A correspondent of the Houma Uerrebonne parish)
Ceres writes a. follows:
The Americans Of this parish, unwilling that the
election In November shall 60 by default, and in
spired with the full confidence that straightout rep
resentatve of the principles Of the American Party
In their original purity may, by welIconcerted
movement, be elected, have thoroughly reorganized
our forces and now appeal to the "good and true u
men throughout the district TO rally once more to the
rescue, and unite with us in the movement which we
have initiated with view to the selection Of candi-
date in opposition TO the Hon. Miles TAYLOR,
Let US then unfurl our tattered banner to the
breeze lift the slogan Of war, and bear down upon
the broken forces Of q demoralzed majority. Vic.
tory will surely crown our efforts. Never was q
time more propitious for success. Miles Taylor is
not popular either with his party among the peo-
pie. We raise the Macedonian shout to our brethren
throughout the district, and bid them " come over
and help u.s." Nothing but our supine indifference
or the most inexcusabe cowardice can prevent us
from achieving complete victory. We earnestly in.
woke the cooperation Of our sister parishes in this
matter. Let the delegates be appointed from every
parish in the district, and unite with those elected
from this parish, in Convention at New Orleans
That noble city is still true steel TO the cause her
fidelity to which has brought calumny and uncivil
name upon her. Let the country parishes meet the
men Of New Orleans, and SO "good and true =
American be nominated for Congress, his election il
as certain as the rising Of the sun.

Oh how the ugly blots in our character stand out.
"Well" said his mother, !" there is perfect pat

love to know him." "The Son of Cod answered
she "who did no sin, neither was guile found in his
mouth, who left example that we should follow
his steps" Oh, children, God knew you would need

CAUSES OF SUDDEN DEATH. = DR.. Hall, in his
Journal of Health, says that very few of the sudden
deaths which are said to arise from diseases of the
heart do really arise from that cause. To ascertain
the real origin Of sudden deaths, the Doctor says
the experiment has been tried in Europe and report
ed to scientific congress held at strasburgh Sixty
six cases Of sudden death were made the subjects OF
thorough post norton examination In these
cases. only two were found whs died from diseases OF
the heart. Nine out of the sixtysix died from apo
plexy, while there fortysx cases of congestion
Of the lungs that is the lungs were so full of blood
they could not work, there not being room enough
for sufficient quantity of air to enter to support
life.
The Doctor goes on to enumerate the causes that
may produce congestion of the lungs. They are,
cold feet, tight shoes tight clothing, costive bowels
sitting still until chilled through after being warmed
by labor or rapid walk going too suddenly from
close, heated into the cold air. especially after
speaking and sudden Oppressive news operating on
the blood. These causes of sudden deaths being
known, an avoidance of them may serve to lengthen
our valuable lives which would otherwise be lost
under the verdict of heart complaint That disease is
supposed to be inevitable and neurable, hence men
may not take the pains they would to avoid sudden
death, if they knew it lay in their power.

STICKING TO ONE's R1GHTs.-" How is it, John,
that you bring the wagon home in such a condi-
ton ~
~ broke it in driving over stump"
"Where?
"Back in the woods half mile or So"
But why did you run against the stump
Couldn't you see how to drive straight 2"
al did drive straight, and that is the reason
drove over it. The stump was directly in the middle
of the road"
"Why did you not go round it 2"
Because, sir, the stump had no right in the mid
die Of the road, and had right in it."
True John, the stump ought not to have been in
the road, but wonder you were SO foolish as not to
consider it was there and that it was stronger than
your wagon.
"Why, father, do you think that / am always going
to yield up my rights? For IL am determined to
stick up to them, come what will
But what's the use, John, of standing up for
rights when you only get greater wrong for doing
so2"

"Well John, all have to say is this, hereafter you
must furnish your own wagon

The tea plants recently imported from China by
the Department of Agriculture, connected with the
Patent Office, are in very thriving condition Some
of them have grown to the height of fifteen inches
Others are just appearing from the seed. The climate
seems to be congenial to them, and the experiment
found that not climate after ALL but labor or rather

be done by the ingenuity Of people in substitut

skilled labor processes of the Chinese az applied to
tea making, not likely to be initiated in any part
OF the United States It may not generally be known
that not only the tea leaves picked BY hand but
they are also curled up, leaf by leaf by Celestial
fingers. Necessity, however, is the mother Of inven
ton, and relation Of that family, an acute son Of
New England, has already set his mind on q tea.cur

crop, with few thousand fingers Of STEEL the work
which occupies the digits of million inhabitants of
the Flowery land.
Many other interesting experiments are going for
ward in the garden, the results of which will doubt
less be useful to the agriculture of the country. Mr.
Brown, the superintendent Of the department, has
l23 varieties of wheat growing and ready for the
sickle. The yield OF some Of these sorts has been as
certaned to be very far beyond the average of any
commonly produced in the United States. The
superintendent is also naturalzing great numbers of
foreign vines well collecting the almost
innumerable varieties of the American grape, and
testing their qualities The wine-producing interest
of the United States is destined to become one Of
vast importance.

What are those feelings to us given,
That do 80 much partake Of Heaven?
That come like music from the spheres;
Which float, then sink upon the ears!
Or like the whispering zephyr's gale,
When dying In the silent vale,
Soft comes this passion on the soul!
IT'S like those dreams TO angels given,
And wafts the soul on wings TO Heaven.

Upon the waters moonlight tide;
'Tis like the murmnring Of the wave;
It speaks-yet silent % the grave;

AFRAID OF WRINKLES When Queen Elizabeth
sat for her picture in old age, she ordered the artist
to paint her portrait without any shadows, for sha-
dows she well knew would reveal the deep marks
Of age in her queenly countenance and, with all her
courage, " good Queen Bess" had not strength of
mind sufficient to enable her to look her wrinkles in
the face. She could defy the Pope and the Spanish
Armada but she was afraid of her own nfirmites
She was not at all singular in her dread of sha-
dows and the most of us would prefer portraits
to be painted without those telltales of the dead
years that have left faces in mourning for depart
ed youth and comelness. Sunshine and dimples are
better than shadows and wrinkles, but since we can
not avert the black Marks it is better to face them
boldly. The foolish Spaniard who put on magnifying
glasses when he ate Cherries to make them appear
larger, was but type of the generality of mankind
who always adopting little expedents to deceive
themselves. We cannot smooth our wrinkled fronts
by any devices of art, fill the mouth with larger
cherries by the use of magnifying glasses Facts are
still stubborn, and they must be taken in all their
stubbornness. Let the Queen Ezabeths of the pre-
sent day tamiliarize themselves with their wrinkles
for though they may not them themselves, other
people will.

RECEIPTS FOR TESTING EGas.-There is no diff

amined by candle. Another way to tell good eggs
good they will lay on their sides always if bad they
will stand on their email end, the large end always
uppermost, unless they have been shaken considera
bly,, when they will stand either end up. Therefore,
bad egg can be told by the way it rests in water
fiat is good to eat, and can be depended upon. An
ordinary mode is to take them into room mode

candle or lamp. If the egg be good-that is, if the
