BT HHS. BROWNING.
Sweet, thou hast trod ou a heart.
PasB ! there's a world fall of men;
And women as fair aa ttou art
Must do such things now oud tuen.
Thou aly has stepped unaware
Malice not one cnn impute;
And why should a heart have been there
In the way of a fair woman's foot?
It waa not a stone that could trip,
Nor was it a thorn that could rend;
Put up thy proud underlip,
'Twas merely the heart of a fiiend.
And yet, peradventure, one day
Thou, Bitting alone at the glass,
Remarking tho bloom gone away,
Where the smile in Its dluipiement was.
And seeking around thre in vain,
From hundreds who flattered before,
Such a word as "Oh 1" not in the main,
Do I held thee lesa precious, but more.
Thou'lt sigh, very like, on thy part.
"Of all I have known, or oan know,
I wish I had only that t eart
I trod upon ages ago I"
NEW ORLEANS AND TDE FOPJU.
Celebration ot the Semt-Centcnntal An?
niversary or tlie Elevation of Pias IX
to the Priesthood-An Immense Dem?
onstration.
Tho New Orleans papers are filled with ac?
counts of tho great Catholic celebration in that
city on the 10th inatant. A correspondent of
the Louisville Courier, describing the soene,
says :
The pontifical celebration, which was given
by the Catholics here yesterday, was tho most
magnificent and immense demonstration that
has ever been seen in New Orleans. This
community is thoroughly Latinized. By far the
largest proportion of the inhabitants is Catho?
lic. The procession and ceremonies which
took place yesterday were done in honor of
the fiftieth anniversary of Pope Pius Ninth
having taken orders as a priest. It was really
the celebration of his Golden Wedding with the
Church.
To honor the occasion to the fullest extant
admissable, every order of the priesthood,
every society and order in the church, and
which is Catholic in its practice, every school,
civic society, the functionaries of the Stats and
city, and an innumerable concourse of citizens,
were in the procession. With banners of all 1
descriptions flying, music from many bands
making the city resound with their poans of
ioy and rejoicing, the immense demonstra
ion passed along the route. This was lined
on either side throughout the whole distance, 1
and the spectators stood, during the transit,
eagerly watching, and with unabated interest,
the long lino and its ever varying peculiarities.
We reckon the line at least three and a half
miles long. It passed at a rapid walk and in 1
close compact order, two and three abreast,
and occupied *n hour and a half whilst passing
any given point.
The ceremonies which look place in front of
the cathedral were of the most imposing char?
acter. All the priesthood and orders that are
on duty in this oity and vicinity were on the
grand platform, and the interesting services
were observed with wonderful interest by the
vast throng, which filled every avenue and
available foot of space in the vicinity.
It was truly gorgeous. Jackson Square had
been set apart exclusively for ladies, and it ,
was orowded to its utmost capacity, while the
streets around were literally packed, even
across the levee and to the very bank of the
river, while the galleries of the Pontalba build?
ings were filled with gentlemen, and the very
roofs of houses were alive with people. The
most beautiful picture of all, ai seen from the
?latform, was that of Jackson Square, set in a
ving frame of black and fringed by the ever?
greens and wreaths and symmetrically trim?
med shrubbery, where stood a cluster of female
loveliness dressed in holiday attire, wearing
countenances pleased, yet anxious and inter?
ested, while above all stood the majestic Btatue
of Andrew Jackson, the centre of this picture,
the background of which was formed by a view
of the mighty Mississippi, its steamboats and
shipping.
The New Orleans Times, in its editorial re?
marks on the celebration, says:
It was certainly one of tho grandest popular
manifestations ever made in this city. In
point of numbers, it exoeeded any assemblage
we ever witnessed. In the grandeur and sub?
limity of the scene, in the earnest enthusiasm
and devotion of the multitude, in the vast
array of women and children, in tho tasteful
and appropriate ornaments, and the solemnity
of the ceremonies, everythinr combined to
render the occasion one which impressed all
beholders with an awe, reverence and respect,
for the sincerity and earnestness of those who
had thus gathered in snob, vast multitude, to
test their veneration for the great father and
head of the Catholio Church.
