Some editors have very erro
n'ons conception of The duty and
mission Of the journalist. They
seem TO think that it IS their duty
to critics. and abuse every pub
lie official, and to oppose every
suggested enterprise for fear that
some evil might grow out of it.
In other words they think If they
are not "kicking' all the while
that they are not doing their duty.
1t is the duty of the editor to crit.
lcise the course and acts of the
public servant when he's errs or
goes wrong, but TO assume that
he is always wrong and to under.
take to point ont his duties etc,
when he, the editor, is entirely ig-
norant of the nature and duties OF
The office, betokens his stupidity
and indicates every ear mark of
the demagogue.

received in his mail box four
inches long, two inches wide and
an inch thick enclosed IN q pink
wrapper. On being opened the
box was found to contain one of
the Union metallic cartridges with
the following inscription in black
ink-"Electlon pills for old Cuff
or for Ingalls,, from Jackson Miss.
Come to see US, old Nutgalls."
Senator Ingalls, was not alarmed
at the contents of his mail, but
both he and his secretary thought
ltprudent to lay the cartridge
carefully away, as there was a
possibility that it might he more
destructive than an ordinary
cartridge. There was a slight fear
that the powder and shot might
have been extracted from the
shell and replaced with some pow
erful explosive. The Senator,
however, was of the opinion that
it was plain buckshot cartridge,
and reporter subsequently ascer
tanned this to be the fact by pry.
ing open the shell, revealing alne
large buckshot and q charge of
powder. Somebody should erect
a bomb proof around this great
North American fire eater, as seon
as possible. le.-Natlenal Democrat.

that n white democrat will be
elected to succeed the late colored

that, both of East Baton Rouges'
representatives were republicans
and colored men.
