My mother'.voice ! it come to me,

How oft it soothed ly rhillish grief;
No other words (could bring relief
Like fur., so genutl, awld s) mihld
"I woutl not grieve fIr that, m1y child."
I seem to lear its aecents now.
And feel her cool h:and on my brow.

And life' was na lpulse grows faint and

With throbbing heart and :whing brain,

Full of wild passions and uinr-st:

[From the Terreo.iune Patriot. ]
A (ratlnd Fizzle'.
On last Saturday the ajival tof
Packard, Casey & Co., with Kelly's
Brass btilan, to attent a .ila. JIt',ti
in: called by Hon. 1'. OHalra, cre
at4ld quite all excitetment among the
children, for they haild been told so
much of tihe Customhouse ring that
their curiosity hai been excited to
the higluhest fitch to se what they
(Packard, Cas;evr ( Co. looked like.
Seine thought they must Ie wild
n imals, others that they were toil
dietrs, as they hlir a brass band with
them, and exicted to see a few
(Hatlin guns, but were disapp inted,
ats (iatlin guns are only used on
certain occasions such as the 9lth of
Au-guist.
About half past two o'clock the
stages ar'rived, containing Lieuten
ant Governor O. J. Dunn, 5. B.
Packard, J. H. Ingraham, and syv
ral others of the Custothouse clique.
They immediately proceeded to the
platform, where the Customhouse
band made a little noise for them
to keep their spirits up. The meet
ing was called to order by Senator
O'Hara, and ere they knew them
selves, Mr. J. L. Belden was chosen
President. This caused them to
olpen wide their eyes with astonish
ment, as this proved to them that
this was failure No. 1, and that they
mnst come to the rescue, or go
under in the parish. The President
aros and made some few reinarks
in regard to the present condition
of political affairs.
!nie nn.t Governor 0. J. Dunn
then came forward and addressed
the meeting, his remarks were lis
toenec to with great attention, he
stated that he was in the control of
no clique and denounced Governor
Warmoth in the strongest terms.
The Republicans present were sorry
to see him connected with the Cus
tenlhouse clique as a tool, that is
all the sy'mpalthy they had for him.
The next to ahldress the meetitng
was J. H. Ingrahnami, who stated
that on his arrival, he hadl come toh
to the conclusion that Terrebonne
was not the placet to vent his spleen
against Governor Wa moth, but
being assur',d by the Republicans
of the parish that free speech would
be tolerated, he wouhl make a few
remarks. However, he made a tol
erable good speech.
Then arose the great, grand "Mo
gul," of the boliters, S. B. Packard,
who had blcome frightened at the
turn things had taken, and being
the last one to address the meeting
had failed to screw up his courage
sufficient to create a rumpus in the
Republican ranks of Terrebonne, s0
after a complete failure to do the
Customhouse clique credit, he took
his seat defunct, and disgusted with
the attempt to raise a hubbub for
the bolter.
The band then played some choice
pusic suck as "Dixie," ".Shoo Fly,"
etc., after which they adjourned to
Mr. Pavan's and were served with
a dinner ten up for the oceasion.
After the repast they took the stages
for Terrebonne Station wherea spe
cial train awaited to convey them to
New Orleans.
Senator O'Hara then attempted
to introduce a set of resolutions in
dlor;ing the State Central Executive
Commiittee headed S. B. Packhard,
but the people voted them down,
consequently no resolutions were
:uclpted.
Now, Messrs. Packard, Casey &
Co. can you speak for Terrebonne,
will it support the bolters? We
suggest thatyou visit our neighbor
ing parish Lafourche and try your
powers of speech there, you have a
strong support in D. H. Reese. We
say, as we said before, save your
powder for future use, for when H.
Clay Warmoth fires at you in 1872
Oatlin guns will be of no avail, your
failure then wil be far worse than
it was in Terrebonne on the 2nd
inst.
The' Outlook.
Nothing now seems to stand in
thle way of the most complete vie
tory in November of the Republi
ean party in Mississippi. The har
maonins action of the State Conven
tioi of the 30th nit gives assurance
to ltepublican hopes, and strikes
with paralysis the spasmodio mus
cles of the Objective Pointers.
The patriotic sacrifice of feeling
\hicih had been exhibited in pas
sin mate outbursts, before the meet
ing of the Convention, by those
who felt that they had ample cause
for private chagrin, is held up to
future conventions as a most com
menldaleo example. Each and
every one seemed to realize the inm
portance of unity and harmony.
Each one placed the welfare of the
party high above his own private
grief, and the result is well express
ed by our contemporary of the Pi
l/t when he says;
Sare ar persnaded from all that we have
siee and heard during the past few days
that the Republican party of the State of
MiisissiiIi li tio-dal:y stronger than ever
Ietirm. more compact, more determined,
and Iuetter organized, and that its success
in the coming campaoign is certain beyond
.ll contingency.
The artificial and fictitious class
itication of Republicans, as indulged
in rand encouraged by Democrfts,
and all those who desire to witness
a disruption of the party, we trust
will be disregarded in the future.
The jealousy engendered by the
constant encouragement of this idea
by those who from selfish motives
i#sivde the party, or from destruc
tive desire yu.lside the party, has
more than once assumed the shape
of a rock upon which the party
would one day split.
We have seen busy-bodies time
and again within the last eighteen
months, like so many Ranzy Snilles
running from the Northern to.the
Southern white Republican, and
then to the colored Republican,
earnelst in the work of disintegra
tion, encouraging the idea that there
are wings to the Republican party
and that they are hostile to each
other. Up to this time they have
not succeeded in accomplishing
anything, and now that we have
pam.sed another one of these epochs
in the history of party organiza
tions which are often dangerous,
as making a probable turning point
in a party career, we would do well
to stop and examine the question,
and analyze it thoroughly under
the light of unimpassioned reason.
The feeling, if it exists now at all,
has been smothered by the unani
mons action of the Convention and
we trust that before the coming of
another era in which it may be
called into life it will be found to
be completely asphyxiated. There
is no earthly reason why it should
exist. There is no foundation for
it in patriotism nor in policy. And
that Republican who would recog
nize a distinction between (the Nor
thern man, Southern man and col
ored man, in his cdlani for polilicesl
prefennrmeat, is unworthy of a place
in the gprt, sad aboal4 be sourg
ed from its rank'.
hen are naturally elasieb. They
are so by natare and by e4ueatin.
They are gregariouw aimal, and
are inclied-4s--ter a ssociations
ponr the aal oin~ l that eansea
"birds oa feather Sock togsthbr."
But genuine Republicanism will not
permit a smaller sub-division of
communities than that diseovered
by the question "are you a Repub
lican?" And he who encourages
the formation of internal sub-divi
sions or cliques, will, sooner or
later, find that he has done an.in
jury to himself and party which he
will never be able to repair, and he
will further find that his political
opponents will 'laugh at his calami
ty.and mock when his fear cometh."
Another important crisis has gone
by-past differences have been re
conciled-Northern men, Southern
men and colored men again firmly
united as Republicatis without sep
erate interests. Thus united, let
us go forward to victory, and, in
the meantime, be on our guard that
the vessel upon which we ride shall
not be directed in its course upon
this "rock of the clans" again.

