Sugar and Rice.

The Empire Parish Register says of rice:
"This cereal is progressing finely, with a
prospect that the yield will be abundant if
the river does not go down too rapidly"
And the same paper says of sugar cane:
"The stubble, which was so backward, has,
we understand, taken fresh start, and
now the prospect is that tOlerable crop
will be made this season."

1885, and has grown old and childish in the
service of the State. His crime was murder.
He has ceased to labor, and spends his time
IN walking about through the prison he
imagines that be owns the institution and is
accommodating a vast fortune off convict la
Dor. Every night in his cell he dreams,
and imagines that he counts money by the
ton, and drinks whisky by the barrel.

The Educational COmventiOn-PrOgFam
Of To-day.
The State Educational Convention met
yesterday, organized ard adjourned. The
Lyeeum Hall, where the assembly of the
delegates took place, was tastefully deco
rated with the flags of all nations on the
face of the earth. Old citizens and friends
of education in general were present, not
to speak of large number of school teach
ers and professional leaders of youth. Yes
terday was marked with an entire absence
of political illusions and chickering's, un-
called for at such place, and intrusive for
such an object, which is a comparison of
notes between the representatives Of educa
tion throughout the entire State.
We append the programme of to-day,
which will be conducted strictly according
to this form:

Mr.. Conway moved that all delegates
arriving in the city be admitted to seats,
which was adopted.
The committee on permanent Organiza-
ton reported it should consist of one presi-
dent, twenty-fOur vice presidents and six
secretaries.
Hon. Michael Hahn was elected president
by acclamatiOn, and, being escorted to the
chair, took his seat in the midst of much
applause, saying:
In accepting the position to which you
have called me, permit me to congratulate
you on the assembling of the first State
educational convention of Louisiana since
the late civil war. The occasion is crafty
ing, as an evidence of interest in a subject
of such vital Importance as is that which
you have met to discuss.
1t would be superfuOus for me to detain
vou by any remarks on the value of educa-
ton, and It is equally needless for me to
speak of the duty OF the State and the
rights of the people as eOnIsected with that
subject. By slow but sure advances, the
ideas embraced in the claims of popular
education have won their way to universal
acceptance The day of privilege has passed
away. That of right and duty has sucA
ceeded it, and men would bear as patiently
a restriction of their dearest political rights
as they would suffer denial of the Oppor-
Junities for education.
In our own State the subject assumes an
importance which it does not everywhere
possess. The peculiarities of our position
render it of urgent and imperative neces-
sity, and if anywhere there exists time for
hesitation and delay it is not here: The
amended constitution of the United States,
by making the humblest of our citizens the
peer OF the wealthiest in the rights and du-
ties OF citizenship, has created a necessity
Tor the education of the masses too urgent
to admit OF delay. Every hour of neglect
is pregnant with perils, which viii increase
while the neglect shall continue.

hEY WEST, Oct. 3U.-1he steamer
Anna, which arrived here at half-past
three this evening from Nassau, brought
the intelligence of the burning Of the
steamship Missouri, en- route from New
York for Havana. She left New York
on the 18th inst, and burned off Abac0.
1t is reported that over eighty lives were
lost. Only twelve are known to be
saved. Captain Curtis and crew are said
to hc among those who persisted.
KEY WEST, Oct. 31.-When the boat
with the survivors of the Missouri left
the burning ship, one boat was@kcen,
Keel upwards, with two men on the keel,
who were saved. The boat lay by two
hours to save others, but it is not likely
that amy OF them escaped, As not Il sail
had been seen for days previous to the
tire. For forty minutes after the rescued
boat left the ship, they saw the passcn-
gers and crew left on the vessel crowded
ON the after part. The passengers were
hreakfasting when alarmed. The boat
was rescued Ivy the schooner Spy. 4.
schooner was sent towards the burning
ship, but returned and reported that she
had seen nothing of the boat or paSsen-
gers. The sea was breaking heavily on
the reefs. Seven children were aboard,
lone of whom got into the boats.

reports in the Lancet a case where life
was saved by the TRANSMISSION of blood,
by what is known as the aimmediate4
method. The patient was a lady dying
from h@morrhage. Her pulse had be-
come imperceptible both at the wrist
and in the temporal arteries; the hearts
action was very feeble, and steadily
growing mor 50; she was insensible,
with dilated pupils that refused to con-
tract on the approach of q light the e4x

face blanehed. Blood was pumped, by
means of a suitable apparatus, directly
from a vein in the arm of a man, into q
vein of the lady's arm, without exposure

Some eight ounces of blood were thus
transfused. AS the operationproceeded,
the nulso at the wrist became pereepti-
bic, the lips less blanched, and warmth
returned to the hands. In II few hours
consciousness returned, the patient took
