A ronsing meeting Of the Phmuix Fire
Company was held last Saturday evening
and ten new members were admitted.
The company is enjoying veritable
boom, and we hope there will be no
abatement Of the enthusiasm until the
streets of Donaldsonville are dotted
with fire wells and the boys of Phoenix
can "run with a masheen' of their own
that will compare favorably with the
steamers used in the large cities. A sub
scription list to aid Phoenix in purchas-

While engaged i'll handling the steering

Mr.. Morris Heyman Of the Dutch
Stores neighborhood, eighth ward, was
in town this morning and we were glad
to have the pleasure of a brief talk with
him. He informs us that during the
past few days the water has been falling
ut the rate of an inch in twenty four
hours. 1t is now only about II inches in
depth at Dutch Stores, having declined
fully three feet since the food was at its
maximum height.
Judge Cheevers arrived home thisI
morning, having adjourned the District
Court in st. James until Tuesday next,
when the Vacherie road case will be
again taken up. This suit has been
under consideration this week and some
further progress made, but the end of the
interminahie litigation seems as far off
as ever. Unless the property and rights
involved in it are very valuable, the
costs will be apt to "eat them up"

Liverpool futures, which closed the week
previous at 6O-64d for September, closed
the week under review a. 6 58-64d for the
same month, similar reduction showing for
all deliveries.
The local market, wh ich opened with spot
middling quoted at 124c-ibe price ruling
all the previous week-went down &c on the
second day. No further decline occurred
until Thursday, when another tc was
clipped, leaving the price quoted at 12c,

showed some increase, but not in proportion
10 the advancement of the season. The
weather has been favorable for CROP, except,
perhaps, mite too cold during the nights.
Wagers are offering without takers that the
crop OF this season will reach $500 1000,
