The NEW BOARD OF AGRIcULTURE.-Of
the members of the new State board of Ag-
riculture, Hon. Alexis T. Smith, of New
Haven, is a substantial farmer, State
Senator, and a man of known integrity.
He holds the opinion, we believe, that the
influence of the former Board was injured
by the attempts of some of its members to
make 1t subserve certain personal and
political ends and he will be likely TO
keep a sharp lookout for political schemes
and schemers, if any such present them
selves in future in the Board. Thomas L.
Sheldon, of Rupert, is vouch ed for by the
Rutland Herald as ian excellent farmer
has had the sole charge of cheese factory
for years-has been town clerk for fifteen
years, and has twice acceptably represented
Rupert in the Legislature. Take him all
In all, he is equal to any one on the board"
c. Horace Hubbard, of Springfield, is a
practical agriculturist, has been for many
years the agricultural editor OF the Record
and Farmer, and was member Of the
House during the recent session Of the
Legislature.
Col. John B. Mead is a leading farmer
and granger, has represented Randolph
infuentially in the Legislature, was a cam
date for Congress in the late unpleasantness
in the second district; has been an active
temperance man. c. G. Pringle, of Char
lotte, is a very intelligent, practical farmer,
nurseryman, and horticulturist i modest
gentleman, but a man OF ideas and will
make, we think, an excellent member of
the Board. Mr.. G. S. Fassett, of Enos-
burgh, represented that town with credit
in the Legislature of 1872, is farmer, and
is called a candid and intelligent man. On
the whole, it will prove, we think, to be a
very good Board, though inexperienced in
its dulies.-Free Press.

SONS. Above we present all the facts
M far as asoertalned by the relief COM
mittec up TO yesterday. Mr. John X,
Glow, of 81. Landry parish, IN u note
referring 70 the above says: | have just
seen In the Times, OF this morning, an
approximate estimate of the extent Of
damage which has resulted from the
overflow In nine northeastern parishes
Of this state, which includes only the
parishes north OF Red river and then
passing ut the south of said river 10
the parish Of Pointe Coupee. The esti-
mate includes all of the parishes
between the Mississippi and Atchaial-
ayarivers to the Gulf, which Is all very
correct ms far rs II goes. But resulting
from the immense body Of water
which Is coming down the valleys of
the Mississippi, 0uachita and Black
rivers, It passes across Red river some
forty miles from It's mouth, and meet
ing with no obstruction until itreaehes
the levee on Bayou de Grace, IL sweeps
with irresistible force over its feeble
barrier, and occupying breadth Of
country from twenty-five to thirty
miles wide through the eastern
portion of Avoyelles and st. Laundry
parishes, and covering all the lands IN
that region, which includes within its
limits larger portion of the most pro-
ductive lands In those two parishes,
beginning at Moreauville, washing
around what is called Big Bend Of
Bayou de Glace, down to SimspOrt, Il
distance of more than forty miles by
meanders of the bayou, which is
thickly settled; thence down the low
lands on the western side OF the Atch-
afalaya river, behind the plantations on
that river, aud inundating them from
behind. Within helimits of the lands
thus submerged there are not less than
ten thousandsouls, including white and
black, mostly of the laboring class.
But no doubt some of the propretors
are in suffering condition on account
Of the almost total failure of the crop
of both cane and cotton caused by the
wet weather of last year.

Special dispatch to the Dallas Herald.l
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-The senate
judiciary committee yesterday had I'M
der consideration Mr.. Flanagan's bill
to change the boundaries of the east
ern and western judicial districts of
Texas. Marshall Ocbiltree appeared
before the committee and made an
argument in favor of the bill. The
members of the committee are favora-
bic to the proposed division, and will
report favorably on the bill, with a
provision fixing two places instead of
three for holding courts in the eastern
district. Brownsville, Austin and
Waco will probably be retained as the
places for holding courts in the western
district.
The house has appropriated ninety

To U. s. GRANT, President:
On the 10th day of this month, az
governor of this state, telegraphed
you there was an armed insurrection
against the legal government of this
state, and madea requisition on you
for aid to suppress it, and to prevent
violence. ! have just now been advised
that you never received the requisitiOn.
/ now take occasion to say that an
armed instruction exists in this state
against the lawfully constitutional
authority thereof, and as the legislature
cannot meet till the 18th day OF May,
call on you for aid to protect the state
against domestic violence.
(SignedD E. b. BAXTER,
Governor of Arkansas.
Similar calls had previously been
received from Brooks, claiming to be
governor, and two attorneys in his
behalf reached here yesterday to urge a
compliance with the call. Two attor-
neys despatched by Baxter will soon
arrive on like Grand in his interest.
The question as to who is the actual
governor, will be presented to the pres
ident for decision unless some other
mode of settlement shall intervene
before the matter is formally taken up
for executive consideration.
