Curious Habits Of FROGS.

Frogs are fond of birds, which they
catch frequently. l sometimes give
them q sparrow or two. They swallow
them down feathers and all. Shortly
afterward you will see the feathers
come rolling out of their mouths just
IS if some living thing were within
them plucking tire feathers off. One
of my frogs became i'll the other day.
He had swallowed something that did
not agree with him. What do you
suppose the old fellow did, Why he
just sat down on his launches and
turned his stomach inside out and
washed it in the water and in q mo-
ment afterward returned the organ to
it's proper position. He always uses
his hind legs to remove the stomach
when it is disordered. Several of my
frogs, you will observe, have lost az
arm or a leg. That was the condition
in which I caught them. / have nc
doubt the members were lost in some
terrific battle held in their native
ponds. They live to a good old age.

The death Of Gen. John G. Fremont
brings to mind that Jack Coleman a
resident of this town, accompanied
the Pathfinder in his famous expedi-
ton rel the Rocky mountains, into
California fifty years ago. Jack gives
quite a graphic description of the in
cidents connected with that voyage.
Some hard experiences were gone
through, and Jacks history Of q din
ner on stewed dog, makes the old man
feel unwell at the stomach now. Jacks
memories of some of Fremont's treat
ment does not appear to be of the
most agreeable nature, vet he feels an
interest in anything relating to the
dead general and, will no doubt re-
greet to hear Ut his death. Jack was
the servant Of one of the officers nc
s%ompanying Fremont. He subsequent

FER the eRNTIN8L.l
Angel Of Memory, winging thy flight
Over the land of a mournful delight.
Wake from their sleep in q Lethean night
Beautiful dreams Of the past.
Bring them again with a mystical art,
Though from the shades they reluctantly
And lay. them down gently to rest ON the
Where they persisted SO long ago.
What, are the chords on our memory's lutte
Now to the touch unvibrating and mute,
Thrill they no longer with pleasure acute
Responsive to joys that are gone?
Fame, we have sighed for thy laurels unwon,
Toiled for a gilded, ephemeral crown,
Lo,k we back now on our duty undone
As we followed thy phantoms afar.
Faith, we have trusted, and trust was be-
trayed;
Since the Serpent of Eden a desert has made,
Earth has of wisdom and truth bu1 a shade
Darkened by falsehood and guilt.
Hope, We have ollowed thy meteor ray
Flashing in brilliance along our way,
Ih0u hast been tempter instead of a stay,
Thou hast but Knocked our despair.
Love, though we worshiped and prayed at
thy shrine
Just for thy favor all else to resign,
Bltterest memories and saddest, are thine,
Thou, too, hast fled with the rest.
Angel of Memory, take them again
THESE are the treasures of sorrow and pain,
Give us the living and take back the slain,
Better the dreams of to-day.

Gen. John c. Fremont died last Sun
day in New York. Fifty years ago this
man earned his fame and renown, in
surveying the Rocky mountain wilds,
and the coasts of the Pacific, for which
grand work he earned and wore ever
after the title of the "Pathfnder.'
During his wanderings he came in
contact with Mexican forces in what
is now California, gave them a gen.
teel thrashing, and planted the flag
of the union upon her soil, which soon
became a Fart OF the United States.
He was, ace for a short period,
senator from California, and was the
first candidate OF the Republican par
ty for president of the United States,
at which contest James Buchanan
was elected chief magistrate.
He served in the federal armies dur.
ing the war OF secession but did
not acquire much fame for those SER
vices.
Lately he was put upon the retired
list of the army, having become al
most destitute in his old age. Fol
many years the government had
charged with some $4,000. 90 that it was
claimed that he owed. in order to re-
ceive his salary as an officer on the re-
tired list Congress passed q bill reliev-
ing him from the claim that was be.
ing held over his head. A closer ex
animation disclosed the fact that in.
stead of being indebted to the govern.
ment, the government owed him that
sum an error of some entry having
been found in his accounts. He haf
passed away and will long be re.
membered rs the great Pathfinder in
the early days Of this nation.

