The WAR IN THE THIRD.-Our readers must
by this time be aware that certain paper, read
some time since to the Council of the Third NUM-
cipality, entitled the Report of the Finance Com
mittee, has produced some i'll feeling in the Council
and out of it, When we left the Council in session
on Monday evening, there was no prospect of any
thing of consequence coming up, and the omens
were peaceabe. 1t appears, however, that. after
the reporters left, the subject of the Finance Re-
port which was supposed to have been finally dis
posed of by the adoption Of the Report, was again
brought on the table-how does not seem to be
clearly known-and the debate was bordering on
the fierce. Mr.. Solomon was speaking on the re-
susciated topic, when he happened 10 mention
something Mr.. Flanders did not think exactly veri-
table, and he told him in a loud voice, 50 Sir, you
are -" Mr.. Solomons then left his seat and
strobe towards his antagonist, so clearly with the
intention of inhictng summary chastisement, that
several members rushed between them and preven-
ted the purpOsed assault whereupon, our inlor-
mant adds the Council broke up in what is vulgar
ly termed a row

lows The cholera had diminished in intensity, but
at the commencement of the last week it suddenly
broke out anew, and the number of new cases and
deaths increased daily in an alarming manner. As
it was especially among the inferior classes that the
disease made victims, it became rumored that the
noble and the rich, in order TO get rid of the poor
had engaged the physicians to give poisoned medi-
cine TO those attacked. This rumor becoming gen.
rally credited. the inferior class beanie so irritated
that they insuted physicians and all well-dressed
persons in the streets. On Wednes, aV last assem-
blages took place II The Ne1ca Prospect The police
called out the armed force, and the mob constructed
three barricades. At the moment the troops We're
about to commence the attack the Emperor arrived,

them up to the police after which they demolished

THE COTTON CRoP.-The Concordia Intelli-

able character. For some weeks the weather
moderately warm and dry-has been the finest for
contemplating that could have been desired. All
hands have been constantly in the fields. A storm
on the LIST Of November next would not cut oil
much cotton. The stalks look t0erably bare al
ready. This fine picking time and the greater in
dustry of our planters will help many of them to
bring up their crops to an average size yet, who
month ago, feared to think Of counting up at the
close of their weighing.
d. The Louisiana Republican says the weather
has been so remarkably fine for three weeks past,
that the effects of the Storm which it was supposed
had injured the crop almost one-half, will not be
materially felt. The cotton crop in this parish will
not be full one, but from the best information we
have been able to obtain, it will not fall short as
much as One-fOurih whereas soon after the Storm
IN the latter part of August. many said that not
much over a half crop would be realized The
Wet weather in July and August caused many of
the forms to fall, and now there is some deficiency
in the number of voting b0lts At this time how
ever, the amount OF cotton open in the fields is ~
large. perhaps, as was ever seen any one time in
the country, and there is every prospect Of good
weather, so that it will all be saved.
