The T0ur of Eurane.

We learn from the Picaytlne that gu,
friend Marion A. Baker of the editorial
staff of that journal, who sailed from here
on the twentieth ultimo for Europe, on the
steamship Frankfurt, arrived at Southamp-
ton in sixteen days after the departure
from New Orleans.
The following extracts of private letter
show how he enjoyed the trip
write you hurriedly at an early hour
and just as we are entering the port of
Southampton.
We have had glorious trip, and fast
one, only one day of anything like rough
weather, and that nothing to speak of.
The ladies were at table with nearly the
punctuality of the officers of the ship. This
Is by tar the pleasantest of any European
route, being much more southerly than that
from New York. This trip has really
seemed more like an excursion on a lake
than a sea voyage, and l could scarcely
Ieallze, when we made the light at Lizard
Point, that we were indeed in sight of Old
England. l was on deck bright and early
TINS morning enjoying glimpses of the Isle
OF wight and those bold, white cliffs where
Iennyson has doubtless seen the sea so
often break.
Oh! the glimpses of English scenery.

The lberrile South SAYS

Too much rain is still the general CON-
plant OF the planters. The crops are now
in the grass, and nothing but dry spell Of
two or three weeks can be of benefit. With
dry weather, and with rapid labor the
cane crop may yet be made good Corn has
suffered greatly, and we fear that the crop
will be small. As for cotton, it too has
suffered; but there is but a small amount of
lands in cotton in this parish. Upon the
whole, we can not say that the crop pros
poets are good. The trouble will be in the
shortness of the grain crop. This will
necessarily occasion a rise in prices, even
without other causes. But France and Ger
many are without grain crop; and how
ever short We may be in America, some of
our grain will go to Europe, taken there
6y the heavy prices that will be offered

we learn that things are working finely
IN the new parish of Red River. The peo-
pie as mass were in favor of the oroani-
cation of the new parish, and now. since it
is a fixed fact, every one is pleased with the
prospect. The police jury have gone to
work promptly, and ere long the necessary
public buildings will be under course of
construction. Coushatta, the parish site,
heretofore a thriving place, will no doubt
improve considerably, not only in popula-
