EARNING OOerafiOHns.

Farmers generally concur in saying, that the
for farm work than any for several years past.
The late rain has given new start to all kinds
of growing grain everything thus far looks ia
vorabe for good results. There is no interest
in this region of country of so much Importance
as the grain growing interest; indeed, all other
resources are comparatively small. Every man
in the community, whatever may be his business
occupation, feels that his prosperity, is init
mately dependent on good grain harvest next
fall. If the pecuniary pressure, which now rests
on every branch Of business in the State is to be
relieved, the coming harvest, more than all 9TH
er sources combined, must effect it. If substan
tial relief comes at ALL it must come from the
products of the soil. All other expedients can
prove but temporary inviting capital from
abroad. to be loaned among tho people DRAWN g
good interest, will ev entually only increase the
general embarrassment. 1t is mistaken policy
to suppose that large sums of money brought in
to the Stats and loaned out in exchange for in
cumbrances on real estate, is the remedy. Mon.
ey brought into the State for permanent invest.
ment in any branch of business, is of course de
SRA BILE but money brought here to be loaned
at nsurous rates or even at legal rates, will moi
insure permanent prosperity.
The only reliable and substantial resources of
the State at present, especially the southern par
oft, are the products of the farm consequent
ly if the aggregate of wealth is increased, it mus
be from agricultural labors Merchants, mechan
les, or any other classes, can do comparatively
but little, to revive the trade and confidence Of
better years. Our manufacturing interests, ar,
too small to afford any reliance: only mer
fraction of the laboring classes obtain permanen
employment or derive support from this source
Everything therefore among us, depends large
ly for success, upon the growing, the maturing
and the reaping of bountiful harvest the com

Hail Storm.

On Monday last one ofthe most violent hail
storms ever experienced in this vicinity, passed
over our city. Hail stones fell, which are re-
ported to have measured five inches in circum.
ference. The gyratory movement Of the storm
was very apparent, both during its prevalence
and its retreat to the northeast. The little wind
which accompanied this hail cloud, blew from ev
cry point of the compass, during its transit over
our city, and the retiring clouds furnished as fine
panoramic view Of the construction and move
ments of these peculiar storms as conld be de
sired The upper strata of clouds were seen to
be revolving rapidly upon an axis perpendicular
to the horizon, while large masses of clouds be-
low like steam from large caldron, might be
seen rapidly rising. Mr.. Red6elds theory Of
the tohirling motion of hail storms could hardl y
be more strictly verified in appearance. Fortu.
nately the hail was unaccompanied by strong
wind, and the only damage we have heard of wal
the destruction of the glass roofs Of the greer
houses. Nearly every light of glass in Mr.
Hinsdale's large conservatory Of plants and flow
ers, was shivered to atoms, and doubtless all tn,
glass houses suffered in equal proportion.

A company of men from this place, left yester-

Louis, for the company. A large number OF
citizens, and friends of the gold seekers, accom-.
panied them to the cars, and we imagine more
than one wished he were of their number. We
bid goodbye to those composing this company,
with regret, for they comprise some of our most
intelligent, and skillful mechanics and workmen
If there is gold to be obtained by skillful labor
and persevering enterprise, we may safely pres
dict success for them.

New Board of Aldermen

The newly elected Common Council
Of the city has been fully organized, and
has proceeded to business. We have
not had the pleasure of seeing the mem
bers Of the new Board together in the
Council room, but we are assured by
intelligent gentlemen, who looked in
upon this body of city fathers the other
evening, that more intelligent and ca
pable Common Council, the city has
never had. 1t may safely be said, that
there are in the present Council, men
Of moral worth, of tried integrity, and
the interests Of the city, will be proper
ly cared for. The proceedings of the
Council, will we doubt not, be marked
with that dignity and decorum, which
should characterize all deliberative bod
les, and the people may rely on pru-
dent and well guarded administration of

A WINDFALL.-A gentleman in mar
row circumstances, who has been work
ing hard for many years, as discharg-
ing clerk on the levee, for the sup.
port of large family, suddenly found
himselfin affiuent circumstances yester-
day. An uncle in Illinois, from whom
he had not heard in long time, died
leaving him his whole fortune, SIS, 900.
The strangest part of the story is, that a
gentleman from Illinois has been here
making inquiries for month past, con
corning the fate of the family of the
missing legatee who was supposed te
have died OF Yellow fever, in the year

Rw- At the funeral of a child in Aca-
pulco, Mexico, the body was dressed
magnificently, crowned with roses, and
the table upon which it was laid was
covered with flowers The table was
carried through the streets with the
child on it; three or four men and bows
walked in front firing rockets, and the
military bands followed playing the gay
est music. Regarding the death of chill
dren as merely their translation to an
angelic existence, such an event among
these people is an occasion ofrejoicing:
rather than mourning.
