Last evening two women were thrown

us stalk of cane coming from his

our friend Morrow, when the next

Mr.. Bugg, the overseer of the
Keystone plantation, two canes, a

measured 5 feet 2 inches, and the

the samples are on exhibition at

Since the last heavy rains the

The st. Martins Oil Works at
this place are making the arrange
ments to burn oil under all their
boilers, and have already placed
two immense tank on the bayou
side of the mill, in order to unload
the oil by gravitatioh. This CON-
pany uses a great deal of fuel, with
their large plant here, and their
four large ginneries at Loreau-
Vile, Breaux Bridge, Sunset and
Arnaudville, and if the oil gives
them satisfaction, the coming sea-
son. they will burn oil at all their
ginneries.
The recent rains have given
new vigor to vegetation and all
plants are growing in manner
that is most remarkable, and we
note in the private yards, the
church square, the cemetery, and
upon our streets and side walks a
growth of grass that requires at
tention. Now that the cattle are
not allowed to roam at large in
the town, under penalty of a fine,
we can reasonably expect to see a
a remarkable growth Of tall'grasses
within the town limits, unless they
be cut down, which we hope the
town authorities will do.
