Court CtslEtis0s.


George Wabnilz yesterday submitted
q petition, before Judge Cox, against j..
M. Radcliffe, for an injunction. The
plaintiff owns mill property on the Great
Miami river, in Crosby township, driven
by water obtained from dam built 80
years ago. The defendant recently built
q mill on the. other side Of the river, in
Colerain township, and obtained his
power in the same way. BY the recent
floods, and for other reasons, the plaintiff
alleges that the dam now needs repairs,
that defendant refused to make any re-
pairs, and by threats of violence pre-
vented the plaintiff from doing so; tnat
after the late f,od the plaintiff, to save
his property, went with force OF men
and material TO repair the damage; the
defendant. with his men, came and with
guns threatened to shoot the plaintiffs
men, SO that he was compelled to give
up the attempt to make any repairs. An
Injunction was asked to prevent the in-
terference OF the defendant.
Judge Cox allowed temporary injunc-
tion until further order, the bond being
fixed in the sum OF $500. George B. Hol-
lister appeared for the plaintiff.

Owing to the recent games played by
the Stars In which they have been SO
successful, great things were expected
yesterday in their game with the Brown
Stockings, of st. Louis, but the Fates
would not have it thus. The Stars must
play without making so many errors II
they intend 10 defeat one of the first pro-
fessional mines in the country. 1t seems
that the Stars care very little about beat
ing any club but those at home. They
can play an almost 1aultess game with
the Cincinnati Reds or the LudlOws, but
with the Chicagos or Browns they seem
to lose their nerve, or else they want to
show strangers how proficient they are
at muffing. The Stars did some good
batting, but the errors were too much tor
them. The following is the score by in-

Rice Culture in Louisiana.

The large yield of rice grown in this State
the past season demonstrates that Louisiana
will eventually become ue rice depot of
this country. A most remarkable and sue
cessful experiment in the culture of this
staple has been made the past season by
Messrs y. II. and A. j. Sypher on their
plantation in the parish of St. Mary. In
addition to their regular acreage of sugar,
these gentlemen cultivated part of their
place in white Carolina rice, of which they
made 800 barrels of the best grade ever
shipped to this city. This result was ac.
complished by improved modes of cultiya-
tion and the use of implements never be-
fore employed in this State.
The rice was planted on high instead of
low land, as has been customary heretofore.
1t was flooded by raising the water from the
bayou into canal by means of centrifugal
steam pump, the canal serving as rsae-
Voir from which the water was draw n a. re-
qu'sed! W Uourss this is morn expens v q
than the old mode of flooding from tbe
river, but it is also more reliable, as the
planter is not dependent upon the stage of
water in the river for @ constant supolv
which is the most important matter in rice
culture.
After the ground had been thoroughly
prepared the rice was planted with grain
driils' such as are in common use in the
North and West. The advantages derived
from the use of the drill are claimed TO be
very great. 1t does not require so much
seed as the old process of sowing broad.
CAST; ths rice is more easily kept clear of
weeds, and by not sowing go thick, the
mead and grain are larger and more perfect.
The crop was taken off with a grain
reaper, probably the first experiment of the
Kind in Louisiana. No little difficulty was
experienced before this reaper was made TO
work successfully, owing to the fact that it
was not adapted to the soft ground The
ingenuity OF Captain Sypher, who is a
thorough engineer and machinist, oyercame
this detsct, and after making some altera.
lions and improvements, its operation was
perfect. 1t cuts from eight TO ten acres Der
day-equal to the work Of thirty men under
the Old process of cutting with sickles.
| The threshing of this rice was done with
a shaker thresher, driven by steam power,
and more than one hundred barrels were
threshed and cleaned per day.
The success of the Messrs. Syphers will
| encourage many other rice planters to
adopt improved implements, and it will, no
doubt, be the beginning of revolution in
| this branch OF Industry. Too much credit I
can not be given them for the successful
manner in which they have carried out
| these experiments, which can not fail to
| prove benefit to tie entire rice planting
| interest of our State.

The national government furnished the
money to construct the railway connecting
the country of the Pacific with the northern
portion of the Union, which railway was
useful and beneficial to the whole Union,
and peculiarly, and in large decree ex-
clusively, beneficial to the States of the
North, and has the tendency of existing
alone to the prejudice of the interests of the
States Of the South. The people of the
North were unable without government aid
to construct the Northern road; much less
are the Southern people able now, or so far
as the distant future can be f0reseen, will
they be able without government aid to
construct railway with the necessary CON
nectiOns which shall link their destinies and

Major Alexander, arrived from Los

Eighth Cavalry crossed this morning, be-
fore his arrival, by Captain Randletts order,
Major Clendenin having lett for RinggOld

This was done in violation of orders given

Major Alexander reports large numbers

The affair may be summed up as follows:
The United States cavalry caught Mexi-
can cattle thieves crossing stolen cattle
Demand was made by the United States
officer on the Mexican authorities to deliver
up the cattle and thieves, which was not
done. The United States troops, being
ordered not to cross, remained on this bank,
while McEally, with Texas State troops,
crossed over and attempted to recapture
the cattle. The Mexicans, having had time,
drove McNally before them. Forty of tine
Eighth Cavalry crossed over contrary to
orders, and fought the Mexicans side by
side with McNslly's men until they were
obliged, by overwhelming numbers, to fall
back to this side. Four Mexicans were
