The weather for some weeks past has been
very ,infavorable for the cane crop. The
continual warmth has caused the cane to
grow and retain Its verdancy to an un-
usually late period. And now we have
reached the commencement OF the grinding
season with heavy growth Of unripe ahd
still growing cane, which will not ripen and
mature 30 as TO be fit for grinding until we
have cool and braeing weather. Several PLAN
ters who have begun grinding had to aban-
don IL on account Of the small product of
aaocharine In the juice and the impossibility
Of elfecting granulation. This backward con-
lliti0n produces great anxiety among the
planters lest they be caught with an early
frost or freeze, such as overlook them last
year. which will compel them 10 apply a large
portion OF their labor to winrowing AN ex-
pengive process which depreciates the value
and productiveness OF the cane. These un-
toward circumstances are somewhat dishear
t9ning to our planters, but we have little
fear that they will relax their energies to over
tonne them and make the best out of their
valuable staple.
The cotton crop has suffered even more
than the cane. The weather has been unfa-
vorable and the worms which put In an carly
appearance have made said havoc. The fa-
vorab1e accounts Of last summer must now be
largely discounted; indeed, 30 far as we can
learn the cotton crop has been out off fully

ended In that portion of Mississippi at least.
We s,ippose The Times Will be extremely sorry
TO hear this, because, by putting an end to
cotton stealing, the Adams county farmers
have put an end to the Times outrages. These
seemed to work together; the greater the
theft OF cotton the greater the number Of
Times outrages on innocent negroes, whose
only offense was small bag Of seed cotton.
We shall probably have let-up on outrages
now from our neighbor on Camp street, be-
cause the material for these outrages is gone,
some locked up In jail, the others left for
other parts

"Never has there been known such q stealage
ofseed cotton, " is the cry from every portion of
this State and Mississippi. The seed cotton
robbers drive to the cotton fields with half a
dozen wagons and go Off with them filled
with their spoils This annoyance has grown
so great that every parish jury has passed
the most stringent laws to prevent such
traffic without, however, accomplishing
much good
This stealage grew so great In Adams coun-
~, Mississippi, few weeks ago, that the
planters Of that county met and organized
themselves into protective associations for
tions have met with success beyond the
iondest hopes of those who originated them.
"A regular watch is kept on all the seed cotton
stores, and several persons engaged in this
illicit trade have been arrested and convicted.
These convictions have produced terror
among the cotton thieves, and many OF them,
it is said, have given up the business as dam
gerous A vigilant patrol is, nevertheless,
still kept up, and the watchfulness of the
planters is so great, that 1t is believed that,
as far as Adams county is concerned, this il
legal seed cotton traffic Is eifectually broken

The Adams county movement has been so
successful that several other Mississippi
counties propose to initiate it, and are now
organizing protective associations for patrol
duty and for the prosecution and conviction OF

Reputation seems to be working In q very
promising manner In the Far West. The ma
jority OF the Kansas towns and counties have
shufiied off their debts and now Nebraska
City fellows In their footsteps The showing
Of the Mayor and City Council OF that small
but Interesting burgh is indeed unpromising.
The municipal indebtedness is $400,o on a
total assessment Of st,ooOooo, or 40 per cent
III the entire valuation of the city.
In an address to the holders of Nebraska
City bonds, the mayor and city council lay
all the blame for the bad condition Of the
town finances not on the town officials, but on
the grasshoppers, (which terrible visitation"
say they, has for several years almost en-
tlrely destroyed the products OF the country
tributary To the city, In consequence of which
twill be unable to pay Its immense muni-
clpal debt In full" A good idea, sweet re-
venge this throwing the moral response
biiity for the Reputation they propose on the
grasshoppers.
Tho appeal of the council of Nebraska City
10 the unfortunate holders of the bonds Of
that city Is somewhat threatening. They
offer fifty cents on the dollar.
Z II the hondholders refuse this" say they,
sAthey are likely to get little or nothing,
Nearly every city In the entire West Is hope
lessly In debt. All are moving for compro-
mise. III they fail In that, the next thing will

IN the feeling OF a majority Of the people. The
majority rules, and the sentiment is 'compro-
mise or repudiate.' We wish 1t were other
wise: hut 1t is not, and creditors may as well
know the truth at once"
It Is probable that the New York bondhold-
ers will now begin to thoroughly appreciate
the damage and ruin wrought by the grass
hoppers.

