We have received, with the compli-

ed editor of the Donaldsonville Chief,
an interesting pamphlet setting forth
the advantages, and attrac-
tons of the parish of Ascension to
seekers of new homes. 1t was pre-
pared by II. Thompson Brown at the
instance of the Ascension Branch Su-
gar Planters Association and pub
lished by the Police Jury of that par
ish. 1t contains Il vast fund Of useful
information concerning the tOpogra-
ply, history and material OF
Ascension, and is calculated to attract
the attention Of home seekers to the
wealth and infinite possibilities of that
fertile parish.
The Police jury of Ascension de-
serves credit for such public spirit
and enterprise. The pamphlet was
printed at the office Of the Chief and
presents Il model of neat execution.

We learn by the New Orleans dailies
that Archbishop Janssens confirmed
over 600 persons in st. Martinsville
on Tuesday last. 1t had been intended
to unveil the monument to the vener-
able Father Jan on the occasion of the
Archbishop's first visit to quaint old
st. Martinsville, but owing to the in
completeness of the pedestal it was
impossible to carry out the programme.

on our people and is destined to &C
complish much good in the new sphere
to which he has been elevated by the

The bayou has risen sufficiently to

and nearly all the freight has taken

be otherwise, in the face of the huge

head and front at Lafourche Crossing.
As long as the railroad will favor one

and planters, it cannot expect these to
Mtronize its line when they il do
Otherwise. If the railroad would
consult its own interests, the tiatboat
monopoly would soon he Il thing of the
