IT may turn out that Louisiana is
not hurt so badly, after all. The New
Orleans correspondent of the Neac York
Times writes that, In the main, the crops
have not been materially injured, and
that, with favorable season from this
time forward, there will not be greater
loss than ten per cent of the crops. The
cotton and sugar crops, the principal
staples of the State, have not lost vi
tality, but are looking well. 1t is as
serted that the inundation, instead of
being an injury, will prove to be a
blessing, as the sediment which passed
with the water over the overlooked
lands will add greatly to their richness,
and for two or three years to come will
add largely to the increase of the crops.
The sugar crop is expected to be quite
large, one planter alone anticipating
the receipt of over five thousand hogs
heads of sugar, and between eight thou
sand and ten thousand barrels of mo-
lasses. The anticipated value of this
crop is estimated at 100000 which
would give profit of about 100000.

compared with the number Of those
peculiar butterflies, their progenitors
that / observed fitting about. !
for some time past, concluded thai
there was some unknown cause, fol
the fswness of the number Of worms
tut the mystery was solved, this

round. from one cabbage stock to
another, busy in search Of something
no doubt those green worms that des-
troy the cabbage.
The wren is wonderful bird
Tradition informs US, that from time
immemorial, the wren has been
known to cleanse the teeth and jaws
of the crocodile. AS narrated
when the crocodile comes upon the
land. he opens his mouth, for the
wren to enter. in search Of leeches
which he dsvours. This Is quite
agreeable to the crocodile, and he
will not harm the wren. They are
said to he mutual friends.
