SELLING HoRsE.-A good clergyman wishing to
be rid of his horse and try for better one directed
his old negro to sell his beast for what he would
fetch, or to exchange him for another adding at the
same time anxious caution not to deceive the pur-
chaser, and even enumerang the faults OF the animal
lest one should be overlooked.
Remember, Pompey, he has four faults
90 yes massa, l take care"
Pompey, jogging along the road and coming over
the list to himself, as the old lady did her luggage
=" Big box, little box, band box bundle' was
overtaken by q man on horseback who entered
into conversation and among other topics made some
inquiries about the horse.
Pompey told his story, said that his master had
charged him to tell the horses faults to the purcha-
ser without reservation.
"WeII, what are they?" said the stranger, who
had mind for swap.
Dere is four massa" said Pompey, land | re.
member 'em all very well just now, butt
"Well, tell me those you do remember" said the
other.
We'll, sah, one is dat de horse is white, and the
white hairs get on massa's coat, and dat don't look
well for a clergyman.
And the next ~
"Why, when he comes to a brook he will put his
nose down and blow in the water, and massa don't
like dat
"What next?"
/" ] can't any how remember de oders said Pom
pey, peerng up into the clouds with one eye, re-
fleCtingly.
The stranger concluded to strike bargain and ex
change his own horse, which had not quite so gentee
air the parSons for this nearly uneXceptiouable
animal. 1t was not long before the clerical steed
stumbled and threw his rider into ditch. Picking
himself up as well as he could, he examined his new
purchase a little more closely, and discovered that
the horse was entirely blind
Finding Pompey again without much difficulty, his
wrath burst forth in a torrent of reproaches
" You black rascal what does this mean? Thi
horse is broken-kneed and as blind mole !"
go, yes, massa," said Pompey blandly, " dem!
de oder two faults dat couldn't remember!'

In the Baton Rouge Sugar Planter Of the 2sd we
find the following aG~ ~&& .@ - 81
A gale visited MS on Saturday night accompanied
by violent rain which did some damage in the way
Of tearing down fences and trees but as far IS we
could learn hurt no one one in life limb. The old
sugar house on the plantation Of Col. Williams was
blown down. The rain though not absolutely wanted
was nevertheless very beneficial but what is more
singular is the cold weather that has set IN since the
rain. We had good fire kept up all day Monday,
in cur office.
The Monnt Lebanon Baptist Of the 14th says:
The weather has been delightfulfor the last week

good order for the plow and vegetation springng on
rapidly. Even the trees are putting green coat
again, and in few days will have full summer

The Alexandra Democrat of the 10th says: sg =
| The warm sunshine of last week, tempered by
| genial showers, shed most benign influence, and
smoothed the lines Of care upon our planters broHs
But the cold north wind of the last day two send
ing the mercury down to SO degrees is inducing the
worst apprehensions.

Falls on Sunday readily enough-there is little water,

The Concordia Intelligencer Of Friday last says:
Heavy thunder storms on Saturday and Sunday last

letter to friend, in which the following paragraph
appears:
Mr.. Wray has been here and passed several days

We have been informed that very sad affair re-
sultng in the death of one man, took place in the
Mississippi Bottom, few miles below Liberty, III. It
appears that there some kind of gathering and
two of the crowd were fighting. man by the name
of Steele sitting upon his horse quietly watching
the progress of the fighting. Another man by the
name of Vanover, came riding up, and seeing what
was going on, followed hurrah!' y for one of the
fighting men, At this Steele took offense, and when
the shout repeated he deliberately raised his gun
which he had lying before him on the saddle, and
fired, the ball passing through the body of Vanover
just below the heart, and cutting off the little finger
of his daughter, who was on the horse behind him.
Steele dsmounted, and with others. examined the
wound, which pronounced mortal Steele fled,
and at last accounts had not been apprehended.

THE AMERICAN PARTY IN LOUISIANA Every
mail brings an account of the meeting in some
parish of those opposed to the reigning dynasty in
Louisiana. We again caution friends let no side
outside issues be brought. Hold our opponents to
their acts the two past winters. Their acts, or at
least that portion published are before the people
upon those let them be judged. We already hear the
cry, I" Let us give Mr.. Buchanan our undivided sup
port in the South" We have no quarrel with Mr..
Buchanan. As yet he has. done nothing, save the
appointment of his special friends to office, and for
this we have no cause of complaint. Let the two
wings of the party in Louisiana fight the spoils,
have no interest in them. Ours is the agree
able duty of rescung the State government from
those who have made their position as legislators
place for private speculation, and venting private and
party malignty Ask why the necessity forced upon
the State to borrow 100000 at one session, when
the government was placed in their hands, with a
redundant treasury? What effort has been made to
carry ont the provisions of the constitution requiring
a Board of Public Works to be organized? What has
become of the vast fund appropriated to evees and
drainage? Where are the officers under whose charge
it was placed How many of them have been cut o
Louisiana on private business, and how many quail
fed for the places they hold Who elected three
Senators and greater number of members of the
House! The list of crimes and offenses grows fear
fully great as we pursue the subject Let us make
opponents answer them all at the bar of public
opinion. [Baton Rouge Gazette, oath
