accounts of the crops in our parish.
Corn is maturing finely, mid tliwe
will ho a large yield, ('otton is pro

well, as « general thing. There has
been n snperabundam-e of rain in
some parts, threatening the cotton
with rust. A good dry »pell ol some
weeks, relieved by occasional slight
rains, would help mutters materially.
We learn that in some places iri

The annual scholastic ex.rein«, of this ex- I

Wedneaday evening, the 12th instant., and

House and were attended by huge and
discriminating andiene«*. Tho intellect
ual and mns'cal entertainments, which
!
j
were furnished by the pupils, sru vurv !
highly apoken of by tho city papers. Tho j
pupils exhibited a marked proficiency in
t heir variou* courses of study ; and a brass
band composed of twenty-four of the little |
(ictolars, performed with great merit and j
ekill, many fine pieces of music. . j
We are irlad to learn, that the Christian
i„ , . „I
Brothers are realising an amount of ou
eouingnmoiit and patronage sufficient to I
enable them to enlarge tho sphere of their j
operations. With this view, thoy have j

Against them, to their utter shame
and confusion
The New York Express, states
some forty suits against Baker, the
Government detective, are about
• being brought by ex-Recorder Smith.
Several affidavits are printed show
ing persons were released, who had
been summarily arrested, by paying
over valions sums, varying from
$500 to $li,000. One affidavit
«tates £120,000 were divided be
tween one Stanley and others em
ployed by Baker.

| while the consumer of it is not at all
j aware of this tact, it being impossi
ble to detect the rancid laste of the
cream while in a frozen staH'.
and it has been ascertained that the
cause is in consequence of vendors
retaining their supply, which was
left over the day before, and reffeez
ing it the next, morning and offering
it for sale, while in a rancid state,
When cold, it is impossible to detect
this poisonous condition, but after it
is taken into the stomach and dis
solves, then it is, that, the rancid
quality of the ice-cream becomes
perceptible, and disseminates itself
throughout the system.
The rancidity of the milk is anala
gons to the oxydation ot metals, and
is facilitated by keeping the milk for
a certain length of time in a tin or
other metallic vessel being, for culi
nary purposes, usually combined with
lead.

different times examined ice-cream,
