RED RIVER RAFT.

Two gentlemen, Messrs. Vawter and
Williamson, have concluded a contract
with the Government TO clear out the
Raft in Red river, for the sum of Sea-
o00-and keep the channel open for five
years. They take one Of the snag boats
constructed and used by Capt. Shreve
who formed the plan of removing tins
raft some years ago, the Eradicator, in
part payment at $4,000. They are also
TO make such cat-oGs as may be deemed
necessary, and the amount Of compensa-
ton for this additional labor is to be de-
termined on by friends they may selec,
and persons living near where the work
is done. Fair and square" IS the word,
and If Uncle Sam don't cheat these men,
we reckon il will all 60 right.

A DMTRABLE.

We like to see newspaper continu-
ally burdened with notices of what the
editor intends to do, what new advertise
ment or subscriber he may have received
within the last week. The change of a
" head" is frequently the subject of two
or three editorial articles, and so ercesd-
ingLy interesting to readers. How very
materially is the progress of human
knowledge thereby advanced, and the
pleasure of mankind increased. Editors
with this sort of audacity, who make the
most trif1lng acts of their own triflne
lives, the subjects upon which to dilate
IN their ill-suited vocation, generally re-
ceiVe at the hands of contemporaries the
award which impudence has always OBJ
tanned, and which modest merit mioh,
IN vain aspire to. A sort of notoriety i,
IN this way obtained, which savours Of
popularity and vanity, but mol of dignity.
honest pride, or proper self-respect.

A very interesting controversy is
going on between J. NJ. Hartford in the
True Issue, and the Vicksburg Sentinel.
The most choice and refined epithets are
used by each Of the parties, notin very
complimentary way, but weshould think.

mentioned party is only justified by the
obligation to fight the enemy with his
own weapons.
