Weather and Crops In Louisiana.
From the Terrebonne Ceres, of Saturday last, we

From the Terrebonne Ceres, Of Saturday last, we
extract the following @
The past week has been a sorrowful one to the
planting community. The bright hopes of early and
abundant crops have proved to be ilusve The order
of the seasons seems to be reversed-our spring
coming in February, and our winter in March and
April The crops have been suffering some time for
rain and on Sunday night last the heavens indicated
heavy fall, but the rain very sparingly while
the clouds exhausted themselves by giving us reg
uar hurricane from the north, which continued nearly
all night. In the morning our pavements were covered
with ice, some of which remained till o'clock. Very
little damage was done vegetation account of the
wind but Monday night being calm and clear, an
other freeze ensued producing deplorabe results.
Gardens were ruined, cane very much injured, and
corn so completely destroyed that most oft will have
to be replauted.
The Concordia Intelgencer, of Friday last, says:
On the Davis plantation near Office the cotton is
considerably cut down. but it is supposed that enough
is left together with the good terminating i'll the
ground and not yet come up, to make a good stand.
We hear from Chotard's Lake Place that the corn
has not been spoiled, though considerably injured, by
the frost.
Tuesday and Wednesday were warm sunshny days
with a strong and rather raw South wind, and on
Wednesday evening it became cloudy, and rainy, with
the wind from the north.
The Lafourche Union of Thursday says:
Notwithstanding the hard freeze of Sunday night,
and the subsequent hard FROST agricultural neigh
bors anticipate but ring injury to the growing crops

The Rebellion in China.

The North China Herald says that on Dec. a great
engagement took place between the lmperlaists and
insurgents. 1t seems that Chang. kwo-leang, the
second in command of the imperial troops, was de-
coyed into Kenyung with number of his forces, on
the supposon that the insurgents had left the place
The latter however were only in ambuscade within
the city, whence they came out on hearing that the
imperial forces had entered. They soon oVerpowered
them and drove them back. During the attack the
imperial general received gunshot wound in the
thigh which is said to be rather serious.
The EeufcI.atei Difficulty.
The Independent Beige publishes the terms on
which the King of Prussia agreed to settle the Neuf
chatel question.
The King renounces his rights on this canton con-
dton of reserving the Prussian the title Of
Prince attached to Neufchatel. He requires the
oyment for four years, fthe of his ancient
domain in the canton they amount annually to
100000f, and it is presumed that his majesty claims
them in order to indemnify his Swiss partisans for
their sacrifices his behalf. The King also requires
an amnesty in their favor for all they have done since
lS4S, the maintenance of the municipalities being
incompatible with the new order Of things. The King
consents to them but wishes their charitable
establishments to be preserved. 1t is thought that
Switzerland will raise objections to the title of Prince
of Seuichate

ANTI-SLAvERY EXCITEMENT IN JAMAICA. - The
inhabitants OF Jamaica recently got up a very res
pectable anti.slavery excitement, such Boston
would delight in. The Jamaica planters finding that
they cannot compete with the Cuban planters, attr
butte the cause to the slave trade between Africa and
Cuba whereupon they ask that the Government of
Great Britain shall blockade the Cuban coast that
the African savetrade shall be suppressed. Some of
the Jamaica people think that the Coole system is
quite as bad as the slave trade.
