paradise Of Louisiana. Most
charming and healthy weather.
Not . disturbance OF my kind "a
be chronicled. Not even . case 81
chills and fever. Our ]. P.'s are non
plussed, our doctors are improving
their abodes, and old Aaut Priscilla
wants to zee some more weddings,

future generation.
The political furore being over
our town rulers have gone to work.
Mr.. Geo. weightman, IN estina-
BILE citizen Of our suburb, has been
appointed treasurer and duly quail
fed. Rumor says he i also The
tax collector, but in regard to this
the future will tell, for be b . sal
aired officer, (only q per annum }
Our late collector has given fun
satisfaction, and although Smith
onian, justice to him should be BE-
slowed BY our City Fathers. lGr.
r. c. Smith has been reappointed
city mashal. ''Buddy," stick To-
your former principles, and you
win get the approval II the know
ing ones.
The administration, No think,
are trying to do the right thing,
but nevertheless, they overlook 81
main point. Are they 20 blind -
not to read the State laws? Do
not they know that there i . parish
paper published 1t the seat Of
government, In the town Of Coving-
ton, known to al and most popu-
lar in this town, the FARxxR, and |
that their proceedings must be pub |
lished in said official paper? How
can any prospector, or even resi-
dent Of this incorporated town,
know when they are violating the
laws and regulations Of the town,
when the minutes and proceedings
Of our Council are kept closeted aad
unknown to but . few, in the desk
Of the secretary? "HonoRables,"
publish your laws and give . fair
chance to every one to know what
you are doing, and make yourselves
popular.
It il with pleasure that those
having tombs and graves in our
cemetery know that Mr.. WIN.
Wilkoeneke has been appointed -
