Woman's Greatest Charm.

I am quite sure that men regard
''sweet simplicity" as the greatest
charm in women, and especially in
girls, writes Ethel ingalls,. This
does not mean simplicity in the
simpering sense, but an absence of
that affected air of boldness and
mannishness which has lately been
assumed by too many really lovable
girls. Then, too, sincerity in ex-
preston is one of the characteristic
les that charm men. To be sincere
and candid the girl in society need
never be abrupt nor self-assertive.

How to Treat a Wife.
(From Pacific Health Journal. }

First, get wife; second, be patient.
You may have great trials and perplexities
in your business, but do not therefore,
carry to your home cloudy or contract
ed brow. Your wife may have trials,
which, though of less magnitude, may be
hard for her to bear. A kind word, q
tender look, will do wonders in chasing
from her brow all clouds of gloom.-To
this we would add always keep a bottle
OF Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the
house. 1t is the best and is sure to be
needed sooner or later. Your wife will
then know that you really care for her
and wish to protect her health. For sale

hVNCSeCu IOf GtuDcZZleuAcnCs
A special to the Picayune, from Alex.
andria, under date of May 10Th, says:
Deputy Sheriff M. V. Lecaze, of this
place, arrested Albert Brown Watts. at
Pollock, who is wanted for embezzlement
in Livingston. Polk county, Tex, where
Watts resided for a number of years, be-
ing a leading attorney in that town.
The act on which the indictment was
found was committed seven or eight
years ago. The accused has been in this
section for ever three years in the saw
mill business, and recently became the
SENIOR partner Of the firm of Watts & Nc
Dowell, general merchandise firm of
Pollock, Grant parish, where he was
much respected by every one. The sher-
i'll OF Polk county, Tex, who was wired
OF the arrest of Watts, is expected here
by any train to take the prisoner to Tex
as, where all of his numerous Louisiana
friends hope he will be able to substan-
tate his innocence.

Dominick O'Malley, the ex-con-
vict and all round crook, who has
been singing mud through the
columns of the City Item for the
last six months on almost every
prominent man in the State who
opposed him and his methods, had
quart or so of gu t,r filth thrown
in his own face last week at Baton
Rouge, by another convict and
crook, Louis Claire, who first knock
ed O'Malley down, and then pro-
ceeded to abuse him in vulgar
and outrageous manner. Claire
was tried before the authorities of
Baton Rouge and plead guilty to a
number of charges, all except dis
charging firearms, claiming that
his pistol was discharged accident
ally. He was fined sixty dollars
and costs, which he paid, and then
left for New Orleans, it is to be
hoped sadder and wiser man.
Claire is a professional gambler
and dive-keeper, and it is remark
able that the board should have
recommended him to the governor
for pardon.

The report made to the General
Assembly by the State Normal
School at Natchitoches, for the
past two years, (since the last sit
ting of the Legislature, } shows that
institution to be in a most flourish
ing condition. The 256 students
for 1856 represent 43 parishes of
the State, indicating the general
distribution of its patronage to be
from every section of the common
wealth. Extensive additions and
improvements have been made to
the institution, and it now ranks
second to none of its class in the
State.

For every quarter in a mans pocket
there are dozen uses; and to use each
one in such way as to derive the great
est benefit is question every one must
solve for himself. We believe, however.
that no better use could be made OF one
of these quarters than to exchange it for
a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, medicine that
every family should be provided with.
