A lot Of dirty, impudent, and
sinking vagabonds, claiming to be
Turks, composed Of men. women,
children, monkeys, donkeys, and
bears, we're in Thibodaux this week.
OF all burlesques gu humanity,
they take the lead. Clothes, hands
nor faces have been washed for
six months, and the only pride
they seem to possess is in trying
how ragged and filthy they can
present themselves. The women,
with a monkey, will walk right in
to the parlor without u word and
commence whining for money, oft
en- with an unfortunate infant in a
bag strapped to their mothers
back. The authorities made them
leave here after one days expe
gience.
Our cotemporszies should look
out for them. We do not say that
they would steal or rob. Our stove
was not red hot, otherwise We
would have tested the point.

FIRE.-On last Monday a vacant
store on the Coulou plantation, one
mile above Thibodaux, was burned.
The fire occurred.about midnight.
The building had been cleaued
out the day previous for the use of

The JAMESON CREvAsSE.-One
week ago, it was believed that the
JamisOn crevasse was or would be
closed etfec;ually. But GU Satur
day the work began to give way,
and an opening was effected, that
admitted the passage of a great
deal of water. This having been the
third time such a misfortune occur
red. the works were abandoned.
The water rose. when the break
was closed, from the time work was
commenced, when it stood II feet
3 iuches above low water mark, to
10 feet 3 inches, being within 4 in
ches of the highest point attained
this Spring. Since the works gave
way, the bayou has fallen 10 Is
feet at which it now stands.
AS it now stands, the people OF
Lafourcle, on the west bank, from
Thibodaux down, will be able to
make good crops and We are told
that they are earnestly doing so.
The prospect is good, for such a
backward season.
The Bayou Blue settlers are also
free from any danger for the pres
emit year. Above Thibodaux, same
side, everything is all right. Brus
lee GuilloJ which was under water
is now nearly uncovered, and the
people may yet make subsistence
for themselves and families.
