The Suns RAYS AS A MOTIVE
PowER.-A New York journal gives
an account of very remarkable in
vention, the success of which is said
to have been already demonstrated
by the distinguished engineer, Cap
tain Ericsson, to supply q new fuel
in the place of coal, and new motor
in the place of steam. This extra
ordinary scheme is said to be to
collect and concentrate the radiating
heat Of the sun, and to use it for the
production of motive power. It is
stated that the inventor has actually
constructed and successfully operat-
ed three of these "solar engines"
as he calls them, kept in motion
solely by the radiant heat of the sun,
his first public announcement of the
fact being made to the Swedish
University of Lund, ut its late
centennial celebration.

CROPS IN LOUIsIANA-FATAL MULE
EPIDEMIC. .f.. ...rt

From the New Orleans Republican, July II.
On Sunday last our reporter visited
the locality on the New Orleans and Jack
son railroad known o. the pine woods. A
short drive through the country in the
vicinity of Amite City, soon revealed the
situation From PontchatouIa to Amite,
a distance of twenty miles, the crops are
suffering for want of rain. There has been no
rain there worth mentioning for the period
Of about six weeks. The principal crops
this season are corn and sweet potatoes.
The latter is yet .uninjured bat in many
places the former is entirely parched, and
will make nothing. There is some cotton
to be seen along the line of railroad. 1t
looks well, is kept clean. and there are no
fears Of the worm, as it ia now too far adj
vanCed. The freedmen work we'll, and al
thong we conversed with several rabid.
fre-eating Rebels, not one word was spoken
at all derogatory Of the fidelity and in
dustry of the colored population. On the
contrary, the general testimony is that the
freed people conducted themselves we'll.
aud far beyond the expectations of their
former masters. The colored man aoH uork,
the Rebel press to the contrary notwith-
standing, if he has any kind of inducement
or prospect for fair dealing on the part of
employers. 1870
In addition to the discouraging crop
prospects in the above mentioned locality,
more serious and much to be regretted
calamity has befallen nearly every planter
in st. Helena and Livingston parishes. A
disease pronounced by experts as char
bonnie has broken out among the mules,
horses and cattle, which sweeps them off
at fearful rate. Scarcely any warning
does this disease give, as mule is never
ksown to refuse food up to the moment of
its death. Death ensues from strangula-
ton caused by a swelling of the tonsils,
gsfeh impedes respiration, and the animal |
Oiten drops dead while feeding in the |
pasture. Seventy-one mules and about as
many head of cattle have died within the |
past two weeks Of this epidemic.
