Sugar Malting in Louisiana, We lake the following extract from an nriicle in the New Orleans Della:

One of (he moat pleasing ami interesting excursions foi city folks is atour along the "coast,” as the banks of the Mississippi are called, as far up aa sugar culture extend. The plantations are now all in full blast. The planters are up to head and eara in work; in anxiety, and a thousand cares incident io this extensive and complex business. At least one third of the grinding season has already expired, and the approach of the freezing period renders it necessary that the planter should "crowd” his machinery and hands in order to sate bis crop. Everything now is wrapped up in ibis great aim. The bands fly about with locomotive celebrity; the sugar mills smoke and sweat with the travel within; (he mules trot merti’y along the various roads from the cane held to the sugar-hnure; the furnaces are kept red hot all Ibe while; the "steam-dog,” as the shrieking steam- pipe is called, barks fiercely, aa if it were the dog days; and the atmosphere, for miles on both banks of the liver, is pervaded by a delightful confectionery odor. It ts now our Louisiana harvest. Excitement and life prevail in every direction.—People are willing to do twice as much work when excited, as in the dull, customary way. Of all laborers, the oegro needs most thi3 sort of atimulent. Let a negro holloa and sing, and he wilt work twice at hard as if compelled to keep silent. Bring him in contact with and under the' influence of tho steam engine and bets inspired with extraordinary activity and energy. He prefers to work sixteen hours in the day about the sugarhouse. to twelve hours in the field. It is strange, too, that he flourishes under this severe labor.

The jeremiads of the Abolitionists, of Macaulay'and other British orators, about the deadly labor of the sugar house, are the grandest lies which ever conceived. — The negroes on our sugar plantations are the healthiest, best oared for, and happiest laborers in (he world. They long impaliemly for the arrival of season, f the only serious labor in the production ot sugarj and lament its conclusion. —Curing this season, they are always joyous, contented, and healthy. The only slave on the plantation now is iho master, the owner—who has his notes and advances to -meet—who reads (he newspapers and sees the high prices of all the .articles he consumes, and (ha low rates of hia own products—who is as sensitive to every flying cloud and changing wind as was the tenant of "Bleak House.*' He has all the care and anxiety of the Agriculturist, manufacturer, and the merchant. He is dependant on machinery on the atmosphere, on the market—nay, as the moil variable and uncertain of all, on the politics of the country, and of the world. That awful bugbear, the tariff, fixes his attention continually on Washington; the Cubs question is as full of moment to him as his cane Uof juice. An early frost looms op to hia imagination as grimly and terribly as war, pestilence, or famine. A severe b!otr,*by which hia heavy growth of cane is laid prostrate, decimates his hopes, and a tong warm spell converts his sweet juice into a tasteless liquid, from which molasses'alone can be. extracted. Such are the cares which beset the planter. Still, be has his pleasures, his prida, and his enjoyment. It is a great solace (o him to be able to compare his sugar with that of his neighbor, and to show a better grain nr color. It elevates his conseduenee amazeingly to raise his (wo and a half hogsheads to the acre, and seven hogsheads to the hand. It pleases him to find bis mill working so well and the juice boiling richly. It is no small gratification to him jo be able to snub brokers, ane to declare bis determination to hold on unlit sugars rise, which they are bound to do—a point upon which their wages a mortal war be tween the broker and planters. There, too, is the pleasure—a huge one to tbeaetive, ingeniuss, inventive, and enlerprisoing American mind—of devising new plans, applying new mechanical and chemical discoveries to -the production of his staple.

(&• Venus is supposed to have been a beautiful ami amorous princess, born in the Gteek islands. She bad three amiable maids of honor who were sisters, and these were the Graces. This it all the founda* lion given by oatme and truth; the Greek imagination create thereat. The poets first made this princes a divinity and to sublime their idea, fabled her sprung from the ocean. The leading idea that characterizes that amiable group, lire Graces, and which is implyed in their name, is gaiety ahd good humor. They are always reptesei.* ted as young and handsome, and ihe:r fa <es wear a perpetual smile. ‘I h j particular ideas conveyed to us by their names, serve only lu illrstrate their general appellation. The youngest is called Thalia, which signifies a blooming girl; the second is named Euphrosyna, which signifies a sprightly one; and the eldest, who was to keep heir sisters in order, is called Aglaia which means brilliancy, splcndorjand neatness, but at ilia 84 me time implies dignity and decorum.

Plato says that there is nothing ao delightlul as the hearing or the apeaking of the truth. For thii reason there is no conversation aoagieeable as that o( the nun of integrity, who hears without in* lenilon to betray, and speaks without any intention to deceive.

Kr It is not the fear of llo)l or the Peril that makes the sainUi but the love of Heaven.
