Weaanv1. Crop Bulletin.

The Louisiana weather service, Ia
cooperation with the United States
signal service, for the week ending
Saturday, July II, 1850:
An abundance of sunshine with a
temperature above a seasonal aver
age prevailed III Louisiana during
the past seven days. The sunshine
ranged from SIS to IS p, and the
temperature averaged two degrees
above the normal for the week in the
sugar growing region.
The rainfall consisted Of we'll dis.
trlbuted showers in the northern
portion of the State where it avera-
| gea one and one half inches The
distribution in the southern portion
was much more Irregular and the
amount was but 0.s5 Of an inch.
The foregoing conditions were
favorable in their effects on all crops
excepting portions of the sugar re
gion where too much rain fall in
some localities, interfering to a Ger.
tain extent In with the laying by of
cane. IT,
In the cotton growing section of
the State observers and correspon-
dents report the cotton truiting
nicely. The crop is now we'll clean
ed and the general prospects are all
that could be desired.
The rainfall was rather excessive
in portions Of Red River parish, and
some caterpillars are reported from
there; but in the adjoining parish
Of AvoyeIles it is reported that the
cotton and corn crop will be the
largest that has been made for
years.
The Florida parishes report sea.
sonal and we'll distributed rains dur.
ing the week with excellent crop
prospects generally. From Wash.
ington parish it is reported that the
weed of cotton is probably growing
too rapidly, preventing the torma.
ton and growth of boil.
Reports from the sugar region
State that crops are growing finely,
but the local rains have been very
unequally distributed, some planters
receiving too much whereas others
received none at all. The rice CROP
is reported as doing we'll.

What Shakespeare Does for You.

You read Shakespeare. What do
you get out of Shakespeare? All your
brain is able to hold. 1t depends up
on your brain. If you are great if
you have been cultivated - if the
wings of your imagination have been
spread-if you have had great, free
and splendid thoughts yon have
had the courage to meet all that can
come-you can get an immensely from
Shakespeare. If you have lived nobly
If you have loved with every drop OF
your blood and every fibre of your be.
ing-if you have SUFFERED you have
enjoyed then you can get an immen'
sity from Shakespeare. But if you
have lived poor, little, mean, wasted
barren, weedy life, you get very little
from that immortal man.
So it is from every source of nature
what you get depends upon wha
you are.-IngerSOH
