NATURES TRIUMPH Nature. in her
luxuriance, has clothed the hills and the
daies with herb and shrub, whose occult
natures merely require the earnest appli-
cation of the scientific and inquiring mind
to reveal their curative properties, for in
the vegetable world kindly providence
has placed healing for all nations. The
only specifics for any disease yet discovered
are vegetable IN their nature, and while
quinine has been accepted as the only re
medy for one class. the extract Of the Blu
chu plant is rapidly taking its place as soy
ereign remedy for other of those ills afflict
humanity. The type of disease to which
it is remedial is a broad one, and its mani
festauons are legion, but it may be started
in general terms that all diseases of the
urinary organs, whether caused by climate,
rregularity, or selt-generated, submit at
once to the operation of its power Helm
bold s Buchu for all such complaints, is the
result of long research, and is acknowledge
ed superior to all other preparations.

IL months and days.
Mourn not. dear friend, in anguish wild
That God kath claimed thy oherub child
Mourn not for her who. early blsst,
Hath found 10 heaven eternal rest
Kind Heaven bestowed the treasure rare,
Thy love to win, thy home to share;
And then recalled it to the skies,
That there thy heart should also rise.
see'st thou her form by night, in dreamsi
By Gay. VIXEN sunlight brightly beamst
Or when the twilighI's lingering rAy
Soothes to repose at close of day,
She comes, pc hsps, in angel guirc.
To dry the tears that dim thine eyes;
Her holy mipsion now may DO
To watch and guard thee constantly.
Let holy thoughts thy soul sustsin.
And thou wilt learn to smile again,
Meekly thy treasure to resign
To Heavenly ARE and love divine
aeemeth 1t vain to speak Of peace,
Or bid n mothers anguish ceasei
Whom death hath robbed her of her own
And the torn heart feels sad and lonei
Like calling to the winds, in vain,
Their muurnful music to restrain;
Or bidding oceans wont rous roar
To Join in natures song no morei
But He who bade the tempssts cease.
And to the wild waves Whispered Peace"
Can still the tempest Of the soul
And make Its waters cal mly roll.
Nay time with " healiD on its wing"
Subdue and soothe Affections sting,
Kind Heaven thy heart from grief restore,
And give thee hope and peace once more.

GAPTHRE 0F PLEVNA,

Plevna has fallen into the hands
of the victorious Russians. On the
9th inst, Osman Pasha made sortie
in the direction of Widdin with his
entire army, and fought with desper-
ate valor to break through the enc
mics lines. He was, however, sur
rounded by an overwhelming force,
and after being himself wounded, sur
rendered Internationally to the
Car. The fall of this stronghold is
the greatest reverse which the Turks
have yet experienced, and it is not
probable that they can much longer
resist the triumphal, onward march
of the Muscovite hosts unless other
European powers join the contest.

THE COTTON CROP.

The November cotton crop report
of the Agricultural Department con-
taiDs the following paragraph rela-
tive to Louisiana
From twenty-eight parishes we have fifty
answers, average date Dec. III. weather
has been much less favorable than for same
month last year. Picking has been slow,
two-thirds Of the crop reported gathered at
the date of our replies, and 1t is estimated
that picking will not be completed before
18th January. The yield in the large river
parishes will be twenty Aye to thirty-hye
Der cent. greater than last year, while IN 9TH
er portions of the State 2 decrease OF ten to
thirty-five per cent. is reported. We estl-
mate the decrease for the State at seven per
ceut. About forty-six per. cent OF the crop
has been marketed. All our correspon-
dents complain of toe much rain.
This indicates much smaller falling
off in the crop than We have been
led to expect from the reports OF
newspapers published in the cotton
parishes. The ravages of worms and
storms must have been considerably
exaggerated by these authorities, or
the correspondents of the Agricultural
Department have given too roseate
view of the situation.

Mortimer Carr, Speaker of the
Louisiana House of Representatives
during the Warmoth regime, was ac-
quilted of one of the charges of for
gerry pending against him in connec-
ton with the crooked operations of
the notorious firm of Carr & Laun,
wildcat cotton brokers. But the ex-
Speaker is not out of the woods by a
long jump, for not only must he pass
the ordeal of several other accusations
of forgery, but to these has been
added a charge that he procured the
bribing of the jury that rendered the
verdict of acquittal. A man named
Isaac A. Abbott has been arrested for
acting as Carr's agent in the matter.
Eugene Lusson, formerly a resident
of Donaldsonville, and of fragrant
memory in this locality, was foreman
of the jury.

A GREAT SHOW COMING. The ar
rival of w. w. Coles New and Great
est Show on Earth, comprising circus,
menagerie, museum, aquarium and
trained animal exposition of wonders,
on Monday next, will attract general
attention here. This exhibition is
highly spoken of along the routes
which it has travelled. The name of
w. W. Cole is of itself tower of
strength. The menagerie and zoolog-
zeal collection is said to be very COM
plete, having large variety of very
rare wild beasts, some of which have
never before been on exhibition in
America, while the circus hippo
drome department is represented by
the very best artists in their profess
sion. We commend this grand ex-
hibition as worthy of a large patron
age.
