The weather still continues bad,
and farmers are behind with their
work. The prospect for a wheat
crop is rather gloomy at present.
There is general cry among our
farmers for roughness. Owing to the
continued cold weather we have to
feed our stock more than usual.
Our merchants are having a fairly
good trade. Geo. F. Chidsey & Co.
are not through shipping apples yet.
The weather has been so bad they
cannot get their apples from off the
mountain.

| find myself in New Orleans "tak-
ing in" the great show, and a big one
it is truly. Immense is the word.
But have become discouraged be-
cause | cannot find its end. / meet
parties here who have been travelling
in it for Is days, and they tell me
they are just getting started.
Yesterday l witnessed the Mardi
Gras professions, which were grand
indeed. l felt like l had gone through
cotton press, or press of 100000
spectators. A good big audience
/ took trip to Lake Ponchartrain,
also a trip along the Gulf 40 miles,
all of which was delightful.
Mexico takes the lead in exhibits,
it seems to me. Tennessee has a
splendid exhibit. / saw nothing
wanting but her fruit. Warren county
alone ought to put upa better snow
in that line than all the State has.
Let Warren look after that matter.
l cannot enter into any description Of
what is here. The Louisville Expo
sition was only shadow of this.
Besides the show, here is enough to
pay one for trip. Let me close with
a general invitation to come, guaran-
teeing satisfaction. Should you come,
be sure to visit the ship landing and
go aboard the Mexican steamship
Esteban de AntonanO, the finest ship
that ever came to this port. Its hull
is plated with boiler iron. Its state
rooms are ceiled with mahogany and
Italian and Tennessee marble. 1t is
lighted by electricity. Also, go to
West End and see the lake. But you
will see it all when you come. Do
not think of staying here less than a
week. Board can be had at reasona-
