RIVERS AND WEATHER IN THE NORTH WEST. -
From the Harrisburg (Catahoula parish) Independ
ent, of the 9Th inst, we clip the following para
graphs:
The officers of the Bluff City, down last night from
Camden, report an unprecedented rise in the upper
Ouachita, from continuance of heavy rains. Boats
of all classes have an abundance of water to reach
any point desired This will Immediately relieve the
warehouses and landings above us, which have for
long time been overstocked withup freights detained
in consequence of not being able to reach their ports
of destination. Many places, we regret to learn, are
in imminent danger of overflow. At this point the
river has risen several feet since last publication
and is continuing to rise
An abundance of rain having fallen throughout the
parish during the week just passed, and warm wea
ther setting in gives rapid start to every species of
vegetation. Both and cotton we are told already
begins to have promising appearance, and with ia
voable weather from this the planters will soon have
their crops thoroughly under way.

Later from Texas,

Notwithstanding the severe northers, frosts and
heavy rains in Texas during the early part of the

Galveston Herald thinks that if the remainder OF the

of wheat will be raised in the wheat growing dis

THE TERRITORY OF New MExIoo.-The Commits
soner of Indian Affairs has received letter from D.
Merriwether, Governor and Superintendent of Indian
Affairs in New Mexico, in which he states that the re-
ports made by the Indian agents, disclose gloomy
state of affairs in that Territory. The cause of the
difficulties which exist between the settlers and the
Indians, is the murder of Cosais and another Apache
during the last winter, and the murder of Utah and
his wife in February last by the citizens The Governor
was inclined to the opinion that but little effort had
been made to arrest the murderers in either case He
did not think there was much danger of the people
taking vengeance in their hands for the loss of
the cattle stolen to pay for the death OF two Utah
Indians as stated by one of the Indian agents.
He had returned from the Nevajo country on the
2lst ult, after an absence of twenty-five days from
the superintendency. These Indians profess friend
ship and assured him that they would not ATTEMPT to
take vengeance for the boy killed by the Mexcans,
and he had faith in their promises. The Indians told
him that the dpradatons charged against them were
committed by few bad men, who had left the tribe
long SINCE and that whenever troops were ready
TO make war upon them, they would furnish guides
point out where these renegades were.

A FUNNY MIsTAKE-4 Quaker at a "Nigger'
Shop.-At Buffalo, a few days ago, Hon. Henry
Wilson, u S. Senator from Massachusetts, was an
nounced to lecture at American Hall (by mistake)
instead Of Kremlin Hail. before the antislavery peo
pie. Negro Minstrels were performing at American
Hall, and their popularity and that of Mr.. Wilson
combined to pack the house. The Republic says the
mistake was not discovered until the "opening
chorus, when many prominent lecture-goers found in
the place of an elaborate lecture on Labor that
they were voluntarily attending "negro perform
ance." Their misfortune did not end here, for the
hall was so crowded it was impossible to recede. One
old Quaker who with his broad brim, sauntered
slowly in and took prominent seat appeared to he
terribly scandalized when he first discovered the
awful mistake he had made, but he had no time to
repent of it, for before he could make an effort to
depart, the broad brim quiverng. and his sides
shaking like an agtated plate of jelly at the wttcisms
and burlesques he was witnessing.

AMERICAN national CoNyEsr1oS.-speaking of

AMERICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION of
the assembling of this body in June next the Frank
lin (St. Nary Journal, of the 7th inst remarks:
The 22d of June. 1867, has been set apart as the
day for the assembling Of the National Convention Of
the American party. No positive steps have as vet
been taken to send delegates from this State to rep
resent us in that body. The American State Conyen
ton of this State meets in Baton Rouge on the second
Monday in June, being the sth day of the month"; If
that time, they will have sufficient leisure to 90 to
Louisville the place of meeting. We would respect.
fully call the attention of those delegated from this
parish to the State Convention to the Importance Of
seeing that delegates are appointed by said Conyen
ton to the National Assembly. The present is one of
American party Certain action is to be taken Which
renders absolutely necessary that every State should
be iuily and fairly represented. The star of Amer
canism IS In the ascendant, and the truthful princ
pies OF The party must meet with the sanction of the
people. Truth crushed to earth will rise again.
and though temporary defeat may overcome u.s. the
sacredness and justness of our cause will eventually
recommend it to the people for their adoption.

How FIRES ARE ExrNGUIsHED IN CINCINNATI.
The Cincinnati Enquirer states that the loss in that
city by fire, over insurance. during the last year,
amounted to but 26,626, and that loss was by the
destruction of single edifce, the Peoples theater
The Enquirer thus describes the manner in which a
fire is managed in CINCINNATI
The alarm is sounded and the localtyof the fire
! indicated Immediately the horses are hitched by
wellpaid and trustworthy men, who never sleep at
their posts and the seven huge, smoking, numbering
but easily managed machines tear through our Streets
creating, like comets, steam they CO. and marking
their courses by "a fiery stream. Arrived near the
scene of the fire, the engines posted, probably
several squares off, exactly over the huge cisterns
constructed at the of all the Streets and with
one or two men to watch the engine and keep up the
fires-the great hoses attached and dragged off
to the fire. where they are managed and the water
played by two or three men.
A striking popularity at Cincinnati fire is that
the power which propels the water is invisible the
engines being distance off, and the pipeholders
never crowded impeded in their operations. Thus
it is that less than respectable rivulets are
brought to bear at time upon blaze, and it must
be terrible one, and very far gone indeed if it can
stand up under such cataract There is no tumult,
disorder, confusion uproar excitement of any
sort during this operation, which is usually brief
one.
The whole annual expense of this efficient fire de-
partment is set down at $S4 900.
