borne by our party ID the procession, the
succession Of cheers and songs and music
alternately from the boat and the shore, the
whizzins of rockets, the hoarse whistle OF
the steamer, are amongst the things that
will never be forgotten by those who wit
messed them.
The return home was one continual
scene of merriment, and rejoicing, singing,
dancing and music were kept up without
intermission till the time we reached
Baton Rouge at the "dawning of the day."
This trip will long be remembered with
pleasure by those who enjoyed it, as one
without single incident or misfortune to
mar their happiness. Each man endeav-
ored to contribute to the pleasure of his
fellows. and in his endeavors was highly
successful Yours ****

UAt the inaugural meeting of the
Public Reform Association recently
held in New Orleans we see it stated
by our talented fellow-citizen the Rev.
). Harmon, chat the press and
the pulpit are muzzled on the subject
at intemperance. "This is in the style
and tone Of sweeping invective with
which that gentleman lashes all who
oppose ''fo rceable means" as the best
permanent remedy for the evils of in
temperance. We fear that the good
cause is not much benefited by such
argument. With regard to the charge
against the Pulpit and the Press, we
leave those who are not biased by pre-
JUDGE to Judge of its truthfulness,

ELECTRIC TINE BALL-Accounts from
England state that an electric time ball is
to be put up on prominent spot on South
Foreland Point, near Dover, which will act
simultaneously with the electric clocks at
the Greenwich Observatory. The falling of
this ball, and the simultaneous firing Of a
gun OF electricity, will enable all vessels
within ten miles, and those in the downs,
to regulate their chronometer to a second.

"FATTEN ALL YOUR Hoes" The
following paragraph, which we copy
from the Edgeield Is. CO. Advertiser
is equally applicable to the planters of
Louisiana:
Our caption is piece of advice we
give to our readers, with the under
standing, of course, that hogs" don't
mean little pigs, or even "landpikes. )"
We intend to designate any swine that
will weigh eighty pounds. poor And
we repeat, let all such be fattened be-
fore hog-killing time rolls around
Because every farmer, nearly, has an
abundance of corn, and we feel assured
it will pay him better by being put
into hog meat than in any possible way
TO convincs our agricultural friends of
the soundness of our advice, We will
tell them what we know to be the truth
Pork is now selling in Kentucky at
FIVE cents gross, and it is altogether i'm
probable that it will be offered in this
latitude at any thing under 6 IA cent,
during the coming season. Therefore,
the more of your own meat you fatten,
the less heavy viii be the draw upon
your cotton money and another sea-
son pork may be cheaper A word to
the wise ought to suffice.
