SLIDELL AND PEARL
WILLIE.


TIE festal season is nearly upon
p. when the 25th day Of Decem-
Der rolls around, no matter what
our joys and sorrows have been
during the year, then We should
abandon I'll dull care to the winds,
and with . jest and good will to
ward all men, celebrate the bic ssed
Christmas day.
1t is safe to say the holidays will
be enjoyed BY the good people Of
Pearlville and Slidell. The fatted
sl'oat is already grunting and the
Christmas turkey gobbles louder
than ever, as the suspicious day
approaches.
Miss Nellie O'Rourke has been on
. visit to friends in New Orleans and
returned home l0vlier than ever.
A building that will he an in-
pr0vement to Slidell is the hand
some new store that is being erect
ed for Salmen Bros.
This town must certainly have q
large number Of visitors, when the
owners OF the principal hotel are
compelled to put an addition to &C.
comodate its guests.
A nutter Of excitement swept over
the town the other day. 1t was
caused by an clipping couple from
Mississippi, who came down in hot
haste to procure a license and get
married. The youthful couple
were put to some trouble to get the
necessary documents, but at last
everything was Strengthened and
the twain were made one. The
happy couple intend to reside in
Slidell.
DR.. Duborg was in town this
week.
Oysters are cheap here. Three
boats ply Bayou Vincent. and you
can get the luscious bivalvs fat and
salty, delivered at your door for
SOC a hundred.
PEARLvILLE.
An enjoyable candy pulling was
given at the residence Of S. ID.
Crawford ON Thursday last.
Among those present were Laura
Crawford, Ida Crawford. Camelia
Provost, Olivia Provost, Peter Pro-
vost, Arthur Provost, John Peter
con, Acey Talley.
Mrs. A. ]. Rousseaux has re-
turned home after . pleasant visit to
FlOeenville.
The negro problem has been both
ering some of our smartest men for
. long tune. That is, what to do
with him. Here is what q negro
can do that attends to his own busi-
ness and lets politics alone. John
Gilbert lives on Apple Pie Ridge.
Ten years ago he began sticking
orange trees in the ground. AS
they grew he fooled around them
with q hoe and kept putting Others
ont.
To-day John Gilbert has six
hundred thrifty orange trees, the
majority of which are bearing.
This season he harvested % barrels
a the golden fruit, &nd mex: year
he expects his trees to yield no less
than 500 barrels OF fine sweet or
aages.
In Eve NJ six year hence. II good
lock attends him, that man will
have . fortune in his hands.

CONVICT LABOR IN THE SQUARE.

The proposition to substitute honest labor
for the convict labor, which is now used in
the Capitol Square. and TO a certain extent in
the Capitol building il one that for number
of years has been constantly pressed upon the
| attention of the General Assembly. but so far
| without success
Ii is not 10 be supposed that the members
of our Legislature have any preference for
working men in striped clothing. The ex-
PLANTATION OF their retention in the Capitol
Square has always been that it entailed a
smaller expense upon the State. which was
already required to support them. than free
/ labor would do. 1t was a measure of
economy which was thought to be demanded
by the general principle which the State was
seeking to apply in every branch Of tie pub
lie administration.
Whether it would not have been better to
have relaxed the principle in this instance IS
aquestion which might well have received
an affirmative reply. The ohense to the sense
Of public propriety which was caused by the
presence of convicts in the Capitol Square and
building might very we'll have justified the
State in making small disbursement of the
public funds 10 remove so repulsive an eye
sore. To have q small body OF convic,s
clothed in their suggestive prison garb. not
merely tramping about the walks in the
square, but even brushing against refined
visitors while in the act of examining the
curiosites in the library, is spectacle that
casts FERROUS reflection upon Virginia, and
has raised sense of shame in many Of her
sons who have witnessed it.
The present General Assembly has many
new representatives in its membership, whose
susceptibilites have not yet been hardened
by familiarity with this spectacle. and We
sincerely hope that when they come to vote
on the question Of abolishing convict labor
about the Capitol grounds and building they
will not only favor the proposition themselves
bit use their influence to alter the views Of
those of their associates who are at present
opposed to a change.
This is measure in which the people 81
the whole Commonwealth are generally in
terested, but TO the people of this city it is
measure which is of peculiar personal impor-
lance. for Richmond possesses a special
property IN the Capitol Square and building.
The daily Disagreement of these localities by
the presence OF convicts is more than usually
odious to our people. Now that the financial
condition of the State promises to improve
the Legislature should not hesitate to spend |
the few hundred dollars which will he re-
CURED to remove tho blot which is causing so
much dissatisfaction.

PROTECTION OF THE TrRRAPIN

II is decidedly pleasing 10 find att this time.
when the State has not yet fully recovered
from the reaction caused by the recent boom
in real estate that the Committee Oh the Ches-
apeake and its Tributaries have reported favor
ably on the bill 10 furnish additional protec-
tion TO the terrapin
This protection 1t may be remarked in pass
ing. is 10 doubt regarded by the terrapin,
which is an animal Of unusual acuteness, as
may be discovered by the glance of his eye
when his head is thrust above water in the
light in which the sound Democrat. regards
the high tariff of the Republican is. as
a protection which does not protect. How
ever, the terrspin, Judging him by his last as
sociations in life. is an animal OF aiistocratic
procliyities, and is probably very much
obliged to our General Assembly for taking
steps that will save him from the clutch Of
every marauder who comes along and pre-
serve him for the table of the millionaire.
The interest which our legislators are now
showing IN his temporary welfare is highly
encouraging. 1t would seem 10 prove that
they are confidently anticipating the re-
turn of brighter days days when the visions Of
the now historic boomer will be fully realized
and terrapin stew will become tho ordinary
food of the owner Of town lots.
The General Assembly is to be warmly
commended. not only for its foresight. but
also for the pains which it is taking to provide
an abundance OF terrapins for the period Of
prosperity which its action foreshadows.
When that period arrives the health of the
Assembly will be drunk with unexarnpled
heartiness, and it Will be lauded to the skies
for having exhibited in anticipation so lust
an appreciation OF one Of the most delightful
things OF tins life
II this bill becomes law. the terrapins
of the Chesapeake can during the ,
greater portion OF each year dispcrt |
themselves in the waters of that beaut- |
full bay in perfect safety. and in the midst of /
their mysterious communines can whisper an |
eulogsm upon the Virginia legislator. which
faint as it will be. will find an echo. though |
for different reason. IN the heart of every
man who believes fortune is We. 10 be de-
