A Fortunate Parish.
'Ihle .nph'le of ('laitorne have so long
beel favored with lirat-rate parish ofic.ials,
that they can hardly appreciate themr as
houldn. The fact, however, that our parish
,ilw.s are filled by emiiet and competent
,ren is owing to the good judgnment of the
l,wl., in making their selection.
Ircw Ferguson, clerk of the court, is
mut.,rnally recoguircd to be the cleverest
mum inl the parish. He is te.side that a
. anlule nlUd holtnt ofticial, who has learnedi
1 l, duties lfilly andl discarges them well.
For the mauy kithdtlus he shows others he
"ill sowine iay receive his reward.
We debht if thelre is a better parish judlge
in thI State than Nelson J. eott. To an
,iceellni t knowledge of the law lie coml
blnes an experience of malny years, and i.i
i,,,wasd of a clearuisa atl atrtength of
paidg.l'nt that rarely leads him aMtrty.
)uir Shcrtt. Kirkpatrick, is an old twlheel
i.,rn at the buhiuerss, poliar, artie, andlll
aoturat.. and is ill make as good a shlertt
as 'Fr.itnk A. ik did, whirh is about cx
hauatiai, the langiagei of patnegyric.
Our prenetit aseesaor has compllted th."
as.suan,"t·l ill the tim, reluared by law,
andill t will compare favorably with aliy
li t ew.otnaismet.
olur Iresent Tax Collector, Ay.r- k, is
well tup with his businaes, and while hik
tug after the itltert..t of the State, is as
IInIlsilgent to tax payers aA a regard to his
duty will pernit.
The service., of Johni IR. Itailise.y as
parish Itenrler, are simply indliapenlsale.
We have not a dboll,t buit take hism all in
all hei. is ill ecry r.i.ect the best ltc.,order
ill the St:ate. The publlic interent is per
hiaps as ni'lch or 'Imore largely iltterestsle in
tlhe orreit Ianaiag.nnut of his ofiti. than
Ialin st any other in the parish. lie has,
however, a life entate, in it so long ais lhi
rI oiris are elective by this lnlple.
Lisbon Camp-Meeting.

The meeting resulted in the citnvebiio
and reclamation of more than thirty souls,
and the aeeoelon to the ('hurch of eigh
teein menlern.
All the tentst were nicupiel, and the cln
gregatious large and alttentivei. The anlti
t.rw*. express great ailpreciation of thie tult
ntn .d zeal and energy of the minaisters in
:ttletidance.
Murder.
On lalday evening, just after dlark, two
unknown men entered the cabin of S4eaborn
l.ove. a coloredl man, living on the place of
Mr. Wamble, alout three miles froau town,
and shott Lave three times. frim the etreits
of which lie died in a short time. A negro
girl in the house at the time was also shot
itt the hip: the wound, however, is not con
nilereid daogeritin. Five shot. in all were
tired, and the parties decamped without
asy clue to their identity. The causme of
the shoutiug is involved in mystery. For,
although LoaPe was just]y regarded a a
very had man, it is not known that he had
say elnemy who would be likely to resort
Iothat mlode of redress It in *llevedl by
tsany of oear eltlzen that he iredl tile town
whitu it was bursrel l;st December; hut the
Svihtoore was hanlly mffieleut to hlave t-.
ken his lift, and had that been the inane uof
his being killil it would have takeu place
long ago.
oeh ects are to be greatly delrecatnl,
for no umatter how had a man ia, he i enti
tied to the protection of the law.
