damage done in the Ouchita Dis
trict by the overflow says:
OF actual suffering, there has been,

flowed people have, somehow, found
means of subsistence, although many
of them fed from the water with not
three days rations in their keeping,
and have, besides, for several days,
been without employment. But, all
causes must bring effects; and tho facil-
ity with which we are tiding over our
disaster, the worst ever known to this
people, will yet be followed by great
suffering. It belooves the planter, and
every head Of family, to look careful

We omitted in our Lass r. make
Esny editorial notice Of the 6anbeee
advertised in our columns Tor the
18th of June at ornea4 Panlb Store.
We are very foreibly sremi1ded q
the omission, by the Dosocrdt on
Wednesday. As to any " explana.
ton" we have mono to givei The
advertisements sufficiently explain
atory, when it states where it is to
be, when, and that "the political
issues Of the day will be discussed
by able speakers" Who those
speakers are to be, depends some
what. upon contingencies. Capt.
James G. White has consented to
be one, and there will be other rep
resel&atives Of the Rapfdes Bar
most probably.
The object Of the barbecue and
speaking is to makea beginning Of
the campaign. To commence to
awaken the people to the impor-
lance Of the political contest OF this
Fall, and primarily to compare
notes as to be pursued by the white
people of the parish, the party name
&C., SC.
That these things would have
suggested themselves to almost
any one, without the necessity Of
any editorial comment on our part,
is what might have been reasona-
bly, expected. We will state fur
Their, for the edifcatien of any en-
curing mind, that the question Of
organizing q white mans party,
under some name that will signify
the purpose of the organization,
will most certainly be discussed,
with what result we are not now
prepared to say, at the barbecue,
and that if the proposition meets
with favor there, that line of policy
will most probably be adopted in
this parish, as it has in st. Landry
already been adopted.

Our Parish.

, Our Parish.
It is we'll known that the farmers
Of this parish, have suffered ~
much, if not. more than any other
parish in the State. from failure in
crops since the year 1868. This
| year this parish is fortunate in -es-
Gaping the terrible calamity Of an
overflow, and the great loss and
suffering Incident thereto. The PEG
pie although greatly reduced in
available means, annoyed and op-
pressed in. many ways, have exhib-
tied an energy and determination
to succeed this year, which is in
the highest degree commendable
and encouraging. The crops al
though planted with great care and
earlier than usual have. been dam
aged by incessant rains destroying
in many instances, the stand. Of
both cotton and corn.' Many have
been forced to plant over or
thought it safer to do so, and will
be, perhaps, benefited by it. The
dry weather has been of great ad.
vantage to the cotton plant which
is now growing rapidly-and the
farmer has taken advantage of this
dry season, to thoroughly cultivate
his crop. From many portions of
our parish we receive from our
planters the. gratifying intelligence
that the prospect for a good crop
this year, Notwithstanding, the adj
verse season is better, by far than
last year. The recent rains on
Bayous Rapides; Cotile and Boeuf
and the Pine Woods will greatly
benefit the growing crops, and en-
courage the farmer with new hope.
The sugar planter after repeated
failures, attended with great losses,
has. cause Of graduation, for the
prospect for a big success in this
branch of our agricultural industry,
is greater, than any year since the
war.
The present crop.will be made at
a small expense comparatively, less
than any previous one, by far, it
being the determination of all to
economist, and.do with as little as
possible. The merchants have been
very slow to make advances and
although in some instances, great
want will be experienced, yet in the
end it will turn out advantageous
ly to the farmer, forcing him to ex-
ercise the most rigid economy-to
make virtue of necessity, and
keep out of debt.
Under all the circumstances the
future of the people of Rapides, is
as encouraging if not more so, than
any in Louisiana.
Profiting BY the severe lessons
of the past, our farmers have learn
ed that they can become indepen-
dent, only by raising everything at
home necessary for home consump:
ton, and they can obtain help only
when they 'first help themselves.
Let the wise policy, of our farming
community looking to their own
farms for the production of every
thing necessary for home consump-
ton be inaugurated, and faithfully
pursued, and a few years only will
elapse before our former prosperity
will return, and ours be happy
and prosperous people.
There is a silver lining behind
the cloud, and by the dint of perse-
verance and a wise economy we
will live to see it.

TRIAL COLFAx PR1soNERs.-We
have now only one mail a week
from New Orleans, and this by
Monday boat. Hence the latest
news We have of the trial of the
Colfax prisoners was from the New
Orleans papers of the 23d inst.
Mr.. MARI, counsel for the defend
ants, made a motion to strike out
certain counts tor the indictment,
on the ground that the court was
without jurisdiction to consider
them. This the court refused to do
as the prisoners had already plead
ed to the indictment, but left it
open for them, as the only regular
way, to object to the introduction
of testimony to sustain the Courts.
Several witnesses have been exam
ined, and the testimony is about
the same as that Of the last trial.
Associate Justice Bradley of the
United States Supreme Court is
sitting with Judge Woods in the
trial of the case, which pro mises to
continue for several weeks. 1t is
impossible for US to give any correct
idea of the result, but we join the
whole people Of this and adjoining
parishes, in the sincere wish, that
the political prosecutors of our
friends, will signally fail in their
nefarious designs.
Since writing the above, we have
received papers of the Goth inst,
from New Orleans. Examination
of witnesses continue. There have
been several new ones who are tes-
tifying at a round rate against the
prisoners. No new facts have how
ever, been elected in this trial, that
we're not brought out on the last.
