came. Soon, however-whether the court doctor

of the New Orleans Picayme, with his family were
among the lost by the accident to the Lady Elgn
MIR. Lumsden a native of North Carolina, and
at the time of his death between fifty and fifty
five years of age. He went to New Orleans about
thirty years ago, where he followed his profession
practical printer; he subsequently formed
business copartnershp with G.. W. Kendall, and
established the New Orleans Picayune, which paper
is recognized one of the leading journals of the
Southern States Mr.. Lumsden's connection with
the Picayune continued uninterrupted from the day
of its establishment until his decease; the excep-
tions being short pleasure trips into the interior of
the country and similar to that on which he met
his untmely death. Mr. Lumsden had an
amiable wife, and fourteen years of age,
both of whom, it is feared, were with him
the time of his DEATH and shared the fate of the
husband and father. During the last few years
MIR, Lumsden's participation in the direction of the
Picayune has been somewhat limited, by change
in the title of the firm and rearrangement of its
executive department, the chief duty devolving on
Mr HoIbroOk its managing partner.

AGRICULTURAL PRosPEors.-The past week, true
to the character of this extraordinary season. has
done little towards the ripening of the corn being
mostly humid, with occasionally heavy Showers
Taavera wheat has been exhibited in small par
cells for week past and appears of fair quality,
though damp. But the bulk of the crop, never
very promising, suffers continually from the want
of sunshine. the sodden state of the ground and
the heavy rains, while the long delay in the prog
ress of ripening makes the depredations of birds
serious item in the general account A great deal,
we are sorry to say, has rotted at the root before
the grain mature; so even with a set-in of dry
weather, the sample must be much deteriorated, as
well as the bulk seriously diminished. Without
wishing to be alarmists, cannot believe that the
best pieces of wheat this year will come up to an
average yield. The news, therefore, of plenty in
America and Southern Russia, is of no slight i'm
portance. Much hay is well-nigh ruined, while
good deal is yet out, and the sad accounts of dis
ease among the late potatoes daily gather strength.
Still this evil has also its counterpoiss in respec-
