A coiored man known as Claiborn
Wilson, has been arrested and incarce-
rated in the parish Jail, charged with
the murder of his wife, whose lifeless
body was discovered on the floor of
their cabin, at Bellevue. on Wednesday
morning of last week.
Sheriff Fontenot in company with
Coroner Litteli, visited the scene of the
tragedy ON Tuesday last, and caused
the remains of the victim TO be eS-
l,umed hut decomposition had made
such progress with the body, that Moth
ing. as to the cause Of death could be
determined on. Circumstantial evil
dence, however. is very strong against
the accused, aud the presumption is,
that he is guilty Of q most atrocious
crime. The Grand Jury at the next
criminal term of Court. will investigate
the case.

Dedicated to tho memory Of SaM Powell
Ones more, my Sam, tho hour delightfully."-

Arrives when c.amorous noiso disturbs me

When the rude din OF the Hanna is hushed.
When worldly bustio Is no longer heard,
Leaving the world and nature to mo.
How indolently opes the eye of day,
How dun mud dusky Is its early ray.
As the fond infant wakens from sweet rest,
Rrcathes tender whispers over the parent
So In their softes. notes the caa,horea
Salute their mother earth with gentiest
How solemn, yet how sweet. this silence
While all aroana mo sleep or fret with
dreams,
While pride aud bigotry alike reciine,
While ayarice and malice lie suPine.
While from all human observation free
How sweet, my maker, to commune with
thee.
Now on the borders Of the scattered cloud.
The purple tints announce tho advancing
day
Now ON tho gil.led vines the mellow CLEAN
oftight appears az heralds of tho sun.
A solitary footstep echoes now
Through the long streets; tho holy calm Ia
over.
Let mo retire. ere some poor slave OF vice,
With furnished, countenancc shall pain my

Or, what is worse, ere the cold hypocrite,
With freezing apathy, shall cross my path
Aud Iueneh the warmth that antmates my
