The eldest child was born in England and
all the others in Pennsylvania, where this
worthy couple resided for over forty years,
Only three Of their children, Mrs. HI. H.
Smith, Mis-. j. NJ. Fogerty and Mr.. G. Ri

her little son, three years Of age, who came
from ,Wilkesbs,ie, Penn, 10 be present on
this &C ,asion. Thus four generations at
tended the golden wedding. The father OF
Mrs. RidaM is also still living in New Jer-
sey. The bride and groom, after their fifty
years of welded life, are spright!y and joy
GUS and seem as happy as when in youth
they plightcd their VOWS to each other and
started on the journey Of life together. Mr..
and Mrs. Rida!l have been all their lives
great lovers of music AMI still retain not
only their love of song but their voices in a
remarkable degree, and sang last evening
SEVERAL excellent pieces to the delight Of the
company.
The gu, sts, numbering about forty per
sons, we'll represented the staid and sub

Sioux CITY June 1G;, 1873.
Editors Hfess 4 Dakosaians:
. Being twenty-four hours from Yankton j
occurred to M that I might with prophet,
tell you of the things I have seen ant
heard.
Along the valley between Yankton and
this city the wheat outlook was never bet
tel, il as good, while the corn though small
will make a good yield, provided the season
is propitious from now on. Altogether THE
crop outlook was never better.
The washout at. Vermillion has caused
Dakota Southern folks a gooddeal Of trouble
and expense. though as fast as the river has
encroached they have moved the track back,
until snow it seems entirely safe and if the
water recedes there will probably be no
more trouble this season. The road is in
good condition and the business encourage
ing.
Mr.. C. G. Wicker has just returned from
New York, and in conversation with him
yesterday I learned that the extension of
the Pembina road to Beloit and Canton,
this season, is about reduced to a certainty.
Mr.. E. E. Carpenter, who left here y%ester-
day, has the contract for the grading from
Caliope to Beloit, % miles, and the work is
to be done inrthe next 60 days. The road
is already graded Is miles beyond Portland
vile, which with the % now to be graded
will make an extension of 81 miles and if
Nj. Wicker succeeds in getting the road
completed to Beloit, this season, he will
confer ir calculable benefits on the people of
the Sioux valley. And as it will only
twenty miles more TO take it to
Sioux Falls, that extension will in all pro-
be made next year. Certainly the
outlook for the country along the Big Sioux
IS most promising. 3
Sioux City shares with Yankton and
,ther communities the depression caused by
Excessive rains and bad roads, and still q
,ood deal of business is being done here.

OBJECT OF THE LOAN.

During tho crisis which followed the war Of
secession and which weighed so heavily on the
Diocese, of New Orleans assumed Iiabjjit les
which they have determined to liGuidata, In
the past year a better state of affairs doomed m
improvement will increase as the rate OF inter.
es1 claimed by it's creditors is Isssened.
Inc. conventional rate, In Louisiana, Is too
hlgh for II religious society tho revenues of
which, though entirely secure are nevertbeless
limited, Tor such society cannot look for
in speculations altogether inconsistent with tia
mission OF benevolence and charity.
therefore 1t Is not with q view Of creating a
new debt that this loan Is negotiated but in or
der to unity and consolidate anterior liabilities
t, obtain their gradual and regular extinc-
Diocese. and without endangering The cR b. rnS
property, although affecting it. Such is the
pan positively approved by bis Holiness Plus

As corporation legally instituted, It enioys

FERTILIZERS,
SUBSTANCE OF FERTILIZERS

The multitude Of experiments made to as
certain the action Of plants elements, both in
Europe and America, shows cOncIusveIv that
the most efficient of fertilizers is that which
is a mixture of phOsphOrC acid, Of potash,
lime, magnesia and nitrates in a soluble
state. (BOuSsingault, G. Willie, Gilbert, Gran

first designated this mixture the COmpiete

fertilizer containing substantially all that is
necessary to fertilZe the soil, however DOOR

plants therein cultivated to thrive and to
prosper superiority in every respect.
The first public announcement of this as
sumption met, as matter Of course, with the
doubts and denalS of many agriculturists
while it was treated by experimenting chem
lists as absurd; but time, with its wonder
working and demonstrations often repeated
have sealed the assumption with the majesty
OF truth demonstrated, and it has caused a
revolution in European methods of agrOnOmy,
OF which we in Louisiana have heard but the
distant echoes.
Now that the last vestiges Of doubt have
been removed by the renewed experiments
and demonstrations Of George Vile, can we
afford to ignore his doctrine, which is now the
basis Of advanced agrOnOmy? Undoubtedly
not. Previous to the
WILLIE DOCTRINE
there was considerable confusion on the sub
ject. A good many agrOnOmsts commended
