Louisiana Sugar Crop.

Extracts from a letter to the editors of
the Journal of Commerce, dated Glen
wood Plantation. Assumption Parish,
La, December 10, 1856:
In a communication to your journal
about this time last year, 1 predicted
that the crop of sugar made in Louisi-
ana for 1855 would be 100000 hhds. 1
missed it only 1000 hhds. I have an
other prediction to put on record as re-
CARDS the present crop, and that is that
it will fall short of 100000 hhds., and
many think below 80,O00l This is quite
a retrograde movement for Louisiana in
in the sweets oflife-from 400, 900 hhds.
in 1853 to perhaps 80 or 100, 900 hhds.
in 1856. The causes of this are difficult
to be explained. Our winter and
spring were unusually wet and cold. con-
spring to kill both stubbIe and plant
cane, Ind almost making worthless the
seed we planted late in the spring. The
planters are generally trying to e'bring
up another year by large paintings, but
the cry of bod seed is already heard in
some localities. To what extent the in
jury has gone, I cannot say. Hereabout

Fire in Lcwisburg.

After our paper had gone to press on
last Wednesday afternoon, the 9TH inst,
news came to US of a very disastrous
FIRE in the above village in this county,
which destroyed nearly a whole block of
the finest buildings in the town. We
learn that the fire originated in a bake
ry, by the emptying of some ashes in a
barrel near the premises. The amount
of property consumed is estimated at
about $4,000, the principal sufferers OF
which, are, Messrs. Mcclure, Snyder and
Miller, very little of which amount was
insured. We are sorry that this thriv-
ing little village has met with such a
back set, but are pretty certain that
those gentlemen are of such material as
will not allow the vacant places to re-
main so long.

DEAD LETTERs.-During the quarter

tiers in the General Postoffice found one
thousand nine hundred which contained
money. The aggregate amount is SILL
275. Through the vigilance of the De-

already been restored to its proper own
ers.- Washington Star, December 81.
Nineteen hundred money letters mis-
sing during the last quarter! What a
world of swearing those missing letters
have made, and nearly all owing to the
writer's themselves. We would not be
surprised ifthere were some among them
belonging to us with remittance for sub
scription from some of our delinquents
at a distance, for which we have been
looking for, for some time.

pa-One of the biggest sp%cculations
of modern times is the Illinois Central
Railroad. Congress granted to the Com
pany for the purpose of aiding it in its
construction, several millions of acres OF
the public domain, out of the sales Of
which, in the first eleven months Of the
year, S4,464,400 were realized-at an
average of SIS per acre. How much
was sod previously we are lot informed,
but the receipts-werc probably treble
that sum-. The Company still have one
million of acres on hand for which they
demand S25 per acre, and before it is
half disposed they will doubtless ad-
vance to $50 per acre and get the sum
of thirty or forty millions more. The
whole cost of the road was notmore than
twenty millions of dollars, and this car
poration has received from Congress a
bounty for its construction out of which
they realize fifty and possibly sixtym mill
ions of dollars.
