Excitement in Texas.

Great excitement has been causedin the vicin-

ity of Paris, Tex.. by the remarkable recoveryof Mr. J. E. Corley, who was so helpless he

could not turn in bed. or raise his head; every-body said he was dying of Consumption. A

trial bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery wassent him. Finding relief, he bought, a largebottle and a box of Dr. King's New Life Pillsby the time he had taken two boxes of Pills andtwo bottles of the Discovery, he was well andhad gained in flesh thirty-si A'nds.

Trial Bottles of this Great Discovery for Con-sumption free at J. H. Matlien's.

Parole whiskey at Reddingt p's Mechan-Fs' Exchange.

SoGAB SQuIBs.--Grinding is progressingsatisfactorily at the sugar-housee underway throughout the parish excepting Mc-Call Bros.', where a slight accident to someportion of the machinery has caused a tem-porary delay. The damage will be repaired

in season to resume operations on Monday.A leaky boiler at the New Hope place is

being repaired by Messrs. John McPeet &Son. As there are three batteries of boilers,each independent of the other, no stoppageof the mill occurred.

Among the mills that have started du-ring the week are those of the Souvenir,Evan Hall, McManor, Adlard Landry, NewHope, Palo Alto and Rodrigue places, onthe right bank of the river and Bayou La-fourche, the Southwood, Bowdon, Conway

and Honmas places on the left bank of the

river.Cane cutting began at Crossley & Son's

Riverside place yesterday, and hauling tothe -Southwood mill will be commencedMonday.

The Mt. Houmas, Hermitage, Clark, Or-ange Grove and Riverton mills, left bank,will be started during the coming week,as will those of the Pelico, Peytavin, River-side, Point Honmas places, right bank; St.

Elizabeth, Crescent and Belleterre, leftbank of Bayou Lafourche.

Messrs. Reuss and Ballard of the firstward will not begin grinding until the 26thinst., or later. Work on the Germania millwill not be completed in time for an earlierstart.

The first sample of sugar to reach theCa-mT office comes from the little place ofMr. Leon Babin, on Bayou Lafourche nearDonaldsonvile. It is of excellent grainand pretty color, and is a fine specimen ofthe product attainable by the open kettleprocess.

The weather continues clear and cool-allthat could be desired to ripen the cane andincrease its sugar giving capacity-andthe prospect for a heavy crop is extremelyencouraging. The market is still firm andeverything points to " a good sugar year"for the planters and people of lower Lou-isiana.

Planters in need of firemen or otherskilled laborers wil do well to apply to Mr.Patrick Reddington, of the Mechanics' Ex-change Employment and ContractingAgency, who can furnish reliable men withfirst-class references.

No meeting of the Police Jury was heldWednesday. Cause, lack of a quorum.

The tremendous increase of business atMrs. M. Israel & Co.'s has necessitatedthe employment of five new clerks, and thewhole force is on duty from daylight to mid-

night selling and arranging the immensestock of new goods arriving daily from theNorth.

A note from an old friend Judge HiramH. Carver of Napoleonville informs us thathe attained the mature age of 54 years onthe 15th inst. The Judge says, "I expectto live to see the light of the next century,at which time I hope that all d-d rascalswill have ceased to adorn this mundanesphere; that, by a curious system of leger-

demain, honest men, editors, printers, et idomue genus, will be shuffled to the top ofthe deck." The CBIEF trusts all the antic-ipation, of Judge Carver will be fully re-

alized and that, should all the others fai',it will not be the expectation that he willlive to see the birth of 1900.

Died.MARTINEZ-At Donaldsonville, La., on Sun-

day. October 11, 1885, at 4 o'clock P. M., Mrs.OLYMPE SMITH, wife of JOHN MARTINEZ, aged57 years and 10 months.

This much respected lady had been in poorhealth for about two years, and was confinedto her bed more than eight weeks prior to herdemise. She bore her sufferings with greatfortitude and died a sweet and peaceful deathwith a crucifix in her hand and a prayer on herlips, Conscious of her approaching dissolu-tion she summoned her husband, foster chil-dren and other relatives and friends to her bed-side and bade them an affectionate farewell.giving instructions as to the manner in whichshe desired to be buried, with as much uncon,cern as if speaking of some matter of ordinaryhousehold routine. Having lived a truly Chris-tian life, it was natural that she should meetthe Angel of Death without fear, strong in thefaith of a translation of her spirit to a sphereof never ending happiness.

Mrs. Martinez was a native of Assumptionparish, but had resided in Donaldsonville formany years. Her mother was a Miss MaryPlaisance of Assumption; her father, DanielSmith of Baltimore, a skillful carpenter andbuilder, who put up the first sugar-mill of thepattern now in universal use in Louisiana. Hemade the rollers of oak and it is claimed thatthe iron rollers of the present day are virtuallyidentical in form and principle of action withhis modern ones. Besides a husband to whomshe was for many years a dutiful and lovinghelpmeet, Mrs. Martinez leaves two fosterchildren, Mr. Frank Martinez and his sister.Mrs. S. M. Fucich, to mourn the loss of onewho was to them all that a tender and affec-tionate mother could be.

The funeral Monday evening was largely at-tended and the mortal remains of the lamenteddeceased found a resting place in the sacredground of ths Catholic Cemetery of this place.Services at the church and grave were con-ducted by Rev. Father Dubernaard, who hadalso visited Mrs. Martlnez daring her last hoursand administered the sacrament of extremeunction.

TIHE undersigned, in his capacity as Inspec-Itor of Weights and Measures for this par-

ish. has visited the sugar plantations for thepurpose of inspecting the scales used for weigh-ing cane. etc.. and has met with courteoustreatment, prompt recognition of his officialauthority and cheerful payment of legal fees inevery instance excepting at the hands of Mr.Henry McCall of the Evan Hall plantation. Idesire to return thanks to the other planters ofthe parish for their gentlemanly treatment andto express my surprise that Mr. McCall. himselfa parochial official, should presume to set atnaught the authority of a representative of thelaw and the government holding a commissionfrom the same Chief Executive who appointedMr. McCall a member of the Police Jury. Ifsuch examples of contempt of law are to be setby their law makers. what is to be expected ofthe people at large? S~simldmen be selected toframe laws for the government of others whothemselves set higher statutes at defiance? Ithink not, and if the citizens of the first wardwere allowed a voice in the choice of their rep-resentative on the Police Jury, I know theywould demonstrate their concurrence in thisopinion.
