West of the city they are i'aught by 'Cadlen fish
ermen In the following mann*'r: The fisherman

nmail bunch of mallard or teal feathers tiedt on
tor three small hooks The flsherman sits
li the bow of a pirogu: another man in the

iropels the craft with a paddle. ''he two hav
lea started out before sunrise, go slowly down
a fpvorlte bayou, whintl s ttartlally eovered

rout, goggle eyes and perch as they eapture
pslr prey of minnows dragon flies or acquaBlc
Insets, Bifore thejiRterman in the bow of the
irogue returns, numbers of snaps will also
have been made at his "bob," which the fish ap
parent v mistakes for some olummy, insect and
triking at is taken in. In this manner onet
et our humble fishermen often captures
elveral doswns of splendid green tront in a
aln.le morning. On a cloudy day the sport
11ties4e in the manner noted may be oarled on
l day, but In bright clear weather It onl lats
orafew hours in the erly morning and may
pa enjoyed for an hour late in the evening. The
- ostsportsmanlike manner of capturing green
tit, or what seems to us so to be. is done in
t~jfol!owing manner:
The anglar has a slender an suppeI ron
about flftes n feet, in length, with a Ilae about
one foot shorter. or of such a I, ng h that he can
wing the bait back to his light handl without
t necessity of reaching for it and triaghtoning
lssb by a useless movement. 'lhe inee should
detelicate and stron and shlould hive a small
oaton It, the hook balled with ctlive live mln
Poil which are not always easrI, procured.
Swltwlen obtained are the mo-t killing ballts.
The angler, quietly walking nesr the edge of
ihebayou, stream or pond In which he may be
ishing, throws as noiselessly and wlth as tuchh
dexterity as posible Into the most likely places
oad a.o.rding to his skill (taking it for granted
it fish are in the water) will be repaid. In
ts manner the skillful angler enjoys rigbht
royal sport, and takes into litile aneolnt such
Snnovances as musqulties, deer ticks and
rWMbugs when he survieys the accumulating
tr phles of a faithful rod.
In running streats an artificial minnow is
Pften suanwEfully used in this flahing. The
little metallic flus of the minnow are set at
ngileS like the blades of a propeller. The bait
is thus turned by the current and Oanears to
the untutored piscine eye as a natural minnow,
taýticallr wrigglng about, end is taken Ipt n
s ight with unfortunate 'onsequenOes.T,
t telling baits of this sort are made of
I'ver, apd may be used for a great length of
mes. Live minnow a or counterfeit minnows
are good bait for fishing at all seasons of the
year except In cold weather.
Artificial dragon files, butterflies and aquatic
insects of varlous kinds are successtully used
by many of our expert anglers duiing the sea
s on for fly fishing. but even in that se ison these
counterfeits cannot always be salely relied on.
There is probably more thorough enjoyment in
successful green trout fishing than in any of
the sports of field and flood that, are enjoyed by
amateurs In this part of the country. It. co(nme
at a time when most other sports of the kind
are out of season, when the skies are brightest
mnd the temperature most pleasant: when the
follage is green, flowers are first blooming, and
before the mosquitoes fully wak, up to a con
sciousness of the fact that the warm weather is
near at hand. To the enjoyment of fishing is
'added-not to be unsportsmanlike-the after
pleasure of affording a luscious and an inex
pensive dish to your home or landlady's table.
How to prepare it comes within the sp.-ctal cnui
nary dpartment of our Monday's edition. and
we hope the editor thereof will soon pay duo
honors to the elegant subject of whose capture
we have treated.
REARTLSI AND CRUEL.
A Young Lady of Carrellton Deserted on
the Eve of ler larrlage.
Certain circles in this city and Carrollton
have been for the past. few days considerably
agitated and distressed over the sudden and
unaccountable disappearance of a well known
young business man of New Orleans. who
hitherto has borne an unblemished reputation.
The facts in the case were rather diffcult to ob.
tain, owing to a desire on the part. of friends to
keep the matter quiet, but a DEMOCRAT repre
s*ntative inquired into the matter, and. as
usual, was su ceseful in obtaining the desired
information. A well known lumber merchant
near the Custom-House was first interviewed;
the next victim of the DEMOCRAT'R inquisitor
Mas the president of a wagon manufactory on
earondelet street, then the proprietor of a tin
store on the same street was compelled by skill
fully dirc.ted questions to disclose what be
knew about the matter, and so on until the fol
lowing facts were ascertained:
A little over a year ago a young man. appa
rently about thirty-two or three years of age.
calling himself Wm. B. Stiles. came to this cit)
direct from his native Staie-Massachusetts
with the avowed intention of making New Or
leans his permanent home. Shortly after hIt
arrival he opened a large carpenter shop ot,
Carondelet, b.tween Girod and Julle street'.
and commenced business under auspiolous cir
eamstances as a builder and contractor. Being
ossese!sd of some oeoital and oonslderble en
rly, his business soon became prosperous, and
a e was man of prepossessinl appe~ rane

