The Grand Jury.-The March term of the
District Court for this Parish, has been in ses-
sion during the past week. The Grand Jury
we understand, have learnt of nothing crimi.
nal as having occurred in the Parish during the
past six months, as evidenced by their making
no presentment. The prosecuting attorney,
Disguised perhaps, returned home in the early
part of the week.
1t is rather difficult to- believe that nothing
has occurred in our Parish within the time mem
toned, deserving the notice of the Grand Jury
if it is really the fact, we live in a blessed COM
munity. According to the manner in which
cases have been disposed of heretofore, we do
not see the necessity Of presentments, nor the
use of the Parish mourning the expenses atten-
dant upon criminal prosecutions. But a "good
time is coming"w we trust-a time when equity,
clear judgment and good hard sense, will pre-
dominate in all suits decided here, of any ma.
ture whatever.

Citizens Bank Bill again Vetoed.-By refe.
renee to our Legislative proceedings, it WILDE
seen that the Governor has again vetoed this
bill, as reproduced by Mr.. BENJAMIN. Gey.
WALKER certainly must have great faith in the
correctness of his views and the infaIlibility of
his wisdom, when he presumes to write his ve-
to a second time to a bill which received but
tho negatives in the Senate, and 81 nays to 81
ayes in the House. We have no doubt that u
constitutional majority will be obtained, and
that His ExceIlency's official negative win be
overruled. Should it, however, prove other
wise, "the reinstatement of the Bank is post
poned, not defeated; a new constitution will
place it out of the Governors power to battle
the wishes of seven-eighths of the community"

STATE OF LOUISIANA.
From the True Delta.l

L. FeHow Citizens:-As one of you, I consider
that the moment has at last arrived for us to
unite and resist the encroachment on our rights
attempted by a class Of individuals, who, for
many years, haze enriched themselves at our
expense, and who, not satisfied with their rich
harvest, have erected themselves insa new
Areopagus, and .aspired to enact the laws that
are hereafter to govern US. The patriotic pa
IRISH OF ST. James, has been the first to unfurl
the flag OF resistance, and declare her determi-
nation to resist this unauthorized assumption
OF power. Several other parishes of the State
have followed the noble example; are they to
remain unsupported in the position they have
assumed, or will those other portions of our
State who Sc interest and industry are similar,
rally to sustain them, and thereby make good
their resistance to the threatened oppression of
a selfconstituted tribunal, a tribunal, of bro.
sRers, who assembling I'M c%onclaye on their
strong hold, the Leyee, determine whether we
are or not to be remunerated for our labor! Are
we to abide by their.decision, are we tamely to
submit to their determination! No, fellowsciti--
.Zens, we must resist, and work out for ourselves
the path We are to follow. What is the cause
OF the f~altering state of our industry! Want
OF union and intercourse between the sugar.
planters of the State, and the fatal habit ensu-
ing therefore of ever considering our crest in
terest, not as that of a large and powerful body,
as that of so many persons wrapped up in
own individuality. Let us no longer be
blind TO the well established fact, that 10 union
their is strength, and let4us then take immedi-
ate stepsto bring about this union.
The first act of aggression has been made,
t will not be the last, let us prepare then
N time, thisis the moment, letzus seizesit.
The depreciation of the great staple of our
Stale, is a warning to you that before long, our,
