The Daily Mail.-A short time since we
published a paragraph stating that Capt. Glover,
the contractor, had made all preparations, and
that he would have the Daily Mail commenced
between New Orleans and Bayou Sara about
the LIST of July, A few days since the Clips,
stopped bringing the mails on Monday and
Thursday, and we supposed that Capt. Glover's
Daily Mail was then about to commence. But
there is no signs of such an event, and there is
no knowing if there ever will be. We got a
mail last Sunday from below, one on Tuesday,
and presume we will have another to-day. If
there is no use trying for a daily mail, we pre-
fer, for the interest of our paper, that the mail
days be again changed to Mondays and Thurs
days.

Russia and Turkey.-Telegraphic dispatches
to the P~icayune of Wednesday evening, gives
the following interesting and important items
relative to Russia and Turkey, which, it seems
are about to "open the ball" in Europe:
Baron Bruck has arrived at Constantinople
from Austria.
The rumored mediation of the latter powe,
consists in an endeavor TO induce Turkey Ito
yield to the demands ofRussia. Other accounts
deny this statement.
It is believed that the Russians have posi-.
lively entered the Turkish provinces Of the
Danube.
The whole Turkish squadron on the Black
Sea is armed for war.
It is reported that in consequence of the re.
fusal Of the Sultan to accept the ultimatum OF
the Czar, the Russian general has received or.
ders to cross the Pruth and commence hostili
ties.
The Russian forces were expected to ente,
Jassy on the 10th ult.
Three ships-of.war have been sent to pro-
tect the Greek subjects in the Levant in case
of hostilities.
The "Bulletin" ofParis says the French Go.
vernment has called on Russia for an imme-
diate answer to the question whether she in.
tends war or peace. In either case France will
be ready for all events. This, says the Bulle.
tin, is the French ultimatum.

Abstract Of the 18th Census.-We are under
obligations to the Superintendent, ]. B. D. De
Bow, for a neat volume by this title, contain

make a quarto volume of about 1000 pages,
and will be completed and published before the
meeting of Congress.
Q. The statistics of Manufactures of Mortal.
iy ETC., have not been ordered to be printed, in
consequence of being defective, and would have
made another volume of the same size.
8. A great deal of valuable matter will re-
main among the unpublished material of the
Census, mixed up with much that cannot be
relied upon.
q. The Office is always happy to receive any
views or suggestions in relation to the matters

Sugar and Molasses Speculations.-As a
matter of some interest to our planters we clip
the following from the ST. Louis Evening News
of the 2sth ult:
Dealers in these articles made a"wide miss"
this year, and ifa ma ority who purchased large
ly wind up at the close Of the season with bal
anced, accounts they may deem themselves for
tunate. The difficulty has been this The crop
was an increased one, and not knowing pre-
cisely to what extent, dealers bought two hea-
Willy at an early day, at what was then consid-
cred low figures. The stock almost from the
beginning was large, and still continues So
At no time has there been anything like a scar
city of either, but receipts have been constant
and steady, with less animation and q greater
uniformity in prices than we remember to have
ever noticed of a season before. Sugars OPEN
ed at about 81 to DC, and these figures are
the quoted ruling rates at present. Molasses
has declined, and is now fully as low or lower
than it was at the opening of the season. We
have no means Of ascertaining the precise
amount of either in store, but we are assured
that it is sufficient for at least two months,
should not another hogshead or barrel arrive.

A Model Parish--By examining the mum
bers for some time back, of both the papers
published in this parish, it will be seen that,
with one or two trifing exceptions, there have
been no sherif's sales published. This indi.
Gates not only a very peaceable and harmoni.
GUS condition Of society here, but it Is a proof
Of the honesty and responsibility of the PEG.
pie generally with regard to their pecuniary af.
fairs, as well as their good management of the
same. 1t is a sure sign, that wherever sheriff
sales are scarce, the people are prosperous
Although it is very much against our interest
yet it 10 to be hoped, for the good of the PEG.
pie, that such a state of affairs will long con.
tinue in lberville.

