rights as freemen, and the honor of their
country to fall in with me, and as early

ty five to one hundred men will consti
tute â company, each man tobe furnished
with a double barrel shot gun of rifle«
and if possible a brace of pistols; the
size of the horse will not bo objected to (
if he can carry Iiis rider with ease» this is
110 time for words or I would show the,
advantage that the State will derive,
from such a Regiment as this is désigna-,

act of the Southern Congress entitled
"An act to provide for local defence and

. Thitf. gentleman is a candidate before^*

claims to be the people's choice at the

to-day, for at this critical juncture in
the history ; of our State, he desires to
jnakSv .no party appeal". * • We must put
tbt^jtfen, in oui- opinion, best fitted for
pubîi'ç station and -honorary preferment
fend îf-the_gentleinan, whose riame heads
"this «oticë'iS brought o,ut, it" is upon the
Consideration that Avoyelles, Point
Coupée and West Feliciana, would be
sàfêly, wisely aüd ably represented in
the dipper house of .our legislature. Mr
R*l efficiën&y is well-knort n. He.pos
sesses to a greàt degree : the science of
ofîgovernment. He la no lawyer; 'cis-'true,'
but lo legislate: one is not absolutely
Bunder the obligation to have acquired a
Or-Bname among the Baristers. It is enough
ils'to have a man sound upon the prin
Jciples we have lately inaugurated, a man
able to discuss questions of political t»co
Homy, finances» relations between the
Confederate government and the State
and in our candidate we find all that can
be required' to satisfy^ even the most
scrupulous minds. We do not arrogate
to ourselves the right to say that Mr. R.
alone is fit and proper from among our
eitizens to fil! that high station, but Ave
«re satisfied that the great majority, of
our voters will sanction the opinion we
entertain of him, and then Send to, the
Senate the man who will désefrâ theiîll
Çtire approbation of all, which never fai
Jled him during the period he acted, in
"this parish, as Sheriff and. as Clerk of the
District Court»
HON. G. P. VOORMES.
We have been for the last two years a
close observer of that gentleman's course
in the Legislature, and we can truly say
that a more popular, a more energetic
and a better member than him was not
to be found among his compeers, within
the hemicycle of tho Representatives
Hall. In address, deportment and tact
of business, our honorable friend had few
equals. True to his friends, grateful to
the parish he represented, all his labors
jVere turned to do good and to reflect
honor upon the people who elevated him
to a high position j and it is for us, now,
to return the coiuplimeht heso richly de
serves. These timeP .artf critical but glo
rious. The Sotttli, threatened by the
powerful armaments of the Northern deft
pot, rises in grandeur and in tieroisig, iti
presence of imminent danger. Her sons
are eager for the fight, and, all over the
country, the hammer and the furnace
beats and melts the metal that'Will arm
their hands. Already» immortal laurels
crown the brows of our soldiers and #e
want, at this great epock ôf our history,
our deliberative assemblies to be filled

Born of old democratic stock, Hob,

:
Now that our own State is threatened]
with invasion by the Vandals of Lin
colndom and predatory incursions have'
1 ' " ' '■ ■ 1 1 1
Rctüally been made upon ourTmpmtt* 1 ""
southern border, our attention should
rected nearer home and the means pro
vided for repelling an insulting foe. Tho
Confederate Government is alive to the
importance it attaches to the Gulf States*
and has forwarded guns of large calibre
cities of New
avenues to those great commercial marts
Already has the Confederate Congress
enacted a law for the Home Defense of
the several States and provided means
for the execution of its measures j Gov
Moore has 1'esolVed to • send no more
troops from our State for foreign service,
and other precautions are adopted for the
protection of Louisiana soil- from the
unhallowed tread of a beastly enemy, all
of which seem to indicate à reasonable
apprehension in the minds of our officers
that the invasion of our State is contem
plated by the naval expedition how fit
ting out in Hamptoù Rsads.
Too much importance therefore can
not be attached to the adoption of protec
live policy every where in Louisiana* We
4
were r pleased to' see to-day a letter fromTthe
the acting Secretary of war^ J. P. Ben-|j
jamin, addressed' to our patriotic fellow-ffor
oitizen, Col. B. W. Blakewood upon tbisl
