For the South Western.
The Belle of Caddo.
SHREVEPORT.


Sweet Belle of the parish, thy beauty SO rare
Enraptures the vision of ALL
And makes thee, in every attraction, appear
An Eve ere the blight of the fall
Thine eye is as bright as the concave of night,
Lit up by the stars lustrous sheen,
And the tresses that play Der thy forehead of white
Would grace the fair brow of queen.
Thy FORM in its fautless projections, can vie
With the fairest of nature or art;
And the beam that sleeps in thy soul speaking eye
Betrays the glow of thy heart
Few daughters of earth can boast, in their PRIDE
Of charms that to thee doth belong;
And shamed Is the damsel who stands by thy side
In fashions gay, festival throng.
But tits not the beauties of person alone,
That make thee an object of love;
Nor yet the soft music that dwells in each tone
Of q voice sweet as angels above: r~
But the chaste flow of feelings that brighten SOUL
As pure as the light ofthy sme
That WELD Ger all hearts softened control,
And cause them to worship the while.
l met thy fond glance when sorely oppressed
With weight that had saddened my heart
And feared that the anguish that tortured my breast
Would never, no never depart.
But beam from thy face, more lovely and bright
Than ustre of Venus Mars
Dispelled from my sky the shadows of night,
And spangled its concave with stars.
Sweet vision of beauty, thou never wilt know
The minstrel who sings Of thy charms;
yet be will pray that life's current may flow,
unrufaed by cares or alarms.
May garland of glory encircle thy head,
And glow through eternity's day,
When the SOUL that endears thee to ALL shall have fed
From its beautiful temple of day.

Some confusion prevails in the public mind as to the
relationship Prince Napoleon bears to the Emperor.
The Prince, whose name is Napoleon Joseph Charles
Paul and whose title is Prince de Montfort, is the son
OF Jerome Bonaparte the youngest brother of Napo-
leon. His mother was Frederick Catherine, daughter
OF the King of Wurtemburg, and the eecond wife of
Jerome. As the French Emperor is the SOD of Louis
Bonaparte, the brother of Jerome, the Prince is. of
course, the first cousin of the Emperor Jerome. the
father OF the Prince, married Miss Patterson of Bat
more previous to marrying his second wife, whom he
married at the request if noimthe command, of the
first Napoleon, who refused, us we'll known, to re-
rognise the marriage with Miss Patterson.

THE HOG Crop OF THE WEsT.-Owng to the failure
OF the corn crop in large sections of the South and
Southwest the hog crop is likely to be short one
Pork and bacon therefore likely to rule for year
at least to come The present rates now prevailing
are very high.
Every farmer should strive to raise bis own meat.
The disposition which has been manifested by many
agriculursts in this section to give up raising meat
and rely entirely on the West for their supplies is we
think, unwise Though there are serious difficulties
in the way Of raising meat in the South, those difficult
ties can, we think be measurably overcome Certainly
no effort to accomplish the object should be left un-
tried

FATHER HYAcIsrHE DEFINES HIS Pos1TroN-We
copy as follows from New York dispatch of the 18th
Inc Tribune learned yesterday from Father Hya
cinthe that he desires to be understood that he is still
Roman Catholic. He has never BEEN he SAYS, an
uitramontane is not now, and never will be but he
denies that there is any for identifying ultra
montanism with the Catholic Church. He INDUCES in
the firm hope that the Council will not as is commonly
anticipated consolidate the utramontane theories and
them the creed of the church. but that on
the contrary it will leave the door wide open for those
who, like himself have been throughout life the de-
voted champion of more liberal construction of the
Catholic doctrines, and who, in particular have de-
tended the entire harmony between the Christian re-
llgons and the great achievements Of civilization OF
the nineteenth century The strong basis Of his relg
ious belief on which he dwells with particular empha-
ss Is the belief in the divinity Of Christ in the nspr
alton Of the Scriptures and the excellence Of the Chris
tan civilization of the nineteenth century Hyacinthe
has no fixed programme while here He has come to
see and study this country. After being here few
weeks or months he go the Ecumenical Council
or may not At present he desires to rest.
