The Weather, Crops, &c.

We are having awful weather for
the crops and for everything else
that is dependent upon clear skies
and genial sunshine for a lettering

weeping sadly" and to describe the
rain as it came down during nearly

The season, already very back
ward from the protrac.ed winter, will
be made still more so from the pres

do nothing such weather.
From incarnation received, we are
warranted in the assertion that there
have not been more than two hun
died acres of cotton planted in The
parish this season. There was a
great deal of corn planted, but that
was cut down by the severe freeze of
last month. So that, SO far as crop
ping is concerned, our upland farmers
are about as badly off just now, as if
they were overfowed by the Missjs-
sippi. They have some chance, how
ever, for brighter prospects af,ei a

THE STATE LEGIsLArURE.-Ihls body
at length, has adjourned, to the in
finite relief Of the tex payers Of the
State. The law says, they can remain
in session sixty day, and they filled it
out 10 the letter. Observing, through
their record, what they have done
with the fewest solitary exceptions,
their enactments are full Of "sound and
fury" meaning nothing. lndivid-
ualism has been their forte. Bills
of Importance have given way to the
Smiths, Browns and Jones'. But the
great and latent object Of these legis
lators, in the opinion Of their constitu
ents hereabouts, was the enjoyment
of the luxurles they could procure
from there per diem. The resolutions
appropriating the amount therefor,
give nearly two hundred thousand
dollars A goodly sum.-Feltclana
Democrat, Clinton, La.
We hope that when the next econ
stitutional Convention" is held 10 this
State, one of the features to be en-.
grated by that body upon the organic
framework committed to its hands,
shall be to restrict the periodical as
sembsges of the Legislature to bien-
NAL terms-limiting each session to
twenty days. We believe the popu-
lar feeling would sanction the adoption
of such a measure. And furthermore,
in the event Of an emergency arising
ad interim, requiring an extra session
to be called let the Governor be pro.
hibited from converting the Legisla.
ture at any one time during the year
for longer term than ten days. This
will afford abundance of time for leg
islation to meet all ordinary emergen-
cies.
The great baue Of the country from
Congress down, is too much legisla-
tion-too much gas, buncombe, and
extravagant squandering Of the public
monies-too much enactlng, re-enact-
ing, amending and reamending Great
iugsinstability and confusion in the
laws which keep the peoples minds
in state Of continual doubt and IN
certainty and lead to great deal
more harm than good. "The world
is governed too much,' said an old
writer once, and to that excess of
unwise and frivolous Legislation al
luded to, is to be ascribed much Of
the NAL. administration we see in the
governmental affairs of the people.

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER


This valuable preparation containing in a
highly concentrated form all the properties
of the Jamaica Ginger, has become one of the
most popular domestic remedies for all dis
eases of the stomach and digestive organs.
AS tonic it will be found invaluable to
all persons recovering from debility whether
produced by fever or otherwise, for whilst
it imparts to the system all the glow and
vigor that can be produced by wine or bran
dy, It's entirely free from the reactionary eff
fects that follow the use of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruation. giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that so
frequently accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused
by riding in railroad car, or by sea-sickness
or other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external applica-
tion for Gout, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.
