Our Representatives are true in every sense to their constituents and they are willing to undergo any amount of privation and discomfort to ulfll their duty. There is no danger of an adjournment of the Legislature unless it is plainly indicated that such a movement would be beneficial to the Interests of Louisiana. The latest performances of some of the Texas "Knights of the Road" are simply incredible. It is not the rob beries that are wonderful-highway rob beries have been for sometime quite frequent and fashionable in the Lone Star Btate- but the curious lcreumstan nes under which they took place, and especially the disparity iU numbers between the robbers and the robbed. For instance, a week ago, two highway men stopped a coach containing six pessengers, all able-bodied men, and two drivers, only two miles from one of the most prosperous towns of Texas, Waco, and compelled them to give up their money and valuables, which they did without any attempt at resistance. This story of two capturing eight sounded so absurd, so much like Fal ataff's version of the Gadshill affair, that the newspapers were at first dis posed to be suspicious, and even hinted that some of the victims of the robbery must have been in alliance with the highwaymen and helped them along. This, however, was subsequently ex ploded, and all the victims shown to be well known and respectable citizens. Another case, of only a few days ago, when two stout, able-bodied Kentuck ians, well armed and equipped, were stopped by a solitary horseman and made to turn over their whole patri mony, a very large sum of money, to him, must have had an exhilarating effect and given a new impetus to this highway robbery business. When all that is necessary to secure a large for tune is to ride up to a party of travelers and cry, "Your money or your life," it seems quite probable that a large num ber of the persons at present out of em ployment and hard-up will take to the road as a profession at once easy, pleas ant, profitable, and yet quite free from any danger. Unless, therefore, travelers get a little bolder and blow the head off of the next Paul Clifford that attacks them, .Texas is likely to see a great Increase in the business. THE COM3MII~ION. ]Kelleog say thant no Deeent Man Can serve on It. [Special to St. Louis Rerublican.] WASmNaToN, March 25.-It is agreed on all hands that the delay in obtaining the Louisiana commisssion has a de cided significance and principally because the Cabinet members are re markably reticent about the matter. The President has sent his invitations broad cast in every direction, and so far one solitary individual-Gov. Brown, of Tennessee - has consented to serve. Slate-makers are already sick over the army of prominent names brought forward. It has cropped out that there is much uneasiness at the White House over the dissatisfaction expressed severally over this scheme, but especially because so much disap proval is heard in Republican quarters. Kellogg said to-day that no man in public life could afford to accept a place on that commission, and a prominent Republican politician remarked that the President might find three men willing to go on such a fool's errand, but he doubted whether he could secure more.

The small.pox prevails in the north ern portion of Lafayetto petish. "Business dull and cash scarco," Is the universal plaint of the country. Some cotton was planted in Avoyelles parish last week. A little premature, this. A mad dog got loose in the streets of Minden and bit several hogs. The hogs wore all killed from fear of hydropho bie. Shreveport ships her tramps to Mar shall. Marshall is preparing for a good revenge--small-pox, cholera, somethiing in that line. The crop outlook in Madison lparish is very good. The laborers are all work ing satisfactorily. Cotton will be planted this week and worked next. The State-House grounds at Baton Rouge have booeen put in perfect order, and now serve as a sort of park or pub lic garden to the people of that town. A Grange co-operative association has been organized in the parish of St. Liandry, and a store will soon be estab lished at Washington under its auspices on the co-operative plan. The planters of St. Charles, left bank, will endeavor to keep out the water that will flow through the Bonnet Carre crevasse as soon as the river rises. They hope to be able to do this until the crop is harvested. The Opelousas ('ourer? complains that the Mound City Mutual Life Insu rance Company of St. Louis, which re cently went into bankruptcy, collected I $20,000 from residents of tit. Landry parish; not one cent of which can be recovered by the victims. A most distressing casualty occurred last Saturday night on the Waveland plantation, 'Tensas parish. One of the houses in the quarters near the gin was burned to the ground, and an old col ored woman and her two little children perished in the flames. There was a horse tied to the back gallery, and it also became a victim to the devouring element. It made the most frantic ef forts to get loose, and when finally re leased it tottered around to the front of the house, and before it could be pro vented, rushed into the fire and was destroyed. mllsl*slPpl. "No deaths, no marriages, no noth ing," is the mournful cry of an Osyka paper. "Can't we have another elec tion ?" J. G. Hall, late a member of the Leg islature from Panola county, is one of the candidates spoken of for Attorney General. Two more plantations in Adams coun ty, embracing 1830 acres, sold for taxes under Radical rule, were redeemed last week by their owners by paying the taxes due on them, some $1500. And thus the work goes on under an undis puted Democratic government. The cut-off point, opposite Vlcksburg, has been caving quite rapidly during the past week, and the newly made sandbar -is moving off rapidly under the pressure of the rising river. The ferry boat land ing at Delta is going into the river rapidly and so is the land below the lower saw mill on the Mississippi side. A negro man, guilty of attempted out rage upon several white ladies in Sum mit, disappeared from the jail last Tuesday night, and was found about two miles west of the town on Friday morning. The corpse stood at the foot of a tree with a noose about the neck, the region of the heart being literally riddled with shot of various sizes, from squirrel shot up to large pistol balls. Says the Vicksburg iHerald, sarcas tically, of the "all cotton" theory: "This beautiful weather should be utilized in preparing every foot of till able Southern soil for King Cotton. Cotton is required to clothe the world, and the South is expected to produce it at half the cost of production. We are particularly anxious for a big crop, for the bears in the market have displayed so much spunk that we want to see them encouraged. Let the South raise about thirteen millions of bales this season. just for fun." Texal. The small-pox still prevails in Cham bers county. Fort Worth requires her policemen to wear uniforms. Farmers in Navarro county have fin ished planting corn. The Colorado river bridge at Austin is now ready for public use. The Marshall Herald is about to be issued daily. Wish it success. There has been a great deal of fatality in Freestone county of late, caused by pneumonia.' Farmers of Brazos county are paying special attention to the improvement of breeds of fine stock. There are nineteen prisoners in the Tarrant county jail, the majority, of course, for horse stealing. A train of immigrant wagons, from Newton county, Missouri, passed through Denison the other day, for Brown county. The honest*people in Medina county propose to hang cattle and horse-thieves. Self-preservation is to be the first-law of that county hereafter. Justices of the peace at Seguin fined the conductor of the train $75 for not stopping at the station as long as the charter creating the road provided. The conductor was arrested, paid the money, and the train moved on. Henry Anderson and William Harri son, two young men from Butler county, Kentucky, came to Dallas a few days ago with a large supply of money, with which they proposed to buy a farm. They started from Dallas last Wednes day, on horseback, for Fort Winn, where they wished to look at some lands. They were well armed with re volvers, but had placed these in their saddle-bags so as not to break the Law against carrying arms. At Mountain Creek bottom, seven miles from Dallas, t they were halted by a man armed with a pistol, who demanded their money or their lives. Unable to get at the pistols, which were in their saddle-bags, they reluctantly handed over their cash, $512. They expressed themselves perfectly satisfied with Texas and left for Ken tucky the next day. The popular wine be ure the war was Piper Heidaeick. We a11 call for Piper.