asterisk. New York elects a Senate
which holds over. Only Iowa and
Kentucky will elect at their first
session, as they only meet biennial
ly. In Alabama, a successor to the
deceased claimant, Goldthwaite, is
to be elected. A Democrat is likely
to be chosen. If P3oldgett is not
admitted, Georgia will have only
one Senator next winter.
A WORDTO ITOUI HMEN.
It is as easy to be a good man as
a poor one. Half the energy dis
played in keeping ahead that is re
quired to catch up when behind,
would have credit, give more time
to attend to business, and add to
the profit and reputation of those
who work for gain. Be prompt;
honor your engagements. If you
promise to meet a man, or do a
certain thing at a certain moment,
be ready at the appointed time. If
you go out on business, attend
promptly to the matter on hand,
then as promptly attend to your
own business. Do not stop to tell
stories during business hours. If
you want a plaee of business, be
there when wanted. No man can
get rich by sitting around stores
and saloons. Never "fool" on
business matters. Have order,
system, regularity, and promptness.
Do not meddle with business you
know nothing of. Never bay any
article you do not need, simply be
cause it is cheap, and the man who
sells will take it out in trade.
Trade is money. Strive to avoid
harsh words and personalities. Do
not kick every sfpe in the path,
more miles can be made in a day
by going steadily on, than stopping
to kick. Pay as you go. Asa-an
orionor respects his word as he
Joe his bond. Aid, but never beg.
Relieve others when you can, but
never give what you eannot afford
torahnply becanse it is fashiomable.
Learn tosayNO. Nonecesesity for
snapping it out dog fashion; but
say it firmly and respectnly. Have
but few cofSdaata Use your
brains rather than those of others.
Learn to think ad amt fr your
sell Be rigilt:a Keep ahead

