Jail Breaking.

Within the last twelve months, we
escaped from the parish Jail, in each
case the breaking being d. one from the
inside. The Jail, notwithstanding, was
built with especial reference to security.
1t is Il wooden building, having double
walls cciled and spiked with heavy
plank, and both tlOored and ccilcd over
head with 8 or 10 inch sticks of timber.
Still, the most stupid negroes III the
country--such as cannot steal an UNI
brclla, pig or pair of shoes without be-
| ing caught-sccm to have no trouble in
ending their confinement in this Jail of
ours. The jailor's wife, Il colorcd wo-
man, says she could get out of it,
| herself, without any trouble, if she were
put in there. The last delivery was
| that of Jake J OhnSOn and George Some
body Git makes no difference about his
namc) who were sentenced to the pcni-
tertiary, the one for stealing Il hog and
the other for stealing an UMBRELLA
They got out by unf;,stcning the CRATES
at the vcntilator overhead the upper
cells,and through the opening ascondcd
to the roof, and thence swung to the
ground by means of Il rope made OF
their blankets torn in strips. a gentle
man, in passing, saw the last one de,
scending, and raised the alarm, which
doubtless kept the remaining birds
some five or six, back in their cages
But Jake and George made good thci,
escape through the yards of Father
Gergaud and tho Female Academy.
The general opinion is that the jai
ought either to be sold at public sale
and altogether abolished, or that som,
: sort of discipline should be instituted
f with reference to the safc-keeping o
, prisoners. 1t is at present a mockcr,
, and an expense, with no correspondent:

Th" 18th Of April appears to have
been II stormy day throughout the west
and southwest. The effects of the wind
here we have already noticed. East of
this, rs far as middle Mississippi, we
hear of the ravagcs Of the same storm.
On the north, Little Rock was visited
by Il storm, on the l4th, which proved
very destructive. Along the valley of
the Platte, in the west, there was I.
for either man or beast to be away from
shelter.

Monday last was another stormy,

than on the 18th, but the rain was the
heaviest known here for many years.
orrNamplc, DcSiard street from PicO's

Il running stream from five to fifteen
inches deep. The commons had the
appearance of Il lake. And the hail
came also, in abundance, causing no
little damage in town land destroying al
most entirely the crops of Gen. Fargoud,
McSsrs. Layton, Lazarc, and Downs
& Mitchell below town. All the cot
ton up, and nearly all the corn, on these
places, will have to be planted over. In
the Colony, Mr.. Whitcd informs us that
the hail fell until it congcalcd in the

crop was pretty we'll ruined. We shall

Drowned,

About ten o'clock Monday night the
cries of some one calling for help, were
heard in the river in roar of sanders's
saloon and ltauNet's store. y few per-
sons in the vicinity, hearing the cries,
ran to the river bank and could sec the
struggling man in the water not more
than fifty feet from the bank. AS has
tily as possible they looscd Il dug-out
near ut hand, but the fistcnings were
so stubborn that enough time elapsed
before getting the boat loose for the
drowning man to cease his gr0ans and
struggles, and finally to sink forever.
1t was not until next day that the anN-
irty to know who it was that was thus
hurried into eternity, was almost dcfin-
itrly relieved. a negro man named
scott, who lived Just across the river,
had been in town Monday and got very
drunk. lie has since been missing, and
the belief is that he fell into the river
from his boat, or in trying to get in it.
and being drunk, although a good
swimmer, was drowned as stated above
All doubt will be settled when the body
rises To those who witnessed tho
drowning mans struggles and hearo
his appeals, the occurrence was Il very
sad one.
1t is :, wonder that cases of drowning
are not more frequent at this stage O
the river, Men thronS the stage plank
of boats, pushing and clbowing cacl
other; boys, with reckless daring, rid
cross the river in frail boats, some O
which are mere boxes, and yet this j
the second ease of drowning we haV
had to chronicle in over five years.

We are most truly glad to hear that
the Bayou Macon is falling at the rate
of 3 inches Il day. Very few places on
the Bayou Macon were moro than half
under, and hence no one was injured to
any extent, and all the planters will be
able yet to plant full crops provided
there is not another rise.
THE MOON.
The moon is, strictly speaking, not
one OF our parishes, but Ca'idn where
the Gazette is publishcd,i is one of them,
and the Gazette speaks of the moon in
this rather dcspairing style:
There will be iull moon in the first
week of each Of the first seven months
of the present year. In July there will
| be two full moons, viz: on the ID and
31st; and in the remaining five months
the moon will be at the full in the last
| week Of each month. 1t will probably
| be many years before it will happier,
again.
! We have no desire to offend either

curious to know what difference it viii
make, if s'it' never happens again.
