4 ATURDAT HORNING, AUG. 39, 186S I (Prom vox evening Bdltton e( Yesterday. 1 Thanks. To the clerk of the steamer ranees for mobile papers. We return our thanks to the mem bers of the BUir Sentinels for having placed us upon their roll of honorary members.

In order that their employes may have ample time to prepare for the Grand Parade this evening, would it not be well for our merchants to close their offices and stores at an early hour We would also suggest that all steamers advertised to leave early, to morrow evening, delay their departure until 10 or 11 o'clock, in order to ive passengers an opportunity of witnessing the pageant In both suggestions we but express the desire of large numbers of the community. Praying for a Eiot. The Radical ire pullers in Washington are in want of uouucai xney are saia to oe daily praying for a riot at the South. Another Defection. The Montgomery Mail learns that Dr.

F. W. Sykes, who was President of the first Radical Convention which ever assembled in Alabama, is on the stump for Seymour and Blair. A flag and banner presentation is to iak A nlnAA tswlnv at nV.Ino.fc. At thn when the young ladies of that populous suburb of the city will present to the National Democratic Club of that place a flag and to the Algiers Seymour and Blair Knights a banner.

The presentation will be made on behalf of the young ladies by the Senator from the Fourth District of the city, Mr. A. B. Bacon, who formerly resided in Algiers. Robert E.

Lee. A correspondent of the Cleveland Leader, writing from Lexington, Bays In the shady streets of Lexington, Robert Lee is seldom seen bnt on a Sunday, when with his life long punctuality he goes to church and makes the promptest responses. He is the most remarkable man in manv Tl 111 zuuuug weee ex VyomeuorBMj ulcere crumoies my superstitions about all bnt him. Bat Lee is the immutable respectability that cannot disprove, diminish nor despise. Striking ont of sight his original treachery, he is the most perfect union of manners, honors, morals, prudences that I have ever studied.

Here at Lexington he seldom mentions the war. It is history elsewhere, silence to him. His administration of this college is a more perfect success, if possible, than nis handling of an army. He takes the personal bond of very many of the students that if they ever become able they will pay for their tuition. His life is in his acts, not in his character.

And yet, with all this owned, there is no man I dislike more in the South in the light of republicanism and the American future. In that strange carriage, mellowed gray hair, and composed face that is ever beautiful now, there is no confession of sympathy with Democratic aims, no American saliences of charactera subject's content only in the church and the State, not a citizen's equal aspiration and popular pulse. Banner Pi eoeatatloa te the Hibernia Democratic einb of the Third District. The members of that fine Democratic club. the Hibernia Club, composed of the bone and sinew of the Third District, numbering some three hundred, met on Thursday night at their eadq uarters.

Ko. 3 Marion oildin m. Koon did brass band, marched to the Carroll Hall. corner of xUysian Kields ana Ureatmen streets. They were soon joinrd by the Seymour Yi dettes and Democratic Spirit of '68, two splendid organizations of the Third District.

The hall was handsomely decorated. On an elevated platform at the head of the hall were seated beautiful little girls representing the States of the Union. The haLrwas filled to overflowing the front seats were occupied by the ladies of the Third District. The banner, a beautiful green silk one, appropriately in cribed, was presented by Miss Maggie J. Cochrane, a charming little miss of seven summers, daughter of Edward Cochrane, kwfao delivered the following little speech: Gentlemen of the Hibernian Democratic Club.

With pleasure I present you this banner, hoping yoQ will be victorious in the election of the people's candidates, Seymour and Blair. The banner was received on behalf of the club by Mr. W. J. Kelly, the worthy Presi dent of the Hibernia Club, in a telling address, which called forth great applause.

The Hibernia Clab, accompanied by two visiting clubs, then proceeded to the residence of Mr. Kelly, on Moreau street, where they were presented, bv Mrs. Kelly and the ladies of the Third District, with a fine U. S. flag and wreath.