RBCENTLY DELIVERED AT SW'AITOT
UNIVERSITY
BY J. T. NEWMAN, M. D.
(CONCLUDED.)
Let us take up another part of our
subject. Is a city reeking with
filth, which threat tens to produce a
'pestilence? The work must he done by
scavengers, cartels, and watermen.
The two first must remove the filth
while the latter must then follow them
up and wash away the remains. But
shoveling and scraping do very little
good, tLue 'it removes the nnsightly
filth, but the poison still lingers.
Plenty of water is the only thing to re
move it, for if itis to Ie of any value it
requires a degree of care that is never
be towed on any street. It is not that
the system is wrong, lint that the work
is imperfectly performed. Nine cases
out of ten there is mdre filth left in
the gutters of one city than it would
take to poison fifty, hence we have
malaria. What are the best means
of prventiung the formation and re
moving the sonures of malaria. To this
great practical iquestion on whose so
lution depends the life of millions,
an answer may -e safely given it is
nothing more or less than cleanliness,
nothing farther than this can he done
nor is aimything farthir neeessary, to
remove or destroy malaria, all filth
consist in mixing two elements, name
ly:-water, vegetable or animal refuse.
It has lsen alreauly shown that' the
poison can not le formed without the
union of such compound, the removal
or destruction of such elements con
stitutes cleanliness.
I am then asked, in what way the
renquisite clenlilness can be prieserved.
My answer to that is, it is ditffrent in
different places. It i iipqossible for
Ime to give you a treatise, I can d,,
nothing more than give general rules.
I will say this, that lma:n works wisely
in imitating nature; ais often as he op
poses her he willineet dtisa.l linthnu.t,
if he does not suitfr !uisfortutn,. Let
him receive his lessons from her anti
lie will rarely miss his aim. Her chief
agents are four: pure water, pure air,
fire,and active vegetation, atld to these
voracious animals and a lhost of small
ones who feed on filth, my catalogue
is then comlete. Ily the judicius
management of the agents mentioned
luan can remove everything that is in
jurious to his health.
Is personal cleanliiness the object?
Ksap, water; and a towel will do it. It
removes the filth and we feel clean.
This is a measure that is of more
importanlce than medicines, and I wish
that I could say that it was in general
use all over our country. Is a ship or
house to be cleaned ? good pure air is
certain to succeed. Foulness heyond
this knows no m:ster linbut lire, which
is competent to subdue all things that
are combustible.
Whitewashing is a sloven manner of
concealing filth, I will grant you that
it covers it up, but does not remove it;
hence yonu will readily perceive that it
deceives the eye, lnt miasml ispresent,
and natme will not he dcreived.
Painting is much better, because it,
covers more effectually, and it can not
escape. In all wooden fabrics it is
infinitely preferalble. Whitewashing
is a common exlpedient in quarantine
establishments, also, in fumigation. It
comhbines dlorolmus matter, and by its
combustion, gases are generated tl:hat
are supposei to destroy the mIalaria.
The practice is empirical in hoth
cases. I know that this sentiment will
not he received, wrelase legitimacy
and fashion are against it, oh! would
to God that fashion was no more.
But says one it has the sanction of
the Board of Health, but in this cese
they have no divine right to dictate.
What is the oblject of whitewashing
and fumigating? To make the place
clean. When it has done that, it does
all that it is capable of doing, but
when you say to neutralize poison,
letI me ask you whnatd poison. Your
answer to me is that, I do not know.
Then allow me to say to you, if you
do not klow, the practice is absurd,
if not gross imposition, it is jst as
bad as the exhibition of a remedy to
cure a disease of whose seat and char
aeter the exhibitor is ignorant, the
nostrum is as likely to destroy the
patient as to cure him. The practice
is empirical, and sciebee sholoplj rown
on iLt
It is a well known fact that many
more prmsas die from a partial ob
servamoe of medical direetions, than
because the directions were e~pneous
or unwise. Even a bad system well
muaagedis a less evil than a good
system jis-managed. Hence the
word of some poet, whomse naue I
forget, may be tfosr fqr a meiam:
For forts of gpemsmeat let foobscoun
That wheb is best adeimimtewed is best
