We have many country fpapers on
our exchange list, and venture the
assertion that, generally speaking,
the papers published in the raral
districts of Louisiana will compare
favorably with those of any State in
the. Union. It would be inyidious to
call them by names, bnt in many of
them we often find editorials eyinc-
ing q high order of genius and talent
on the part of the editor; indeed, we
frequently come across articles that
compare favorably with the best We
tind IN any Of the great metropolitan
Journals. For the home circle, aud
to obtain all parish news the parish
papers are decidedly the best for our
patronage. A we'll conducted country
paper gives all the political and COM
mercial news; keeps US Thoroughly
posted as to all that is going OH at
home and abroad besides, it furnishes
reading matter for the family.
The parish paper should be taken
by every inhabitant of the parish
where it is printed.

IRISH SONG.

On Innisfallens fairy isle,
Amid the blooming bushes,
We leant upon the lovers stile
And listened to the thrushes
When first l sighed to see her smile,
And smiled to see her blushes.
Her hair was bright as beaten gold,
And soft as spiders spinning,
Her cheek 0utbloomed the apple old
That set our parents SHINING,
And in her eyes you might behold
My joys ana griefs beginning.
In Innisfallen's fairy grove
hushed my happy wOoing,
To listen TO the brooding dove
Amid the branches eooing;
But oh how short those words Of love,
How long their bitter ruing!
Poor cushat thy complaining breast
With woe like mine is heaving,
With thee l mourn fruitless quest;
For ah with art deceiving
The cuckoo-bird has robbed my nest,
And left me wildly grieving.
