|We learn that Mr.. Couret of our
town is going to establish a commission
house in New Orleans as soonias busi-
ness will admit. Flattering promises on
the part Of the large number of planters
with whom he has been in business rela-
tions for the last fifteen years, besides his
knowledge of the worth, quality and clas-
sifcation of all the different products of
the country, he undertakes this task with
that confidence which gives. the will and
intention Of working ardently towards
the interest Of his clients. And in order
yet to do more and better, he will chose a
partner who shall be worthy Of their con-
fidence, as also "a book keeper whose re-
putation shall add credit to the house.

Barbarians Of the sea. - Incidents like
the following do not add to the respect (?)
which is now felt for the Lincoln navy
The Nassau Guardianssa says
The Nova Scotia brig Thomas Tiles
ton, which arrived yesterday from Man
emilio, bound to New York, was boar
detl by an American man-of-war in the
Gulf, when her papers We're examined by
the lieutenant. The brig had been out
some time, having encountered very hea-
w weather, and being out of provisions,
tie captain asked the lieutenant of the
m ,n-of-war if he would sell him some. He
replied that he could neither give nor sell
any, but he would mention it to his cap
tain when he returned on board. The
captain of the brig remarked that a Bri-
fish man-nf-wa would not suffer him to
starve, and reminded him that British
wlr steamer had recently to~ed an Ame-
rican vessel to St-T'homas. The Ameri-
can man-of- war left without relieving his
wants, and before boarding fired without
hoisting her flag. The brig afterwards
fell in with an American merchant-nan
and hoisted her flag Union down. The
vessels were standing towards each other
before the latter perceived that the for
mer was in distress, when she tackled
and stood off.

Our war Correspondents.

We published two weeks since an in
teresting correspondence from sLieut. j.
G. Joffrion, of the "Creole Chargers, cap,
tain r. Cannon. The narrative Of that ac-
complished soldier and gentleman has
beenread, we understand, with the great
est interest. To-day we give letter from
Private w. NJ. G. Nelson, whose account
of the events and circumstances of the
company, since thebeginning of their cam
paign in Kentucky, is full of pathos and
love to our country. The writer in the
name of all the company pays deserved
tribute Of affection to their captain.

Military Meeting.-Captain R. Boone
late Of the Atchafalaya Guards, visited
our town cn1Monday last, and was well
coined to the hospitalities Of our little Ca
pital. The object Of Capt, Boone's visit
home is the formation, under commission
of the Secretary Of war, Of a company Of
Artillery, to he called Boone's Battery o1
Artillery. He left Virginia in order to ac-
eomplish that patriotic purpose, and living
testimonials came along with him to
attest the worthiness Of that gallant Off
Ger, some of the Guards having Joined
him in that new move.
A meeting was called at the Court
house to congratulate the noble soldier
and those guards that have been willing
to risk their fortunes with him in the pre-
sent war Ludger Barbin Esq. called the
meeting to order, and two Of our respec-
table citizens, NJ M: Dorcineau Armand
and Valerien Moreau, presided over the
proceedings. Lond calls for Judge E. n.
Cnllom, brought! up to the stand that
worthy and patriotic gentleman and a true
speech he gave; full of feeling and en-
tlonsiasm forthe country's cause. It was,
indeed, a masterly effort. He was follow
cd in french by Aristide Barbin Esq.
whose,paternal advices to ourlyoung men
and pride i'll witnessing their devotion to
the mether-land. have been very credita-
Bile to the orator and to those he was ad-
dressing. We understand that Capt. Boo
ne will succeed in getting full number
of men in Avoyelles and Pointe Coupee
within the sixty days he is allowed for it.
With such men as the Hon. E. N. Cul-
lon and the Messrs Barbin to advocate
his claims among our parishioneerswe may
rest assured that Boone's Battery Of Ar
tillery w'N be formed.

| tation the devil knows where to but, it
is presumed, to some place whore their
feebleness and beauty would be- protected.
Some of them gave vent to their sad teel-
ings by permitting tears to trickle down
their rosy cheeks, whilst others seemed
to be in the highest glee.
,s Our captain has purchased full sup
ply Of overcoats, blankets, boots, socks
and stoves for the company. This is a
| case that can only be excelled by a fa-
ther His attention to the sick (when-
ever he has any, is that that could only
be expected from father. He is often
to be found sitting by the sick-couch,
with his warm fatherly hand upon the
heated brow Of the invalid, using all the
encouraging language known to man. In
many instances, this kind treatment has
proved far superior to the skill of the me-
deal man this I know from personal
experience. The fathers Of those brave
youths who have trusted SO much in this
noble man, should long remember his
kind treatment to their sons. We have
had few cases of sickness in our COM
pany, but we have not sent SINGLE
man to the HOSPITAL. while the other
companies have had at least five or six
at time there. This is blessing bes-
towed upon Ills by our mercifnl father in
high heaven and our friends at home
should pray to remain with us untilsthe
bloody work is over.
We have had very mild weather for
the season, and the Kentuckians say they
have never seen such warm weather for
the time of year.
Yours respectfully,
w. NJ. G. n.

81 years.
The deceased was young and high

A place is vacant at our hearth G

To throb in bliss above.

With tears, and call her dead.
We call her dead but O we know
She dwels where living waters fow."
