ECLIPSE OF THE SUN.--On our first page will be
found an account of the Eclipse to take place on
Tuesday next, (the lSth) abridged from that valua
BILE publication, the American Almanac, published
at Boston. AT this city the eclipse will be annnlar
and very nearly central in which citizens may
feel that their advantages somewhat superior to
the inhabitants of any other latitude and longitude
The eclipse will begin at about FIVE minutes pas
three, in the afternoon, mean time. The ring will
form about "a minutes after four, and last about
five minutes. The duration of the eclipse will BE-
2 hours, 80 minutes and AZ seconds.
1t is possible that the planet Venus may be seen
with the naked eye, during the greatest obscura
ton. ,..... Ia. .u. ... -...."|
This will be the last central eclipse of the Sun,
visible in the United States until 1854.

The consumption of Cotton in Great Britain has
been regularly progressive since 1910 In that the
consumption was O,200 bales, and in 1897 it was
1850, SIS bales The New Orlenns Bee, from which
we derive these facts puts down the product of Louis
ana at 200 900 bales year. for the last three years
The average annual production Of Sugar in Louisiana is
estimated at about 900 hhds for the period
elusive Of Molasses Syrup and Rum distilled therefrom
This would represent annual value of $4,000 00O

alone as the products Of Louisiana

THE INFIRMITIEs OF THE GLOBE.

ave know what we are,
But, we know not what may be-"
We doubt if the history Of this country
furnishes more than one instance Of political
regeneration, to be compared with that which
has attended the life Of Mr.. Calhoun, for the
last twenty-five years. That one exception,
that we would instance, is the Globe, the Off
cial organ of the Administration.
We bring the Globe to give evidence to
confirm our opinion as to Mr.. Calhoun to
convey the evidence Of Mr.. Calhoun's opin-
ion Of the Globe, and then, the evidence Of
the Globe against itself!
For nearly seven years the Globe was I'M
ceasing and untiring in its assaults on Mr.. Cal
houn as its columns will show.
We give few extracts, by the way Of illus
tration. In the early part of the year, 1888,
the Globe thus spoke:
"What a blessing ]. G. CALHOUN has proved to the
whole South! In reaching for the Presidency he
trbuted his efforts to build up the American system
the observation-disclosures Improvements-and thus
for almost twenty years the Southern States have been
drained of their wealth At last, seeking power from
another direction, he originated Nullihcaon to be con-
sutninateupy seCessioh.
In the foregoing, Mr.. Calhoun was charged
with being the Father of the Tarif-the
American systematic Bank-Internal I'm
provements-and finally, Of MULTIPLICATION
Now, here is pretty long category Of charges,
but they are like grain Of mustard seed,
compared with what followed.
On the 3lst day Of January, 1885, the
Globe indirectly charged Mr.. Calhoun with
having nstigated the attempt that was made
to assassinate the President. 1t said:
eff he (Lawrence) had heard and bel,eped Mr. Cal.
houns speech the day before yesterday he would have
found in it ample justification for his attempt on one
who was represented the of the most dreadful
calamities 10 the nation"
Such henous offence as this ascribcd to
Mr.. Calhoun, by the official organ, very ma
turally aroused his sensibilites, and excited a
spirit Of retaliation. Accordingly, on the 4th
Of February following, Mr.. c., in his place
in the Senate, thus expressed himself in re-
ference to the official organ Whaferer
may be the character Of The paper, (the Globe)
HOWEVER BASE AND PROSTITUTE,
IL is the kno,cn authentic and established organ
of The Erecutire, sustained by its porcer, and
pampered By lis hands"
On the following day, the Globe by way, IN
part only Of retaliation, put forth the follow
ing:

DEsULroRY READING.
OF LOVE.

.
We must dedicate some Of the fruits of our desul-
tory reading on this mysterious but interesting sub
ject TO the ladies, for whose especial benefit we
make up the jewels"
LOVE, they say invented the art Of tracing like
nesses and thereby led the way to portrait painting
-S0nthsy
If love, simple love, is the worst OF poets, that
same simple love is beyond comparison the best OF
letter writer's In love poems c0nceis are distilled
from the head in loye-leers feelings flow from the
heart; and feelings are never so feelingly uttered,
affection aectionately expressed, truth ne
yer SO truly spoken, as in such correspondence
ID.
Happy indeed is he, says Drammoad, 49,.
Who love enjoys, and placed hath his mind
Where fairest virtues fairest beauties grace,
Then In himself such store Of wealth doth find
That he deserves to find SO good place
And Allan Cunningham thus records his tesi-
mony:- f.. a..
True gentle love is like the summer dew.
Which falls around when all is still and hush;
And falls unseen until It's bright drops strew
With odours, herb and flower, and bank and
Oh ove-when womanhood is in the flush,
And mans ayoung and an unspotted thing,
His first breathed word, and her halfconscious
blush,
Are fair as ligh, in heaven, or flowers in spring
It is seldom that poetry is written worthy OF this
subject The following may be called SO. 1t is by
the Manchester poet Charles Swain
l.
Lowell will tell thee what it is to love a#..s.
1t is to build with human thoughts shrine,
Where Hope sits brooding like heauteous dove;
Where Time seems young, and Life thing divine
All tastes, all pleasures all desires combine
To consecrate this sanctuary Of bliss,
Above, the stars in shroudess beauty shine
Around, the streams their fowery margin kiss
And II ata haav
