Thus hopefully and jeyftlly did We
await for the coming winter. We
thought Of the long pleasant iadoef
evenings Of the cheerful FIRE the pleas
ant books and the smiling faces Of
friends. We waited for that solemn
season, when the corn is gathered in
sheaves and the ruddy fruit is placked
from the burdened tree, and the lugar
cane has been turned into sugar, to
fill the farmers we'll stocked cellar.
And also thus inpatiently did We look
forward to the full summer time when

noble river bears US on its generous
bosom, The season are welcome,
each in its turn, and We thank God
that we love them all. Already our
minds eye winders among the sweet
scented May flowers whose rich tints.
touched by the SUMS soft rays speak
Of the wisdom, and power, and GOOD
ness Of him who made them and US

MORE FoLr1.-The legislators Of
Louisiana seem to have sort Of ma
mia to shackle the commerce of the
city of New Orleans as much as pos
sible. They have already imposed
onorous burdens in the shape Of in
spectors' fees, upon all the Cotton, |
Beet. Pork, Sugar, Molasses, Hay, |
Flour, Tobacco, &c, shipped to New
Orleans and now, Mr.. Olney has |
introduced a bill in the Legislature to
create inspectors d, Lumber. The
bill should be amended SO as to create
inspectors of candidates for the Leg
stature. The effect of this hamper
ing Of commerce is visible in the steps
aiken recently ct St. Louis to ship I
hour to New York by railroad, instead
# as heretofore by river via New
Orleans. We hope Louisiana will
,hange her policy Her legislators
'hould endeavor to increase the trade
# New Orleans by cutting off all un- /
necessary burdens upon the produc-
ions of the upper country In
tead Of organizing more Offices for
he benefit Of lazy partizans, let them
york like other honest folks.-Mem-
