We are very frequently asked whether the
different Pay Departments at Washington are
paying the Additional Bounty under the Act
Of Congress approved 28th Of July, 1866, to
which we are compelled to answer that they
are not. We have thousands Of dollars pend
ing in the Offices Of the Paymaster General
and Second Auditor, and have not had a
claim paid, with single excep ton, since
February last. 1t is said that a want Of funds
is the cause Of delay.

Tue Ran RoAB.-The work on the tunnel
between this point and Mt. Dallas progresses
slowly. The approaches to the tunnel COM
prise some heavy cutting, and viii not be in-
ished to The entrance of the tunnel for six
months at least, unless an increased force is
put to work on il. The present force nun-
bers some fifteen hands. The western ap-
proacb, the only one on which any work has
yet been done, now penetratea perhaps forty
or ifty feet into the hill, Is cut through solid
rock the width Of the road, and at the point
now reached, is twenty-five or thirty feet
deep. The cutting here Is very heavy, and
increases in depth until, at the entrance Of
the tunnel, it win be over sixty feet from The
surface to the road bed, all through solid
limestone rock. Work on the eastsrn ap-
proach win be begun this week. We have
been watching the progress Of the work with
considerable interest, and are compelled 10
say that it drags its slow length along at
most wonderfully tedious pace. For the nun.
Der Of hands employed the work proceeds
rapidly enough, but from the beginning there
have never been more than half as many men
employed as there might, and ought to have
been. Whether a stronger force viii be en-
ployed in future or not remains to be seen.
At the present rate OF progress it viii be at
least two or three years before the tunnel Of
six hundred feet is completed.

~ w. /. Witherell, Esq, of
New Orleans, who is engaged in
cotton planting in our parish, sub
mitted for our inspection yesterday
a number of cotton leaves taken from
the plantation of Mr.. Bird HARRISON,
which wore filled with worms of two
distinct species, one of which was
undoubtedly the genuine caterpillar
Or army worm. He informed us that
these destructive insects abound in
Mr.. Haralson's field, and it is very
much to be feared that they will
continue to increase and multiply at
such rate as to desolate many a
field now bright and promising in
this parish.

eyes are turned yearningly and low
ingly to Palestine and its promised
glories.
Judah Touro, Of New Orleans, be-
queathed considerable sum towards
this project, and large amounts have
been collected for the same purpose,
while efforts are being made to pro
cure more. .#,#E
1t will be a remarkable day when
the down-trodden children OF Israel
flock to their own country, and estab,
llsh themselves once more as a nation,
build up the temple, and revive the
sacrificial service in all its pomp and
splepdor. Prophetical writer's tell us
that this day will be but the begin
ming Of wonders; for, soon after the
restoration of the Jews, the Messiah
will come again, and the people who
have SO long rejected him, will hail
him as King of Kings aud Lord of
Lords. ....... ..5.-
We are told that there is to be
seven years covenant made by some
powerful monarch probably Louis
Napoleon) With the Jews that, under
his protection, they will establish them
selves in the land of their fathers, and
restore the temple worship. That as
soon as we know certainly that this
covenant has been entered into SO
certainly may we know that the end
draweth nigh. There is the cove
nant, we are informed, which is spoken
of in Daniel. There are many in.
geuious arguments advanced by these
expositors Of prophecy to sustain their
position but, after all the book Of
prophecy is a sealed one and various
interpreters expound it differently.
One thing is certain, that what
ever may be the views of the present
Napoleon, his uncle meditated re-
storing the Jews to Palestine, for,
in 1907, he convoked a great sanhe-
drim Of Jewish Rabbins at Paris,
who requested of him the admission
of their nation to free participation
in civil and religious rights.
The New Orleans Times, referring
to the reported offer of the Sultan of
Turkey to sell to any Christian Gov
eminent Jerusalem as it now stands,
advises Secretary Seward to bid for
the city and all "the appurtenances
thereunto belonging"
We bought Walrussia yesterday
without memories, says the Times why
should we not buy Jersalem to-day NTH
memories2 We paid$7,OOO,000 for an
open Western coast, few ice-peaks,
numberless seals, and coniempative
walrusses, and an unprogressive pop
ua,ion of dirly,skinned, nat-nosed
dwarfs in bear skins. Why not of.
fer 2O,O0O,0OO pisstres for a walled
city, with an abject population, every
foot of which is an Epic craven on
stone!
Sure enough-wby not? And if
Uncle Sam be in the speculative vein,
he might make handsome thing Of
it by selling out bis purcha se bodily
to the rich Jews, or in homesteads to
actual settlers from among the
scattered tribes, guaranteeing to each
the dearly priced privilege of Setting
beneath his own vine and fig tree,
with none to modest him or make him
afraid"

10 The Boston Traveller of the
10th inst, states that a lady in Read
ing, Mass, while conversing with
some callers, suddenly turned pale,
and sinking into chair, exclaimed,
"Did you hear that gunl 1t affected
me stangely;' and wept inconsola-
ably. Her visitors had heard no re-
port, and it afterwards appeared that
no gun had been fired at that time on
the place. News came however,
that her brother, residing a hundred
miles away, was at that very hour
fatally shot by the accidental dis
charge of his fowling piece while
hunting in a grove near his house.

Power OF A HoRsE's SCENT
There is one perception that horse
possesses that but little attention has
been paid to, and that is the power
of scent. With some horses it is as
acute as with dog; and for the ben
eft Of those that have to drive at
nights, such "a physicians and others,
this knowledge is valuable. | never
knew it to fail. and | have ridden
hundreds of miles on daik nights;
and in consideration Of this power of
scent, this is my simple alvlce never
check your horse at nights, but give
him free head, and you may rest
assured that he will never get off the
road, and will carry you expeditiously
and safely. In regard to the power
of scent in horse, once knew one

nay The late Levee Convention
held at New Orleans was rather
sparsely attended, and did very little
to promote the important object for
which it was called together A com
mittee was appointed to confer with
General Sheridan. The conference
proved satisfactory, the General RS
ceived the committee with courtesy
and politeness. The committee in their
report make mention as follows:
The sale of the evee bonds, issued
under act Of the last Legislature, was
discussed, and the General was anx-
ious to have Gov. Flanders sign these
bonds on bis return he had left New
York for New Orleans Monday. There
was a possibility that Gen. Sheridan
would iudorse these bonds, and if SO
they could easily be negotiated. The
General would probably reinstate the
Board of Levee Commissioners, ap-
pointed by him, and was anxious to
have the Convention cooperate with
this Board, which he had no doubt
would pay special attention to the re-
building of Grand 1evee and the
Hickey Levee.

specimen of the former may be seen

It was shown us few days since by

singularly enough located where the