LoCKPORr, La, July 10th, 1S9'

LocKPoRr, La, July 18th, 1890.
We notice among the bills passed in
the last legislature and approved by
the Governor, one numbered act 73
vi 10, Il. rln'e- it shall be unlawful for
any peuGior ~ carry Oh business, un-
less he wears a badge marked and
numbered. We look upon this as
another burden placed on the business
carried on by our poorer classes. In
the mean time our legislature was
completely blind to the fact that most
OF u large planters have stores on
their places, wherein their tenants and
laborers are forced to trade at ~ruinons
rates, whilst the regular tax and license
paying stores are deprived of this
source of revenue. This is a crying
evil that should have been remedied
long ago.
Opinions are not unanimous as to the
Sunday Law bill: for our part we
think the governor acted wisely in We
toing it. Of course the ants here APP
prove his action on the Lottery bill,
using the same arguments put forward
by him in his message, viz: that the
State will fare no better, that it will
be as poor in % years as it is now;
they also disapprove of the action of
the Pros in rejecting the Foster resolu-
ton to investigate alleged bribing by
the Lottery company, which they
claim has been going on for quite a
time and on a very liberal scale. Still,
we remain as ever, body and soul in
favor of regranting the charter to the
company, but of course always with
the understanding that the schools
shall derive the full benefit promised
them, and that not one cen Of it shall
be diverted to any other purpose.
If to be used exclusively for the Free
Public Schools, together with the State
tax raised for the same object, we will
do all we a to carry the amendment
but if there must be some tinkering to
our present school taxes, then we
would not hesitate to work to defeat it,
Some time this week, Messrs. G..
Abribat and F. II. Hautot, our two
good friends. went to your city, the
former on some legal business in con-
nection with his occupation here, the
latter to take his naturalization papers
and his oath of Office as Justice of the
Peace. 1t was rumOred that he had
some other business on hand at the
same time, but friend H. is "slyn and
we have been unable to worm it out of
him, if such really was the case.
The school session, which lasted IL
months, ends on the 18th inst. At the
present writing a board of examiners,
consisting of DR.. p. Caillouet, G.. d,
Barrios and G. Abribat, Jr., appointed
by the association, is inspecting the
progresses made by the children and
we hope to give you a full report in
our next. You kno the interest we
take in all that concerns education,
and we are confident that we will
have a good report to give of the pro-
teachers. LAFOURCHE.

Last week, Mr.. NJ. H. Landry, of
Donaldsonville, died. The deceased
was well known all along bayou La
fourche and the coast, having been
clerk on the different bayou packets
for 35 years. He was also a member
ofthe company of lafourche Guards
that vas organized in Thibodaux in
1861, and served throughout the wal
having, by force of his soldierly quail
ties, been promoted to a lieutenancy
in that gallant company.
The deceased was beloved by all
who knew him, having always cap
tured the friendship of any one with
whom he came in contact, and aver
after retaining it. The confederate
soldiers are passing away. Time is
whitening the locks of those gallant
youths who left comfortable homes
to suffer hunger, fatigue, wounds and
imprisonment under the flag of the
Lost Cause. All that the survivors
q do is to drop a tear over their
tombs, aud cover their quiet homes
with the bright flowers Of Hope.

Epoch.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch i'm the life of the indiyid-
ual. Such a remarkable event is treas
ured i'm the memory and the agency
whereby the good health has been attain
ed is gracefully blessed. Hence it is that
so much is heard in praise Of Electric
Bitters. So many feel they owe their
restoration to health, to the use of the
Great Alternative and Tonic. If you are
troubled with any diseas of the Kidneys,
Liver or Stomach, of long or snort stand

of Electric Bitters. Sold at soc. and 81

Funston Explains.

The explanation Of Mr.. Funston's
cratic course on the silver bill as
made by himself ira letter to the Fort
Fcott Monitor, is, without exception,
the most unsatisfactory of all his at
tempts at defence, awkward and dis
ingenious as they have been. He
declares that the quertion upon which
he voted "did not relate to the coinage
of silver, land would not effect it in any
measure whatever" Is it possible
that he did not know better? He
could have found the bearing Of his
vote by questioning any one OF the
pages around him. The speakers ruling
was made to shelf the senate bill, un-
til sufficient enemies Of free coinage
could have been recalled to vote it
down, just what was done as a cOnse-
quence of this delay in action on the
part of the house, and the change of
vote by Mr. Funston helpful to accom-
plish this design of the gold bugs. Ev-
erv body but Funston understood this,
and he understood in half confident
way, until the roar from the whole
country, and especially from his own
district, convinced him that an explain
alton was indispensable, and so he gave
this 20 the Monitor. How that paper
regarded it is evidenced by its aban-
donment of his fortunes.
But the climax of stupidity and
mendacity is reached when Funston
adds, 81 have been right all the time"
Right when he voted against the rul-
ing Of the speaker, right when he vot-
ed for it, right when he voted against
it again,-"right all the time" BY
some bocus-pocus of mental legerde-
main Mr.. Fnnston may consider such
a jack lantern dances straightfor-
ward course, but his sober, intelligent
constituents cannot. They have no
logger patience with representative
whose stupidity in action upon cur
rent measures is only excelled by his
attempted apology for his plumbers.
Funston must 60 !-LdUrence Record.
