On Christmas morning Mrs. Eliza

A Coon war To cEr RID or DOG
eEalEs.-There IS law, inAieting: a
heavy penalty on persons engaged lin
traffic with negroes. the principal me-
dunn id exchange being common wbis-
key. Very recently Mr.. Benjamin
Debleanx, Of Plaqueuhine, complained
on an old offender in this line, who
was brodghtup and fined heavily. The
informers portion Of the fine assessed
was very. generously donated to tue
Female Orphan Asylum Of Baton
Rouge, and the Ladies have acknowl-
edged the receipt of the amount, in
very appropriate terms. If Mr. De.
'bleauxs example were followed, the
miserable low doggeries, that hang on
the suburbs of all Southern towns,
would very soon be exterminated. :

a. % The Bayou Sara Ledger says:
small box containing a new born
child, was found floating in tie river
opposite that place, few days ago.
The child seemed from appearance to
have been in the water but a few
hours. ACoroner's Jury was held
and measures have been resorsed to,
to discover the infptiside. Such
crime is rare in the land, and a check
should be at once put to it, BY the
rigid enforcement Of the Law. -s g,fss
