Sugar and Cotton Prospeets.
The following paragraph, taken from the Plaque
e Sentinel, of last' Saturday, affords melancholy
eonfirmation of reports that have reached us from
variou quarters of the sugar district :.
We hreereeaptd tolearn a few droa since of the utter hcfe

learn mehy aeegolno largely in thLe latter busnest--also.o Bayou
tarangooln; ohltern not a particle of .ugar will Lc raised.
ty reference tro the annual report of the Auditor of
Public Accounts, made at the commencement of the
last teosion>o tohre Legisltre, we find the crop of
,the Parish of Ibrrville, for the year 1854, set down
iss follows: Sugar, hhds., 35,677; molasies, bbls.,
8t,3.1 ' corn, bushels, 288,603. Neither cotton or
wany other productio is mentioned ! In this respect,
most of the assessors of tlh country parishes fail in
th discharge of their duties ; and only report to the
Auditor two or three of the prominent crops of the
aoli in their jurisdiction. Their ctourns should be
moch fuller than they now are.. Until a reform is
effected, we will be unoble to tell accurately the
wealth or the productions of the commonwealth.
In West Baton Rouge, the sugar prospcots are
nearly as unfavorable as they are iu Iberville. By
reference to the Auditor's Report we find the crops
of that parish, for 1854, enumerated thus : Cotton,
bales, 1,034,; corn, bushels, 181,045; sugar, hhds.,
298,375; molasses, bils., 35,e60. These figures make
the aggregate crop of the two parishes for the year
mentioned smun .o s follows: Sugar, hlhds., 56,052 2;
molasses, bbils., 101,373. If, in 1856, the crop comes
within fifty per cent. of that of 1854, many intelli
gent ,planters with whom we have conversed will be
4greeatly disappointed. That there will be a large
lu0 ha . tihe growth of cotton and corn, there can
be no doubt. Other parishces are not so bad off; but
it may regarded as a fixed fact that there will be a
general falling off throughout the sugar region.
S" ugarwill be sugar," iext'year, beyond a doubt.
Rev. Dr. newey's Lecturee.
Dr. Dewey delivered a very brilliant, philosophical
and eloquent address last evening, at Dr. Clapp's
church, which was largely attended and listened to
with much interest. We are able only to glve a synop.
sis, from want of room.
The subject was the progress and necessity of evil-
which was demonstrated, first, by a statement of the
case; second, by a development of the theory; and
'third, by a consideratlon of the bearings under it.
The. lrstpointse ntered upon were the degrees, state
and nature of evil ; what we can and what we cannot
know concerning it. The wonder of our being was
considered, and the mystery appertaining to it. Hlis
tory misleads ps, as it treats of the tragedy, and not
the comedy of life. Judging by a nation's language
and literature: is. the best way of judging a people,
and the Sanscrit and.Arabic are the most useful in
that respect.,
Mankind lives only in the aggregate. What one
,man has settled for himself, he has settled for all
men.
Natural and moral evil can be cleared up only by
the future life. Limitations belong to every created
system, since limitation in itself implies imperfection.
Evil is not desirable, but it is impossible that it should
be excluded from a system like our own. That Adam
would have been kept from evil if it had been best,
is, e converso, as much as to say that it was not for
the best that he should be. Evil is of two kinds:
natural, or physical, and that which is moral. The
value and uses of physical evil were shown, deterring
as from other evil deeds, etc. If there were no pain
human nature would sink into moral perdition. Un
der this head free agency was mentioned, and its
ineonsistence with the other requirements of our
nature "lhown. When a man does wrong, his con
science announces that wrong, and, as man is, free
dom from evil could only be afforded by annihilation.
A. rational existence commences with infancy, and
no other state of things could have been, notwith
standing the theories that have been propounded.
,God might have made a man without liability to err,
'list where would free agency have been. The doc
trine was then carried into some of its practical bear
ings to show that tho.Iforgias and other human mon
stem could not have been made better without curtail
ung their moral agency. There must be a system of
general laws to control men's movements fittingly. If
there were an immediate punishmentfor every otlbnce,
God would only be a divinely detective police officer.
There are some' general laws, however-such as
hunger, cold, pain, etc.-that cannot be overlooked.
There is something within us above our own will, to
obey which is a pleasure; to disobey which is un
equalled agony..
A very brilliant peroration, making some general
application of the previously enuncilted'princilles,
ended the address;
The next lecture will be on Friday evening, con
cerning the progress of the world.

