Thenant of land for endowment by
the Government was enormous, or in
amount 990,000 acres; hut only the
interest can be expended. This gif
only corresponds in amount to thi
grants to other States, which were sc.
cording to tho representative popula
tion of each State. The land scrip
sold brought at one time, for 76,00<
acres, $64,000, and at another, $263,‘
700 for *93,000 acres. Bone of the
land unsold is worth $6 and $10 an

The movement to introduce Chinese
labor in Louisiana appears to be sne-
cessful. Many of the richest and
most influential planters of the State
are engaged in it as stockholders in
the Louisiana Immigration Company,
just organised with aoapkal of $260,-
000 in $100 shares. A Mr. Payne,
who is at present in China as agent
of several individual planters, has en
gaged one thousand laborers in that
country, and expects to reach Lou
isiana with them in time for planting
the next crop. They have all been
selected from the agricultural dis
tricts of China, and they have agreed
to work for eight or ten years for
eight dollars a month in gold. The
Chinese at present in Louisiana live
in perfect harmony with the negroes
They are nearly all unmarried young
men, and are neat and excellent work
men. They also appear to be per
fectly contented. They are paid $13
U month in currency. Their cabins
are kept with care and cleanliness.—
It would seem that Louisiana will
soon have a large Chinese population.
The Siege of Paris.
The French government declares
that it would be inopportune to raise
the siege of Paris at present, and has
continued in force with unmitigated
severity regulations concerning pass
ports, the sale of inflammables, and
other matters of policy. The public
utterance of insurrectionary doctrines
had of late become so frequent as to
oonvince the authorities that the
mere presence of power, without some
exercise of it, was insufficient to in
spire the respect or the dread necessa
ry for the preservation of order. It
is now evidently the purpose of the
Government to' hold a heavy baud
upon the French capital, until its
safety is assured. Arrests of suspec
ted persons are made by wholesale,
and many of them are upjiaruntly
respectable men and women. Among
the number under arrest there were
yeatorday as many as one hundred and
sixty-five subjects of Belgium, and it
is stated that their release lias not
been and will not be demanded by
the Belgium government, though of
coarse, it will be seen that they have
impartial trials.

A horrible affair occurred on Tues
day on Barren Island, which is situa

erman named Ban Ryder, while f

him, throwing him upon the beach
and gnawing his back and breast
frightfully.

and hastened to resene Ryder, who
was found nearly dead from loss of
blood, and his clothing stripped from
his body, There are uo hopes of his
