DOGS VOICES.

PeeuIaritles In Tones.
'1t may sound curious to persons
not familiar with the pleasures Of
hunting and who know little OF
nothing of what may call the Ian
guage of dogs-the language they
use not among themselves, but when
they want to address their masters
in the woods say it may sound
curious TO state that the experienced
hunter can tell the kind Of game
traced by Re way the dog barks,
but he can do precisely this very
thing" an old hunter said as he gos-
eiped with a crowd Of friends in one
of the hotels. "Of course / have
reference to the all round dog and
not the dog that may be trained for
particular kind Of sport. There
are deer dogs, bear dogs, fox dogs,
coon dogs, squirrel dogs and other
dogs that have what we could call
among human beings specialties,
and, no matter how tempting the
game, they viii not depart from
their training to chase only a GER
tain kind of animal. But l was just
thinking of the all round dog-the
dog that will chase any old kind Of
game. / recall a dog of this sort
owned by a friend of mine in Ar
kansas, and he was about the most
useful member | ever saw. lie was
good at any old kind of game in
the woods and was intelligent enough
always to know Just what his mas
ter wanted him to hunt. He would
tackle anything, from rabbit to a
bear, and had enough hound in him
to always bark when he struck a
trail. This barking constituted the
language he used when he wanted to
/ notify his master what kind of trail
he had struck, and his master would
know quite as well as if he had call
ed out the name of the thing He
knew by the way the dog barked. If
he merely struck a rabbit track he
made but little noise, and he was
not very noisy on squirrels trail,
though the bark was somewhat diff
ferent from that used when he traii-
ed a rabbit.
$50 the coon yelp and the possum
!, yelp were different as to each other
and different as to other yelps and q
trife louder than the barking on a
rabbit or a squirrel trail. But LEI
him strike a deer trail or a beai
trail-well, you would think the
world was coming to an end. He
would MAJ more noise than a whole
pack would make The bigger th'
game, it seems, the louder he woulC
! bark. And yet his master could tel
from the way the dog intoned hi
yelp whether he was chasing beat
, OF a deer, and he wouldn't have t
wait either to learn the characte

Let Us Go To Work.

We have Published last week
and we again published this week
reports concerning thework Of the
Canal just above town, which was
dug nearly half a century ago,
for the purpose of draining the
Cpress Island basin. AT that time
the people living there felt the
necessity of draining that section,
the people of the parish UNDER
stood then, the necessity of drain
age. and the State saw the good
TO be derived from we'll drained
lands, and undertook to build the
Canal at the large cost to the
State. The canal is nearly CON-
pleted, and was abandoned for res-
sons we do not know, lack of funds
we presume, and the troublous
times that followed the disastrous
civil war.
These lands, as many others in
this parish are in absolute need OF
drainage, it is to be question Of
abundant crop if the drainage is
obtained or starvation if these fine
and productive lands are allowed
10 remain in their present condi-
tion, in favorable season they are
badly drained, in wet seasons they
are very often under water, this
past season the crops were entire
ly lost, in the Prairie Longne Sec
tion every inch of that fine basin
was completely under water. and
nearly every resident of that part
Of the parish had to leave his
home to seek higher lands.
Thousands of dollars worth of
crops were Loss, and these crops
were lost at a time when they pro-
missed abundant resultst Crops
that were maturing were entirely
destroyed by the water that CO.
tered these lands, and those pros /
porous planters now find them
selves with nothing but their lands,
unable to meet their obligations of
this year, crippled to begin the
hext years crop, the csndition is
serious.
We would suggest that our peo-
bic take an active interest to re-
'ieve the situation, drainage dis
