AT WORK.

One Of the best signs of q dillig t
prosecution of their Iabors by farmers is
their marked absence from our streets
durins the good weather Of the last fort
night. In the words of IL representative
farmer, "thc busy season in the country
has commenced in earnest" and we hear
Oh every hand of the rapid progress be-
ing made. Owing to tho protracted wet
weather III the latter part of March, cot
ton planting was delayed somewhat. but
after the warm spell since, this delay
is now hardly perceptible. The free la
Dor, notwithstanding the emigration fe-
vcr,. is working we'll this season, and
those still in our midst seem better salts
fed than for years. 1t would seem that
the country has gotten rid of the worst
class of colored people through the cSo-
dus excitement, and III this way the rad
ical political managers, without any good
intention on their part, have actually
visited q blessing upon the people
against whom they have so long and
persistently directed sectional ani1n"sity.
That the South is entering upou all era
of prosperity, is evidenced by the inter
est now bein taken by our people in u
diversified agriculture, the good effects Of
which is st,ongly felt at thus time when
their potato crops are being sent to n'ai-
ket, to return Immediately Il profitable
cash revenue While speaking of this
profitable cash producing factor we can
not refrain from giving few facts and
figures thereto The irish potato is plant
cd at Il time when no ether farm work is
pressing, SAY, fl ON the 18th of December
to the 1Oth of January. 1t requires, at
tn. outside about four barrels to plant an
acre of ground and will yield in this eli
mate an average OF ten to one, although,
on the Batter place, about ten miles from
this town, fifteen barrels for every one
planted was gathered this season. The
seed, n the tune of planting, never conf
mands higher figure than $500 "a $3.50,
per barrel. At this time, in the st. Lott
is market, potatoes from the South COM
mand from $500 "a $3.50, and this too,
with n qnet market and no demand.
Advices from all the Western Cities state
that from the 5th to the 18th May the do
mand will be good. and possibly the
prices will range higher, should the ship
ments not be too large. At present fig
ures, it will be seen a revenue OF $l2O,
can be realized on one acre Of ground
tor about 10 days work. There are
other little side crops which promise
equally as good revenue and we hope i'll
a few more years to see annual shipment
to the West where, through a mistaken
idea of economy, the same. articles are be-
ing shipped to us.

DEATH OF DIR. L. s. McORINDELL.

gloom of sadness was cast over our
entire community on Monday aloruip.
last by the report of the death of DR.
LEWIS S. McCR1NDELL. Although his
friends had cause tc expect the sad news
at any moment, the Intelligence was
none the less saddening, for in the loss of
him everybody recognized the fact that
one of our best physicians and truest
citizens was no more. DR.. McCrindell
was native Of this Parish and at death
had scarcely reached the meridian Of
life. He was in his 34th year. In the
discharge of his duties as physician he
contracted the disease which caused his
death. In attending patient, some
years ago, he was caught in u hard rain,
and on his return taken down with pIeu-
rasy, of a severe type, from which he
never entirely recovered. Our de-
parted friend was graduate of
the Louisiana Medical Collie ge,
and although comparatively young
ut his demise had won the gratitude Of u
host of nnfortunates to whom he had
Eecn called to administer the healing art.
-Ao J"''SA viz DuISCOpdI CllttlCH Ill tne
year 1860, was regarded as strcng be-
lever in Christ, good citizen and true
and devoted friend. In his own words
We offer consolation to his weeping rela-
tives and assure them, that while he may
not have done his whole duty 10 his God,
he was true to the golden rule which re.
quircs us to 10 even SO unto others as we
would that they should do unto ns. The
mere interinent of the clay which he'd in
bondage his soul is no sign Of death, for
death means eternal dark ness; it is
pleasant to know that
"Like one who wraps the drapery of his
couch
About him and lies down to pleasant
Dreams"
he left this world for ono where ''snffer- !
ing and sorrow are unknown" His last
earthly remains were accompanied to
their resting place by Bayou Sara and
Pioneer Fire companies (to the latter Of
which he belonged since it's organization):
as we'll rs large concourse Of friends
from the surrounding country.
