THE DRoUTH.

1t is an unpleasant matter to-
announce the severe injury TO which
he cane has suffered from the
almost unprecedented continuance
Of dry weather. The. time has,
passed that sufficient ma
terial benefit would be derived from
rain to overcome the great injury
already caused. 8 49, t8
1t is hard for the planters to real
ize the change from the good pros
poets of three months ago; and that
there is some cause of discourage
ment for them is undoubted. Still
the misfortune has to be endured
with the hope that in other respects
through a favorable rolling season,
there may be some compensation.
With a larger area under culti-
walton, it Is extremely doubtful
whether the amount of sugar made
in the State will equal that of last
year. 1t certainly will be less in
the parishes not then overlooked.
AS to prices, Notwithstanding the
change in duty, there should be no
reduction, owing to the probable
extreme richness of the juice and
the improved process on many plan
tations, in the manufacture. Ii
sOme instances also the additions
means for extraction of juice will
tell on the result.
i While all these disadvantage
underlying the present condition o
the planter are evident, still, Their
is not, SO far as we can notice, an.
81 yielding to encouragement. Ever.
plantation is busy place, and all
the planter, overseer aud aithtu
laborer, are straining every nerv
for gathering crops now matured

lana the name of Gen. Francis i. Nichols.
Good many papers have dropped the worthy

we are still to know where the proofs to that

State unfurl his name to the breeze, and thus
by unanimous appeal, let him hear the deep

The number of Louisiana news
papers which support Nichols is on
theincreaae. That influential paper,
the st, John Meschacebe, comes out
for him vigorously. 1t says:
We have waited patiently, watch.
ing by the straws which way the
wind blew, and as we entertain no
more doubts about the acceptance of
Gov. Nichols, if nominated, we join
our feeble voice to that of our many
rural confreres who have proclaimed
his name as the flttest in connection
with the highest Office in the gift of
the people of Louisiana.
Let us stand firm by the glorious
name of Francis L. Nichols and the
wave of public opinion will bear HIM

In Which an Elderly Gentleman, His
Wire, Her Escort, a Cane, and n Herdic
Figure.
About 9:30 o'clock last night, the neighbor-
hood Of Pennsylvania avenue and Tenth
street was thrown into state Of excitement
byan elderly gentleman, who discovered his
unfaithful wife with another man. The wife
and her escort left of Hafvey's and quickly
entered herdic cab. The driver started his
team, but had only reached the middle of the
street when he was hailed by the old gentle
man and stopped his horse. The latter thcn
stepped up to the vehicle, and after pulling
the door open, accused his wife of infdelity.
He then addressed pretty severe language to
his wifes escort at the same
time belaboring him over the head
and shoulders with cane. The
escort sprang out of the herdic and started
briskly down Tenth street. while the husband
entered the cab and gave tho driver direc-
tions to drive to certain house in the most
fashionable part of the city. The affair was
witnessed by quite large crowd. The driver
afterward stated that he had been engaged by
the man and woman while coming down
Capitol hill. He thought the name of the
husband was Abbott, and that he resides on
Sixteenth street. He also remarked that the
pair quarreled all the way home and that
Mr.Abbott in entering his residence announced
his intention of either whipping his wife or
getting divorce.