The yoang lady was pleasantly impressed by
his personal appearance and Careeable man

which in a short time beoamethoseof a devoted
lover.
The course of true love illided smnothly on

tride elect had oncasion to see his prospective
bro' her-in-law. and was surptrised itn alarmed
at his Inability to disco er his wheeabouts.
After several hours' search and many inquirles
his supicilons beaome thoroughly aroused.
Other parties Jolned in the search, and at last
they were rellably informed that Stllsn was
seen that morning at Lafourebe Crossing on
his way to Texa+. The brother, tather and
Ifle,nds of the young lady, of course, felt
terribly outragcd and indignan, and if the for
mer tcould have "Interviewed" Mr. StiIe on
Monday he would undoubtedly have suddenly
put an end to that perty's suhltunary carenr.
'he news was broken as gently as positln by
kind relatives and sympathiring frlendis to the
loving and trtsting victim of thii heartless de
sertion; nevertheless the shock was terrible,
and the young and happy l rl of the hour be

woman that she is to-day. Shame on the man

A DU.IDlWRATMI [.
Plan for the Estabitshment of a Swim
minlg sehool.
Now that warm weather is rapidly approxi
mating, it is not unusual to hear our summer
tourists speak of the necessity of looking
around for cool retreats and shady nooks.
With characteristic unwillingness to listen to
any attempt at oalling attention to the attrac
tions offered by our neighboring watering
places and the considerations which should In
duce them to spend their money at home. they
persist in winging a flight to Northern climes
as being indispensable to health.
To contend with them as to whether this may
or may not be the case, and to point out the ad
mitted fact that New Orleans compares favor
ably with other resorts as to hygienic condi
tions during the solstitial period, is not the
object immediately contemplated by this writ
ing. To question the right of persons to carry
out their own ideas, in so far as the pursuit of
happiness and comfort is concerned, is a sub
ject. which none but the veriest simpleton would
venture to discuss, and one which certainly
does not some within the province of those not
directly affected by the hegira from the Cres
cent City. commencing generally in the month
of June.
Our purpose at present is not to find fault
with our summer deserters, but simply to no
tify the stay-at-home portion of the communi
ty of an enterprise about to be inaugurated in
thcir behalf and which. we trust, will commend
itself to their earnest support and active co
operation.
Mr. Harry Hammersley, of this city, through
a puhltc . pi rittd desi re to add tothe at ractions
of New Orleans, during the heated term, has
projected the novel idea of establishing a float
ing basin at some eligible point on our river
front, to be used by those who love the cold
hath and who are anxious at the same time to
acquire a knowledge of the useful art of swim
ming. This plan is as follows: He proposes to
bulld a floating basin, whose extreme outside
length shall be from 100 to lit feet; an inside
length of st by a width of 30 feet is to be allowed
for water space, with a perforated bottom. in
clining from three to ten feet In depth. Across
the centre there is to be a bridge with spring
board attached for diving purposes, together
witlh all the reguiarapparatus usually employed i
In E',ropoan swimming schools. Comfortable
accommodations for ladies as well as gentle
men. are to be afforded, and careful attention
given to every detail calculated to make the
undertaklng a complete success. The cost of
such a structure, it Is thought, will amount to
about 12000. to bet raised by subscription on very
easy terms. Two hundred subscribers con
tributing ten dollars each will place Mr.
Hammer-ley in possession of the necessary
funds. Five dollars are to be paid when the
work is commenced; two dollars and a half
thirty days thereafter, and two dollars and a
half on completion of the building. As remu
nera'lon for the risk assumed, and by way of
realizing a handsome profit on the investment,
the subscribers will be entitled to the free use
of the baths for two seasons, and the serviocrs
of Mr. Hammerley as teacher of the art of
swimming.
As an acquisition to the city, as a source of
comfort to its summer residents, and as a
school for the dissemination of useful knowl
edge. we express the hope that this enterprise
will receive the encouragement needed for its
speedy inauguration and successful execution.

SINSULAR FATALITY.
Just after Commodore Hollins assumed com
mand of this station in sod1. he ordered the
schooner Wm, R. King. then belonging to t the
Confederate Naval Department to proceed to ,
Matamoros in order to procure such munitions
of war as were to be obtained from the revolu
tionary chiefs, which then had possession of
the Mexican side of the Rio Grande. Col H. L. i
Kinney, of Texas, and Capt. James F. Allen
embarked on the King for the purpose of con
umating the rRuisite negotiations and with
them wont Mr. J. W. Zacherie. Mr. W. R. Buld
dendorIf and Mr Jonas 'ickles.
A few days after his arrival at Matamoros.
while Col. Kinney was looking from a window
fronting on the grand plaza, during a fight
between the revolutionists and the governm'nt
troops, a Mexican leveled his escopete at him
and shot him through the head. causing in
stant death.
This put an end to the negotiations and the
King returned to Berwick's B4y. The com
mander of the King was Robert Smith: he died
a year afer in Havana, of virulent small-pox.
after an illness of three days; Capt. J. F. Allen
dropped dead from appoplexy Mr. Budden
dorf fell from the ga lery of his house, owing
to a broken railing, and was instantly killed:
Commodore Hnllins fell dead, without any pre
monition, in Baltimore, some three or four
months ng,: and only a few days since our
worthy feilnw-citiaon, Mr. Jonas Pickles, was
thrown from his buggy and died afew hours
thereafter. Po it will be seen that evtry one
:onttltttnli this petty of blokA runneri,
eOeept Mr. Zeeher e, met with a uddefn rdeth.
If our memorl erve~ s right. Mr. ZMherie's
demise was preneded by onl a few days' llness.