At a grand mass meeting held at Delta, in Madison parish, the following resolutions were adopted : Whereas, our beloved State of Lou isiatna is a constit.uent part of the Itre publie and holds its place under the constitution as an equal, necessary and inseparable merumber of the Union, and Is entitled to the managemenit and con trol of Its domrnOst;l concerns, free from Federal Interference, the same as is ac corded to her site.r r"tatesa; and, Whereas, while we unroservedly ac cept and loyally and heartily obey the constltution with all its amelnd ments and laws of the Union lit accordance therewith, we tdeclare a no less devoted and determined fealty, allegiance and lideolty to our State govern tenet, of which Francis T. Nicholl is at the head, whose authority came from the people, through the ballot box, whose administration has its f ldatlon cleeo laid In their hearts, anmf whose vitality derives its vigor from their cheerful and willing support, and which recognizes and maintains Inviolable the right of every citizen. And whereas, still hoping for the ful flment of the declaration of P'resident Hayes In speaking to the people on taking the oath of oflee : "I am anxious to use every legitimate influence in favor of honest and effective local holf government as the true resource for the promotion of the contentment and prosperity of their citizens," we look with abiding faith to the early triumph of justice and a speedy end to the pro tractotl discord in our domestlo govern mont. And whereas, the State government of the State of Louisiana, In all Its do partments, is perfect In its organlzatlton and operation, and republican in form and spirit, anti any and all pretended opposition thereto under one . 1B.

Resolved, That to carry out these views we pledge ourselves to pay taxes for the support of the government headed by Franlcs T. Nicholls as (1eov ernor which Is the choice of the people, and that we will recognize only those ofmc:.rs who are in accord with the true government of this State.

Resolved furlher, That we recommend to the good people of this parish, with out distinction, to pay their taxes to the government presided over by the said Francis T. Nicholls and Louis A. Wiltz, convinced that it represents the only true and lawful government in this State. tOUTIIERNt POLICY. The Cabinet in the Hole of the "Bour geols Gentllhomme." [(pecial to Cin. Enquirtr.] Every day the Cabinet meets and sol emnly approves the Southern policy, obviously not knowing what it is any more than Shaun the Post knew what an alibi was. There are numbers of other people as ignorant as the Cabinet on this subject, but there are some who know well what the Southern policy means. It is michinfl mallecho, and means as much mlschief as Blaine does, and Blaine has neither shown the white feather nor has he any crow-plumes as trophies of his gastro nomic feats. The plain truth is, the Republican party is merely a galvan ized corpse, having only been tempo rarily electrified into the semblance of life by the Tribunal. It ought to come frankly over and confess, and join the Democratic party in good faith and re ceive eternal life. But it does nothing so frank as this. It proposes to adopt a few Democratic principles, or appear to adopt them, and while it keeps up a clamorous pretense that the Demo crats are the minority party, yet it is straining all its faculty of cunning to disrupt, divide and rend that minority. The "Southern policy," therefore, is intend ed to delude somebody and at the same time to effect a bargain or traffic, or barter, or whatever noble name of in trigue it may be called by, whereby to secure two of those creditable Republi can Senators from South Carolina and Louisiana, for which those States are so justly renowned. This is the chief point in the policy, and at any moment, night or day, when it can be arranged that the dwinding Republican majority in the Senate may be reinforced in this way, that moment Hampton and Nicholls can secure their recognition. A Furprise. A lady who determined to surprise her husband, a few nights ago, bought him a pair of rubbers and placed them by the bedside. The man stayed out so late that his wife fell asleep, awd when he came in his eyes fell upon LIn over shoes. Grabbing her by the hair he yelled out: "This once happy home is desolated by a woman's perlidy," and pointed to the overshoes. It tiok nearly two hours to explain, and then he for gave her. -[Ex. - -*---- The Useful Harmonica, A West Side woman (according to the Norwich Bulletin) had her tongue para lyzed last week from playing the har monica, but the next day, when it was geer know, evey other married t ý a nidaý SELF-HEATING, A V "NO|[ DNlSITIOJ One Whole int el Irons In One.
