Y'oune men in most townthougb, to their credit be it said, less in Shreveport than anv other place we know of aro in the habit on Sundays of congregating on corners and watching the young ladies as they pass to and from church, lo guard against any criticism the young ladies now make it a rule to have their nether extremities encased in a pair of those elegant shoes recently brought on by Messrs. Mulhaupt Stone.

The establishment ot Mr. Joseph Mc Evov. on Markot street, is not only one of the most complete jewelry stores in the Stale, but ts a workshop, so to speak. Mr. McEvov.

a thorough and finished work man in the fullest sense of the term, has employed one of the best gold and silversmiths to be found in the United Statos, and is now prepared to set diamonds, repair and manufacture all kinds of watches and jewelry. He guarantees perfect satisfaction in every instance. Grenadines of all the latest styles at n. Dreyfuss Son's. There is no more attractive or popular dry goods establishment than that of Ben Holzman, who has just returned from tho Northern cities where he has been on a pur chasing tour.

In buying goods he bas an eye to tho tasto of the Shreveport ladies and, having excellent taste himself, he never fails to meet their requirements. The finest dress goods, notions, embroidery, etc, can ba found in his store besides which there is a full supply of staple goods on hand. If there is ono thing that Ben excels in it is the remarkable cheapness of goods. Drop in and see him. The Pelican Clothing Store beats any thing ever seen in this city in tho lino of fancy pcrcal and white shirts for men and boys.

The display ot now goods at tha store of that famous boot, shoe and hat man E. Phelps, No. 82 street! is certainly enough to tempt anyone into possession of the countless beautiful things shown there. Whatever kind of boot or shoe that man or woman or child may desire can bo found there. If it is elegance that is wanted, it is found in the beautiful articles that fill the many cases.

If It Is hard Borneo, Hie article is there. His stock of hats is a marvel of eshness, embracing all the pretty things that have budded out with tho Spring of fashion. Of courso the prices correspond with the times. Sweet potatoes and onions just received at Daughtry's. It is necessary to remind our readers that John McCullough with his fine company will make their appearance of tho season at Tally's Opera House tomorrow evening.

If you wish an elegant meal, prepared by a first class French cook, go to the Commer cial Kcstaurant. The public generally, and tho ladies especially, will be gratified to learn that Julius A.

The stock comprises everything in the way of 6taplcs, ladies' dress goods, novelties, booL, shoes and hats, altogether making a display calculated to captivate the hearts of the gentler sex and invite, tho judicious expenditure of money by the ruder sex. We can say without dis paragement to the other merchants that the ladies can go to Mr. Jacobs' with tho assur-anca of finding exactly what they warit and whero tho prices are in accordance with the times. An extra article ot canned green corn just received at Daughtry's.

Fits. Mr. M. Levy, proprietor of the Star Clothing Emporium, gives his custom ers fits every time they patronize him. Don't bo alarmed, gentlemen, at this assertion; they aro not apoplectic fits; they are only a fashionable kind which have no dis astrous effects upon tho constitution.

Wo yesterday had the pleasure of meet ing our talented young friond W. H. Pope, Esq of Marshall. He paid a flying visit to the city on professional business.

Several parties have asked us recently the result of the trial of Col. Cash, of South Carolina, for the killing of Shannon in a duel. Ihe lurv disagreed, iour ot the jury wore in favor of conviction and eight for acquittal. We are 'gratified to see a disposition on the part of planters to plant small grain in view of the probably continued depression in the cotton market from an excessive supply. In this connection we would remark that Leon Carter has a supply of German millet seed on sale which is being largely bought up by sensible planters.

An appropriation of $70,000 yearly is enjoyed by the Church of England for the support of missionaries in Ceylon. It is said that in that isle of balmy breezes, "where only man is vilo," the Anglican communion numbers precisely seventeen native members, according to tho statistics published in a London paper. Evidently it is very hard to convert a Coylonese, or else somebody has been misappropriating the campaign funds. Many are the devices of the army of office-seekers to get the ear of President Garfield. The act of four loyal applicants who rode to the church on the rumble ot his carriage, plying him through the rear window with their petitions for the place of ganger in tho Cincinnati district, was hard ly so proper as the day demanded; and we might term the action of the two aspirants for weigher in the third Illinois district, who secreted themselves under his pew and employed the whole time of tho sermon in thrusting their petitions down the Presidential boots, as approaching tho very acme of tho indecorous.

Oysters, fish, quail on toast, and all the delicacies of tho local markot served in the finest style at tho Commercial Restaurant. Our friend, Capt. Dannals, of the steamer Kata Kinney, yesterday presented us with the "latest" paper we have ever seen the Boston Daily Globo of January 1st, 1181. All tho articles, whether editorials, news, ir local items, aro written from the stand-poii of a hundred years from now. Tho follov ing paragraph is an A disposition i.s apparent on tho part cf some financial journals to recommend giving up ail the railroads of this country as usielesa encumbrances.