The presentation addreBS was hvered by Mr. W. B. Lancaster, and Mr. fVRriAfi MMiv1 triA fluff mi hAhlf nf the club.

Both addresses were short and well worded. The club then paid visits to the residences of Messrs. J. H. Williams, C.

Sporl and Edw. Cochrane, where they were well entertained. The club was marshaled by the following officers W. J. Kelly, President P.

Bradly, Grand Marshal E. D. White, M. J. O'Brien, F.

Cnllen, Wo. Hannon, Wm. Dillon, rAids; D. D. O'Brien.

Secretary. We take this method of thanking the officers and members of the Hibernia Democratic Club for their many tokens of regard tor the Picayune. Bocqcet Presentation to the Fossil Guards Junior. On their march up Camp street last evening the Fossil Guards Junior were the recipients of eight choice and beautiful bouquets from the hands of Mr. D.

New stead. The club halted iu front of his residence, illuminated for the occasion with Chinese lanterns, when he stepped forward and said: "Young men of Louisiana, I cannot bnt admire the bright and intelligent faces of the members of your club, and am well satisfied that yon have a correct knowledge of the principles of the Democratic party, which is now on the road to success. It affords me pleasure to offer to the cause, through you, this floral tribute." With three times three cheer for Mr. Newstead the elnb came to a. shoulder torch," und the march was resumed.

Young Ladies Boarding and Day School Mrs. C. Charlv whose young ladies institute is so well known and so liberally patronized in New Orleans, announces that the session of 9 will coctqience on the 1st of September. The services of able professors have been sec a red, and very "facility is offered for the acquisition of French, English, Latin, German and music Persons desiring farther information should address Mrs. Charles at the school, 202 Camp street, or box 3141 P.

This indispensable companion is not, as might be supposed, an agreeable young woman but a species of shoe adapted to walking on the sand. Et tu Brute! The exclamation. instantly riees to our lips on seeing this in the Boston Advertiser Two persons are under trial in Detroit for smuggling nutmegs. That comes of not patronizing home manufactures.

Democratic Prospect at the North, East aad West. If the result bnt half fulfills the promise, the indications are that Seymour and Blair will be triumphantly elected in November next.

The published reports, which fill our Northern, Eastern and Western exchanges in respect to the Democratic canvass in those sections, show an unprecedented awakening of the people to the important crisis in then political existence, on the issue of which depends the salvation or destruction of constitutional government in this country. A thorough organization of the party has been effected in every precinct, township, county, village and city, in most cases by the voluntary action of the masses, who seem now to be leading, or rather driving their leaders, who work as party chiefs worked before. The activity in the Democratic ranks is made the more manifest by the apathetic condition of the Radical party, which elicits rebuke and anxious exhortation from the press of that party, in those moments of soberness, which succeed editorial periods of vain boasting. The New York Tribune, which may be regarded as the pulse of the party, fluctuates ominously between doubtful hope and positive despair one day furiously denunciatory of the Democratic nominees, as though conscious of its power to override and destroy them, and sanguine of the prospect the next day, full of warnings and exhortations to its party to work like beavers if it would overcome a formidable foe. There is nothing of that serene confidence in ultimate success which formerly distinguished the Tribune, when it was sure of the sympathy of the people with the ostensible purposes of the Radical party.

The people have now risen against that party, to whose villainies their eyes have been opened. The September and October elections will show how nearly the press has represented Northern feeling. 1 (Communicated. The Taxes That Colored People Pay. Colored You who own no land or houses may be disposed to chuckle over the groanlng8 of the white people nnderthe loads of taxation imposed your friends (1), the carpet baggers.

