J. G. ST. JULIEN, LAFAYETTE.--J. G. St. Julien is a native of Louisiana, born
1844.  His father was an extensive planter of Lafayette parish.  He died in
1867, of yellow fever.

J. G. St. Julien received the benefit of a good education as a boy.  In 1863,
he enlisted in the Confederate States service, Eighteenth Louisiana Regiment,
General Mouton's brigade and General Taylor's division.  Mr. St. Julien is a
planter, and in flourishing circumstances.  His plantation consists of fifteen
hundred acres of land, and is a model one.  In former years Mr. St. Julien
gave his exclusive attention to stock raising, and has only recently combined
with this the raising of cotton.  Mr. St. Julien is a member of the police

nothing in his power undone for the general improvement and development of his
parish.  He is a member of the Farmers' Alliance, and is a Democrat in
