having receded full two feet so far,

half loads. The three Packets of

fully fallen out Of time and are all

O good rain, which was indeed more
than needed and acceptable; every
thing improved under it's dispense
ton, even the weather moderating
back to it's April garb. The cotton
crop is nearly all saved and gath
cred, and turns out to be an excel
lent one, after all the drawbacks of
the early unpropitious Spring. We
think we are safe in estimating it at
bale to the acre, which is better
than any year since Lincoln's un-
pleasantness. The cane crop, now
in full blast of grinding, is turning
out also very we'll, especially after
the three freezes of the first days of
this month. Cotton, sugar, molas-
ses and cotton seed are being hauled
to Town at lively ticks, and our
Warehouses have frightened up to
good business strokes. Town peace

Glorious louisiana.

Under the guns of the Federal fleet and
the Federal army, Louisiana has done her
whole duty. All parties and all sections
ought to be gratified by the defeat of tho
Kellogg oligarchy.a It has been simply a
conspiracy which stole an election, stole
judicial decree to declare it entitled to its
theft of the election, stole the offices, and
it has been stealing everything else which
it could convey into its keeping. By the
appreciation which law-abiding people
have extended to revolution itself, can
the measure of this atrocious Kellogg
nsurpation be taken. -. ',14I II
There Is barely anything Of which our
c0untrymen are SO tenacious as law and
order; they place them even before liberty
and justice, if it so be that there should
occur conflict between them. But in the
recent emeute in Louisiana all mon have
sympathized with those out of order, be-
cause those in order were of the mingled
quality of vermin and pirates. A defeat
OF those clements in the election of Mon.
day ought to crafty both parties moro
than either organization would he pleased
with it's success.
1t is honesty against thieves, security
against plumber, life against murder, pro-
lection against robbery in Louisiana. In
the redemption of that State all the States
should rejoice in common. Her PROSPER
lty, by her situation and resources, is the
prosperity of all the States. Her adver.
sity, retardation or paralysis, is the like
distress of all the rest, for tho same reas.
on. Interest and sympathy concur to
make the cause of Louisiana the cause Of
the whole country.
The people of Louisiana are already
talking of the impeachment of Kellogg.
In our opinion, however, impeachment
will never be reached, though the Legisla-
ture should be overwhelmingly Conserya-
tive Kellogg and bis crew will hardly
wait tor the assemblage of an honest Leg.
islature. They will initiate Bullock, Of
Georgia, and will run away North, and
then sink into ostracised obscurity, as he
has done. The hopefullest incident of the
election, whichever way it has gone has
been the division of the colOred vote be.
tween the parties. For the first time in
nine years Of their acknowledgements have
the Louisiana negroes voted on the same
principles which impel other citizens,
some on one side, some on the other In
the ability to influence the negro vote by
the same means and in tho same divided
directions characterizing other votes, rest
not only the hopes of the South but the
very chances, almost, of the colored man
to continue q citizen. Glass suffrage in
time would be bound to come into like
communication with class legislation. We
welcome every evidence of it's decadence.

hereabouts are in a perfect sweat as
regards the result Of our late cleo
ton, and really believe the lying fig
ures of the Republican, and can't
figure Moncure elected. We feel for
all such and desire they should wait
a little and they will see that even
the Counting Board can't count in
Dubuclet. Moncure is our next
State Treasurer sure and certain.