I want to tell you that every colored man in the State pays a very heavy tax to support Radical and carpet bag rule. Yon all remember the good old times when you could buy a pound of coffee for twelve cents. Now you pay thirty cents, so that yon pay a tax of eighteen cents on every pound of coffee sugar was formerly to eight cents, it is now twenty cents, here is a tax of ten to twelve cents on every pound of sugar you consume. Yon also pay a tax of twenty five to thirty cents on every pound of tobacco fifty cents to one dollar on every pair of shoes yon bny for yourself or family, ten cents on every yard of calico or cotton, and all other articles of clothing in proportion. And whiskey, oh golly Don't yon remember when you could buy a gallon for twenty five cents.

A whole gallon of good, honest corn whiskey, and jug thrown in, for thirty to forty cents. Whiskey that made your heart glad and your face shine. Now yon scarcely ever get even a smell, and if you do, it is such poisonous stuff that a pint" would kill yon. I might extend this list to bacon, corn meal, flour, and in fact everything you eat or wearj so that the poorest of yon pay as much tax in proportion to the money yon earn, as the landlord who owns whole rows or blocks of houses. No wonder then that your poor wives and children are naked and don't get half enough to eat.

The Radicals promise much. Don't you see your own wretched condition Rags to your backs, hunger to your stomachs is all you get, while by your votes you have elevated them to offices where they get from five to twenty five thousand dollars a year. Now the Democratic party promise you protection and the full enjoyment of all your rights. They promise to give us better money, so that when yon earn a dollar by your labor, it will be a dollar and no aham. They promise to red ace taxation, so that everything we eat and wear will be cheaper.

Enterprise will be encouraged, people wilt build bouses, make railroads and open plantations, and every working man will receive liberal wages in good money, so that your wives and children can be decently clothed and well fed, and we will all live together in peace, love and pros perity. H. Salon Rouge, Oroe TeU and Ojieloutan JKailroud. At a meeting ot the directors ol this company, held Tuesday, Aug. Sjih, it was resolved to endeavor to at once place the road in running order, provided that the small amount required for the purpose can be obtained.

It will be seen by reference to the extract from the proceedings of the board, that the company does not appeal for donations of but otters to exchange its securities for current money, with which to prosecute the work. If a prompt answer be made to the proposition of the company, by those who are able to invest small amounts in the coupons of the city bonds, or in certificates of indebtedness of the company, the locomotive will be making regular trips prior to the 1st of October. The Grosse Tete Railroad has cost near one half million of dollars in gold. The capital invested is laying dormant in the swamp, because of the want of a few thousand dollars to repair the embankments, bridges and motive power. Baton Rouge Advocate.

Plan for Destroiing Weevil. The Brenham (Texas) Banner is assured that the following plan ot destroyingWeevil and keeping corn for twelve or eighteen months is effectual. It has in miniature at its office the mechanism by which the important purpose is secured, which it describes as follows Common frame or log cribs are filled till the corn is two or three feet deep from the floor, then a long box, made of inch plank say twelve or fourteen inches wide, which is perforated, like a pepper box, with augur holes on all sides is placed on top of the corn this box must reach through the crib. At the end of this main box, which projects through the wall of the crib, is another box fitting closely into this, and pointing toward the ground at abont an angle of forty five degrees, and reaching nearly to the ground, below the lower end of which a plate or pan containing sulphur is ignited, and the smoke introduced in the larger box, throwing the gas all through the corn without damage to it, killing all the weevils, rats, mice, in the crib without the least injury to the corn. Our farmers are beginning already to buy them in time to save the present crop.

It is certainly economy in the planter to pay $10 and save bis crop of corn from damage by the weevils. Bow to Rend the Clouds. Soft looking er delicate clouds foretell fine weather, with moderate or light breezes hard edged, oily looking clouds, wind. A dark, gloomy blue ky is windy but a light, bright blue sky indicates fine weather. Generally the softer clouds look the lees wind, but perhaps more rain may be expected and the harder, more greasy," rolled, tufted, or rugged, the stronger the coming wind will prove.

Also, a bright yellow sky at sunset presages wind a pale, yellow, wet; and a greenish, sickly yoking color, wind and rain. Thus, by the prevalence ol red, yellow, or other tints, the coming weather may be foretold very nearly indeed, if aided by instruments, almost exact lv.

