Some days ago we made a jour
ney by the Morgan Railroad, down
Bayou Black. The crops of sugar
cane all along the route looked fine
and although in places the stand
appeared thin, yes the outlook fore
tells 2 good yield for the next rol
ling season.
The night was passed on Belle
Grove plantation. This magnificent
estate was originally the property
of the late NJ. IL. Daunis who form
ed it into IA sugar plantation. 1t is
now the property of J. NJ. Mcbride
and two of the remaining heirs OF
the original owner.
1t Is certainly a fine estate, aud
is we'll protected by levees against
overflow from the river water.
1t is capable of growing cane snf
ticIent to make u million pounds
OF sugar, which result will doubt
less be obtained ere many years.
For several years the caile has
been boiled into syrup and sent
over two miles through pipes to
the Glendale plantation Of McCul
lom for granulatiOn by vacuum.
The crop the present year is ap
pareatly among the finest in this
section Of the country.

The C~apitoliam. Advocate, with
quite a flourish of trumpets, depIe
Gates any arguments of the Press
throughout the State, in reference
to the next election for State Off
GERS, that will be held twelve
months hence.
The G. a. is entitled to it's own
views, and to prescribe it's own
cause of action, but the other pa
pers will claim the same privilege.
1t is all very we'll for a certain class
Of citizens to endeavor to crush
out any opinions that may be enter
tanned, in. reference to the future
complexion of the State Govern
ment, but at the same time there
may be other voters and taxpayers
who think 1t a proper time to let
their opinions be known to the pub
lie.
Those who are having a good
time now, who have aided in the
passage Of laws that are deleterious
to the general welfare, and who
wish to continue themselves in
power that they may fatten by the
continuation of bad laws. have no
wish to talk about the subject of
future government, until they CAN
fix upon a ticket that will be salts
factory to themselves. Were the
G. A. and other papers of its opin
ion, TO discuss some of the laws and
acts that are to day working inju
riously to the public welfare, and
which have been under discussion
for some weeks, its advice would
be more opportnne.
On those points they are ominous

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.
INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. pr.
marked Improvement in trade is noticeable
with the better weather. Our merchants are
now well prepared for the early spring trade
and we believe it is safe to say that never be-
fore was so large and complete stock of spring
goods displayed in this market. Values gem
orally were steady and firm, and all country
Nerchants will find this market in an excellent
condition and well disposed to do fun justice
10 their commercial wants. Indications are that
With the dry goods men trade is to commence
little earlier than last year Druggists report
business stlil little slow. Gum opium and
morphine in moderate demand; prices re-
main unchanged. Sulphate quInine has had n
good call, but owing to the refusal of Congress
10 restore any duty whatever on quinne or GIN
rhonidia, the Americ an manufacturers are only
Offering their product in limited quantities., and
he result ia that the attention of dealers is being
AOw more freely directed 10 foreign Makes
which are giving to the trade entire satisfaction,
being not only cheaper, bnt in purity and eff
cheney equal to any on the market. Leather
dealers report trade fairly active and values well
maintained. Sugars still in strong position
ut the recently advanced quotations. Coffees
are in very uncertain position. The coffee
market in New York ia at least lie lower than
2Oiiees can be put there from Rio, The impress
sion ia that the market must advance, and prices
have not been reduced in this market the be-
lief ts general that the New York al
vance and decline was entirely due to
speculative Influences. The produce markets
are becoming more active. Receipts of eggs
large and prices tending downward. Choice
butter still brings full quotations, and the same
Is true Of poultry. The provision market devel-
ops q very confident tone, Holders of hog pro-
duets very bullish in their talk, and substan-
tal advances IN every line have been estab-
lished The demand from the South and other
consuming districts has been unusually large
and is daily increasing both in volume and num-
her of orders. Receipts of hogs rather light
and prices higher than for some time, while
sS,oeEs e the product are considerably SHORT 81
Vast yeasf al this time.

The grain markets are hardly In as strong posi-
tiOn as for few days past, yet prices reason
