Weather and Crops.

At this present writing (Thursday,
July 5th), the weather is hot, dry and
disasrccable. The anxious farmer
vainly waits for a refreshing shower,
hopes from day to day that his pray
crs will be heard, and that he will be
blessed with seasonahle rains, but
like other earthly affairs beyond the
control of mortalS, the shower cometh
not, and hope is deferred to make the
heart sick.
The highest range Of the mercury
for this month thus far has been ~
degrees in the shade. This height
on the second and thnd; on the time
honorca Fourth, tho highest mark
was 03o. We should not complain of
this, for in all human probability
there is in store for rs hotter weather
than this. But some people will COM
plain. no matter what kind Of weather
we have.
The present condition Of the c,op
is reported from all sections Of the
parish as bonus, mclior, optimus, (good,
better, bcst.) No planter says he has
mean or "sorry" crop, but if asked
as to it's condition, he replies chat it
is good.
In some localities We hear of dam
age to the cotton, from the boil worm,
but it really amounts to nothing.
Others say the plant is making "too
much weed" but this is BY no means
general, and is confined to a few spots
on certain plantations.
Others hcvc seen tho eatcrpilfars
in alarming numbc.s, but on inquiry
it turns out that they have only seen
4 few "forcrunncrs" as tlcy are called;
consequently no serious damage is ap-
pretended from this quarter.
All things considered we have the
prospect of gathering the largest crop

duced in this parish since-well, as

What is to be done with the seventy
or more cadets who will probably Sradu-
late ont of tho class of '76! That is
!uurstion which troubles many of the lads
lin view of the present feeling OF Con-
yrpss toward tho army. Some OF the
!rlass, conversing together quietly to-day,
broke out of the rules of the academy by
1sucakiny ,isrcspectfully of Congress and
salso of President Hayes. The latter they
3coudemn for having continued to make
appointments to the army up to as late
has the middle of April, thus leaving at
I he present time only 46 vacancies, SO
athat about 20 of the new-tle'lged second
will he left unattached. The
Graduates have to enter whichever branch
3of the service they are appointed to by
. the President as commandments OF
the army ; but as a matter OF fact, their
81 tastes are consulted to a considerable
extent. Each sends in an application for
Hscrvicc in whichever branch he prefers,
land, when it is consistent with the state
= of tho army, these preferences are con-
: suited. In the academy the branches. as
a rule, stand in the order of engineers,
ARTILLERY, cavalry and infantry. 1t is
8customary for the academic staff to re-
> commend three or four who graduate at
the head of their class for positions in
the engineer class, and as the present
: class is the largest for many years, pro
badly six will he recommended. Among
these tho first will probably DO Cadet
k4Back, adiutant of the corps, who stands
at the head of the class, and who has
r thus far passed an almost unprecedented
" GOOD examination. There are how
ever, only three vacancies in the engi
necr corps at present, and promotion il
