- The New Rebellion"

This is what il ia second rebellion. II was
set on foot in the northwestern section OF Louis
lana some four weeks ago. The bands OF "whit to
Lesguers," with more or less b.Oodshed, took
possession OF eight or ten parishes, ending With
the strcciOus Old-bIooded massacre OF the
prisoners siezed at COushstts. The execution
Of the remainder Of the plot, the capture OF the
city OF New Orleans seems to have been precipi.
tated by the seizure by the police OF two boxes
Of arms imported by the "white Lesg1ers,"
and which were labelled "BoOts and Shoes"
The demand made by the Lesguers for the re-
lease of the arms was refused by Gov. Kellogg,
vhereupon they called public meeting, and q
confederate officer named Penn, who claimed
to have been elected lieutenant governor
on tie McEnery ticket in 1873. placed
himself at the head of the movement in
the absence of the more conservative McEnery.
The mass meeting was simply a gathering of
the ten thousand Leaguers, who had already
armed themselves and perfected full military
organization. The meeting denounced kellogg
a. an Usurper. and passed resolutions demand
ing his resignation. He peremptorily refused
70 accede to this demand, wheTeupon the
Lesguers appeared in the streets in arms, and
encOuEteTing the Metropolitan police a
Fight ensued, in which about thirty po-
Hcemen we're killed and one hundred
wOuHcet. Having vanOuished the police, they
were able to take full possession OF the municipal
and gubernatOrisl Offices, and Penn proclaimed
himself acting governor. The white leagues Of
Louisiana have made the great mistake OF sup
posing that the undou5ted sympathy felt
by the north for the people of Louisiana op-
pressed by carpet-bag misruIe would show itself
IN the Way of liberation for any acts of violence
by which they might seek 10 right themselves.
But the country has had enough of rebelIions,
and the commisseratiOn felt for the people of
South Carolina and Louisiana, under the cir
cumstances, is = good deal tempered by the re-
Fiction that these states are only suffering the
penalty Of their own m sdeeds. They sowed the
wind, and are reapiDg the whrlwInd.

The late steady rains were hailed with de-
light bv all the farmers. The long and eN-
haustive drouth had well nigh discouraged cv-
cry one and il was feared that fall sowing
would be postponed in consequence OF it until
it would be too late. 10 pillow before the rain
was as impossible as TO escape taxation. The
soil is how mos:ened as much as could be wish
ed for. The farmers are already taking advap-
tage of the situation and are putting all the
teams and plews they can obtain, into their
fields. Not day is to be lost, for experience
has taught the husbandmen that success IN
wheat growing is dsubly assured by early
sowing. One newspaper says: 1.-The crop
ought to get good stand' before the severe
freezing weather, in order to winter well, and
then the EARLIER it natures in summer the ireer
Ii is from the attack of the chinch bug" We
are glad to hear of the great preparations now
being made by our farmers, generally, to take
advantage of the prospective pleasant weather
in blowing up their fields and sowing wheat.
As near as we can gather, there will be many
more acres planted to fall wheat this season
| than last.

The late rains, of course, have produced
high water, as was expected, and there has
been considerable excitement over At. The
streams have all been up to ''hsh-wdter mark"
and in some instances have oyerdown their
banks considerably. The Mulberry has been
chock-full OF '.scething currents" hich have
dc ne some damage. The bridge at Bavaria has
been under water for several days, and the APP
proaches thereto are about ruiHed.| Ii IS pos
sible that the bridge, also, will be in very
damaged condition by the time tie waters sub
side. Ii is strange, in fact. that the structure
was not carried away by the pressure OF he
waters. In the Bavaria locality, some of the
farmers were surrounded by water and fled
with their families to the hills. few miles
west of town the water came over from the
Mulberry into an old channel and flooded
many acres OF the country. Mr. James Chace
found the water surrounding him, and got his
family and most valuable effects into a wagon
for journey to the bluffs. He soon discover
cd. however. that the water was falling slowly
and ''unloaded." lie spent the night in anxi-

water. The Saline river has been very high,
but has not gone over its banks. that we can

that Ellsworth was flooded with water. and
following this came the report thai Lindsbers

think of =" getting little higher; for if the
latter report was 20 prove true the roofs CT

the merchants began to think that they had

Persons should bear in mind the necessity
of guarding against fires upon the prairieS.
The farmers have suffered losses enough this
year without experiencing others. There has
been more than the ordinary amount of hay
put up for their stock, and this was nece ssary
in consequence OF the failure of thc..corn crop.
If they lose their hay, they will be in very
bad condition. People should remember that
one spark of fire from 4 pipe or 4 discarded
cigar stump upon the prairie may be the re-
suit OF DESTROYING thousands of dollars worth
of food for the stock of this country. just at
present the prairics have been well moistened
by the rains, but a few hoursof sunshine may
render them as dry as ever. Be careful.

There is cellar adjoining billiard saloon
which had been dug without the knowledge OF
a certain country gentlman. 1t was dark,
