CROPS.

This parish, as have also other parts
of the State, has gotten entirely too
much rain for the good of crops OF all
kinds. Rain has fallen every day since
Sunday week ago, making to-date
eleven days of rain fall. Such spell
for the latter part Of July or the first
of August is rather unprecedented in
deed. Another thing that is regarded
as being somewhat peculiar and ont
of the ordinar, is that I'm the summer
very little rain usually falls in the
morning and at night but comes in the
evening between three and six O'Clock,
accompanied by more or less thunder
and lightning. The recent rains nave
been heaviest in the morning and at
night, with practically no thunder and
lightning at ALI We are having some
"cool days in August" and taking the
situation all in all, it is spelf quite
out of the ordinary. Cotton Is she'd
did badly and the pSrish would have
Jared far better had not 1t been for the
continued rains: We expect to see and
hear OF q world OF damage to crops
unless the situation clears up and that
very soon.

7. H. HARRIS TO SUCCEED
ASWELl.

A special to the Times-Democrat
from Baton Rouge; under date of Srd
inst, says:
Conformation received here to- day
from authoritative sources in New Or
leans is to the effect that the FIRST act
of Gov. Sanders on his return to the
Capital tomorrow will be to appoint
Thos. H. Harris of Claiborne parish
as the successor of Jas. B. Aswell,
State Superintendent of Education,
who rendered his resignation to the
Governor to accept the presidency of
the State Normal School. The APP
pointment of Mr.. Harris is regard
ed here as most graceful act on the
part of the Governor, as the appoint
ment is said to be strictly non-politi-
cal, and based entirely upon the fit
ness of the appointee for the position,
the Executive pursuing the policy OF
not allowing political affiliations to en-
ter into the school system of the State.
