remains Of Alberto near the grave
prepared for him, the prelate blessed
the body, recited the prayers and then
delivered with much eloquence the
funeral Grafton. He brought to light
the good qualities Of the deceased
with such warmth that many were
moved to tears. He himself seemed
affected and often his grief was so in-
tense that his. words choked him.
His sermon done he again blessed the
body, prayed over it, and then amidst
the tears and sobs Of many of those
present he ordered it to be lowered in
the sad silent grave.
The remains were soon covered and
friends withdrew in order to attend to
their occupations. The next day a

The transition from long, fingers
ing and painful sickness to robust
health marks an epoch in the life of
the individual. Such remarkable
event is treasured in the memory
and the agency whereby the good
health has been attained is gratefully
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 AL
terative and Tonic. IF you are trou-
bled with any disease of Kidneys,
Liver or Stomach, of long or short
standing you will surely find relief by
use of Electric Bitters. Sold at SOC

THE LOUISIANA CENTRAL TO
BE BUILT. L

We have never doubted but that
sooner or later the projected railroad
connecting Baton Rouge with Lafay-
ette, La, would be built. 1t would
seem now that scheme is on foot to
bring about this consummation, so de-:
voutly to be wished for by the people
of Baton Rouge. which seems more
business-like and practical than any
which has yet been discussed. The
Vicksburg Herald, of a recent date,,
says that the Mississippi Valley road,
which has lately been so active i'll con-
structing loops and feeders to its mag
nificent line, now. propose to broaden
the guage of the Little y road from
Harriston to jackson, Miss, and ex--
tend it three hundred miles further
East to the Alabama coal fields at De-,
catur, where it will make connection
with the East tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia road. They will then con-
struct the Louisiana Central from Bal.
ton Rouge to Lafayette, La, and thus
by connecting with the Texas and Pa
cific,'a the latter point, secure short
and direct line Of communication with
the great railroad system Of Texas and
the West. Judge Parkerson, Of La
fayette, was in our city Monday, and
though his business was not generally
made known, it was shrewdly surmis-
ed by some that it had some reference
to this railroad project, and the link
ing of Lafayette and Baton Rouge by:
railroad ''ties', a scheme in which he
is known to be deeply interested.
! We feel that there is something tan,
gible and practicable in the proposed
route of this new road, and are salts
fed that no great length Of time will
elapse before Baton Rouge will secure
this most important and desirable new
connection. If this should be SO the
business of lovr little Capital City
would be given an impetus never ex-.
perienced before, while the value Of
real estate would advance fifty or one
hundred percent.-Baton Rouge Truth.

THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT.
New York Evening Post. I

| New York Evening Post. j.
A recent discussion in the Parisian
intermediate reminds one Of the bat
tie between the Big-endians and the
Little-endians as to which end of an
egg should be broken. In his last
comedy, "Marquise," Sardou main
tains that a gentleman escorting a la
| dy either from table or from church,
should offer her his arm, and always
his left arm. The reason he gives is
that man should keep his right arm
at liberty, that if needful he may be
able to give cuff to any person who
does not make way for the lady or
for the more peaceful purpose Of open
I ing door which may bar her passage.
A writer in L'Intermediare states
this doctrine, but contends that it ig-
nores distinction, delicate indeed,
but which ought by no means to be
disregarded. In ordinary cases he adj
mits that the left arm should be offer
| ed by an escort, and that for Sardou's
reasons. In church, however, and in
a salon, he holds that the right arm
ought to be rendered. In churches
and salons there is no danger, and a
man ought not by his gestures or at
titudes show himself apprehensive.
In a festive hall, accordingly, giving
/ q lady ones left arm, argues suspi-
fcious temper, and may be taken as an,
insult by a supersensitive host. The
Big and -Little-endian feud was COM
promised BY cleaving the egg in the
middle. It is not clear that the eti-
|quette of right and left arms can be
soeasily settled. In treating this mat
ter I1ntermediare mentions an odd
customs now in vogue on the French
stage. At the operaa man never Of
fers his arm or hand % q queen or a
princess, but presents TO her double
fist lie poing ferm6.
