AN UNBALANCED MIND.

The NaniIra Refugee is Sent to
the Asylum.
Emada Yosaki, the Japanese who
created a sensation some months
ago by escaping from Jail, and who
found refuge on the Japanese
cruiser Naniwa, was committed to
the insane asylum Tuesday by
Judge Foster. He began to show
symptoms of insanity on the I'd
inst. He has not slept for nearly a
week, and in the opinion of DIR.
Cooper his unbalanced mind is due
to insomnia.
The japanese was sentenced at
Waikiki, Maui, on June 18th, 1892,
to twenty-one years at hard labor
for murder.

TYPHooN IN THE HAGyAN STRAITS.
On June 24th, what was an
nounced as small depression in
the Tonkin gulf developed into
typhoon which blew with consider
able force in the Hainan straits
and along the south coast. The
two steamers Hanoi and Freir,
which arrived at Hollow on the
18th, reported extensive damage to
native craft, both vessels bringing
in fishermen whom they had res
cued from wrecked junks. There
was a tremendous sea running and
with full steam ahead only two
knots an hour could be made. At
3 o'clock in the afternoon a float
ing wreck was sighted and seven
men who were clinging to the bam-
bOos of the sails were rescued. |
Later on another seven, the re-
of eleven, were, similarly |
discovered and conveyed on board. |
A large number dismasted junks
were sighted on the way to Hollow
and in the evening a little boy was
picked up, who said that he was
the sole survivor of a family of
eleven. The Hanoi landed thir-
.een rescued men and the Hal
Dhong brought in another nine.

BOLD PIRATES.

The native officials at Shanghai
have received news from Ningpo to
the effect that Captain Pei, of the
gunboat Yuank'ai while cruising
after pirates between Taichow isl
and and the Chusan archipelago,
came across a band of them near
the island of Taishan, and landing
q body of men in chase was cap
tured by the pirates, who have
escaped with him into the hills. A
telegram having been received to
this effect on the 21st ult. by Tao
tai Wa of Ningpo, this official start
ed the same day for Chinghai in a
gunboat for reinforcements and has
already proceeded to Tinghai with
two gunboats to consult with Gen
eral Chen of that island about re-
covering the captured captain. The
evening Of the departure of Taotai
WI from Ningpo for Tinghai also
witnessed burglary in his yamen,
the thieves having lowered them
selves through the roof of the trea-
sure room and made away with
considerable sum of money. The
explanation of the daring theft,
which was not discovered until the
next day, is that the Taotai carried
with him all his bodyguard, leav-
ing his yamen comparatively I'M
protected.

EXPLOSION AT CANTON.

\ terrific explosion at the gov.
eminent gunpowder magazine al
Canton, occurred on the afternoon
of June 9th. About five o'clock
the inhabitants of the Sam I'm Ii
district, in which the magazine
stands, we're startled by tremen-
dous report which was heard over
a large area and followed by
enormous volumes of smoke quite
darkening the sky in the immedi-
ate neighborhood, Every building
in the vicinity was completely
wrecked and in a village on the
opposite side of the stream which
divided it from the factory, several
hundred houses were shattered.
The total number of houses de-
stroyed is Appropriated at 400,
and although no idea has been
formed of the loss of life this must
be considerable, while it is estimat-
ed that 800 persons were more or
less injured. The catastrophe origi-
mated, it appears, from a cook house
near the magazine which caught
fire and rapidly spread to the dan
gerous material stored close by. On
hearing the explosion the inhabi-
tants of the villages rushed out in
great alarm and proclaimed the
disaster by the beating of gongs
and drums, urging the villagers to
run into the fields for their lives.
The mandarins were quickly in
formed and troops were sent for. A
number of Chinese doctors and
one European were speedily on the
scene of the explosion rendering
assistance to the wounded.

Cotton as a Surplus Crop.

