The Advocate for the past week has a
been literally filed with the proceedings

lana in engaging in works Of great public
Improvement, and in keeping pace win
her sister States in the rapid progress Of
the aye, has been a subjec. Ct uniavo "a
bic comment for years. ~
When otl!er States and communities
had inaugurated and prosecuted a. system
of canals, railroads, telegraplis, aud other
great public works, Louisiana had ado tione'
nothing MORE than read Of and admire I1a1
these things. Nature lad aeiless 80 much
for the 9 Sugar BowIn State, avisbed her
fayers 50 plenteonsly in rich lands, tfo
pical fruits, and almost every luxury, that
the early inhabitants seemed to have i
care and less energy to undertake those e
grand schemes that were rapidly chang
| ing the face Of other, countries.
| "A large annual nicreasefof oarapopnia
/ ton and wealth from the active WORKING
classes of other States, together with .
State pride and public appreciation o
the benefits accruing 70 other commnn'
ties from their magnificent enterprises
Ilave contributed to work a tborongl
change in the mode of thinking, and II
! the habits Of our people.
| Many ofithe public prints IN Louisiana
! the Democrat included, have again am
again urged the institution Of State AM
Parish Fairs. Hitherto, 5but4a feeble re
sponses had been given. But 1now.w
Ehope that the great success atiendan
upon the Baton Rouge exhibition ma
stimulate the citizens Of each and ever
Parish to establish local Fairs that ma
lie tributaries to the great Animal Ex hi
ton at the Capital.
