oiicrcb n otick .—Tlie Rev. Dr. Lewi»

pal ), to-morrow. Service will commence
st U o'clock, a. u.
WSf" Our thanks are due the officer»
of the steamers Gre. y Eagle and Mon
soon, for supplies of late New Orleans
papers. Also, to Mr P. L. Tjerpin
it /, Steamboat A^ent, and his accom
odating clerk, Frank Louoks , for
similar favors.
Local .—The weather continue.« to
be about as warm aa could fee desired
—the heat being occasionally relieved
by gentle showers. We have had a
succession of beautiful moonlit nights,
very pleasant to promenaders, and
coo! enough to afford enjoyment to
sleeper«. Cotton comes pouriug in
daily from the country imparting con
siderable activity to business. The '
River is falling steadily, and boats are j
passing up and down frequently, laden '
with freight and passengers There I
has been some talk of the cotton worm '
having recently made its appearance j
in certain places in the vioinity, but
we are happy to say that thus far lit- j
tie iujury comparatively has been done !
by the depredator. We hope soon to j
chronicle its disappearance altogeth. ;

POSTAL FACILITIES. J
Prominent among the needs of the
South at this time, is a re-inaugura
tion of the old postal system. Poet
master General Dbnnison , we are
glad to perceive, is not oblivious to
a senne ol this necessity. Although
a little slow in extending the facili
ties of his bureau towards this section
of hi» particular "vineyard," he lias
nevertheless, of late, manifested a
disposition to take us under his pa
ternal care. Iu an interview with
Gen. Grant a short time since, rela
tive to the use of the railways South
for the transportation of the mails,
he pledged himself that postal facili
ties should be extended throughout
that section as rapidly as possible.
Coming nearer home, we are gratified
to see that he has taken Baton Ilouge
into consideration and given us a
postmaster in the person of our fellow
townsman, C. G. B reckimridgk,
Esq., whose ability for the position
is undoubted, sud who we hope soon
to see installed in his new official
position.
The citizeus' postoffices being abro
gated by a state of war, left our peo
ple entirely dependent upon chance
facilities for intercommunication, or
upon the courtesies of the military
postmasters, who as a geueral thing,
evinced great kindness iu attending
as far as they could, to the postal
wants of civilians.
The reembracing within the scope
and jurisdiction of the General Poet
otfice Department of all the old routes
And offices throughout the South,
together with a probable augmenta
m#ntation of other routes and offices
in the direct ratio of a probable in
crease of population ami settlements,
will eventually reuder that Depart
ment more self -sustaining and lucra
tive than ever.
We hope soon to witness a thor
ough re-organixation of all our coast
and interior postal arrangements, so
that we can once more be placed iu
directed neighborly communication
with our friends in the surrounding
country.
%ijf* We Jearn from English pa
nais that therfl is every probability
that thousands of Welsh colliers and
Iron workers will locate themselves on
this side of the Atlantic before the year
is over. Scarcity of hands, it is »aid,
is already beginning to be experienced
at some of the works in South W ales.
It appears that nearly all the emi
grants come out under the auspices of
the Amerioan Emigrant Society, who
«imply guarantee a free passage to
5few York.
White and Black Labor.
All accounts agree as to the proba
bility of an immense migration soon
from the States of the North and
West, as also from foreign climes, to
this inviting region of the sun. The
expansive realms of the South are to
receive an unprecedented accession
to their population, consisting of
thousands skilled in all the various
arts and sciences necessary to the
growth, the strength and the welfare
of a people. Many will come pro
vided with the means and appliances
to enter immediately the great arena
of enterprise which is open to receive
them. Many others, depending aloue
upon their stout frames, their brawny
arms and sound constitutions, will
enter the lists as laudable competitors
in the great field of labor. Gradu
ally and perceptibly will be unfolded
to the gaze and -astonishment of the
world, those vast innate resources of
our favored latitudes, which have re
mained dormant for the past four
years, and which in the long years
previous to the war, remained at best
but partially developed.
Our native population, stimulated
by the ambitious efforts of their new
allies in the great work of "building
up the State," will set in with re
newed zeal and energy, "keeping
step to the Union," and litt them
selves out of their reverses to an
abundant prosperity. The colored
portion ol' that population, not real
izing to so great an extent the ne
cessity and importance of " taking
time by the forelock" and giving
shape and progress to their notions
more iu consonance with their pres
ent condition of freedmeti, may and
undoubtedly will find themselves
outstripped in the race for successful
labor and employment, unless they
cau manage to reform their ideas
and pursuits in time.
Upon this subject and that of emi
grant labor, a correspondent of the
New Orleans Picayune throws out
some salutary hints, as follows :
." In a recent communication, 1 re
marked that the question between
large and small fanning commences
to attract public attention in this
State. I see that one of your city
coteinporaries is of opinion that white
labor will eventually supersede, in a
considerable measure, black labor in
the Southern States.
With the influx of white labor,
and the disintegration of the gregari
ous labor of the great plantations,
there will be a much larger variety
of products. Farms will multiply
and plantations will diminish. Ex
tensive tracts of land, which cannot
be cultivated as plantations of cottou
or sugar for want of a sufficient num
ber of hands willing to combine in
regular work, will be devoted to the
production of food for stock, which
demands uot. much labor, and to pas
turage, which demands very little
labor. So says your cotemporary.
As there is every indication that
tlit^ volume of immigration to the
United Status will be very large in
the future, is it not the policy of the
people at the South to iuvite emi
grants to come and settle among
themselves ! They have lands fully
equal if uot much superior to those
of the fertile West. What is needed
to cultivate them are farmers. Let
not prejudice warp their judgment,
and in a few short years the surface
of the Southern States will be stud
ded with innumerable well tilled
farms, and the hum of prosperity will
be heard in all th^ir villages.
All the accounts concur in statiug
that the emigrants now leaving Ger
many are of a superior class, com
prising a large proportion of skilled
mechanics and of small laud owners,
who are selling their farms in order
to purchase more land in the Western
States."

