Il is rumored OH our streets that
one of our prominent merchants has
received several letters ia the past few
days from gentlemen living on the
other side of the river, who object to the
ferry landing al their fronts and will
try aud prevent the ferry from land
ing if they possibly eau. There is Que
thing certain, they cannot prevent the
boat from landing or tying up at the
bank, it does not make particle Of
difference whose land it is and we be-
lieve that the boat could claim an out
let to aoy main road. The merchants
on the Mississippi side though eau pre-
vent their labor and negroes from COM
ing to the Louisiana side by threats
and bulldozing. but they cannot keep
the boat from landing. :
Our merchants do not want TO have
any trouble withthe merchants on the
other side of the river, and they
thought that when they started up this
euterprize that they were doing like
any other town--reaching out for
business. If the merchants On the
other side of the river can compete in
prices with our merchants, then we
would get no trade; bat if they cannot
then we would get the trade. Every
poor person. these hard times should
be allowed to go where they can get
the necessities of life the cheapest, and
Lake Providence is the cheapest
market between New Orleans and
Memphis.
Our terry boat viii be here mex
week, when the question will be dis
cussed, aud we hope that our mer
chants and business men Will establish
the steam ferry if they have to carr,
| it TO the courts to do so.

SCRAP BOOKS.

There are three delights OF our child
hood which we never forget. One is
.,Mother Goose's Rhymes" the other is
the open eyed excitement with which
on winter evenings we would sit before
the big wood fire of the nursery and
hear the story of Little Red Riding
Hood, Of Jack and the Bean Stalk, OF
Snow White and Cinderella, and
the third is our scrap book.
How glad we were to get it. How
pretty and fresh it looked, and how
beautiful we thought the bright col
ored pictures; the ship at sea, the
stage coaches. the prancing horses, the
burning houses.
We might roam the world over
and never again find anything so alto
oether wonderful as that book, but a
Slight substitute for it would be a col
| lection OF photographs taken from the
old paintings.
The history of art is, to certain ex-
tent. the history of the world. Every
great painting is the 'outward visible
sign of the inward spiritual nature" OF
the man whose work it is, and every
great man is the outward, visible sign
| Of the inward spiritual nature OF the
age in which he lives.
"Back OF the canvas that breathes the
painter is limited and hidden.
Into the sculpture that throbs, the soul Of
the sculptor is bidden."
/ One might, in scrap book OF this
kind, study the different civilizations
by their different styles of art. A
statue by Praxetiles would represent
/ Greece. The face is .faultily fault
less" the nose is straight, the forehead
! low. the mouth is full. the chin is vel
rounded. The expression is cold. calm
reposeful. 1t is the product of nation
that worshiped physical beauty, that
cared little for moral rectitude ano
that was moulded; nay, crushed by th'
idea of Fatality.
\ Contrast with this Michael Angelo.
| aMoses.'' The face is torn by thu
tempest that have swept across thu
mind. Strength, not beauty; the soul
not the body, is what we see worship
ped here.
Il What stride the world mas maze
Look at the two photographs and con
trast Pagan Greece with Christian
Italy.
During the Renaissance, art treated
of actual scenes from the Bible. Thi
, WAS source. of instruction to thos
that could not read.
To-day religious paintings deal wit
abstract subjects. For instance. Mr.
Oerters .sRock of Ages A thick
gray stone cross is outlined against
dark sky. To the cross is clinginl
: the figure of woman. Beneath tn
cross are black troubled waves
mans hand is lifted out of the waves
1t is trying to grasp piece OF drll
wood.
Four years ago the artist explaine
his work The cross, of course, repre-
sents faith in Christ's sacrifice; tn
: female figure. helplessness; the water
: life's stormy sea; the mans hand
worldly streghth; the driftwood. To
: seemingly substantial prizes for. who
we grasp.
e This picture differs from the otht
two. in that it is the outcome OF a
age in which knowledge is widespread
and one in which symbol can be
q easily understood as the reality.
