TIE REIGNING EXc1TEMENT.-A
stranger would naturally suppose that
political matters and questions form
in lDonaldsonville, as in most other
places, the reigning topics of discus
cussion>among the people, but such is
far from being the case. Whatever
excitement politics may have created
early in the campaign has been al
most completely overshadowed and
eclipsed by the arrival Of Mr.. Marx
lsrael's splendid new stock of Fall
and Winter goods, and its disposal to
buyers at prices remarkably low and
reasonable. Dry goods, boots and
shoes, mems and boys furnishing
goods, saGdlery, ETC., ETC., at prices
within the reach of all, may be found
at Israel's brick store on Mississippi
street, and the large number of people
who have been there and purchased
will testify to the e.seapness and ex-
cellence of the goods.

the parties most interested.

Although, owing to the severe
droutll, the growth of the sugar cane
has been retarded and the stalks are
Of rather diminutiye size, yet we are
told by several planters tlat the cane
is very sweet and juicy, and if heavy
rains TO not fall just before grinding
season fair yield Of sugar cane may
be expected While water would be
of great advantage to the crops, pro-
tracted and copious visitaticns of rain
later il the season would prove a
great injury. We hope for the best.

REPUBLICAN MEETING AT ORANGE
GROVE PLANTATIoN.-Am ass-meet-
ing OF Republicans was held at the
Orange Grove plantation, left bank
Of the river, last Saturday afternoon,
at which from. two to three hundred
people were present. Addresses were
delivered by Messrs. John A. Chez
vers, Pierre Landry, G. N. Lewis, G.
III. Hill and Jno. d. Cantey, which
kept tho audience entertained until
nearly dark. A considerable degree
OF enthusiasm was apparent and the
Grant and Wilson spirit decidedly
predominant. There is no concealinr
the fact that the supporters of the Ma
tional and State Republican tickets in
this parish are doing live work for the
success of their party, and if their OPP
desire to even show respcc-
table vote against them on the fourth
OF next November Il little corresponds
ing activity must be displayed.

The dry weather is very favorable
to cotton picking, and cultivators of
the fleecy staple in the New River
district are taking advantage of the
season to gather in their crops. There
are some fine looking fields of cotton
in the portion Of the parish referred
to, and a good yield is anticipated.
In one or two places worms have
made their appearance and destroyed
the crop, but in most localities it has
not been injured by them.
