URANT PARISH TROUBLE'.
Statement ofa Citi-cn.
Over fifty negroes were killed. Their
bodie , were lying around the field of
action.
Previous to the engagement they had
entrenched themselves and thoroughly
fortified their position.
The battle with the people of the ad
joining parishesslastcd about four hours.
At one time it was most severe.
It is believed that there were about
ten white men killed and wounded.
The whites, before the fight took
place, endeavored to avoid bloodshed.
They raised a flagof trusee. DMr. Nash,
the Sheriff of Grant parish, sent for IL.
Allen-a leader of the negroes-and
begged him to disperse them. The
reply of the latter was they would
fight to the last.
The white people then gave them an
hour for the women and children to re
tire from the place of conflict, which
they did.
Whilst the negroes were in possesion
of the town of Colfax, they committed
many cruel acts against people of their
own color. They sent different bodies
of armed men to the plantations
throughout the whole parish to compel
the negroes to come Into town and as
sist the revolutionists in defending the
same. When resistance was made the
leaders of the mutiny and their follow
ers did not hesitate to resort toviolence.
Indeed, many of the poor, inoffensive
field laborers, were unmercifully beat
en.
The postmaster of Colfax-one Saul
Cuney-a negro, formerly a member of
the Legislature, was driven out of the
town, and not allowed to attend to the
duties of his office. The hostility
against him arose from the fact that lie
would not assist the negroes in their
work of violence.
All the negroes who sympathized
with the whites were compelled to flce
from the parish-their lives were t it reat
ened.
In the adjoining parish of Itapides
the enmity of the negroes against the
whites was so great that a war of races
seemed to be inevitable. The most difii
culties would have occurred there, had
it not been for the defeat of the revolu
tionists at Colfax.
The negroes, since the reduction of
this place, have confessed that they hadl
a full military organiztion in ilapides.
They were prepared to assist their
friends in Grant parish. They even
gave the name of somne of thei r leaders.
Since the fight all the negores belong
ing to the plantations in Grant parish
have returned to work.-Pieagyule.
- BOY WHO FOUND) A HI1ME.
The lion. A. l.Stephensi, of tcorgia,
in a recent address at a nectingat A\ lex
andria, for the benefit of the LorpIhian
asylum and free school of that city, re'
lated the following anecdote:
A poor little boy one cold niight,
with no house or roof to shelter his
head, no paternal or nlaternal gua:rd ian
or guide to protect or direct himt on hiis
way, reached at nightflll tihe home of
a wealthy planter, who took him in,
and fed and lodged him, and sent hiint
on his way with 1ie bIlesilig. 'l'These
kind attentions chieried his heart :and
inspired him with fresh counrage to bat
tie with the obstacles of liti*. Years
rolled on, Proividlnee led himn on, and
lie reached the legal roifessiIon. I lis
host had died; the cormorants who
prey on the substaitellof ntlI hail flormi
ed a conspiracy to get fromnt thie widow
her estate. She -sent for the nearest
counsel to collllit helr cause to 1Iint,
and that couinseil proved to be the boy
long before welcamned alll entelrtainled
by her deceased husbanld. 'The stinlu
lus of a warnl and tenaceiols gratitude
was now added to the ortlinary motive
connected witht imeproflssieon. It ui:n
dertook her casel with a will nlot
easily to be resisted; lie gained it; lthe
widow's estate was seCe'red to her ihi
property, and, [Mr. Sthnllse :<hlled
with an emphllasis of elmotiol thilt sent
an electrict thrill trlolith thel hlnoe,

Etlwin..lootth received an ovationi oil

FLIRTTING WITH STRANGCERS.
It is a prevailing custom, says tile
Philadelphia Dawn, with young ladies
in the country towns, to promenade
the streets in the evenings, especially
past the hotels, and signify to the new
comers by looks and gestures that their
their acquaintance can be made if de
sired. Drummers from our wholesale
houses, lightning rod men, venders of
patents, showmnen, &c., are so accus
tomed to those things, that they are
not in one of these towns or cities over
night until they have a ",duck" in tow
and tlhat , duck," perhaps, the daugh
tor of some respectable citizen, who
knows little of the danger his daughter
is in. \VWhatl is the result ? In seven
cases out of ten the fly is caught in tile
unmcrciful spider's web-the girl is
ruined, and in endeavoring to screen
lher parents from the shame the knowl
edge of her fall would bring upon temn
shlle fluds her way to this or some other
city, and into some of the gilded pal-aces
of sin, where good-looking country I
girls are at a premium, antd wvhre, run
der an assumed unllne, she is dead to
her parents, als she soon hiccolnes to
shame and all the liner lifeelings of her
nature. It is a well known falCet that it
is not our city girls whlo people the
bagnio, but girls from country towns
whose faur pts was strceet or theatre
fiirtations with strangers, anl listening
to their honeyed worids and grand
promises. Let girls bewaret of itinerants
those fellows who go into, stereotylpedl
rhapsodies over their beauty and swear
they are fit to adorn a manllsioln ill tile
city-who travel ion their c(lrtls, anld.

The Aldine, while issued with all the
regularity, has none of the temporary or
timely interest characteristic of ordinary
periodicals. It is an elegant miscellany of
uire, light, and graceful literature; and a
collection ofpictures, the rarest specimens
Sof' artistic skill, in black and white. Al
though each succeeding number affords a
fresh pleasure to its friends, the real value
and and beauty of The Aldine will be
rmostappreciated after it has been bound
tiu at the close of the year. While other
piublications mlay claim superior cheapness
as conllparedl with rivals of a similar class,
ThicAldine is a ullique and original con
I ;eltion-alone and unap)proached-abso

assualed its present noble proportions and

Imtore than doubled during the past year,
