THANK SEWING.

This old New England festival has again
passed by with all It's joys-ond with all its
sorrows too. Friends long absent, have II.
gain met under the parental roof, and hearts
oerlowing with joy and thankfulness have
again beat in happy unison--the sound of
mlrth has been heard on all sides, and mu-
sic and dancing has every where abounded
kindred hearts have entered together up-
on the untrled state of matrimony, flor it is
a day in which there is marrying and Civ
ing in mai rage,) and are now receiving the
cordial greetings and good wishes, both OF
those who bear witness TO the happiness OF
that state, and those who are ENJOYING bliss.

A distressing case came under our notice
on Tuesday. A gentleman passing, in the
upper part of the city was accosted by two
little girls, who begged of him for charity.
you can't want any thing my little girls, "
he replied, "you are too comIonably dres-
sed.p "Oh, no, sir" they answered, I'll is
for our poor mother, come with us and we
will show you" The gentleman prompted
by humane feeling highly honorable to
his heart, followed the little girls into eel
lar, where he found their mother, a respect
able woman, with six younger children IN
the utmost distress, having been totally des-
tilute OF food and fuel for more than twenty
four houis. The poor woman was from
r., in this state and was induced TO
come here by the persuasion of her husband,
who proves to be drunken, worthless .iel-
low He had abandoned her, and she had
in vain sought for employment to obtain a
livelihood There was no one in these hard
times could scarcely afford to hire help Or
bestow aims. The gentleman immediately
provided the family with money and made
arrangements to have comfortable room
hired for them al his own expense.

SALE OF LOTS IN THE TOWN OF
ED1SaR1vr0T6E


Pm Offering for sale this Town Site, the subscri-
IA bePs unhesitatingiy say, it is one Of the most
beautiful bluffs on Pearl River. The site is stu
ated in the county of Leake, on the west side of
Pearl River four miles south west Of the town OF
Carthage, the Seat Of Justice for the aforesaid
county, and six miles south of Haysville on the
Robinson Road,
In describing Pensacola, the subscribers do not
hesitate in saying that the river affords convent
ent navigation for Steamboats, from $50 to Us tons
burthen mp to this point, and the surrounding
country is unsurpassed in the Choctaw nation for
good water, healthfulness and fertility of soil In
deed we have the opinion of the most experien-
ced cotton planters that it will produce as much
cotton per acre as the far famed Madison county
lands.
AS it is an ascertained fact, from the oldest and
most intelligent settlers in the heighborhood Of
Pensacola, that its site is entirely above highwa-
ter mark, and is al all seasons of the year access-
BILE; and as it isalso clear that it is the nearest and
most convenient shipping point for all the middle
counties OF the Choctaw nation, there is therefore,
not doubt entertained, that Pensacola viii be
the place of depot for all the cotton raised in thc=a
counties; added to which, by mean of the RAIL
ROAD, which is now in progress from Vicks-
burg, on the Mississippi river, to Jackson, cur
Seat Of Government, which is situated on Pearl
4 river only SIS miles below Pensacola; those ship
ping at Pensacola will have the advantage of sem
ding their produce by a more direct route 10 New
ton, and at a cheaper rate; giving this point de-
cided advantages over every other shipping point
which can now be reached by those counties; for
we have no doubt but that a trip will be made
from Pensacola (by way Of the rail road) to New
lOrleans and back in ten days.
/ The town will be laid off in handsome styles
and will afford some beautiful Family Residences.
Terms Of saIe-'rhe lots in the town of Pen
sacola will be offered and sold to the highest bid
der; the purchaser giving bond and approved Sc