F'oUfIhO District Schools.
The annual eihibitlon otthe Public Schools of the
Fourth Disitet 'came off yesterday, in the Methodist
Church, onFelicity isteot. The exhibitioin was no
Iis entertaining and beautiful as a spectacle thanit
wfns ritifying as an evidence of the continued ad
-vancement of education in that section of the city.
The church was densely crowded in every.parot; pu
pils, in their gayest attire, with ribbons and rosettes,
'bdtifjyi, lt'j'awst below, anatht'indies ocepying
the galteriesi Gentlemen had no chance to see much.
xeiibair wiAs Ifio drall by half; buotthere is no
larger aecommodaition for such an exhibition in thfe
F'ourth District-so nobody had a right to complain.
We were not fortunate enough to get a seat within
bearipg distance of the exercises, or at least of the
feminine portion of them, copnsequently we cannot
particularize the merlits of each performance, as it
would have pleased us'to do.
The exercises were opened with an invocation to
the Throne of Grace,by the Rl.. J.B. Walker. They
then progressed in the following order, songs being
given at intervals, and with the greatest sweetness,
by the High School girls:
"Salutatory Address," by Master Gee.. W Wang;
"Life, a Dream;" by Miss Isabella S. Dewees; "Avail
ability in Politics,"' by Master Beij. 0. Elliott;
"French Compositionh," by Mins H. A. Blanchard;
"New Orleans-her Future," by Master Sam. F.
Green; "Something to Do," by Miss Margart J.
Tooley; 'Addrec in behalf of the Fourth District
Library and Lyceum Society," by its representative
elect, by Master Purvis Jenkins; "The Sun Pay," by
.Miss Martha A. Harris; "The Progress of our Coun
try," by Master Win. T. Norment; '"Importance of
Education," by-Miss Fannie Rayne; "The Real and
the Ideal," by Miss Dora K. Richards; "The Rtepub
lie," by Master Golumbuse Deacon; The Anger of
Kent (Shakspeare),by Masters Johnson, Wang, Green
Norment; "Our April Garland," by Iirs Ella Sun
derland; Valedictory, by Miss Lorinda J. Green;
Valedictory, by Master John Johnson; Song, Fare
ye well, our much-loved Schoolmates; Delivery of
Diplomas and Address to Graduates, by the Superin
tendent, MFr. Parbham; Benediction, by NRev. I. J.
Henderson.
The best recitation.was that of Master Cohlmbus
Deacon', on"The Republic." It was capitally given;
was as-frequently inteirupted by applause as if it had
been a speech at a political meeting; and at its con
clusion drew foith a perfect storm of bouquets frri
all part's of the church. Next in merit was
addresseof Master Purvis Jenkins, in behalf of the
Fourth District Lyceum and Library, He also re
ceived an atfndaiit hihbver of roses. All those, in
fact, who took part in the, exhibition, were honored
with bouquets, in proportion to the enthusiasm they
excited; for, as this is the season of flowers, nearly
every spectator carried a bunch,and it was a pleasant
thing, Iat the close, to notice how completely the
young ladies and gentlemen had gathered them
some of them coming out with their fragrant trophies
piled chin-high.
The composition of Miss Dora K. Richards, entitled
the "Real and the Ideal," we were enabled to hear
partially, and to discover that it was a sweet poetic
production, beautifully read.
The sword-scene from Shakspearc--" The Anger
of Kent "-was very cleverly rendered, both in speech
aid action, by Masters Wang, Johnson, Green and
Norment.
We appoends as worthy of-perusal, the address of
Master Purvis Jenkins,in behalf of the Fourth Dis
trict Lyceum and Library Society:

Albany Charter Election.
The municipal election in Albany, New York, took
place on the 8th inst. Although the Democrats re
ceived the assistance of the "Black (hearted) Re
publicans" it was doubtful, according to our latest
dates, whether they had succeeded in ;electing their
candidate for Mayor! The contest was extremely
close. Thus having the advantage, it is no wonder
the Democrats elected most of their other candidates.
The following item from the Knickerbocker-a
Seward, Black Republican journal-should open the
eyes of the Southern people, It fully explains the
means whereby New York Democratic triumphs are
frequently achieved:
-'The nemoerat will have a rlear orking mlJnrity- in the
Cocnesl Cecoolil. They S.o, -e','lrrl (,i, cric,,,h t5r ,,qh v..
jcbli¢tn ruev,. Let us ee how liberal theby io bh to republi
cans when the spolls are to be diltribhted. "
They will he, we opine, just as "liberal" to the
" Republicans, " as is consistent with future political
profit. They will give them three-fourthsof the offices
at their command, until November, if they can thereby
induce the abolition phalanx to vote en masse against
Millard Fillmore! Anything and everything to beat
him. Nothing but such a combination can prevent Ncr.
F. from carrying the Empire State. And we doubt
whether even it would succeed-as the American
candidate has an immense majority of the intelligent,
conservative and patriotic, on his side.
UnIon Jockey Club Races.
Yesterday was an exceedingly warm day, and partly from
that and partly from other cau.ce, the attendane at dhe race was
small.
There weretlo entries, Lo Dame. Blanche and UIine, for
purse of $10 ; mile heats. Before tie race La Dame had the
call-b.ts beinig booked at three to one on her.
The race waspreceded by a very brilliant ad patriotic eulogy
of Irish horses, by a couple from the " irst gem of the say,"
who attrated to themeelves much more interest than either of
the racers. "To the divil wld yourLeeomtes an' your Lexming
tonl," said one ; "sure, an' hav'at I meelf teen em run it,
an' trul plow horses at that, mile a minuit, au' say nothinb
about ie s beiu' runnin " The discussion was interrupted by the
t-ap of the drum.
FtlstEaTr .-The send off was good ; but, from the start, Le
Dame eviced an inclination to lead. At the half mile she wts
hbout oneeleugthaheadr ; with bets of four to one offered that
*he would win, and no takers. She came home wnbner in 1:49t.
sEco~rlle rl .-All the betting before the beat was, of course,
In favor of a Dame. Undlne, however, took the lod and kept
it to the lt of the back stretch, when she was collared, and, af.
ter a desperate pall that lasted to the dietanc fll, was ptased.

