eating when the appe-
tito is not keen; third, gluttony; fourth, eat
ing too much Of new rice, curd, fish, salt,
acids. trsacle and cakes; fifth, drinking cold
water when fatigued Or suffering from fear;
sixth. excessive physical exertion after meals
seventh, exposing ones self for any hong time
eighth, drinking liquors; ninth, Insulting a
Brahmin. 1t would be interesting to find out
in how many cases leprosy has had its origin
in the insult offered to Brahmin. Colonies
and India.

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1890-04-10

The greatest abuse connected with the pres
ent system of road repair-which has been very
freely commented upon in the columns of the
Herdld-is that resulting from the provision of
the old law allowing the working out of road
taxes on the part of those to whom they are
assessed.
This provision is a relic of what may be con-
sidered remote antiquity-not merely before
the war" to use an elastic expression long in
fashion, but even anterior to the adoption of
present form of government, when money was
all rural neighborhoods instead of the more
advanced methods of buying and selling long
prevalent.
On this crude idea was based the legislation
which remands the whole work of road repair
TO those who are unskilled in such work and
whose only aim is often to put in time regard
less OF the effect upon the highways
Some one proposes that this system instead
OF being swept away at one stroke, shall be in
definitely perpetuated by the issuing of bonds
IN exchange for labor and material to be used
IN the work of matchmaking towpship roads,
1t is possible that some system of supervision
could be devised which would guarantee that
such an exchange would be fair and just to the
public, but it must be different experience
from that Of the past to realize that result, In
ferior material and labor inadequate to the
purpose would almost certainly be given as an
equivalent for the bonds, and the old evils of
working out road tax would be erepeated,-Nor-

The Nation Must Solve This Question.

Cooper Union Hall, New York, was
crowded one evening recently with men
who believe in the overthrow of all or
ganlzed government and the establish
ment OF universal license like that of
the Pars Commune, which reign of ter
ror the meeting was held to commem-
crate. Ihe meeting of the fearful epi-
sode was told by one of the speakers and
received with applause, which was re-
newed when he predicted that the same
thing would occur in the United States
The chairman of the meeting express
ed the hope that it would not be long be-
fore the uprising to which they all looked
forward so eagerly would occur, and
the crowd INDUCED in gleeful anticipa.
tlons of time when the streets of New
York will be filled with dead bodies,
their cutters run with blood and their
buildings be consumed with fire.
ms Is all talk now, and so long as it is
all talk 1t will do no harm; but it went
beyond talk IN Paris during the reign of
the Commune; it went beyond talk in
Chicago when the Haymarket riot took
place, and it is fondly expected bv thous-
ands Of men and women in New YORK
that some day soon it will 90 bevond
talk there.
Can such calamity be prevented II
so. it would be criminal folly to let those
wretches murder even one man or des.
troy dollars worth of property. Such
meetings as that at Cooper Union are
threats. If no attention is paid them
they embolden those who make them
infame their passions and incite thei
fury. If suppressed, it is an interfer
ence with the right Of free speech
which is jealously guarded in this coun
try. The problem is grave one. New
York and the whole country will b,
fortunate if it is solved peacefully.-Er
