TO oulr Friends and Patrons.

WE wish to call the attention of the friends
and patrons of the COURIER to the necessity
of their being on the alert, in the matter Of
judicial publications, tsheritf's sales especial
iyl Us neglect on their part to give positive
instructions 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 sheriff
ofthis parish has been making himself es-
pecially jealous in the matter of securing
sherif7s sales for the paper of which he is
director and stockholder, and several pubica
tions of that nature have appeared in that
paper which the parties interested would
have selected to be done in the COURIER, had
they 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 patrohize any other
paper in this parish we have no desire to in
terfere with their preferences, but our friends
who wish to favor us 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
inced to consent that the advertisement
should be done in some other paper

no more right to complain than the old prac-

to complain of competition in their respective
lines of business. Competition is the life of

This is the veriest bosh and claptrap.
More than this-it is dishonest pre-

leading, and whileit may at casual
glance have superficial semblance to
truth, it is in fact as false as the abode
of Satan itself. Imagine ii you can a
practitioner at the bar who. in order to
deprive rival of fee, Systematically
takes all the best paying cases for moth

charge every patient that his rival might
get; merchant who gives away his
goods and those of other people in order
to prevent his rival from selling any
imagine this, we say, and you will come
much :aearer to correct appreciation
Of the MATTER, much nearer to the truth.
That competition is the life of
trade is very true, and no one
can reasonably object to fair and

of conducting his paper cannot fairly
be dignified with that term, for it is
