! with real, live, unadulterated Southern
| paper. Such a streak of luck, however,
! has recently crossed our editorial path,
and it is with unfeigned pleasure that we
lay that important fact before our readers.
Through the instrumentality OF friend
/ who soiourns on the other side Of Mason
Il DiXon's line, we have been favored with
a recent number of journal, published
not exactly where our friend resides, but
! hailing directly from that far-off state en-
! titled Louisiana. Anxious at all times to
obtain reliable information relative to that
favored region, ard duly to record the
same for the benefit of our readers, we
have perused the columns of this tropical
production with the utmost care Our
efforts to CLEAN something therefrom that
| might be of general interest, have, we re-
gret to say, been but partially successful
The agricultural and commercial interests
of the State are not spoken of at alive
are left in the dark as to the present and
prospective condition of sugar plantations
and cotton and rice fields-nor have we
any information as to the precise situation
of the bays, rivers, marshes, swamps and
cane brakes in which the country is so
abundant. Nevertheless, while the journal
aforesaid does not post us upon these sub
jects, it vet contains some matter relative
to the niger, which is BY no means dry
and uninteresting. This is to be found
chiefly in its advertising columns, upon
which we now draw for a few specimens
We give place first to advertisements Of
those whose niggers were bad enough to
take to their heels and run away:
FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD.-Ran away
from my plantation, on the 18th of January,
my mulatto boy, CHARLEY. He is about -
years old, feet 10 inches in height, straight
and usually very neat in dress. He is a
finished carpenter and was raised in Memphis
or neighborhOod, and will likely attempt
to reach that place. l viii pay $50 to any
one who may deliver him TO me- at this place, !
or lodge him in jail, so that get him.
A. NJ. WADDLL
Take Providence. La.
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD
Ran away, or was enticed away, from POS
Camp street, about the Goth January, Il yellow
girl named MADALINE, tall and likely and
about % years old. The above reward will
be paid for her If taken out of the tate, or
half of it if taken in it, and returned to 2OS
Camp street. She is supposed to be conceal
ed in the city.
TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD
Ran away from the subscriber on Monday the
18th inst. MARSHALL, bought from Lips
comb Day-he is slim and about five feet
ten or eleven inches in height, of a black COM
pleXion and aged twenty-five. HARRY, aged
twenty-five, about five feet seven or eight
inches high, stout and black. MAJOR, a
mulatto, about five feet seven or eight inches
high, stout, and aged twenty years. LEE, a
slim black boy, about five feet eight or ten
inches high, and aged eighteen years. These
negroes were bought from J. J. Cook. The
above reward will be paid for the delivery of
the above negroes to d. P. Sparks, or their
being lodged in the Parish Prison, and 500
reward for the apprehension of any person
cOnceGling or aiding the said negroes.
d. p. SPARKS, jefferson Parish.
FELLOwEs Co, New Orleans.
How these rewards would dazzle the
eyes of Northern dough face, who might
wish to carry out the Fugitive Slave Law in
all its humane provisions. If Louisiana
bordered upon Northern Free State, these
premiums to Slave-catchers would be much
higher. But We hasten to lay before our
! readers few of the advertisements of
such as keep niggers on hand and for sale