After a pause of about one minute. Thomas
Layton, Esq., rose and delivered a most im?
pressive address. Mr. E. Burmudez then made
an address in French, and Mr.-in German.
All these gentlemen were enthusiastically ap
?lauded. His Grace the Archbishop then gave
ie benediction of. tho Blessed Sacrament, the
music for the occasion hoing performed by the
combined choirs of the city. His Grace the Most
Bev. Archbishop then gave the Papal B?n?dic?
tion, thus closing the ceremonies of one of the
grandest, most enthusiastic and most imposing
religious ceremonies ever witnessed in New
Orleans.

COLUMBUS, April 16 -The season in this section
has commenced disastrously. It is estimated that one
fourth of the cotton had been planted and was up.
tuesday and Wednesday mornings considerable white
frosts appeared and thin ice was seen. Nearly all
rotten that was up was killed, and the previous and
succeeding cold bas either sickened or stinted most
it the remainder-thus rendering replanting neces
lary. Seed is very scarce, and sufficient to plant the
lame area cannot be obtained. The following are
the reports of the warehouses for the week, the basis

ers.
Gross receipts at this port for tho week, 5979
bales. Sinoo 1st September 551.495 bales.
On tho week our prices show an advance of M to
*?o. and Liverpool is >?d higher. The large sales
thte week have relieved many holders, and tho offer?
ing stock ia considerably reduced, We have receiv?
ed accounts of frost in Alabama and Georgia. We
do not hear that it extended beyond those States, or
that much cotton was up to be Injured, lhere is no
doubt, however, that tho planting season is two or
three weeks later th au last year.
lhere have beon received at the ports since 1st
September 1.846,940 bales, of which exporters have
taken 1,108,326; spinners 401 900; and the stocks have
increased 276,720 bales. Deficit in receipts as com?
pared with lust year 135,312 bales. Deficit in ship?
ments to Liverpool 285,247 bales. The deficit in re?
ceipts is probably at its maximum, as we have to
compare with an average of only 15,184 bales for the
next four weeks in 1868, and there aro 36,172 bales
more in tho in terior towns, part c f which will be
moved in when priceB are satisfactory.
In our circular of April loth, 1808, wo reported the
stocks In Cincinnati, Louisville, Selina, Eulaula,
Americus, Griffin, Albany, Yickeburg and 8t Louis,
at 1AM92 bales. This year the slocks In those places
amount to 19,759 bales, which shows an lncreaee of
7767 bales. On tho plantations wo hoar th it there is
less cotton than at tbis time last year.
About this time last year prices had advanced to
30a32o, and we warned our liiends of the danger of
holding cotton, and called attention to the following
fact: 1. That spinners in England bad bought froely
and held very large stocks at the mills. 2. That tho
consumption was likely to be checked by the high
prices. 3. That the shipments from Bombay might
be increased by tbe high prices. Thia year the situ?
ation is entirely different. Spinners have been re
Fisting the advance in cotton, and have bought as
little as possible. Then stocks at the mills are re?
duced to a minimum point, owing to the reduced
production of goods; tho stocks everywhere have
been much diminished.
'i he governments reports from Bombayassure us
that there will be 200.090 bales less shipped this year
lo England as compared with 1868. Besides, last year
the planting season in the South was propitious and
there waa no difficulty about labor. Whereas, this
year the seaton ls three weeks late, and from all
sides we hear of scarcity of hands, Weean see no?
thing to depress prices until October, and many
things likely to cause an advance.
The Bombay Circular of 6th March says : The
itrospectot au export at all approaching to that of I
ost year becomes daily less likely. Further reduc
I tionsare made in the estimates of tho Broach and
[ Dhollera crops. And we may feel more and more
certain that the total for the present year will not ex?
ceed 800,000 bales to Great Britain and 200,00} bales
to the Continent.
