One barked .everaI peach trees for Dr. Bourne this fall. rTjje party who lost a bracelet some days ago can get same by ap plying to this office and identifying ownership. Our market was pretty tell sup plied this week with wild ducks and freah oysters, but not of sufficient *quantity of cither to meet the de mands of town consumers. Mr. N. C.

Joseph Primeani, in default of giving bail, was caged last Wednes day in the parish jail, to await his trial at the next term of our district court, on the charge of cattle steal ing. Bad habits will sometimes bring people into tronLle. Since the above was put in type PrimneaI4 gave bond and is now at Iberty. We learn that, in consequence of the unreliability of negro labor, Many of our bInd owners are en deavoring to secure white tenants and laborers, for the coming year, to cultivate their lands. The people of this section of country have been diow to discover that white Tabor is more reliable and profitable than the negro; and the sooner we get our country populated with an intel ligent and thrifty class of white people, the sooner will our Stato prosper in every branch of industry and reach political fame. We have experienced some cool bat pleasant weather daring the past week, which, in its exhilaratiig and bracing influence, had the ten dency of drawing out some of the lssies after a protracted coE cement to indoors, who could be sesn occa vioualiy promenading the boulevards in all their beauty and gracefulness, and apparently as coquetish as they could possibly be, seemingly tryipg toi outvie each other as to which would prove the most successful masher.

Ankolooki recently purchased a va ' a VMy1eait nd mresamestal trees to be planted on his late purcbase, on the opposite -ide of the bayou, ,preparatory to building his contem plJted fine residence, which will $oon be co menced. Dr. Kibbe and " Mr. Sokoloki have a fine location: us there is in the Attakapas country to make one of 4te most beautifal rural spots in the State. Adjoining these two places to the north is W. B. White, Esq., who also owns a fline property elegantly and admira lily situated. and who is now having' some additions made on his premises in the shape of improvements on his AlVlMing honme.

Yesterday the ather took a sodden change and gave us a little dampness in exchange for our bright sunny days. Messrs. Maxwell & Putnam are now paying $22.50 per thousand pounds for cotton in seed. We be lieve they are paying the highest cash price of all cotton buyers in the parish. Messrs. 0. Bouique and David Frank have got through with the making of their sugar crop. The sugar crop of this parish will be vcry short this year, considerablc cane, however, has been matlaid for! the next year's plantitg. C'omnuinicatrd. The school-house near Mr. Jean Pene's, in the first ward, is in a de plorable condition. On the nights of the lGth and 17th ult., it was blown off its foundation blocks, and' is in much need of other repairs which the School Board has failed to make. We think if the School Board mean to educate the children there, it bad better see about having some repairs made to same. The teachers have repeatedly called its attention to the same, but it has failed to do anything. MARRIED. DT)'TEL - BEFRNARD - At the Caifhoiik (htrc~h on S etiid v~, \ovenmher 20, I.0 by Rev.
