The ca'erpllars arc reported in manv loca' j.

correspondents think the are too late to damage
any but top crops in some countier.
The bottom crops are poor, while the mid lie

secured y. The crop is generally reported as
better than tor Years.
Louisiana suffered severely from fresheis in
the early part OF the season, reducing her July
average to seventy three. The disa strous con-
sequences were partly remedied by the improved
conditions OF growth in July, but still the crop is
seventeen per cent below the average in some
parishes, as in East Feciana.

But through the intervention of friends the
Affair Was amicably adjusted Ea b gentle

NOTES FROM THE CAMP OF
THE FAITHFUL.

| The camp, or rather the stamping ground
of the faithful, the building in which Kellogg
sits and tries to assume the dignity while ex.
ercising the power guar snteed by the Consti
tuition. and, at present, the bayonets of the
| United States Of the Govornor Louisiana
is exceedingly lively.
1t is perfectly lovely to hear the talk Of
harmony in the ranks when harmony is not
for them III the first place, Antoine, c. c.,
is mad, though lie smothers his wrath, because
he was made the kellogg's scapegoat when
the faithful sat in council William induced
Antoine to 90 for the honors OF the temporary
Craftsmanship, and then went to work and
beat him for the position.
Dubuclet is slightly indig, ant, for reasons
very obvious and too numerous to mention
Deslonde don't approve of Kellogg action
against Dubuclet, who, it is said, is relative
OF his, and is, in sequence, anything but
harmon Gus in his feelings; and outside OF
this is Attorney General A. P. Field, whose
general and infinite disgust OF the proceedings
of Kellogg and his cl.nsmen has been dis
played on more than one occasion by his
.sctlOns in our courts
How good it is to see
All dwell in harmony.
The attenuated form and increasing debili-
ty Of the de tacto Executive is exciting the
alarm Of one or two gentlemen connected
with insurance companies, whose liabilities
would be increased hy his "taking OFF J" and
IN view OF the fearful shock 8 ven to the kel-
loggian nervous system, by reason of the
Great defeat he experienced IL Dubuclets sue

The nomination Of Thomas s. johnson as
the Radical Senatorial candidate III the Fifth
District, which vas announced with SO many
tiourshes Of journalistic trumpets, in the Re
publican yesterday, was, it seems, mistake.
The Radical delegates from the parishes of
Morehons Rchland, Carroll and Madison
met Mt noon, nominated George c. Benllam,
and five hours thereafter these delegates, one
of whom was johnson himself, and one set Of
contested delegates met end made what the
Republican call the "nominatiou" of Johnson.
Both persons will run, however.
One Crawford, a white person claiming TO
be Senator from the p,rishes OF Carroll,
Madison, Morehouse and Riclhand, which the
r ideals impudently claim to have majority
exceeding five u 0 Island, is in the city asking
sweet William tor troops, etc, IN order that
the five thousand men lin buckram p may be
protected in their rights.
A delegation of Radical attorneys called
yesterday afternoon at the abode OF the de
fictO in this city. asking the immediate re-
moval Of Judge Macarthur. The visitors we're
there in number and complain bitterly that
the course Of M Arthur deprives them OF any
chance to MAKE a respe table livelihood
Their tricks tending to that end probably do
not suit him.
