very dangerous to the sugar inter

the culture of which incurs so great
an expense, is now selling at a
price that barely justifies the out

LOOK 10 THE FUTURE

u TAI OF Tue wafer IN tue basin

still high at Vicksbnrg and water
pouring through many crevasses,
is an evidence that the Atchafalaya
river is almost large enough, be

the water, and by . moderate iu
crease of capacity would transport
all the foods that have submerged
such q large extent Of country and
destroyed 80 many thousands of
acres Of growing crops, within the
last three years.
The question how to obtain that
increased capacity of outlet for this
river is the II that will rise up
betolo a thoughtful mind.
Judge Goode, in a charge to the
Grand Jury Of st. Mary Parish,
recommended that Ba,eman's Is.

There is u strong current, down
that stream, at least, during high
water. At a time when the river
is full and discnarging the water
that is filing up the basin above,
the destruction of Bateman's Is
land, and the widening of the At
c~hafalaya from the Bay to the Gulf
could be easily effected by a judi
cious use of Dynamite or Gunpow>
der.
We have never examined the
banks of that river below Berwick,s
Bay, but evidences are plentiful on
bank of that body of water
to show that the soil is partly com
posed Of the same soil as is found
on the banks OF Red River, which
stream very likely, in past centu

DILUTE, Dec. 2.-The steamship n. e.
Fairbank, which has arrived at this port from
Cleveland, reports having seen the Can adam
steam large Erin on the rocks at Keweenaw
point, near the point where the STEAMER SEQ
tia became q total loss. The vesse
was laden with long lumber.
ana bound from Barsga for
the south shore of Lake Superior. The cargo
was consigned to the Canadian Pacific rail-
way. The steamer was pounding badly on
the rocks, and is thought to have gone to
pieces by this time. She is owned at st.
GATHERINGS, Ont, and is valued at about $50
600. Her cargo was worth about IS. OO0
Only two weeks ago the Erin's consort, the
schooner Mary Battle, broke away from her
during snow storm and was wrecked within
nifty miles Of the place where that vessel is
ashore. The Erin's crew had succeeded in
reaching the shore, and were huddled to-
gether around fire which they had built on
the beach. The weather was extremely cold
and heavy gale of wind was blowing, &C
companied with flurues of sleet and snow.
On account Of the shallow water the Fasrbank
was unable to render any assistance.

Mr.. James Sheehan, a Minneapolis mer-

New Rockford is in Foster county, in which

whom were in favor of Darlington. The
county commissioner from New Rockford
came, but was not admitted. He was locked