The above observations are In the main cor
rect. The city papers, however, give moro
attention to country interests thai, the senti-
mel credits them with; but 1t Is none the less
true that Ii Is the parish paper which looks
fully and especially after the home interests
OF Its people. A well edited country paper is
OF Invaluable service TO community, and
every citizen OF the parish should subscribe
Tor It and pay for 1t in advance before he

as our live country exchanges. They give us
the class Of intelligence which Is OF most Inn
portance to the public and through their col
unlils we keep en- rapport with the people Of

Among the country papers of Louisiana
there are d number conducted with intel

pers we always know represent and influence
the community in which they are printed,
and we attach great value TO their articles.
There are others which are almost a disgrace
to their parishes and deserve no support.
They are horribly printed; they contain less
matter than an apprentice could set In two
days, and they never furnish us with an in
telligent opinion or an item of local news. A
live, energetic country editor does more for
his community. and general gets less payfor
It, than any other citizen Of { eparish or coun-

The New York Herald. which Is noted for its
bitter warfare on the Mormons and Mormon.
ism, seems to think that the proceedingsof the
great Utah conference, held about ten days
ago, give promise of more satisfactory ad.
ministration OF Mormon affairs = secular
and religious--than has been seen for many
years. There is no reason, 1t thinks, In view
OF that conference, to apprehend an early dis.
solution OF Mormonism; on the contrary, the
probabilities are that, through the zeal now
being shown by the leaders of the church. its
strength and numbers will be greatly in.
creased In the next few years, and the church
itself do far more work than was done in the
last ten years of Brigham's life.
The great conference was held October @,
and consisted of all the dignitaries OF Nor
monism, the twelve apostles, the seventies,
the priests, teachers and deacons Of the Mel
chisedec and Aaronic orders of priesthood,
the chief patriarch, high priests and bishops,
making altogether an assembly of over 5000
persons. The action Of this conference was
to give the control of the church to the twelve
apostles, with Taylor ht their head. The
apostles, on their part, prmised to render an
account OF the finances Of the church twice q
year, thing never done by Brigham, and to
report all their acts to the people for their
approval.
The proceedings Of this conference were
harmonious and earnest throughout, and the
apostles evidently succeeded in their effort to
convince the Mormons of their honesty of
purpose, and also in reviving the church's
faith in the salvation of the world through
Mormonism. Everything, in fine, betokened
a revival Of the enthusiasm and fervor of the
early days when Smith was prophet.
So aroused was this religious enthusiasm
that the story told by the apostles Of their
having conversed with God was everywhere
accepted as the truth and as a proof Of
more promising days ahead for the church.
One of the apostles, Woodruff, was, at the
same time, interviewed by several Thousand
spirits, among whom were all the signers of
the Declaration Of Independence, and all the
Presidents of the United States but two, who
admitted their religious errors on earth, and
begged, although dead, to be now baptised,
and admitted into the Church of Latter Day
Saints privilege which was, of course, ac-
corded them.
The Herald seems to see in these wild sto-
ries circulated by the apostles desire on the
part Of the leaders to reawake the religious
feelings of the Mormons; and in the fact that
they are accepted in good faith by the people
a proof that they have succeeded therein.
1t expects, therefore, to see great effort
made to win converts to Mormonism and to
create revival within the church that will
make it as strong and potent as it was before
and Gentiles disturbed it's harmony
The days of Mormonism are far from ended.
The great conference meets again April 6.
