of this excellent institution (held at Jackson

we notice the name of Mr.. E. Elan, son
of our distinguished fellow citizen, James n.

performance reflected the highest honor both
on himself and the school Of which he was a

Human NatureOne of the most striking
instances of the extremes in the nature Of man,

Who Is HE We find the following para
graph in . communication to the Picayune.-
The writer does not date his letter or give his
locality, but we judge it is somewhere at the
North. One Of our subscribers, named s.,
is in that region at present. Wonder if it is
him:
Another interesting group Is the family Of
Mr.. s., Of Bayou Crosse Tete. His plan
.tation is inundated; he can raise no crop, and
he does not know how to steal Uncle Sans
timber as many of his neighbors do, and he
has wisely determined to try to throw off his
cares ard troubles. His wife was formerly
an heiress well known on Camp street, whose
personal attractions and bland manners called
around her many admires. She and her moth
er are now keptfully occupied in watching the
movements Of her first born, a bright and in
telligent little fellow just learning to I'M, and
who seems to possess the faculty Of being ev-
erywhere at once, laughing, vital and mischev-
Gus, he requires the attention Of half a dozen
persons to take care Of him.

Distinguished Foreigners in the United States.
1t is stated in private letters written by Ger
mans in the United States to their friends in
Germany, that Americans do mo- sympathise
with the political refugees who have recently
settled amongst them, and that the exifes are
compelled to descend to employments far be-
meath their former positions in Europe. For
instance, it is stated that Blenker and Lifts are
working On a farm; Aunsche is in poverty in
Wisconsin; Metternich paints sign boards for
shops; the Hexamers. have opened a public
house in New York; KaR hawks religious books
and tracts; DR.. Elder. a Berlin laera, is in the
service Of a baker; Frobel, colleague of Blum,
writes letters from New Yorktothe Berlin Ma
tional, and ~has>spened an agency business
Now, the above fstaken from just such a pa
per as our readers mighf~haye expected 70 see
it ina Democratic sheet, and without any
comments from the editor. When a man gets
'down in the world, no matter what his former
position in life, or where he was born, his going
to work and earning an honest living, is just
cause of commentator, not sympathy. This

IMPROVEMENT IN SUGAR REFIsING-.-Ac-
cording to a statement in the London Morning

ment b55s taken place in the manufacture of SUI

By means of the now well known patent for
diving, by centrifugal force, and the aid OF a
few simple adjuncts, sugar which took from
three to five weeks to refine, is now done 10 as
MANY minutes. Incredible as this may seem,
the whole process, and the result here stated,
has been witnessed by our informant, at the
sugar-houses Of Messrs. Finzel & Son, at Bris-
ton. Moreover, sugars altogether unsaleable
in our markets, were converted in a few min
utes into an article worth som 36s per cWt.

The CUBA ExPED1TIoN.-Some time ago
the National I~nte|ligencer, in the course of an

Wheat, they were compelled to change their

We have received a letter from Mr.. Wheat

pointedly denying the truth of this statement.
He says .athe captain of the Susan Loud was

vindicate the enterprise. itself and the purity

No. Editor-I take the liberty Of selecting
for your paper, (and request its publication,l
the following extract from one of Dow jr'S
I Patent Sermons, which contains more ruth
than poetry:
zone of the greatest obstacles to the spread
of our holy religion, is the tenacity with which
| church members uphold and defend the con-
duct of each other, be it right or wrong. Let
a man but join the church, and it would seem
! that he is at once incapable of misdemeanors
in the eyes of his brethren. Indeed, they use
every means to advance his interests, though
he may be engaged in a pursuit unlicensed by
the laws of the land, He may be found re-
failing ardent spirits, contrary to law-or COM
hitting some Illicit act on the Sabbath day, in
double violation OF the laws of both God and
manor he may openly keep house Of re-
freshment for the promiscuous accommodation
of both the white and colored population, and
thus outrage the rules of society, law and de-
cency, and still, such transgressor would indu-
bitably be upheld by his church brethren. My
dear young friends, and my dear old ones, l
speak the word Of truth, cut whom it may
Truth is my text to-day. This is not the germ
Of our principles, for it is holy; but such are
the actions Of hypoerites, who should not be
admitted into our society; they are intruders,
who only put on the livery Of Heaven to
serve the devil" Let us bring up our church
members and Judge them by the standard of
onr pure principles, and not degrade our prin-
ciples to the standard of such mems actions
Let us ferret out all such interlopers, and drive
them from our affairs, as Lucifer was driven
from a sphere which he contaminated, and the
world will be bound to acknowledge the purity
and Goodness of our religion. So mote it be-

THE WEATHER.-After a period Of dry and
safffoeating weather, we were treated to a de-
jightful shower on last Thursday afternoon
switch must have a very beneficial effect upon
the cane crop, for we understand it had com.
menced to look yellow and parched up, particu-
'arly those fields which had been lately plough
ed. We trust that We will not have again this
gear another period Of such extraordinary hot
weather.