It is held by people of prominence in afi'afrs that the land which they occupy would return more income if it reverted to ihe agriculturists for cultivation. There is tome plausibility in this view, but on tho whole we think it if a mistake. Kail roads are still useful, though in limited ways. The day of their employment for the transportation! passengers and perishable freight has evidently gone by forever. But bulkier and imperishable articles can still be carried more economically by terrestrial than aerial transportation lines.

Coal, for ins'ance. is in so little demand, compared with a few years ago, that there is no need of a i patch, and it can be moved by rail a few cents a ton cheaper than by aerial cars. The case is about the same with iron. Modern improvements have made it possible to carry iron on the earth without its all rusting away, so that speed is no desidoratum. Moreover, it would take some time for ihe men now employed by the railroads to habimuto tbuiusulyej to other occupations.

Samuel H. Irwin, cf Ute Creek, Colfax couuty, New Mexico, says: The Only Lung Pad has done more for my wife than all the gallons of cod liver oil, French, or American, she has taken, or all the doctor's medicines she has used.

Iivrs, March 19. The Republican has an article on tho narrow gaugn railroad system of Mexico which gives information Dot oetore made public. I ho statement is derived from the highest authority and may De relied upon. 1 lie Mexican government has granted very liberal subsidies to the projectors of the enterprise, who have or ganized under the name of the Mexican National Construction company, with ex-Gov. Hunt ot Colorado, manager, and Gen.

V. J. Palmer and James Sullivan occupying high positions. The road is to bo known as tho Mexican Central, and will be prac tically an extension of the Denver and Rio Grando road, although under a different organization. Under the provisions of the grant the Mexican National Construction company is required to build the first inter-oceanic line from the City ot Mexico to the Pacific ocean, passing through Toluca, Maravatio Acombero.

Monellia, amara and Capudad to Manzanillo, or betweon that point and Natividad. The second international line from the city of Mexico to the northern frontier, commencing at the most desirable point between Maravatio and Monolia, thence through San Luis Potosi, Saltillo and Monterey to Laredo on the Rio Grande, or between that point and Eaglo Pass. Although the grant was issued last fall, but few if any details have yet been published. The company is required to complete 277 miles ot tho road every two years. Tho inter- oeeanic lino must oe completed within fiv years, and the international within eight years from last September.

Under tho subsidy proper the government gives the company $11,265 per mile of road constructed on tho lino from Mexico City to the Pacific, and $10,400 per mile on the line to the northern frontier. Tho government will begin to pay the subsidy on completion of the first ninety two miles on the line from Mexico City to the Pacific. To in-domnify tho governtnenment aeainst failure to build tho line by the parties asking the concession, jos. euwvan nas deposited cash in the national Monto de Pie-das, which is to remain on deposit until sixty-two miles from Mexico to the Pacific aro completed. Tho amount can then be withdrawn and an equal amount of the first mortgage bonds of the railroad company substituted.

The entire line, when completed, will be about two thousand mile long. The Republican also has information from an official of the Denver and Rio Grande that the road will be completed to Larodo in two years. The lino is now finished to Santa Cruz, N. and is being vigorously pushed southward. The incompleted road from Corpus Christi, Texas, at the north of the Rio Grando at Laredo has recently been purchased by the Denver and Rio Grando company and.

the 40 mile gap in it will be finished as speedily as grading and track laying can be accomplished. When this work is done it will afford connection between Laredo and Gal veston and New Orleans and other gulf ports, and it will Do great aid in the transportation of supplies, iron, to contractors on the Mexican line proper.

Roes and His Saloon. There is no man in Shreveport mere worthy of pa tronage than Mr. Roos, or ono who does more to meet the requirements of his many customers. One of the most attractive features of his establishment is the dining hall on the second floor whero ladies or gentlemen can be served with tho finest meals and whero all the surroundings are neat, clegar.t and comfortable. The ladies' entrance is on Spring street, and the hall is entirely separate from the saloon.

Ho has a first-class French cook employed who prepares dishes as only a Frenchman can Oysters, red fish, salt water and mountain trout, (soft shell crabs, shrimp, are daily received on ice from Galveston; while quail and wild game of all kinds and tho most choice of beef, mutton, pig, etc, are provided from tho Jjome market. The bar is tastefully arranged, from which is dispensed tho coldest of beer, fine wines and brandies and tho celebrated Monogram whisky. Tho lunch department is first-class. Y'ou can get a lunch at from tjn cents to a dollar you lake your choice and pay your money. In short, Mr.

Roos deserves public pa tronagc. Ho not only keeps a complete c. tablishment, but is a clever and liberal gen. tlcraan withal. Pure codfish at Daughtry's.

There is no doubt that many are worthless, yet a remedy that has stood the test for years, like Dr. Sherman's Prickly Ash Bitters, and its sale and Kpularity increasing every day, must have merit or it would have disappeared long since.
