' U BUGAE INTEREST OF LOUISI I ANA. Sfertile soil and genial clime of our Rtate too well known for us to give undue spvae in to their discussion, Their advantages vsperior fertility and climate have enabled uelsana lands to give the heaviest yields of atton, tod to pr-duce the finest qua Ity of to oreo in the world, n'l havegranted her almost ) monopoly lI the United Htatus of one of the ioi valuable protductions of ally zone-that of ougar. The largest amount of sugar produced in the ..e Was estimate]d t"" be approxlmat'ly live hundred million poundfs, with thirty million gallons of molasses, a drou which at the present average valuation, with fair sugar for a stanl atd, would be worth about fifty-two millions of dollars. This enormous crop was mado during the first year of the lute war. A few years pre rious a crop of 49..11.n.N1 pounds of sugar and proportionate lmantcity of molasses wase made n the same sugar fields. The war checked and almost destroyed the sugar industry of Louisiana. Tile sugair regiton was the scene of hut few hat les, but it suffered g~reatly from the marching and countermarch nlgot a lurge invlding army, particularly as some f its commanders, actlunlated bly a spl irit of vandalism, burned or destroyed more than half e costly manufw.tori s in the Ftate. It, is it der that this industry wns ever revived, ldering that the stock of cane in tile alte nearly exhausted, a large majority of the tations were laid waste and their bInldings . while the labor systml wra, not only com lptely revolutionized, but. laitlor also was. so to ak, completely demorliaUed. In some por ions of the State the industry was almost shed out, as the sugar lands along the Red ver and in the two parishes on the Mississippi ist below the mouth of lied river, Pointe Cou ; and West Feliieana, which were formerly most productive parts of the sugar district. produce comparatively very little sugar, ns majority of the old cane fields have been ed to some other crop. The post bellum progress of this important terest was greatly impedes by the wretched Ad rapacilous governments Ii posed upon the tate by the miserable reconstruction policy. was a generally conceded fact that the dinis to of misgovernment who then held sway uld not manege to keep up the twelve hun miles of levees in the sugar district while eymisappropriated, speculated upon, or stole s funds necessary to do this work, or that r could hold an ignorant laboring popula on under oivilised control while they sought i stir in them a sentiment of resentment and atred toward their employers, the land waers, or that they could protect the region dhich they ruled when they subjected it to a on which nearly amounted to eonfleca O. The evils of this misgovernment were that they scared away capital or restricted low into the sugar districts to niggardly s. which were in most instances only ob A able at such enormous rates of interest as almost ruin those who were unfortunately pelled to borrow money wherewith to carry their plantations. he vitality of the sugar interest f tr several after 1808 was, flguratively speaking, al sot fed upon the hope that the insurrection in 4haw.ould so decrease the largo annual crop i nat island as to largely increase the price of .taple, or to maintain the high prices ob anble up to s71,. Under some such stimulus ie Louisiana crop of 1870 oseems to have been a. That amounted to nearly 150ifl,0 hogs i4 Thereafter prices neither rose nor were 4 feven maintained. There was a marked jte in values which begun in 1871 antd ended ~. The amount produced also decreased 1 t.7, when the crop reached albout 170. 1, pounds of sugar and II,0o0,eml0 gallons of asees. h.otable rise in the price of the staple (owing ariently to the decrease in Cuban pIrodue . then commenced, and the cr0p of 1i7; is . ad to have boeen 1(f0.fK0,aHl pollnds of sugar. i 1'li3,e0ol,0o gallons of molases, valued ptll zimately at $,o.sot.oso., and produlced from ~rta (whose cane was actually ground) of 1it 10,00 acres,. or a gross acreage of 1so,tln, tmating that taiancrllres were put Ull for seed 575 to plant the present growing c rop of t cane. p have in a former edition endeavored to blih the opinions of many leading planters d merchants as to tbhe amount of sugar ely to be produced in the present fall and inter. A personal inspection of the fields in ishes which pr-duced last year about leoo.O heads, can hardly be enough whereupon to ean estimate of the amount likely to be ate this year. In the district along the MIs ppl river coast. from the mouth of Red to the lowest field in Plaquemines. the ps of West Baton Rouge. Iberville and aquemines are apparently the best. These generally of a fair average size, and appear be growing well. ueminee parish seems to be ahead of all ere in the stubble, as in that parish the so cold of last winter had least effect. The bble throughout that parish is- up to a fair rage on most of the plantations and unu y fine on others. With the exception of three noted parishes it is likely that there Ibe. even under the most favorable cireum ees, a considerable decrease in the sugar along the coast below that made the same region last year, From pondents in Avoyells and Rapides learn that a decrease is also ex in those parishes, but the amount there o is so trivial as scarcely to affect the bulk theeo.p. In St. Landry, Assumlition, Terre ne. St. Mary. Iberia. Lafour.he and St. Mar the increase over las.s year's crop must. be to make up the deficiency of the major on of the sugar district. Ithin the present