FOR THE WEEK ENDING SATURDAY,
MARCH Is, 1890.

The season from January 1st to March
1st was noted for its high temperatures
in Louisiana, the excess averaging ten
degrees daily in the northern section,
and nine degrees in the southern sec
ton. The rainfall for the same period
averaged a deficiency of slightly over a
fourth Of an inch in North Louisiana,
and nearly five inches in South Louis
lana. Since March 1st there has been
an average deficiency of about seven
degrees daily in the temperature of
North Louisiana and five degrees in
South Louisiana. The week ending on
fife eth was particularly cold, the tenn
perature during tho past week being
nearly the normal in South Louisiana,
and deficient by bnt about two or three
degrees in the northern section. The
rainfall since March 1st has exceeded
the usual amount falling in that time
by about one and half inches in North
ern and Central Louisiana, and has been
deficient by about q like amount in
South cast Louisiana.
Heavy rains have fallen and Excess
siye clondiness prevailed during the
past week III all sections of the State
except in the south east portion.
With these great rainfalls in North

rally too vet for corn planting and this
work will be retarded to some extent.
Some corn had been planted and was
up prior to March 1st, but the cold wave
OF the 1st to the Sd killed it as we'll as
all other vegetation. This coid-way
gave temperatures as low as 29o in
North Louisiana, % in Central Louis
lana ond 27o in South Louisiana.
The effects of the cold-wave of the
1st to the 3D. in South Louisiana were to
seriously damage or kill vegetation
generally. Fruit and gardens suffered
the greatest disaster, but sugar cane
proves not to have been injured as
greatly as was feared, and promises we'll
again. The spring plant is reported as
coming up nicely aud the stnbble and
fall plant will do we'll with warm, sun
shiny weather after the copious rains OF
the past week.
Present indications are for cool sun
shiny weather for to-day and to-mor-
row with q rising temperature there
after.
Favorable temperature conditions dur
ing the past week were accompanied by
unfayorable features in the shape of an
excessive rainfall and a clouded sky
that netted barely fifteen per cent. of
sunshine for the week.
The Mississippi river will continue at
a very high stage for the entire coming
week.

THE SPINNING WHEEL.

Iwould could a-wooing go,
Quick would fare unto the hall
Where Bessie, with her cheeks aglow,
HUNS with the wheel against the wall;
Aud down before the feet I'd kneel
OF Bessie at her spinning wheel
The sunlight CLEANS the hills athwart,
To color roses. wheat and wine;
So down the valleys of my heart
Do bonnie Bessie's blue eyes shine.
They shine On me until I reel
Like her own restless spinning wheel.
Fair Bessie with the golden hair,
Sweet Bessie with the deep blue eyes,
Is twisting for my heart snare
Each time the slender spindle flies,
A snare for me which shall feel,
Caught by the fate which turns the wheel.
And so must a-wooing go,
And quick betake me to the hall
Where ivy creeps and roses blow,
And Sol filings kisses DER the wall,
And at the dainty feet must kneel
CT Bessie at her spinning wheel
