The following is an extract OF letter,
from the honorable Francis \. Martin, OF
New-Orleans, bearing the date of the Cpd
July last, addressed to gentleman IN
Georgia. Ii will be found to contain a
most concise and minute topography OF
the state of Louisiana, and must be high
" interesting to the enterprising OF all de-
scriptions.
Sir-You are not deceived in the idea
you have formed Of the prosperity OF this
state. believe in no part of the United
States is agriculture more profitable
Some of our sugar planters derive re
venue of LOCO dolls. in some years, from
the annual labor Of each of their working
bands--from 500 to 75o is the ordinary
calculation and, al the present price of
cotton, (33 dolls } it is imagined that if
he disease which Injuries the plant at pre-
sent subsidies. the culture Of that article
is equally profitable.
There is no difficulty in obtaining land
in this state, but slaves are extremely
scarce and dear in the market An or
binary field hand, born in the country, or
seasoned thereto, is worth from 500 to2,-
600 dolls in cash geutesl house servants
command 5000.
From the Balize to Baton Ronge, on
one side Of the Mississippi and the Red
River on the other, land sells by the front
acre the usual depth OF each tract is 10,
and sometimes SO acres-bui the first 90
acres immediately on the river are alone
cultivatable, upon an average; beyond
this is an impenetrable cypress sw amp,
constantly under water-tfe cultivatabie
land being narrow ribband on eace side
of the river, and the sand gradually slo-
ping from the river. Within the first ten
miles above and below the city of New
Orleans, on either shore, the front acre
sells from 2 900 10 1000 dollars and as
you reeede from the city, the land becomes
proportionably cheaper.
The plantations there are burthehed
with the keeping of the lever or dyke that
secures them from inundation; and the
road wilhits bitches and bridges labor
which, some planters say, employs the
sixth part OF the labor of their hands.
On the shores of the Mississippi, within
the limits speak of, sugar is the princi-
pal staple commodity; there are, how
ever, in the upper part of it, several cot
ton farms. Beyond the narrow strip Of
cultivatable land which extends along the
western shore of the Mississippi, is dismal
swamp, bounded by lakes and increases,
which extend to the distance of about 40
miles, when another cypress swamp bounds
the eastern side of the lands in the nent
county, Altakapas. Here, on the sea shore,

Awake like yernal morn!
Smile like the tud that banquets May
Thou Rose, without Thorn!
Eliza, wake! he chides the hour
For whom thy sweets exhale-

The lilly OF the vale!
The rose and lilly shed perfume
The strawberry bushes sweet;
But in Thy lovelier breath and bloom,
Their hues and fragrance meet!
Warm, d by the sun, can Heavens blue face
Seen through the chrystal brock
Serene, exhibit brighter grace
Than warns thy modest look
But lilies white, nor roses red;
Nor heavens blue lace rehn'd--
Can such enchanting graces shed,
As deck thy beauteous mind.

The charm that ne 'er can cioy;
Rare mind can bid delight endure,

FROM ST. MARY's.
Captain Chevalier, from St. Mary's, who
arrived at this port yesterday, states, that
on Monday last fire broke out in the
woods near that place, which threatened
destruction TO the whole place; a strong
westerly wind was blowing at the time
and it was with great difficulty the inhabi
tants saved the town. The Presbyterian
church once caught, but the fire was ex-
tinguished before any essential damage was
done.
The Newt Orleans Gazette, fApril Gath
says, ian unfortunate occurrence took place
yesterday morning in the Fauxbourg ST.
Mari. An officer of the United States army
in the attempt to arrest deserter from the
service, fired upon and killed him. We are
not in possession of the facts which coca.
stoned this event, and even if we were, We
are not the tribunal to judge of them, but
we must say, that the conduct of paryoI
minimizing individuals were well ngf eau
sing serious tumult, which might hare
endangered the lives ofmany individuals"
A considerable sensation oflate has been
created by the conduct of the commanding
officer at Pensacola. in ordering all desert
ers to be shot. without being brought to
trial. We hope on an investigation this
will not prove to be the case at New-or'
leans. philadelphia Daily .4dv.
