.....r'·.....udm~i~ 'IATON BOUGF; MAWCB 12. 1861. --........ e 1. For the first time since the close rioh .t the war for Secession, a President of T6et has addrese& imaself, in his in- of tr augaral, to the reason and patriotism siblJ of the American people. , dict 'r. Garfield has had the good sense blin sad the courage to speak kindly of H the South and thul proclaim' to he Tr *untry, that the Union is now fully of C re-established. busi As President of the United States, be met as the Generalissimo of the Re- spo publican party, does Mr. Garfield ex- fav, press his lroadtnd enlightened views, der the greater portion of which will meet 1 the approval of a large majority of Gei the people. He evidently believes in that the light of education will serve lay the colored voter better, in directing Stu his ballot, than the bayonets of the like army. me By following the course which he in. has mapped out, the new President will quiet sectional animosities and W, distrusts. The people will cease to qu leok upon future presidential elections cal as approaching revolutions, and they Lil will, confidingly, devote their thoughts and energies towards the develop- of nient of the industries of our wonder- Co ftl country. fai The people of the Solid South do not expect of Mr. Garfield that will appoint others to office than those who Lc supported his candidacy. Therefore th will they not complain of him for so a doing. If be will remain where he has placed himself in his inaugural,he can feel assured that nowhere will his administration be more cordially 'i sipported than at the South. THE NEW ORLEANM PACIFIC. P Progress of the Work Between New Orleans and Nbreveport. fc The rtportb concerning the progress of the work on the New Orleans Pacific Railroad are very favorable. The fine c' weather recently,has facilitated opera- a tions on the road, andl it is now .l,out settled that it will be completed to Shreveport by the 1st of September. a The contract for the branch road of seven miles to connect the main line e with lBaton Rouge has been let out, r and railroad communication between the Capital and New Orleans will be ' established by July 4th. Track laying will be carried on at several different points along the road, at Shreveport. on both sides of Alexandria, and at Bayou Goula.--N. 0. Picayune. From present indications the work on the Capitol will have so far pro greased as to permit the Press Associ ation to hold their meeting on the first Monday of September next, in the restored Senate chamber. If the N. O. Pacific is completed by that time, the editorial fraternity will have rea son to rejoice in the fact that it will be the first body to assemble in the new Capitol, after reaching it from North and South Louisiana by means ofthe "iron horse." We hope that Mr. Wheelock will not spoil the pro ject by failing to come to time with bhis road, p:E LIFrs oF fhUNTOER AVID W BY HIS DOG. an -p Merman Hutter and Charles Whit- a, san, of Missouri, armed with rifles i and accompanied by a deerhound, ,a tihe other day went up the Rattle snake river in quest of game. They to climed the mountain to the left of the t stream and separated, taking oppo site sides of the ridge, in the hopes of legging a deer. Whitman came a down the Rattlesnake side, and soon e after separating from his companion, T ih slipped and fell, sliding some two I hundred feet down the mountain side. a 1-ei vainly endeavored to stop himself 1 by digging into the snow with his c bands and feet, and .clutching at I b :ush and saplings, till just as he was about to be precipitated over the cliff into the Rattlesnake. some I forty feet below, he clasped a '.cong sappling with one hand, anu was left danwling in the air over tihe precipice. By a strong eflbrt he clasped the sapling with his arm in 4 teelbow, and grasping his wrist with the disengaged hand, awaiting his inevitable fall with desperation. The bound, seeing his master fall, follow ed him to the edge of the cliff and whined piteously at the predicament at his master. Suddenly he dashed oft over the hill and disappeared. When nearly exhausted, Whitman heard his companion, Hutter, above him, coming to his assistance. He gathered renewed courage, and held *u desperately till Hurtter came and reached him. Hatter says the dog eame upon him and seied hold of his slothin , whining. He turned upon -ted som I "WIa Pand U.R w the Cabinet, shoesn u º WY" e fild, al of whom was Praw tt firmed by, the Senate: Esn. Jas. G. Blaine, the of State, is too well known I the country to need any introanftion. Hot lie bhas, heretofore, been considered a sls -* violent partisan and a bitter enemy fro at of the South.

He is the son- se he in-law of the late Simon Cameron. pe ent Robert Lincoln, the Secretary of P and War, is a young lawyer who has ac to quired ia good reputation at the Chi one cago bar. He is the son of President hey Lincoln. jhts Judge W. iH. Hunt, the Secretary c, ol'- of the Navy, is taken from the U. S. S. cr- Court of Claims. He comes from a r; do family which has won great distinc- c. ill tion at the bar and in the arena of will Louisiana politics. Since it has be-.

Mr. James, of New York, has been c L. Post Master of the Empire City. He suits Conkling, so rumor has it. Mr. New Kirkwood, of Iowa, is the Secretary of the Interior, has been Senator for four years and is personally popular. cifis The construction of the cabinet is fine considered a triumplh for the 1Blaine pern- wing of the party.

BAYOU MANCHAC. L We understand that a I)arty of U. cOiEl S. Survoyors are taking the levels of MAC - Bayou Manchac with the view of re- cVEI e porting upon the feasibility of open- CO(, n ing this natural canal to steamers TEA plying the Mississippi. By a system of locks, it is believed COF that the rich timber region accessible ROA 11 through the lManchac, might be open- suc ie ed to the markets of the coast and the BA ;n upper Mississippi. Steamers that SA s cannot now reach this splendid region STq at could easily enter it through this o- Bayou.
