On Crosse Tete, Iberville Parish, on
Monday evening, the 18th inst, FRED
ERIC ARBOUR, ST., aged about 60 years.
In the death Of Mr.. ARBoUR society has
been despoiled of one of its most excellent,
honorable and useful members.
He was native of our city and had re-
sided here for the greater part of his life.
His character for industry, enterprise and
usefulness was such as to endear him to
our community and many there are, who,
together with his large and estimabIe
family will long and deeply feel his de-
parture for "that bourne whence no trav-
eler returns"

r3y" The Louisiana Conference OF the
Methodist Episcopal Church closed it's an
nual session at this place on Monday last
having performed its labors in less than
one weeks time. Interesting services have
been held morning and evening during
the session, which were largely attended
by people of various denominations. A
number of eloquent and able discourses
were among the prominent and interest
ing features Of the occasion.
We publish in another column the list
of appointments made by the Conference,
for which we are indebted TO the courtesy
of the Rev. J ohm Pipes. The Rev. G. W.
Carter, who is appointed for Baton Rouge,
is ably qualified for tho charge, and will
no doubt worthily fill the place of his
gifted and estimable predecessor, the Rev.
w. E. M. Linfeld, who, to the great regret
of his numerous friends here, is transferred
to another post, he having Joined the
Mississippi Conference and been assigned
to duty at Natchez.

EMuGRANTs.-We notice from
time to time, of late, the arrival at
our landing Of considerable numbers
Of Irish emigrants. Many of these,
we learn, were agriculturalists in
their own country and come here to
engage in similar pursuits. We
heard a planter of this parish remark
a few days since, that he had up
wards Of thirty of them employed on
his place, and that he was highly
pleased at the steady, industrious
and efficient manner in which they
performed their work. They were
selected in Ireland by friend ex-
pressly with reference to their apti-
tude and knowledge in tilling the
soil.

pleasure Of q visit yesterday from Mr..
Paul Fourier, dramatic artist, from New

of other artists who, by the late burning

understanding the language or appre-
ciating It's elegance and force of expression,
will hold out to Mr.. Fourier the hand Of
welcome and of patronage.