You-will readily pereeive tht by
th lypre-l a it is more
deleterious thn while lying in a solid
m , in a anller pase it.inmmeeasm
Mie same that it is designed to
state * 9·pb h to be two iashes
du boiru ito emweUbsh,
have you gained anything? On the
contrary, you only set the poi.,.: to
work whic youn sought to destrh, .
I consider street cleaning a,. it is
generally performed the great.st evil
that can be inflicted on the inh:.li
tants of a city. It begets conddence
only to betray, and promises hIalth
only to destroy. To be con ihtld ,f
this, let any one follow up a alung of
street cleaners, they are ignorant of
the purpose for which they are work
ing, or they wantonly disregard it,
thenbhy injuring the public hidlth.
Unless this grievance be remedied we
look in vain to see bilious malaria
Ianislhsl.
Never in my life have I seen a city
under a police, that would take the
troulle to enforce proper cleansing.
No city can:u be healthy unless water is
made to flow along its g tters several
hours during the day. Ther ispurity
in the idea, and it is pleasing to the
i sight, it takes away gloom, which is
condlucive to health Bie it known that
there is a much stronger connexion
between internal and external purity
than is generally imagined, the one is
the natural expression of the other,
and they impart to each other mutual
strength.
When malaria is already formed,
how may its etfiets on the human
economy be most certainly obviated,
or in other words how may the inhabi
t&nts of a city or country most surely
preserve their health? ' ere these ques
tins asked me, I would answer hon
estly, withdraw from the affected dis
trict. But suppose your situation or
business would not permit? To such I
would say, that it is a maxim of pathol
ogy during the prevalence of endemic
or epidemic diseases, that every per
son is liable to the disoease, and noth
ing but an exciting cause is needed
for its proluetion. I am Aked what
do you mean by an excitin ca8se, my
reply is, avoid excesses, do nothing
thlut is not in harmony with the laws of
nature. Some of the most powerful
causes are fatigne, improper exposure,
and intemperance, transition from a
heated to a moist atmosphere, the
evening dews more .51isially, in a
lying posture, cold eu'rents of air,
weakening blows, an inordinate abuse
of the i hn"lous generally, more es
ipelally fear, long continued study,
to these atldd excessive eating anil
drinking, de.jectiin of mind, swallou -
ing nans,.us medic'ins, such I say are
some ,f tLhe exciting causes to le
avoided. If a peis'n esneales an epi
dehuic he owes to mlother nature a
gratitude that lie shuld not albse.
BIut if on the Other hand he breaks her
laws, and he nflfers thereby, he must
not blame the generous matron that
gave hunt his existeineC,
The next question that arises, are
there any medicinal substances that
will obviate the effects of bilious
malaria? I know of none. All nos
truins that are administered for that
purpose are but the fruits of empi
ricism. Some physicians speak of
cathrrties in protecting the system
from the malaria. I consider the
opinion unfounded, and the practice
hazardous, not to say highbly injuri
ous if the eruption does not quickly
disappear.
The same is true of adults as re
lates to bilious fever. Individuals
who labor under elephantiasis
escape from the fever of hot
climates. Such I tell you are truths,
and the reason must be clear to
every one who has investigated
physiology. What then would be
the effect of preternatural excite
ment of the skin, produced inten
tionally as a means of prevention
during the prevalence of yellow
fever? I cannot slwak from per
sonal experience of this remedy, but
will add, they tend towards the
mnaintainance of centrifugal action
which goes far in preventing disease;
under proper regulation, they. may
Ibe found worthy of trial. I was
talking with a lady the other day
who spolke about the application of
hot mustard( in yellow fiever, I was
astonished at the beauty of her
treatment knowing at the same time
she was ignorant of its rationality.
My advice toall who are so unfor
tunate as to take on yellow fever,
provide yourself with a good native
nnrse, she will bring you out if your
days are iot attalbered. Medical
men mray smile, but when a family is
wrapped in sables, there is regret
on their countenance; they conuld do
the same thing if they would follow
np nature, the proud fool dubbed
with the doctorate attempts to
measure arms with his God.