WOLFE'S
SCHIEDAM AROMATIC
This celebrated beverage is manufactured at the factory of the
undersigned, at Schiedam, IIolland. ie is the sole importer, as
well as the nxclesive manufacturer of the article, and no preps
ration bearing the name of "Schnappe," that is not procured
either from his establishment ir New York, or from his agents
in other cities, Is genuie or reliable.
It is made from barley of the finest quality, selected with great
cure from the products of the most celebrated grain-growing
districts, is flavored with the essence of the aromatic Juniper
Berry of Italy, and ie rectified by a peculiar process, which ex
pels from the spirit every acrid particle.
As a means of preventing and correcting the disagreeable and
often dangerous effects produced upon the stomach and bowels
by a change of water-a visitation to which travelers, new set
tiers and all unacclimated persons are liable-tihe Schiedam
Aromatic Schnapps will be found absolutely infallible; while,
in cases of Dropsy, Gravel, Obstruction of the Kidneys, Dis
eases of the Bladder, Dyspepsia, Ague and Fever, and General
Debility, it is recommended mo.t emphatically by the most dis
tinguished members of the medical profession.
I wish the public to understand the Schlnapps is not sold by
the gallon or pipe. It is only sold in quart and pint bottles, in
cases of one dozen quarts and two dozen pints, each bottle en
veloped in yellow paper, with my name on the bottle, cork, and
a fac stmile of my signature on the label.
For sale at all the respectable Druggists and Grocers.

CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.
Since the introduction of my Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps
into tile United States, a number of Liquor Mixers in New York,
Boston and Philadelphia, have been engaged in putting up mixed
and poisonous Ginin green cases and jugs, and to be palmed
off upon the unwary for my genine Snapps. I have directed
my agents to institute legal proceedings against all persons who
they may ascertein to be engaged in this most atrocious system
of deception, and I call on the press and the public to aid them
in their effort to remedy so great an evil.
UDOLPHO WOLFE,
CAUTION TO PERSONS
WHO DRINK AT
sawr6 asonnld fotesLTr 2
Numerous complaints are made of persons who keep ars on
steamboats and in Hotels, who fill my empty bottles with com
monGin and sell it to the unsuspecting for my
Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps.
I would therefore advise all who drink the Scnapps at such
places, to mtrk the appearance of the bottle; and if the outside
wrapper or label should be defaced, to refuse to drink, unless a
fresh bottle is opened.

EXtract of a letter from Norfolk, V., dated Jan. 17, 156:
One of lerring's celebrated Fire-proof Safes was in Adams'
ExpressOmce when the building was burned, several weeks
ago. It remained buried in the rubbish until Thursday,
when it was taken out. The fire, on the occasion alluded
to, was one of the fiercest we ever saw, and when the chest
was found, after] a lapse of frt days, it was surrounded
by embers, glowing brightly. When opened, thR papers and
other articles it contained were found to be ound and generally
In gsd condition, thus ,,]fording another proof of the aecurity
and superiority of these safe. The one alluded to may be ieen
at the warehouse of 3fleare. Rowland A& ros., who are ageont
for the makers. It shows clearly the evldelce of a severe teel
of its incombustible qualities, when its elxterior wa red-hot in
the burning furnace that roared around it, and amid ihe embers
that glared arolind it for hours, days and weeks.
The undersigned are Sole Agenls for the sale of the above
unsued Safe, A full supply constantly on hand.
