Notes with Confession Of Judgement and
Waiver of Citation.

The Supreme Court, Justice Breaux
the organ. rendered q decision at the
late term at Monroe, the Importance
of which is far reaching. 1t will prob
ably be years before the people of the
State will realize its full force and eff
feet. Merchants and wide awake bust
S men. however, will quickly avail
themselves of it. and it is the duty Of
the newspapers to spread abroad
among the people the full bearing and
decision. The court decided that Il
debtor in executing q note may en-
body In the note Il confession OF judge
ment and d waiver of citation. That
the holder of stich a note may sue up
on it and obtain judgement without
citation or notice to the obligor, though
four year land by parity of reasoning
any length of time previous to pres
cription) may have interviewed since
the confession and waiver OF citation.
Therefore, when a person has given,
such a note he will never know when
judgement is entered against him IN
til notified Of the judgement. He will
be barred from an appeal, and if pos
cCSoCo VI dih iSN1t tSl(IIcS. tiioco IN

entered, viii be driven to an action OF
nullitg orstle Institution of ar indi-
pendent counter suit. This ruling
will cheaper and expediate litigation
and greatly facilitate the collection of
debts, and therefore ought to cheaper
interest on money lent. 1t this ruling
is Derseyertg in. and we see no reason
why it should not be, and no legisla-
ton necessitating a change occurs,
business mel aud capitalists will Ger
tainly adopt the use of notes contain
ing confession of judgement and waiv-
er of citation. Borrowers, purchasers
and other executing notes will do well
therefore to note carefully the reading
of notes signed by them, and never
make a payment on such a note with
out having it endorsed on the note
and the endorsement signed. The
reason is obvious.-Erchaage.

The Love of Friend for Friend.

His friendship. call it what you will
For love has many shades, you
know.
He is my friend no more, yet still
BIS friendship warns and sends a
Through every bounding pulse, and life
Seems worth the living since it
came;
It holds my heart, nor jar nor strife
Can fret OF fan the steady flame.
'Tis like a garment soft and strong,
Which wraps me round from hour
to hour,
Or like the music of song
That s%ootlles me with its tender
power.
However chill the windsmay blow,
Peace holds tue portals of my heart;
I smile that | such Joy should know,
| in such friendship have a part.
Such love as this from friend to friend
Holds sweetness few can under
stand
No passion Jars it, and the end
Lies ovel9in the Promised Land.
Heart speaks to heart, and soul to soul.
While all our being, listening,
waits
And fancy almost hears the roll
Ofanthems sweet through heavens
gates.

Amusing TOasts.

A witty toast is sure of evoking APP
plause and promoting jollity, and good
after dinner speakers are among the
most popular of men.
That these flashes of wit are not al
ways unpremeditatedi is a fact that does
not make them less acceptable.
A rather cynical toast ran thus {:
"Woman-she requires no eulogy +;
she speaks for herself"
A gallant young man, under the
srr1e festal circumstances, referred to
one member Of the sex he enlogized

honey would blush in her presence,

dumb couple, "one guest, in the speech
of the evening, wished them "unspeak-

A writer of comedies was given q
bouquet in honor of his latest work, at
which the jovial gnest gave the toast
The authors very good health! May
he live to be as old as his jokes"
At another gathering were to lsted
''The bench and the bar: If it were
not for the bar, there would be very
little use for the bench"
As pithy was the following toast.

Learn to be Self-reIiant.

People who have been bolstered up
all their lives are seldom good for any
thing in a crisis When misfortune
comes, they look around for somebody
to cling to or lean upon. Once down,
they are. utterly helpless, aud can
never find their feet again without as
sistance. Such silken fellows no more
resemble self-made men who have
fought their way 10 position, making
difficulties their stepping-stones and
deriving determination from defeat,
than bushes resemble oaks. 1t is IN
wise to deprive young ME of the adj
vantages which result from energetic
action by assisting them over obstacles
which they ohght to be able to sur
mount alone. Did a MAI ever learn to
swim well who placed his whole conf
dence in a cork jacket? This assis-
lance may be of advantage for a few
lessons. but he who would learn to
care for himself must cast aside all
such supports.

Episode of the Hat.
HOW A PRETTY WOMAN WON A VOTE
OF THAMES IN A THEATRE.

A stately and handsome example

occupied With her escort seats in the
third TOW Of the orchestra, a Y the

1t was then observed, with much
interest that She raised her rms and
detached from her head the fashion

Her hair was bright golden, and un-

beauty. The OH gentleman sitting
behind her settled comfortably in his
chair and congratulated himself that
he bad been placed behind such a
thoughtful creature. for now he could
no, only see the stage, but = splendid

Presently two or three women in the
immediate vicinity quietly removed
their hats, having noted the admira-

had excited. .

Ia few moments the paper came
back TO the old gentleman that had
started it ON its travels. BENDING for

The presence of large foreign voting
population is not absolutely or Decessar-
lily evil. as many imagine. The perils
surrounding the suffrage are, says Hor-
ace G. Wadlin. chief of the Massachu-
sets Bureau of Statistics. in o recent
pamphlet, largely moral, and are far
from turning upon the question of race.
Class distinctions and race animosities
are fostered. not by comforting equality
of.political rights, but by the exclusion
of large classes of the population there
from. The immigrant who comes here
filled with prejudice against the social
order. and determined to remain uncon-
nected with our political system, is no
longer desired; but against him who
seeks enlarged opportunity, and greater
civil and industrial liberty. and who is
ready to do his part toward sustaining
our institutions. no criticism is valid.
A foreign-born population of the latter
class has proved essential to the pros
perity Of the State, in the industrial de-
velopment of which 1t has had SO large
share. 1t should share in our political
life. and should feel that it has a stake
in the common welfare. 1t can do this
effectively in no other way than through
the requirement of political citizenship.
The dangerous vote is the unintclligent
and the CONSCIOUSNESS vote. and this may
be native-born as well as foreign born.
Under whatever regulations as to its ex-
ercise may be wise, the suffrage should
be open to all, and, with the right,
should 60 also the duty of exercising it.