ULord John Russell, in his last published
work, The Memorials and Correspondence of
Charles James Foe, pays the following tribute
to the immortal Washington:
"The success of America was owing, next
to the errors of her adversaries, to the conduct
and character of Gen. Washington. In him
were united the purity of the most disinterest.
ed patriotism with all the energy of the most
stirring ambition; the utmost reluctance to en-.
gage in the contest, with tho frmest will new
er to abandon it when begun; the most intre.
pid devotion of his life and his fame in hazard.
Gus attacks, with the calmest judgement in all
matters political and military. The dissensions
of Congress, the envy of rivals, the apathy of
his troops, the calumnies of his enemies, Meth.
er excited him to rashness, nor stopped him
in his career"

Our Cattle.

Through the politeness of J. B. STEEL, we
have received from the publishers the following
works lately issued from the press:
ElectrO-PhysiOlOgy, a Scientific and
Popular Treatise on the Prevention, Causes
and Cure of Diseases; or Electricity as {
Curative Agent, by ORG. HUFF. New York
D. APPLETON & Co., 200 Broadway.
A contemporary says of this work: "The
physiological portion of this book is written
with remarkable clearness and precision. Any
person may easily learn from it the nature and
structure of the "house in which he lives" and
how wonderfully provision has been made in
the human frame for each of its movements and
functions. The work is one Of the most inte'
resting we have ever read, among the multitude
of elementary t~reatises on physiology which
have been recently called forth by the popular
interest in the subject"
Light and Shade, or the Young Artist
aTale, by ANNA HARRIET DRURY; N. York
D. APPLETON & Co., 200 Broadway.
We cannot speak as to the interest which this
novel will give to the mind of the reader. 1t
appears, however, to be we'll written, and the
style easy and chaste.
Jannes's Diary, a Tale of the Panic of
ls45, &C., by WIN. M. THAcKERAY; New
York, D. APPLETON & Co. 200 Broadway.
Mr.. James is one of THAcKERAY's best char.
~acters, and the reader, if he has the blues, will
have them no longer, after p~erusing q few pa
ges of this work.

Another Boat for The Plaquemine and Cross
Tste Traae.-We are pleased to notice the ar
rival in our bayou of the steamer Banner, own
ed by Mr.. VIM. SAvoRY, in conjunction We be-
lieve with Capt. E. E. SHORT. She seems to
be a very appropriate little boat for the trade,
and when fitted up with that order and neat"
ness-above and below, within and without
which may be anticipated from the capable and
industrious gentlemen who have charge of her,
the Banner will not only be safe and comfor-
table in every particular, but give proof of her
reputation as one of the 'fast 'uns," We un.
derstand that both boat and officers have hon
orabIy passed the examination instituted by a
late act of Congress, for the better preserya-
ton of the lives of passengers. Success to
the Banner and her owners.

WORMS! WORMS!

rThere is no disease so common among chill
dren, and yet none which SO frequently battles the
skill of the physician as worms. They are high
ly detrimental to the constitution; and their pres
ence should be carefully guarded against by par
ents. On the first manifestation of symptons, every
means should be used to expel them promptly and
thoroughly. MLane's Virmifuge is well estab-
lished as the most certain, safe and speedy reme-
dy ever offered for this troublesome and danger
Gus malady; and all who have the management of
children should keep this invaluable medicine at
hand. In addition to its perfect safety, it never
fails to produce the desired effect.

Nouel and Great hvention.-A correspon.
dent, says the Boston Bee, sends the following
account of a safety car, the result of his inge.
nuity, which is published for the approval of
the public:
"The seats on which the passengers sit are to
rest on pistons, which pistons are to play into
cylinders, which cylinders are to be charged
with gunpowder, which gunpowder is to be
touched off with percussion caps and hammers,
which caps and hammers are to be all united
BY rods, which rods are to be connected to the
engine and cars, that whenever any collision.
obstacle. switch, drawbridge occurs, or when.
ever the engineer, or fireman, or conductor shall
see tit, all the aforesaid pistons may be discharg.
ed at once, firing up the passengers high and
dry into the air, through the top of the cars,
instead of being drowned or dashed to pieces
in them.
alt will be necessary that the top of the car
instead of being covered with boards, should
be covered with thin cloth or canvas, through
which any human head of ordinary thickness,
or skull, will penetrate with perfect ease. /
would also suggest, as a further Improvement
that a parachute be placed directly over the head
OF every passenger, so that, in being fred up
through the top into the atmosphere, he will
find himself provided with one of those conye-
nient little articles, used by all balloonists, for
descending to the ground from any height at
pleasure.