N ew O rleans T rue D elta.—
Mr. W. R. Flöh, announces in the True
Delta of the 6th, his withdrawal from
the editorial management of that jour
nal, and its transfer to Messrs. W.
R. Adams and Robert Oliver, the
entire newspaper establishment hav
ing passed into the hands of those
gentlemen. Mr. Adams many years
since, owned and conducted the Baton
Rouge Gazette, (long before it became
merged into the Comet,,) and subse
quently, in company with J. 0.
Nixon, Esq., owned and conducted
the New Orleans Crcscent. His edi
torial career was marked by signal
ability and influence. Mr. Oliver
has for a long while been connected
with the New Orleans press, and is
favorably known as an efficient busi
ness manager.
We clip the following introductory
of those gentlemen from their paper
of the 4th :
Having been well known to, and
thoroughly identified with, the peo
ple of New Orleans and the South
west for many years, we do uot deem
it necessary to announce any extend
ed programme of our future course.
We prefer to be judged by our acts,
as they may develop themselves here
after, rather than by any promises
or pledges which long established
custom might warrant us in making
in advance. If a cordial support of
the Administration of President John
son iu his efforts to restore the Union
to its former condition of unparalleled
affluence and grandeur ; if a heartfelt
wish to cultivate harmony, union and
brotherly love, between the citizens
of all parts of our common country ;
if an earnest effort to restore Loui
siana to her rightful place among her
sister States, to heal the wounds
which war has inflicted upon her, to
develop her unequalled latent re
sources, to stimulate her industry
and promote her advancement—and
if a sincere desire to add to the
wealth, business and general pros
perity of the great commercial me
tropolis which has been our home for
many long and pleasant years, be
meritorious, and entitle us to the con
fidence of the community, we hope
to receive a share of public patron
age commensurate with our deserts.

Mr. Murphy—Bad cess to him, I
did, your honor.
Judge Holt—Did you hear what

What President Johnson Said
About Judah P. Benjamin .—There
seems to be no doubt that the rebel
secretary, Benjamin, has made good
his escape to Bermuda—nest of pi
rates, blockade-runners, and yellow
fever conspirators. This intelligence
will be received with much regret by
the President. In a recent conversa
tion with a prominent political gen

there was no rebel, whose hanging
seemed to him so imperatively de
manded by public justice, as Judah
