ETC.
st. Tammauy parish is located
tgenty-two miles north of New Or
leans CoyingtoE, the county site,
is ten miles further north, ia the
interior, and is delightfully."- located
on the Bogue Falia.
IMMIGRANTS,
with small amount of capitol and
fair supply of industry and perse-
verapee, cannot possibly do better
than locate in our parish. The eli
mate is as Gne as any in the world.
The winters are generally mild, and
snow rarely falls. Spring opens
early in February, with blossoms
on the peach and ounce trees. and
vegetation comes rapidly forward.
The heat of summer is moderate,
and the qnfailipg bFeezes of the
evening refresh man and beast after
the labors of the day.
THE SOIL
is very productive. and admirably
adapted for raising sugar cane, cot
ton, oats, corn. rice. peanuts, etc.
The vine is indigenous. and yearly
bears large hafvests of delicious
fruit. Oranges. pears, peach, plums,
ounces. figs and pecans thrive well.
CATTLE AND SHEEP
graze.upon our pine lands through
out the year, and seldom are fed in
winter, thus making st. Tammany
the soock-growers' home. Farming
and stock lands can be purchased at
rates varying from 81 to SIS per
acre, and Government lands to
actual settlers
WATER POWER,
There is an abundance, of water
power. already improved, inviting
the attention of manufacturers, We
have no doubt small factory, such
as already abound in Alabama and
Georgia, for the purpose of con-
verting our cotton crop into yarn,
would prove a paying investment.
FIRE CLAY
is found in abundance, as we'll as
CLAWS suitable for pottery ware of
the very finest texture, purely white,
and free from sand or grit. Per-
sons having . practical knowledge
of such business would soon realize
fortune in manufacturing and
shipping such wares to the New
Orleans market.
MANUFACTURE OF GLASS
Sand suitable for the manufacture
of glass is also abundant all along
the banks of the Bogue Falia, above
the town Of Coyington. 1t has been
practically tested by Pittsburg
manufacturers, and found to con-
tain all the necessary properties to
produce the finest glassware.
CONVICTION,
the county site, contains about
eight hundred inhabitants, and is
the best business point in the par
ish, commanding much of the trade
of both st. Tammany and Washing
ton parishes. The mail from New
Orleans arrives three times o week,
per steamer New Camelia, and
there is some talk of building a
telegraph lins. s
Atpresent there is no mill or
mandatory of any kind in Coying-
ton. Building sites for mapufac-
turing purposes can. be bad on the
most favorable terms. and every
facility will be offered for immi-
grants to this parish.
To all honest and industrious i'm
migrants who may wish to settle in
st. Tammany. Hearty welcome is
extended and protection guaranteed
in their respective occupations.

A Literary Kettledruna.

There is lady living in little four
roomed cottage in the environs of Boston,
says writer in Ltppincott's, whose name
Is we'll known to literary people. She
depends wholly upon her OVID exertions
for the support Of herself and children,
and does her own homework, yet her
cottage is the focus of the best society of
the locality. A gentleman calling there
recently was received at the door by q
daughter of the lady, who told him her
mother was too busy to he called, but that
he could see her in the kitchen if he
pleased; and he followed her to that
room. The lady greeted HIM without the
least embarrassment, though she had on
big apron and her sleeves were pinned
back 10 her shoulders. She was cutting
a pumpkin into strips for pies; and there
sat venerable gentleman gravely pairing
the strips to the accompaniment of bril-.
liant conversation. I was asked to guess
who this gentleman was, and, after several
truitless attempts, was told that it was
the poet Longfellow. While the pump.
kin-parlng was in process, another dis.
tinguished poet called, and he also insis.
ted upon being impressed into the service.
1t was dreary day outside, and no one
cared to leave the pleasant cottage, so
they all stayed to lunch, one of the pies
forming the piece de resistance of the &C.
casion. Speaking of this incident after
ward, the lady said, my friends are
kind enough to come to see me, though
they know I cannot leave my work to
entertain them. Visiting and work
must proceed together, and when I set my
callers at work with me we are sure to
have an agreeable time''
