SOME OTHER TIME.

some other time, we softly say;
Our words are touched with hopeful tru
And dreams long hidden from the day.
Rise up again, as such dreams must;
For drcams As sweet as those We know,
Can never die. though care may hide:
As daisies nestle under snow.
They wait the Springs effulgrnt tide.
Some other day. We whisper DER;
Sweet hope lights up her face again,
And strong in their glad trust, once more
Our hearts repeat the sweet rcfrain.
Some other time, We dare not look
To see how far away il is.
But wait and sing Of coming days
In low aud hopeful cadences.
oh hasten. time. We wait, and say.
Tomorrow will most surely bring
The glad, the sweet, the longe,-for day,
But doubt Is with ns while We sing:
- many morruws come and 90,
Nor bring the time We dream about.
All well. Some other time. ! know
| shall he done with fear and doubt
For hop. is whispering in my breast
De patient, It's not far away
Wen. ! will sit me down. and rest,
And dream about the coming day.

THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE WORLD.
~ WILLIAM ROSS WALLACE.

blessings on the hand of Woman
Angels guard its strength and grace,
In the palace, cottage. hoyel,
%, no matter where the place,
Would that never storms assaulted it;
Rainbows ever gently curled;
For the hand thai rocks the cradle,
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Infancy the tender fountain;
Power NAV with beauty flow;
Mothers first TO guide the streanlet-;
From them souls unresting grow;
Grow on for the good or evil,
Sunshine streamed or darkness hurled
For the hand that rocks the cradle.
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Woman, how divine your mission
Here upon our natal sod
Keep, o, keep the young heart open
Always TO the breath of God
All true trophies Of the Ages
Are from Mother Love impaired
For the hand that rocks the cradle,
l. the hand that rocks the world.
Blessings ON the hand Of Woman
Fathers, sons aud daughters cry;
And the sacred song Is mingled
With the worship in the sky;
Mingles where no tempest darken-
Rainbows evermore are hurled:
For the hand that rocks the cradle.
Is the hand that rocks the world.

THE DARKENED NURSERY.

There's room enough in the nursery now
Twas crowded little before
For when the crib in the corner sat,
The rockers came close TO the door:
But the light was sweet. and the air was soft,
And the rO0m was filled with cheer;
For we all were chained to the spo;
By the voice Of the baby dear
Where Is the sunshine-where is the noise
Where are the piaythings gonei
What shall do with my empty arms.
Sitting alone alone
What shall l do with the empty crib
Where shall | set his chair
Must the darling little ones clothes come down
70 oh. let me leave them there
Nay, fold them mp softly. and put them By.
Life is holier through this pain:
Lay up the earIiage-eheek the deep sish,
Take up life's duties again.
Turn the face fully toward Heaven and God
His sweet peace shall keep thee still;
Bow low before Him, kissing His rod.
And murmur, love-''Just as God will

INTERESTING CASES.

Two cases are pending in the
District Court, and will probably
be decided today, which present
questions of fact and law of consid-
.erable interest to our people.
In LAFITTE Us. MADERE, ct. al,
a case which involves the important
question of the laws and duties
governing the respective rights of
rice and sugar planters whose levees
are adjoining, the case was closed
on the evidence, and the argument
took place last Monday; James ID.
Augustin for plaintiff, and L. De
Poorter, for defendant. AS this
subject of the laws regulating drain
age in the alluvial portion of the
State have been made the subject of
deep study and research on the part
of both Messrs. Augustine and De
Poorter an interesting argument
was enjoyed.
The case of heirs of Joseph Tou.
zame against DR.. Denis Meng, was
also closed, and the argument only
was postponed for today: the ques.
tion of the authority of the Doctor,
as administrator, to make an invest
ment which is claimed to have been
a loss and whether his action was
ratified, and hence, if the money be
lost, who should suffer, is the main
question at issue, lnterspersed with
numel Gus complicated side issues
and exceptions which of course will
be duly considered by the Court;
Charles A. Baquie for plaintiff; Jas.

CUTTING RICE.

The rice fields are lively with rice
cutters. On every place there Is
some rice sufficiently matured to
require cutting. Labor is in de-
mand. Rice planting is usually car
ried on among a number Of friends,
neighbors or relations in partner
ship; no part of the work is very
hard or disagreeable except the
cutting, which operation is carried on
in the hot weeks Of the year. The
heat, perspiration and fatigue incl
dent to rice cutting are not consld-
cred very much in crowd of friends
orrelations who are their own bosses
and cut their own rice in their own
way. But to an outsider, a regu-
lar employee, compelled to obey the
rules relative to hours etc., the task
is a severe one, and it is not surpris-
ing that 81, 20 per day is demanded.
The sun in rice field at midday,
on moving, working muscle, makes
rice cutting task indeed. Mr.. Bel
som, near the Court House has al
ready threshed rice and is still at
work harvesting his crop.
| On the Hahnyille tract, rice cut
| ting has been carried on for week
or two, and will be continued until
the whole crop is matured and cut
The steam engine and thresher have
been putin order and tested, and az
soon as enough stacks surround the
machinery threshing will regularly
, begin under the management o
Pierre D'Arensbourg, who will rul
the thresher this year.
