!NROUGDEO!R!oErreEsa, T opgh an editorial in the " top Sentinel, the startling inforlna- k `tion reach uas t eo of the West Fel ciana Teoile)havaotten it ti Stheir heads to prevent weIthy mer chants from purchasing lands and in -asting their means in planting on Sextensive scale; for thd alleged reason that such men having readyt mebiptý t i elr a aim nwll Iracts i to t"elvpl b4tA# ^lb anoiig thel laborers of their parish. .atties to inaungurate a reign of ter i Vt, the effee of rhich wilt be-to. cause. moneyed 'men to investhieir surplus capital in localities offering better guarantees for the protection t tof life and property. tI ' The Sentinel tells us that a few nights ago, a lot of lumber for build ; ing firposes was deliberately barn : ed.oida place owned by Mr. Freyhqn, I a public spirited merchant of St. ý Francisville, who had intended to t apply his earnings towards the devel opment of the agricultural industries I Sof the parish in which he has amassed4 a considerable fortune. Strange to say, that instead of be inug applauded for the good example he is setting to that too numerous class of *len who "pull up stakes" from a community, when they have gathereda sufficiency, Mr. Freyhan, is set upon and deiterred from the Traisenorthy object of turning idle acree into productive fields. We can't believe that the good peo pie of West Feliciana are going to ive countenance to so destructive a movement, which must soon result in ring away from its limits not I :ly capitalists, but the laborers, who dill feel themselves under a subjec on which does not permit them to elect their employers. It's n9 use to talk about attrat ing nts to any section where their perty is liable to fall a prey to tlk h ofthe incendiary, so soon as the t ves of the soil perceive that they Raquiring weelti, Sti'oh movements are absolutely cdal to the development of the urces of our State, and go to jus the many slanders which have sed the current of emigra on to pass right through us settle itself in the comparatively 1 rile wilds of Texas. Louisiana can't afford to bear this tgma, now that she has freed her islfrom the rule of the carpet-bag r. The patriotic people of West Feli a, we are sure, will not allow the of Jugernant to be thrown across pathway of'.the Chariot of Pro . which, atlast, is moving down n the South and Louisianayfreight with a prosperity never before ..

Mr. Rogers obtained permission to introduce a bill authorizing the e city to take charge of the present' e State-House when it is vacated bye 4 the government, and make the nec- p essary repairs upon it for the pur- a pose of using it for a court-house. a .*On motion of Mr. Parlange consid eration of the printing was postpon- j ed until to-day. House bill No. 14, providing for. the repair of the State-House at G Baton Rouge, passed its third reading.' Mr. Fotenot, chairman of the com- P mittee on auditing and supeirising ' the expenses of the Senate, obtained a consent to report on House bill No. c 30, referred to the committee. The a report was favorable and the bill g passed its third and final reading., The distinguished visitors from a France were then announced. Thd tf Senators arose, and the visitors, ac c compained by thO Gbvernor, State. and military officials, entered the C Senate Chamber and ascended to the 0 President's platform, wherethey were ' introduced to the presiding officer, Hon. W. A. Robertson. He then in- G troduced them to the Senate. Mr. Parlange delivered an address tl of welcome in Frencb, Gen Bon iAnger responded. A recess was then taken, during tl which time the Senators were intro duced to the visitors, After recess the visitors took their leave. The d Senate then went into executive sess ion, THE HOUSE. A Eighty-four members and a quo ram present. Mr. Quino, of New Orleans, rising to a question of privilege, called at- * on tion to the report of House pro ceedings in the Picayune,, in which it I was stated that he had yqoleptly ats tacked the State House bill and the State House Commission. He declar ed that he had dope nothing of the A kind; that it was another gentleman who had made the remarks credite4 to him, The- Speaker announced as the i committee to receive the Frenci visi tore, the appointment of which was authorized by Senate joint resolu tiong Messrs. Joffrion, Buchanan, Chretien, Voorhies, and Morel. Mr. Atkins introduced a resolution a providing for regular evening sees-' ions of the House. Went over under the rules. House bill No.45, an act maklog an appropriation to repair the build- , ing now occupied by the Louisiana 9 State University and Agrienutural , aad Mechanical College, was taken up and finally passed. House bill No. 36, an act withoriz- i ing the State Treasurer t' pay t, the Board of Supervisors of the Louis iana State Univerpity ai Agrieultu , ral and Mechanihal College tie old Sbalance due the Seminary fund now on his books, came up and was final ly passed. I Honse bill No. 20, the license act, t was taken up and the House resolv . ed itself into a committee of the whole to i'onsider it. While section 13 of the act was r under consideration the committee pf 1 the whole rose and the House resum 7 ed its session, for the purpose of re ceiving the French visitors. On the entrance of the distinguish F ed gentlenien, they were received - and welcomed by Senator Ogden. e To Speaker Ogdeh'e address a re sponse was made by Gen. Boulanger. After having cgncluded considera e tion of the bill, the conwiittee of the y whole rose and reportql it to the . House with the amendments, Speak er Ogden in the chair. Mr. Coegrove moved' that the re 6 port of the committee of the whole I. be adopted, and on this motion M1. a Meidenhain, of Orleans, took the 5foor on a questian'of privilege. Mr. Hieidenhain said: "Before this 8 bill is passed I 4esire to warn the gentleman from the country. The' have put upon a smafl class of bust ness in this city a license which is I- not a tax, but an oppression, which if will close them up. If the gentleman insist upon the amendments, I tell them that we hold the balance of pow er and have a suficient number of h the' Democratic members from the te city with us to defeat the final pas eage of the bill. WYhile the commit tee of the whole has been u seision, lI have had a conversatioa with the two tax collectors of this city, apd " heysirense methat the smaller baui i- nees cannot stand the tax put them.

The gentleman has charg- sua Sed the country members with op pressing the poorer classes. He said n Sthat if these poorer classes were not s. protected the bill would be defeated, Fo and he spoke for the city members, or o a majority of them, and the Republi- poi cans. I do not believe he is author- rqm ized to speak for either. IRS "The gentleman has charged the tree Scountry members on the floor of the is. House with an onslaught upon thb e s poor people of this city. This is not uIr so, for I myself introduced an **j f amendment reducing the smaller li- - censes to$2 50 a year, and the coun try members voted for it, while the 1 gentleman voted against it. K "All licenses have been graded, and the rich man pays as much as the poor man in proportion to in come, but no more. ' "The gentlenan has said that the Scity paid all the taxes. It is a seri ons mistake, and a singular one,. when i the ofife of the Auditor is so near.. gen Last year the city paid $81,191 li- Ge censes, and the country paid $110,000. ow, "As the gentleman' g threat to kill P'; the bill, I tell him he can do as he Dr( pleaset, but on Mm and those with Bl him fall the responsibility." A motion was made to adjourn un Stil 12 o'clock to-day, and the motion failed by a vote of 34 to 36. A motion to adjourn until 11:30 to day was then made and carried.
