SUGAR SQuIBs.-The sugar rolling seaso,
is rapidly drawing to close, and perhaps
9 majority Of the planters Of this parish
have already concluded the work Of taking
off their crops. The weather still contin.
ues good and the season has been remarka.
bly, propitious in this respect. The yield
has also been excellent, us rule, but the
extremely low prices prevailing in the sugar
market have rendered the crop an unprof-
table one to most producers.
Grinding was finished at Mr.. Kenner's
Hermitage place on Thursday. Only a
small acreage was ground and the yield
was about 100000 pounds. The crop of
| Mrs. j. A. Brands little Picayune place
| was ground at Hermitage and yielded about
$4,000 pounds.
At Mr.. Lemann's Rodriguez place the
seasons work was brought to close on
Wednesday, with total product of 298
hogsheads.
Messrs. Lemann & Lum have two or three
weeks work yet in prospect on their Palo
Alto place.
At Messrs. Lemann & Hanson's Belle
Terre place, in Assumption parish, the last
cane was run through the mill on Thurs
day. The yield is between 675, 600 and $685.
600 pounds, from about 290 acres.
At Peytavin place, belonging to the same
gentlemen, work will wind up for the sea-
son by Wednesday or Thursday next. The
cane of the Gandin place was bought by
the proprietors of Peytavin, and portion
of the crop raised on their Dugas place was
also ground at Peytavin, and the gross
product of the cane run through this mill
will reach million pounds.
The broken steam chest at Mr.. Beirne's
New Hope place twas promptly repaired
and everything is running smoothly there.
The chest did not have its top blown off as
we were told last week, but was simply
cracked at two corners. The are. It's acres
of cane on the New Hope and Ascension
places yet to be ground.
A top roller shaft in the Riyerton sugar
house broke last Monday night, and slight
bag in the boilers occurred at the Clark
place the same night.
Mr.. j. G. CofeId's crop is ustabout 70O,-
GOO pounds of sugar, made from 240 acres
of cane. Mr.. James Teller's yield will
scarcely reach 100000 pounds, we are told,
but it will exceed 100000 considerably.
Messrs. st. Martin & Bujol finished
grinding on Thursday, and we have heard
it stated that they made something over
400, 600 pounds of sugar.
Rolling was concluded at Mr.. Godchaux's
Souvenir place early this week, and the
yield is reported to have reached 100000
pounds.
Considerably more than q million pounds
of sugar will be made by Messrs. Kenner &
Brent at Bowdon place. Grinding will be
concluded in few days.
. The yield at Gibson's Gem place was 2OO,-
600 pounds and work was concluded there
two weeks ago.
Capt. Jno. Z. Nolan's cane crop gave him
LIE, 1000 pounds of fine sugar.
The sugar made at Mrs NJ Israel & Co.'s
Salisbury mill already exceeds a million
pounds and there is at least ten days work
in prospect.

MURDER AND SuIoIDE.-Our young friend
W. T. Rodrigue, who drives cart down
Bayou Lafourche and back every day,
brings US intelligence of horrible double
crime committed on the Daigle place, six
miles below Donaldsonville, on the right
bank of the bayou, last Thursday night. A
colored man, whose name our informant
could not learn, had a quarrel with his
wife and cut her throat with razor. The
woman's cries attracted the neighbors who
surrounded the cabin and attempted to
force an entrance. The murderer sought
to escape, but finding every window guar
ded, he lay down on the bed beside his wife
and deliberately cut his own throat. When
door was forced open and several of the
bolder men rushed in they were Mortified
by the CHASTITY sight of two corpses
stretched out side by side bathed in blood.
