Editorial Notes.
—The byyou is now about sta
tionary anil the uneasiness about
'overflow seems to be Subsiding.
—The prisoners who escaped
from Houma jail were reeaptiir
eil last week.
—We are glad to note that the
health of the town is better now
than for some time past, aud
: trust that it will continue so.
—The hardest rain perhaps
ever known in this vicinity fell
'on Friday week. The whole sur
face of the ground seemed cover
ed aud quite six inches of water j
' fell. The swamps and basins are
all full ana some time will elapse
before the water suosides to its
' normal point.
—¥o publish this week a,list
of the counterfeit notes in circufa
' tiou, which wilT be df use as a re 7
ference to those who will not, JiUe
'us, have their satisfact ion at know
iug they have no counterfeits
.damped by the the discovery
' that they are equally destitute
ot geuuiue notes.
—A pood time coming foi the
lovers of amusetqeqt in our com j
muuity, fora grand fair under \
the auspices of Bev. Father Me
nard is to be given on theGtU of
next mouth. The enjoyable na
tiire of any entertainment under
'taken by this gentleman and his
congregation is assumed before
hand and we predict for it a flat
'teriug success.
—The Aftfiumption Chronicle says
that as far as that parish is con
cerned our statement that the
cane is recoving from the freeze
does not apply, "because it is con
'tary to nature that it should re
cover, and what is contrary to na
ture is wrong" ; we are not parti
cularly posted as to the moral na
fare of Assumption cane, but
granting the truth of this dictum
are happy to state that that of
this parish and Terrebonne is ert
niinal enough to rapidly repair
the loss of leaves, the only dam
age sustained.

—The condition of the road
( froin this place to Terrebonne Sta
tion is such that it is almost im
possible to travel over it, and the
only way to get from here to that
point is through the fields of par
ties who. having good fronts, are
naturally averse to having a liigh
'way through their places. We
lately heard a responsible gentle
man of this vicinity offer to put
the road in good condition for five
'hundred dollars ; as this is only
about half the amount required to
accomplish this object, the offer is
an extremely liberal one, and we
hope it will be accepted by those
interested. '** 1 '
—Some time since we noticed
the fact that a schooner line had
'been established from New Or.
ieans to the month of Grand Gail
; lou, enabling planter^ along that
bayou to save greatly on their
freights. This course incurred the
displeasure of the powers that be
on the Morgan line' - and nqw the
offending parties are made sensi
"ble of the tact, by the refusal of
the agents'of the road to sell
them commutation tickets by or
'fler of the managers.
The unfortunate gentlemen say
they will endeavor tp bear up
with fortitude under the inflic
tiou of the additional two cents
per mile as long as they save se
veral thousands a year on the (lit
'lereuce in freights;

one half of the nett protitof each

This club has gone to consider

Our Choice for Governor
eringly thiou
Louisiana po
The impending political cam
paign is pregnAnt with jmssibili
ties of redemption ' or continued
thralldom to Louisiana, and pro
mises to be the most important
and hotly contested struggle ever
waged within her borders; iu this
crises it is of the last importance
that the man Selected to t>ear the
standard of justj.ee and reforip
should unite iu himself ability, un
blemished character, and an Uu
impoachable record. Nor ; is this
all ; the condition of allairs qs too
grave to admit of experiments,
and the interests of the State de
mand that the executive powers
l>e wielded by one whose fitness
for position aud office has been
tested and proved.
Hearing in mind these necessary
qualifications, we know of no one
who so fully meets them all as
the
Hon. F. S. Goode,
of Terrebonne. To abilities of high
order, an unstained character anil
a station which commands the
respect of all, he unites the merit
of being no tyro in political affairs,
as his record as a legislator
proves. A consistent causerva
live, he has ever walked uutuult
the labyrinth of
idnted by
bigotry on the one hand of jnsta
bility on the other, because he
held the clew ot devqtiou to the
best Interests of the State. His
large means place him above the
necessity of desiring office tqr tfie.
emoluments, or entering the race
handicapped by embarassmeuts.
He is deservedly popular with al!
classes, and in this section, at
least, would run far ahead of the
ticket.
A proud day w.QuId it be for
Louisiana to behold a trusted son
iu the chair sy long disgraced by
adventurers, and we present the
claims of y. S. Goode, confident
that, while others may equal,none
can .surpass him in fitn;ss tor that

