NEW ORLEANS, May %, 1877.
Gentlemen-During the past week our market
has continued strong, with q fair demand frem
the trade aud closes firm at quotations.
The rapid advance developed heavy specula-
tive demand, and higher quotations are mainly
due to purchases made in hopes OF reali zipg
profit from sill further advance. The crop at
this point is almost entirely disposed of, hencs
prices will continue t. rule high, as the quantity to

height, in fact, too high to recommend to any
who have the option account of location or
freights) of operating IN either this or the
Charleston market.
Our advices from our Charleston house show
their quotations, compared with ours, to be from
20 to 10 in buyers favor.
The new crop gives promise OF good yield, but
on account OF cold weather, will be from two to
three weeks later than last season. Freights are
ruling low.

w. j. McClatclIy furnishes the following in
regarl to the grasshoppers: When they first
come in the spring and are flying about then is
a good time to kill them one killed then is equal
to 1000 after they hatch, and another good
plan to get rid of them is to hunt up broods OF
them which can be found in the latter part OF
June, and first days in July and destroy them
in the fields. Large numbers of them occupy
a very small space. They are very small and
hop about like hcas, and appear not to desire to
scatter and then can be crushed with little trou-
ble They did not damage him much after they
commenced flying. They come in four or five
different squads, and those that did him the
most harm Matched in clover, after then they
came in droves from wheat and oat stubble
field. burned great many and still they
came Some persons think they are hatch'd
from bug, but they evidently come from the
flying grasshoppers.

ACW ORTIZ AFFAIRS.

A DAsTARDLY ATTEMPT AT AssAssINA-
TON On last Saturday night, in about eight
miles of Acworth some villain perretrated a
diabolical deed. While Mr. Sanford and wife
were eating supper, some person slipped up t"
the house, and evid 4niy shot at Mrs Sanford,
and from some cause Mr.. Sanford raised his
hand the ball struck it aud passed through and
lodged in the forehead of his wife. What is
strange she procured the trumpet and blowed
it for some time before she found that she was
hurt. She doubtless would have been killed
instantly If the force Of the ball had not been
lessen.d by striking the hand of her husband
to find the ball, which passed through the SKULL
at last accounts. Ii is a serious hurt, but she
does not complain of the wound. As 10 who
did the deed no one knows, but parties are sns-
picioned, and we hope the guilty may be found
out and made to suffer to the extent Of the law.
Our merchants appear to be doing good
business Notwithstanding the dull times. A
bachelor merchant speaks Of going on visit to
Texas and the report has caused the girls to
speak of wearing mourning. They are opposed
to his leaving as the chances are that he will
not will return bachelor.
Mr.. Thompson Lawhon and Miss Sale
Nichols were married last Thursday evening

and happiness be theirs. ANON.

A-LAKE OF FISH.
And a Spring of Mineral Water.

WE had occasionto visit Mai VT WINS
fish pond few days ago. situated near his res
idence in this city. The swampy ground where
once unsightly bushes and biiaIs grew, is now
clear. beautiful lake Of water, banked in sub
stantially, giving a broad and extensive sheet
OF water, with depth of ten feet. In Its con-
strucon, the excavation extended until all the
mari and black dirt was taken out until a bed
of gravel was struck, from which numerous
springs of water gushed up, supplying sbu'
dance of uufailing streams inside of the lake.
On either side is a hard, level walk, while
bitches on the outer edge is arranged as to
convey eff rain water, thus keeping out anything
that would muddy or fill up the lake. Major
VIM has stocked it with perch, suckers and
eat fish. and already such rapid growth and
propagation has been made that the lake is
literally tteming with the fnny Tube of various
sizes We observed numerous bright perch,
as a large as mans hand, dart simultaneously
ia the surface of the water after floating crumbs
Of bread thrown in. splashing the water into
ripping waveets, securing the tempting prizes
and retiring to their invisible home in the deep
The construction of the lake cost Maj. Wmn

to be had from its liquid depths for the trouble

TleminerAl spring discovered near the lake
is said to be impregnated with sulphur and
iron and is attracting a number of visitors
daily. We learn that it is the intention of Mayor
Denmead, in behalf of the city, to avail himself
of the proff.red literally of Maj Wim. and
fix up the spring in suitable style for the ae-
commodaion Of The public and as a pleasant re
sort for summer vi.i'ors. Probably neat en-
closure will be made aud summer house
erected,
