several large drifts still lie gu the north side of
the foot hills. By climbing up the m ouulaius
short distance hundreds Of acres OF snow may
be seen, varying from one to twenty feet in
depth. 1t is most beautiful sight to behold,
to climb the mountains a mile or so from here,
and take look back among the ranges and see
the vast heap Of snow, with the bright sun shin.

EDITOR REPUBLICANS:
Last night, while the colored brass band
of St. Martinsville were occupied in their
evening re petltion, q committee OF three
individuals from the Democratic party
waited upon them and psremptorily ordered
them to discontinue their exercises.
It seems that q ratification rejoicing over
the nominations at Baton Rouge was in
progress, with booming of cannon and
music, and that these gentlemen had been
INDUCING frequently in toasts IN honor OF
the nominees.
Their order not being complied with, they
Immediately took their cannon IN front OF
the hall. where the brass bands had as
sembied and. after loading the same with
four pounds of spikes, were on the point OF
bombarding, when the timely arrival OF the
mayor of the town put an end to the whole
affair, which otherwise might have resulted
in serious consequences.
Ne doubt that the whole difficulty was
occasioned By the high spirits pervading
the minds of the above individuals, and that
tie community were entirely unconcerned;
but vet such occurrences an not but result
in exciting the passions OF men, and should
be deplored, especially at this present time,
when it should be the aim OF all to conduct
this campaign in sucn way. so as not to
affect the material interests Of our State.
The crops in our locality are looking re-
markably well, both cotton and cane; and
an estimate of a full crop is placed by the
ma jority of the planters. Corn 10 abundant.
ana will produce large yield.
Yours. respectfully.