week we have heard the mates of the growing crop made by several inent and su cessful planters. None of have exceeded so.000.o00o pounds. If this t could be made it may be considered. er the circumstances, as a splendid crop. spring was late and cool. the plant cane, h large in acreage and generally of a good d, was late in coming up, a very large pro on of stubble was destroyed during the winter, and the canes suffered in some por ot the State from a severe drouth, which from the end of May to the middle of However, the erop having been stimu by the application of thousands of tons of rs. has grown with extraordinary rap. during the three summer months, and is ent of fair size generally. plant cane will probably give as much as. more than. that of last year. All accounts that the stubble is very far inferior in in stand and in size, to that of last year. difficult to estimate this deficiency, as in sections the stubble is a complete failure: ers there is not half a stand, while in areas it is equal to that of last season. a it is considered that stubble cane fur nearly, if not quite, one-half the acreage mill, though generally by no means log half the crop, it appears safe to say presentyear's crop will fall below that year. How far below can scarcely now the oresentsugar crop of Louisiana, even yve fteen per cent lIess than last year's (which it is unlikely to do,. ought to be ex y rotable to those who are engaged in as the plantations producing it a put in such trim during the two past a. to lequire no heavy outlay of capital The wages paid the laborers who St have been fair, fuel and fertilizers have waully cheap along the river planta tions, and there has been a fine season for cul tivating the cane. The harvest labor also pro mises to be unusually abundant and cheap. The greatest dlsadvintage under which Lou isiana labors is being forced to compete in sugar production with the slave labor of Cuba The protective tariff which exists is not enough to off ,et this disadvantage, though the heavy tariff paid to protect refiners' interests would be amply sufficient to satisfy the larger class of producers. Even with the disadvantage that we have notted, sugar planting in Louislana should be a Urofitable business. Home men are at present making fortunes at it, others enjoy handsome incomes huem their sugar fields, and but very few are losing money at it, while i iis safe to say that these few art either extravalgant or careless Dianters. Each year there se.is to be a large influx of fresh capital in the business, and if prices are main tained at even their Ipresent rates, it is likely that in a few yeass t he State will produccenough sugar to supply the groat Mississippi Vallny--as there are mlnerte than one million acres of .ag niflcent lands in the sugar district that can be brought inlto cultivation, and these only await that developmenti which capital and Inhlor bring to i.e malde to bear harvests richer than Egypt bore in hetr seven years of plenty.

CEI TRAL DEPOT - OF - Animal Vaeeine' Matter. VACCINATION. DIRECT COW POX. The necessity for establishing in this city a central ofllon for vaccinating directly froml the cow is felt and admitted by all. in order to ar rest the ravages made by the small-pox on our population. This is the motive which has di rected tIn in creating it, confident of its good result. anti from its having been sanctioned by oxperience. I have the honor to offer to an en lightened cotmmunitdy n secorvice , at No. 1 Ca rpndelet street, corner aOnal, where the virus taken directly fromn the cow on the spot will be applied to those who honor me with their con fidence. Vaccination and revaccination applied in this form is the only one presenting no danger, and i the only preservative of conceded utility which insures preservation and exemption from small-pox. It is, at the same time, the most salutary method adopted by enlightened people to effect a speedy termination of the epidemics affectinag them. Persons not vaccinated can become so at any period add during all seasons. Those who have been so for seven years or more should be re vaeolnated the more so as it has been demon strated tlhat vacination taken from the arm is not permanent. Children fr.m thort earliest infanoy and even in the period of teething are exposed to no peril in being vaccinated, and during an epidemic should be so five days after their birth. Ladies will find in my establishmentanapart ment reserved cexclusively for their accommo dation, where they can be vaeolnated in most respectful privacey. On MO i)AY.

As our shipments of cotton have ,ben light during the period namned, our hands have not as yet had sufficient practice to ren der them perfect in the handling of the Puller, but we think it quite safe to say that we can turn out five houdred Iales per working day of ten honis. We have not had an opportunity of testing the actual gain in storage, but are confident id is fully Twelve to fifteen per cent. We will use the Pullers upon our three presses, and feel confident that a fair trial is all that is necessary to secure their gen eral adoption. The Grip )Tie is certainly the strongest and best tie we have ever used for in spite of the greater tension of the bands, none of the ties have broken, and very few bands break after leaving the press. Its general adoption by planters would secure the delivery of their cotton in better order, and would effect a saving in the cost of comoressing, as all , ther ties have to be thrown aside in the compresa when the Pullers are used.
