SONG OF THE RAIN.

Lo the long slender spears how they culver and hash
Where the clouds send their cavalry down.
Rank and file by the million the rain ances dash
Over mountain and river and town
Thick the battle drops fa-but they drip not in blood
The trophy Of war Ii the green fresh bud
Oh, the rain, the plentiful RAIN
The pastures lie baked snd the furrow is bare,
The wells they yawn empty and dry;
But Il rushing Of waters Ia heard in the air,
And rainbow leaps out in the sky;
Hark the heavy drops peltipg the sycamore leaves,
How they wash the wide pavement and sweep from the
caves;
Oh the rain, the plentiful rain 80
See, the weaver throws wide his one swinging pane,
The kind drops dance in on the floor
And his wife brings her owerpots to drink the sweet
rain
On the step by her halfopen door
At the tune on the sky light, far over his head,
Smiles their poor crippled lad on his hospital bed.
Oh, the rain, the plentiful rain
And away, far from men, where high mountains tower
The little green moses rejoice;
And the bud-headed heather mods to the shower,
And the hll-torrents lift up their voice;
And the pools in the hollows mimic the fight
OF the rain, their thousand points dart up In light
oh, the rain, the plentiful rain I.
And deep in the hrwood below, near the plain,
A single thrush pipes full and sweet ~m
How days Of clear shining will come after rain,
Waving meadows and thick growing wheat
So the voice Of Hope sings at our fears,
Or the harvest that springs from great nations tears
Oh, the rain the plentiful RAIN -

PETRIFIED INDIAN. 50 While engaged in ex-
cavating recently upon the Milwaukee and La
Crosse railroad, near Schlesengeryille, Iowa,
the workmen came upon the petrifed remains of
an Indian, and with the remains some singular
relics of olden times. The body was perfect,
not having suffered by decay, His height, at
the present day, would be considered gigantic
measuring seven feet two inches. On his breast
was plate of copper, on which were engraved
numerous hieroglyphics, the meaning of which
can hardly be imagined. But there they are a
record of the past, Could these hieroglYphics
be read. they might, perhaps, unyeil some Of the
mystery which hangs like dark cloud over the
history of the red man. An arrow of conside.
rabie strength and curious construction wos
also found with him, and especially invites the
attention of antiauarians.

THE NAILS. - The mails are becoming too
irregular for our commerce, The Northern
mail, via Mobile, due on Saturday, failed from
beyond Montgomery, Ala. That due on yester-
day failed from beyond Charleston. These. with
many other failures within the past twenty days,
are more than va bargained for.
Will Mr. Postmaster General Campbell turn
his attention from SAM and look after his
mail contractors?

MEETING OF THE KANSAS LEGISLATURE.
The st. Louis Republican has letter from its

Most Of the members were at Pawnes early on
the morning of Monday, the I'd inst, the day Of
their eonvocation by the Governors proclarna-
ton. They were obliged to encamp In wagons
and tents, as no houses were provided for their
accommodation. The legislative hall was not
even completed. 1t was rough barn or ware.

though the carpenters worked at 1t through the
Sabbath day on the LIST inst.
The members desired to hold q caucus for the
purpose Of selecting permanent officers for the
two houses. There was no house in which they
could sit, and they were obliged to resort to a
grove about mile distant and arrange their
preliminaries in its shades.
At u o'clock, NJ, the floor of the capitol was
SO far finished that it could be occupied, and the
two Houses convened at that hour.

LAFouRcHE IrEMs.-We clip the following
items Of intelligence from that excellent paper,
the Thibodaux Minerva, of Saturday last
The weather has become very regular in it's
habits lately. The mornings are hot, sultry
and oppressive; about the middle of the day the
clouds gather over US and weep as though the
flood-gates Of heaven were opened to their full
lest extent; and in the evening we have rene
tition of the roasting and boiling process. OF
course mosquitoes flourish nest luxuriantly
under such state Of affairs, and the specimens
now lowering about our head and heels, and
singing their notes of derison as we yainly at
tempt to annihilate some Of the boldest, are a
caution to gallynippers."

The SUGAR MARKET. --On next Saturday, the
18th inst, there will be q meeting at the Court
House of all those interested in establishing the
sugar market at Algiers, instead of over the
river as at present, We have heard some pretty
strong arguments used on both sides Of the
question. We sincerely hope something NAV be
done to relieve the planters and shippers living
on the line Of the Opelousas Railroad from the
vsxations they have heretofore experienced in
regard to this matter.
PUBLIC Discussion. There will be public
discussion at the Court House in this place, to
commence at IL O'clock to-day, on the platform
and principles of the American party. The
Hon. B. G Thibodsux and Louis Bush, ESQ,
will speak on the occasion. We anticipate an
interesting time.

THE INSECT EPIDEMIC. There is mosquito
and bug epidemic now prevailing awfully with.
in the corporate limits Of the oity of New
Orleans Nothing Of the kind was ever before
known. The Is Oldest inhabitanto has been CON
suited and after carefully calculating his
memoranda and statistics, has arrived at the
conclusion that the like was never before known
in this afflicted settlement. We have a pro-
found yeneration for this ancient individual ;
would take his word under almost any circum-
stances; but, had he not been sound on the bug
\ question, we would have been compelled to have
thrown him overheard in disgust Personal,
positive and physical knowledge, would have
constrained us to such course.
The long spell Of dry weather during the
spring, and even the first Of the summer months,
kept down the mosquitoes and bugs, and we ali
had tine time Of it, But the rains which fol-
lowed, and which now follow almost every day,
have stimulated the mosquito and bug crops to
nnwonted production, to unexampled fertility.
The parallel was never before known Huge,
black bugs, lombard your papers. sebastopol
like, rattle against your oraniums and charge
upon your writing materials, while innumerable
millions of mosquitoes attack you in every direc-
tion---assail ruthlessly your hands, face, ears,
nose and mouth, and very often obscure the
light Of the gas just above you by which you
are writing
~ What is 70 DO done Yellow fever epidemics

We have encountered all, but this mosquito and
bug epidemic is the worst We have ever known,
