Immigration begins to tnrn towards our State
A most amicable feeling exists between the two
races. Race prejudices have subsidized, and our
people, white and colored, are unit in striving
to develop the resources Of Louisiana. Recent
investigations have shown that nearly every
vegetable, plant and tree that springs from our
soil can be utilized and made profitable. In
fact, we have wonderful diversity in our 70.
products of fruits, cotton, sugar. rice, corn nd
other cereals, while valuable fbrous plants arc
now being introduced Attention is being giv-
on to stook raising in some Of the parishes, and
IN few years our stock raisers will DO able to
supply the homo demand for horses and mules.
The future for Louisiana 10 q grand one. It
does not seem chimerical, when we look at our
extraordinary advantages to anticipate future
maximum production to the value Of five hun.
dred million dollars per annum.

cry Of poor Louisiana and her impov ershed

Legislative Action ON the Subject.
Since the first issue of the NEWS
at Cherry Creek, we have earnestly
advocated the urgency of a daily mail
service from Humboldt Wells. The
granting OF this reasonable demand by
the Postofice Department Is but SIM
justice to our people. There is not SO
large a community anywhere on the
Coast, whose mail facilities are SO
limited as ours. Though several un-
successful appeals, by petition and
otherwise, have been made, favorable
action has proved tardy. We have,
however, strong hopes that the fol-
lowing joint resolution, which has
passed the Legislature and been trans
mitted to our Senators and Represen-
tative in Congress-, will have the eff
feet to arouse the postal authorities to
the performance of a long-neglected
duty and an act of justice to the resi-
dents of the most thriving and popu.

State Taxation.

The Senate bill fixing the rate of
taxation places the rate It 80 cents on
the 500. This is an increase of 80
cents VI the rate of the past two
years. Were it NOT that the Legisla-
ture has passed a bill to authorize a
State oar of SEQ, 900, the rate would
be entirely too Inadequate, such has
been the depreciation of taxable val
ues in the past two years. While the
amount and value of taxable property
has decreased so greatly, but little
has been done by the Legislature to-
wards decreasing the expenses of the
State government for the coming tn o
years.

The rock was very rich, and we learn

THE R0ERa.

The British Defeated With Great
Slaughter, and Their General
Killed.
The Brittih met with a crushing de-
feat from the Beers last Sunday. A
large number of soldiers and officers
were killed; their commanding Gen.
eral Colley, being among the slain.
The Wal department at London has
received the following telegram from
Colonel Bond, commanding at Mt.
Prospect: General Colley, with %
officers and 627 men, infantry and
naval brigade, proceeded on Sunday
night to occupy Majola mountain.
The Beers attacked him at 7 O'Clock
Sunday morning. At | p. M. the fir
ing increased; at 2,2O 1t became evil
dent from the camp that we had lost
the bill, and our men we're retiring
under a heavy fire. There is no
doubt that Gen. Colley is killed.
Gen. Wood telegraphs corroborat-
ing the above, and says he will return
to New Castle on Monday.
Another account of the fight at
Spitzkop says when the ammunition
failed the slaughter was terrible.
Finally the British made a desperate
but unsuccessful rush. Sixtieth Foot
fought their way back to camp. 1t
is stated that only seven men of the
F~ifty-eighth survive. The camp is
being fortified on every point.
