ssOlll PrCS.''

Pres. Stuart, a colored man formerly
the trusted servant of the late DR. Jno.
Calderwood and widely known as Pres.
Calderwood, the polite porter or bar
tender of nearly every saloon in Mon
roe since the war, died Sunday night.
Pres. was fast friend of the whites
and was proud to rank himself among
"the old citizens" few Of whom, he
but lately said, were now left and with
a large majority of whom "Old Pres"
is now numbered. lie is one of the five
uarkies of Monroe who, when enfran-
chiscd, stood firmly and tfXcdly by the
Democrats, and he lived and died in
that POLITICAL faith, faltcring only once
for a brief season. At many ball he
made his "elbuck jinl1 and diddle,'
and Il cheerful smile and a merry good
day nearly always played upon his
honest black face.
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1882-09-09
The Crops and Weather.

The condition of the cotton crop is
somewhat precarious. There are
myriads of the caterpillar moth in the
fields and around the lamps at night,
but no serious damage has been done,
exceptional fields not included, y and
the maturing crop of worms will hard
Iy be ranked as an army for ten days
to come. Even then it is probable
that some plantations and even locali-
ties will escape the pest entirely.
Where the weed is rank, there is COM
plant Of rot in the opening bolls, and
nearly every planter reports a very
slim middle crop.
The past week has been conspicuous
for seven days of dry weather, but the
indications to-day [Friday) point
strongly to rain. Planters should not
allow light rains to interfere with
picking. Spread the wet cotton on
scaffolds to dry.
The corn crop is a fair one to the
acre and we'll matured, but the acreage
is wholly disappointment to the
amount of corn needed. Fodder is
abundant; peas and potatoes promise Il
heavy Weld,
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1882-09-09
COttOnpO Depot.

The framing for the depot building
in Cottonport is nearly all in position.
The building will be 2sX75 feet, with
coyercd platforms on either side. Adj
joining on the east will be cotton
platform 42X75 feet; and running the
entire length Of the two, on the north
side, there will be plank elevated
wagon way, / feet lower than the plat
form, with inclines at either end, the
roadway to be over $50 in length. Mr..
Fred Nolman has the contract, and is
making the colored boys pcrspirc right
frccly-whcn it is not raining.
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1882-09-09
River Items.

A small bar, about feet in hight,
has formed just in front of the draw
pier of the railroad bridge, where last
year there was about the deepest water
in the river at that point. This seems
to kill off predictions of wash-ou
around the piers.
The Democrat of Tuesday says the
John Hanna, and the Picayune, same
date, says the Hanna Blanks, will leave
tomorrow for Monroe. 1T was the John
Hanna, due to- day.
Capt Jack Blanks, who was danger.
ously i'll some days ago in Cincinnati,
was reported on the 1st much better,
day or two. Returning, says the Com
mercial, he will visit Wheeling swhcre
he has new packet, 175 feet long, in
course of construction, to be used in one
of the Southern bayous.'
The U. S. snag-boat O. G. Wagner
arrived Monday evening, Capt White,
who was here last year, in command.
Capt White returned yesterday from
a cruise above, being unable to reach
the Arkansas territory, and will spend
the remainder of the low-water season
in the. river below this point. He
will find plenty to do, and we trust
the work will be thoroughly done.
What about the wharfboat not having
the stage out Saturday when the Han.
naarrived? Are not the lessees required
to furnish safe means of access and exit?
And might not the hog-trail down the
bank be bettered with wooden steps?
Referred to the Committee on Streets
and Landings of the City Council, with
the remark that the City revenue from
landings ought to be sufficient to afford
ladies and children at least sure and
dry footing on and off the boats.
The river was falling at noon yester-
day at the rate of 6 inches in "a hours
with feet inches above low-water of
last year.

love you one and all,
Like lido the fields of corn and sugar
am getting old and feeble and my hair
And there's no one left on earth to care
for me,
Aud the hoe-cakes in the cabin tley grow
scarcer ev'ry day,
Since lost my Massa when dcv set me
free.
Yes, my friends, lost my Massa, many,
But I Still remember what he said to
''You must leave the old plantation,
you've no NIassa any more,
For they've gone and made the colored
people Free
Since left the old plantati on and the
fields of sugar cane,
And enjoy'd the rights OF freedom like
the rest;
0, 1 try to think I'm happy, but the old
times come again,
Then think love the slar'ry days the
Then the children never hunger'd for the
hoe-calle in the morn,
Or the bacon which they always used to
those good ole days are gone,
Cause lost my Massa when dey set
me free.
CHORUS.
oh, 1 long to hear the angels call me
yonder to the skies,
ForI know I've spent my looted time
below,
And I think 1 hear them saying. they
will be here by and by,
When they come along I'm ready,
friends, to go.
I am going to journey over 'mong the
fields once again,
And old Mass;, and old Missus 1 will
see,
And ril tell them why I'm coming, why
my heart is full of pain,
Cause lost my Massa when dey set
me free.
CHORUS.