The Colored Convention
at Nashville,
The sentiments expressed by
the delegates ot the colored peo
ple pi' tfie South assembled at
Nashville on the 5th ol this
month mark a most important
era iu the political history of that
race. Though the attendance was
not as large as was anticipated,
it numbered among it some oftlie
most intelligent leaders, and was
iu every respect representative
l*. H, S. Finch buck was the lion
of the occasion, and his speech
was of a character hardly to he
expected of him. It is a matter of
regret that he did not give utter
a nee to these sentiments prior to
his rejection by the Senate, as
that fact gives his specious oppo
nents, the carpet baggers, a plau
sihle means of attack on his sin
cerity.
Be that as it may, phe colored
people would do well heed the lps
son inculcated in his speech, and
emancipate themselves at once
from the political slavery iu which
they have been held since the
conf'en ii>g of suffrage by uuprinci
pled adventurers. Let Pinchback
continue in the course he lias
started, and lie will be more enti
tied to the lasting gratitude of his
race than it he had been able to
confer on them every office in the
South.
TriE
TriE NOMINATING CONVENTION
—This important body, on which
devolves the duty of naming our
candidates iq the next campaign,
should, ip our opinion, assemble
at. as late a time as the require
meats of the contest will allow.
Many reasons demand this course,
among which is the fact that a
large number ot the delegates,
being from the agricultural dis
triets can ill afford to leave their
interest during the busy season ,
another important one is that we
should follow the example of the
National Convention, and await
the opportunity of learning the
piograunne of our opponents by
deferring our convention (ill afper
theirs. Iq regard fo the fittest
plaee at which to assemble,Baton
Rouge would perhaps be best and
most convenient to all sections of
the State, being centrally located,
and in every respect free from ol>
jections which might be qrged
against New Oiieaus. }Ve do not
suppose that the laiter city will
very strenuously object to the
holding elsewliere ot the ponven
tjon, inasmuch as her wishes in
this respect have so qftyq IfotQre
been deferred to, and a§ tlie con
venience of t|ie majority of the
delegates will be consulted by its
assembly in Baton Rouge.

—The weather for the past
week hqs been cloudy and threaten
iug, but, ou«the whole, good grow
ing weather. The flood of last
week seems to. have about ex
hausted the clouds, which have
been endeavoring in vain to get
up another raju. A singular fact
about the crop is that plant cane
in this vicinity seems to be doing
better than that lower down in
this parish and Terrebonne, Many
planters who have applied fertili
zers are apprehensive that the
heavy rain ot last week has les
sened the expected benefit of it by
washing much of it away, but
tiiqe alone willshow whether their
fears are well grounded. We are
glad to note that the use of ferti
lizers is becpqjiug more extended
and universal with each season.
—The Hubert E. Lee, the chain
pion steamer of the river, and
probably the most popular boat
ever run from New Orleans, bade
tarewell to her numerous friends
on Wednesday last. She goes to
Louisville where her machinery
will be transferred to a new boat
which will bear the same name.
The departure was made the occa
sion of a grand demonstration,
and the large erowd, the numer
ous salutes, etc., showed the ex
tent of her popularity.
—Gen Diaz having negotiated
a loan of two dollars and six bits
necessary to inaugurate a revolu
tion in Mexico, Is making things
lively in that proverbially tran
quil republic. As long as the fight
\Vas between him and the Presi
dent it was nyt particularly inter
estiug to us, but troops of t he lat
er under the vague impression
that our government was hostile
to them, lateh' fired on a detach
ment of United States troops
killing and wounding several. A
brisk skirmish ensued, and jt re
mains to be seen what additional
conipljpatfims will result.
—The Annual Conference ot
the Presbyterian Church met in
tfijs placg this week and a number
ot divines of that sect are in at
tendance. We trust that tbeir
recollections of Thibodaux will be
pleasant.

millionaire is dead.
♦John T. Raymond has been talk
i'ig with a reporter of the Si.
Louis Times about the success of
the character of Colonel Seller. He
says lie is making ^lL'0,000 a
year, and thinks the part will
wear as well as Jefferson's Hip
Van Winkle. He first played it,
but in another dramatization, in
California, but Mark Twain stop
ped the performances, having
planned to put it on stage him
self, with Colonel Sellern as a se
rious part ? played by Lawrence
Barrett, if possible. "I came
East-,7 says Raymond,"saw Twain
got him to go to work, fixed up
the stage business as 1 thought
most effectively, and started out
with tim piece at Rochester. It
didn't go. Then I did a rash thing:
Without a dollar in my pocket I
brpke for New York. Not a inana
ger would touch it. 1 borrowed
soiqe money, paid a week's rent
in advance for tho Pai k Theatre
got up a tolerable company, and
opened out. I had Mark Twain
on hand to make a speech. That
attracted a tall house, not a pay
iug one. Between the thud and
fourth acts Mark Twain lounged
out to the footlights. He was as
solemn as a mule. During the
whole of his twenty minutes'
speeclj ho never cracked a smile,
while the audience were roaring
Every hit tank. That night a
thousand people advertised Sel
ler*, his mules, hogs, corn, and
eye-water speculations. From that
time on the holies increased
nightly until there was no more
room for an increase. I played
one hundred and twenty nights,
took a short run to the other
large cities, came back to New
York and played forty nights
more, and tire next season every
theatre in the country was offer
ed to me on my own terms.'' Ray

lers in England in 1877, believing
tnat the Emma Mine swindlp has
educated the English people so
that they wi 1 appreciate the
points of the play.—A. Y. Sun,
