MARKETS. The alterations in the ,uar-

cd, and ample opportunity is afforded by
the accommodations there for testing the
question whether anything like a regular
market can be established. Council we
think would do we'll by establishing two
regular market days, say Wednesday and
Saturday morning and evening, and pas
sing prohjbitory ordinance against the
sale or purchase Of all articles usually
kept at markets at amy other place during
market hours. This power they possess
without question. Our citizens can also

~ Well, did old Nick, or any of bis
companions in misery, ever see such a
week as we have just passed through !
Nothing but rain, mizzle, alternate clouds
and sunshine. II is said by our oldest
Inhabitants that such weather produces,
worms, cAterpillars, bed-bugs. chihches,
and the deuce knows what else in the
shape Of pestilent vermin. That there is
some sort Of . worm in our cotton fields
is beyond question, but whether this in.
sect is the ~full-blooded destroyer Of cotton,
we cannot say. because nearly every one
seems to differ as to what their destruc-
tive propensities may be, and as we have
not arrived at those years of discretion
which are supposed to bring wisdom up
on all points, we, therefore, decline an
expression Of opinion which may be er-
reneously construed" There is some.
thing in the cotton felds--like a niger
in the wood pile.

TIE PETROLEUM SrovEs Without ex-
ception one of the most useful inyen-
tons of the age, is the Petroleum Stove.
Those who have never seer it can form
no conception Of its great utility, econo-
my, and hardness in a family, especially
where fuel and servants are difficult to
procure. We have seer these stoves in
use, and have no hesitation in saying
that they will be adopted by every family
in the South so soon as their merits can
be established among a people naturally
%incredulous of all new inventions. For
fuller particulars, we refer TO tho adver-
tisement in our columns to-day. We can
assure our readers that it is no humbug,
and for the proof of this we refer to the
fact the President Of the Company is a
son Of the late Chief Justice Eustis, and
that the stock is owned by many of the
leading citizens of New Orleans, whose
names are far above any connection with
a association smacking Of husnbug or
.imposture. When the petroleum wells of
this State are in full operation, the ex.
pensc of the petroleum will be so light
that cooking will be but a nominal ex.
pense in every family's necessities.

trary, with the single exception Of the

ed by Mr.. V. Leblanc & Co., where, we
are informed, some twelve or fifteen freed
persons have succumbed to cholera, un-
der the paternal care Of a freedman ply
stefan, whose nostrums have been efica-
cious in almost every instance for the
" bone yard" Otherwise, the health is
good. Our planters arc doing all il their
power to ward the disease from their
plantations, and to our certain knowledge.
are doing as much to prevent cholera
amongst their employees, as they did
when the same operatives were slaves.
This is a subject Of general remark with
all we have conversed with in regard to
the matter, aside from our own obserya-
tons as a Sub Agent Of the Bureau. We
hope Gen. Howard will delay dispensing
himself into his new trowsers on account
Of the great cruelties practised upon the
freedmen in the South. -
