Cotton picking is going on in real
earnest now, although the present crop
is at least two weeks behind that OF
last year. Only two new bales have
bsen sold on our streets, against at
least 100 up to this time last year. 1t
is tile opinion of our leading merchants
that the crop will fall one third below
the yield of 1881, As an offset to this
difference, the corn and petato crops
will be SO per cent better than they
were last season. IF we have dry
weather during tile month of Septem-
ber, much of the damage done the cot
ten, by excessive rains in August, will
be repaired by the growth of the top
crop We hope things will not prove
so gloomy as the present indicates, and
that there will be favorable improve

prise and ability, and adds new lustre

history of the whole Mississippi Valley

of its efforts, and the grandeur and
scope of its successful labors. Such
pluck, energy and liberality are bound
TO win popularity and financial success

In NIemoriam.

In the midst of the busy and stormy
scenes of life, We are often called TO
pause, to withdraw our minds from the
manifold cares aud duties of the hour,
and pay mournful tribute to the mem
ory of those who have fallen asleep by
the wayside.
The subject of tire following sad re-
marks, MRS. ANNE GURNETr, was born
on the 22d day. of October, 1909, on
Bayou Beuf, ST. Landry parish. Lou
isiana. She was married to Thomas b.
Knox, Esq. on the l4th day of Febru-
lary, 1928; their marriage was blessed
with fourteen children, only two of
:Nhom survived their mother, to mourn
her loss aud cherish her memory. She
was, in an eminent degree, kind, de-
voted and selfesaerificing wife aud mo-
ther; her whole life was devoted to re-
ligion, love aud charity; aud the sick
and distressed found in her tue and
sympathetic friend she was the EN-
bodihent of love and sympathy. She
melted into tears at the misfUrtnnes
and distsesses Of. others, but bore her
own misfortunes aud ills with that re-
signation and fortitude which alone
springs from pure and Christian faith.
Her pure benevolence was unborn, and
flowed spontaneously from the heart !;
to excite it and bring it into useful ac-
tivity, it was only necessary for her to
see, or hear of tie unfortunate. the mis-
erable.. Her benevelenee may be com
pared fe flowing fountain, which does
not stop to enquire if the channel is
wide enough TO carry off its waters, but
of it's own native fullness gushes forth
and makes the. channel wide enough.
She was consistent member of the Re-
man Catholic church, and pure Chris
tan. She had not been in vigorous
health for several years, but was able
to be up and to attend to her ordinary
domestic duties and cares until short
time before her death, which occurred
on Friday evening. July 9TH, 1882, at
half past one o'clock. She seemed to
be conscious of her approaching disso-
luton, and her actions for some time
preceding her death showed that she
realized the fact that she would soon
meet her loved ones in 's.that sweet by
aud bye.' Her last illness was of short
duration slle met death peacefully and
calmly. Sustained and soothed by nn-
faltering trust In her Savior, she ap
preached the grave
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
about him,
And lies down to pleasant dreams"
Her body sleeps In the Catholic Gem
etery of 0pesousas, where the ashes OF
her husband aud of all her departed
children, save one, mingle with the
dust; her spirit is with her God. Re

TIGER BEND (Avoy elles), Aug. 28 '62.
EDITORS OF THE COURIER:
The past four days have been any
thing but favorable for cetton picking
rainy, slushy weather. The first bale
of new cotton was received at the Bend
on Saturday, the Goth instant-grown,
ginned and baled by our neighbor and
enterprising farmer, Mr.. Fyle. The
new bale weighed 46S pounds.
The cotton prospect was never better
in this vicinity. All that is wanted is
fair weather to save the large crop.
Bunkieville, the new town near us on
the N. 0. Pacific R. R., is improving.
Various parties will build there this
fall and coming winter.
Almost every train brings more
or less merchandise to this station
(Haas'J, on the M. L. & T. r. R., for
merchants here and the surrounding
country. In spite, it seeIne, of bad
weather, they sell a large amount of
goods. = Considerable sickness in the
country, mostly among the eelored peo-
pie, several of whom have died.
Now for few driftings here and
there We wonder how many have
read Bishop Ireland's sermen, delivered
in st. Paul, Mimi, Aug. Cd, on '' Total
Abstinence The sermon is we'll
worth reading. The reverend gentle
man says " the cost of alcoholic liquors
in the United States has been for one
year $3.50, O,000, 900, or an average Of Sl5
to every man, woman and child in the
country. In Great Britain it is $40 to
every person of the population" This
is enough for fathers and mothers to
think on and study, particularly Chris
tian people. = The Chicago Times re-
ports that last year the people of the
Southern States paid to those of the
North, in round numbers, $55 ,000, 900
for wheat, $50, 100000 for corn, $72,
000, 600 for meats, and some $25, ,O0O,-
900 for hay and provisions. Paste this
up. 1t will show you what your cotton
crop goes for. ILLINOIS.

The war in Egypt is daily assuming
more complicated aspect in ali of it's
relations The diplomacy between En-
gland and Turkey continues vacillat-
ing the attitude of Russia in sending
troops towards Asia Minor bodies no
pacific temper; and the determined ac-
tion of Arabi Pasha, In bis warlike
movements, leads to the conclusion
that the Moliammedans have chosen
him as their chief in the present reli-
gions crusade between the Christian
and Islam world. England will con
ouer, if left alone; but if other powers
are drawn into it. no one can tell the
result nor anticipate its end.