Some murmur when their sky is clear, And wholly bright to view, If one small speck of dark appear In their great heaven of blue.

rich provision made. Richard C. Trench. THE CITY. The Weather.

The thermometer at 6 o'clock this morning was at 79, and at 10 o'clock was at 84 J. The morning was pleasant and agreeable, with a cool wind blowing from the northeast, and an occasional cloud in the disc of the son. Attempt to Kill. A man by the name of Ernest Loeser was arrested last night by Officer Ryan on a warrant charged by M. J.

Farrell with shooting with intent to kill the little girl, the daughter of Mr. Miller, on the 23d in a city railroad car. Some half dozen persons have been heretofore arrested as accessories, but it appears that the man Loeser is the person who tired the pistol. Perjury. Yesterday Joseph Van Orten was arrested on a warrant from the Recorder's court, by Officer Siers, on a charge, preferred by Lavinia Casson, of perjury.

He was taken to the Second District station, and gave bail for his appearance when called for. The offence is alleged to have been committed some time since, and relates to testimony given by accused in court. Embezzlement. Several cases of embezzlement and breach of trust are to be tried by the different Recorders this morning. Iu most instances they are trivial and unimportant.

But they nevertheless illustrate the predisposition of people under excitement to make criminal charges about matters which bear no relation to crime. Insane. A young woman named Mary Pane was arrested by Officer Petteway, on Canal street, evidently insane. For a long time she has been subject to temporary aberrations of the mind, and at times becomes violent. She was in one of these moods yesterday.

She will be sent to the asylum. Attempt at Burglary. Some time during last night, unknown persons attempted to enter the residence of Jos. A. Kennard, on Common street; bnt, before accomplishing their object, left.

It is probable they were frightened away by the approach of the watchman. None of the family were aroused. Larceny. John Sntton was arrested last night, accused by T. G.

Anderson of the larceny of $25 in currency and a suit of wearing apparel. He will have to give an account of the transaction, to day, before the Recorder. False Pretenses. A young man named Charles Ferguson was arrested yesterday, charged by Wm. Barker with obtaining $250 from him by false representations and pretenses.

It appears from the statement of the complainant that the offence was committed some time last summer. Counterfeiting. John Gaines, with some half dozen aliases, was arrested yesterday, on complaint of Elihn Evant, who charges him with passing counterfeit money, knowing the same to le spurious. He is a well known criminal, and doubtless belongs to the gang of counterfeiters who have for some time been infesting the city. Accused of Larceny.

A gentleman in appearance, giving the name of Col. R. R. White, was arrested by Special Officer Carr, on the Jackson Railroad, a few days since, and brought to this city yesterday, charged by Mr. Knox with the larceny of a watch valued at $700.

The transaction is alleged to have occurred several months since. The watch was advertised at the time through the daily papers, and a reward ottered for the apprehension of the thief. The accused is of respectable family, and is evidently a man of education and culture. He bitterly denies the charge; but has volunteered no explanation of the The case will be examined to day before Recorder Becker. Rbcohder Bkcker's Court.

Krnest Loieea, accused of firing a pistol with intent to kill, was remanded until further orders from the court. The same disposition was made of Harriet Youug, accused of larceny. Sua Lemons, charged with assault and bat tery, was required to enter into bonds to pre serve the peace in future. Washington Benjamin, on a charge of Iar ceny, was remanded, to appear before the Criminal Court The same disposition was made of Gus lbompson, arrested on a similar charge. Joseph Lyons was amerced in a small tine lor tne privilege ot disturomg the peace.

John Graham was similarly untortunate. Annie O'Brien armeared on the old charce and was disposed ot as usual. Minor onences as usual. SELECT Tlie MISSES MOISR will open on MONDAY, the 3d day of August. 1888, a school for young ladies at reeiJence, ou St.
