PROPERTY REsToRED.-It was
with unaffected pleasure we heard of
the restoration to our fellow-citizen,
Major w. F. TUNNARD, of his ex-
teDsive warehouses and workshops,
which, during the war and up to a
recent period, were held and used by
the Government. This property,
the fruits of twenty years Of indus
try, toll and enterprise, is once more
restored to its rightful owner, in the
possession of which we hope he may
never again be molested.
The Major, like thousands of 9th
ers, whose circumstances were whit
tied down to a very narrow compass,
by the untoward events of the war,
has yet the vim and vigor of life and
enterprise to aid him in building up
anew his former thrift and prosperity.
In this, he has also an important and
effective auxiliary in his son, F. D.
TUNNARD, who a few weeks since
managed to secure nook in the old
premises on the corner of Main and
Church streets and went to work to
try and build up again the old bust
ness Of carriage making and repair
ing. Now, that he will have ampler
room to spread himself" in, and, as
we hope, will meet with a steady
and increasing patronage, we shall
look forward with confidence and
pleasure to that "better time" COM
ing to be realized by both father
and son.

aaHoME AGAIN.-We take pleasure
in noticing the return Of Gen. Jos.
BERNARD and bis son. who reached
here on Saturday from Polk County,
Texas, where for some time past they
have been engaged in their accus-
toned vocation Of planting. They
came overland, and brought with them
a number of mule and OK teams, to-
geLher with the most Of their hands,
who were unwilling to be left behind,
but anxious to get back to the old
homestead in this parish.
We regret to hear that Gen. BER-
NARD, has been quite i'll, since his re-
turn. His son, whom we met on
Sunday, is looking in fine health.

thus enabled to obtain free access by
the rivers to her upper provinces on
the Parana and Uruguay.
The CATTLE PLAGuE.-The muir
rain has been prevailing to a most
fatal and alarming extent throughout
Europe, where it appears to have
been invariably the precursor of
cholera. Like the cholera among the
people, SO the epidemic peculiar to
the cattle, has Stayed its thousands,
and until it reached England no
remedy could be found to check its
progress or effect a cure.
Circumstances may possibly in
troduce the malady to these shores,
and it is well that our people should
be made acquainted with whatever
plan or formula of prescription can
be suggested by veterinary science
and experience to ameliorate or pre-
vent the worst consequences of the
disease.
The disease, says the New York
Meas, is not necessarily imported.
Gases are cited in which cattle have
been attacked by the "sore Sickness"
as the French term it, when it was
impossible that any infection by Or
binary means could have been the
cause. Hence, it is presumed that it
is wholly, if not essentially atmos-
pheric. Be it what it may, these are
the symptoms, and our farming read
ers had better note them. 1t causes
a total and almost sudden loss of
milk--a running at the eyes and
nostrils-much groaning and a great
deal Of languor. To cure these, it
has been advised in England, and
found effective, that you take for the
affected animal, quarter of pound
of table salt, quarter of a pound of
Epson salts, quarter Of a pound of
birthstone, two ounces of ground
ginger, two ounces of nitre, one quart
Of old ale. We commend the subject
to our readers and the remedy too.
Both belong to living issues, and are
such topics that no farmer can afford
to pass by UNDECIDED.

CoTroN PICKING MAcH1NE.-The
Cairo Times, of the 7th inst, has the
following
A gentleman paid Cairo a visit a
few weeks since, on business connected
with machine for picking cotton, and
from its workings the instrument
promises to be perfect success. The
gentleman alluded to hopes to have
the machine ready by the last cotton
picking this fall, and to have it in
perfect order by the time the next
crop invites picking. This has hereto
fore been considered impossible, but
the principle Of this machine is des-
tined to surmount all opposition and
meet the desired end.

A LEAP FOR FE.-An extraor-
binary event in the local history of
our city took place yesterday. -Four
soldiers were pursued by the patrol
guards, for some offence, and in their
flight, rushed to the road leading off
the public square to the old wire sus-
pension bridge. Three of the men
made the frightful leap from the edge
Of the p1ecipice, clearing the ledge
of rocks and lighting on terra frma,
height of sixty feet, safe and sound.
They swan the river and made good
their escape. The guards captured
the one who considered "discretion
the better part Of valor," and stood in
utter amazement watching the des-
perate exertions of the three men
who had bafled them. We were I'M
able to learn the ofense, but we are
constrained to say that this wonder
full feat is only paralleled by the leap
for life by General Putnam, an incl
dent that stands out boldly in the
history of the revolutionary war
