with her since. He contempates going on whaling
voyage to be absent three years. when he intends to
return and claim his wife. The parents of the young
LADY, we learn, design procuring divorce, if possible,

arraigned for violation of the State law, which pro.

fine. The subject has created much excitement

wEATHER AND CRoPs.-The ST. Helena Imperial
= Of Saturday last says:
For the past fortnight the weather has been very
warm, with an occasional refreshing shower and
his prospecting fields. But on Thursday afternoon
last quite hurricane passed over this section of
country, doing considerable damage in the way Of
blowing down the crops, fences and trees. In the
damage to the crops was considerable, and we would
not be surprised to hear the same report from other
quarters as the worst Of it did not pass this mme-
diate vicinity. #l4
The Lake Providence Herald Of Saturday last has
the following: ..
Real summer weather is now upon us. The range
of the thermometer for the past four days, has been
partial Of late are much needed for the crops in some
portions Of the parish. Where they have fallen in
abundance, the cotton has been made to suffer from
the rust this is principally along the river. As to
ing season. As usual, when our days are hot and
parched, we have a cooling temperature at night,
which besides being very pleasant is conducive to the
healthy advancement Of vegetation generally.
From the Thibodanx Minerva Of Saturday last we
extract the following paragraphs:
We are now at the close of another warm week; the
hottest Of the season. The country still remains ex
tremey healthy. sgai
Juicy peaches and delicious figs are now anything
but scarcity in our streets and market. In for
year have the crops of these avorite fruits been
so abundant as the present. They may be had for a
mere song.
The crop of the Lafourche parishes, is the lar
gest that ever was made, Or will be when matured.
This opinion is universal; none denyit
We have it from the very best authority that, not
withstanding present favorable weather, the cane
crop contrary to the opinions Of those not close of
observation, is making but little, if any progress
The stand is considered good but is sadly backward
as to size: s
Several Of our largest and most experienced plant
er those in whose veraoity we have the most explicit
tie last two weeks has scarcely been perceptble al
though to the eye Of the superficial observer the very
contrary opinion might be entertained. At this
son Of the year in 1853 the cane was in more ad-
vanced state and had already many joints anda con-
