Death of an Aged Veteran.

Mr.. Henry Barnacastle was found dead
about O'Clock this morning sitting in q
chair in his bed room at Haughton.
Mr.. Barnacastle was born in North Caro-
lima during 1880, and came to this parish
during 1849, making his home in the Fill
more neighborhood, where he lived until his
death, being engaged in agricultural and
mercantile pursuits. At the time of his
death he was one of the Justices of the
Peace in ward six. He served in the Con-
federate Army during the war of 1851
as member of Company B, marks
Guards), Twenty-eighth Louisiana Regi-
ment, Mouton's Brigade, Polignac's Divis-
ion, Trans Mississippi Department, and
was member of Loudon Butler Camp,
No. 400, U. C. V. He represented his
camp as one of the delegates at the annual
Confederate reunions held in Memphis last
year and in Mobile April last. He was a
jealous Mason, and member of Fillmore
Lodge until the surrender of its charter
near forty years ago, when he affiliated
with Bellevue (now Haughton) Lodge.
In point of residence, Mr.. Barnacastle
was, perhaps, the oldest citizen of Bossier
Parish. He was a good man, and his
death is regretted by host of friends. II
came to him peacefully, and alone he Tough,
his last battle and passed silently into "the
land of dreams" and eternal rest.

The Confederate Cemetery at Franklin.

About six months ago cyclone swept
over Williamson County, Tenn. The Con-
federate Cemetery, where lie the dead of
every Southern State that took part in the
Battle of Franklin, was in its track. Nearly
every head marker was in some way broken
or displaced. The large monument dedi-
Gated to the unknown soldiers was blown
down and broken to pieces. The shade
trees were nearly all blown down and in
some instances the trees unearthed the
bones of soldiers buried beneath them.
There are 1885 soldiers buried in the Con-
federate Cemetery at Franklin killed in the
battle at that place, November 80, 1884.
This cemetery is now wild briar patch.
There are but few Confederates living in
Franklin, but they are doing the best they
can to repair the damage done by the ter
rible cyclone and to care for the sacred
spot where sleep their last sleep our peer
less heroes who fell in one of the bloodiest
battles fought during the Confederate War.
Small donations are solicited for this pur-
pose, which will be thankfully received.

this cemetery remain in its present condi-
ton" Send your contribution to r. N.

B0ssier Point,

Ninock, Tuesday, July ia good crop
of oats has been harvested. The yield OF
alfalfa from three cuttings has been about
four tons per acre. This crop can be cut
at least twice more, but generally the
summer cuttings are light. Corn in this
section will produce an average of forty
bushels per acre, while the yield of many
acres will be double this amount. This
excellent crop is due chiefly to a more in
telligent system of farming and the more
careful selection of seed. Cotton pros
poets are good for fair crop. Weevils
are not appearing in such disastrous num-
bers as during past cropping seasons.
However, the yield depends much on the
weather during the next thirty days. Pea
nuts, cane and peas are all Furnishing.
