NAT1cK, Sept. "a general strike has been
inaugurated among the workmen at all the

eight hundred employees being idle. En-

made some months since on account of dull

We clip the following paragraphs from the
New Iberia (A.takapvs) Sugar Bo,ol, of the
I'd inst:
y Cotton-In recent ride through por-
tons of the parishes of lafayette, st. Martin
and Iberia, we observed that cotton picking
was in progress on many of the plantations.
Some were quite white with the feecy staple,
and in a. few weeks more the shipments will
doubtless be large
From an intelligent cotton planter of st.
Martin, who has made close observations of
the effect of the late rains upon that crop, we
learn that he has found that about one-ffth of
the bolls, forms and flowers have fallen off;
but as the stalks were unusually full of these,
he thinks the crop will yet be large one,
unless we should have resumption and con-
tinuance of rains.
The acreage of cotton having been largely
increased, the probability is that the Alta
kap.s parishes will this season produce as
much3 of the feecy staple as can be picked
out before the winter rains set in.
The Sugar Crop.-We learn from gentle
men who have very recently travelled extern
svely throughout the sugar district that the
cane crop has not been better for many years
past The recent rains have been decidedly
beneficial to that plant, and the growth is
very large for the season. With two more
months tor growing and maturity, we feel
confident the result will equal the most san
guine expectations of planters.
Corn Crop.-An abundance of the new crop
of corn has already been offered in our mar
ket at Is cents per barrel, and some has sold,
we are told, as low as 65 cents per barrel.
Shooting Afan.-As we 60 to press, we
hear the distressing news that on Sunday last,
at Abbeville, Capt. F. Feray shot and serious
" wounded Mr. Lastie Broussard. The
nature of the difficulty between them we have
not learned, but it is feared that Mr. Brous-
sard will die from his injuries Two shots
took effect in one of his legs, SCATTERING the
knee joint, which will necessarily compel am
putatlon.
We are panied to hear this accident to so
worthy young gentleman.

PIGEON.POPPLNG AT THE CRESCENT
CITY RIFLE CLUB.

Several of our best amateur sportsmen met
yesterday evening on the grounds Of the
Crescent City Rifle Club for the purpose of
testing their relative merits as pigeon shoot.
ers. The traps were set at distance Of
twenty-five feet, and the sportsmen allowed
an area of eighty feet in which their birds
should fall to count. Each contestant was
allowed twelve birds, and some lively shoot
ing was witnessed by visitors, although many
of the birds were very 10th to take the wing,
and had to be scared up by the attendants
before the sportsmen could get a fine chance
at them.
The palm was at length awarded to Mr.. E.
T. Manning, who only lost one bird. Mr..
Harry Da Ponte did some excellent shooting
and was for long time looked upon as GER
tain of winning the match, but towards the
end of the match the referee decided against
him on challenge and he was thrown back
to second position. 1t was rumored on the
ground that there would be private match
between these two gentlemen in order to de-
fnitely decide which is the better pigeon
shooter. Altogether the match was very sue
cessful one and will in all probability give
rise to others very soon.

A Democratic City Solicitor
Elected.

Quite a sensation was created last eve
ming by the report that the City Councii
had elected Walter Cummins, ESQ., CluY
Solicitor. 1t had been whispered around
that Charles G. Rumford, Esq, who had
been elected on I thursday night, had de-
clined to serve but there had been
nothing authoritatively printed on the
subiect. Yesterday meeting OF Councii
was quietly convened, and an election
held resulting as stated. 1t is true the
hall bell was rung. but most people
Thought it was false alarm OF hre. AS
GOOD fortune would have it all the Dem
ocrats were IN their seats and united on
a candidate but they only numbered
eiqht while their opponents numbered
elersn. But the battle is not always 10
the strong. Three ballots were had oh
the first, three votes were tailed Tor Wm'
C. Spruance, Esq, seven for Benz Nellds'
ESQ. and eight for Walter Cummins, Esq
The former was the nominee OF the In
dependents, the second the nominee Oh
the Ring, and the latter the Democratic
candidate. On the second ballot, MIR
Nield's vote was increased to eight. Or
the third ballot the old Ring determined
not to be drilled into submission by only
three members of their party, and foul
Republican votes were cast for Mr.. Cum
minis. This ballot showed II votes fol
Mr.. Cummins, for Mr.. Nields, and ) fo'
Mr.. Spruance. The members who vote(
for Mr.. Cummins showed courage an'
decision that deserves praise, and w
congratulate them for their manly am
sensible action. Mr.. Cummins, we hope
in the care and attention which he vii
give to the office, will never make ther
regret the votes they cast. He is young
but highly educated and close observe
of events. He will discharge the dutie
with credit to himself and an eye singl
to the interests Of the city.

BUTLER RIGHT IN ONE PARTICULAR
Butler states in his last letter, IN which
le referred to the currency, that at pre-
sent all property except bonds and mort
cages ia depreciating, and they are ap-
preciating in the same ratio. Ihls Is a
matter Of fact; but it did not take any
great deal of sagacity to discover 1t
Eye-y man who held government BOND
or mortgage knew that 1T would purchase
a better property last year than the year
before. and better one this year than
last year. But the difficulty in eifecting
loans or purchases with mortgages Is
much greater than with bonds. The lat
ter is easier used as collateral, and may
he disposed of without material loss,
but mortgages are rated when sold or e1-
changed nearly as much below paper as
paper is below gold.'
The way to specie payments Is not
solely in the contraction OF the currency
With our present banking and currency
svstem we will never get down to gold
basis by that road. The only true way
toreach a solid currency is to reduce the
national expenses. The sooner we begin
this work, and the faster we discharge
orr Indebtedness the quicker will we be
able to redeem our notes and be able tc
demand gold in exchange for paper. Nc
one would be troubled with gold II he
could get paper that was as good. If We
were not in debt, and had not million
of gold in the country, our promise OF
paper to pay in gold would be preferred
to the gold itself. Because people woult
have confidence that we were able t.
make good our promise. This is not tn
case at present. Those who have gol'
to loan know that circumstances may a
any time arise that may render US who'll
unable to pay, either notes or bonds Il
gold. And the disposition on the part
the President to secure third teri
makes this want of confidence all tn
stronger. He is a man of war; a DARN
adventurer; owes all he has 10 adven
ture, and is evidently destitute Of tn
great moral attributes which distinguis
the patriotic statesman. And he may a
any time create war with Mckee, Q
perhaps resurrect rebellion in order tina
his partizans may involve the country t
retain his services. We only throw ou
an inkling Of the possible circumstances
there are many others that will sugges
themselves, showing that under contil
gencies that may arise the national tire;
sury may he bankrupted. If the peop
are wise they will pause in their extra'
agance. Reform is needed, also in Stat
and municipal as well as in national e:
penditures.
