Attakapas crop prospects are good
better even than last year, good as crops
were then.
Preparations for planting are rather
slow in Natohitoahes and everything a
month or two behind hand.
The small-pox has reached St. James
parish in its northern travels, and sle go.
Ing up-stream as fast as a steamboat.
The Kellogg tac collector of Biohland
turned over willingly all his books,

The Collette and Harlem levees, in

Jesse ). Tompkins was elected Parish
Treasurer for Oarroll parish by the po
lice jury, and will try to furnish the
parish government with money enough
to keep it alive, if he cannot do the
same by the State.
It is generally believed that the
orange, banana and mespilus crops of
Plaquemlnes parish have been ruined
by the many frosts and the extreme
cold weather that has prevailed there
during the winter; so we will havo to
wait another year for them.
The Cataioula News requests the
Irtprasentatlve from that parish, Rlev.
Mr, Rloutin, a Republican, to join the
true Lcglilataure, and cites the fact that
it was ntn-lladiial votes that elected
him to the Legislature as all the othler
candidates on the Radlical ticket were
defeated.
The 'iaq uemine lumber trade will
suffer greatly from the lowness of the
water this year. The logs are still in
the swamps and likely to remain there
forever. Oh, for a crevasse, a rain, a
slight overflow-something to relieve
the swamps from their present desert
like dryness.
The Pipes plantation, parish of West
Baton Rouge, and ontaining 600 acres,
but no sugar-house or other buildings
was sold the other day to a Cincinnati
gentleman for $15,000 which is at the
rate of $15 an acre, Western buyers of
sugar plantations are now becoming
pleasantly frequent.
Iunters have grown to be such a ter
rible nuisance in the parish of West
Baton Rouge that the planters are ar
resting them as tresspassers and lock
ing them up, They break down fences
burn the grass and shoot cattle and
tame fowls. Nothing but a strict game
law or a night in the lookup will cure
this weakness.
The Leveque levee, just completed by
the Levee Company, in West Baton
Rouge, is not regarded as safe and able
to stand the water. It is built on a
sandy foundation and is apt to give
way, levee and all, at the least high
water, and open up several thousand
acres of sugar land to the ravages of
the river.

The city of Natohez is debating

The Willman debt, which has long

Natchez proposes to get rid of heý
outstanding warrants. The Board of
Supervisors is empowered to make pro

ways:
1st. By the levy of a tax in one year

(which in this caso is impracticable).
2i,.By the levy of an annual tax,
through several ycars, to take thorem up
gradually. 3d. 13y thu levy of a cash

then submit the latest developments in
the business of contracts, and not pro

Peter II. Sweeny, Returns to liII Old
Haunt,.
[New York World.J
On thoelst of November, 1871, Peter 11.
Sweeny, the "Brains" of the ring, re
signed his office as Commissioner of
Public Parks in a letter to the Mayor
which he expressly asked should not be
made known until after the election.
This was the first step, It is said, toward
the exile from which he returned by the
French steamer Labrador on Thursday
morning. In February, 1872, he was in.
dicted by the Grand Jury for conmplicity
in the ring frauds, but when the warrant
was made out for his arrest he could not
be found. Subsequently news came to
this city that he was living in splendor
in Paris. Later it was rumored that he
was tired living abroad, and had
expressed a desire to return, provided
a reasonable amount of ball would
be accepted. Mr. Peckham was very
desirous that he should come back, as
he had been charged in Ingersoll's affm
davit with sharing to the extent of 10
per cent in the ring plunder. Sweeny
then entered into negotiations for his
return. All his property was under at
tachment, and a number of suits wore
pending against him. Finally It was
arranged that Swoeny should come
home to attend the trial of the suits
against him, an agreement having been
made by counsel on both sides exempt
ing him from arrest, either civil or
criminal, including arrests at the suit of
taxpayers or citizens, during the pen
dency of his case and for thirty pays
thereafter. The attorney general, the
dlistrict attorney of the county, and the
counsel to the corporatioh all joined in
this agreement. His case comes up on
the :d of next month.

SIMON CAII&EtdN'W PLEA.
And the Widow Olvers' Indlgnnnt
Answer- Not a Womnn to be Trifled
With.
IN. Y. Hun.l
WASHIN nroN, March 16.--Mrs. Oliver's
attorney to-day filed a replication to
Mimon Cameron's recent Ilea in her
fifty thousand dlollars breach of promise
suli. Tho plea is very brief, reading as
follows:
"And now comes the defendant, and
for plea to the declaration filed against
him in the above entitled cause says
that he never promised as alleged."
The plaintiff was shown this tn the
office of her attorneys this morning, and
she exclaimed, indignantly, "He says
he never promised, does he, the deceit
ful old rogue. I'll show him whether
he promised as alleged, and I'll show
him, further, that I'm not a woman to
be trifled with by any such an old scamp
as he is." The lady was advised by her
counsellor to hold her tongue, which
she did, after getting in an energetic last
word at the expense of the Winnebago
Chief. Mr. Cameron's plea was sub
mitted without being sworn to, and was
signed by his attorneys, W. A. Cook and
A. G. Riddle, which saved Simon from
an unpleasant charge of perjury, if Mrs.
Oliver should prove that he had pro
mised, and then lied about it. Came
ron's lawyers will probahbty keep post
poning the case for some time to come.
It is said of a bankrupt Michigan firm:
"The schedule of liabilitties is fifteen feet
