with punctuaity by Mr.. Dejean, whose
duty requires it of him. We lodge IL
complaint against this, but would sug-
gest to our Town Council, with all due
respect, that something should be done
and that too without delay, to make the
market stalls f..0re comfortable during
the winter season than they are.
The north, cast and west sides are
wide open to winds and rains, and the
renters of the stalls are compelled to
stand upon the cold rock floor from

era, as the States has shown before in
detail, the taxpayers of Louisiana were
robbed bodily, 10y Gov. Warmoth, (who
is red hot Ant) and his gang, OF one
hundred millions of dollars.
Because Louisiana has a heavier pub
llc debt than any other State in the
Union, for three-fourths of which the
people never derived a cent of benefit.
Because the rate of taxation in most
OF the parishes of the State is couiva
lent to the cOntiscation of the revenues
OF property, aud hence, there can be no
great advancement until that rate of
taxation is reduced, or at least its in
crease checked.
BECAUSE III Louisiana, notwitilstard-
ing the funny figures of Col. Jack, the
Superintendent of Education, illiteracy
Is on the Increase, as it is in 10 other
State in the Union.
Because other States chartered lotter-
les for purposes OF revenue, until there

slve taxation, the taxable values of
property having increased to such an |
extent that lotteries could be dispensed |
With without burthening the taxpayers, /

1t is wonderful to think how saiutlv
antl-lotteIyltes worm themselves into |
the secrets of the lottery. Judge Gunby |
says that john 4. Morris gave 10000 |
to the II larrison campaign fund the |
Alexandria Town Talk says he paid
SoO,OOO for the late democratic demon |
Stratlon III New Orleans, and Rev. b. NJ.
Palmer now tells us that the lottery
makes over S25,OOOOOO clear
money every year These startling
are no doubt true, or they
never would have been made in such
positive shape, but somehow or other
they are little too tough for digestion
by the average bump of human cIeduli-
~, ana remind us OF the wicked verse
IN one OF Burns poems which reads.
Some books are lies from end TO end
\ AAno some great lies We're never penned,
+ eh ministers they have been kenncd,
III holy rapture,

t.pq nail it wi scripture
me highest conception that Coy.
\lcholls ever had of the duties of his
l!gh position is the official decapitation
It men who refuse to be subservient TO
lis whims and have independence
nongh to hold his narrow and selfish
'ollcy in contempt. Although his ad-
nlnlstratlon is now nearing its close, in
lsgTacc even with his own little coterie {
t politicians, he is exhibiting the petty /
1allce OF his nature by removing from I
filce every man who has dared to as I
ert his democratic fealty in spite of |
ersonal ,dictation and factional fury, t
nd members Of the State central COM
;ittae in New Orleans are particularly a
larked for veIoIl and veagence. All. t
ell, it is but few months longer at
ie most: When the next election has Il
one and gone, we may have the lottery b
u another term or not, and in either p
use VIZ? can endure it, but, thank s
eaven! !! next spring ends the career of 8,

The New Delta says the ants make
charges against the Lottery Company
and the pros never do more than deny
them. They never produce any proof
that What the antis charge is not true
This is the SUBSTANCE, in Il nut shell, of
recent article taken by the Clarion
from that paper.
We do not remember ever to have
seen a more distinguished specimen of
cheek.
Who that knows the paper would
think for one moment that it is neces-
sary to fuTnish proof of the falsity of
any Of its utteranees about the Lottery
Company?
And who is so silly as not TO know
that no one is expected to prove the
negative of an accusation? The Delta
breaches sermons of a peculiar charac-
ter, and the Clarion sits up in the amen
corner to repeat or echo all it says.
Wouldn't it be a first class joke, if an
person or paper would seriously set to
work to dsprove the baseless accusa-
tory assertions of either concerning the
Lottery Company