The Homer Guardian Journal de-
clares that the Southern farmers can
keep the price of cotton up if they
will not plant too large an acreage in
it, but make it mainly a surplus crop.
"That,o it declares, is the only way to
enhance the price of the staple, and it
is the policy which the Southern farm
ers should adopt and adhere to-"
There can be no doubt of this pro.
position, and we trust the farmers will
fully appreciate the situation, They
suffered from the low price of
cotton for two years, and the present
season began most inauspiciously for
them and threatened even harder times
for the South. 1t was only when it be-
came known that the farmers had full
" carried out their promise to decrease
the acreage in cotton, and that the
weather had couspired to still further
reduce the crop, and cotton advanced
in consequence, that the financial stu
tion improved, the depression disap-
peared and prosperity returned. The
farmers will have themselves to blame
if they do not profit by this experience,
keep their cotton acreage down, get
remunerative prices for the staple and
devote most of their land to other pro-
ducts. This is what the press has been
advising them to do for years but
they paid no attention to this advice
and suffered for it. They have now
adopted the policy suggested to them,
and it's immediate effect is to give new
life, vigor and profit to Southern agri-
o. Times Democrat.

st. Landry and Immigration.

st. Landry is in a latitude which
claims almost q total exemption from
severe cold weather. Often vegetation
grows throughout the winter months,
and the coolest snaps will not exceed
the bracing GOODNESS of early spring
DAYS. When we do happen to have
freezing cold, it is of such short dura-
ton that it is scarcely felt and seldom
does much injury. In summer the i'll
tensity of the heat is so much modified
by the cool Gulf breezes that the wea-
ther never becomes sweltering and dan
gerously oppressive as in higher lati-
tudes. Deaths by sunstroke are I'M
known with us. Hence, the salubrity
of our climate is unsurpassed by any
portion of the United States. We. are
free from the rigor of colder sections,
with the dreaded heated terms which
visit their summers.
We have many advantages which at
tach to the luxuriance of the tropics in
vegetation, yet are exempt from its tor
rid heat, malignant epidemics and cy-
clonic disturbances. Our soil is fertile,
and very productive in cotton, sugar
cane, corn, rice, potatoes and all kinds
of vegetables. The ramie and jute
plants grow well here, and are destined
to become prominent factors in the in
dustry of our near future. Apples,
peaches, pears, ounces, pomegranates,
Japan plums, other varieties of plums,
grapes, strawberries, and last, but not
least oranges, all produce we'll here.
This is the best poor mans country in
the world because, with only ordinary
industry, he can make a good living. If
q man is active in his labor, intelligent
in its application and economical in his
earnings, he will soon be independent
and eventually rich.
Our broad prairies, with their rich
crops, make this, par excellence, a splen
did stock country. We have thousands
of acres of land, at cheap rates and on
easy terms, awaiting enterprising immi-
grants. Government lands can be en-
tered at $l.25 per acre. Rich, but un-
improved lands can be bought At 81 to
$5 ger acre according to location. I'm
proved lands rated from SIS to $15 per
acre, according to circumstances and
locality. Public school lands can be
leased at a very low rental. We repeat,
thst st. Landry can offer as strong in
ducements to immigration rs any part
of Louisiana ; nay, as much as any part
of the South. Let them f:st CONT ana
look q. vul splendid section of the coun-
try, and we do not hesitate to say that
they will be pleased.

Southwestern Louisiana.
Extent and Population.

The section o country lying south of
the 3lst parallel west of the Atehafa-
laya and east of the Sabine rivers may
be said to constitute the territory which
is called Southwestern Louisiana. It
has a population of about 200,0 900
souls, and includes within it's confines
the whole of the parishes of Acadia,
Calcasieu, Cameron, Iberia, Lafayette,
St. Landry, St. Martin and St. Mary,
and the southern portion of the par
ishes of Avoyelles, Rapides and Yer
non.
Typographical and Geographical Charac-
teristics.
The general conformation of the
country is level, except in the north
westerly portion, where it is somewhat
billy and contains one of the finest for
eats of pine and the hardwoods to be
found in the United States. Here
abound all the varieties of oak. cy-
press. beech, maple. poplar. gum, ash,
sycamore, magnolia, etc. South of this
and onward to the Gulf the land is
prairie, except along it's eastern linn
its, where it is swamp, and though of
unsurpassed fertility and Astounding
with a vast expaDse of magnificent
timber, il is subject to overflow from
the freshets of the Mississippi and Red
Rivera. This immense tract of prairie
land is above overflow and stands
generally on what is known geological |
~ as the bluff formation. IL is about
40 feet above the overflow waters of
tbs Mississippi river, and offers the adj
vantages Of good and healthfnl homes
to such as desire TO cast their lots in
this favored section of the State. This
prairie region is not like some of the
great prairies Of Texas, and the West,
almost absolutely devoid of fuel and
water. III ID interspersed with streams
OF running water along whose banks
timber enough is generally found to
supply the wants of the inhabitant in
improving his lands and affording him
q constant supply of fuel for present
and future consumption. The blend
ing of prairie and woodland through
this section furnishes the eye with
