fresh and sweet, the steam opens
them, and the pillows and beds
are much larger and softer. He
does not lose any feathers by the

ocean steamers. There were pools
sold on about everything on his
steamer, and when the contribution

"WhO can I get to send it by!"
unused the Secretary. ''Send Il? re-
piled Lincoln, ''send it! Why,

THE SUGAR BOUNTY.

Editor Louisiana Planter: Can
you spare the spa6e IN yoqsvaluable
journal to enlighten an unenlighten-
ed planter about Dutch Standards
from No. to Is. do please let us
know IL any open kettle sigars will
come under the bounty definitions,
and Il possible can open kettle su-
gar be made to draw bounty.
When do we get the bounty and
ON what sugars. A Subscriber.
The Dutch were the fitst sugar
refiners and systematised the whole
sugar business at an early date BY
adopting definite standards Of
color, color being then the test Of
merit. The sugars that the Dutch
brokers madee their standard OF,
were clarified sugars, open train
sugars; but improved more or less
BY the clarifying process. Number
Z, which was dutiable at cents
under our tariff law Of 1870, l. Of .
very dark brown color, darker than
dark mahogany. Number 10, then
dutiabIe at Il cents, Is about the
color OF common gingerbread.
Number -, then dutiable at , cents,
is Of about the color Of fair L0uisi-
ana sugar and is presumed to be
about the color Of the New York
grade Of good refinery and to pol
arize 90 degrees.
Micheal Schlatre's sugar sent to
the Planter last week. and written
about in our last issue, page 25l,
graded about fully fair Louisiana
sugar, tested 80 2-lO per cent and
stood l6l Dutch Standard in color.
This was old sugar aud well drain
ed. lfnew and moist, 1t might have
fallen below - tsst. We make
very little su gar in Louisiana below
30 test. except they be frosted
sugars or such as won't purge.
From all this our correspondent
may see that we'll made, well drain
cd Louisiana open kettle sugars are
AFT to test 80, but that tw0-thirds
Df them will fall below 80 test, bu {
not 80, and that practically all Of
Them will be entitled to the bounty.

CLERK OF COURT.

Gov. Nidholls has appointed Col,
". F. Hosmer to be Clerk o.
Court Tor this parish, to al the ~
cancy caused by the death of thu
late w. G. Morgan. This appoint.
ment u one that meets with thu
hearty approval Of our people
in Ill parts OF the parish. The
Colonel Is . native Of Covington,
be was among the first to respond
bib country's call and has . good
war record, and he b, BY education,
long business experience, and high
social attainments, eminently fitted
for the important and responsible
position to which he has been ap-
pointed. He possesses every quail
fcation necessary to make an able
and efficient Court officer, and the
interests Of our parish and people
will be safe In his hands. In ma
king tins appointment, Gov.
Nichols has displayed fine judg-
ment and . thorough knowledge
Of the fitness Of his appointee,
and his action is being heartily in
dorsed on all sides.
Since the death Of Mr.. Morgan,
the Clerks Office has been in charge
Of Mr.. F. b. Martindale, appoint
ed Acting Clerk by the Court, and
his long experience, as Deputy
Clerk, enabled him to conduct the
business Of the Office in . prompt
and satisfactory manner. The rec
ords Of the parish we're never in as
good condition as at present, and
the Colonel will find everything in
ship-shape when he takes posses
sion. We have not learned wheth-
er any changes win be made in the
Office, but are inclined to the be-
lief that the experienced Deputy,
Mr.. Martindalc, viii be retained
IN the position he has SO long and
IDLY filled. At all events, We now
nave Clerk of Court, and Gov.
Nichols can pride himself upon
he fact thatin making this appoint
nent, he has pleased the people
md put the right man in the right
place.
