LATTER DAY SAINTS on BAYOU CASOTTE.
Last Sunday being Il bright, pl.as-
ant day, we drove out to Bayou Ca
sottc TO hear Rev. f. l.. Scarclif, a
Latter Day Saint Elder, preach and
immersc a few new converts to his
branch of the church. Services were
held in the house of Mr.. Joseph Spi-
Ger, and ii was crowded to its utmost
capacity. NJ. ScarcIif preached a
very plain, practical sermon, and he
took occasion f. deny that his church
believed or taught polygamy, or was
in any way Mormon in its doctrines,
etc. At the close of the sermon the
following were buried in the waters
of Bayou Casotie:
Mr. j. i. Leforce, (Lolo), Mr.. Jo-
srph Spicer and wife, Miss Louise
Lcforcc.

she be confined until she could be sent
TO an asylum.
The weather continues uneXcep-

some more frightful Prngnoslications
