But, like the hero Of the story in the
familiar fable, even if he did not want

face TO face.
A swift burning blush mantled her

of hesitation, she put her hand in his

A sudden fire leaped into Duncan'S
eyes.

/ All the corn planted in February il
now in silk and tassel, and has been
made by the late rains. With occa-
sional rains during this month the en-
tire crops will be excellent aud the
largest ever made in this parish, as the
acreage is greater than ever before.
The growth of the cotton has been re-
tarded on the uplands by the cool
weather that prevailed nearly all last
month, and by the overflow in the bot
tom lands; but the acreage viii be
greater than usual in the latter because
young corn is always destroyed by
worms just after an overflow, and. not
much of it will be planted. There will
be a big cotton crop made if the cater
pillars do not come, and the distruc--
tion of the cane by the overflow will
cause many hands to be left out of en-
ployment in sugar plantations who can
help pick the cotton. The agricultu-
raj outlook in this parish is very prom
