"One thing is quite noticeable"
says the Carroll Conservative, "and
this is that laborers are making their
crops this year with less expense,
Notwithstanding the increased cost
of rations, than for any year here
tofore. They seem to have got en-.
ii ely over their craving for WHISKY
and sardines and their desire to
have a merchant
Such is the unanimous opinion of
the country press. 1t has already
been shown that the laborers of this
State are doing more work and rails
ing more cotton and sugar to the
hand than ever before, even in ante.
bellum days. If, in addition to this,
hard time have made them economi-
cal, the success of planters and la
borers ought to be assured. The
character of labor in Louisiana is
yearly improving, and it is to this
more than anything else that our
increased crops of late years have
been owing.
A few years ago, a negro seldom
worked on the same place two seas
ons in succession, deeming this
sort of relic of slavery and badge of
servitude. Now, on the other hand,
when he gets good place, he set

The consequence of this has been

The reform gun has missed fire
again in the appointment of James
E. Anderson, of Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Louisiana, as United States
Consul at Funchal, Madeira Islands.
This is the Anderson, if we are not
mistaken as to his identity, who
was kicked out of Lancaster print
ing office some years ago for prOpos
ing to mingle Democratic with Re-
publican tickets before their distri
button to the election districts. Last
fall he turned up as a willing tool of
Kellogg in Louisiana, and was made
Supervisor of Registration in East
Feliciana, his duty being to prevent
the negroes from voting in order
that the vote of that parish, which
was sure to go Democratic, might
be thrown out by the Returning
Board. The Lancaster Lntelligen,
GER, which has followed Anderson's
track pretty closely, says he was in
that city few days ago, admitting
that Tilden carried Louisiana and
boasting that he was going to Wash
ingtOn to demand Consulate as
the reward of his services, with the
added threat that he had papers in
his possession that would be danger.

Some Interesting statistics are
furnished by the European press
respecting the draining of the Zuy-
der Zee. A dam forty kilometres
(twenty-four and three quarter
miles, long, fifty metres broad at it's
base and one and one half metres
above the usual level of high water.
is to be carried across the gulf.
Upon this will be erected pumping
engines capable of discharging l.
716,0OO,OOO gallons day. Estimat-
ing the average depth of the gulf
at about four and one half metres. it
will take steady pumping for six
teen years to empty the Enclosure.

acres now under water is estimated
at about $4,000, 900. 1t is conf

LINCOLNSHIRE SHEEP.-Judea
Fielding Scott, of Mahomet ILL.,, who
has for some time been engaged in
breeding Lincolnshire sheep, has
shown us some samples of wool
taken from some of his yearlings,
which for fneness and length of
fibre, are certainly very fine. The
idea that this bred of sheep will not
stand our variable climate, is being
rapidly negatived by the judges
experience. The samples of wool
shown were taken from animals
which had received no more than
ordinary care. One yearling, weigh
ed few days ago, pulled down the
scale at 220 pounds. His wool aver
ages fifteen inches in length, and
resembles the fleece of the Cash
mere goat more than anything else
we can compare it WITH Cham
paign Gazette.
