For many years the river in its

Court Convened.
GONDoLPI & RACCICH.

Monday, precisely as the city clock
told the hour of IL, Judge Taylor
took his seat and Col Ward, in loud
and stentorian voice, called the court
to order, announcing that the term of
the District Court had begun. Clerk
Leonard, in d high tenor key, began
to call the list of attorneys, of which it
seems their names are legion. As
their names were called civil suits
were set-the first week being devoted
to civil business.
After this Coils. Young and Ward
proceeded to call the grand jury. His
Honor Judge Taylor named Mr..
James Herndon as foreman and the
following gentlemen compose the
grand jury for the term: Richard
Boney, A. L. Hall, Justin Parisher,
John b. Morris, j. T. Enright, j. b.
Ardis, j. Nj. Ford, j. Jones, George
Freeman, &. H. Russell, G. G. Hart.
J. Ratcliff, f. A. Conway, A. Levy,
w. III. Johnson.
Judge Taylor then delivered his
charge, which was quite exhaustive,
on many subjects. After calling at
tentIon to the fact that many petit
cases would come up before them,
which put the parish to much ex-
pense, he insisted that both 81 les be
well examined into and offenders be |
brought to justice.
He called special attention to the
road overseers, and where anyone had
not fully complied with the law he
should be promptly dealt with, as the
law compelled man to act as overseer
he wanted to or not.
His honor took up the matter where
in the law forbids the sale of news
papers and other literature that is
to have an evil and perni-
cious effect on the minds of the pub
lie should be prohibited and those
punished who cause it to be brought
nto the State for dissemination.
There being a case in point already
o come before them; in other words
he Sun ought not be allowed to cast
is rays horizontally on Shreveport.
After the reading of the charge the
yrand jury retired and court adjourn
