There are some caterpillars on the
Armsetead plantation, opposite Cou
shatta.
The towns of Madison, Duckport and
Milllken's Bend are going to have a
grand joint ball next week.
Caterpillars have appeared in Natchi
toches, but there is nothing to fear from
them, the Vindicator declares.
Natchitoches parish boasts of a man
who has been married thirteen times,
and all of whose wives are dead.
A camp meeting will be held at Union
Camp Ground, Rateliff's mills, Red

There was a considerable cave in the

last week, causing John Brooks to move
his house further inland.
Louis Long, colored, of West Baton
Rouge, outraged and attempted to kill
a negro girl in that parish last Tuesday.
I tie was caught and 1s now in jail in the
East Baton louge parish jail.
East Baton Rouse sent an unusual
nnmber of early vegetables, such as
potatoes and cabbage, North this sum
met, one gentleman, Mr. J. C. Favrot,
alone sending 1156 barrels of potatoes.
These transactions proved paying.
The cotton crop in Rapides is fine,
but the caterpillars are over the whole
parish, doing little or no harm thus far.
Some planters are using Paris green,
while others prefer waiting for the next
crop of the worms, which they consider
the destructive ones.
The merchants of Alexandria and
Pineville, and some of the planters of
Rapides have prepared a petition to
Joseph A. Alken, the President of the
Red River Transportation Line, and
have had it numerously signed,asking a
reduction in the price of the freight on
cotton, in high water, from $1 5o to $1
a bale.
Young Harrison, son of Dr. Harrison
of Natchitoohes, was bitten on the hand
by a huge rattlesnake about ten days
since. Mr. Harrison was hauling rails
and the snake was in coil under the rail
pile, when upon removing them he
fastened his fangs so deeply that he had
to be literally pulled off. Whisky and
tobacco were freely used as antidotes,
and, strange to say, Mr. Harrison did
not suffer a day's inconvenience.
As a remarkable freak of the mail
service between Natchitoches and Alex
andria, we will state a remarkable fact,
which continues a remarkable nuisance
to the great detriment of the public. A
few months previous to the establish
ment of a daily route from Shreveport
to Natchitoches which is now in per
feet running order, we used to receive
regularly our Shreveport Daily Tinies
Inside of forty.eight hours, and now we
receive it regularly inside of six days.
We have complained of this time and
again, have sought an explanation of
this remarkable mail freak, and for the
life us we can get neither, and yet it
continues, and all reported all right at
Washington and no fines imposed and
the contractors are happy at the end of
each quarter. We begin to believe that
Mr. Key, the Postmaster General of Mr.
Hayes is no mail key at all and that he
is a drone on the service.-[Alexandria
Democrat.
A man living in Natchitoches was con
fined in jail there on Monday last as a
violent maniac. For some time past he
has exhibited an abberration of mind
but nothing serious was thought of it
until upon Saturday last, when two lit
tie children, aged about twelve or fif
teen years, took his dinner to the field
where he was working. The little boy,
who acted quite heroically, says they
found the man lying down apparently
asleep, he left the little girl near him
with the dinner going hilnself to anoth
er part of the field, when attracted by the
screams of the little girl and going to
her assistance he found her violently
assailed by the man then in a violent
convulsion seemingly, who was froth
ing at the mouth, etc., and endeavoring
to bite the child; the screaming of the
two children brought the mother and a
negro woman from the house, when the
maniac was fought off by the two wo
men and the little boy for over two
hours, and not until the boy had, at the
suggestion of his mother, stabbed him
twice with his pocket knife, did they
succeed in overpowering him. He is
even now raving and snapping at every
thing within his reach and exulbits all
the symtoms of hydrophobia. The
name of this unfortunate is George
Sherring.

The cotton factory at Natchez is being

The first case of sunstroke in Vicks
burg this season occurred Monday
evening. Joe Moore, colored, who was
serving out a sentence on the chain
gang, was paralyzed from the excessive
heat, and while en route to the city hos
pital for treatment died from the effects
of the stroke.
And now the enterprising German
scientist, Mr. Maas, of Meridian, be
sides inventing the process for making
moss out of pine straw, has invented a
mode of making gas out of resin, which
is said to furnish a splendid light,
equally as good as the illuminating gas
generally used. In time the piny woods
region will be illuminated by gas, in
stead of the primitive pine knot.
On last Sunday morning, in theneigh
borhood of Meridian, three miles south
of Egypt Station, on the Mobile and
Ohio Railroad. John Lawson, a young

decaying corpse, suspended twenty feet
in the air from the limb of a tree. The
cause of his self-destruction is unknown.
He had about $1000 in cash on his per

TIHE NEWMDIOqT' MTUIKE.
The publisher of an evening paper in
Detroit, Mich., has been charging the
newsboys one and a quarter cents for
what they sell for two cents. Last Fri
day they rose in insurrection. A mass
meeting was held in an alley, and a
yellow-haired lad named Carrot-top
struck an attitude and summed up the
case. "You see, fellers, we ain't got no
fair show. A cent apiece is all we orter
pay for them papers, and if we buck to
gether that's all they kin glt. We
ain't no Hothschilds." "You bet yer
life " remarked the chairman. "I've
sold newses for a straight year "
said "Captain Jack," a melancholy
youth with a stone-bruise, "and there
ain't no money in 'em for me at a cent
and a quarter. I for one am goin' to
kick." "So am I," and "So am 1," was
the chorus of approval which went up
from a dozen throats: And kick they
did. Nearly two hundred of them as
sembled at 2 o'clock in front of the office
and refused to buy a copy. Two editions
were run off the presses, but there were
no buyers. When the third edition
came out, a few small boys sneaked Into
the office by the back entrance, and
made purchases at the old rates, but
they were discovered by their colleagues
outside, and compelled to suspend ope
rations. At about 0 o'clock, a' lad wit
five copies of the paper under his arm
issued from the office under the protec
tion of two policemen, and soon many
of the strikers fell into line and bought
their papers at the old rates, while Car
rot-top and his faithful followers whis
tled, and jeered, and howled.
