I can only speak positively of the country I have seen, but from others I learn that condr tions are about the same all over both parishes. There will not be a one fourth crop. There will not be one sack shipped from MlllersTille to ten last vear and do not believe one to fifteen. Rice that people thought two weeks ago would make one half crop or more la now entirely abandoned. "There are some very limited localities where there will be fair crops.

Our crop is one. There are about seven or eight farma wilh fairly good rice. Mine and one or two neighbors are very good so far but south of us thia prairie extends about tea miles and in that whole distance there Is no rice except that irrigated, some 200 or 300 acres, and I have been eighteen miles north and did not see one good piece and but few that will pay for harvesting.

To day It learea tla the Louisville and Nashville Railroad for Mount Vernon, 'where It goes to spend a month or longer in target practice. The inspection yesterday morning, made in open field, showed the company to be in excellent shape for movement at 'a moment's notice.

The guna were found bright and polished the bayonets burnished, and army utensils, knapsacks, canteens, and field equipments were all packed and in readiness, so that the company will be ready to move at 9 o'clock. It will arrive at the Xxralsvlile and depot at the head of Canal street, and leave on the 11 o'clock train. The company' will be tinder charge of Mr. John J. Keilar.

local passenger agent of the Louisville and Kashvllie Road, who Will see It safely to Mount 'Vernon. The company will be In the comrnand of Captain Mason' Carter, and will oe composed of forty six men. This is less than the usual requisite number sixty men but some of the members are off on leave of absence, some detained by other causes, and some sick. The trip to Mount Vernon will be made In a few hours, the company arriving there thia evening about 8 o'clock. It Is one of the regulations of the war department that all troops shall have each year a month's target practice.

Heretofore the companies from the Jackson barracks have been accustomed to take this practice at a post In Kentucky, near Louisville, but this year they go to Mount Vernon, as at this post there are better facilities. The reservation at the Jackson barracks is, not sufficiently large to permit long range shooting, hence the necessity of going to other forts for the important drill. Company is generally conceded to be the crack company at the post. It is called upon usually to fire the national salute upoqr the. arrival of foreign vessels in the river, and in other ways is designated as the leading company of the post.

Captain Carter, in command. Is an oid Indian fighter, havinar served on the frontier for a number of years, and been in many fierce Indian encounters. His company, indeed, have spent the last ten or twelve years In the west, hav? ing been stationed here only for a year or two. The company la composed of brave, healthy, fine looking men, excellent specimens of Uncle Sam'a defenders. First Lieutenant Tilt son and Second Lieutenant Bassette.

There are stationed here two companies, regular details from 1 the aWrlment xn hlcn ft main there all the year. Besides tnis regular detachment, there la also stationed there an Indian company. Tills company is In command of the famous 'Indian chief, Geronimo, who, together with his entire tribe of women and children, are prisoners of war. The ereat Indian chief was captured in 18K5. lie will be remembered as the man who gave the United States troops so much trouble in Arizona, going on the war path and for.

a long time keeping op continuous turmoil. He was at length captured, however, together with a number of his braves and their families. The entire lot were made prisoners 'of war and placed at Mount Vernon. Sergeant Dickson, of Company B. says that Geronimo la now an old man.

the last re malning chieftain of the Apache brarea lie has been honored by being made magistrate among, his people In tie Xort, having tinder control the police regulation of all the remaining Apaches, some 300 or 400 In number. Including men. women and children. There are three different kinds of rifle practice In which the troops engage at Mount Vernon. The first and what is regarded the more important, is practice at known distances.

That is to say. marie a are measured off 200. SOOt fjOO, wkO and SO0 yards, each member of the company beginning his practice at the snort distance and continuing until hs can hit the marks 800 yards away. Another form of shooting Is skirmish practice. This is done on the run, each man running certain distances, falling.

on his knees and shooting at figures representing Indians at various distances. The skill required in this is great, 'In that the success of the shot depends upon the estimate the marksman makes" aa to the distance and the grading of his elevated sights accordingly. The halt la only of of fifteen seconds duration, and lu that time the marksman is expected to fire at least twice, regulating his sight as he runs. In a run at least twenty shots must be made. There are a number of the men.

however, who often make four or five shots at every halt, and some few who fire seven times In the fifteen seconds allotted to them. Another form of practice of shootins is known as the volley firing. In this an entire company shcot simultaneously, the figures and marks being at graduated distances. Very little or the volley practice is Indulged in, however, since there less to interest the marksmen in it, there being no opportunity of telling the re suit of each shot, only in a general way. The best shots out of every company are entered in the general competitive shooting, which usually takes place every year at Fort Niagara.

Out of these, in tarn, are chosen the best shots, usually one from each company, who become members of the army service, composed of ejepert sharpshooters. In Company there are a number of fine shots, but Private Patrick Fuerry ia the best, having carried off several medals for his excellent marksmanship. He la now at Fort Niagara, taking part in the competitive shooting there. Sergeant R. Q.

Dickson, of Company like his captain, is an old soldier, though not as yet a very old man. Be has served on. the frontiers, and has experienced all the hardships and vicissitudes of the frontiersman's life. The company ia anticipating a very pleasant trip to Mount Vernon. It ia a relief to the men to get away from the quiet of the Jackson barracks and out on the field.

Less military discipline is observed at Mount Vernon, and thus being allowed more liberty; it is a sort of holiday to the participants. There are perhaps few posts under Uncle Barn's control aa. orucny an a aa neat as the one Company will leave to day Each thing around the entire premisles ia neat and clean, and" each thing Is in its place. Indeed, the Jackson barracks, as seen by a reporter, wo ul furnish, an example of the. model household.
