Cotton is growing and blooming.
II the worms do not come there is no
telling how much cotton will be
made in this parish. Cotton is a
strange plant. If the weather is too
dry it will not fruit, if it is too wet
the foliage is too large and it rots.
Not more than one year in ten is ex-
actly good for full yield Of cotton.

We are informed that Mrs. Bled-
soc, of Gibsland, who has been on
visit TO friends in this parish,
brought up and carried to Gibsland
a stalk of cotton over ten feet high.
This seems almost incrediable, but
if the worms keep off tno or three
weeks longer some cotton viii be
higher tLan that. We saw cotton
last Sunday with over 800 forms to
the stalk and over 100 grown bolls.

BALLOON RACES.

Balloon races-the winner being
one which lands nearest to an as
signed spot-have been held in Paris
on two successive Sundays, the pro-
cecds being devoted to charitable
purposes. The first time there were
six, and the second time eight com
pctitors, while next Sunday there
will be ten. The chief prize has
been twice gained by NJ. Louis
GODDARD, son of the celebrated
aeronaut, and himself manager OF
a balloon mandatory. His balloon,
in which he had two fellow passen-
gers, alightcd at La Verriere, ten
kilometres from the belfry Of Chev-
reuse, which, on account of its pro-
minence ut distance, had been
selected as the winning-post. His
competitors landed from fifteen to
twenty-nine kilometres from Chev-
reuse. NJ. GODDARD owed his sue
cess to keeping at n low altitude,
whereas on the previous Sunday he
won by adopting the opposite course.
This shows that there was no chance
and NJ. de FonvielIe, one of the
judges, regards the result as strik-
ing confirmation of the view for
years enunciated by him-namely,
that by skilful handling of the bal
last and valve, balloons may, in
tolerably still weather, be approXi-
mately stecrcd. These races are
likely to effect steady progress in
this direction,-N Y, paper.
