BAroS RoueE, Feb, "a, 1854.
This day being devoted to the consideration
of private bills in the House, there was nothing
Of Importance disposed Of
In the Senate the resolution reserving from
sale the swamp lands on the Bayou Latourche
for a limited period, was taken up and passed
The object of this bill is to suspend the sale
until certain improvements, which are now in
contemplation. shall have been completed, by
which their value will be much enhanced and
to prevent them from being absorbed entirely
by spectators. The act to aid the colonization
OF the free people in this State was taken up and
gave rise to Il long and animated discussion.
This bill imposes a tax Of one dollar per head
upon each free person of color in this State, to
be paid annually, for the purpose of carrying
out the provisions of this act. And in default of
payment, the Collector shall institute legal pro-
ceedlngs against such tax payer, and in the alb
sence of property, it shall be lawful for him to
arrest the person of such delinquent and hire
him out at public auction or to such person or
persons as will advance the amount of said tax
and costs.
This feature of the bill produced much ex-
cltement, as it was considered as arbitrary in
its naturesand contrary to the spirit of our in.
situations The bill was finally laid upon the
table; after which the Senate adjourned. G..
BATON ROUGE, Feb 25.--The Senate met and
adjourned to Monday without transacting any
business In the House report was made by

HAVANA MARKE TS.

CHARLESTON, Feb 25.-The steamer Isabel
has arrived here, with dates from Havana to the
22i inst. Her adyices embrace the interesting
intelligence that Mr.. Robertson, the acting
Consul at Havana, has been successful in his
exertions to obtain the release Of the American
sailors which have been SO long imprisoned on
charge of connection with the slave trade. Tho
posal.
1t was reported at Havana that an insurrec-
ton among the negroes had taken place at
the eastward of Cardenas, and an unexpected
change of troops had been made at Puerto
Principe. All was quiet in Havana
The French Fleet had not yet made its ap-
pearance.
The Sugar market was dull at Havana, owing
to the want of shipping Freight to England
was five guineas per hogshead. Flour was
scarce. Rice and Lard were improving. Box
shocks were wanted very badly.

Mardi Gras.

To-day is the beginning of Carnival--the
commencement Of sport, the inauguration of fun,
| jollity, merriment--
and laughter holding both his sdesn
| For week succeeding, the amusements OIL
/ the city will be redoubled, and all classes and
both sexes will indulge in becoming gratifca-
tions and amusement. The city is to ring with
a louder susurrum than during any previous
period of the season. Balls abound, theatres
are open in their most attractive form, and
/ concerts will doubtless be crowded. The late
sorroWful calamity at the French theatre has
closed opera to us for the present But an
/ omission of one out of so many means of pleas
ure, will be hardly noticed by the thousands
who are seeking how to amuse themselves
The week following Mardi Gras is notable in
New 0rleans-perhaps more 50 than in any
| other city of this country. Its rites and rights
are religiously observed from one extreme Of
the place to another, and all orders, and ma
tons, and sects, and sections, and sexes seek to
| do 1t homage. We anticipate even larger no.
tice the present year than on those previous.
| The season is later, and there are many here
| who have generally visited us during the holi
| days and left before now There are more
means of amusement than usual and greater
preparations for the dawning merriment of the
new year. We are blessed with pleasant wea-
Their and the prospect of its continuance. The
great ball at the Odd Fellows Hall will doubt
less be the most notable affair of the day and
the most crowded of all the amusements. There
is, however, fancy and mask ball at Union
Hall splendid bill at the St. Charles Theatre:
an attractive presentation at Placide's Varie,
ties, and numerous other means of diversion
suited to the day and occasion.
We trust that Mardi Gras NAV be a dav
memorable to many on account of It's pleasures,
and that the week ensuing may be freighted
with all sorts of pleasure and qualification
----E====zsez--
GRAND BALL AT THE ST.. LouIs HOTEL A
very magnificent ball was given last evening at
the st, Louis Hotel, attended by the elite and
fashion OF the city. The large rooms Of the no.
tel were thrown open and dancing aud masking,
fun and merrlment reigned temporarily Su-
preme. Every thing was attended to which could
IN the least contribute to the pleasure of the oc
casion. We shall endeavor to give a full sketch
tomorrow morning,
DAN RIGEs. We are gratifed to see the
manner in which Dan Riee's efforts to please
the public are appreciated and rewarded He
has had fuller houses for few nights past than
any other amusement in the city and doubtless
will continue to have during the engagement of
Madame Tournaire, who is certainly the hand
soonest woman ami most daring rider of the day
In short time new copy of :. Uncle Toms
Cabin will be produced, in which Dan himself
plays Uncle Tom. If his acting doesn't draw the
children and eolored folks we arc at a loss to
know what will.
