As to our correspondent query, can
a man without capital make any clear
money working on sugar plantations?
we again say. yes-more money than
with any other crop or In any other
country. A knowledge of cane culture
is easily gained. the crop is worked
much like corn, and Is usually "laid
by" or cultivation finished before
the hottest weather, when
those with mechanical knowledge,
like these two gentlemen, can get
work making repairs about the sugar
house and the others in the woods cut
ting fuel. Come on, then-come by
thousands-for we have millions Of acres
of the richest land in the world that

Of Louisiana cast their vote. Judge
Levissee, it has been charged, did not
sign the certificate. He denies this re-
port. 1t was, however, asserted to day
most positively, by one who claims to
be familiar with the whole proceedings,
that two OF the Electors voted blank on
that occasion, and that their names
were forged. He says that Packard
was acquainted with this fact, and
that ID. Conquest Clarke, Private
Secretary Of Kellogg, will have
TO testify to 1t under oath. He declines
to give the two names, but predicts that
the fact will be developed in the present
prosecution. In reference to the al
legged proceedings against Sherman and
others OF the visiting statesmen, it is
asserted that when the Supervisor of
Registration for the parish Of East Felt
ciana was asked about the amount of
bulldozing done by the Democrats, he
replied that he did not believe over fifty
or seventy-five negroes had been intimi-
dated in the whole parish. To be on
the safe side, the Republican authori-
ties fixed the number at eighty, and
this the supervisor signed. When he
next saw the paper he observed that the
number had been raised to 1900, and it
is claimed there are parties ready TO
testify that Sherman was q knowing

plantation in the State. A mechanic

Price of cane in the field varies &C.
cording to proximity to the sugar-min.
Small cultivators, having no sugar
houses, can always readily sell their
crops to the nearest sugar planter at
from $40 to $75 an acre, according to
''stand" Of the crop. However, new
and more just system of purchasing
