. The health of Calcasieu will compare favor
ably with the most salubrious regions. 1t is
intersccted by innumerab'e clear and limpid
streams, some Of which are, and many others
may be rendered, navigablc, The River Cal
easieu itself is q noble stream; and Lake
Charles will compare with many of those ba-
sins of water about which so much poetry has
been written. The borders Of this beautiful
Lake, on the bank of the Calcasieu River, has
been selected as the seat Of justice of the Par
ish. But We have no space TO pursue the
subject any further at present, intending to

THE PARISH OF CALCASIEU.

TTIaving had in view, in the establishment OF our
paper, the bringing into notice, by descriptions ana
otherwise, the extensive and beautiful country OIL
Western Louisiana, we begin to-day an article Oh this
Parish.l
If our neighboring Parish-Calcasieu-has
not increased more rapidly in population and
wealth, it is not because she is wanting in nat
ural resources, but because she does not enjoy
the facilities Of communication with the great
market for her staple productions.
f. A glance at the map will show that the
Parish covers q considerable area but the
population is sparse and the country undevel-
oped. The following table will give some idea
of the statistics of the Parish:
