TO our 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, (sheriffs sales especial
siyl, as 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 u.s. The sheriff
of this parish has been making himself es-
pecially Jealous in the matter of securing
sheriffs sales for the paper sf which he is
director and stockholder, and several publica-
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
10 the matter of seizures.
To those TAO prefer to patronize any other
paper in this Sarish 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
duced to consent that the advertisement
should be done in some other paper.

= There have been about $50 bank
failures in the United States since the
first day of January, but only twenty
five tff these occurred in the Southern
States. In a recent speech at q ban
quet in New York, Comptroller Eckels
referred to this fact, and complimented
the Sonth on its conservatism, industry
and enterprise, and said that its ample
resources all tend to conditions of pros
perty and promise which deserve the
confidence and admiration of the coun-
try. He contrasted the patient and
plodding South with the boastful and
" blooming" West, and pointed to this
section as the best field for the employ
ment Of capital and enterprise.
