THE GTION

When this well known school will
be re-opened the Teachers will all be
ladies. This will be a new depar-
ture for the Guion Academy, but there
is no reason to suppose thatthe change
will not be q good one. One OF the
teachers will be a graduate of the
Normal School at Natchitoches, who
was at the head of the list of graduates
at the last session IN that excel
lent school.
Some of the finest and most success
full of the free schools in New Orleans
are in charge of female teachers.
Woman is naturally IN instructor of
children and by Intention knows
how to govern the most unruly boys
and girls.
The days have passed away when
children were ruled by the rod and
the single, and education driven into
their bodies over the back and not by
the eyes and ears.
Kindness, firmness and g%entleness
will rule the widest girl or most sava-
&c boy, when force would only arouse
the most angry passions.
There is no reason to imagine that
ladies in charge of the Guion Academy
cannot as successfully manage the
children who attend that school ds
male teachers could.
Governors and instructors are the
qualities needed-not masters and
rulers.
The children are no worse IN Thlbo-
daux than they are elsewhere. Ii
woman can govern public schools else
where. as many of them do il
Lafourche, Terrebonne, and elsewhere
why IAN they not do SO in the Guion
Academy.
Since it's organisation, forty years
ago, Guion Academy has never had
but one male teacher, whilst there
have always been one, two or three
ladies engaged therein.
If ladies have always successfully
governed two thirds or more OF the
pupils therein why should any one fee
any anxiety through fear that the.
cannot manage the remaining third

Government Note Paper.

Anybody who wishes can go into
the big Crane & Co.'s factory at Dalton,
Mass, and see the workmen place the
blue silk on the machine that make the
paper tor all the United States notes.
The silk comes in spools, and is made
by Bedding, of Northampton. 1t is
sold here in Bangor. There is no more
secret about it than there is about the
water flowing yer the dam above the
tall bridge. The real secret is in the
composition of the paper. The silk
thread idea is secured by patent, to be
sure, but the making of the paper, the
compound of the ingredients, is safe in
the head of j. Murray Crane. who re-
ceived the art from his father, who
made bonds for Salmon P. Chase,
Lincoln's Secretary of the Treasury
away back in war times, The pure
linen pulp is in a big room, looking
for all the world like any linen pulp
Then comes j. Murray Crane with a
9ripsack. He and the "grip" ente,
the room together, and it is presumed
that he locks the door, for the door il
locked on the inside, and the "grip'
does not look able to do it. They are
closeted a half an hour. When the,
come out the pulp goes to the paper
machine, and Mr.. Crane and the gri,
go home. But the pulpi is changed by
that visit, and nobody has been able
to penetrate the Crane secret, The
company gets about fifty times al
much for that paper as for other liner
paper made in tie same mill.-Baaqo,

A MIXTURE
By UNCLE SILAs.

Whilst on a march from Bastrop III
in Louisiana to Monticello in Arkan-
a in 1864, the command halted, for a
few moments near a good spring OF
water. Near by was a hewed log
double house with a passage between
the two rooms. Through this passage
the boundry line separating the two
states passed, placing one room in
Arkansas aud the other in Louisiana.
1t used to be in the early days a head
quarter for gamblers and toughs who
had only to move INTO
one or the other room when the sheriff
might come 10 put themselves outside
of the jurisdiction of that officer.
In ea1ly days. it wasa conspicuous
place, being the only suitable building
for parties, balls, &c, any where in
that region.

On last Sunday evening Leo McEvers
shot and badly wounded a man by the
name of Boudreaux, on DR.. Claverie's
plantation in the Chacahoula settle
ment o. the Parish of Terrebonne.
From the reports it seems that Bou-
dreauX had acted falsely with a daugh-
ter of McEvers, and when the latter
learned the condition in which his
daughter was found, notified BOu-
dreaux that he would give him eight
days to marry the ruined girl, and that
if he did not do so hewould shoot him.
TO this Boudreaux paid no heed. The
time having expired on that evening
the incensed father sought the young
man and asked him if he was going to
marry his daughter, on receiving a re-
ply in the negative McEvers drew his
pistol and fred two or more shots one
of which entered the body of Bou-
dreaux. inflicting a dangerous wound,
from which he has since died.
This is a terrible remedy for a great
wrong, but nine teDths of the people
will say .all honor to McEvers."
McEversgave himself up and was put
under fifty dollars Bond to appear be-
fore the District Govt, which was
promptly given.

The crops generally ia Louisiana
are reported to be N good condition.
In this section, whilst some fields Of
good corn are reported the general re-
suit will be a poor yield of that cereal.
Many planters will have to purchase
forage who are not in the habit OF
making such an expense. The rains
are bringing up the rice finely, forming
arge heads, and grains. Some of that
grain will be ready for the sickle very
soon.
