The Donaldsonville Times registers
a strong kick against the appoint-
et ment of colored men as census enum
erators for the town of Donaldson
Iville. The Tames is right in protest
is ing against such an outrage. The
as census enumerators are expected to
visit the homes of the people, to ask
delicate questions of a private nature,
in some instances, and it is a shame
and an indignity for the federal
admininistration to foist negroes on
II the Aeuthern people in such a matter.
If the attempt be persisted in by
the "l)owers that he" at Washington,
n it may result in serious trouble, for
1e it may well be doubted whether our
people will submit to the humiliation.

a Bro. Jolley, of the Morgan City

must not be confounded with the

A Canadilan editor, hwing asked if
I he had ev.er seen a bald headed wo
man, rephed : "No, we never did.
Nor have we ever seen a woman
waltzing around town an her shirt
sleeves, with a cigar between her
teeth. We have never seen a woman
go a fishing with a bottle in her hip
Ipoket, sit on the damp ground all
day and then go home drunk at
night. Nor have we ever seen a
woman yank off her coat and swear (
she could lick any man in town.

way."
Simla, India, April, 20th.--The
distress among the people is spread.

receiving relief.
Calcutta, India, April 23d.--The
reports from the famine districts say
that the misery existing there is
indescribable and unparalleled, and
that the present relief is quite inade
quate. Numberless human beings
are found dead from starvation, and
children are wandering about, h',mu
less, naked and emaciated.
But Queen ' ictoria is driving
about in Ireland, and the people are I

in the throes of starvation and of ti

Now that the excitement Incident
ie to the heated political campaign,
a concluded last Tuesd;ty week, has
id subsided, and the glow of exultation
in which cheered the victors and the
g gloom of disappointment which hung
iy over the vanquished have expended
s themselves, let us forget the strife
id through which we have lately passed,
Um and resume our usual friendly busi
ness and social relation., and all
y work for the commou good.
1, Our poistical differences we will
, have, and, we suppose, in election
o times we shall continue to struggle

ht but life is too short to keep aý it

our time to better advantage, in col

laboring to further the general wel

such bad fellows as we are sometimes
made out to be ,by some opponents
during a heated campaign; ,ad if
we would only use a little more of
the "milk of human kindness" in our
daily intercourse and practise a little
o more that divine virtue Charity, we

From Lockport.
Rditor Sentinel:
The election is over and th3 result,
while disappointing to some, is:
nevertheless accepted by all without
a murmur or any claim of fraud
which is so often made after an
election. Here's success to the luckyo
ones and may they make us good
public servants; here's consolation
to the defeated--others have been
there before and others, still have a
future before them.
The two fairs given for the benefit
of the Lockport public school, April
8 and April 15, realized the snug
little sum of $427.93 net, which will'
iusure us a ten month session.
A meeting of those patrons of the i
'school who had been instrumental in
giving the fair, was held at the
school.house last Friday evening
The final reports of all committees
were heard and the committees dis
charged. The thanks of the body
wasb voted to all who contributed
lime, means or patronage to the
success of the fair. Several hundlesdl
dollars more would have been realized
had it not rained.
Our school is in a flourishing con
dition. There are at this time 155
names on the rorl. The average
attendlance w:ll probably reach 130)
th a month. This speaks well for
our town. Full schools means empty
jails and poor asylums. It also
means more voters iu the future who
wiil know how to scratch a ballot ift
it is thought necessary. An educated
ballot means much for our state but
none but the educated, patriotic!
voter is capable of wielduing it. The
school teacher is abroad in the land
and a great work is before him.
At the recenut election town officers
were elected for the village of Lock.
lport as failows: G. Abribat, mayor;
J. U T,1ps8, G. D. Barrios and Dr.
A. J. I'rte , councilmeo; and J. IS.
B;a'ker, liarbhal. We wou:d suggest
to our new y elected village olfficials
