AUTHORITATIVE TESTIMONY.

Button spoke of his green old age as
one of the happiest periods in his life. all
though the kind of pleasures then expe-
rienced are, of course, different from
those. of youth: and even when decay
comes, and a man is becoming free from
the remembrance of all earthly things,
then, as Sir James Paget says (and no
better, example could be found of full
mental activity by continual work), it
may be SO ordered on purpose that the
spirit may be invigorated and undis-
turbed in the contemplation of the
Frightening future. Another writer,
speaking of old age in reference to the de-
cease of an eminent barrister, also main
tanned that the highest faculties are kept
keen by constant exercise, and the brain
vigorous by constant action and renewal
The understanding has often been in
the highest perfection in quite advanced
old age, and that has been the best period
of human life, 1t is the time when the
rage and storm of passion have died
away, when the jealousies and cares of
career have ceased and beenforgotten,
when memory fingers upon all that is
bright and charming in the past, aud
when hope scatters her most glowing
tints over fast approaching future; or,
in the words of Sir J. Crichton- Browne
himself: 1--WE are able, to see in old age
glinpses of the truth that its chief glory
consists not in the remembrance of feats
of prowess nor in the egotistic exercise

RICE.

La. Planter and Sugar Manufacturer, Jan. 80
Business in rough rice is rather dormant, ow.
ing to the uncertainty surrounding the opera
tOns Of the trust, which is trying to secure
control Of the local mills. Clean rice is active,
with q fair demand.
American Grocer, Jan. 27.
Domestic sorts are in good request aud prices
are firm, but as heretofore quoted Buyers
have been disposed to hold off, but are grad
ually coming to terms, and it is only question
of few days or weeks when boom will set in,
and prices undoubtedly go up to parity with
foreign. Advices from the South note that the
demand keeps pace with supply. Planters in
general seem to have become fully acquainted
with intrinsic worth of their product, and are
insisting on full values. If they continue to
maintain this firm front, the outcome, i. e.,
higher prices are sure at some early date.
Talmage admits that the crop in cleaned is
now likely to be 100000 barrels, but says the
increase can scarcely have any depressing eff
feet, as it is we'll known there is not enough to
meet the requirements OF the United States

Not a Threat, But a Warning.
Texas Farm and Ranch.

Texas Farm and Ranch.
By far the most important branch OF
agriculture is forage crops, to be man
| ufactured into useful products ready
| for the consumer or user, not at some
far away factory, but on tho farm, by
feeding good profitable stock. AS long
as the world stands, and man exists,
there will be demand for horses for a
hundred different purposes; for cattle
for their flesh, milk, butter, cheese,
hides, hoofs, horns and otfal for hogs
for their bacon, lard and tho hundred
and one forms into which these articles
can be converted; for sheep for their
nutritious mutton and comfortable
wool; for fowls for all the products of
the poultry yard. No system of farm
ing can be permanently successful that
does not embrace stock raising as
prominent feature. In the Carolinas
and Georgia farmers are now buying
fertilizers to an extent that renders
farming Improbable except to those
who possess more than ordinary ability
and tact, AS rapidly as possible under
the prevailing cotton mania, these farm
ers are adopting stock farming as the
only hope. The farming country is for
tunate which does not delay this inevi-
table necessity until exhausted nature
turns upon the thoughtless farmers the
walls of her wrath filled with unprofta-
BILE and prolonged poverty. Brother
farmers, take time By the forelock, and
thus avoid the evil that hangs over the
head of the slOthful and needless.
St. Landry democrat., 1892-02-06

Referring to the efforts of the ants te
enlist Northern sympathy in support OF
their move to deprive the people oil
Louisiana of large and much needed
revenue, and to induce the Yankees to
furnish the gold wherewith to bride
them into voting against their own in
terests, the Ouachita Telegraph Bulle.
tin says:
Every one who reads northern Jour
nails and magazines knows well that
some of them habltually misrepresent
the south and the southern people that
they attribute vice, laziness and igno-
rance to the masses; that every petty
crime is by them magnifed into law
less outrage aud that they favor negro
ascendency. These are the allies of the
ants, who themselves contributed not
little to the unfavorable opinion en-
tertained by many predjudiced north
erners regarding the people of the
South. Whenever a vote goes against
them, whether it be in the senate, the
legislature, state committee, primaries
or state convention, they cry to the out
side world that the people OF Louisiana
have been bribed once more. By doing
SO they foul their own nest and deserve
expulsion for SO misrepresenting their
fellow. citizens.
There is a grave question before the
people; not alone the question of ac-
ceptance or rejection of the benefits
which the adoption of the revenue
amendment would confer upon the state
at large but also whether Louisiana is
to be bought with northern gold and
kept in subsection by northern firearms
handled by some Of her unprincipled
children who seek to betray her. The
organs OF the Yankee anti party en-
deavor to throw dust in the eyes Of the
voters and blind them to the true facts
OF the case, but the matter is very sim
pie. A vote for S. D. McEnery and the
submission OF the revenue amendment
to white primaries means vote for
democratic rule and harmony within
the state !; a vote against McEnery is a
vote for northern domination which
would eventually merge into negro rule.
The issue is plain; every voter who has
the interest of the state at heart should
cast his ballot for McEuery and by his
actiongshow the northern allies of the
ants that their impertinent interior
ence is entirely uncalled for and not APP
preciated.

work of an incendiary, was placed underneath
the kitchen and spread with great rapldlty.
The house and its contents were IN total rum

Every effort was made to save the MAN puiid-

The students made most heroic effort ana
managed to save all their trunks, put all lost

The library, consisting of nearly two hundred

The total loss is estimated at no less than

The people of Babbs Bridge, determined to
have the school continued, lmmediatel y made
liberal offerssbyb way of accommodations for
boarders and materials for rebuilding, and the
Trustees OF the public school building rendered
the free use of the upper story OF that house
for teaching purposes, consequently the school
will reopen at an early date, and al contracts
made with the principal will be fulfilled.

may now be entered.
The principal desires to acknowledge with
gratitude, the kindness and assistance render

food and shelter, as well as some clothing for
his family and students on that morning.
