that by sending th, ir orders to our
oflice, in due season, they can have
,ll the papers they require, stamped
with the name of the boat and officers.
Our friends in the interior, whose
mail jacilities will not admit of their
subsaribing to a Semi-Weekly paper,
are renminded that the S/hrcweport
W'eekly News is the cheapelst and
best paper published in this section.
We desire getting a large list of sub
scribers and put the price low, to suit
the dull titnes. Scud on three dul- ,
lars for'one year. Weekly amade up
from the Seamti- Weekly, and contains
editorials, choice selections, reports
of the New Orleans and Shimeveport

telegrams. Address the editor of
this paper. tf
Our friend, iMr. P. F. L. Frank, is

Diamonds, and the tilnest ladies' and t
gentlemen's jewelry, etc-, which he t

Thanks to 31. Broadwell, master,
and H. Marks, clerk of the steamer
Bob Boy, for New Orleans papers.
The officers of the steamer Louis
D'Or have our thanks for late New a
Orleans papers.
The swift and splendid steamer
Louis D'Or, in charge of the experi- e
enced Capt. Cheney Johnson, with m
Messrs. Sim P. Smith and E. Groves I
in the office, leaves at 5 o'clock this t
evening for the city. Her accom
modations are of the very best.
If you need boots and shoes, call 1
on J. B. Lewis, jr.. corner of Spring
and Texas streets, where can be I
seen a large supply, offered at low
rates.
.Messrs. S. P. Griffin & Co., on the
Levee, are just in receipt of a large
assortment of hardware
LeRlosen & Co., are prepared to I
attend to the wants of their friends.
Give them a call.
The Red Jacket Bittrrs are free
from all the acidities and impurities f
usually found in the tonics and stom
ach bitters of the present day. They t
are a combination of rare herbs, with t
the purest and mildest of all stimu- (
lants- fine old ripe Bourbon Whisky.
The severest rain and hail storm r
we ever witnessed was on yesterday
morning before day. Doubtless in- a
jury has been caused by the wind. t'
We expect the crops, also, are se- a
verely injured.
Messrs. Collins & Cole offer for g
sale 350,000 bricks at the lowest d
market rates. The bricks are of aa
good article, and persons wishing to
purchase such things ought to call on n
the gentlemen. See advertisement. E
See card of Hart & Hoss, who ad- g
vertise in to-day's paper. Both gen- ti
tlemen are well known to our com
munity, and ought to receive a liber- h
al patronage.
We see it stated that Presideht ft
Johnson will issue a proclamation to sl
observe the 17th of May as a day of P
easting and prayer, owing to the a
signs of cholera in this country.
It is but little use tor us to pretend IS
to furnish our readers with telegraph

"Saul, Saul, Why Persecutest th e
Me,"
Since the late amnesty proclama
tion of the I'residvnt declaring tile
rebellion ended, depredation on the
part of the troops in our community
seems to be on tie increase; for but
a few nights 'igo a teamster front
Cherokee county, Texas, while
camping about two and a half mliles
from tile city, in the dead of night,
while quietly resting by his wagon
on his way home after comsing to
Shreveport, selling Iris cotton and
getting such supplies for himself and
neighbors as were needed, was at
tacked by six negro soldiers, or ne
groes having the bearing and unlifrarm
as well as the arUls and equipmlents
of trlaops, and they stole from him a
check for nearly three hundred dol
lars, and such supplies a, they de
sired as well as rubbing his person
of such things as suited their villain
ous banditti, fashion and l -hire.
The troops of thi comnlnlity stroll
promiscuously through our vicinity,
if not with the arms and equipments
of the service, with their side arims,
equally serviceable and effective,.
which they shoot at will fin our
streets during the day, and make, thae
night hideous with their shots, defy
iug the limited civil power of tile
land. But yesterday llorning a col
ored soldier, I snpl-nre after anight's
revel, come out on ''rlavis street ear
ly in the morning and commenced
firing off his pistol, whmen a civil of
ficer told him that it was is violation
of the city ordinances, and tlhat he
desired him to report at liea Iquar
ters and answer for th,. t.fiince, when
he used epithets and language u1n
necessary to repeat, walked into the
adjoining pro.tises and returned
with a six-shooter, and started for
camps to bring his 1.-gion, as is the
custom when one is spken to ftr a
breach of the city laws, for a word is
all they have ever received from that
quarter and I doubt if any more from
any other.
If I am not mistaken, by the U.
S. army regulations, infantry soldiers
are prohibited from wearing side
arms; also, from leaving camp with
out passes or sleeping out of quarters
except upon special and urgent occa
sions, and then such pass is required
to be approved by the company conm
mander and the commander of tie
regiment. Our city is alive every
night with the soldiery, some going
out to see their wives and others to
visit their sweethearts. Will our
commander who has come among us
do something to stop this nuisance
and viotation of military law 1
UNo.
Ricer - es.--'l'h river before the
city is on the rise again, and from
all appearances will continue to rise
for some time to come, on account of
the heavy rains the past few night.
Business is quite dull on the levee,

A Portland steamer was ftund to
be going astray, on a recent trip from
Boston, owing to deviations of her
compass. The deviation it was also
found, was caused by the steel hoop
skirt of a young lady who was in the
pilot house, and on her retiring the
compass resumed its proper position.

I r. aJohn \W. Young, of a'Iensas
parishl, La., turnishes a caanillunica
tion to the Vicksblnrg IHerald on the
subject of the toatal diaea se., wl, ich
a prevails there among horses and
mula-s. It connnllllnnced on the 10th
inst., anad at the date of' his, letter,
(16thl) not less than 211 hlntad ihad
adeld in his locality, mostly in three
days. lie is of' opinion thinat it is
cholera, and furnishes a prescription
which he tried on a mule, which re
covered, but as this was the last
ease-the disease ihaving apparently
spent itselt-he does not pretend to
say whetl-Ir the recovery should or
should not be ascribed to tihe pre
scription, which is as follows.
Laudanum, one table-spoonfl;
spirits camphor, half a table-spoon
tful; compound tincture of myrrh,
two table-spoonfuls; whisky, half a
pint; tepid water, half a pint; mix
anddrench. After g~iving, the mule
ceased to lie down and roll; seemed
very aick and reartle~s during the
night, which, however, gradually
.Iwore off, when the appetite returned,
and the cure seems complete.
We append the Doctor's account
of the symptoms of the nisesse:
1 The firt evidence of disease is
manifested by a restlensenes of the
. animal, tie flanks soon begin to fill
up, the back becomes more or les
"humnp'd" tp and in many cases a
desire to urinate oeears, the muale
droops its head and ears, the latter
becoming cold, a frequent disposi
tien to lie down and roll, eausing a
Igreat rumbnliag of water in the bow
Iels. Tlhese symptoms continue from
hour to hour to increase, indicating
great intu rnal suffering, until from
five to ten hours, death comes to give
