THUS far we have been Cypress
ed with the worst and most unpropi-
tious Spring weather, which we can
remember in the freaks of the wealth
er clerk, and thus far our planters
and farmers are thrown back fully
six weeks later than last season, and
it can be almost asserted, that hardly
three good blowing days in success
sion have turned up. But since the
morning of last Sabbath the weather
seems to have veered for the better
and the change is a remarkable and
delightful one. Since then up to the
hour which we write, no finer or more
,seasonable weather could be desired
and all nature seems to smile under
the new dispensation. During all
this time the river, already very
high, has gone up gradually, having
risen in the last AZ hours IL inches
But the rise is decreasing percepti
bly, as the weather is remaining fair
and we have no just fears of an over
flow. We have full nine feet bank

THE CATHOLIC FAIR.

Many of our fair friends, who have
at heart the interests of the Fair to
be held in the Town Hall on Wednes-
dav and Thursday, the 10Th and goth
of the present month, mildly and
gently complain to us that the TWO
Raffles, which they have deposited at
Ferguson schnack's to be filed are
progressing rather slowly to be sign
of encouragement to them. While
we are rather fearful this may appear
to them in that depressing light,
still we must remind them that this
should be no damper to them, but to
the contrary, should renew ten fold
their graceful and we'll meant ener-
gles in behalf of the good work they
have espoused. Let them ever be
mindful of the fact that the road to
success is always rough one, and if
they desire it to be an easy one they
must strew the daisies in advance OF
all their footsteps. Woman, when
aroused in a cause, and specially in
such one as are our fair friends,
should never despond and never per-
NIT the short word fail to mar their
vocabulary of good intents. The
times, dear ladies, though hard, are
yet propitious and beaming with un-
told fruits for you, and you should
not WELD an inch in your march to
the good will and purses of the gal
lantry of your Town and PARISH
Their hearts are in the right place,
always throbbing to the magic call OF
charity, will not refuse you the small
pittance of aid you ask of all OF them
alike. Courage, then, fair ones, and
let the three working weeks yet ahead
of you be so arranged, canvassed and
managed, strictly for the good work
and our word for it, victory viii
gracefully crown your most sanguint
expectations.

OUR GRANT CASE.

The case of the Grant Parish pris-
oners, which is and was from the
start emphatically ours and real
home one, a Rapides one, and one
which we have from its maiden Incl
piency worked and written for, has
at last been decided and decided IA
vorably to our people and our cause.
In another place we give briefcom-
pendulum of that decision, where it
can be perceived that we have gained
all We have SO long contended for
and that our long and arduous efforts
in behalf Of our rights, so long crush
ed by Federal bayonets and Federal
interference, have finally been &C.
corded US by the highest judicial tri-
bunal in the land.
We are surelyin no disposed mood
to crow too much over this matter,
for it was all along an almost sure
thing that we could but win, and we
can rest contented to permit our per-
petual and vindictive enemy to mil
dew in remorse over his final and
crushing defeat, and afford to enjoy
our restored rights in peace and sun,
shine. Our colored friends, who had
been used against us in this tyranny,
are equally gamers by this decision
with us, and so believing we can but
again offer them our hands of good
assistance and good fellowship, and
entreat them never again to stray
from our protecting folds and hunt
the false shade of false friends. The
whole concern is being unmasked
and as its hideous monstrosity ap
pears as we have always painted it
we can but congratulate all shades O
our people on it's happy and propi
tious termination.

MINE NovGoRoD FA1R.-The great
market of the eastern world has been
held at this junction of the Volga and
Olga rivers, in Russia, every sum
mer for hundred Of years. Here the
nations of Europe and Asia meet with
their products for trade. Cossack,
Chinese, Turk and Persian, meet the
German aud the Greek with every
variety of merchandise that mankind
employs, from sapphires to grind
stones, tea, opium, fur, food, tools
and fabrics, and last but not least,
medicines. J. C. Aver Co.'s cele-
brated remedies from America were
displayed in an elegant bazaar where
the Doctor himself might sometimes
be seen. They are known and taken
