Crops in the Parishes,

Hon. Cain Sartain writes from the parish
OF Carroll that the cotton crop there is very
promising. He says he has thirty acres of
cotton growing, which ia as fine as ary
cotton ever seen by him at this season of
the year. His plants have now eight
leaves, and by the middle of June will
have forms. Mr.. Sartain is confident the
present year, so far as his district is con-
cerned, will show an excellent yield of the
great staple upon which so much depends.
In this there Is ray of sunshine. One fair
crop Is worth any amount of politics, and a
busy season in the country may lead away
from the city many able laborers " no stay
here and complain Of nothing to do.
There are also encouraging reports in
other parishes concerning the rice crop
We have just received at the hands Of Mr..
W. l. Moffitt, fine specimen of the rice
now growing in the parish of St. Charles
1t is from the plantation of Ex-Governor
Hahn, and is sample of 400 acres of
rice growing on the Governors land
The stalks shown us measure thirty eight
inches in height, and the prospects are good
for a f ne crop.
Court Items.

His advent was hailed with pleasure by

he would never get sick again.
