RED RIVER CROPS.

The Shreveport Gazette says: The
planters in the overaowed districts are
great industry in replanting
their fields. The young cotton was killed
by the water, and the corn was taken up
by the roots and floated of by the cur
rent The water stood upon the land SO
long that it destroyed all vegetation.
The extent Of the disaster can scarcely
be calculated by those who have not ex-
periencedit The continued rains during
the past week have retarded operations
There is no time to loose, as the season
is already SO far advanced that it is i'm
possible, with favorable season, to raise
more than hall crop The crops on the
nplands were never more unpromising,
being overgrown with grass and drowned
with heavy rains.

PROBABLE RESULTS.

An exchange paper says the Radicals
express their fears that reconciliation
may take place between the President
and the Radicals in Congress. They
think the signs of the times look that
way. He can not go to them, but they
can and viii come to him-the body Of
the Radicals we mean-not the leaders,
such as SUMNER and STEVENS They
will froth at the mouth and rave, but we
hope this is all the good it will do them,
for under their leadership the country
can never again be reunited, but CON
time divided into factions that will de-
feat all attempts at unity.

LULAH.

A correspondent Of the Nashville Ga
sette, writing from Lookout Mountain,
gives the following Indian legend: A
Cherokee Indian maiden Of exquisite
beauty, possessing the accomplishments
of dame nature, the daughter of great
ehief-and mighty warrior, loved de-
licate, handsome, and quiet youth Of her
own tribe. Her cruel father, the big In
dian" refused to consent to the nuptials
of the love-sick couple. The noble chief
tain desired his daughter TELULAH to
share the blanket, tomahawk, and bow
and arrow of one of the braves, hero Of
a thousand battles, and one who had
4" much scalps" hanging to his girdle.
The maiden revolted at the barbarism Of
her royal papa, and plunged over the
falls on the rocky ledge below, at which
point she was engulphed in the surging
and boiling waters, and never after was
heard of. Her lover died in despair, and
the falls were named Telulah. Time
has softened the name to the more eupho-
NOUS one Of "Lulah." The scenery at
the Lulah falls is grand and imposing,
the steep cliffs looming 10 the clouds, the
roaring of the angry waters, and its fall
of about one hundred feet, the rainbow
in connection with the romantic scenery
surrounding, all tend to make this spot a
paradise.

THE cORpovA CApTIyRs.

The Piedyune is informed by gentle
men direct from Mexico, that " the Gre
ole of New Orleans" who led the Liberal
party which captured the Confederate
colonisis at Cordova, was formerly of the
Federal staff in that city. The whole
number captured and held for ransom
was thirty-one. Up to the time of its in
formanfs departure no Imperial troops
had arrived, as promised from the CAPT
tai, for their relief The colony at Car
lot was not molested, as it seems that
the raiding party drew very nice terri
torial distinction.

CHASE.

A Louisiana gentleman, of strong Dem
ocratic proclivities, but with an unblem-
ished record for loyalty, is now in Wash
ington, lately dined with Chief Justice
CHASE, and AYERS, with considerable
wonder, that, in private conversation, at
least, the latter entertains the most mod
crate views concerning pains and penal
ties to be inflicted upon the Southern
people, and is not at all exercised at the
prospect of allowing full Congressional
representation to be admitted whenever
it appears that the Union sentiment is
made manifest at the elections.

MISSISSIPPI RIVER.

The Monroe Telegraph says: A gem
tleman stated to us few days ago, that
the annual spring rise in the Mississippi
river, instead of occurring in June, as is
generally believed, has for many years
occurred in May. We find he is mista-
ken, as to the year 1853 !; in that year
the river did not attain its highest point
until Che 18th day of June. This year,
we are inclined to believe, the greatest
food will not be seen any earlier

No Ground of Fear.-The sudden death OF
two of our citizens on Saturday and Sunday
last-Capt TorTEN and his son |. o. ToTTEN-
has been the cause of exaggerated reports out
of town that the cholera had made its appear
ance in Fremont. We are happy to record,
however, that the people of the country have
not been so foolish as to allow these rumors to
prevent their coming to town as usual. Capt.
TorTEN and OAKLEr died after very short i'll
ness which was marked with choleraic symp-
toms; but that it was really cholera is not at all
certain. Since Sunday no similar cases have
occurred, and whatever excitement there may
have been over the circumstance, has entirely
died out. Had the deaths above spoken of oc-
CURED on week day, when people were busy
with their pursuits, no sensation would have
resulted, save that of sorrow fer the bereaved
families. As il was Sunday was an idle day,
and there was great deal of street corner talk
that might have been left unsaid, if people had
attended church, for instance.
