A Much Travelled Irishman.

A Much Travelled Irishman.
'Tis twelve months since I came to America
Tho fortune Of me uncle to enjoy.
Bless his nsme Shure he left me the whole av 1t,
And in his will he said, "Now Pat, me boy.
Yes ought to spind solid year in thravelin',
And sure uncle didn't need to urge me much
For Thravelin' is q trick that just suits me.
So I've thraveled over all this moighty nation
From north to south and from the east to west:
I've thraveed both on land and on the wathsr.
But shure the railroad thravelin' suits me best.
And Of all the fine railroads in America,
And meself sure has thraveled on them all,
The one that heads the list for solid comfort
Is the CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE ST. PAUL.
Both for attn and for dhrinkin' and for shlapin
Their equi pment Is most costly and complete.
There is sphlendOr enough for old King solomon,
And dsinties for his thousand wives to ate.
o! I've thraveled all up and down America,
The railroads and the shteambosts tried them all.
But there's nothing can compare in solid comfort
With the CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE 4 81. PAUL.
The C. NJ. & St. P. R'y runs the
finest trains on earth. Write either

We wish to call the attention of the friends
and patrons OF the COURIER to the necessity
NJ their being on the alert, in the matter OF
judicial publications, tsheriffs sales especial
iyl as a neglect on their part. to give positive
;nnstructions as to where they desire such
advertisement published, is apt to result in
our being deprived of the patronage that
would otherwise be given to US. The sherin
of this parish has been making himself es-
necially jealous in the matter OF securing
sheriffs sales for the paper of which ne IS
director and stoekholder, and several publ!ca-
t;ons of that nature have appeared in that
paper which the parties interested would
have selected to be done in the COURIER, had
thew been consulted aud others have been
diverted from us at the special solicitation OF
the sheriff or his deputies serving the papers
In the matter of seizures
To those who prefer to patronize any other
paper in this parish We have no desire to in
terfere with their preferences, but our friends
Who wisI, to favor as with their patronage
are earnestly requested to see that the proper
officers are instructed to have the publication
done in the CoURIER-and they are especially
warned against allowing themselves to be in
iuced to consent. that the advertisement
should be done in some other paper.

The Republicans have not yet real
lied that the war is over and that the
very worst way to break the solid
South is to threaten it with force bills.
Had the Republicans cast aside the
bloody shirt, the Alliance movement
and the dissentions that have arisen
among the Democrats in several South
ern States, would have complicated
matters very seriously for the Demo-
craey in those States. The force bill
threat win admonish the Southern
whites that they cannot afford to break
the old alignments. The Minneapolis
convention did a good turn to the
