G ood T emplabs . —Fidelity Lodge, No. 1,
Independent Order of Good Templars, an
organized institution in our city, has been
pursuing in a quiet and unostentatious
way its. efforts in the worthy mission of
reclaiming the young and old from the
paths of intemperance and snatching, as
"burning brands from the fire" those
within its reach who had been given over
to the grasp of the alcoholic foe.
This benevolent brotherhood has pros
pered to a degree which renders it neces
sary for its members to cast about in order
to procure a suitable and permanent lodge
hall, and to this end they solicit such do
nations as all well-disposed persons have
it in their power to make.
A series of Eesolutions adopted by the
members of Fidelity Lodge and submitted
to the public, will be found in our columns,
aetting forth the object in view, which we
hope will meet the favor and encourage
ment it deserves.
» ♦ »
A gentleman advertising in
our columns to-day, desires to lease
for one year or longer, about one
hundred acres of good cotton land.
For further particulars apply at this
office.
B ayoo M anch ac B ridge .—The
Grand Jury of Livingston Parish have
memorialized the Governor to take
steps by which the Pass Manchac,
now shut up by a fixed bridge on the
Jackson Bailroad, may be opened to
navigation. The Jury represents that
the people on the shores of Lake
Mauripas are now suffering as much
as they did during the war, in conse
quence of this blockade cf the naviga
tion to and from the Lake.
/>
M r . S ocle .—We read in the New
York News of the 20th October :
The Hon. Pierre Soulé is at the
New York ^otel. We are pleased to
observe that after a sojourn in an un
genial climate, this gallant and gifted
gentleman is in the enjoyment of per
fect health.
We understand since that the ap
{learanee of the above, Mr. Soulé has
>een in Washington City. A gentle
man just from that city, met him
there. Mr. Soulé came to New York
from Havana, where he was on the
14th October, and whither he had come
from Vera Cruz. He will doubtless
' arrive in this city in a short time
We presume he will have no serious
difficulty in obtaining his property
from the Feeedmen's Bureau.—N. O.
Bee, 31st ult.
A C lever C ase of C ut O ut.
It is many years since I fell in love
with Jane Jerusha Skeggs, the
handsomest country girl by far that
ever went on legs. By meadow,
creek, and wood, and dell, so often
we did walk, and the moonlight
smiled on her melting lips, and the
night winds learned our talk. Jane
Jerusha was all to me, for my heart
was young and true, and loved with
a double and twisted love, and a love
that was honest too. I roamed all
over the neighbors' farms, and
robbed the wildwood bowers, and
tore my trousers and scratched my
hands in search of choicest flowers
In my joyous love I brought all these
to my Jerusha Jane ; but I wouldn't
be so foolish now, if I were a boy
again.
A city chap then came along, all
dressed up in fine clothes, with a
shiny vest and a moustache under
his nose. He talked to her of sing
ing-8chools (for her father owned a
farm), and she left me, the country
love, and took the new chap's arm
And all that night I never slept, nor
could I eat next day, for I loved that
girl with fervent love that nought
could drive away. I strove to win
her back to me, but it was all in
vain ; the city chap with the hairy
lip married Jerusha Jane. And my
poor heart was sick and sore until
the thought struck me, that just as
good fish still remained as ever was
caught in the sea. So I went to the
Methodist church one night, and saw
a dark brown curl peeping from
under a gipsy hat, and I married
that very girl. And many yearB
have passed and gone, and I think
my loss my gain ; and I often bless
that hairy chap that stole Jerusha
Jane.
Sir Morton Peto, the leading
person in the English delegation of
capitalists who lately came through
the Northern and Western cities, and
over their railroads, is a self-made man.
He began life as a carpenter, at 60
cents a day. Now he owns a splendid
estate near Norfolk, and is one of the
largest English contractors for build
ing railroads, in England and on the
continent, and other foreign countries.
A cow at Mt. Carbon, Pa., burglariously
entered a flour and feed store, and ate halt
a Darrel of flour. She then went off and
drank a lot of water, whereupon the flour
"riz" and the cow went dead.
gjg- In the forthcoming Church
Congress at Norwich, Eng., there will
at all events be one novelty. "It has
been determined by those interested
in the spread of knowledge of Chris
tian art," so runs the announce
ment, "to hold at Norwich, during the
Congress week in October next, an ex
hibition of articles both ancient and
modern of general Church interest,
such as copes, chasubles, dalmatics,
tunicles, altar cloth?, banners, archi
tectural designs, chalices, patens, cen
sers, paintings, engravings, and church
furniture generally." It is added that
when real things cannot be sent by ex
hibitors, models or photographs will
answer the pnrpose.
Never keep coffee long in a tin
coffee pot, as the vessel will impart its
flavor to the fluid—or rather the fluid
will abstract it.
Keep coffee where it will not im
bibe odor, for it takes it on readily.
Whole cargoes are sometimes lost by
the presence of allspice or rum.
