Two of our French brothcrs-Judgc
Seay, formerly Of Virginia, and iona
g. White, originally from Delaware
seem to be at outs about the ortho-
graphy OF a fish we'll known in our
water. The Shreveport Standard,
whereof Judge Seay is editor, has this
to say Of the g;,spergoo
ssCasscpurgot,' which il; pretty
Acadian name for Il very poor fish, are
biting finely in the Courtablcou, says
tho Opelousas Courier. McCranic says
they are biting in the Ouachita also
but that, up there, they bite under
the name of gaspergoo.
But iona White OF the Grctna
Courier, lineal descendant of the
original fisherman iona by name,
spells our gaspergoo in this fashion {:
brother Bryan, Of the Lake Charles
Echo wishes to know the true ortilo-
graphy Of a we'll known fish, Of our
Louisiana waters, commonly called by
Americans, Gaspergoo. The true
photography Of the name, is this-bc-
ing French casseburgeau, hornbrcakcr,
or frcshwatcr sllccphcad.
y friend Of the writer, and a native
of France who is thoroughly educated,
informs us that there is no French for
gaspcrgoo. 1t is likely that our French
brothers OF the Standard and of the
Courier have forgotten their mother
tongue

The closing of the present channel by
which the waters of Red river are dis
charged into the Mississippi and he diver
Atchatalaya, is an event which is considered
by engineers to be certain, and the time
when this change will be made is in the
near future.--Natchc= Democrat.
There is much force in some Of the
outlet arguments Of Capt. John Cow
den, and while we do not agree with
him generally, we are inclined to think
this is one outlet that should be made.
Nature seems disposed to close up the
mouth Of Red river and permit its
water to flow to the gulf by another
route. The government is spending
money every year to resist this effort
OF nature, we think uselessly and
wronSfully. Better close the mouth
with 4 lcvee and let Red river seek the
gulf through the Atchafalaya.-TI cA:s-
ouy Commercial.
1t seems to us that the powerful in
tellccts CT Natchcz and Nicksburg
might be better employed than in
helping nature. Capt. .Cowden is
bound to have an outlct-every news
paper reader knows as mucl of the
Captain. Would it not be well for the
otpNtaAu W AA up XII Oullct lOI 1ChS-
burg? Nature seems disposed to make
that place a transfer city. Natchez,
too, lacks aid from some quarter. Ma
turc seems disposed to send the waters
OF the Mississippi through Lake Con-
cordia across from Natchez. Our
Congressman, Gen. King, and the re-
preventative from s;the shoc-string dis.
trict' i'll Mississippi, Gen. Chalmers,
have their attention called particularly
to this effort of nature to damn the
Ouachita and Red rivers. We under
stand very well that an outlet through
the Atchafayla would relieve the in
terror towns, Natchez and Nicksburg,
but we shall thank our Mississippi
friends if they will permit our people
to reach New. Orleans through the
Mississippi river.

ports that the Corona, which left here
twenty-eight minutes after the II.

Corona broke her wheel by fouling a

when the Lea landed alongside for
