COLLECTING Tour AND THE RESULT.
Hyams, Of the West Baton Rouge Sugar
Planter, has been out on q collecting
tour, and gives his experience in a late
number Of his paper, as follows:
Prompted by an empty pocket and the
d8ns of numerous creditors, we hired a
buggy from DR.. Bauer, one day last
week, and started out on a collecting
tour through the parish. Where we
went and where. we didn't would fill
more space than we can spare for such
details. How many were not at home;
how many had no money; how many
did not like to draw upon their mer-
chants for such small sums; how many
swore they never received the paper,
and a hundred other excuses, were
enough to drive a poor fellow crazy and
make him doubt the integrity of the
world in general and our mankind in
particular. Invitations to drink were
very freely offered and an invitation or

that there was no such person as John

certain disgraced and impudent reprobate
named Nipple who proceeds to get his
name changed to fit that which the mem

chose senator This is the person who
now claims to be the Senator from that
State, although bis name was not Michel

THERE is a singular natural curiosity

THERE is a singular natural curiosity
in a lake in Vermont, consisting Of one
hundred and fifty acres of land floating
on the surface Of the water. The tract
is covered with cranberries, and there
are trees fifteen feet high. When the
water is raised or lowered at the dam of
the pond, the island rises and falls with
it. 1t affords a fine shelter for fish, large
numbers of which are caught by boring a
hole and fishing down through, as through
the ice in the winter time.

JUDGE KEYsER, holding the District
Court at Marysville, has decided that the
owner Of property to the center of the
street or road, may recover damages for
the use Of said street by railroad. and
for any depreciation that may accrue to
his land fronting on the street in conse-
quence of the construction of railroad
there. The principle is, we believe.
novel in our jurisprudence; but has
strong Prescriptions in its favor, and we
should not be surprised if it were gener.
ally accepted by jurists as sound.

S3,000,000 to be divided equally between
New Orleans and Baltimore, and devoted
to free schools for white and coored
children. All of that magnificent prop
erty has been wasted in litigation and
